The good things had been said. Now came the not-so-friendly things.
Vishaps everywhere, Ruin Guards, Specters…
"Help! Save me! It's a Pyro Specter!"
The fiery fluffy little brother had a monster-attracting constitution. He could always draw monsters to attack.
But it wasn't without benefits.
"You drop, listen to my drop words. Anyway you don't know what to do, hang with me, not boring, have big big delicious food!"
The fiery fluffy little brother had successfully bewitched the Hilichurls that were everywhere in Enkanomiya.
At least the Hilichurls would be allies.
This greatly reduced the pressure of exploration.
Old Uncle looked at the Hilichurl Berserker beside him and fell into thought.
Had he played Genshin for too long? Was he really dreaming of the original demon?
But no matter what, Old Uncle and the fiery fluffy little brother's journey through Enkanomiya was still steadily advancing.
They found the key afterimage and began heading toward the possible location of Before Sun and Moon.
"You all, find the book! Understand drop! Get to work!"
The fiery fluffy little brother mercilessly exploited the Hilichurls' labor.
"Speaking of which, Fiery Fluff, after you find Before Sun and Moon, won't you have to go back?"
After the Hilichurls started busying themselves, Cid took the fiery fluffy little brother to search for things together.
"Indeed. But if you can't bear to part, I can accompany you to explore Enkanomiya the same way we explored the snow mountain. Anyway, His Highness the Prince trusts me and didn't set any deadline for my return."
Cid's mouth twitched.
I feel like… maybe it's not trust, but that he simply doesn't want you to go back…
"Then I really can't bear to lose the cheap labor you gave me (the Hilichurls). Accompany me and wipe out all the afterimages in Enkanomiya."
"Sure. Anyway… I… Humans! Not good! We've run into trouble!"
The fiery fluffy little brother had just started looking quite relaxed when he suddenly became very serious.
Trouble? Cid looked around but didn't notice anything. He used Anemo but still couldn't perceive anything.
Not having a Vision really was a disadvantage.
"What's going on? Did Dainsleif come?"
"I didn't expect you to actually know my name. It seems your relationship with the Abyss Order is indeed quite good…"
This voice came from a remote position behind them.
The moment they heard this voice…
"I surrender! Please treat the prisoner well!"
"Hey! I will never betray His Highness the Prince!"
Dainsleif looked at the one person and one Hilichurl in the distance simultaneously raising their hands in surrender…
You know, my mouth usually doesn't twitch unless the other side is truly too ridiculous.
Dainsleif: Their speed of raising hands to surrender was too fast—fast enough that I didn't even have time to attack.
But after sorting out his thoughts, Dainsleif still decided to proceed at his own pace.
"What plans does your Prince have?"
"I don't know. His Highness the Prince didn't tell me."
Dainsleif seriously looked at the fiery fluffy little brother, who had a clear and stupid gaze, then turned to Cid.
"I don't know either. Everything I know was told to me by Fiery Fluff."
Cid's eyes at this moment were full of mature honesty.
Dainsleif fell silent again.
"Then what are you doing here?"
"Looking for forbidden knowledge in Enkanomiya, then giving it to His Highness the Prince."
"We found Before Sun and Moon. We're going to deal with it, otherwise this thing is like a time bomb and could easily destroy Inazuma."
Anyway, the content of Before Sun and Moon wasn't really anything special to Aether. After all, in the original Genshin plot, the Abyss had already obtained the contents of Before Sun and Moon.
To put it another way, in the original plot, Before Sun and Moon was still the Abyss's private matter.
Dainsleif fell silent once more.
