Chapter 26

~5 min read 974 words

"Mythical battle! The end of the gods! It's getting hot-blooded!"

"To be honest, this is the first time I've known the existence and true names of these two gods; too amazing, worthy of being the Wind Knight, to actually know even this!"

"You are still too young; clearly one of them is talking about the former king of the Stormterror's Lair, alright!"

"Cough cough, seems so too."

"Hmm, for ordinary people like us, the stories about the Archon War and these two gods have long been lost too much."

"I'm afraid only in the books of those noble families that have been passed down for a long time can there be more complete and more records."

Countless people were sighing.

Because such history and the past have long since vanished in the wind.

Where could they know everything?

Actually, this is also normal.

In Mondstadt today, what is circulated more is the legend of Lord Vennessa, the "Liontooth Knight," establishing the Knights of Favonius,

and it was even compiled into poems.

That is the "Legend of Vennessa."

That is a ballad that has been widely sung since the reconstruction of Mondstadt.

It tells the story of Vennessa, the first Grand Master of the Knights of Favonius, from being enslaved to a series of stories that followed.

Even children in Mondstadt can sing it.

Many people have collected this poem.

For example, Acting Grand Master Jean's office has this book.

As for going further back, involving the Archon War period and the story of the God of Storms, not many people know about it; it has long been shattered in the past.

Involving the tower, there is a book called "Mondstadt's Tower."

But that tells the story of a foreign girl and an orphan during the Lawrence clan's rule.

No choice.

Pulling back several hundred years from this time period, that is the chaotic era—the great change caused by Khaenri'ah.

Mondstadt suffered a huge impact.

After restoring peace, Mondstadt even forgot the faith of the Four Winds, and the corresponding temples were all abandoned.

Not to mention that the time period is placed in the more ancient, even earlier Old Mondstadt, the era of the God of Storms.

Only from the very few ancient families at the beginning could there possibly be a little information in this regard.

So when the Wind Knight wanted to write such a story, it directly shocked the people of Mondstadt, making them terrified.

The influence and movement of this can be said to be far beyond the previous two books.

If this were to be released, wouldn't it be terrifyingly popular?

So everyone is looking forward to it and full of endless curiosity, carefully looking at these short sentences, understanding the information contained within.

"It seems that this time, the protagonist of Lord Ye Ruo's new book will be Lord Wind Archon."

"Haha, I just like watching this kind of thing; I hope he can write this story very wonderfully and movingly; if so, I think Lord Wind Archon will also be happy, right?"

"I heard that Inazuma has a novel about reincarnating as the Raiden Shogun; now we in Mondstadt finally have a work with Lord Wind Archon as the main line."

"And based on Lord Ye Ruo's description and the summary of this story, I feel that its wonderfulness is probably enough to beat that book from Inazuma."

"It's just that I don't know who this nameless boy is; strange, why is there no name?"

"Yes, it looks quite important; truly not simple."

"I really want to see this new work immediately; I have decided, I will go to queue up early on the day of release!"

"Me too."

Everyone was still constantly and enthusiastically discussing it; this heat will last for a long time.

And it will let more people know, and then spread further.

And this news was naturally known by other important personnel in Mondstadt.

After all, they were also the ones who bought the new volume.

For example, Jean, who was in the Grand Master's office of the Knights of Favonius and could rest a little from her busy schedule, was also flipping through Ye Ruo's novel and saw this information.

Even she was greatly shocked.

"Archon War? 'God of Storms', 'King of the North Wind'? And Lord Wind Archon!"

"How could it be, how does Senior Ye Ruo know so much? Is he planning to write it all out?"

"However, such a past, even I only know a little."

As mentioned before, regarding the information about the God of Storms, those families that have been passed down for a long time might know some.

Jean comes from such a family.

That is the 【Gunnhildr】 clan!

Although that history has long been shattered, there was a Mondstadt historian, Eckhart Gunnhildr.

He screened the broken legends left over from the noble era, integrated them, and compiled a "Gunnhildr Biography."

It recorded the story about the family's ancestors.

That's right, this historian himself is also a member of Jean's family.

And this book writes that the Gunnhildr clan originated from an ancient legend, which is the era three thousand years ago when the "God of Storms" and the "King of the North Wind" engaged in a melee.

At that time, on the wild Mondstadt ice sheet, the most powerful tribal leader among the refugees was 【Gunnhildr】!

So as Jean, who comes from the Gunnhildr clan, she naturally knows some history related to the God of Storms.

But more specifically, she doesn't know.

And during the God of Storms period, it wasn't that nothing was left behind.

【Windblume Festival】 evolved from that time and gradually became a traditional festival in Mondstadt.

Although most Mondstadt people have also forgotten the original origin, turning the Windblume Festival into a festival pursuing freedom and love. ===== CHAPTER 28 =====
