Chapter 33

Sometimes, many things cannot be thought about in detail.

Just like Osial right now, he was about to be driven crazy with anger, but he was powerless.

Perhaps this is fate; only what cannot be defied is called fate.

“No, I want to resist!”

Osial was burning with anger.

Recalling his life, it was all cruel.

More than two thousand years ago, in the Archon War, he lost to Morax and had been suppressed under this seabed by a rock spear for over a thousand years.

Only Osial himself knew how hard those painful days of being unable to move were.

Finally breaking the seal and preparing to vent, he found out in the end that it was all fake, all a setup by that old man Morax to achieve his goal. This made countless sorrows surge in Osial’s heart.

If there was nothing else, Osial would just think about it. Anyway, he was no match for Morax, so he would just continue to endure.

But unfortunately, the video exposed the Abyss Order’s plan.

Osial felt that this group of people from the Abyss Order really had no bottom line at all.

Did I, Osial, offend you?

You want my limbs, and you want to transform me. Is it appropriate for you to do this?!

[Gu Chen]: Angry and shivering, when will ordinary Archons have divine power, when will they be able to stand up! (Funny)

[Kaeya]: Looking at it this way, I suddenly find Osial so pitiful. (Funny)

[Seeing Seeing Seeing Seeing Seeing Zhongli]: Osial, it’s been hard for you. (Covering face)

[Venti]: I’ve seen miserable ones, but I’ve never seen one so miserable. Osial, you bear too much, my heart aches for you! (Hu Tao·smirk)

[Beisht]: Sigh…

[Osial]: Hateful, hateful, hateful!!

[Dainsleif]: At least you still have a chance to guard against those guys from the Abyss Order now.

[Osial]: Geo Archon, you must keep an eye on me, otherwise if I get dragged away to be transformed and really shake the throne of the gods, the consequences will be unimaginable! (Thoma·kneeling)

[Seeing Seeing Seeing Seeing Seeing Zhongli]: Morax is dead, why say this?

[Osial]: Good, good, good. I’m diving, I must prevent the guys from the Abyss Order from sneaking up on me.

[Osial]: Really, being suppressed is one thing, but now I have to watch out for people coveting my limbs. Is this the life an Archon lives?!

[Gu Chen]: Sympathy! (Smirk)

[Kaeya]: I can already feel Osial’s deep resentment. (Funny)

[Osial]: Wait, don’t dive yet, I’ve seen a friend who shares the same illness!

[Andrius]: …

In the video, the group had already arrived at Wolvendom.

This was once the territory of the Archon Andrius, and after Andrius died, his remaining soul guarded this place.

As soon as they arrived, they discovered the presence of Abyss Heralds performing some kind of ritual, and Razor was struggling to fight them with the pack of wolves.

“The closer to the target, the more enemies there are. Hmph, fits the style of the Order,” Dainsleif snorted coldly.

Gu Chen looked at Lumine and lifted his chin.

Lumine nodded, immediately charging up with her Dull Blade.

Dainsleif also stepped forward to help.

Although Lumine had always been under Gu Chen’s protection, she was by no means a vase without strength.

After going to Go Go Go Liyue, she gained Geo energy, using two types of elemental energy as easily as her own arms, easily suppressing the Abyss Herald.

[Andrius]: I was just watching the video for fun, and it actually dragged me into it. Speechless. (Qiqi·down)

[Osial]: Do you understand my mood now? (Qiqi·down)

[Miss Miss Keqing]: Actually, I want to know more about what Dainsleif’s words mean. Judging from his performance, he hates the Seven Archons very much, and at the same time, he says not to trust and not to hunt. This is really contradictory.

[Dainsleif]: Just the literal meaning.

[Seeing Seeing Seeing Seeing Seeing Zhongli]: …

[Kaeya]: Is it because the Seven Archons destroyed Khaenri’ah?

[Lumine]: Don’t get it, is there a know-it-all to sort it out? (Sucrose·well-behaved)

[Shikanoin Heizou]: Not enough information, really can’t do it. However, it can be known that because the Seven Archons destroyed Khaenri’ah, the Abyss Order wants to take revenge on the Seven Nations, and also wants to overthrow the throne of the gods in the sky.

