"Klee wants to go too!"
"Ha, how can such an interesting event be without me!"
The three Vision wielders of the Pyro element all expressed their desire to participate; Pyro truly represents enthusiasm.
Isn't that right, Master Diluc, far away in Mondstadt!
Zhongli thought for a moment and chose to decline: "From a universally rational perspective, such a place is not very suitable for me."
Xavier naturally respected everyone's thoughts and decisions, but some people didn't think that way.
"No, you must go!" Hu Tao put one hand on her hip and pointed at Zhongli, commanding, "If you don't go, your future salary will be completely deducted, and I won't reimburse you for any bills I send."
Zhongli: "..."
"However, on second thought, experiencing it would not be a problem."
Klee tugged at Nahida's sleeve and asked, "Sister Nahida, do people from Liyue all speak like this?"
Uncle Zhongli keeps saying 'on second thought,' but he's said it too many times.
Nahida smiled and explained, "Language is a profound subject, even I can't fully comprehend it."
Even the God of wisdom says so, which shows the wonder of language.
"Then will Sister Nahida go too? Klee wants Sister Nahida to go too~"
After asking the question, Klee then asked Nahida's thoughts.
"One of my purposes in coming to this planet is to experience different cultures. Of course, even without that thought, I would still accompany Klee to do what she wants to do."
"Yay, Sister Nahida is a good person~" Klee completely clung to Nahida.
"Eh heh, I just arrived and I can encounter such an interesting event? It would be impolite not to go."
Venti is also someone who likes excitement, so he certainly wouldn't miss such a good opportunity.
"Comic con... is that a place where people who cosplay as us gather?"
Among everyone, Ei could be said to be the slowest to adapt to the culture of this planet.
Furina surfs the web 24/7, and various internet memes roll off her tongue.
Meanwhile, Ei still struggles to operate a phone, the difference is quite significant.
Although she didn't quite understand the meaning and fun of such an event, she still wanted to experience it.
Since Ei was going, Ayaka would naturally go along as well.
Finally, only one person was left, scratching his head, seemingly very conflicted.
"You, a poor soul cursed by fate, do you not wish to go?"
Fischl noticed Bennett's unusual behavior and asked.
Oz: "My lady means, if it's possible, she would like to invite you to go together."
Fischl stomped her foot in anger: "Oz, you're talking nonsense again! When did I say any of that!"
Bennett said somewhat dejectedly, "It's not that I don't want to go, it's just that there should be a lot of people in such a place, and since I'm so unlucky, I'm bound to implicate everyone else."
This kind unlucky person is different from others; he often has to consider the impact on others, rather than his first thought.
From his performance, he definitely wanted to go very much.
Putting aside everything else, he was just a teenager, how could he not be interested in such a place?
"No matter, if young friend Bennett wishes to go, I have a method of protection."
Zhongli suddenly spoke, surprisingly solving this problem.
"Really? That's great!" Bennett's previous gloom vanished.
This meant that, by the end of the meeting, everyone was going to participate.
For Xavier, it was good news, but also bad news.
Because there were too many people, he really couldn't manage them all.
Forget it, let fate decide!
Xavier was a bit puzzled and found Zhongli after the meeting ended.
"Zhongli, do you really have a way to protect him?"
Zhongli thought for a moment and then said, "To call it protection is not precise; it would be more accurate to say it's applying a barrier to isolate and greatly reduce the impact on external people and objects."
Xavier found Zhongli's explanation a bit difficult to understand and pondered it.
But soon, Xavier understood what was going on.
Listening to Zhongli's profound explanation, wasn't he just putting a shield on him!
"Ouch!"
Just as Xavier figured it out, he heard a scream from upstairs.
He went up to look and saw that Bennett had stepped on a dessert that had just fallen on the floor and had fallen.
Seeing this, Hu Tao asked curiously, "Bennett, are you really one of those very unlucky people? I thought you were joking earlier."
Bennett hadn't even spoken when Fischl started complaining.
"Hmph, this Princess has already said, this person is cursed by fate, plagued by misfortune, and bad things happen constantly."
"Even this Princess had no way to resist his terrible curse and was implicated."
Hu Tao's beautiful plum blossom eyes suddenly lit up, full of luster.
"Wow! That's too awesome!"
Seeing Hu Tao so excited, Venti didn't know why he felt a little scared.
Why does this old man's boss seem a bit crazy?
Everyone else avoided Bennett, yet she said it was awesome.
"My friend, please don't make fun of me. I know I'm very unlucky, but I've tried my best not to affect others."
Bennett scratched his head awkwardly, thinking Hu Tao was mocking him.
Actually, Hu Tao didn't mind at all. She patted Bennett's shoulder and said seriously, "This Hall Master will not mock anyone; I truly think it's great."
"Hmm..." Zhongli pondered slightly, clearly having guessed something.
Hu Tao enthusiastically pulled Bennett to the sofa and invited him to sit down.
She even brought him fruit and dessert, being incredibly attentive.
This scared the unlucky Bennett quite a bit; was it the Windblume Festival already?
"Bennett, you just said your bad luck can be contagious to others, right?"
"Contagious isn't quite right, it's just that when I go on adventures with someone, it's very easy to encounter trouble."
"Oh, it's close enough!" Hu Tao was very excited, and her speech quickened, "First, let me introduce myself, I am the Hall Master of Wangsheng Funeral Parlor in Liyue, specializing in funeral services!"
At this point, Xavier finally understood what was going on.
It had to be said, Hu Tao was truly eccentric, even in business, she found unique approaches.
But the naive and simple Bennett didn't understand anything.
"I just thought about it, and I think we are very suitable for cooperation."
"You just need to go on adventures, and then give me a list of unlucky clients, and I'll prepare their funerals."
"Of course, after it's done, I'll give you a twenty percent cut."
"Although from a factual perspective you are not our client, from now on, you will be our Wangsheng Funeral Parlor's biggest client!"
Bennett was startled; he only understood that he was going to become a client for funeral services.
Although he was unlucky, he wasn't going to die.
What kind of organization was Wangsheng Funeral Parlor? Were they going to bury living people directly!
