Genshin Impact: One Soul in Two Bodies

Chapter 24: "But I'm a Girl."



"I only did that because I was bored; don't overthink it."

After hearing Amber's explanation for why she thought that, Wendy finally understood.

However, she obviously couldn't reveal the true purpose of those actions, so she could only make the excuse that she was bored.

After all, no matter what, she couldn't very well say she was trying to complete a broken system's task, could she?

"Bored, that's why you did it?" Looking at Wendy before her, Amber still didn't quite believe what she said.

No matter how she thought about it, Wendy's previous actions didn't seem like mere boredom.

However, she had originally wanted to persuade Wendy not to possess Kaito in such an extreme way, but Wendy simply wouldn't admit to such a thing, leaving Amber no chance to say what she had prepared.

It seems she still doesn't believe me...

What to do...

Facing Amber, whose face still showed suspicion, Wendy was truly getting tired of explaining.

But she also understood that if this problem wasn't resolved, her task would be very difficult.

Keep in mind, this was just the Newbie Task.

Oh, right... I can let Kaito explain to her...

Suddenly thinking of this method, Wendy, who had almost given up on a solution, instantly perked up.

Since she didn't believe Wendy's words, then let Kaito, the source of this matter, handle it.

Although they were actually the same person, from Amber's perspective, these were two separate individuals, and one of them was a direct party involved.

"How about this, Amber? Since you don't believe what I'm saying, why don't you go ask Kaito yourself if I've ever behaved that way? And I'll just watch from a distance; I won't appear before him with you."

"Go ask Kaito myself? But that doesn't change what you might think..."

In fact, Amber was already starting to believe Wendy's words, just not entirely.

"Never mind what I think; just go ask Kaito and see how he answers. You're not the only girl he's met."

Seeing that she had offered Amber a solution, yet Amber still thought that way, Wendy felt helpless.

Regardless, she had to find a way to make her ask Kaito about this.

If Amber still wouldn't ask, then she would have no choice but to have Kaito seek out Amber.

Did I really misunderstand?

Seeing Wendy so resolute, Amber couldn't help but think this.

"Alright, then I'll go ask him, but where is he right now..."

"At this time, he's either in his rental house or eating, so let's go into the city to find him first."

Knowing what Amber wanted to say, Wendy spoke before she could finish.

In fact, Kaito was currently eating at Angel's Share, but having just returned from outside, she wouldn't logically know that, so she could only say she needed to find out where Kaito was first.

"Okay." Thinking it over, Amber also nodded.

Afterward, the two walked towards the city.

And upon reaching the city gate, Wendy said, "Let's check Angel's Share first. If he's not there, then we'll look for him at his rental house."

-------------------------------------

Angel's Share.

Amber is coming...

Should I act very surprised and say that no such thing happened...

Having just finished a sip of apple wine, Kaito, who was eating alone at Angel's Share, was pondering how best to answer Amber next.

"Welcome—"

Just as he was thinking, Kaito heard the bartender's welcoming voice. Then he saw Amber's figure at the entrance.

She's here...

Swallowing what was in his mouth, Kaito was about to put on a show.

"Amber, are you here to eat too?"

Pretending he had just noticed Amber, Kaito stood up and walked towards her.

"Oh, so you were eating here."

Seeing that Kaito was indeed here, Amber began to think about how best to ask her question.

After all, asking directly might seem a bit abrupt.

"Let's go sit at that table first."

Pointing to the table he had just been sitting at, Kaito walked over first.

No matter what, it's better to discuss things sitting down.

"Amber, what would you like to eat? I'll tell the bartender for you."

Seeing that Amber didn't immediately bring up the matter after sitting down, Kaito continued to pretend ignorance and asked her what she wanted to eat.

"No, it's fine, I've already eaten." Shaking her head, Amber indicated that she had already eaten. Then she continued, "Oh, right, where's Wendy? I don't see her anywhere; aren't you two together?"

After speaking, Amber even looked around with a serious demeanor.

"She's probably still outside the city."

On the surface, Kaito said this with a hint of uncertainty, but in reality, knowing everything, he was already inwardly amused.

Amber is quite good at pretending...

But she certainly didn't expect that Wendy is also my Kaito!!!

"It's so late, and she's a girl who still hasn't returned. Aren't you worried?" Amber continued to inquire.

Honestly, she didn't expect Kaito not to care at all why Wendy hadn't returned yet.

"She's very strong, no need to worry."

Kaito looked full of confidence.

You see, in the Genshin Impact world, Wendy can walk sideways.

"No matter how strong she is, if she came back and happened to see you and me eating here, she'd definitely get angry, and that has nothing to do with strength." Amber continued to steer towards the question she wanted to ask.

"Why would she get angry? You just happened to come here to eat, and I just happened to be eating here. It's perfectly normal to run into each other."

Looking very confused, Kaito stated that this was normal.

Of course, the underlying meaning of this sentence was that Wendy wouldn't get angry.

"But I'm a girl."

"I know you're a girl."

Amber: "..."
