Seeing Yoimiya and Klee defiantly take responsibility made everyone present speechless. Finally, Barbara was the first to burst out laughing, and soon, her laughter spread to everyone present.
After that laugh, the previously serious atmosphere completely dissipated, and it was no longer easy to be stern with Yoimiya.
Ultimately, Acting Grand Master Jean stopped their bickering and said, "Alright, Miss Yoimiya, thank you for taking care of Klee during this time. I know Klee is a handful; even in Mondstadt, I often worried if she would cause any big trouble in Inazuma.
Seeing how well you've taken care of Klee, I am relieved. Let's consider this incident a misunderstanding and pretend it never happened. In fact, we also bear some responsibility. We didn't know there was a military restricted area nearby. If we had known earlier, we would have taken a detour, and then this misunderstanding wouldn't have occurred."
Acting Grand Master Jean's words made Klee overjoyed, her tear-stained face breaking into a smile. Yoimiya, upon hearing this, was also surprised and said, disbelievingly, "Acting Grand Master Jean, is, is this really okay?"
Jean smiled and said, "No worries. Meeting is fate, and besides, I also wanted to find an opportunity to properly thank Miss Yoimiya for taking care of Klee."
After receiving a confirmed answer, Yoimiya's face also lit up with joy, and she thanked everyone present one by one. Yoimiya's warm and cheerful attitude quickly earned everyone's approval.
Amber, in particular, being a fellow Pyro Vision holder with Yoimiya, had an incredibly good personality match. Before long, the two became inseparable friends.
And the people of Mondstadt were able to learn a lot about Inazuma's current situation and policies through Yoimiya's explanations, gaining an initial understanding of Inazuma.
The arrival of the Mondstadt delegation in Inazuma also meant that delegations from other nations would soon be arriving.
At Port Ormos in Sumeru, a large ship, representing Sumeru's highest technology, slowly sailed out, heading full speed towards Inazuma, while the docks were crowded with Sumeru citizens seeing them off.
The reason was none other than the fact that on this large ship were a Sumeru God, Lesser Lord Kusanali, an Akademiya Acting Grand Sage Alhaitham, a Sumeru General Mahamatra Cyno and his attendant Collei, a Logic School scholar A-Mao who was proficient in Inazuma's history, and the golden-haired Traveler, one of Sumeru's heroes, and her mechanical companion.
It could be said that if this ship were to encounter an accident during its voyage, Sumeru would definitely experience a magnitude ten earthquake.
Of course, conversely, if any group of pirates were blind enough to choose to attack this ship, their end would be extremely tragic.
Interestingly, Miyashiro only officially invited Nahida and Alhaitham; as for Cyno, Collei, and A-Mao, they were all accompanying members.
Originally, Miyashiro also wanted to send invitations to Lumine and Paimon, but considering the Traveler's characteristic of constantly moving around Teyvat without a fixed residence, Miyashiro didn't know where to send the invitations.
The Traveler was incredibly busy in the Sumeru region. According to Nahida's reply, the two of them were either holding a stone tablet, exploring the mysteries of King Deshret in the Desert region of Sumeru day and night;
Or they were carrying a magical bottle, searching for the Eternal Oasis in the wind-swept Hypostyle Desert;
Or they were accompanied by an arrogant Pari, undergoing various trials to eliminate the phenomenon of the Vana Varuna from five hundred years ago.
In short, it wasn't until the eve of the Sumeru delegation's departure that Lumine and Paimon returned to Sumeru City, learned about the matter from Nahida, and very naturally agreed to the proposal of traveling to Inazuma together.
Cyno's reason for accompanying them was simple: his own justification was that, as the General Mahamatra, protecting Lesser Lord Kusanali was his bounden duty.
However, those who knew Cyno well understood that his biggest objective for this trip was definitely the Genius Invokation TCG Grand Prix held in Inazuma. It was rumored that the winner would receive a limited-edition card back meticulously drawn by the renowned artist, Teacher Calx. As a card enthusiast, Cyno naturally didn't want to miss it.
Collei came because Nahida specifically informed her. She had already received news from someone that there would be a gathering of the Four Gods in Inazuma, which would be a good opportunity to ask a certain senior who wasn't doing proper work to help clear the God remnants from Collei's body.
Tighnari and Collei were ecstatic beyond words upon hearing this news. However, Tighnari was unable to go due to busy affairs, so Tighnari specifically entrusted Cyno to look after Collei.
As for A-Mao, that was also Nahida's request. At this time, under the effect of Irminsul, A-Mao had completely shed his identity as the Sixth Harbinger of the Fatui, and had even obtained an Anemo Vision as a result.
Furthermore, under Nahida's arrangement, he was able to study in Sumeru as a Logic School scholar, hoping that he could properly handle his karma and learn how to repay the old debts of history.
This trip to Inazuma was an opportunity Nahida gave him to let go of the past, taking him to meet Raiden Shogun, which could also be seen as putting an end to the grievances between this mother and son.
Of course, there was also Miyashiro's arrangement in this. After all, Raiden Ei at this time was no longer the stubborn Raiden Ei of yesteryear. This would give her an opportunity to make amends for the mistake of abandoning Balladeer back then, and at the same time, allow Ei to vent her frustrations.
Meanwhile, on Ritou, which was now bustling with tourists, many visitors noticed a black dot appearing in the distant sky, slowly approaching and continuously enlarging.
At first, not many people paid attention, thinking it was just a bird in the sky. But gradually, people seemed to notice something was amiss; this black dot seemed to be constantly enlarging, and its outline was becoming clearer and clearer.
As the black dot approached, people finally saw what it was. To everyone's surprise, this black dot was not some giant bird, but a magnificent, exquisitely crafted golden aerial palace! It was none other than Ningguang, Tianquan of the Liyue Qixing's Jade Chamber!
The renown of the Jade Chamber was limited to locals of Liyue or foreigners who had visited Liyue. For the people of Inazuma and foreign tourists who had almost never left the country, a magnificent aerial pavilion had an even higher prestige than the Shogun's Tenshukaku.
This made them think that one of the Seven Gods had brought her own palace, until a Liyue tourist informed everyone that this was Liyue's Jade Chamber, representing the personal arrival of Ningguang, Tianquan of the Liyue Qixing!
And Ningguang, standing atop the Jade Chamber, looked down at this vibrant, flourishing nation, a meaningful smile gracing her lips.
