Genshin Impact: One Soul in Two Bodies
Chapter 42 42: I've Gotten Stronger
"This mission of yours truly doesn't stop."
Looking at the newly appeared mission, Wendy couldn't help but complain.
But despite her words, she was actually in a good mood.
After all, this mission was much clearer than the last, not as confusing as the newbie mission.
More importantly, completing this mission directly increased her progress bar by 20%, which she hadn't expected.
The newbie mission only added 1%, after all.
Now, the progress bar already showed 21%.
This meant that with just 79% more progress, she could unlock her next gacha pull.
"[If the Host has no other questions, this system will now enter shutdown mode. We hope the Host continues to strive!]"
Just as Wendy was thinking about the gacha progress bar, the system, as usual, made its pre-shutdown inquiry.
"[Goodbye.]"
Because the progress bar had increased significantly this time and Kaito had also changed, Wendy, in a good mood, bid the system goodbye for a rare change.
"[Goodbye, Host.]"
After saying this, the system entered shutdown mode.
"Alright... time to go back..."
After the system shut down, Wendy swiftly vanished from her spot.
She knew Zhongli would handle the rest.
After all, Zhongli would never neglect his own wallet.
"Miss Wendy has left..."
Emerging from the corner, Zhongli gazed thoughtfully in the direction of Mondstadt.
He had originally thought Wendy would say something to him, but she didn't.
Furthermore, he had actually wanted to observe Wendy's combat, but Childe was instantly defeated, so he didn't see anything meaningful at all.
"Is this what Miss Wendy wanted?"
Shifting his gaze back to Childe lying on the ground, Zhongli still didn't understand what Wendy was trying to do.
Nevertheless, at least Miss Wendy hadn't used her immense power to do anything outrageous, which was clearly a good thing.
Of course, for Childe, it wasn't so good.
"He's alright... not dead..."
After examining Childe's condition, Zhongli came to this conclusion.
Next, he would have to have someone take him back to their Fatui stronghold, as leaving him lying there indefinitely wasn't an option.
Afterwards, Zhongli's figure also vanished from the spot.
-------------------------------------
Mondstadt.
"It seems I now have some of Wendy's abilities... and my Honkai Adaptability should have increased too..."
Extending his hand as if holding something invisible, Kaito stood in the living room, muttering to himself, staring at his open palm.
Although at first glance there was nothing in Kaito's open palm, a stream of air was actually swirling within it.
Immediately after the first official mission was completed, Kaito in Mondstadt also underwent some changes.
Just as the system had said before, completing missions grants some abilities from character cards and Honkai Adaptability. Now Kaito could also slightly control air currents, though there was still a significant gap compared to Wendy.
"It's late, I'll just try it here..."
Thinking this suddenly, Kaito immediately waved his hand towards the door, and an invisible, crescent-shaped current of air swiftly rushed towards it.
Just then, the door opened, and the person who walked in also extended a hand and seemingly grabbed something in the air.
"Indeed, I'm still very weak in Wendy's eyes, but at least I'm stronger than before."
Looking at Wendy who had walked in, Kaito muttered to himself again, then he walked towards the bedroom, while Wendy behind him turned off the living room light.
It's quite late now, time to sleep.
"And tomorrow... wait..."
"Venti invited me to eat tomorrow..."
Just as he sat on the bed, Kaito suddenly remembered that Venti had invited him to eat tomorrow.
He had originally planned to go outside the city with Wendy tomorrow for a day to see if they could meet Lumine, as the next mission was related to Lumine.
"I'll go to Angel's Share at noon... Wendy can just stay outside..."
"And... I'll tell Venti about borrowing his Anemo Archon identity then..."
After some thought, Kaito made these arrangements.
The next day.
Morning.
"I wonder if I'll run into Amber..."
Walking with Wendy on the way to the city gate, Kaito couldn't help but think this.
However, as the two reached the city gate, Amber's figure did not appear in Kaito's sight.
"Looks like she's already gone out..."
Continuing to walk outside the city, Kaito guessed that Amber was already on a mission outside the city at this time.
But just as he was thinking this, Amber's voice rang out from behind.
"Kaito."
"So she hadn't left yet..."
Stopping and turning around, Kaito waved at Amber behind him.
"You two are quite early too."
Walking quickly over, Amber also waved at them both.
"Why are you standing so far away? Are you afraid I'll hit you, or afraid Kaito will eat you?"
Looking at Amber, who was deliberately keeping a distance from herself and Kaito, Wendy seemed a little annoyed as she said this.
"Uh..."
Amber was a bit embarrassed, not expecting Wendy to say that.
She had originally thought it would be better to maintain some distance, but it turned out Wendy didn't care about such things.
Although it had all been her own misunderstanding before, she still felt it was better to keep some distance from Kaito when in Wendy's presence.
"You didn't bully her, did you, Kaito?"
Just as Amber was stunned, Wendy turned to Kaito beside her and said.
"No, no, Kaito didn't bully me."
Before Kaito could say anything, Amber, who had walked over, quickly explained on his behalf.
"That's right, Wendy, don't think nonsense, how could I bully Amber?"
At this moment, Kaito seemed to open his mouth to explain himself.
"Alright, we should cross through the Whispering Woods to Starfell Valley."
Seeing that it was time, Wendy stated where she and Kaito were going today, and then Kaito added: "Amber, where are you heading?"
"What a coincidence, that's exactly where I'm going today too."
Amber was a little surprised that Kaito and she were going to the same place.
"Amber is also going to Starfell Valley..."
"Could today be the start of the main storyline?"
As soon as he heard that Amber was also heading to Starfell Valley, Kaito immediately thought of the initial plot in the game.
