I'm a native of the Xianzhou and a genius student at the University of Truth. The day before the professor with a plaster head was supposed to hand me my diploma, I transmigrated to a continent called Teyvat. Unfortunately, before I could properly take in this world, a despicable person from Snezhnaya captured me for experiments.
After going through countless hardships to escape, I was at a loss until the Dendro Archon gave me guidance. At last, I made up my mind:
I'm going back to school!
After years of being an exemplary student, my advisor pulled me into a major project just as I was about to graduate. When I learned what the project involved, I sat there in silence for a few seconds, then stood up and headed straight for the office next door.
The secretary in the next office was openly slacking off with a book in hand. After I explained that I was there to handle my withdrawal, he closed the book.
The secretary nodded. "Sure, but your advisor needs to sign the withdrawal paperwork. Please get it signed and bring it to me on the next business day. I'm off work now. Goodbye."
He walked right out, leaving me alone in the breeze, completely dumbfounded.
.
Fortunately, I was popular enough that I managed to leave the Akademiya and Sumeru before getting dragged into the conflict.
And then
I went to Fontaine to study.

The second time around, I kept my head down and stayed out of the limelight. But I never expected to accidentally violate one of Fontaine's bizarre laws.
And then I ended up in the Fortress of Meropide.
It's fine. Aside from not being able to leave, it's pretty free here, and I can even continue a certain research project I'd left unfinished.
Unfortunately, someone soon discovered it.
The factory manager here... no, the prison warden, looks at my experimental equipment and asks, "Are you trying to blow the Fortress of Meropide into the sky?"
I look completely innocent. "I just have a desire to learn!"
Oh well. Neither Sumeru nor Fontaine can tolerate me. Luckily, my drinking buddy enthusiastically invited me to Nod-Krai. It's in chaos right now, so it must be able to tolerate me!
