Chapter 30

"Riddle Man?"

"Young Lady Sango, is this the Riddle Man we understand?"

Hainan Island,

Wu Lang stared at the comments on the video,

puzzled.

"Well…"

"Probably, right?"

"I'm not entirely sure either."

Xin Hai rubbed her chin,

indicating she couldn't be certain either.

Windy: "Hehe, is this Riddle Man you're talking about serious?"

Windy: "Is this the Riddle Man we understand?"

Brother Dan Heng: "Perhaps not."

Brother Dan Heng: "The Riddle Man they refer to should denote a distinct group."

Brother Dan Heng: "In the universe, there exists a group of people who dedicate themselves to undermining the certainty of language. The characters used to convey meaning become utterly unrecognizable in the mouths of the 'Riddle Man.'"

Brother Dan Heng: "In simpler terms, the 'Riddle Man' always speaks in a way that leaves you utterly confused and disconnected from any clear sense."

Stelle: "That's right—he's absolutely correct. I can only say those who understand, understand; those who don't, I won't explain further. The stakes here are immense, so don't ask me why. Because those who understand, understand; those who don't will never understand in this lifetime."

Stelle: "Actually, understanding too much isn't good either. You don't need to understand. Statement concluded, signing off!"

Welt: "Excellent. Stelle just gave everyone a live demonstration of what a Riddle Man is!"

"Those who understand, understand; those who don't, I won't tell you either?"

"That's quite vivid!"

"But why does it sound so infuriating?"

"I really want to use my great sword to teach this kind of speaker a lesson."

Outside Mondstadt,

Eula, on patrol, watched Stelle's lively performance,

clenched her fists involuntarily.

This way of speaking was utterly infuriating; just imagining it made her blood pressure spike.

Hua Huo: "Oh my, Little Gray Hair, you performed wonderfully!"

Sang Bo: "Sis, your way of speaking—I'd crown you the Queen of Understanding!"

Stelle: "Thank you for your compliments, but, Miss Hua Huo, who exactly are you calling Little Gray Hair?"

Hua Huo: "Hehehe, obviously you, of course."

Hua Huo: "What? Don't like it? How about Big Gray Hair then?"

Stelle: "Big Gray Hair? Wrong!"

Stelle: "Call me Galaxy Bat!"

Black Swan: "You all are truly full of energy."

Black Swan: "But may I ask a few questions?"

Black Swan's words appeared in the livestream, momentarily halting the cheerful atmosphere.

March 7th: "What questions would Miss Black Swan like to ask?"

Black Swan: "Simple—I'd like to know your thoughts on the three questions raised by Huang Quan."

Black Swan: "For example, the first question: would you feel fear at losing these unbreakable bonds?"

In a room in Penacony,

Black Swan moved with elegant poise,
