An Utterly Ordinary Sumeru Bystander [Genshin Impact]

The Akademiya is full of talented people.

Alhaitham, a frail intellectual.

Cyno, a super-fun card-game nerd (?)

So, surely,

one more perfectly ordinary passerby from Sumeru won't stand out!

So says Xigru.

Traveler: You mean the sociology scholar who can go toe-to-toe with a Fatui Harbinger, calls himself an ordinary passerby, but acts like violence is an art form?

Xigru: What's wrong with a scholar of sociology getting a little social?

Xigru is from the Xianzhou, but unfortunately, he's been blessed by Abundance.

Before he turns into a mara-struck monster,

he can only leave his homeland and search for a way to kill himself after the transformation, when he loses all reason.

As he closed his eyes and let himself fall into a chaotic star system

he transmigrated through time and space to Teyvat,

and smashed a local resident's house before spending five years washing dishes to pay off the debt.

Fortunately, he studied hard, made something of himself, got into the Akademiya, and became a member of the Rtawahist Darshan.

He does everything he can to hold back the spread of mara within him. All he wants is to live out the last few peaceful years of his life.

But the people of Teyvat sure know how to stir things up. The sky is fake too, what the hell? This is ridiculous.

Xigru: What else can I do? Guess I'll save the world while I'm at it.

P.S. Xigru has a Dendro Vision, is a long-lived species, and belongs to the fox tribe.

Warnings: A self-indulgent story with no logic. Read with caution.

Theme: Stand on your own two feet.
