As Ganyu showed a dumbfounded expression, Primis continued.
Primis: While We were away for the last month, We still sometimes moved Our gaze here to see whether everything was going fine. During that time, We occasionally saw Eula and Shenhe sparring with each other on the Training Ground. In other words...
As Primis's words trailed off, the Half-Adeptus grasped his meanings.
Ganyu: They are…. aware of each other moves.
Primis: Yes. Hence, they also knew each other's weaknesses, such as how Eula needed to succeed in landing hits to charge her Lightfall Sword.
Ganyu: That's why Shenhe didn't allow Eula to strike her and always tried to block, deflect, parry, and dodge.
Primis: Correct. As for Shenhe, one of her strong points is using Talismans. But except for her Talisman Spirit, which she can summon instantly, other Talismans require time.
Ganyu: No wonder Eula always forced Shenhe into close combat, not giving her the window even to take out her other talismans.
Primis: Um. Now, We ask you this. What will you do if you face an opponent who knows all your skills, techniques, and weaknesses?
Hearing this, Ganyu gave it some thought and spoke.
Ganyu: The best way will be to find an opportunity to retreat safely before thinking of the solution…. However, if escape is not an option, then I will try to delay the battle, hoping for someone to come for help.
Primis: Yes, that's a good approach.
Delighted at the praise, the Half-Adeptus pondered deeper and answered.
Ganyu: But if fighting is the only option, instead of facing the opponent head-on, I will play safe and use low-cost moves to save as much of my strength as possible. I will also try to find the enemy's weakness during that time. And then…
Pausing here, he looked at Primis and spoke.
Ganyu: After finding an opening, I will attack with something completely unexpected. Like...…using a new… move...….
Primis: That's the exact approach Eula and Shenhe took.
Ganyu: But Your Majesty, creating a new move out of nowhere is difficult. Not only must the move be strong enough to defeat the enemy, but one must also be extremely careful because even a minor mistake can backfire, injuring the wielder.
Primis: True. But why did you conclude that it should be an attack move? Can't it be for defending, hiding, or escaping?
Ganyu: Huh......…. That can work, too.
At this, Half-Qilin went deep into her thoughts. After all, just like Primis said, it didn't need to be offensive.
Primis: There are more examples, like creating something that can help you contact your allies or something that will teleport your enemy away.
Ganyu: Yeah. There are many options.
Seeing her making such a serious face while in thought, a light smile appeared on Primis's face. He then started patting her head.
Primis: Alright, Our Little Cocogoat. Don't go too deep. What We were trying to say is that, unlike Eula and Shenhe, offensive is not the only answer, and you already understand that.
Ganyu: ...Um.
The Half-Qilin nodded absentmindedly as her attention was on the hand placed on her head. But then it was as if Primis knew all her pressure points there. He pressed them, which made her feel good, and she relaxed even more.
Before long, she melted, thanks to the caressing she was receiving. She closed her eyes contentedly before subconsciously letting out a cute purr.
Ganyu: Mrrrr~
Hearing that, Primis removed his hand, making Half-Adeptus return to herself.
Once she did, she recalled what she had done, and her face turned beet red as she looked around to see if someone else heard her.
Noticing that no one was near, she glared at Primis with puffed cheeks.
Ganyu: Your Majesty!
Primis: What is it, Our Little Cocogoat?
Ganyu: Please don't do that again.
Primis: Why? You loved it.
Ganyu: I-I don't.
Primis: Really?
He asked and leaned down a little to look directly into her eyes. Seeing his Divine Majestic face so close, the Half-Qilin turned red to her neck and averted her eyes.
Ganyu: W-Well.... I…l-like it...a bit.
Primis: Only a bit?
Ganyu: ...…
Primis: Ganyu~
Ganyu: ...…Y-Yes. I love i-i-it.
In the end, she told the truth. Primis could see a stream coming from her head when she uttered that.
Witnessing this, he let out a chuckle and pulled Ganyu in his embrace.
Primis: Ah~ Our Little Cocogoat is so cute. We can't get enough of her.
Ganyu: Uh…Your Majesty, you are such a bully.
She said and buried her head in his chest. She won't deny that it felt so comfortable and secure in his arms.
.
.
A few minutes later.
They separated and started walking again.
By now, Ganyu had no guard against Primis and was talking more openly and laughing occasionally.
Primis: So, are you getting used to your life here?
Ganyu: Um. It's so peaceful here.
She answered while looking around at the people who were living their lives with a genuine smile on their faces. It was as if the vast burden had been lifted from their shoulders.
Whenever someone looked in their direction, Primis nodded, telling them not to mind him. Though they bowed to him before returning to their work.
Ganyu: While everything is good so far, I still feel lost regarding what to do with my free time.
Primis: This means all is fine.
Pouting cutely, the Half-Qilin snorted and looked away.
Ganyu: Hmph. It's all your fault, Your Majesty.
In return, Primis just shrugged his shoulders and didn't deny that.
He knew what a workaholic Ganyu was back in Liyue Harbor. It was to the point that she did overtime almost every day. Well, it was not her fault, as the work in Liyue was just too much.
However, when Ganyu became Primis's secretary, he made a Time-Management Chart for her. Next, he ordered her to follow it strictly.
According to the Chart, one hour each was given for Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner. Then, there were some small breaks every two hours while working. There was also a specific time for her afternoon nap and when she had to go to bed to call the night.
Thanks to that, she now had much free time every day. And since she was not used to it, she needed time to adapt.
Ganyu: …Your Majesty.
Primis: Hmm?
Returning to himself, he waited for Ganyu to continue.
Ganyu: Two more people retired yesterday.
Primis: We see.
Not feeling surprised, he spoke.
Primis: The remaining Shogun's Army has decreased to 60%. Huh. ......…It is more than We expected.
Ganyu: Wha—Your Majesty, you know about it.
Primis: Of course We do.
He raised his head and looked at the sky before opening his mouth.
Primis: Most of the Shogun's Army died when the "Fleet of Fog" attacked for the first time. The remaining ones dwindled even more since some traitors and cowards must be eliminated, or it would affect the morals of the remaining ones. So, the only option left to increase the number of soldiers was...…...
Ganyu: The last surviving Civilians.
Primis: Yes. Per our order, Raiden Shogun forced those people to join the army. While most of them were dissatisfied, they still joined, thanks to the fear of Raiden Shogun's might. However...that was not the only thing. The main driving force was revenge. They wanted to make the enemies pay for taking away their family, relatives, friends, and comrades. In other words, their loved ones.
Ganyu: ...
Primis: But now that they have finally avenged their loved ones, the fire burning in their hearts has started fading. This is not surprising since revenge was their primary goal, which they succeeded in achieving...… Now, they want to live an ordinary life.
Ganyu: That's why Lady Makoto took their retirement letter calmly.
Primis: Yes. We notified her long ago that if some people wanted to retire after the battle, she should accept it without question.
Ganyu: But is it alright?
Primis: It is. After all, in the end, they are just Civilians who only get more than a year of training. They are nothing compared to those soldiers who had been on the frontlines for years. Letting them decide their own path is good for everyone.
Becoming silent for a moment, she asked.
Ganyu: Is Your Majesty ok with it?
Primis: We are.
Hearing his confirmation, Ganyu didn't press on.
Ganyu: There is another issue, Your Majesty. It's about the materials and currency. Previously, people could sell and buy the materials they extracted from killing the monsters. Doing that gives them Moras, which they can use for their convenience. But now, there are neither the monsters nor the merchants where they can exchange such things...… And since this is another word, does Moras still hold any value here?
Primis: Hmmm.
After contemplating it for a few seconds, he concluded.
Primis: Let's see...… This will do for now.
He muttered under his breath. Though since Ganyu was close by, she heard him clearly and showed a confused expression. But then her steps paused as a bluish window appeared in front of her out of nowhere.
Ganyu: Eh?
She was not the only one. Every person living in this world faces the same thing.
Next, some lines appeared on the screen.

