While the two were talking, under Wendy’s reminder, the detector was put on the glow.
“Huh? Did Stanley actually have fantasy friends? ”
Little Paimon was surprised by the results of the probe, “It seems that his fantasy friend is a battle-hardened warrior… His body is covered in scars, and his expression is also very resolute…”
Wendy lowered her eyes, as if she was really pondering, “His fantasy friend, is it an idealized version of himself?” Interesting, but… Is this really the case? ”
Wendy’s words drew the approval of Ying and Paimon.
At this time, the group had left the secret realm, and Stanley also temporarily “said goodbye” to Jack.
“Two, are you free?”
Paimon: ???
Is this ignoring me?
“Huh?” Wendy turned ~ to look at Jack.
“Actually, Mr. Stanley got drunk the other day and said something unknown to me.” Jack explains, “The weapons he used in his adventures were the relics of the great hero Winessa, the Sword of Brilliant Courage and the Shield of Radiant Will! ”
……,
“You guys are so good. Can you accompany me to find these two artifacts?” ”
“I’m still a newcomer with little ability, and my parents have always been very opposed to my ideal of being an adventurer.”
“As long as I can find something powerful enough to prove myself, my family will definitely support me as an adventurer!”
“So please, help me!!!
Jack clasped his hands together and his eyes pitiful.
“I dare not tell Mr. Stanley this selfish thought… But I promise to return it to him as soon as I finish using it!!! ”
“Although… Although you ignored Paimon’s existence, it’s really pitiful…” Paimon pulled the traveler’s clothes, “Traveler, let’s help him!” ”
Dazzling:……
“Alright!” Paimon said so, and Ying agreed, “Wendy, are you coming?” ”
“This… Hmm…” Wendy hesitated.
“The year before last, I asked someone to get a bottle of precious wine, as long as you help me find the artifact, the wine will belong to you!”
“Deal!” Wendy instantly responded, “Without further ado, let’s hurry up!” ”
……
The group immediately went to the Dadaupa Valley, but after some searching, everyone looked at the “sword” and “shield” in front of them and fell into deep thought.
“This is an ordinary sword and shield!” Jack looked over and over at the sword and shield in front of him, and did not find anything strange, “Moreover, it is still tattered…”
“No, Jack,” Wendy interrupted the lost Jack, “the warrior is proud of the scars on his body, and the same is true of weapons, complete equipment, which can only mean that it is far from the battlefield, and the broken weapon, isn’t it the name of its battle-hardened?” ”
“Yes!” Jack turned his worries into joy and looked at the sword and shield in his hand again, his face full of joy.
“It’s you!” Ying Dark on the side gave a thumbs up.
Satisfied, Jack leaves Dadaupa Valley, and Wendy’s group, who is about to leave, also discovers Stanley hidden in the shadows.
“Huh? Isn’t this Stanley? Are you here for a walk? Wendy raised an eyebrow.
“Ahhh… Hahahaha… Isn’t this a bard? What a coincidence, you also come here for a walk? ”
“yes, find something with a friend.” Wendy smiled and suddenly asked, “The Great Adventurer must be familiar with Dadaupa Valley, right?” After all, this is where you once fought. ”
“Of course! Of course! I can walk all over this place with my eyes closed! Seeing that Wendy seemed to want to say something, Stanley hurriedly said, “Haha, if it’s okay, then goodbye, young people!” ”
Without waiting for everyone’s reaction, Stanley left in a hurry.
……
“So weak-hearted… I feel more and more that this person is a liar…”
“It’s really weak-hearted!” Travelers also agreed with Paimon.
“No way, who let him boast about Jack in the estuary?” Wendy shrugged, “But… Look at it again, it is really interesting. ”
“People who don’t want to forget the past and abandon the present?”
“If he is forced to take a step into the future, in what direction?”
“Huh??? What do you mean? What past? What future? What are you talking about? Little Paimon annoyed these riddlers the most, “Also, what do you mean to watch again?” Have you noticed him a long time ago? ”
“Hey~” Wendy smiled, “It’s just talking to yourself, tonight, let’s go to the Angel’s Tavern!” ”
……
In the evening, the group came to the Angel’s Gift Tavern and sat behind the drunken Stanley.
“Stanley… Tell me, what should I do…” Stanley, who was lying on the wine table, was half-awake, and his voice seemed to have a faint cry.
“Huh? Why did he call his name again? Little Paimon said strangely, “Is there any hidden secret?” ”
Several people continued to listen.
“Whew… Uh-huh… Stanley…”
“Those who died in the Sea of Ember back then… Why not me! Why don’t I use your name and your soul stop me? Stanley! ”
“If it weren’t for protecting me as a newcomer, you wouldn’t have died in that windless place!”
