The Embers of King's Teyvat Journey

"Phew! You're finally back, you silly goose!" Lisa breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Ember finally return.

Then she walked to Yu Jin's side, her breath sweet as orchids, and said, "You've kept the lady waiting for so long, how about it? Have you thought of making it up to her? You silly boy~"

Seeing the scene before him, Garuda's eyes shone brightly—the flames of the Bagua!

But Cole was different. She pulled Yu Jin back and said, somewhat embarrassed and annoyed, "What are you doing? The sun hasn't set yet. Be careful."

"Oh?" Lisa smiled, looked at Cole, and then walked over to Cole's side, stretching her body and revealing her voluptuous figure.

“Little sister, you need to eat more, otherwise you won’t be able to compete with me.” Ignoring Cole’s objections, Lisa ruffled her hair.

Ember was completely bewildered. He couldn't understand Lisa and Cole's actions. He had only ever felt this way when he met two of the three: Melina, Lani, and Marlenia.

"Alright, alright, Lisa, what's wrong?" Yu Jin shook his head, deciding not to bother if he couldn't figure it out.

He was now more concerned about why Lisa was waiting for him; did she have a question to ask?

“Don’t these two little ones have some health issues? I have some connections, I’ve found someone for you who should be able to help,” Lisa said to Ember after glancing at Galuro and Cole.

"Thanks, but it's already resolved." Yu Jin took Larissa's hand and expressed his gratitude.

Yu Jin was very grateful for their kind gesture.

"What did you say?!"

"It's resolved?"

"It's solved!!!"

Lisa covered her forehead; the shocks of the past two days had been greater than those of the past few decades.

Chapter 17 A new storm has emerged

2023-08-28

"How did you solve it!" Lisa no longer cared about the difference between men and women and stood directly in front of Yu Jin.

She moved closer and closer, seemingly trying to glean a hint of a joke from the gaps in the Ember Helmet.

However, she failed; all she saw was darkness and Cole jumping around beside Ember.

It's normal for Lisa to be so shocked; as a scholar, she knows all too well how troublesome the remnants of the demon god are.

Not to mention the Demonic Scale Disease that baffled the entire Sumeru. You must understand, Sumeru is a land of wisdom!

The problem that even they couldn't solve was actually solved by Ember. How could she not be shocked?

"Um... it's hard to explain in a short time. Let's go inside, let's go inside." Yu Jin thought for a moment and realized that he really couldn't explain it to Lisa.

You can't just say, "Gold, I used extremely high purity gold!"

After he came into this world, he always prayed using the Golden Law; anyone who didn't know better would think he was Rdagan.

However, this is unavoidable, because the Golden Law ruled the border regions for the longest time, and the prayers that were passed down there were the most numerous and practical.

Leading everyone back inside, Yu Jin couldn't bear Lisa's burning gaze any longer. He felt that if he didn't give her an explanation, Lisa would probably just stay at his house.

"Alright, alright, look for yourself. Stop staring at me like that, it's creepy." Yu Jin shivered, then pulled out several books, each over ten centimeters thick, from somewhere.

Lisa glanced at the books; there were three in total. They were: "The Fundamentals of the Golden Law - A Detailed Explanation of Regression and Causality," "An Outline of the Golden Law," and "Revision - An Attempt to Resolve the Problem of the Existence of Causality in the Golden Law."

Lisa felt a headache coming on. She never expected that the feeling of knowing each word individually but not being able to understand it when put together would reappear in her life.

Seeing Lisa rubbing her temples, Yu Jin suddenly remembered something and continued:

"Oh right, I forgot, there are a lot of concepts in this that you don't know. Here, take this book and look at it. If you don't understand anything, just look it up."

"There's more?!" Lisa exclaimed. This was enough to keep her entertained for a while, but she didn't expect it to be over yet.

"Don't be so surprised! This is what we use to teach literacy. I wrote it down too, you know. It's very interesting." Yu Jin said, taking out an even thicker book.

Lisa took it, and then she saw the words "Guide to the Borderlands" prominently displayed on the cover. Below the title were smaller words that read "Editor-in-Chief - Ember".

There are too many flaws; I don't know where to begin.

"What did you do before?" Lisa asked when she saw Yu Jin's name in the book.

"It's nothing, just a small job. Now that I'm retired, I've come here to relax," Yu Jin said, waving his hand.

"Brother Yu Jin, I want one too!"

"Me too! I want some too!"

Upon hearing that there was something that could reveal information about the Ember's homeland, Galuro and Cole immediately became eager.

"Alright, one for each of you. Here you go. This is the first book I've ever written." With a wave of his hand, two more identical books appeared on the table.

"Oh, by the way, what happened with you saying you were hiring someone to treat Cole and Galura?" Ember asked Lisa, who had already started reading.

“It’s Seno. We told Sumeru about the Doctor’s visit to Mondstadt, and they decided to send Seno to investigate. I happen to know him, so I asked him for help,” Lisa replied without looking up.

"Who is Seno?" Yu Jin asked curiously.

"The Grand Disciplinary Officer of Sumeru is very powerful." Lisa seemed to have anticipated Yu Jin's question and immediately answered his doubts.

"Oh." Yu Jin nodded, not understanding, but he felt it would be impolite to ask any further.

