Genshin Impact: My roommate and I became funny Hilichurls

Page 133

"Next time you show this kind of 'enthusiasm,' please be sure to explain in advance..."

While weakly complaining, Qingyu pulled out a gleaming metal syringe, about the size of a two-handed greatsword, from who-knows-where! The needle was so thick it could be used as a straw!

Under the puzzled yet uneasy gazes of the crowd, Qingyu, carrying the large syringe, staggered to the unconscious Ying's side, muttering, "Special edition digestive aid syringe, Hilichurl technology, truly awe-inspiring..."

He aimed at Ying's buttocks...

"Pfft——!"

"Ah ah ah ah ah--!!!"

A piercing scream, loud enough to pierce the clouds, filled with extreme pain, terror, and some indescribable stimulation, suddenly burst from Ying's throat!

She sprang up from the ground as if struck by a high-voltage electric shock, clutching her buttocks tightly with both hands, tears streaming down her face, her expression filled with unbearable grief and indignation!

Half a minute passed before Ying, as if all her strength had been drained, collapsed to the ground with a thud. Her eyes stared blankly at the sky, with only the tears streaming down her face proving the torture she had just endured.

"Get one."

Qingyu nodded in satisfaction, then turned his gaze to Paimon, who was lying unconscious on the table.

He switched to a smaller syringe, but still about the size of a one-handed sword, and walked towards Paimon...

"No, don't come any closer!!!"

Paimon seemed to sense a deadly crisis while unconscious, and started talking in his sleep, kicking his short legs wildly in the air.

The entire celebration was filled with a cheerful atmosphere (except for one blonde traveler and her emergency rations).

The people of Nata burst into laughter at this unexpected "sobering-up ceremony."

And so, the group's journey in Nata, amidst this barbecue feast filled with "conspiracy" and "countermeasures," laughter and "pain," left behind yet another indelible (dark) chapter in their history...

Chapter 159 Qingyu: "Eightfold Divine Child! You'll never have an easy time from now on!"

After escorting Ying, who was limping, clutching her buttocks, and with vacant eyes, and Paimon, who was in an equally bizarre posture as if he had experienced a major life-threatening ordeal, back to their rooms to rest, the four of them walked through the streets of Nata at night, preparing to find a place to digest the "lavish hospitality" they had received that evening.

However, an unexpected figure blocked their path.

She was a girl with long, flowing pink hair, and she possessed a literary air that seemed out of place with the rugged atmosphere of Nata.

She crossed her arms and looked up slightly at the four Hilichurls, her tone carrying a hint of curiosity and scrutiny:

"You... are the Hilichurl honorary knights who turned the Seven Kingdoms upside down?"

“Cetrali?”

The group of four immediately recognized the Obsidian Grandma, who was famous throughout Nata.

"But isn't she known as 'Number One Homebody in Nata,' someone who would never leave the house unless absolutely necessary?"

Qingyu muttered to himself, somewhat puzzled.

"Maybe she's looking for rare light novels or new creative inspiration, after all, she's a seasoned otaku."

Er Kang replied in what he thought was a very soft voice, completely unaware that the corner of Citrari's mouth twitched slightly and her expression began to look somewhat unnatural.

"Hmm, I heard she's a tsundere, quite different from her mature and steady brother. This kind of personality is quite popular now."

Gu Qian also added in a simple and honest tone (and in a similarly "quiet" voice).

"That's her grandson. Don't just look at the character art. Besides, you've only reached the Fontaine level in your quests, so don't talk about Nata yet."

Er Kang said helplessly.

“Hey, she can hear me.”

Zhang Chu helplessly reminded his two oblivious teammates, while silently moving his feet and pulling Er Kang, who was still winking and making faces, in front of him to act as a human shield.

He knew all too well that someone as arrogant as Cistraly would literally be physically punished if someone who didn't know her pointed out her true nature to her face!

She would beat up even acquaintances (like her grandson, Orlan) without hesitation!

In short, if a fight breaks out, make sure no blood gets on him, haha!

Sure enough, Cistraly's pretty face flushed red at a visible speed, and her fists clenched so tightly they cracked, clearly trying her best to suppress her shame, anger, and urge to punch someone.

She took several deep breaths to calm herself down, but her ears were still bright red.

She decided to ignore the two tactless Hilichurls and took out a beautifully packaged light novel with a cover art style that was very much like a shoujo manga from her small bag.

"You...you guys...look at this!"

She handed the book over, her tone still a little unnatural.

"Is the story in this book... based on you guys?!"

The four looked at each other, a sense of foreboding creeping over them.

Erkang reached out and took the book, casually flipping to the middle page, his eyes scanning the text...

The next second, he froze completely, as if struck by lightning!

The expression on his face changed from curiosity to shock, and then from shock to an indescribable distortion and... terror?

He silently and stiffly handed the book to Qingyu beside him, and said in a dry voice, "...You...you read this part yourself."