“You’ve got the name of the Great Adventurer, but… But just for my kind of waste, you can no longer become a legend…”
“I’m afraid… Stanley! After so many years, I am afraid that the people in Mondstadt will forget you completely…”
“How can a legendary figure like you be forgotten?”
“Nope!”
“Can’t!”
“I will never allow you to be forgotten!!!”
“For this reason, I bear your name and tell your adventure stories everywhere…”
“Stanley won’t die! Because I am! Because I just… Stanley…”
“But now… Stanley…… I’m sorry…… I’m sorry…”
“Now I’m old… Even I’m old…”
“Oops! Discovered by him!!! Little Paimon quickly hid behind the traveler.
Ying and Wendy looked at each other and stepped forward, just about to speak, but were interrupted by Stanley.
“Let’s go… Don’t ask anything… Let me be alone and quiet for a while…”
“But…”
“Go! Don’t make me say a second time!!! ”
“Knight of Honor? Wendy? And Paimon? That’s great! You’re all here! Suddenly, Jack’s voice came.
Everyone looked back and saw Jack dressed as an adventurer, dressed very regularly.
“I’m looking for you everywhere!” Jack stepped forward happily, “I’m here to thank you!” Thanks to you for helping me find the sword and shield, my parents agreed! ”
“Oh? Are you sure? ”
“That’s nice!” Wendy smiled and responded, “So, Jack, are you leaving Mond and sailing the continent of Teyvat?” ”
“Nope! Don’t go yet! With my current ability, I’m afraid I won’t be able to go too far…” Jack scratched his head embarrassedly, “Besides, I want to hear Mr. Stanley’s story again, hehe… After all, he was the starting point of my dreams. ”
Saying that, Jack looked at Stanley, “Stanley first… Ah, he’s drunk again…”
“See you tomorrow, sir, and when you wake up, I’d like to hear your story again…”
……
As Jack left, Stanley “woke up”, “Thank you for not telling my secret…” )
“I… I didn’t even dare to look at him just now, and his sincerity towards adventure did not have a single impurity. ”
“I’m just a useless liar, and he… He is a sparkling newcomer, but he can’t ruin his dreams! ”
“You can’t call it a liar,” little Paimon racked his brain for comforting words, “After all, Stanley’s adventures and experiences are true!” ”
“The story… Experienced…… Scold! Forget it! Stanley’s words were full of decadence, “Actually, to this day, my memories of adventure, of Stanley… It’s all blurred…”
“This is my biggest secret, my biggest fear…”
“All these years, I lived for his story, but his character, his life… I can’t remember exactly… Hahaha…”
The laughter was filled with helplessness, full of Xiao Suo…
“The only thing I can’t forget is that he died in the windless sea of embers, and the wind can’t take his soul…”
“Hmm… That’s right, the real Stanley, in his memory, is no longer even that living friend. ”
Wendy’s voice sounded softly, “but forever frozen in the appearance of a scarred warrior, binding all his life.” ”
Stanley’s drunkenness grew stronger, “I’m old… No matter how unwilling you want to put it down, you can’t keep much … I’m really useless… It’s useless…”
“But adventurers can’t die that way!”
“Can’t !!!”
……
“Hans Acehbold!”
“Huh?” The drunken and hazy “Stanley” raised his head and looked at Wendy suspiciously, “How do you know my name?” ”
Wendy’s face was solemn and sacred.
The breeze picked up.
The wind blew through the walls, through the wine table, gently skimming over the body of “Stanley” …
“Wind? It’s the sound of the wind in the sea of embers, unwanted…”
“Stanley” held out his hand, as if trying to grab something.
Vaguely, “Stanley” saw it!
He saw it!
High in the sky, that divine figure!
“I’ve always believed in your existence!”
“Stanley” seemed to forget that he was in the tavern at the moment, and stumbled towards Wendy…
“Can the soul of an old friend be handed over to me?”
Wendy held out her hand to Stanley.
“Stanley” did not hesitate and stretched out his hand just as tremblingly.
At the moment when the hands were handed over, there seemed to be a sound of the wind!
“Stanley” saw it!
He saw the soul of his old friend in his memory and smiled at him!!!
“Stanley…”
Hot tears welled up in the eyes, it was excitement, but also like redemption!
He saw the past and also seemed … Seeing the future…
High in the sky, there seems to be a silent melody played by the wind!
The wind is getting stronger…
It carries the melody, pulls…
Pulling the soul of the old friend in the memory of “Stanley” and flying to the distant sky!
If you are stranded in a windless place, I will play the song of heaven!!!
This is the salvation from the wind god above the heavens!!!
Where the heart is at peace, where the soul rests… Factory….
