Su Yuan accepted Aether’s suggestion.
After all, he had wanted to learn how to use the Wind Glider for quite some time...
Once he mastered it and had one of his own, he wouldn’t be so flustered when faced with dangerous situations in the future.
Following Amber, Su Yuan left Mondstadt and came to the edge of a cliff in Windrise.
She fiddled with something behind his back, fastening a device, then said to him:
"Su Yuan, now try it. Picture in your mind the Wind Glider opening behind you."
Su Yuan nodded and, just as Amber instructed, imagined the Wind Glider unfurling in his mind...
Moments later, he heard a whoosh—and a Wind Glider suddenly spread open from his back!
"My goodness! I honestly never knew how exactly a Wind Glider was attached to a person’s back..." Su Yuan exclaimed in surprise.
"And what’s more, right now, even though there isn’t really anything mounted there, I can clearly feel my body closely connected to the Wind Glider!"
"This is all thanks to Lord Barbatos’ power and blessing. That’s what allows us to use the Wind Glider so simply and effortlessly," Amber said with a smile.
"Alright then, Su Yuan, now try retracting the Wind Glider."
Su Yuan nodded, and with just a thought, the Wind Glider vanished from his back, as though it had never been there at all.
"Perfect, Su Yuan! You’ve already mastered opening and closing the Wind Glider. Next, let’s move straight on to the Wind Glider Flight License Exam!" Amber announced.
"Uh..." Hearing this, Su Yuan was at a loss for words.
What? The exam already?
No practice or training first? Wasn’t this way too fast and abrupt?
It was like playing Sekiro: This is attack. This is block. Now here’s Genichiro Ashina.
Or like Black Myth: Wukong: This is light staff. This is heavy staff. This is dodge. Now here’s Erlang Shen.
"Amber, isn’t this pace a little too fast?" Su Yuan asked, feeling a bit uncertain.
"Is this really how everyone else takes their flight license test?"
"Of course not," Amber replied.
"But since you’re the Traveler’s friend and someone he trusts, I’m sure your ability to learn is exceptional. You don’t need to go through those tedious drills—you can go straight to the exam and pass it with flying colors!"
Seeing how much faith Amber placed in him, Su Yuan thought that refusing would only let her down.
It was just a flight license exam anyway—what could be so difficult?
He’d just have to go for it!
Then, under Amber’s guidance, Su Yuan walked to the edge of the cliff.
Amber pointed down toward a small blue flag planted below, surrounded by a conspicuous red circle.
"Now, let’s begin the first stage—the precision landing test. See that red circle with the blue flag in the middle? All you have to do, Su Yuan, is jump from here, open your Wind Glider, glide down, and land precisely within that circle. Do that, and you’ll pass this stage of the exam!"
"Don’t worry, Su Yuan, you have three chances in total. Even if you fail the first time, it doesn’t matter!"
Su Yuan nodded, suppressing his fear of heights, then leapt off the cliff.
With a thought, he tried to unfurl his Wind Glider to glide—but to his horror, it refused to open no matter what he did...
Feeling his body plummeting rapidly through the air, his mind went completely blank.
Why wouldn’t the Wind Glider deploy?
He had clearly succeeded just moments earlier during practice!
Struggling to lift his head, he looked back up at the cliff—and saw Amber standing at the edge, the corner of her lips curved into a strange, eerie smile...
Meanwhile, inside the Knights of Favonius Headquarters in Mondstadt, while Jean was reviewing some documents, a middle-aged man suddenly rushed in, flustered. Newest update provıded by NovєlFіre.net
"Master Jean! My good friend, Henry, seems to have gone missing!"
"We were supposed to go learn Wind Glider techniques from Amber together today. But now that the taverns have reopened, when I went to find him for a drink, I couldn’t find him anywhere!"
Hearing this, Jean’s expression turned anxious and alarmed.
She immediately said, "This is bad—Su Yuan already went alone with Amber to take the flight license exam!"
Back at the base of the cliff, Su Yuan had crashed violently into the ground.
He hadn’t died immediately, but all the bones in his body were shattered, and his internal organs suffered unbearable damage...
He could feel death closing in, yet there was something strange about it.
That’s right—why hadn’t his passive ability, the one resembling the famous sword Siming’s power, activated yet?
Ever since entering Mondstadt, so much had changed.
The death-rewind mechanism, his passive skill—both had inexplicably failed...
Wasn’t it supposed to be only Mondstadt’s eerie phenomena that became "free"?
Why did it feel like even his own body had also become strangely free and untethered...?
As Su Yuan was thinking this, "Amber" also descended gracefully using her Wind Glider, landing lightly and precisely beside him.
She spoke in a tone of mild surprise:
"Wow, I didn’t expect you to survive a fall from that height..."
"Who would’ve thought—both of you are ordinary mortals, yet the difference between you and Henry is really something!"
"It’s such a pity about Henry. He was so close to succeeding on his final attempt, but then a sudden gust of wind blew him off course. He crashed into a rock and accidentally fell to his death!"
At this moment, Su Yuan wanted to say something, but his lungs were too severely damaged.
He couldn’t utter a word and could only stare helplessly at the "Amber" before him...
"Amber" gave him an eerie smile and said:
"As long as I’m here, no one will ever pass the Wind Glider license exam again!"
With that, she raised her bow and loosed an arrow, piercing straight through Su Yuan’s head—ending his life.
Su Yuan suddenly snapped his eyes open, that same all-too-familiar, heart-pounding sensation rushing over him once more.
Feeling the sting in the palm of his left hand, Su Yuan knew he had died yet again.
He lifted his left hand and looked at his palm:
[Unfortunately, this is your first death today...]
[Remaining available rewinds: 2.2]
[Amber has already been corrupted and controlled by eerie force. The Wind Glider she prepared for you is rigged with mechanisms and malfunctions, rendering it unusable at critical moments. Be cautious...]
[To lift Amber’s eerie state, you may need to complete the Wind Glider license exam under her relentless trials...]
