What Kind of Question is This?
1: Chapter 1: Interactive Live Stream Room!
What Kind of Question is This?
Paimon: (⊙_⊙)?
Aether looked at the utterly confused Paimon beside him and could only let out a resigned sigh.
He never expected that his habit of pulling all-nighters to play Genshin Impact would lead him to fall asleep in front of the screen, only to transmigrate into this world and become the Traveler, Aether.
His system activated the very moment he arrived!
As long as he obediently completed the storylines across the Seven Nations, he would be rewarded with an Invincible Domain.
As long as he stayed within a hundred-meter radius of the Domain, he would be absolutely unrivaled.
Let alone The Seven (the Seven Archons), he could even crush the Abyss Order with a single hand!
“System, where are we in the storyline right now?” [Replying to Host: Currently, the Mondstadt main storyline progress is at 0%!] It seemed this was just the very beginning of the story.
At this rate, he would probably meet Amber soon, let her take him to Mondstadt, and then defeat Stormterror.
The plot should unfold exactly like that.
After all, Aether had memorized the entire Genshin Impact storyline inside out.
As long as there was no outside interference, clearing the quests in the Seven Nations would be a walk in the park.
Once he completed the main plot, he would obtain the Invincible Domain.
Just thinking about it put him in a great mood.
Just as Aether was smiling at the thought, an anomaly suddenly occurred right in front of him.
A mechanical voice abruptly echoed in his mind.
[Interactive Q&A Live Stream Room initiating!] A transparent screen of light materialized before Aether, displaying several lines of game rules: [The Teyvat Q&A is about to begin!] [Each person can only answer a question once, and a single question can be answered a maximum of three times!] [Correct or incorrect answers will trigger corresponding rewards or punishments, including but not limited to: lifespan, wealth, authority, power, etc.!] [If a question is related to a specific involved party, that person will not be able to answer it in the Live Stream Room.
However, if someone else answers it correctly, the involved party will also receive a certain reward!] [If no one chooses to answer a question, one person will be randomly selected to provide an answer!] [The right to answer cannot be canceled or transferred!] Immediately after, everyone across the continent of Teyvat was forcibly pulled into the Live Stream Room.
[Zhongli has joined the live stream room!] [Ei has joined the live stream room!] [Nahida has joined the live stream room!] [Venti has joined the live stream room!] [Paimon has joined the live stream room!] [Diluc has joined the live stream room!] [Nilou has joined the live stream room!] [Ningguang has joined the live stream room!] [Keqing has joined the live stream room!] [Kamisato Ayaka has joined the live stream room!] [Arataki Itto has joined the live stream room!] [Hu Tao has joined the live stream room!] [Sayu has joined the live stream room!] [Ganyu has joined the live stream room!] [Cloud Retainer has joined the live stream room!] [Qiqi has joined the live stream room!] [Kaeya has joined the live stream room!] [Mona has joined the live stream room!] [Xiangling has joined the live stream room!] [Fischl has joined the live stream room!] [Scaramouche has joined the live stream room!] … Ningguang: “Is this what they call a live stream room?” Rosaria: “I see.
We can get rewards just by answering questions?
The rules are simple enough to understand.” Ei: “What kind of sorcery is this?
How are my thoughts appearing as text on this screen?” Cloud Retainer: “To think this entity could forcefully drag one into this live stream room.
What formidable power!” Nahida: “What a fascinating device.
Even I cannot analyze how this system operates.” Venti: “Ehe, so what’s the situation now?” Diluc: “That’s not what you should be worrying about.
So, when exactly are you going to pay off your wine tab?” Venti: “Ahem, I’ll pay it next time!” Zhongli: “Is Director Hu Tao here?
I forgot to bring my Mora.
If you see this message, please dispatch the staff from the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor to come and help me settle the bill.” Hu Tao: “Relax, Mr.
Zhongli!
Since there are so many people here right now, I’ve got to take this chance to do some promotion!
Listen up, everyone!
The Wangsheng Funeral Parlor is currently holding a massive sale!
Buy 1 Get 1 Free, and half off on the second tombstone!
Custom-made with personalized service!
Everyone, hurry up and sign up!” Arataki Itto: “Bwahaha!
I never expected to find such a cheap deal here!
Boss, put me down for one right away!” Yanfei: “Uh, bro, are you sure you want that?
That’s a funeral service for the dead, you know!” Arataki Itto: “Huh?
What the heck?!
A funeral service?!
Hey, Boss Hu Tao, I don’t need this kind of service yet!” Kujou Sara: “It’s fine, just give him one.
It seems he’ll be needing that kind of service very soon anyway.” Hu Tao: “Hehe, we’ve got a customer already!” Dori: “Wow, there’s a promotional method like this?
What a brilliant idea.
I need to take notes!” … This sudden, absurd spectacle left Aether and Paimon rooted to the spot in sheer disbelief.
Paimon scratched her head.
“What is this?
Why did this screen suddenly pop up in front of us?” Although Aether was a transmigrator from another world, he had absolutely no clue what this thing was.
Sure, he knew the concept of a live stream room.
But what was the meaning of an ‘Interactive Q&A’ in the world of Teyvat?
A sudden bad feeling washed over Aether.
He immediately asked his system, “System, is this your doing?” [Replying to Host: It’s not me!] “Are you serious?” [Replying to Host: Truly!] Even though Aether’s face was still full of suspicion, since the system had firmly denied it, there was nothing more he could do.
He decided to just monitor the situation in the live stream room for now.
Not long after, a video started playing on the light screen.
In the video, two shooting stars were seen tearing through Teyvat’s night sky, streaking across the horizon.
When the two stars arrived above Celestia, they stopped and transformed into two human figures.
Aether and Lumine looked up.
They saw the void above them suddenly fracture.
A pair of slender, fair legs slowly stepped out of the emptiness, followed by the appearance of a mysterious woman who was incredibly elegant yet deeply intimidating.
With every step she took, the empty sky automatically formed dark red cubic platforms for her to tread on.
The woman had long, fluttering white hair, and a gaze filled with absolute indifference.
She floated in the air, looking down at the two people below her haughtily.
“Outlanders, your journey ends here!” “The Sustainer of Heavenly Principles, here to put an end to the arrogation of mankind!” Immediately after, the Sustainer attacked the two of them.
After a fierce battle that shook the heavens, Aether and Lumine were ultimately and utterly defeated by the entity’s overwhelming power.
In the end, both of them were sealed.
The video suddenly paused at this exact moment.
A new question appeared in the middle of the screen: [Question: In the future, what exactly is the relationship between the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles and the involved party, Traveler Aether?] [A.
Sworn Enemies!] [B.
Lovers!] [C.
Family Members!] [D.
Husband and Wife!] [The answering session will begin in 30 seconds!] Seeing the question, Aether’s jaw almost dropped to the floor.
He was completely dumbfounded.
The involved party?
That meant him?!
What the heck was this future relationship with the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles?!
Besides, Option A still sounded perfectly reasonable and normal.
But what in the world were those next three options?!
As far as he could remember, there was absolutely never any plot this insane in the original Genshin Impact storyline!
