Little Ayaka moved a small stool and sat quietly beside Makoto.
She looked up at the moon outside the window, gently swinging her little feet.
Even doing nothing, just having Brother Makoto beside her felt wonderful.
But this wonderful feeling wouldn't last long; Brother Makoto and the others were leaving Inazuma tomorrow.
Thinking this, Little Ayaka felt a little sad again.
She used to always look forward to the new day arriving quickly.
Because whenever a new day came, it meant shortening her time with Brother Makoto.
But now, she wished time would move slower, even slower.
That way, she could spend more time with Brother Makoto.
Makoto also noticed Little Ayaka's reluctance to part.
In response, he reached out and ruffled Little Turtle's head, softly saying, "Little One, don't be so sad. I'll come to Inazuma to visit you more often in the future."
Makoto paused, then continued, "Once you finish your lessons, I'll take you on a trip, how about that?"
Hearing Makoto's promise, Little Ayaka's eyes lit up.
"Brother Makoto will take Ayaka on a trip? Really?"
"Ayaka... wants to see other countries."
Looking at the innocent Little Ayaka, Makoto smiled and nodded.
"Of course it's true. I'll take you to other countries' festivals then."
"For example, Mondstadt's Windblume Festival, the Featherball Festival... Speaking of which, the Windblume Festival should be approaching, it should be in a while."
"How about this, you can focus on your studies during this time, and then I'll take you to Mondstadt's Windblume Festival."
When Makoto first got into the game, it was already the Inazuma version, and he regrettably missed Mondstadt's Windblume Festival.
This time, he naturally wouldn't miss it again.
Although Makoto was not familiar with the city of Mondstadt, fortunately, he had an acquaintance, Venti.
He could ask Venti to be the guide for Mondstadt then.
He just wondered if that guy was reliable.
"Okay ~"
Hearing Makoto's promise, Little Ayaka nodded obediently.
"Ayaka will study hard, and then wait for Brother Makoto to pick her up!"
"Then it's settled, let's pinky promise ~"
...
Time passed, and eventually, Little Ayaka fell asleep in Makoto's arms.
As if afraid of waking up and not seeing Makoto, the Little One, even in her sleep, held onto Makoto's arm tightly, not letting go.
Faced with this clingy Little One, Makoto let her be.
Makoto carefully stood up, without waking the sleeping Ayaka.
Immediately after, Makoto looked at the other Little Ones, signaling that it was time for everyone to go back and rest.
As for Ganyu and Xiao's group, Makoto had arranged accommodation for them long ago, a lodging inn for them to rest.
Venti noticed Makoto's movement, and he also stood up and said, "Mr. Faxun is leaving? Let me see you off."
"Perfect, I also want to get some fresh air; I drank quite a bit of wine just now."
Makoto did not refuse Venti's kind offer.
If Venti used his Anemo element, he could send the Little Ones to the Kamisato Family earlier.
As for why he wasn't calling Dvalin...
Because Dvalin was sulking and ignoring Venti's lyre music.
Venti raised his hand, and a brilliant green Anemo element glow quickly lit up beneath his feet.
The next second, a wind current formed beneath his feet.
This wind current was gentle and warm, capable of safely delivering everyone to their destination.
It was the Little Ones' first time standing on a wind current, so they were inevitably a bit nervous.
But they quickly got used to the feeling of flying.
In the blink of an eye, they were able to move freely using the wind current.
With Venti's help, everyone could fly as they pleased.
Little Qiqi was a bit afraid of heights, muttering, "No fear, no fear..."
Seeing Little Qiqi's nervous tone, Makoto also squatted down and carried Qiqi on his back.
Under the moonlight, a group of people flew towards the Shirasagi Himegimi Kamisato Family.
The Kamisato Family is located at the foot of Mt. Yougou, with few surrounding buildings, making it quiet and peaceful.
Venti said with some concern, "It's so late, will there be monsters in the mountains?"
"If monsters attack, Mr. Faxun will protect me, right? He definitely will, right?"
Looking at Venti, who was hiding behind him, Makoto hesitated to speak.
This guy,
Is he really one of the Seven Archons?
Venti's true strength remained a mystery to this day.
Makoto also didn't know how strong or weak Venti was.
Because this guy was always slacking off, never showing his power.
Thinking of this, Makoto curiously asked, "Venti, how do you and Morax compare in strength?"
He used Morax as a comparison to directly assess Venti's strength.
Hearing this question, Venti was first stunned, clearly not expecting Makoto to ask such a question.
But he still thought about it very seriously.
A moment later, Venti stroked his chin and gave an objective answer: "If we really have to compare, Mr. Morax and I... it's a four-six split."
Hearing this answer, Makoto was a little surprised.
One must know that Morax was known as the God of War, and it was no exaggeration to say he was the combat ceiling on the continent of Teyvat.
And for Venti to be able to go four-six with Morax, that was already very impressive.
Actually, upon closer thought, one could guess that Venti was not simple.
An ordinary person could not blow away Mondstadt's snow and turn steep mountains into plains.
More importantly, only Morax and Venti of the original Seven Archons were still alive; the other five Archons had already been replaced.
This alone proved that Venti was not weak at all.
For a moment, Makoto couldn't help but exclaim, "Venti, so you've always been hiding your true strength."
"Mr. Faxun, don't underestimate me!"
Hearing Makoto's praise, Venti's face was full of pride.
"Within four minutes, Mr. Morax can at most knock me flying six times; it's absolutely impossible to exceed that number, I can guarantee that."
Makoto:???
So, that's what you meant by four-six??
He can knock you flying six times in four minutes?
