The Embers of King's Teyvat Journey

In Yu Jin's view, the Jade Pavilion was like a giant bomb. It was fine normally, but if it were to be violently struck, it might just turn into a huge firework.

At least blowing the old Osel back into the sea shouldn't be a problem.

"If it weren't for humans, you wouldn't know how many years you would have spent in prison!"

Thinking of this, Ember said a few more words to Oserdo.

Chapter 248 The Embers That Were Fished Out

2023-10-23

"Alright, just stay put. I reckon you'll be released soon."

Ember looked at Oser and said to him.

"Sure, sure." Oser was in a good mood. After being locked up for so long, she finally had a chance to get out.

"But what about that damn test?" Oser imagined his future happy times, and then realized what was going on.

With my current state, what if the seal is broken but there's nothing there? Won't that provoke Morax to personally intervene?

"Don't worry about that. I have a plan!" Ember waved to Oser and then used the hound's gait to escape the seal.

The seabed fell silent, and Oser looked at the empty seabed, feeling somewhat uneasy.

Did he... forget something?

……

"Gululu!"

Beneath the sea, embers pierced the water, leaving a striking white trail.

He is currently swimming towards shallower waters. As for why? Well, that's naturally to determine the direction.

When searching for Oser before, because of the seal, Ember knew the direction without even looking at anything.

But if he went back, he would be in complete darkness at the bottom of the sea, and Yu Jin was afraid that he would swim to some other strange place.

As Yu Jin continued to swing his hands, the seawater in front of him gradually changed from pitch black to dark blue, and then from dark blue to bright light blue.

Correspondingly, the sea also became lively. Many fish species that the embers had never seen before began to swim in the water, making the underwater world much more bustling.

"Splash!" Water splashed out, and Ember's head emerged from beneath the sea.

He looked around. Good, still in the Cloud Sea—because Ember could see the blurry city ahead and the towering Lonely Cloud Pavilion peak behind him.

Then he was caught in the net.

"Quick! Someone has fallen into the water!"

"Don't move around, just stay in this position!"

"I've really seen something today. Someone actually fell into the water here. He probably jumped down from the top of Guyun Pavilion."

……

After a flurry of activity, Ember was pulled ashore by the sailors like a salted fish.

"Long time no see, everyone." Yu Jin removed the large net from his body and greeted the people in front of him in a lighthearted manner.

The moment he was caught in the net, he knew the large ship in the distance was the Death Star. Mainly because the Death Star's wheels were so large that it was hard not to recognize it.

"It's you, you're not dead?" A sailor recognized Ember, after all, Ember was quite famous when he was on the Death Star.

His fame grew even more after he actually jumped into the dark outer sea.

"Why do you think I'm going to die? Besides, don't you know I've already returned from the Dark Sea?" Ember was puzzled by the sailor's words.

Judging from the tone of the people on the Death Star, they haven't actually docked since the last time, have they?

"They've been back for a long time? I really didn't know. When we were at sea, we weren't very well informed about what was happening on land." The sailor shook his head and said in surprise.

He's been back for a while now. No wonder he's a formidable figure who dares to challenge the Dark Sea!

"Hahaha, what's going on? I'll join in the fun too!" A hearty and unrestrained laugh came from behind the crowd, and then Yu Jin saw a familiar figure behind the crowd.

"Boss, we've retrieved the embers!" the sailors exclaimed excitedly as they saw Beidou approaching.

"Ember? That guy who went to the Dark Sea?" The female voice became somewhat surprised and suspicious. Then Ember saw the crowd being forcibly separated.

And the one who separated them was naturally Captain Hokuto, who was favored by the Death Star.

Yu Jin was a little shocked when he saw this. How could Bei Dou, a woman, be so strong?

"Is it really you? It seems you have quite a connection with us, the Death Star! Interested in going on a sea adventure with me?"

Beidou patted Yu Jin's breastplate heavily, deciding to invite him. Putting aside Yu Jin's strength, just for this connection alone, Beidou had to recruit him!

"Going to sea? You won't be back for months?" Yu Jin asked curiously after hearing Bei Dou's words.

The ocean had always been a dispensable element in Ember's previous experiences. So, he was naturally somewhat interested in traveling by sea.

"Yeah, more or less. But we're back now, aren't we?" Beidou nodded. For a fleet like theirs, sailing at sea usually takes at least several months.

The loneliness and danger at sea, the eventual shortage of supplies, and all the hardships they endured are known only to themselves.

Therefore, whenever the Death Star docks, the Big Dipper holds a three-day celebration banquet to allow the entire fleet to relax.

"Hey, what's wrong with you? Why are you in Yunlaihai all of a sudden?" Beidou asked, looking at Yu Jin, who was soaking wet.

