Genshin Impact: Life Simulator

"Let's have a sparring match. I might be able to recall more things based on Mr. Nathan's power?"

Before Tartaglia could finish speaking, the battle intent in his eyes was already unconcealed.

His body was tense, ready to spring into action.

He might strike at Nathan in the next second.

"Wait a moment, Childe. This is a public place—we can't possibly fight here!"

Nathan waved his hands, stopping Tartaglia's attempt to engage in combat.

This was Third-Round Knockout, where Liyue citizens streamed in endlessly in the morning to listen to stories.

If they fought here, given Tartaglia's destructive power from the game, everyone present would likely get caught up in it.

"Well... we could just chase everyone away!!!"

Tartaglia looked around, seeming genuinely prepared to drive away the passersby.

"You're really strange. Nathan already said it's not convenient, yet you keep persisting."

At this point, Hu Tao, who had been quiet for a while, spoke up angrily.

"I think we should have breakfast first!"

Seeing the shopkeeper bringing Liyue's special breakfast dishes to the table, Nathan interrupted the arguing pair.

"Hmph, I'll let you off this time!"

Hu Tao shot Tartaglia a fierce glare before returning to her embrace.

"Well... alright. Since Mr. Nathan and I are fated to meet, I'll cover today's expenses."

Tartaglia patted his chest, making what seemed like a sucker's declaration.

He was used to being the sucker anyway, so one more time wouldn't matter.

But just as things were settling down, a voice Nathan dreaded most rang out.

"We found Nathan and the others!"

"They're really here!"

"You can't escape!"

"Kill!!!"

Ningguang, Keqing, Ganyu, and Shenhe—all four women surrounded Nathan's position.

"Everyone calm down, please calm down. Especially you, Shenhe, stop with all the killing talk!!!"

Nathan fought back a headache as he addressed the four approaching beauties.

Their collective resentment seemed ready to pierce through Liyue's clouds.

"Nathan, you made us search quite desperately."

Ningguang's eyes narrowed to slits, her presence as one of the Liyue Qixing fully manifested.

The pressure was so intense that the surrounding diners instantly fell silent.

"Nathan, you can't let that bad woman take you away!"

Keqing similarly pouted, glaring angrily at Hu Tao beside him.

"Haha, Keqing, you're all so amazing to have found us so quickly."

Hu Tao hid behind Nathan, wearing an innocent smile.

"Director Hu, since you've already made your move on Nathan, you've become an enemy to all of us."

Only Ganyu's emotions remained stable, but she was the most ruthless, turning Hu Tao into everyone's target with a single sentence.

"Hmph, this Director isn't afraid of any of you!"

Hu Tao responded seriously. Since everyone was after Nathan, they would clash eventually.

Capturing her love interest early was the correct choice.

"You're the enemy who kidnapped Nathan. I'll slaughter you..."

As for Shenhe, the last one, her emotions were the most severe.

A pale white light began emanating from her palm, her yandere personality on full display.

"Shenhe, please mind the surroundings! Don't fight in public!"

Nathan hurriedly tried the same reasoning he'd used with Tartaglia earlier.

But this time, it failed to stop the already darkened Shenhe.

The light in her hand grew stronger, seemingly ready to unleash an elemental attack on Hu Tao.

"Hey... Ganyu, Ningguang, there are so many people here. You can't let Shenhe attack!"

His pleading gaze turned to the two people most likely to resolve the yandere situation.

However, Ningguang first smiled gently, then addressed the surrounding Liyue citizens.

"This area is now requisitioned by the Liyue Qixing. Everyone please temporarily evacuate."

With Ningguang's permission, the citizens who had been suppressed by the tension instantly chose to leave this troublesome place.

"Lady Ningguang, what about my small shop?"

The owner of Third-Round Knockout came forward, seemingly concerned about the furniture and decorations.

"Don't worry, I'll compensate for any damages!"

"Well, since Lady Ningguang has given her word, please proceed as you wish!"

The tavern owner, having received this promise, immediately slipped away.

No joke—with the current sword-drawing atmosphere, he still wanted to live.

As for the storyteller at the front, he had already fled at the very beginning.

The entire tavern now contained only Nathan's group.

"Sister Shenhe, now you can attack without worry..."

With Ningguang's intervention, Ganyu also clapped her hands and said with a smile.

"Wait a minute, you're really serious about this!!!"

Nathan finally realized that Ningguang and Ganyu were actually fanning the flames.

Though this was normal—after all, Hu Tao had taken Nathan away right in front of them.

Having Shenhe attack was their way of teaching her a harsh lesson.

After receiving Ganyu's permission, Shenhe approached Nathan step by step.

"Click-click-click!"

The sound of her heels striking the ground was like a countdown to battle.

What to do? The two ladies couldn't be relied upon, so Nathan had to seek new allies.

Besides these four women united in their grudge, only Zhongli and Tartaglia remained.

"Zhongli, are you really going to just watch again?"

Finally, he turned his gaze to Zhongli, who was enjoying the show from the side.

The Geo Archon took a sip of clear tea, watching the situation unfold with great interest.

"From a rational perspective, I'm quite interested in seeing what happens next!!!"

"But Zhongli, isn't Hu Tao the Director of your Wangsheng Funeral Parlor? How can you abandon her in her time of need?"

Nathan urgently said again—was he really going to ignore even his own employee?

"Don't worry, Director Hu's strength is more than enough to handle this!"

Zhongli was determined to watch the drama unfold and completely ignored Nathan's plea.

"This is Liyue Harbor, Zhongli! Aren't you worried they'll destroy it?"

Nathan spoke up, trying to use Liyue Harbor as his final argument.

Their conversation was like a riddle, comprehensible only to Nathan and Zhongli.

"It's fine, I trust Ningguang and the others will show restraint."

He shook his head helplessly. True, Ningguang showed restraint, but she wasn't the one fighting.

Hu Tao already had a trouble-making personality, and when combined with the fully darkened yandere Shenhe...

Letting these two clash would be like a comet hitting Earth.

Never mind Liyue Harbor—at least this area beneath their feet would definitely experience both ice and fire.