"Knock knock!" Just then, a knocking sound rang out on the door.

"Come in, the door's unlocked." Although he was a little puzzled as to who would be looking for him so late at night, Yu Jin still invited them in; after all, a guest is a guest.

"Oh, did I come at the wrong time? Such a wonderful time for studying, how wonderful." Kaeya said jokingly when he saw the many books in Yu Jin's house that looked like a headache.

“Yes, then may you go first?” Lisa retorted to Kaiya without any politeness.

"What hurtful words. Can't I even learn from them?" Kaya shrugged, ignoring Lisa's words.

"Alright, what is it?" Ember interrupted their bickering and asked Kaeya.

This guy is always elusive, so he must have something to ask him this time.

Kaiya, putting aside his joking nature, said somewhat seriously, "The new Executive Officer 'Lady' is arriving in two days. Aren't you going to go see her?"

"What are you looking at? Is there something on her face? Do I have to go out of my way to see it?" Yu Jin said nonchalantly.

"Ahem! That's quite a unique way of putting it." Kaeya choked on Ember's words. Then he continued:

"After all, they will be our future opponents, so it won't hurt to learn about them."

"Alright, I'll give you face and go take a look." Ember didn't refuse Kaeya's suggestion; he also wanted to see if every Executor was as special as the Doctor.

"That's good. The Knights will officially meet with her at Mondstadt Square the day after tomorrow at noon. See you there." Kaeya heard Ember agree, gave the location, and then prepared to leave.

"Wait, I'm going out too, help me move some books." Seeing that it was getting late, Lisa immediately grabbed Kaia to be her helper.

"Huh? No way? I didn't get anything and I'm supposed to be your laborer?" Kaya's face immediately fell.

"The Knights of Favonius must learn to help the residents of Mondstadt!" Lisa showed no embarrassment whatsoever, hoisting the book high and placing it in Kaeya's arms.

Then the two of them stormed out, shouting.

As Ember watched Lisa and Kaya disappear into the night, he turned to look at Galuro and Cole.

Just after Lisa uttered the word "Sumeru", the two of them seemed a little off.

It makes sense, their names clearly contain the characteristics of Sumeru, and everything they once had was in Sumeru.

"Want to go back?" Ember patted Cole and Galuro's heads and said.

"Hmm." Galura didn't have the same vitality as before. Unlike Cora, she was captured by the Fools on the way, and her family was still waiting for her to return in Sumeru.

“Mount Sumeru is the land of wisdom, right? I’ve heard that it holds all the knowledge of Teyvat.” Cole’s body trembled as she muttered something.

"Brother Ember, do you think there's any knowledge there that can remove the 'thing' from your body?" Cole looked up and asked Ember earnestly.

Yu Jin's hand stiffened slightly, then he smiled and said, "I suppose so, after all, that is the kingdom of the god of wisdom."

"I might need you in the future."

Upon hearing this, Ke Lai suddenly looked up and smiled, "Then Brother Yu Jin will have to wait for me to return after I've finished my studies."

The turmoil in her heart was swept away. Why was she born in the Fools' laboratory? Why did she have no parents? There were many other questions that had been tormenting Cole's mind.

But it doesn't matter now. She has only one goal in going to Sumeru now, which is to help Yu Jin find a way to make him normal.

"What? Why can't I understand what you're saying?" Galura panicked when she realized she couldn't understand what Ember and Cole were saying.

“It’s like this…” Cole looked at the anxious Galura, leaned close to her ear, and repeated to Galura what Ember had told her before.

"Hmm—" Upon hearing this, Garuda's little face puffed up like a squirrel's.

Poke, poke again, Yu Jin thought it was fun, so he poked Galura's puffed-up cheek.

"Ouch!" Garu, annoyed by being poked, suddenly bit Ember's finger.

The strong metallic taste immediately filled her mouth, causing her to release her mouth.

After spitting out a curse, she said angrily, "Don't you dare hide anything from me again!"

"Alright, alright, I won't hide it anymore." Yu Jin rubbed Galura's head and said helplessly.

"Also, you have to wait for me." Just like Cora, Galuro had a new goal in mind.

"I'll wait, don't worry, I'll always be here," Yu Jin said with a smile.

Chapter 18 The Storm is Coming!!!

2023-08-28

"Oh dear! What's going on? Why are you two making the atmosphere so sad?" Yu Jin stroked Galuro and Cole's heads, feeling more and more that this scene was so similar to the scene before the tragedy in the novel.

He pulled out two badges, Monger's pureblood knight badges.

Yu Jin looked at the blood-stained medal, then at the two beautiful girls in front of him, and thought the badge was incredibly ugly.

Then a flame ignited in his hand, and the Pureblood Knight Medal was refined by the flame. In the end, two orange-red bracelets appeared on his hands.

The bracelet is engraved with the sun, so let's call it the Sun Knight Bracelet. As always, Ember can't come up with a name.

"Here you go, consider it a gift from me. With this bracelet, I can teleport to you anytime, and you can come to see me anytime."

Ember handed the bracelet to Galuro and Cole, and casually mentioned its function.

"Wow! That's amazing!" Galura took the bracelet, looked at it from left to right, but couldn't figure out what it was.
