The people in the Live Stream Room were deeply shaken as they witnessed that execution scene.
Zhongli: “This system can actually forcibly strip away a power that has already merged with its user.
What an overwhelmingly formidable power.” Ei: “I can’t even perceive how this stream room system executed its punishment.
The power was seized in the blink of an eye.
An entity like this…
its power has far surpassed those of us who are called gods!” Arataki Itto: “Hey, Fatui guy!
You were the one who said the answer was definitely A, but why did you choose D?!
Are you trying to be funny on purpose?
If only you had listened to me from the start and chosen A, you definitely would’ve gotten it right!” Kaeya: “Actually, we can’t entirely blame the Lord Harbinger’s choice.
After all, some people in Mondstadt do indeed call Master Jean the Lion of the South.” Amber: “That’s true.
Master Jean has indeed inherited that honorary title!” Lisa: “Everyone in Mondstadt surely knows about that.” Albedo: “My guess is, this Lord Harbinger was actually already certain of his answer, and he intentionally tricked all of you in the comment section into choosing A.
Because according to the rules, if the first person answers incorrectly, the chance to answer will be drawn again.
By tricking you into giving the wrong answer, his chances of being chosen again would become much higher.” Ningguang: “Heh, what a pity your clever scheme ended up backfiring on you.
You originally intended to trick others, but unexpectedly, the answer you were so confident in turned out to be wrong.” Tartaglia: “Hahaha, don’t be too cynical towards me.
Isn’t it perfectly normal to use a little trickery to monopolize the rewards from the live stream room?
Besides, in Snezhnaya, where I’m from…
if you’re too naive, you’ll only end up dying a foolish death.” Kamisato Ayato: “Although your behavior is quite disgraceful, I can’t say I disagree with your principles.” La Signora: “Even though you managed to snag the first turn, you still answered incorrectly, and now you’ve even lost your combat power.
I’d say you’re completely useless as a Harbinger now.
You might as well just resign!” Tartaglia: “Hahaha!
Do you think my strength relies solely on the Foul Legacy?
Besides, I wonder which Harbinger was so terrified seeing the Traveler’s power earlier that she immediately ran away with her tail between her legs to beg for reinforcements from Her Majesty the Tsaritsa?
I won’t name any names, so you’d better reflect on yourself!” La Signora: “You bastard!
Are you asking for a death wish?!” Venti: “Ehe~ My, my.
Who would have thought the Fatui higher-ups, who always look so united, actually harbor so much pent-up anger towards each other!” Keqing: “We don’t have the free time to watch you Fatui members bicker.
Finding the correct answer is the most important thing right now.
I don’t think a single one of us here wants to answer incorrectly and receive a terrifying punishment from the system, right?” Ganyu: “That’s true.
As long as we discuss the answer together beforehand, the next scramble to answer will purely depend on hand speed and luck.
Besides, the punishments handed out by the system look quite terrifying.” Yae Miko: “Since option D has been eliminated, there are only three options left.
If two more people answer incorrectly, the incredible reward from this question might be forfeited.” Nahida: “Indeed.
Even though I don’t know what the reward is this time, considering the first reward was something that could save a person’s life in an instant…
I don’t think anyone wants to miss out on a reward that good.” Baizhu: “Very reasonable.
In that case, let’s analyze the remaining options.
First of all, I think this question has to be answered from the perspective of Traveler Aether and Master Jean.
That Harbinger answered purely from the perspective of public logic, right?” Tartaglia: “Yeah, I did answer it based on common facts.
But I completely didn’t expect the answer to be wrong.” Baizhu: “Exactly.
That means we can’t solve this puzzle using common logic.
We have to think entirely from the perspective of the romance between the Traveler and Master Jean.” Arataki Itto: “What’s there left to think about?!
The answer is definitely A, Master Jean!
A simple yet firm nickname, there’s no way it can be wrong!” Kaedehara Kazuha: “That answer is indeed very plausible.
Perhaps the Traveler calls her by the same title as everyone else.” Kamisato Ayaka: “However, that might not necessarily be true.
