My Next Life in Teyvat: I Just Wanted Friends, Not Every Girl's Love!-Chapter 209 - 208: A Nation Heading Towards Destruction

"Hooray! We’re finally here! I finally don’t have to eat fish dishes anymore; I can try something new."

As soon as he got off the ship, Paimon excitedly looked left and right. Near the dock, a few scattered fishermen and other Inazuman soldiers could be seen.

Since they were considered illegal immigrants, they didn’t dare to be as ostentatious as they were in Liyue and Mondstadt.

"By the way, what should we do next, Big Sister Beidou? We’re stowaways, right? What if we’re discovered by the Inazuman soldiers? Will we be thrown into jail?"

"Haha~ I think it would be quite difficult for any country to throw you into jail. But don’t worry, he should be here to welcome us soon."

No sooner had she spoken than a young man jogged up to them, raising his hand to greet them very familiarly.

"Yo, you made me wait a long time, Big Sister of the Liyue people. And these distinguished guests, welcome to your arrival."

The young man’s attitude was very friendly, but Paimon couldn’t help but feel that he reminded her of Kaeya, though he gave a better impression than Kaeya.

Did he already know that they were coming to Inazuma? He seemed to know Beidou. Could it be that Beidou had told him about this beforehand?

"Let me introduce you. This is a business partner I recently met, Thoma. He’s a very reliable person. He’s been active in Ritou for a long time; it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call him the fixer here. If you encounter any trouble in Inazuma, you can find him, and he’ll do his best to help you solve it. These are..."

"No need for introductions, I know them. The Traveler from another land and the divine doctor of mondstadt who can cure any illness. Their fame cannot be stopped even by the storms of the outer seas; I’ve long been aware of them."

Despite the sakoku decree, some major news from the outside world could still get in, such as the Stormterror incident in Mondstadt and the death of Rex Lapis in Liyue. In these events, there was always a main character: Lumine, the Traveler from another land.

Besides Lumine and Paimon, there was also Durandal, the divine doctor whose reputation had already spread throughout the Seven Nations. Countless officials and nobles in Inazuma, upon learning that she could cure any illness, wanted to leave Inazuma to find her.

However, Inazuma’s sakoku decree made it impossible for them to leave. Even if they secretly left, they would not be able to pass through the thunderous sea area. Forcibly passing through might even cost them their lives.

Those who wanted to find Durandal’s help were eagerly waiting for her to arrive in Inazuma, knowing that she was currently traveling the Seven Nations.

Under such anticipation, Durandal’s reputation gradually grew, to the point where even the Child on the street had heard of her.

"If you can really cure any disease, then I have something I want to ask of you. Please listen to my request later and help me treat some people."

When Thoma said this, his eyes were full of anticipation. He really hoped that Durandal could cure all diseases as rumored.

He was still quite worried. The disease he wanted to ask Durandal to treat was a common problem in Inazuma, but it had never appeared in Liyue and Mondstadt.

He wasn’t very sure if Durandal could handle it, but the doctors in Inazuma couldn’t handle those things, so he could only hope that Durandal could cure them as rumored.

"If I have time, I will help."

Durandal did not refuse. Since Thoma could be favored by Big Sister Beidou, it meant that he should have some ability here, and they might need his help in Inazuma in the future.

"Alright, it seems like you guys are getting along well. Since that’s the case, then I should probably leave too. Before those Inazuma soldiers want to inspect the Alcor, after all... there’s still a wanted criminal on my ship."

Kaedehara Kazuha was still on the ship. He was currently in a wanted state. If the Inazuma soldiers found out that he was on the Alcor, then some of the Alcor’s future actions in Inazuma would be hindered.

"Are we separating here? Big Sister Beidou."

Paimon looked at Big Sister Beidou with some reluctance. Although they had only spent a few days together, she really liked this generous big sister.

Hearing that she was about to leave, Paimon suddenly felt a lot less secure and hoped that she wouldn’t leave.

"Don’t make such an expression, Paimon. You have your things to do, and I also have my own things to deal with. I believe that with your strength, you can overcome any trouble you encounter."

Like a true big sister, Big Sister Beidou gently touched Paimon’s head and comforted her.

Under Big Sister Beidou’s comfort, Paimon also accepted the fact that Big Sister Beidou was leaving and nodded.

"Yes, I understand. Goodbye, and have a safe trip, Big Sister Beidou."

Finally, after touching Paimon’s head, Big Sister Beidou nodded to the others as a sign and walked towards the Alcor.

After Big Sister Beidou left, everyone’s eyes turned to Thoma. Being watched by so many beautiful girls all at once, Thoma scratched his head somewhat awkwardly.
