I'm a male god in Liyue

"According to the rules, that was just a test for her. From now on, I will still be her assistant."

"You don't need to be so serious. You can smile more."

"..."

"Later, you and your cousin got into another fight?"

"Yes, Mr. Xia is very capable; I am no match for him."

“Hey, what Mr. Xia? Ying and I already call him cousin, you can call him cousin too.”

"..."

Xia Zhen chatted with the general for a while, then switched to Shadow to control his body.

"I'm stuffed."

"Okay, sister, then you can continue with your work."

Ying thoughtfully tidied up the bowls and casserole, and also took the casserole she had brought over the night before.

She took a closer look and found that the casserole was now empty, which meant that her sister really liked the sukiyaki she made, which was why she ate it all.

Yay! I'll make another one tonight and bring it over for my sister to enjoy!

"I'm leaving now, sister."

"Ah."

When she reached the door, Ying stopped.

"By the way, sister, are you coming to the shrine for lunch today? The Dragon King Barbatos is here."

"Oh, they're all old acquaintances, so I won't come. I still have a lot of documents to review here."

"Oh, okay. My cousin said he's going to make 'God Jumps Over the Wall,' and I..."

"Cough cough cough..."

"elder sister?"

"There's no rush to look at the documents right now. I've been thinking about it. Although Barbatos and the Dragon King are old acquaintances, Barbatos specially treated us to drinks when we went to Mondstadt a few days ago. Now that we're in Inazuma, as the host, I should be there to avoid being impolite."

"Sister is right!"

"Okay, you go ahead first. I'll come over by myself around noon."

"Good sister!"

Shadow closed the door to the room and left the castle tower.

Xia Zhen was alone in her room, her gaze fixed on the doorway, a thoughtful expression on her face.

General, her condition...

It doesn't seem to be as it appears on the surface...

Narukami Taisha Shrine.

Yesterday I went to Inatsuma Castle with everyone, and today I had some free time, so Hana-sanri wandered around the shrine by herself.

Wherever she goes, Hana Sanri will pause for a moment.

This is the place that is most deeply etched in [Fox Palace]'s memory, and also the place that is most familiar to her.

But this familiarity is tinged with a strong sense of unfamiliarity.

This is not her home.

Hana Sanri couldn't quite explain what she was feeling at that moment.

She squatted alone in the corner, reaching out to gently stroke the bricks etched by time, and finally sighed softly.

Hana Sanri recalled what Mr. Natsu had said to her during the massage the night before.

Fireworks...

Even if it's just for that one moment of dazzling brilliance, I'd be willing to do it without hesitation...

The look in her eyes gradually hardened.

Afterwards, Hana Sanri arrived in front of the shrine, found Natsume by the main hall, and walked towards him.

"Mr. Xia."

"It's Hana Sanri."

Hana Sanli hesitated for a moment, then mustered her courage and leaned closer to him, saying, "Mr. Xia, there's something I'd like to tell you."

Xia Zhi nodded: "Go ahead and say it."

Hana Sanri looked at him and whispered, "Nana told me about magical girls, and I want to become a magical girl too. Do you think I have a chance?"

Xia Zhi tilted her head and smiled, saying, "Yes, I think you'd be quite suited to be a magical girl."

"really?"

"Ah."

"Then... how can I become a magical girl?"

"You need to sign a contract with me."

"Will you become my dependent?"

"You don't necessarily have to become a member of the Familia. Ordinary believers are fine too, but the transformation item will charge more slowly."

"A transformation item? Is it Qiqi's pendant?"

"Yes, but the form isn't fixed. For example, Fischl's transformation item is the black eye mask she wears. Do you have any favorite accessories? If so, you can give them to me, and I'll turn them into your own exclusive transformation item. If not, that's okay too; I'll design one for you."

"A favorite accessory..."

Hana Sanri lowered her head and thought for a moment before taking out the white fox mask she had always worn.

"Mr. Xia, is this alright?"

"It's a mask, that's interesting, that's good."

"Then it's up to you."

Hana Sanri handed over the mask with both hands.

Xia Zhi reached out and caught it.

"Don't worry, it should be finished by tomorrow, and I'll return it to you then."

"Ok."

Xia Zhi fiddled with the fox mask in his hand for a moment, then put it away and turned to ask.

"By the way, which element do you prefer?"

"Huh? Is there still a choice?"

"Of course, in addition to the seven elemental types native to Teyvat, I also offer the blessings of light and dark."

Hana Sanri was silent for a moment, then spoke softly.

"If possible, please grant me the power of lightning."

"Lightning element... I understand, as you wish."

Xia Zhi nodded and agreed.

Hana-san is a reincarnation of the memories of [Kokusai-gu]. As a native of Inatsume, she is indeed more inclined to pursue the power of lightning.

This is similar to Noelle's yearning for the power of the wind.

As noon approached, Xia Zhi went to the kitchen to start cooking.

Ying followed him over and stood beside the stove, watching intently.

"Did your sister eat the seafood congee this morning?"

"have eaten."

“I’ve made porridge at home many times in the morning before, but this is the first time I’ve added slime to it. I found that it is indeed very suitable to add to porridge, and it makes the texture much smoother.”

"Yes, my sister also said it's delicious and she likes it very much."

"Have you learned how to make it?"

"Learned."

"Then you can cook porridge for your sister tomorrow morning."

"it is good!"

As Xia Zhi spoke, he set up a clay pot and put some water and rice into it.

Ying, watching from the side, looked on with some curiosity and asked, "Are you making porridge?"

"Yes."
