How long has it been since leaving Mondstadt?
Cid looked at the envelope from little Barbara in his hand.
He also picked up his pen to write down his own experiences, falling into reminiscence...
From Mondstadt to Dragonspine, receiving the blessing of the Frostbearing Tree; from Dragonspine to Liyue, arriving at Wangsheng Funeral Parlor and receiving guidance from Mr. Zhongli, the great hidden sage in the city...
At the moment of parting, receiving an Anemo Vision, so he first studied Anemo energy up in Dragonspine, thinking to research Anemo peacefully in a place with few people. But unexpectedly, he encountered the lost and confused little Eula.
Afterward, choosing to return to Liyue, going to the border between life and death, making the acquaintance of Cloud Retainer and Lord Geo Archon of Liyue. After truly becoming an old uncle, he also met many pure and cute children in Liyue Harbor...
Wanting to be an adventurer, wanting to see more people and beautiful things.
Life in Liyue was wonderful, but the old uncle worried that if he really settled down there permanently—an adventurer should always like to wander around—so when he feared rooting himself in Liyue, he chose the parting of gentle winds.
In the end, coming to this messed-up place called Inazuma, just because he was tall, he inevitably got dragged into this vortex.
With great power comes great responsibility; with great authority...
The things he came to Inazuma to do were truly many and busy. The only relatively leisurely time was that period staying in the little wooden cabin rubbing foxes.
Look at what the old uncle has been busy with in Inazuma? Teaching a god, befriending a hundred-year-old great youkai, beating up bad guys in Inazuma...
He's been busy from head to tail.
Little Barbara, you have to keep it up. Old uncle here is already a legendary adventurer renowned across the nations~
Hehe, even if your concert is on a smaller scale, old uncle won't mind.
Oh, right, and that young man Adrian—let me think how to evaluate him...
["To be called a good person by Barbara, the purity of a child tells me you've done very well. Keep it up. May the Anemo Archon protect you."]
Mm...
Would saying it this casually be a bit too offhand...?
Mainly because of how the young man looks from little Barbara's description...
Mm, let's just put it that way.
The old uncle looked at his reply letter, pondering what else he could say to little Barbara.
In any case, he definitely couldn't tell little Barbara that the big sister Eula she asked him to take care of was the reason Uncle had to bid farewell to Mondstadt forever...
In the end, the letter turned out very long, yet for his own experiences, it seemed a bit too shallow...
"Da Wang~"
Cat girl Kirara climbed up the old uncle's pant leg and onto the desk where he was reading the letter.
"Hm? Kirara, are you interested in a little kid's letter too?"
The old uncle reached out to pet cat girl Kirara's head.
Cat girl Kirara curiously looked at the envelope on the desk.
This was also one of cat girl Kirara's hobbies.
Whenever the old uncle was telling stories or writing something, this cat liked to accompany him by his side.
Unfortunately, when the old uncle had to go out in the morning, he could only leave cat girl Kirara at the Kamisato Estate, which meant cat girl Kirara could only boredly wander around outside the Kamisato Estate in the morning.
In the afternoon, she would squat beside the old uncle and little Sara, watching the two of them work busily.
But now in the afternoon, the only one left handling government affairs at the Kamisato Estate was the old uncle.
Because little Sara had to go take charge of military authority. Right now she was probably organizing the army in her capacity as the Shura Anyakonsen-shou's disciple.
All three big kids had gone off to handle their tasks. Who was still left at the Kamisato Estate now?
Little Ayaka was studying inheritance matters with her mother.
Miyuki was secretly finding every way possible to type away.
Little Kuki Shinobu had already obtained her advanced chef certificate and had heard she planned to learn tailoring next...
Oh, right, and there was also an adorable little tanuki squatting beside his desk slacking off.
This child was always so silent that the old uncle often forgot about this little tanuki.
Everything was proceeding in an orderly manner...
How nice~
The old uncle also used cat girl Kirara's paw to stamp a cat-paw plum blossom mark belonging to her on little Barbara's reply letter.
Although the Akasha Terminal would make future contact very convenient, letters also had their own unique, tangible charm that one could see and touch.
