[Genshin Impact] Why Is a Cannon Fodder Like Me in the Gacha Pool?

I got added to the banner before I'd even met the Traveler, and the Traveler I just met keeps calling me their wife. But I'm a guy! A real man!

The protagonist has an adult male build, red hair, golden eyes, and long hair falling down his back. He looks like a red Samoyed, has a Pyro Vision, a fiery temper, and a strong sense of justice. He's a chuunibyou who has no shame because he's so thick-headed. Due to the System, his body is hotter than normal, so he dresses lightly. Pairing: Arataki Itto

It's normal for someone who transmigrates to become an orphan, but why did I have to become such a tiny orphan?

At ten at night on Narukami Island, in a little grass hut in Byakko Plain, a baby who looked about three months old was crying in a cradle.

Zhu Yu: "I'm really not the one crying. This is just what babies are like."

Zhu Yu: "Help! Is anyone there? Somebody, come save me!"

System: "Ding! The System has arrived. Wait, why have you become so small?"

Zhu Yu: "How should I know? Find me some food, quick. I feel like I'm about to starve to death."

System: "Hold on. I'll go look right away."

The System turned into a glowing orb like a Slime and rushed out the door.

As time passed, Zhu Yu grew weaker and weaker.

System: "I found one! I found a nursing fox. You're saved."

Zhu Yu: "I'm starving to death."

The System placed the fox beside Zhu Yu and adjusted Zhu Yu's position.

System: "Come on, drink!"

Zhu Yu found the right spot and drank desperately, but stopped after a while.

System: "Are you full?"

Zhu Yu: "No, there wasn't enough, but at least I'm not getting weaker anymore."

System: "Then I'll go look for more."

A soft laugh came from outside the door, and a pink figure appeared. "I wondered how a Slime could get into my Grand Narukami Shrine to steal my fox. So it was you, little one."

System: "Waaah! I've been followed! We're going to be killed to keep this quiet! I'm sorry, Host. This is all my fault. I'll protect you, even if we have to go to another world!"

Zhu Yu: "Holy crap, Yae Miko! This is Genshin Impact!!!"

Yae Miko: "Don't cry, little one. I haven't done anything to you."

Yae Miko couldn't hear my conversation with the System. She only saw the System suddenly burst into tears, then watched me start wailing too.

Yae Miko's eyes flashed. "Stop crying. How about I find you a foster mother?"

The System looked at Yae Miko with tear-filled eyes and a bewildered expression. "?"

Without waiting for the System to refuse, Yae Miko picked me up and carried me away. The System had no choice but to follow her. It couldn't win in a fight, the System had no attack power, I was just a baby, and she had a hostage. We were in a desperate situation.

Hostage Zhu Yu: "…"

Yae Miko brought us to Inazuma City. I fell into deep thought when I saw the purple figure before me.

Zhu Yu: "I don't think I'm going to survive today."

System: "I'll keep you alive. This body of yours has incredibly strong vitality. As long as your will to live is strong enough, you won't die. The only drawback is that your body temperature is a little higher than normal."

Zhu Yu: "Really?! I'll give it a try. I don't want to die again!"

A red light flashed in Zhu Yu's swaddling clothes, and a red Vision glimmered.

Raiden Ei: "Oh? Interesting."

Yae Miko: "Well, do you want to adopt him?"

Theme: I haven't seen a story with Itto as the pairing, so I wanted to write one myself.
