“We have the heating on in the hall, so it’s warm.”
Hu Tao, quick-witted, made up a casual excuse.
"Your reason for keeping your doors open is unbelievable."
Qi Liangliang checked off the orders while raising questions.
Liyue, the abode of immortals.
"Morax, you've gone far enough! Even I almost couldn't find you."
Barbatos sighed as he approached Zhongli and sat down on the stone bench.
What was Heliseg's reaction today?
Zhongli curiously inquired about the information.
"Hmph, I reckon he wants to interrogate us both right now. But speaking of which, why did you bring them to the same room?"
"This was also one of Heliseg's instructions."
"You mean, the message Heliseg left behind before he disappeared?"
“That’s right. He told me that the messages he left behind had to be completed one by one in chronological order after he recovered, and only things that had already been done could be told to others.”
"Oh? Now you can tell me, right?"
Upon hearing Zhongli's words, Barbatos immediately became interested.
"Well, I might as well tell you. The first thing is to let Ying meet him; the second thing is to let a girl who met him once during the time his soul was scattered be with him."
"This girl must be Hu Tao, right?"
Barbatos, while drinking, guessed the answer with great interest.
“Exactly. I didn’t know how I found this girl at first, since the memories from the soul period are not interconnected. I couldn’t get the answer from Heliseg, nor could I talk to other souls. But fortunately, the Hall Master told me himself.”
After saying that, Zhongli leisurely took a sip of the tea he had brought with him.
"Oh? What a coincidence! But what's the purpose of his instruction? Could it be that he simply... wants to fall in love? It's not a good thing for a god to be swayed by mortal emotions~"
"Don't worry, we just need to follow the instructions. It's not our place to question things."
After saying that, Zhongli closed his eyes meaningfully.
"But how can you be sure they're already together?"
"They were both drunk last night. If they were put in the same room, misunderstandings would naturally arise, and then they would naturally become a real couple."
"Heh, as expected of Morax, they've thought of everything."
Teyvat, the Isle of Skye.
"Lord Tenri, I have returned."
The ruler of space, with a serious expression, walked to within five meters of Tianli and naturally knelt on one knee.
"Hmm, how's the investigation going?"
"Reporting to my lord, we have found the Descendant, but the person who accompanied her seems to have disappeared without a trace."
"Oh? Vanished without a trace? As the ruler of the space, is there somewhere Teyvat can't reach?"
"You jest, sir. I suspect this person has entered the Abyss. The laws of that place are not the same as those of Teyvat, so I cannot enter."
"What's the current situation with the Descendants?"
"Reporting to you, sir, she currently only possesses three elemental powers, but she is carrying an extremely dangerous weapon."
"What weapon?"
"A sword, and it seems there's a world inside it. Just as I was about to go in and explore, I was stopped by the power within that world."
"Hmm, I see. It seems this is one of the pawns in her scheme. How intriguing..."
"My lord, what chess piece are you referring to?"
The tension in the space where governance is in place is so intense that people dare not even look up.
"You may leave now. Don't pry into things you shouldn't know."
"I understand, sir. Goodbye."
As soon as he finished speaking, the ruler of space hurriedly left the palace of heavenly principles—the sacred hall.
"Phew~ Has my lord noticed something...?"
While controlling his breathing, the ruler of the space nervously looked back.
What she didn't know was that the chess piece Tianli was referring to wasn't herself.
"I hope you haven't discovered my little scheme."
at the same time.
Liyue Harbor, Harbor Road.
"Hehe, I'm about to make my first pot of gold!"
Paimon flew next to Ying, excitedly waving his little fists.
Strangely enough, Paimon, who usually complains of being weak if he doesn't eat breakfast, woke up the sleepy Ying as soon as he got up today and headed straight for Master Ding, the head of the lantern company.
Urged on by Paimon's excitement, the two quickly arrived at Master Ding's side.
"Good morning, Master Ding. The number of lanterns should all match up, right?"
"Oh? It's you. Here, this is your pay card. To be honest, out of the ten employees we hired, you did the best job."
When Master Ding saw that it was Paimon, he immediately smiled.
After all, Paimon's work efficiency is just too high!
"If I have the chance, I'll look for you again next year during the Lantern Festival when we hang lanterns at night."
"Hehe, you're too kind, Master Ding. I'm a travel enthusiast, so who knows what might happen then? Well then, Master Ding, we'll be going now?"
"Okay, walk slowly."
Master Ding smiled and waved goodbye.