[Childe]: This Abyss Order is really crazy.

[Navia]: I’ve discovered a blind spot! (Witty)

[Gu Chen]: Elaborate!

[Navia]: Everyone look, after the Abyss Herald in the video fought with Miss Lumine, the power felt very familiar. And Miss Lumine is a traveler from another land. The only person in Teyvat who can be related to her is her brother, right?!

[Venti]: Should be.

[Sangonomiya Kokomi]: Does everyone remember when we first met Mr. Venti, did Mr. Venti say something like "people like you, standing in the sun will surely become heroes, standing in the shade can also lead to disaster"? I always feel that Mr. Venti actually knows the inside story! (Sangonomiya Kokomi·pondering)

[Kaeya]: Brother, don’t hide it, can you elaborate! (Thoma·kneeling)

[Diluc]: Such implications are even more suspicious when they are verified by the bard.

[Gu Chen]: I hate riddle-makers the most in my life! (Angry)

[Paimon]: But you clearly have also become the person you hate the most. (Shrugging)

[Venti]: Ahahaha, I believe the video should give everyone an explanation. (Hu Tao·acting cute)

The progress in the video was fast.

After saving Andrius’s remaining soul, the group went to Stormterror’s Lair.

[Dvalin]: Holy crap, fortunately it was just looking for the Ruin Guard’s eye, and not having designs on me. Scared me to death! (Shivering)

[Gu Chen]: Is there a possibility that someone already had designs on you, but you were saved.

[Dvalin]: …

[Osial]: Haha, another one who shares the same illness!

[Childe]: Back to that place before, fighting again. My hands are so itchy. Can the Go Go Go Liyue prison provide a few sparring partners? (Klee·please)

[Paimon]: Gu Chen is standing on the sidelines watching the show again. (Shrugging)

[Seeing Seeing Seeing Seeing Seeing Zhongli]: By general rational standards, Mr. Gu Chen is training Miss Lumine.

[Lumine]: Don’t say, just watching, this Abyss Herald has some strength. Dain and I had to join forces to contain him. Wait, who is it, sneak attack!

When Lumine and Dain had the upper hand, a figure suddenly appeared and repelled the two.

“That, that person, could it be…?!”

Paimon widened her eyes.

She had always heard Lumine describe her brother’s appearance, and this person in front of her was exactly the same as Lumine’s description.

“Brother!” Lumine widened her eyes in disbelief.

“Lumine…” Aether whispered.

“Finally found you!” Lumine was very excited.

“Wait, Lumine, he just blocked the attack for the Abyss Herald… your brother seems to be with the Abyss…” Paimon was full of worry.

“Lumine, why are you with Dain?” Aether asked.

“…What?”

Lumine was stunned. After such a long separation, Aether actually questioned people and things unrelated to the reunion first…

“Aether, we meet again,” Dainsleif said.

“Lumine, you shouldn’t travel with this person. This person is my enemy,” Aether said.

Lumine was full of confusion: “Wait a minute, don’t say things I don’t understand anymore!”

“But this is something that must be said to you. Lumine, don’t come with Dain to stop me, don’t stop the Abyss,” Aether emphasized.

At this moment, Aether spoke about Dainsleif’s past.

But Lumine clearly didn’t want to hear these, instead saying: “Come with me first, brother, let’s go home!”

“Home… hmm, of course, where Lumine is, is home. But I can’t go to the next world with you to find a new home… at least not now.”

“Before the Abyss drowns the throne of the gods, I have an unfinished war with the Heavenly Principles…”

“Listen to me, Lumine.”

“I have already had one journey. So, you must also reach the end like me, so that you can leave the sediment of this world in your own eyes.”

“We will eventually reunite, but don’t be in a hurry. I have enough time to wait for you… our time has always been enough.”

As the voice fell, Aether had already turned and walked into the deep portal with the Abyss Herald.

Dainsleif saw this and jumped in pursuit, but Lumine, who rushed forward, grabbed nothing.

[Furina]: Everyone! I have a guess!
