Ying was also somewhat moved by this scene and nodded to Catherine.
After all, I've been doing commissions every day for the past month, and I've seen Catherine every day.
"Yes, I'm a little reluctant to part with it, after all, we see each other almost every day."
Paimon spread out his little hands, nodded, and said.
"Hehe, in that case, find me quickly when you get to Inazuma."
"I will be waiting for you on Narukami Island."
Upon hearing this, Catherine looked at Ying and Paimon in front of her and smiled mischievously.
"Ha ha..."
When Qiu Nian saw this scene, he chuckled softly.
"I knew it."
Ying gave Catherine a disdainful look upon hearing her words.
"So Inazuma also has a Miss Catherine!"
"Then let's not make such a big deal out of saying goodbye!"
Paimon, hands on his hips, said somewhat angrily to Catherine in front of him.
"As expected, Inazuma also has a Catherine. So what exactly is Catherine?"
Snowflakes found this scene quite strange.
[It's not a robot or anything, is it? After all, there's a keyhole on Catherine's back (eating popcorn)]
Sometimes when talking to Catherine, she would say things that seemed unusual.
It feels like there's a Catherine in every one of the Seven Kingdoms (facepalm)
Didn't any of you notice Qiu Nian chuckle? It seems he noticed it a long time ago.
[After all, the son-in-law is a god; he must know who Catherine is.]
"Haha, say goodbye to Liyue properly."
"The ship is still anchored near Guyun Pavilion. Now that I've informed you, I'll head back first."
Hailong smiled when he saw this, and after speaking to Qiu Nian and the other two, he walked away into the distance.
After a long time, Qiu Nian and the other two boarded the giant ship of Beidou once again.
"Boss, I've brought the person over. I'll go help the brothers now."
Hailong nodded to Beidou and then walked to the side.
After the dialogue ended, the screen with the snowflakes displayed the scene that the first act of the second chapter, "Fudo Narukami, Eternal Paradise," had begun.
"Are we finally going to see the third country?!"
"Inazuma, I'm here!"
Snowflakes looked on with anticipation upon seeing this scene.
After a long while, Qiu Nian, Ying, and Paimon arrived on the deck of the Death Star.
"Oh, you've finally arrived."
Beidou put one hand on his hip, looked at Qiu Nian and the other two in front of him, and greeted them.
“In the past, even storms couldn’t delay the Southern Cross fleet.”
"I've really given you a lot of face this time."
Beidou looked at Qiu Nian and the other two in front of him and continued to tease them.
"my pleasure!"
Ying looked at the Big Dipper in front of her and said with a smile.
"Haha, just kidding."
Beidou smiled and waved his hand upon hearing this.
"It's been a long time, Miss Hokuto."
Qiu Nian looked at the majestic Big Dipper before her and nodded slightly.
"Yes, it's been a long time, Mr. Qiu Nian,"
"You've come at the perfect time; the preparations for going to sea have just been completed."
"Now that everyone is here, it's time to set sail for the eternal kingdom shrouded in thunder and rain!"
Beidou turned around and gave an order, after which the sailors on the Death Star began to get busy.
Before long, the enormous ship sailed toward Inazuma.
Ying and Paimon looked around curiously, then jogged a few steps forward.
It was already noon when Qiu Nian arrived at the edge of the giant ship and looked out at the vast blue ocean.
The sunlight shines on the sea, and the sounds of waves and seabirds, along with the sea breeze, make Qiu Nian feel exceptionally comfortable.
"Mr. Qiu Nian, the fleet will not be able to depart for a while."
"If you're tired, you can go to the cabin over there to rest. There's fruit that the boss had prepared."
Just then, a boy's voice rang in Qiu Nian's ears.
Qiu Nian turned around and saw that the person who came was Wan Ye.
"I understand, thank you."
Qiu Nian nodded and thanked Wan Ye.
At this moment, the screen went black, and a line of text appeared: "A few days later..."
After the blackout ended, torrential rain poured down on the deck.
Lightning flashed and thunder roared, dark clouds filled the sky, and huge waves crashed against the hull, making it difficult for the sailors on the Death Star to stand.
"Big sister!"
"It's a thunderstorm off the coast of Inazuma!"
A sailor turned around and shouted loudly to the leader of the group, who was high up.
"Full speed ahead, break through the thunderstorm!"
Beidou frowned slightly, then waved his hand and gave the order.
With Beidou's command and the cooperation of the sailors and crew, the Death Star gradually increased its speed and rushed out of the thunderstorm.
At this moment, Qiu Nian was sitting in the cabin with Ying, Paimeng, Wan Ye, and others.
Immediately afterwards, the screen went black again.
A line of text appeared on the screen.
After breaking through the thunderstorm surrounding Inazuma, the Death Star finally arrived at the port...
The sky gradually brightened, the sun rose, and a background music piece full of Inazuma-esque feeling began to play.
"Wow..."
Upon seeing this, Ying and Paimon rushed to the side of the boat, slightly opening their mouths as they looked into the distance.
"Inazuma...?"
Qiu Nian strolled over to Ying and Paimon, murmuring with some emotion.
The island is covered with red maple trees, and there are many fishing boats and large ships moored there.
It was dusk, and under the glow of the setting sun, the buildings and landscape of Inazuma came into view before the three members of the Aki clan.
Chapter 155 Leaving the Island, Thomas
Red maples and green tiles, a desolate fishing village, maple leaves falling gently in the breeze, a truly beautiful sight.
From afar, one could see many rice farmers and merchants walking on the road.
However, compared to the merchants and pedestrians in Liyue Harbor, the number of people on this outlying island is clearly very small.
At this moment, a cutscene appeared on the snowflake screen, followed by a background music track.
It also showed the scenery of Inazuma Island.
"So beautiful, is this Inazuma?"
"It really captures the essence."
Snowflakes were also somewhat stunned by this scene.
【Hometown Ditty】
[So stunning, the scenery is absolutely amazing!]
However, compared to Mondstadt and Liyue, I feel a strange sense of pressure for some reason.
Yes, Mondstadt and Liyue have a very comfortable feel to them, but this place seems to lack that feeling.
The cherry blossoms in my hometown are in bloom.
As Qiu and his group disembarked from the Death Star, a blond man with green eyes, wearing the Eye of Vulcan, was casually tossing a Mora in his hand.
When the man saw Qiu Nian and his group, he ran up to them with a smile and greeted them.
"It's finally here. The eldest sister of the Liyue people made it easy for me to wait."
"There are also three stowaways... oh no, distinguished guests."
The man first greeted Beidou, and then looked at Qiu Nian and the other two beside him.
"Shh..."
When Ying and Paimon heard Thomas say the words "smugglers," they were somewhat flustered and reminded Thomas.
Qiu Nian, on the other hand, paid no attention to the scenery around her.