At this time, some feeling washed over everyone. By the time it disappeared, they felt closer to the World than before.
This means that if they knew this World would be their new home before, they can now confidently say that this is their Home.
It's not surprising since the change in their physique removed all the issues they would have faced after coming to a new environment.
Like this, a few more things appeared on the screen one by one before everything settled down, leaving a single message behind.

Welcome [PERSON NAME]

Once this message disappeared, four things appeared on the screen.

Profile Shop Inventory
Balance: 100 points

While Ganyu was stunned on her spot, Primis nodded.
Primis: Well, this will do for now. With time, We will add more features.
Ganyu: Y-Your Majesty, what is t-this?
Primis: Exactly what you are seeing. Since every world has its own rules that one must follow, the same is the case here.
Ganyu: So, the currency here is Points instead of Mora.
Primis: Um. You can use those points to buy your daily necessities from the Shop. The things you buy will appear in your inventory. From there, you can take them out whenever you desire.
Ganyu: How can we replenish the points, Your Majesty?
Primis: For now, everyone will receive 100 points per month. If one doesn't overconsume them, then those points are enough for one to go through two months without any issues. If people want to earn more, they must wait since we will release some jobs soon. By working there, they can earn more points.
Nodding her head, Ganyu clicked the Shop and saw many things there, like rare things that one must spend a lot to find back in Teyvat. She even saw things that went extinct after the War.
Gasping, she spoke.
Ganyu: It's...amazing.
Primis: Right. So, is there something that Our Little Cocogoat is interested in?
