It probably wouldn't be impossible. Once I return to Liyue, I can consider asking Mr. Zhongli to look after little Eula for a while, then rush back to Mondstadt quickly to check on little Barbara.
Perfect plan~
As his thoughts continued to expand, the older gentleman flew with little Yoimiya until they arrived at the Naganohara Fireworks shop.
"Old uncle! See you later!"
Little Yoimiya waved goodbye to the older gentleman.
"Alright, see you later."
The older gentleman didn't waste words. Before leaving, he patted little Yoimiya on the head, then rose into the air and flew off again.
Meanwhile, Ryuunosuke walked over to little Yoimiya's side.
"Lord Shura Anyakonsen-shou has left?"
"What Shura Anyakonsen-shou? Dad, that's the adventurer old uncle."
"Is that so? I feel like someone capable of creating such an artifact (referring to the ear-protecting headphones) can't be an ordinary person…
And just now I ran into Mrs. Ito, and she told me that Cid looks a lot like Lord Shura Anyakonsen-shou."
Ryuunosuke scratched the back of his head, looking a bit puzzled.
"Oh come on, Dad~ Mrs. Ito was just saying he looks similar, and besides, Fontaine has similar things too. They're not that rare."
As big sister Yoimiya, it was naturally her duty to cover for the adventurer old uncle who wanted to keep his identity hidden.
"Hm? Is that true? While Fontaine does have plenty of unusual gadgets…"
"Alright, alright~ Dad, I'm hungry. Let's eat first. Old uncle said he'd teach me how to use the Wings of Anemo later."
"Wings of Anemo? That's pretty dangerous… Wait, if Cid's the one teaching you, then it's fine.
But Yoimiya, don't trouble Cid too much. I heard he recently took on a very busy good job…"
"I know, I know~ I'm not troubling old uncle at all."
Big sister Yoimiya once again effortlessly handled her easily persuaded father.
By this time, the older gentleman had already returned to the Kamisato Estate.
Meanwhile, little Sara—who had returned to the Kamisato Estate early—submitted the results of her afternoon's work to her master.
"Sara, sometimes you shouldn't keep that string in your heart pulled so tight. A necessary amount of relaxation is also important…"
The older gentleman reviewed little Sara's homework. In terms of results, it was excellent—there really wasn't much to add. He could just have His Excellency the Geo Archon take a quick look later and it would pass for implementation.
"Master, I did rest properly. Upon returning today, I first cleared my mind, then performed maintenance on the Statue of the Omnipresent God and the Shura statue…"
What? Shura statue? I have merchandise now? Let me see.
"Hm? I didn't know I had a statue. Is this something new that came out today?"
"It's an initial draft just designed and produced by Ayato. He seemed to notice I was interested and gifted it to me for safekeeping."
"Then let me take a look?"
"Come with me, Master."
In the end, the older gentleman stepped into little Sara's collection room.
Upon seeing an entire wall filled with various styles of Raiden Shogun merchandise, he felt truly stunned for a moment.
Then he also spotted his own statue.
It had to be said that his statue was done in a realistic style, appearing majestic and solemn, like an indestructible fortress wall…
And little Ayato seemed to have considered that Lord Shura Anyakonsen-shou didn't want to be too well-known, so he had specially added a Shura demon mask to this statue.
It really was cool. Well done, little Ayato.
But then, seeing his own figure mixed in among the crowd of Raiden Shoguns, the older gentleman fell into deep thought for a moment.
Mhm… I, the older gentleman, should still be quite popular with little Sara, right?
"Great King~"
At that moment, the cat-eared Kirara appeared at the doorway to inform the two that dinner was ready.
However, she was immediately blocked outside the room by little Sara.
She absolutely could not let cat fur get on the statues!
That would be the height of disrespect!