Could there be some unknown secret realm beneath the sea of ​​Yunlai?

"Well... would you believe me if I said I came here to exercise?" Yu Jin scratched his head and thought for a while before saying this.

Considering that Ausel's matter involved Zhongli, Ember could only come up with such a lame excuse.

Sigh, he's such a good person, lying is just putting him in a difficult position.

To everyone's surprise, Beidou stared at the embers for a while, then burst into laughter, "Haha, I believe you! With your strength, I thought you wouldn't even bother coming to Yunlaihai to train!"

To be honest, Beidou didn't believe the reason given by Ember. But so what? The Southern Cross fleet itself held many secrets.

"But since you're so free, and we're about to have a victory celebration, would you be interested in joining us?" Beidou patted Yu Jin on the shoulder, wanting to invite him to the fleet's victory celebration.

Putting everything else aside, their experiences in the outer seas of Ember Darkness alone are enough to pique the curiosity of many crew members.

For these people who love sailing and adventure, the secrets of the sea are a pastime that nothing can compare to.

"Celebration party?"

"Yes, our fleet has a rule that we must hold a three-day banquet after docking to relax properly!"

“Okay! I agree! I’ll cook for you guys then!” Upon hearing this, Yu Jin felt that this was a great opportunity for him to show off his skills.

A three-day banquet can't all be held in a restaurant, can it? Beidou will definitely need to hire someone to cook, and Yu Jin has always been very confident in his culinary skills!

"Huh? You can cook?" Beidou looked Yu Jin up and down, not expecting that someone who was always cooped up in a tin can could cook.

"Of course!" Ember patted his breastplate confidently. Cooking is always an essential skill for adventurers, especially for a skilled adventurer like Ember!

It's time for the Southern Cross fleet to try the great adventurer's recipe!

"Great! It seems this celebration banquet will be different from the past!" Beidou nodded with a smile, she was very happy to try the new dishes.

The Dark Star wasn't far from Liyue Harbor, nor was it a short distance. With the propellers propelling it, the massive Dark Star quickly and steadily docked within Liyue Harbor.

"Haha, Chef Ember, you can start preparing! The kitchen is on the ship! As for the ingredients... you can use any of the strange and wonderful fish and shrimp in the warehouse!"

"We'll go down and buy the fruits and vegetables!"

Beidou stood on the deck and spoke to Yu Jin with great enthusiasm. Although she loved the feeling of sailing the waves, she couldn't hide her joy at finally stepping onto land after so long.

"Aren't you going to sell those things for money? Aren't you worried about the cost?" Yu Jin asked, as if to confirm, seeing how generous Bei Dou was.

"Mora is secondary. We can't risk our lives for something and then not enjoy it ourselves, can we?"

Beidou waved his hand, indicating that he didn't care at all.

Upon hearing this, Yu Jin suddenly felt like running away, because he was quite aware of his destructive power over food.

Although Ember was very confident in his cooking, he couldn't help it because others didn't understand.

If Ember really lets loose and cooks freely, Beidou will probably think he's there to cause trouble.

Just as Yu Jin was frowning, thinking of an excuse to escape, a familiar figure appeared before him.

Chapter 249 Celebration Banquet

2023-10-23

"Beidou... um? Embers?"

Xiangling and her good friend Guoba skipped and hopped onto the Death Star, where she saw a familiar figure.

Now Ember wasn't worried. Because Xiangling was here, she could at least make food that ordinary people could understand.

To be honest, many people don't understand many of Xiangling's dishes.

"Sister Xiangling, you're here again?"

"Hehe, your ship has a lot of exotic seafood, I've come to explore."

"Sister Xiangling, you must cook more sea bass this time. I've been craving your cooking for a long time."

"sure!"

"Sister Xiangling, please don't make those strange and unusual dishes this time, or I won't buy them!"

"Hmph! If you don't buy it, plenty of others will!"

As soon as Xiangling boarded the Death Star, the busy crew members put down their work and greeted her.

"Hey, I didn't realize you were so popular!" Yu Jin greeted Xiang Ling as she walked over.

"Haha, our entire fleet recognizes Xiangling's skills." Beidou smiled at Xiangling when he saw her.

The accountant initially lured the inexperienced Xiangling onto the ship for a bargain, but little did he know that Xiangling's culinary skills were in no way inferior to those of the top chefs at Xinyuexuan.

Her skill quickly won over everyone in the Southern Cross fleet, including Beidou. It must be said, this was a special kind of fate.

From then on, whenever the Death Star docked, Xiangling would always be the first to run aboard, using the rare fish and shrimp from the open sea to test her ingenious ideas about ingredients.

Of course, those are secondary. The most important thing is that Xiangling's cooking is indeed delicious, although sometimes she will come up with some dishes that they cannot accept.
