"Hey, what's going on here? Can't you see this great lord is streaming?" Itto jogged over, slightly irritated, and asked.
"Are you blind? Obviously, we're moving things!" The Shogunate soldier automatically labeled Itto as troublemaker upon noticing the horns atop his head.
Fuming with anger, Itto refrained from immediate action and instead headed towards Yae Publishing House.
After some persuasive "promotion" by Itto, Yae Publishing House finally agreed to install a signal base station near his home.
"Hahaha... This great lord is back! Did ya miss me, everyone?" Itto chuckled heartily, looking at his phone screen.
"Broadcaster, stop laughing; it sounds like that 'ah giao' guy. Do you have any talents or skills?" Finally, a notable viewer spoke up and gifted Itto 1,000 Mora.
Seeing the gift, Itto instantly perked up. He puffed out his chest and declared, "Ha ha, this great lord has plenty of talents! Let me show you my eating prowess!"
"Eating? Who doesn't know how to eat?"
"Scatter already! Might as well watch Old Eighth; his choice of food is way more unique!"
"Woah, wait, don't go yet, everyone!" Seeing viewers about to leave, Itto instantly panicked and quickly pleaded, "I'm the top glutton in Inazuma, capable of devouring massive amounts!"
As expected, this piqued some interest, slowing down the decrease in live stream viewers.
Soon, Itto found a shop and wasted no time ordering a whole roasted pig.
"Haha, give your humble master some follows while I show you how to eat a pig in three bites, ha ha..."
With that, he grabbed the pig's head and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Wow, impressive!"
"Respect, bro! 666..."
On the side, Ushi continued dancing energetically, seemingly cheering on Itto.
However, after just three bites, Itto's eyes rolled back, and his body began convulsing. Struggling, he managed to say, "There...there were soybeans inside the roast pig!"
Immediately after, Itto collapsed unconscious. The shop owner nearby panicked...

"Ah, everyone wants to see fireworks?" Yoimiya observed the screen, noticing the comments popping up, and was somewhat taken aback.
"Fireworks!"
"Fireworks!"
"Well then, let's give you all a spectacular show!" With a radiant smile, Yoimiya turned her camera, revealing row upon row of meticulously arranged fireworks nearby.
One could only marvel at this display; it truly lived up to having a family-run firework business. Without such resources, sustaining such extravagance would be impossible.
Soon, countless fireworks soared into the sky, illuminating the pitch-black night with vibrant colors.
"As fleeting as fireworks may be, friendships endure forever!" Gazing at the blossoming fireworks above, Yoimiya sighed wistfully. She opened her hand, revealing Lumine's custom firework formula within.
After expressing her sentiments, Yoimiya glanced back at her phone, where the chat was now flooded with messages.
"Can we pause the chat? I want to enjoy this beautiful wallpaper."
"People, mute your chats already, got it?"
"It's absolutely stunning! How blissful it must be to witness this sky live!"
"Yoimiya, Happy Birthday! So sorry we can't celebrate together. The Traveler and I have reached Sumeru, and there's even signal here—you can call us now!"
At that moment, one particular message caught Yoimiya's attention. She smiled gently, nodding in agreement.
Not to be outdone, Paimon generously sent a rocket-shaped gift emblazoned with "Happy Birthday" in large letters.
Seeing this reminiscent of fireworks, Yoimiya's interest piqued immediately. Smiling, she said, "Thank you for the gift, Traveler! In a bit, I'll demonstrate how to make those rockets just like the one you sent!"
"Hmph! It was clearly my gift," Paimon huffed, hands on her hips, visibly miffed.

"According to Inazuma's latest report, a sudden explosion occurred at the skykeep during noon; no one knows what happened.
Following the incident, Yae Miko, spokesperson for Inazuma's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, issued a statement condemning Liyue chef Xiangling, stating that she should not teach incorrect cooking methods!"

In Mondstadt.
Lin Feng pressed his ear against Eula's belly, his eyes narrowing with joy.
"I heard him calling me 'Daddy,' hehe!" Lin Feng grinned mischievously at Eula.
"It's way too early for that!" Eula rolled her eyes, but her face also beamed with happiness.
Meanwhile, Amber vigorously punched Baron Bunny nearby, clearly feeling envious!
"Amber, is something wrong? Are you not feeling well?" Eula looked at Amber, asking with concern and a smile.
"No, it's nothing! I want to listen too!" Pouting, Amber approached and leaned close to Eula's belly.
"When will you find someone special so we can hear your little one, Amber?" Eula teased, smiling warmly.
Suddenly, Amber's phone rang, startling both of them.
She stepped away slightly and answered the call.
"Hello, is this Senior Amber?" A familiar voice, filled with excitement, came from the other end.
"Mm-hmm..." Amber nodded, slightly puzzled. Recently, phone scams had become rampant; she'd even heard about a Bull-Chucker from Inazuma who lost over eighty thousand Mora in an online romance scam.
"Senior Amber, it's Collei here!" Collei exclaimed enthusiastically from Sumeru.
"Oh, looks like she really idolizes Amber!" Paimon observed, hands on her hips.
"Collei, right! How have you been in Sumeru?" Amber's face instantly lit up, asking cheerfully.
"Yes, yes...I'm doing great. Master Tighnari has been wonderful, and I've even learned some medical skills!" Collei nodded excitedly, sounding very happy.
***
"Alright then, make sure to visit Mondstadt when you have time! I'll take you on a thrilling flight down from Dragonspine!"
"Sounds great, Amber-senpai!" Collei nodded and promptly ended the call.
"Poor Collei, she's been crushing on Amber for so long!" Paimon couldn't help but remark sympathetically.
"I-I'm sorry, got carried away there!" Collei blushed slightly, scratching her head, quickly regaining her usual composed demeanor.
***
A smile graced Amber's face as she playfully retorted to Eula, "Hmph, I'll remember this slight!"

Several months later, Lin Feng stood atop the Skyfrost Nail, gazing into the distance.
"System, is it time?" A hint of sadness crept onto Lin Feng's face as he asked.
"Yes!" came the system's cold response.
"It's time, but I'm not leaving!" Suddenly, Lin Feng let out a carefree laugh and shook his head. He unfurled his Wind Glider and began descending towards the ground.
"You're not leaving?" the system asked again.
"Hell no! I've got a wife and kids now. You go ahead; safe travels!" Lin Feng chuckled with a mix of laughter and rebuke as he gently touched down.
"Alright then..." The system's voice gradually faded away, having its own mission to fulfill.

"It's a boy..."
"How about we name him Lin You? Let his name carry your lineage!"
"Sounds good..."
