"Little people? Dwarves?"
Kutri's large eyes were full of question marks. This sounded like a subspecies of humans.
Could it be that humans also have classifications similar to Pyro Vishap and Hydro Vishap?
"Sigh, why think so much? It's probably just a different way of saying it anyway." Yu Jin waved his hand, no longer dwelling on the issue of his race.
"Heh heh, I didn't expect that besides those monsters, you would be so..."
"Malnourished?"
After Yu Jin's interruption, Kutri's gloom seemed to have dissipated quite a bit. Now he was even joking.
Originally, Kutri had a rough guess about the current Teyvat, but Dvalin's arrival directly presented the cruel reality before Kutri's eyes, making it difficult for him to accept for a time.
Once he recovers, it'll be fine—Kutri was tired anyway, so just lying there waiting to die was quite good.
"I also wish I could be like an ordinary person, even if it's fake." Yu Jin looked up at the starry sky, stretching out his hand as he spoke.
"What do you mean?" Kutri was a little confused.
"It doesn't mean anything. I'm just saying that if I don't find a goal, I'll go crazy and bite anyone I see." Yu Jin said with emotion.
The essence of man is a living corpse, a Hollows, an irrational beast.
The Dark Soul Shard of the Dwarf King, the Fire Seal of Gwyn, the Lord of Cinder, the death bestowed by Nito, and the life created by the Old Witch—these collectively formed "humans."
Even if these were false humans.
Dark Soul Shards bestow humanity, the Fire Seal binds humanity, death brings reincarnation, and life brings form. In this way, living corpses become humans.
But humanity will drain away, inevitably creeping outwards. When death or loss of purpose occurs, this draining of humanity becomes even more intense.
And the seal of fire is to suppress the draining of humanity.
As for Yu Jin, he had been burned by the First Flame, not to mention that the First Flame was now smoldering within him. For humanity to drain from him, it was not easy, but the chances were slim.
It was because of this that Yu Jin was even sought out by those bad guys from Londor.
First, they respectfully called Yu Jin the Lord of Hollows, then they boosted his power, and finally, they even found him partners.
Three, a full three! Besides Anri, who was tricked over, the other two were sisters!
Who could resist that? Sorry, Yu Jin actually could resist.
After learning that Londor was only using him as a tool to seize the First Flame, and was also hedging their bets, plus deceiving Anri into "selling herself," something terrible happened to Londor.
In short, Yu Jin's small warehouse ended up with two more sets of women's clothes. Thinking back now, it was truly a regrettable past.
What needed attention now was the goal. Undead must have a goal; without a goal, all Undead, without exception, turned into Hollows.
Only this point, Yu Jin dared not gamble. If he lost his goal, the world would probably become very ugly, and then all his efforts would be in vain.
So, Yu Jin needed to find a goal. He simply chose the impossible goal of "making everyone free from suffering."
"Uh..., very good, having something to look forward to is a good thing. Don't be like me and become a salted fish." Kutri looked at the calm Yu Jin, fine sweat seeping from his forehead.
If those things inside Yu Jin were to escape... Kutri thought about it and decided that Teyvat, now controlled by humans, was quite good.
"Salted fish? Have you finally calmed down now?" Yu Jin looked at the joking Kutri and smiled.
"I've calmed down. What can I do if I don't? Run into the continent and fight those 'The Seven Archons'?" Kutri had resigned himself to his fate.
"Besides, even if I did that, would you just watch?" Kutri glanced at Yu Jin. If his guess was correct, Yu Jin also had a good impression of humans.
"Of course I wouldn't just watch." Yu Jin nodded, then egged him on: "I'll clear everyone out, and then cheer you on. How about it? Want to try it now?"
"No." Kutri's eyelids drooped. If he were in his prime, he would definitely try, but now, it would be tough.
"Try it, I really want to see you guys fight."
"No."
"You're so weak."
"You're so annoying."
...The wind was very noisy. On the beach, where waves crashed, a spatial rift suddenly opened, and four staggering figures emerged from it.
One was tall and eerie, the other three were short and bloated—it was Enjou and his group, who had crossed the sea!
"Ugh—"
Enka lay on the beach, constantly dry heaving.
"En... Enjou, your teleportation technique is really bad. When... when I advance, I will definitely... definitely show you what a true Abyss Passage is."
Enka lay on the ground for a long time without throwing up anything. Instead, its purple fur became messy, looking as if it had been ruffled by a large hand.
"Heh heh, you become an Apostle? By then, I'll probably be a Baptizer." Enjou looked at the dizzy Enka and immediately mocked him.
"En... Enjou, your technique, indeed... indeed needs improvement." Ensa, beside him, dipped his head into the water, hoping to clear his mind.
"What? Ensa, you're saying that too?" Enjou fell into deep thought. Could his technique really be that bad?
"It's that bad!" Enka affirmed with a decisive nod. They hadn't not gone out with an Apostle before, but such a perilous Abyss Passage, this was truly their first time experiencing it.
Have you ever seen a teleportation passage full of holes? If they hadn't reacted quickly, they might have been sent who knows where by now.
"Someone! Stop talking, hide! Enjou, you transform into human form and scout for information!" Enyu gazed into the distance and saw a figure strolling on the beach.
So he made a quick decision and immediately thought of countermeasures.
Enyu looked around and found the beach to be so empty, not even a single exposed reef.
"Climb a tree!" But this didn't stump Enyu. He gave a few instructions to his companions behind him, then instantly teleported to a tree.
"Whoosh!"
"Whoosh!"
The sound of air tearing came. Enyu looked to his side and saw Enka and Ensa on the same branch as him.
"Why did you guys come up here!" Enyu growled in a low voice. The tree wasn't big to begin with, and now with three Abyss Mages squeezed onto it, it would probably be easily noticed as abnormal.
"Heh heh, Enyu, you wouldn't want to be discovered because Enka and I are too stupid, would you?" Enka was self-aware; he knew that without Enyu, he would probably be discovered immediately.
"Exactly! What's more, Enka and I can't disguise ourselves at all." Ensa nodded in agreement.
"You guys..." Enyu was about to say something when he saw the innocent eyes of his companions. This made all his words turn into a sigh.
"Sigh—, never mind, just follow my movements." Enyu sighed, then pulled in his feet and said.
He looked down, where Enjou had already finished transforming.
At this moment, Enjou had transformed into a blond, blue-eyed Mondstadter. That was a passerby he had glimpsed from afar. Now, borrowing his appearance should be fine.
After all, Enjou didn't think he could cross the sea to cause him trouble.
After tidying his clothes and ensuring there were no flaws, Enjou walked straight along the beach towards the distant figure.
That person seemed to be a warrior, wearing purple samurai armor characteristic of Inazuma, and a somewhat tattered straw hat on his head.
"Hey! Big brother, how are you!"
Enjou smiled, greeted him, and walked up to him.
"Hmm? A foreigner?" The samurai heard Enjou's voice, turned his head, looked at Enjou, and his tone was a little excited.
"Yes, yes, yes, a foreigner. I'm new here and have some questions I'd like to ask." Enjou rubbed his hands with a smile.
"Still new?" The samurai became even more excited.
"Just arrived." Enjou nodded, his smile growing even brighter.
"That's great, foreigner, let me test my sword!"
"????"
