Chapter 114 - The Will to Become Stronger

The Traveler was slightly stunned.

She clearly hadn't expected that Kai, who had been leisurely spacing out beside her since the battle began, had actually been paying attention to her the entire time.

"Never put down your sword until the very last second of the fight!" Kai's casual tone was filled with a healing quality.

Though his words seemed calmly spoken, they instantly caught the Traveler's intended explanation in her throat, unable to be uttered.

That's right, the Traveler had indeed thought about giving up just now.

The power of the Anemo Hypostasis exceeded her imagination.

Such terrifying combat strength was completely beyond what she could currently contend with.

If that was the case...

Perhaps she would have to go to other places to train first, and only after her strength increased could she come back to challenge it again?

One must know that during the battle just now, the Anemo Hypostasis had unrestrainedly plundered the Anemo energy present within the domain.

The surging attacks hidden within the Anemo Blades seemed endless.

The Traveler might be able to resist for a while, but if it came down to a war of attrition... she definitely couldn't win against the omnipresent wind!

Thinking about how she was being toyed with by the wind, the Traveler secretly gritted her teeth.

Intense pain radiated from the wound on her shoulder.

However, when she saw Kai not far away, with that expression of helplessness mixed with a hint of gentleness, for some reason, the Traveler felt an indescribable emotion gradually spreading within her.

"I was rescued by Mr. Kai again."

That strange feeling.

In such a dangerous field.

It was as if an invisible aura was being released, giving her a wonderful sense of security.

This feeling...

Even made her face flush slightly.

Before Kai noticed her, she quickly turned around.

At the same time, she nodded and replied.

"I... I understand, Mr. Kai."

"Thank you for your help just now."

"Ah... it's nothing, after all, I can't just watch you get hurt."

Kai waved his hand casually.

"Just do your best!"

"There are many strong people on the Teyvat continent. If you can't experience life-or-death battles, how can you comprehend the potential unleashed by combat!"

"Improve your strength as soon as possible, so that finding your family will be..."

"Easier, right?"

Kai had no doubts about the Traveler's potential.

The five-star potential of the main characters is no joke.

As long as the pressure is great enough, improving strength is simply an easy task.

Then he would quickly send her away from Mondstadt.

Then the task entrusted by Jean would be completed.

"As long as the main characters leave, it symbolizes the end of all events."

"Now Mondstadt can finally return to its former daily life."

Kai couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

To make the Traveler a qualified tool, Kai had paid too much.

At this point, he should have been secretly hugging the soft and fragrant Jean in the office, and having afternoon tea.

Running around in this wilderness fighting and killing, all for the sake of quickly dealing with the Traveler's matter.

Then quickly send her to Liyue.

As for the Fatui and the main characters afterward...

How much trouble they would cause in the Liyue region, and how much impact there would be...

Emm... it's none of my business anyway.

"Family..."

The Traveler blinked.

Hearing Kai's slow tone, her eyes instantly lit up.

"If you go to other places in the wilderness and fight Hilichurl step by step."

"Although it's not entirely useless, the improvement in strength is negligible, and it can't even serve as a proper sharpening."

"How important is strength, I don't need to remind you, right?"

Strength... The Traveler gripped the weapon in her hand.

That's right, becoming strong.

Possessing unparalleled strength is also one of her goals.

If she had possessed enough strength when she first arrived on the Teyvat continent.

Her brother would not have been taken away by an unknown god.

And none of this would have happened!

"That's right, I want to become stronger..."

The Traveler murmured to herself, the gloom in her eyes having receded.

Seeing this scene.

Kai nodded with satisfaction.

He glanced at the Anemo Hypostasis next to him, which was already so bored that it blew out a wisp of wind blade.

And was playing with gravel.

He couldn't help but raise his chin.

"It's good that you understand."

"Then, continue your battle."

"Don't worry about safety, the entire afternoon today belongs to you... Fight with all your potential, let me see what level of power you, as the Traveler, can unleash."

If there was a wild monster ranking list in this world.

Then in the Mondstadt region, the strength of the Anemo Hypostasis.

Definitely belonged to the top tier of the wild monster ranking list.

Since that was the case, why not use a living sparring partner?

Why go out and farm Hilichurl small monsters?

It would be a waste of resources not to...

"It's still the same as before."

"Fight with all your strength, no holding back at all... otherwise, you should know the consequences, right?"

After finishing his conversation with the Traveler.

Kai turned to look at Beth, saying in a calm tone.

His tone was completely different from when he spoke to the Traveler.

Although what he said this time still sounded calm.

But to the Anemo Hypostasis, Beth.

It was as terrifying as a devil's whisper from hell.

It immediately made it not dare to disobey in the slightest, and directly agreed.

"I... I understand!"

To be honest... this behavior was quite insulting to the wind!

As one of the most powerful creatures entrenched in the Mondstadt region.

The Anemo Hypostasis clearly had its own dignity.

Being used as a tool by others like this.

Running off to accompany a young girl to gain experience, and having to take a critical hit from time to time.

If it were in the past, that would absolutely never have happened.

But the problem was, if the abuser was Kai.

Then it naturally had to be treated differently.

After all, the incident of being brutally beaten for a month back then.

Even after several years, the Anemo Hypostasis still remembered it vividly.

It was completely ingrained deep in its DNA.

Since that was the case, being used as a sparring tool, although made it quite unhappy.

Compared to being pressed to the ground and violently hammered by Kai.

No matter how you looked at it, the former was obviously more acceptable.

Being a trial tool... at most, when it accidentally hit too hard, it would suddenly take a critical hit and hurt for a moment.

But if it directly fought Kai.

There was a small probability of hurting even more.

A high probability... it would be a dream back to the past, right?

"Hmm... this should be enough."

He continued to lean leisurely against the tree.

Staring at the Traveler, who had rekindled her confidence and was fighting again.

Kai couldn't help but murmur to himself.

This scene of igniting fighting spirit, not retreating in the face of a strong enemy,

But instead charging forward recklessly.

"Jean must have fought like this back then, too, right?"

Kai couldn't help but think, a slight curve appearing at the corner of his mouth.

He had to admit... purely from an appreciative perspective.

Such a young girl was truly quite cute...