"What's wrong? Why are you being so mysterious?"

Qingyu took the book with a puzzled look and looked down at the page Erkang was pointing to.

Then, he read it aloud clearly, word by word:

"The Windranger pinned the blond traveler firmly against the wall, his powerful arms bracing against the surface, creating an inescapable prison. He lowered his head, his gaze beneath the mask deep and dangerous, his fingers lightly tracing the traveler's trembling cheek. His deep, magnetic voice, tinged with a hint of mockery, rang out: 'Woman, do you know you're playing with fire…'"

Qingyu: "Huh?" (Initially confused)

Everyone: "Huh?!" (Collective shock)

Qingyu: "Ah!!" (Realizing what he's done, his voice rises)

Everyone: "Holy crap!!!" (Ultimate shock, everyone takes a step back)

These consecutive "ahs," each with a different tone but all filled with a soul-stirring impact, profoundly reflected the nuclear-level shock experienced by everyone present (including Ciaraly).

"This absolutely cannot be me—!!!"

Qingyu let out a heart-wrenching roar, feeling that his Hilichurl life had been tarnished like never before!

"Slander! This is blatant slander! This is a devastating blow to my reputation!!"

He roared as he frantically flipped through the pages, trembling with rage: "I'll see which bastard author wrote this! I'm going to settle the score with him!!"

His gaze quickly locked onto two lines of text on the title page:

This book is based on (probably) true events.

Copyright holder: Yaedo

"Hehe...hehehehe..."

Qingyu suddenly let out a series of low and twisted cold laughs, which sent chills down the spines of Erkang, Zhang Chu, Gu Qian and even Xitali, as if a cold snake had crawled up their backs.

The next moment, under everyone's horrified gaze, Qingyu suddenly tore the light novel in his hand into pieces! The scraps of paper fell like snowflakes.

Then, he did something that made everyone's jaws drop—he gathered his strength and slammed his fist into the empty air beside him!

With a crisp sound like shattering glass, a spatial rift, shimmering with chaotic energy, was actually smashed into the space where his fist landed!

That wasn't all! Qingyu reached into the crack, groped around for a while, and then suddenly pulled—

"Ouch! Who is it?!"

A girl's voice, sounding somewhat lazy yet tinged with dissatisfaction, rang out.

A girl dressed in a gorgeous kimono, wearing a fox mask, holding a half-eaten ice cream in her hand, and with half a cake roll in her mouth, was pulled out of the spatial rift by Qingyu with a bewildered look on her face!

It's none other than the Masked Fool from Honkai Impact 3rd: Star Railway – Hanabi!

Qingyu didn't even look to see who he'd dragged out. He hoisted the still clueless Huahuo onto his shoulder like a sack of potatoes and strode angrily toward where their mech, Feng Xingqing, was parked, still roaring:

"Yae no Miko! You damned fox! How dare you talk about me like that! You'll never have a peaceful day in Teyvat again! I'm going to Inazuma right now and smash your Yae-do to pieces!"

"Wait! Qingyu! Calm down!"

Zhang Chu was the first to react and immediately shouted.

"Brother Qingyu! We have no objection to taking revenge on the Eightfold Divine Child! But..."

Er Kang got anxious too.

"That guy you're carrying on your shoulder... Holy crap!! He doesn't need to be on 'Fireworks'!!"

Gu Qian added the most crucial sentence in a deep, muffled voice.

The three of them were so scared they almost jumped out of their skin, and they immediately took off after him!

This is a huge mess! Bringing the Masked Fool to Teyvat is much more serious than what they did!

Fireworks, who was being carried on Qingyu's shoulder, finally came to her senses a little better from the bewilderment of "being eating ice cream and singing when suddenly being robbed by a blue savage."

She blinked her cunning eyes, looked around at the unfamiliar surroundings, then looked down at the angry "savage" carrying her, and at the three strangely shaped "savages" chasing after him, and a dumbfounded pink-haired girl...

She still had a cake roll in her mouth, and the ice cream in her hand, due to the violent movement just now, splattered onto the side of Qingyu's Windwalker mask.

Hanabi: "Huh?"

At this moment, the masked fool, who made a living by creating chaos and amusement, was filled with an unprecedented and pure sense of bewilderment.

Isn't this... a bit too abstract?

Today is destined to be the most inexplicable and incomprehensible day in the life of the Fool of Fireworks.

She even began to wonder if this was a large-scale prank orchestrated by one of her colleagues, targeting her.

This pursuit and misunderstanding, sparked by a fan-fiction light novel and transcending global boundaries, has only just begun...

Chapter 160 Joy

"I...I surrender...I don't need Hanabi to teach Yae no Miko a lesson anymore, okay...?"

Qingyu lay sprawled on the ground like a lump of mud, his body still twitching unconsciously, his voice so weak it sounded like it was being squeezed out from a leaky mask.

Zhang Chu's hammer, crackling with lightning, was no joke.