If I were in Master Jean’s position and was in a romantic relationship with the Traveler, I definitely wouldn’t want him to call me by such a formal title.
I would much rather be called by a more meaningful pet name.” Kamisato Ayato: “My sister?” Nilou: “That’s true.
We might indeed have to think about it from the perspective of a woman’s feelings.” Collei: “Ugh…
I’ve never been in love before.
This is too hard, my head can’t comprehend it!” Sangonomiya Kokomi: “If I were the Traveler’s girlfriend, then I don’t think I would want a nickname that’s too stiff and serious.
I would prefer a special nickname that is only known by the two of us.” Barbara: “But if I were the Traveler’s girlfriend, I wouldn’t like it if he called me by an inappropriate or ridiculous nickname.” Venti: “If I were the Traveler’s girlfriend, I think option B is pretty good!
He can call me Venti the Thick Butt!
Ehe~” Kaeya: “Umm…
Venti, as far as I remember, you’re a guy, right?” Venti: “Ehe~” Albedo: “Based on my analysis, answers A and C are the probabilities closest to being correct.” Klee: “That’s right!
Big Sister Jean only likes it when we all call her Master Jean, not Lion of the South or Dandelion Knight!” While everyone was fiercely debating, a message popped up again from the Live Stream Room.
[The thinking time is over, the Q&A session will begin shortly!] Instantly, all the viewers started brutally mashing the answer buttons.
[Congratulations to participant Kuki Shinobu for successfully securing the chance to answer!] [Participant, please provide your answer!] Kuki Shinobu: “I didn’t expect that I’d be the one who managed to get it.” Shinobu felt that if she were in Master Jean’s position, she might just want to be called by a normal nickname by the Traveler.
Moreover, Boss Itto had been loudly advocating for this option all along.
Her boss’s intuition was sometimes insanely accurate.
“In that case…
I choose A, Master Jean!” [Incorrect Answer!] [Punishment: Starting from this moment, put on a Shrine Maiden uniform and head to the Grand Narukami Shrine on Mt.
Yougou.
Begin your daily routine working as a Shrine Maiden there until the Traveler arrives in Inazuma!] Upon hearing the punishment, Kuki Shinobu’s entire body suddenly went numb.
The thing she hated most in the world was routine work!
Back then, she absolutely hated her job as a Shrine Maiden because that restrictive routine felt like a prison, so she decided to quit.
Then, in pursuit of freedom, she joined the Arataki Gang.
And now?
This system was actually forcing her to go back and work serving the Grand Narukami Shrine as a Shrine Maiden?!
This punishment was essentially a slow death for her!
“Does that mean…
if the Traveler decides not to come to Inazuma and meet me, then I’ll have to keep working as a Shrine Maiden at the Narukami Shrine for the rest of my life?!” [Yes!] Kuki Shinobu felt like she was going insane.
She immediately sent a barrage of messages in the Live Stream Room, intending to summon the Traveler to come immediately and set her free.
Kuki Shinobu: “Traveler!
Please, can you come to Inazuma right now?!” Yae Miko: “Ara, ara~ Isn’t this our little runaway Shrine Maiden, Kuki Shinobu?” Kuki Shinobu: “I beg you, Traveler, hurry up and come to Inazuma and save me!
Are you listening?!
Give me an answer!” Yae Miko: “It’s useless for you to scream.
The Traveler is in mute mode right now, he can’t reply to you.
But really, I didn’t expect you’d be coming back to be a Shrine Maiden at my shrine.
I…
really like you, you know.” Kuki Shinobu: “Uuuu…
Noooo!
I don’t want to be a Shrine Maiden again!
I don’t want to do routine work!” Tartaglia: “That’s the only punishment?
Why do I feel like my punishment is far more severe and agonizing than yours!” Kuki Shinobu: “You’re only punished by not being able to use your powers for a month!
If the Traveler doesn’t come see me in Inazuma, I have to keep working as a Shrine Maiden until I die!
Just think about it, who’s suffering more?!” Tartaglia: “Oh…
that makes sense.
In that case, you have my condolences.
It turns out your fate is much worse than mine.”
