Genshin Impact : Eerie Teyvat-Chapter 239: Ch : The pledge to join the Arataki Gang

This situation was clearly beyond everyone’s expectations...

If joining the Arataki Gang wasn’t as simple as it seemed, didn’t that mean all of them would now be subject to "Arataki Itto’s" indiscriminate attacks?

Watching this unfold, Su Yuan also fell into deep thought...

Not long ago, just declaring one’s intent to join the Arataki Gang was enough to avoid Arataki Itto’s attacks...

So why couldn’t they exploit that loophole anymore?

Su Yuan couldn’t help but recall the incident with Neuvillette.

Back when he first faced the eerie version of Neuvillette, all one had to do was lower themselves and kneel in submission, and Neuvillette would temporarily refrain from targeting them...

But later on, that no longer worked.

Once Neuvillette had fully transformed into the complete dragon and succumbed to the eerie state, it wasn’t enough to simply fake a kneel—only by kneeling with genuine reverence and submission could one temporarily escape his attacks...

But soon, Su Yuan once again felt a splitting headache...

What was going on? Where were these memories coming from?

Even if they were residual memories from a timeline rewind, he was clearly in Inazuma right now—so why would Neuvillette, who was all the way in Fontaine, even come to mind?

Still, Su Yuan didn’t have time to delve into it.

Could it be that this situation with "Arataki Itto" was also caused by some kind of change in his physical condition?

But the most pressing matter now was figuring out what kind of conditions "Arataki Itto" would set in order for them to join the Arataki Gang and be spared from his attacks...

Otherwise, judging by the current combat strength of those present, wouldn’t they all be wiped out like vegetables under the blade by the eerie "Arataki Itto"...?

"Actually, the conditions for you all to join the Arataki Gang... they’re not exactly hard, but not exactly simple either..."

"Arataki Itto" looked at the group and slowly spoke:

"As the boss of the Arataki Gang, I represent the gang’s honor!"

"Anyone who bullies me is basically bullying the Arataki Gang!"

"To tell the truth, there’s someone I’ve always wanted to take revenge on... a grudge that’s been stuck in my chest, and I just can’t swallow it!"

"And that person is that tengu from the Kujou Clan—Kujou Sara!!!"

"Kujou Tengu? More like Kujou Simp if you ask me!"

"As long as you bring me Kujou Sara’s head as your token of allegiance, I’ll allow you to join the Arataki Gang, enjoy its blessings, and receive my protection!"

"Boss, since Kujou Sara humiliated you, shouldn’t you be the one to defeat her yourself, and then humiliate her in return..."

Kuki Shinobu spoke up from the side:

"Leaving something like this to others... doesn’t really suit your style, does it..."

But in the very next moment, "Arataki Itto" suddenly turned around, grabbed Kuki Shinobu by the neck, and lifted her high into the air...

"Shinobu, are you trying to teach me how to do things?"

"You’ve been talking a bit too much lately, haven’t you..."

"Now that I think about it, even though you’re just the deputy of the Arataki Gang, you’ve been the one handling a lot of things..."

"Don’t you think that’s starting to look a little too much like overstepping your bounds...?"

"You’ve gone too far. The Arataki Gang doesn’t need someone like you!!!"

Then, "Arataki Itto" snapped Kuki Shinobu’s neck without hesitation and tossed her aside like trash...

"As expected, humans should never be trusted. Who knows what kind of schemes they’re hiding in their hearts, what kind of poison brews in their minds..."

Everyone stood frozen in shock, staring at the scene—Kuki Shinobu... just died like that?

Wasn’t it said that the eerie "Arataki Itto" wouldn’t harm members of the Arataki Gang?

Everyone’s expressions turned grim.

This situation clearly showed that even if they brought Kujou Sara’s head to Arataki Itto, it still wouldn’t guarantee their own safety...

The rules of eerie shouldn’t change so easily.

Something unpredictable must have happened to Arataki Itto... something beyond anyone’s expectations.

But now, Kuki Shinobu was already dead, and she hadn’t had the chance to tell everyone what suspicious things had happened before they arrived here...

And there was another critical problem—Kujou Sara wasn’t here right now.

Would "Arataki Itto" really allow them to leave and go look for her?

Su Yuan even began to consider—maybe it would be better to just fight "Arataki Itto" to the death!

At least for now, he didn’t seem to have any intention of torturing people—he simply killed them quickly and decisively...

Su Yuan knew he still had 1.5 rewind attempts left.

It felt like if he didn’t use one now, it might be too late...

The sacrifice this time was already too great.

If he could just bring back a bit more information, maybe he could save more people in the next loop...

"Arataki Itto" seemed to realize this problem as well, and spoke up:

"I know Kujou Sara isn’t here, but to prevent you all from running away, one of you must stay behind as a hostage..."

"As for the rest of you, go kill Kujou Sara and bring her head back to me!"

"Also, the one left behind as the hostage must be someone who is very important to the group..."

"I’ll stay behind as the hostage," Su Yuan stepped forward and said to Arataki Itto.

"Oh? I was originally planning to designate my dear friend—the Traveler—as the hostage..."

"Arataki Itto" spoke slowly, "But since you’ve stepped forward yourself, Su Yuan, that shows great courage!"

"We of the Arataki Gang really admire people like you. Fine—you will be the hostage!" Arataki Itto nodded in approval.

"Everyone, leave quickly. Don’t worry about me—I’ll find a way to resolve all of this..." Su Yuan looked at the others and said calmly.

Aether saw the resolute look in Su Yuan’s eyes, and for some reason, he felt... it was as if the old Su Yuan had finally returned.

So, Aether didn’t say much—he simply nodded and led the others away from the area.

"Hahaha! Now that I think about it, that new ramen shop’s food was absolutely amazing!"

"Arataki Itto" laughed heartily, looking very pleased:

"Once those folks finish the task I gave them and officially join the Arataki Gang, I’ll treat you all to a meal at that ramen shop!"

A new ramen shop?

Su Yuan caught onto that key detail from "Arataki Itto’s" words.

So it seemed... before arriving here, Arataki Itto had gone to eat a bowl of ramen?

Could it be that there was something wrong with that ramen?

Maybe it contained bean products?

But if the ramen really contained bean products, shouldn’t he have been immediately taken over by the eerie force?

Why did it only erupt after reaching this place?

Still, regardless of the reason—this was a crucial piece of information...

If it really was something he ate, then based on previous experience, as long as Arataki Itto can fully metabolize and expel everything he ingested, there might be a chance he could recover from the eerie state!
