Genshin Impact: Tragedy Life Simulator

Seeing the scene unfold from within the consciousness of this simulated body, Kael was utterly shocked.

"What the hell! System, am I bleeding from all seven orifices right now!?"

"Are you sure this body can even survive the next few days?!"

[The simulated body's awakening was forced beyond its physical limits. Additionally, the intense emotions experienced by the simulated host have accelerated its deterioration.]

[Estimated remaining lifespan: one day. To extend this duration, you must stabilize the simulated host's emotional state.]

Stabilize the emotional state...

But the simulated version of himself had just lost so many loved ones.

How could he possibly control such strong emotions?

In the end, it seemed he'd have to step in himself.

"Transfer consciousness. I'll take control of this body from now."

[Acknowledged. The simulated host's consciousness has entered deep sleep. Host's consciousness is now in control.]

Kael clenched his fists gently, verifying that he now had control over the body.

Qiqi saw the blood continuously pouring from Kael's face and quickly laid him down flat on the deck.

"Oh... this is bad... Qiqi didn't take good care of Mr. Kael... Mr. Kael is dying..."

Qiqi spoke in her usual slow and calm tone, completely mismatched with the urgency of her words.

The Alcor crew members, hearing this strange little girl's remarks, quickly panicked.

"Dying!? What's going on with Kael!?"

"Kael!! Are you alright? Can you hear us?"

Kael felt intense waves of pain radiating through his head.

He slowly took deep breaths, doing his utmost to calm himself.

When he'd first transferred consciousness and taken over the body, he'd instantly been overwhelmed by the simulated host's powerful emotions.

Heartache, guilt, grief—all sorts of negative emotions surged forth like a tidal wave.

He realized that the simulated Kael had been enduring this emotional torment all along.

No wonder his body had collapsed, causing him to bleed from all orifices.

As Kael gradually steadied his emotions, blood continued to flow from his face, quickly staining the deck beneath his head crimson.

"Oh... the blood seems to be getting worse... Mr. Kael really is about to die..."

"What do you mean, about to die!?"

Beidou's voice rang out sharply as she approached, pushing through the gathered crew members.

When she saw the bloodied figure lying on the deck, her heart nearly stopped.

"Kael!!!"

Beidou dropped to her knees, instinctively reaching out to hold Kael, but her hands froze mid-air, trembling uncontrollably. She was terrified she'd hurt him further.

"What happened...? Can you hear me...?"

Beidou was usually strong, rarely allowing her crew to see her vulnerable side. She always hoped to remain a reliable, courageous figure in their eyes.

But right now, seeing Kael in this state, her heart shattered completely.

She couldn't control herself anymore. Tears streamed down her face.

After a long moment, Kael finally managed to calm his emotions.

Gradually, the bleeding from his face began to slow.

He gazed weakly up at Beidou, who was crying openly, and forced a faint smile.

"Captain... don't cry. I'm alright."

"How could you possibly be alright!? Do you have any idea how serious you look right now!?"

Beidou sobbed as she yelled at Kael, then urgently turned to Qiqi. "Where's your boss? Where's Baizhu!? Tell him to come to the Alcor right now!"

"Baizhu... Bai...zhu..." Qiqi tilted her head slowly, a puzzled expression on her face. "Baizhu said he had something important to do today... Qiqi forgot to write it down... can't remember..."

Kael, finally feeling a little better, struggled to push himself upright with his arms. "Captain, relax. Dr. Baizhu went to look up some ancient medical texts for my treatment. I'm feeling much better now; just give me a moment to catch my breath."

He touched his face, only to find his hand coated in blood.

"I look pretty awful right now. Qiqi, can you help me back to my room to clean up?"

"Okay... Mr. Kael."

Qiqi nodded and bent down, slipping her arms under Kael's knees, preparing to lift him up.

"I'll do it."

Before Qiqi could move, Beidou gently stopped her and effortlessly scooped Kael up into her arms, carrying him princess-style.

With her Vision and years spent at sea, Beidou's physical strength far exceeded that of ordinary people. Lifting Kael was effortless for her.

Kael felt himself flush with embarrassment as he lay in Beidou's arms.

He was a grown man standing over six feet tall, yet here he was, being carried princess-style by a woman...

Honestly, compared to being carried by Beidou, he'd rather have Qiqi do it.

Although Qiqi looked like a little girl, Kael knew she was actually a small zombie immortal who had been alive for thousands of years. Being carried by her wouldn't have felt quite so awkward.

But Beidou... She was someone the simulated Kael had secretly admired for a long time.

Being held so intimately by this alluring and strong-willed woman was more than a little embarrassing.

The faint scent of flowers emanating from Beidou mixed with the metallic tang of his own blood, creating a peculiar fragrance that kept drifting into Kael's nose.

His expression grew increasingly uncomfortable.

Beidou, who was holding him close, had been deeply worried about his condition. But upon noticing Kael's awkward, flustered expression beneath the streaks of blood, she felt some of her anxiety ease.

A playful look appeared in her eyes.

"What's wrong? Is our tough guy Kael feeling shy?"

Kael's face flushed deeper. "Captain..."

"You don't need to feel embarrassed. If you really can't walk in the future, I'll gladly carry you for the rest of your life."

Beidou stared seriously into Kael's eyes, her voice firm and unwavering.

"I can become your legs, your support in life. Just entrust yourself to me. After all, we still have many adventures ahead of us on the open sea."

Kael sighed inwardly.

Given this body's terrible condition, continuing adventures aboard the Alcor seemed impossible.

Forget adventures—he wasn't even sure he could sustain this broken body for another week, even with attribute points.
