Well, well, well. Right after yesterday's letter, here's another one from me. Don't worry, there won't be any tomorrow. Come to think of it, are you too sad about it to read this letter, little one? If so, rest assured. It won't make any difference whether you read this letter or not, because I don't put sappy words into a letter. You, little one, are a fun person. It would be much more interesting to see your reactions in person. Right, here are a few Sakura Blooms that I collected in my spare time. To preserve them for a long time, you might want to make them into a bookmark, and put it between the pages of your favorite light novel. How about... I personally recommend one to you? | |

Mmm, birthdays are meant to be enjoyed, you know? How could you possibly have a birthday without also having a little bit of fun? So, under the auspices of the Yae Publishing House, I've organized a short light novel writing competition. Whoever can write the most engrossing and exciting short light novel on the spot and within the time limit will receive a publishing contract for their work, right then and there! Naturally, this task is even more taxing for the judges themselves, and so their table will need to be piled high with the best Fried Tofu and cool drinks, and of course an unlimited stream of snacks. Why not join me up there as a judge, little one? Sit and chat with me while we enjoy the sight of all those aspiring authors tying themselves into knots trying to tie up their plots... Don't you think that sounds divine? | |

Little one, I haven't seen much of you around the shrine lately. Let me guess... Ah, your travels must have been smooth-sailing, and you made many new friends, so much so that you feel you no longer need my blessings? Hmm, if that's indeed the case, then my birthday celebration has to be exceptionally entertaining, one so memorable that you'll never forget it. That's why this year, I'm planning to have Yae Publishing House hold a ramen eating contest together with Kiminami Restaurant. Quite a few promising contenders have already signed up, hehe. Of course, the rewards are bound to be generous. Win the first round, and you'll receive a signed copy of Yae Publishing House's best-selling light novel. On top of that make it to the semifinals, and you'll be awarded a ramen voucher, with which you get to enjoy six months of free ramen at Kiminami Restaurant. As for the grand prize... well, let's just say it's a little something that I've personally prepared, hehe... Little one, I'm sure you and Paimon wouldn't miss such a delightful opportunity for the world, would you? | |

If only the materials I rejected could be as entertaining as the expressions of the executive editors during our meetings, why, I'd never have to worry about finding a good novel to amuse me ever again. But woe is me, even the wise and beautiful Yae Miko must resort to tending to her fur on languid, novel-less days... Fortunately, I'm lucky enough to receive news about a certain little one from time to time. I hear you're about to head to an interesting new region, one known as an "Elysium" for drifters all across Teyvat. Do you have the good habit of keeping a travel log, little one? If not, why not come over and allow me to elucidate in person? If one day, you were to give up adventuring, perhaps you could consider becoming an exclusive writer for the Yae Publishing House. As the editor-in-chief, you know I take very, very good care of my talents. | |

Recently, the shrine's fortune slips have been running low, so I was about to prepare another batch of "Great Fortune" slips. Just as I was getting started, Ei arrived and said she wished to see me draw one for herself. Oh, my dear god... Surely she cannot still suspect me of a little foul play, even after a full day has passed? Fortunately, the slip I drew read "Good Fortune." A most convenient result, wouldn't you say? I can guess what was weighing on her mind. Ei thinks far too much, and allows herself to accept far too little. When luck smiles upon you, you ought simply to be pleased and take it. Life is much easier that way, after all. That is precisely why I, her familiar, draw only "Good Fortune" and still be the happier of the two. She was silent for quite some time, then said she wished for more tea. Very well. If there is one thing we are never short of, it is tea. Should curiosity get the better of you, come and draw a slip yourself. I shall have tea and sweets waiting. | |

| Oh, hello there, little one. Well, as you can see, I just finished reading this novel manuscript submitted by Yae Publishing House. The main character wakes up one day, only to find himself trapped in a time loop. As the same day just repeats itself over and over again, he must find a way to break the cycle... Don't you find this idea quite entertaining? I have a feeling that this novel will be a great hit~ But tell me, if you were to be stuck in a time loop today and had to celebrate my birthday for all eternity, would you consider breaking free? Hehe~ | |
| Well, well, well. Why the sudden visit, little one? Oh, you have something to give me, don't you? No? Really? I can already smell the fragrance of Fried Tofu, you know~ Eating the Fried Tofu you gave me and sampling the newest works from Yae Publishing House... Yes, that does seem nice. Huh? Your eyes must be playing tricks on you. My ears were not twitching with happiness just now— It was just a falling sakura petal. | |
| Finally seen my tails, you say? Hehe, you do realize this is just a dream, do you? Do you un—der—stand? Hehe, even in your dreams, you see me. How did you know tonight's my birthday? When the day breaks, be good and bring a basket of Fried Tofu to the Grand Narukami Shrine, will you? | |
| Oh my... Just as I'm about to enjoy some crispy Fried Tofu all to myself, in stroll you little rascals. So, you managed to sniff this place out... Your senses are as sharp as ever, huh. Glad to see that you guys haven't been slacking on your training. Sadly, there's just one portion — and it's all mine. Why don't you pester the person who made me this bento? I'm sure our darling Traveler will just melt seeing your hungry little faces and won't be able to resist whipping you up a whole banquet! | |
| A chance encounter under the cherry blossom trees isn't something that happens every day. So shouldn't we raise a glass to celebrate, oh little one? You want to know what I was doing earlier? Well, well, I was thinking about the opening lines of that new novel Yae Publishing House is going to put out... Hmm... the moment the cherry blossoms fall, the fragrance drifting from a lunchbox, and a mysterious traveler passing by just at that moment... Put these pieces together, and they might just form quite an interesting little scene, don't you think? |

| "Hoho, the Fried Tofu and Kushikatsu at Uyuu Restaurant are really delicious! Paimon wants another helping, please!" "Haha, little one, are you sure you are still able to fly after eating so much?" | |
| "Fried Tofu with Udon, quite the delectable combination. How is it, aren't you already dying to have a taste?" "Oh? I never said this bowl was for you, did I?" | |
| "This one still hasn't submitted his manuscript..." "Oh? What's his excuse this time?" "Apparently, it was soaked and ruined when he fell into a roadside pond on his way to attend the funeral of the grandfather of his wife's sister-in-law..." "Oh? Haha... What an intriguing explanation! I trust you know what needs to be done?" "Yes, I've asked him to come stay in the room we've prepared for him until he's finished." | |
| "Wow... I didn't even know it was possible to write a story like this! Light novels are amazing, Lady Guuji!" "Ohoho, don't underestimate the ingenuity of humans, young one. Though do bear in mind... You should be addressing me as 'Editor-in-Chief.'” |
