Chapter 522

~5 min read 962 words

One person can match a thousand armies!

Most crucially, Kujou Sara is a very loyal figure.

In the game, one of her voice lines is: "Loyalty to General-sama is her creed for this life!"

If Barbara is Venti's obsessive fan,

and Keqing is Morax's tsundere obsessive fan,

then Kujou Sara is Raiden Ei's devoted obsessive fan!

She will execute the Shogun's orders without hesitation and regard anyone who defies the Shogun's will as an enemy.

Such a loyal Miss, who is still a little toddler now, wants to follow him.

Jiang Yan thought this was perfectly fine.

Originally, Jiang Yan had planned to hand the Millelith directly to Ningguang's management.

If Sara truly is willing to return to Liyue with him, then perhaps Little Ningguang need not take on another duty.

Let Kujou Sara directly command the Millelith and assist Ningguang!

By then, Beidou would control the navy, Little Shenhe the air force, and Sara the army.

Together they would assist Ningguang in stabilizing the regime.

Tsk tsk tsk, by then, let's see which eyeless fool dares to pick at Ningguang's flaws!

As Jiang Yan thought, his ideas multiplied.

However, the premise of all this is that the little girl before him must be willing to return to Liyue with him.

After all, the little girl has always lived in Inazuma; although she says she wants to follow him now, if he takes her away from here to Liyue, which spans thousands of li of sea territory, Jiang Yan fears the girl might not be able to accept it.

"Hey, girl."

Jiang Yan gazed into the little girl's bright eyes and said seriously:

"You must know, I am merely a tourist visiting Inazuma."

"I currently reside in Liyue, which is very far from Inazuma, you know."

"If you want to follow me, you must leave Inazuma and go to Liyue with me."

"Are you sure you have thought it through?"

Hearing Jiang Yan's words, the girl's eyes clearly brightened.

The clever girl immediately realized that Jiang Yan was inclined to agree to let her follow.

Then, without even thinking, the girl simply nodded.

"Big brother, I have thought it through!"

"I want to follow you!"

"No matter where you go, I will follow!"

"I am very well-behaved and obedient, and I won't trouble you!"

The girl was like she was selling herself, fearing Jiang Yan might change his mind and not want her anymore.

Seeing the firm yet nervous expression on the little girl's tender, round face, Jiang Yan's lips curved into a smile.

"What is your name?"

Jiang Yan looked at the little girl with a gentle gaze and asked softly.

The girl probably does not yet go by Sara, so he still needs to ask her name first.

"Name..."

The little girl lowered her head and pondered for a while; after a long time, she looked at Jiang Yan with some confusion.

"Big brother, I, I seem to have no name."

Because the girl lived in the mountains and forests, she had lived this way since she could remember.

No one ever called her name, so she did not know what her name was.

No, one could say she never had a name to begin with.

"No name..."

Jiang Yan rubbed his chin; it seemed that before Kujou Sara was adopted by the Kujou family, she herself had no name.

Then, he spoke to the girl:

"Little girl, since you want to follow me,"

"how about I give you a name?"

"Eh? Great!"

Hearing that Jiang Yan would help name her, the girl nodded very happily, and her big eyes became even brighter.

She was happy not only because she would have a name of her own.

But because of what Jiang Yan had just said.

Did it mean Big brother had already agreed to let her follow him?

That's wonderful!

Jiang Yan stood up and looked at the surrounding environment.

Since he was giving her a name, calling her Kujou Sara would certainly be inappropriate.

After all, he was not a member of the Kujou family.

There was no need to adopt someone else's surname.

Jiang Yan himself was not without a surname.

"Since I picked you up and you are a girl,"

"then from now on, you shall be called Jiang Daniu!"

Jiang Yan, with a mischievous streak, thought of a rustic name and said to the girl with a smile.

"Jiang Daniu..."

The girl felt there was something strange about this name.

But since it was given by Jiang Yan, the girl agreed to it all!

"Alright, from now on I'll be called Jiang Daniu!"

Seeing the little girl's simple, innocent expression, Jiang Yan couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Indeed, children are the most fun!

The girl looked at Jiang Yan laughing heartily with a confused expression, momentarily unable to figure it out.

Why did the big brother laugh like this after giving her a name?

"Alright, alright, I won't tease you anymore."

Jiang Yan reined in his emotions and vigorously rubbed the little girl's head.

"Really, how can you be so simple-minded..."

"That was just teasing you just now; your name can't be that."

After all, when you grow up staring at that name, you might just kill me.

Jiang Yan did not say his last sentence.

"Eh? I think this name is quite good..."

The girl tilted her head, unaware that this was just a joke Jiang Yan had made.

Jiang Yan smiled and shook his head, then, taking Shaluo's small hand, he walked along the small path he had opened with a single punch.

"Shaluo."

"From now on, your name shall be Shaluo."

The clear voice accompanied the figures of the tall and the small, walking farther and farther away between the woods.
