"An aircraft carrier… can be flipped over?"
Hearing Kazuha's words, Beidou froze for a moment.
If it were an ordinary wooden ship, then running into rough seas might cause trouble.
But this thing was a giant.
After reading the manga, Beidou clearly understood just how massive the vessel was.
Hundreds of meters long.
Dozens of meters wide.
For a ship that size to capsize, it would require a once-in-a-century storm.
Otherwise, nothing could possibly happen.
"That's because the two people his abilities came from were notorious for crashing airplanes."
Han Feng casually explained the legendary crash records of Daigo and Shinjoh.
"There are actually people that unlucky…"
Beidou's mouth twitched.
She didn't know how much an airplane cost, but something that advanced definitely wouldn't be cheap.
Those two had crashed so many planes and still weren't fired.
The commander of their organization must have had nerves of steel.
After thinking for a while, Beidou sighed.
"Kazuha, you can pilot the aircraft carrier. Just stay away from the planes for now."
In Teyvat, airplanes didn't exist.
Every single one would be priceless.
If Kazuha crashed a few of them, she might cry on the spot.
"That works for me."
Kazuha rubbed his nose awkwardly.
It wasn't really his fault.
Those two pilots were famous as 'Crash Kings.'
Now that he inherited their skills, he also inherited the reputation.
How to Use the Reward
"By the way, Boss, how do I use this reward?"
Beidou asked while holding the card.
Surely she wasn't supposed to use the card itself as a ship.
"Choose a stretch of sea and silently activate it."
Han Feng replied with a smile.
"Understood. Then we'll be going!"
Beidou's excitement was obvious.
The thought of owning such a massive vessel made it impossible for her to wait even a second longer.
She headed straight for the exit.
Kazuha prepared to leave as well, but before going, he turned back to Han Feng with a question.
"Boss Han, would you consider opening a branch store in Inazuma?"
Once he returned to Inazuma, he might not come back to Liyue for a long time.
That would mean losing access to the manga shop.
After witnessing its miracles, he didn't want to miss such an opportunity.
And more importantly—many people in Inazuma had lost their Visions.
If the shop opened there, it could become a new source of hope, giving ordinary citizens the power to shape their own destinies.
"The Inazuma branch will open. You might even find it there before you arrive."
Han Feng answered calmly.
With the branch store card already in hand, opening one in Inazuma was only a matter of time.
Maybe this afternoon.
Maybe tonight.
It depended entirely on his mood.
The only question was where:
Near the Tenshukaku or within the Resistance Army.
The difference would be enormous.
"That's wonderful! Thank you, Boss!"
Kazuha's heart filled with excitement.
That meant he wouldn't miss out on the shop after all.
Once he reached Inazuma, his first task would be finding the new branch.
With that reassurance, he left and quickly caught up with Beidou.
On the Way to the Harbor
"Why do you look so excited? Thinking about piloting the aircraft carrier?"
Beidou teased.
"Not that. Boss Han said he'll open a branch in Inazuma."
Kazuha shook his head.
"A branch store? That's definitely good news."
Beidou nodded thoughtfully.
She could already imagine the consequences.
Once word spread in Inazuma, every faction would rush toward the shop.
A place that granted power like that would attract both:
The Resistance
The Shogunate
Even the Raiden Shogun herself might come to take a look.
"In that case, Inazuma's situation may become even more chaotic."
Beidou sighed.
"Chaos might be necessary."
Kazuha's voice turned firm.
"A prolonged stalemate will only drag the nation deeper into disorder. Better to break things decisively. Only through destruction can renewal begin."
War would inevitably bring casualties.
If suffering was unavoidable, then a short, decisive conflict was better than endless tension.
"You've thought this through."
Beidou smiled softly.
"In that case, let's head to the harbor. Once we master the aircraft carrier, we'll sail for Inazuma."
"Agreed."
The Arrival at Liyue Harbor
Soon, they reached the harbor.
Because of the recent appearance of sea monsters, the area was unusually quiet.
Only the Crux Fleet crew remained.
When they saw their captain return, they rushed forward excitedly.
"Captain! When are we setting sail?"
"Yeah! The sea monster's gone—fishermen might be scared, but we're not!"
"I'm bored out of my mind staying on land!"
Beidou laughed.
"Don't worry—we'll set sail soon. But first, I'm going to show you something big."
Something that would absolutely stun everyone.
"Oh? What big thing? Now I'm curious."
A voice sounded from behind.
Beidou turned.
It was Ningguang and Keqing.
"You two? What brings you here?"
She looked surprised.
"We're reassuring the fishermen about returning to sea."
Ningguang explained.
After two consecutive monster incidents, many fishermen were too afraid to sail.
That hesitation hurt both:
The people
Liyue's economy
So the two leaders personally came to calm the public.
Their reputation in Liyue carried enormous weight.
With their assurance, the fishermen finally felt safe again.
They decided they would soon resume sailing.
"By the way, Beidou—what's this 'big thing' you mentioned?"
Keqing asked curiously.
After defeating the sea monster, she and Ningguang had gone straight to work.
Meanwhile, Beidou had casually visited the manga shop.
That difference alone made Keqing suspicious.
Had she obtained something powerful?
"You'll see soon enough."
Beidou smiled mysteriously.
She raised the card and chose a suitable spot at sea.
With a single thought—
The card dissolved into streams of light.
The Aircraft Carrier Appears
In the waters beside the harbor, a colossal vessel suddenly materialized.
Over 300 meters long.
More than 70 meters wide.
An aircraft carrier had appeared out of thin air.
Compared to this massive warship, the surrounding wooden boats looked like children's toys.
Tiny.
Fragile.
Insignificant.
Its sleek design, its overwhelming size, and its imposing presence
sent a shockwave through everyone present—especially Ningguang,
whose expression instantly turned complicated.
A perfect moment of pure, high-grade envy.
