Chapter 32
After the purification of Tevarin, several hours have passed. After the matter was over, Jean hurried back to the Knights and announced the solution to the dragon disaster. The people of Mondstadt were filled with joy and restored their former prosperity.
In a tavern
"Put down the wine!"
"Hey, for my hard work, just one sip, just one sip!"
Looking at the appearance of Wendy in front of him, Diluk sighed helplessly. After all, it was his own god, so it was not easy to say more.
"Is Mondstadt really going to end?"
Looking at Wendy, who looked like a drunkard in front of him, Diluk questioned his soul.
"Hey, street singer! Mond just finished the dragon disaster and is now in a sensitive period. Why don't you go and deal with it properly? Why come here to drink?"
At this time, Ying and Paimon also came to the tavern. Seeing Wendy who was drunk in front of them, they couldn't help asking.
"Oh, this. I believe in Jean. She is a good leader and can handle this matter." Wendy waved her hand indifferently and continued to drink a big sip of wine from the bottle.
"Hey! You really, how can a god throw all his work to others?" Paimon stamped his feet in anger.
"Hey?"
Wendy didn't say much, just snorted and continued to drink.
"How is Tevarin now?" Ignoring Paimon who was sulking on the side, Ying asked Wendy.
"Tevarin." Wendy heard it and put down the bottle, which was rare. She looked up and looked at the sky outside the window and said:
"It, it's going to follow the sky it longs for."
Wendy smiled faintly.
"Will it come back?" Diluk asked.
"Yes! It will definitely come back." Wendy took a sip of wine and continued:
"After all... it's Tevarin."
Wendy looked at the sky with deep eyes and said so firmly.
"Boss, give me a bottle of the best dandelion wine." A voice as cold as running water sounded, interrupting the thoughts of several people.
Jingliu came over and said to Diluk.
"Yeah." Diluk nodded and turned to walk towards the counter. After experiencing this incident, Diluk's thoughts on Jingliu have changed a lot.
"Jingliu, you are here." Paimon waved and said hello.
"Yeah." Jingliu responded and sat down opposite Wendy.
"Jingliu, are you leaving Mond soon?" Paimon asked.
"Your wine." Diluk opened a bottle of treasured dandelion wine and handed it to Jingliu.
"Well, there is nothing for me to do here. If nothing unexpected happens, I will leave today." Jingliu took the bottle and took a sip.
"Will we meet again?" Ying asked, looking at Jingliu's face.
Although Jingliu was still wearing a black veil at this time, the previous glimpse was engraved in Ying's mind and could not be forgotten for a long time.
"I will definitely." Jingliu smiled lightly.
"The Fatui collect the Heart of God, and each country will have an executive on the scene to make arrangements. And my mission... well, it seems that there is no mission. Ying, do you remember my self-introduction when we first met?"
"Well... let me think about it." Ying thought for a while, and then said:
"Travel to various countries in Teyvat?"
"Yes."
"So, we will meet again. And it won't be too long."
"Okay." Ying raised her voice, seeming to be a little happy.
"By the way, now that the matter of Tevarin is over, and the Sky Harp is in our hands, if you don't tell them, how can the Fatui get the Heart of God?" Paimon asked with some doubt.
The Fatui shouldn't know that Wendy is the God of Wind, right? In this case, who should the Fatui ask for the Heart of God?
"Hehe, the Heart of God will definitely fall into the hands of the Fatui. Even if I won't tell them who the God of Wind is."
"Don't you think so? Wendy." Jingliu glanced at Wendy.
"Hey?"
"?"
"Did you make a deal?" Paimon looked at the two with a somewhat strange expression.
"Although we did make a deal, the content of the deal was not this matter."
"The deal about the Heart of God was made by Barbatos, the God of Wind, and the Queen of Ice."
"What the God of Wind gave was the Heart of God."
"It can be said that although the Heart of God is still in Barbatos, it has long been the property of the Fatui."
Jingliu took a sip of wine and said lightly.
"What did the Ice Queen pay?" Ying asked in confusion.
asked. The things that can be exchanged with the Heart of God must be very precious, right?
"Ying, what does the Kingdom of Winter want to do? What does the Fatui want to do? What kind of person is the Ice Queen? These are all part of your journey, so these answers can only be found by you."
"Enjoy the meaning of the journey itself."
Ying looked at the mirror flow in front of him like a riddle man, thought for a moment, and nodded.
"Okay, I know."
"By the way, remember to return the Sky Harp to Mondstadt Cathedral." Diluk suddenly thought of something and said.
"Hey, isn't the Sky Harp a "singing" thing? Why do you have to return it?" Paimon looked at Wendy with some confusion.
"Hey? It's useless in my hands. I can't use the Sky Harp when I play, right? If Mondstadt knows that I am the God of Wind, I will be very troubled."
"..."
"As expected of you." Paimon stretched out his hand and gave a thumbs up, and then pressed the thumbs up in reverse.
"Hey? Let's go quickly, don't let the people in the church wait too long. "Wendy was serious for once.
"Ying, be careful of the "lady". "
Just when Wendy and Ying were about to leave, Jingliu suddenly said something incomprehensible.
"Okay." Although Ying didn't understand, she still agreed.
Only Jingliu and Diluk were left in the tavern.
"..."
"Why, you seem to have something to say to me?" Jingliu chuckled and saw through Diluk's thoughts.
"I didn't expect that after fighting with the Fatui for so long, one day I would be able to cooperate with the Fatui, or the executive. "
"Correction, it's not the Fatui. The person you are cooperating with is the individual who is "Jingliu". "
Jingliu corrected Diluk's words.
"..." Diluk was silent for a while, and then said: "I understand. "
"I want to know what you think of the "evil eye". "
"Evil eye. "Jingliu was stunned and fell into thought.
"You know, Teyvat is a continent with elemental power. The way ordinary people can drive elemental power is the Eye of God. Countless people yearn to get the attention of God and get the Eye of God. But how many people can really get the Eye of God?" Jingliu asked back.
"..." Diluk did not answer.
"So, if you happen to be the one who can't use elemental power, will you envy others who can use elemental power?"
"And the appearance of the evil eye gives you a chance, even if you know the price is to overdraw your life..."
"So, do you know what I mean?"
"..."
"Think about it yourself." Jingliu said, drank the wine in his hand, got up and left.
Leaving Diluk alone.
"Evil Eye..."
Diluk took out the evil eye that he had kept on him and fell into deep thought.
