Chapter 19: Raiden Ei: That Year at Eighteen, Gathering of the Seven Archons, Standing Like a Lackey!

~6 min read 1,011 words

Within the next few hours.

With the arrival of the Anemo Archon, it was as if it were a signal.

The remaining Seven Archons arrived one after another.

"Let’s go, we should go down too."

Watching one god after another arrive, Morax said as he led the way down the pavilion, coming to his long table on Yujing Terrace.

To distinguish the Seven Archons, the tables were specially cast according to the personality and characteristics of the gods.

The place where the Geo Archon was located appeared particularly steady and heavy, the bright yellow desk equipped with dragon patterns.

Barbatos followed behind, sitting almost next to him.

Taking off the beloved dandelion wine and placing it by the table, the Anemo Archon boy greeted his colleagues very familiarly one by one.

Possessing social-butterfly syndrome, he treated everyone equally, regardless of whether they were cold or enthusiastic.

After the six gods were seated, they realized one was still missing.

Barbatos looked around and shouted: "Why hasn't Baal arrived yet? If she doesn't come, I won't care about her and will start drinking directly."

The Cryo Archon opposite him answered in a cold tone: "The time is still early, perhaps on the way."

It was strange that the Cryo Archon, who looked the least approachable, was the first to answer the question, but everyone present was not surprised.

Having known each other for thousands of years, everyone was very familiar.

Cold on the outside but warm on the inside—that was the Cryo Archon.

The Pyro Archon laughed and teased: "Barbatos, you are still the same, you haven't changed at all."

"Hehe, the greatest pleasure in life is placed in front of you, but you have to force yourself to endure it; it is simply the greatest torture."

Smelling the amber-colored wine liquid in the exquisite wine vessel on the table, the mellow and long fragrance was continuous, and Barbatos was almost floating, having long forgotten the dandelion wine he brought.

Seeing his gluttonous look like a lecher seeing a stunning beauty, even the Hydro Archon pursed her lips and smiled lightly.

Morax’s eyes were full of smiles, and he introduced unhurriedly: "This wine is made by the immortals picking the morning dew of Jueyun, using high-ridge Qingxin, Glaze Lily... dozens of flowers as materials, sealed in jars underground, and only after ten years can one get a pot; it is called Hundred Flower Fragrance."

Hearing that it took so much trouble to get this fine wine, the Dendro Archon from Sumeru sighed in admiration.

"No wonder the wine fragrance is refreshing, yet fresh and sweet; can you tell me the details?"

Hearing this, Mountain Shaper, who was standing behind the Archon, took the initiative to reply: "This is a small path; being able to get such praise from the Dendro Archon, I must not hide it."

"Hey, hey, hey, there’s also me!"

Barbatos hurriedly inserted a sentence, so as not to miss the wine recipe.

Everyone laughed loudly.

A small episode passed.

The gods took the opportunity to talk about their interesting experiences.

The immortals sat at the end, perfectly acting as the role of the straight man.

And the Liyue the Liyue Qixing, who were usually noble in status, could only do the work of pouring wine and moving dishes for the gods.

When the conversation became intense, Barbatos took out the Skyward Harp, intending to play a song for everyone.

Before playing, he suddenly looked at the Geo Archon.

"Right, Morax, has the Yaksha’s karmic debt improved since we last met?"

"Since we last parted, thanks to you, the harp music has purified a lot of resentment and karmic force; for this, I must thank you."

Barbatos waved his hand, not caring: "Hi, small matter; if there is a problem, you can find me at any time, as long as the wine is enough."

"It will definitely be enough."

The Pyro Archon teased: "Morax, you have found a good excuse for him; I am afraid that from now on, we will see this drunkard’s figure from time to time."

The Geo Archon smiled without saying a word.

Barbatos was unhappy and loudly refuted that he looked down on people.

My Anemo Archon life is unconstrained and loves freedom; how could I be hung up by a mere pot of wine?

While arguing, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a pitch-black vortex-shaped portal appearing abruptly in the center.

The gathering of the Seven Archons had a sudden change; the serving the Liyue Qixing changed their faces immediately, intending to call the Millelith, but saw the Archon wave his hand to indicate that there was no need to pay attention.

The the Liyue Qixing looked around and found that the other five gods were also accustomed to it, and suddenly realized.

The most powerful Seven Archons in the world were all here; no matter what assassin, coming was just sending their life, why panic.

However, contrary to the the Liyue Qixing’s expectations, only three people appeared from the pitch-black portal in the next second.

Before they could see the arrivals clearly, the Anemo Archon, holding the Skyward Harp, brightened his eyes and greeted them happily.

"Long time no see, you guy, you finally came this time."

Appearing from the portal were exactly the Electro Archon twins and Luo Li.

Seeing that the Anemo Archon was very familiar with the young man whose appearance was peerless in the world, including the other gods, everyone was not surprised.

The the Liyue Qixing were confused; they naturally knew the leading Electro Archon, but they had never seen Luo Li.

After all, the last time he participated in the gathering of the Seven Archons was a hundred years ago.

In terms of human lifespan, it was not impossible to live to this age, but it was rare, not to mention that the the Liyue Qixing had only been in office for twenty or thirty years.

"Sorry, I’m late."

Makoto led her sister to sit down at her main seat, apologizing to her colleagues. ===== CHAPTER 33 =====
