The Embers of King's Teyvat Journey

This time, the young master didn't just engage in small-scale skirmishes like during the previous thunderstorm. He went all out from the start, and the giant whale he conjured was not only wrapped in lightning, but its long and drawn-out roar could also be heard.

"This kid is something else!" Upon hearing the whale roar, Yu Jin glanced at the young master with some surprise.

Is he experiencing tinnitus? Why does that whale roar sound like it's coming from outside the world?

"Too bad I can shout louder than you!"

"Roar!!!"

A deafening dragon roar echoed from the shore, and Ember raised his arms high, his entire upper body transforming into a massive dragon head.

The dragon roared, and the resulting shockwave directly changed the direction of the waves on the sea.

Dragon Bite – a dragon-themed prayer. It allows one to transform into a dragon and bite down on enemies.

The techniques possessed by those who hunt dragons, offer up, and devour their hearts. It is a power that is both pure and overwhelmingly strong.

The dragon opened its massive jaws and fearlessly lunged at the whale leaping out of the sea.

"Bang!" The dragon's head opened its massive jaws and snapped the leaping whale in half.

"Roar—" As if to show off its victory, the dragon stretched its neck again and let out a louder roar than before.

Guior's Roar—a dragon-feeding prayer. It belongs to the high-level prayers and can unleash the power of the "ancient dragon" Guior.

One of the "legendary prayers." It can transform the user into a dragon, unleashing a deafening roar. It reduces the attack and defense of surrounding enemies.

Guior, the "Grandmother of the Dragon," is a rocky mountain that demands utmost respect.

The sound waves materialized, not only plowing up the ground beneath the embers' feet but also pushing the seawater aside layer by layer. With the dragon's head as the center, a huge crater expanded with the advance of the sound waves.

"Pfft!"

The sound wave swept over like a tidal wave, causing the young master to plummet from the sky into the mud.

Guior's roar can reduce the enemy's attack and defense. How exactly does it work?

Why not just yell at the enemy until they're half dead? The young master before us is the best example.

"Cough...cough cough!"

The Demon King's armor was deactivated, and the young master felt as if his internal organs were about to be shattered. He looked at Ember, who had returned to his human form, with a look of confusion in his eyes.

How come this guy has so many moves?

"Skippers, ladies! It's your turn!" The young master stood up from the silt beneath the seawater, waiting for his companions to cover him.

However, he waited for a long time but did not hear any sound.

"So you weren't the one covering the rear?"

As Yu Jin watched the lady and the stragglers running on either side, he slapped his forehead and exclaimed in surprise, suddenly realizing what was happening.

It seems that not all fools are willing to sacrifice their lives for righteousness!

At least the executive officer is not.

Chapter 438 Catch them all in one fell swoop

2024-01-22

"puff--"

Perhaps due to the severity of his injuries, or perhaps due to overwhelming anger, the young master stood there dumbfounded for a while before spitting out a mouthful of blood.

Watching his two colleagues flee to the left and right, the young master recalled the words the lady had spoken to him earlier:

"Very well, then you can draw the embers away..."

The young master initially thought the lady was joking, but it turned out she was serious. Upon encountering Yu Jin, she simply abandoned him and ran away without looking back.

"Snapped!"

The young master collapsed onto the muddy ground left by the sea, his eyes losing their luster, becoming a salted fish with no will to resist.

He just hoped that Ember would go easy on him and not beat him so badly.

"Crash!"

The roar of the dragon dissipated, and the pushed-away seawater spread back, the "whoosh" of the water echoing across the shore once more.

However, the young master showed no intention of moving, seemingly having given up the struggle.

"Little Deer, pull that kid up here."

Seeing the young master's listless attitude, Yu Jin became anxious for him. This guy can't die; he's still useful.

"Oh? Oh!" Kanoin Heizo only came to his senses upon hearing this. The executive officer who had been so imposing just moments before had now scattered like monkeys, which Kanoin Heizo found hard to believe.

Is the CEO really that incompetent?

Looking at his fists, Heizo Shinoin felt a surge of confidence. Could he perhaps try challenging an Enforcer?

But he quickly shook his head, dismissing his own assumptions. This generation of executives might indeed be incompetent, but it's more likely that Ember is simply too strong.

Thinking of this, Kanoin Heizo obediently ran into the mud and pulled the withdrawn young master up.

"Hey! Wake up!" Yu Jin patted the young master's cheek, somewhat confused.

"That's not right. The force just now shouldn't have been enough to knock someone unconscious. That's none of my business."

As if making a defense, Yu Jin explained to Kanoin Heizo in front of him.

With the power he just used, it was impossible to turn the young master into an idiot, and Gui'er's roar couldn't incapacitate anyone either; at most, it would just tear him to pieces.

"I'm not stupid!"

When the young master saw Kanoin Heizo and Yujin pointing and whispering beside him, he could no longer pretend to be stupid.

Fortunately, he stood up directly from the ground.

Standing still on the ground, the young master's first thought was neither to escape nor to buy time; instead, he pointed urgently at the fleeing lady and the stragglers and said:

"Ember, look at those two! If you don't do something soon, they're really going to escape!"

As the young master said, an executive who goes all out is an extremely terrifying existence in every aspect.

In just a short while, the woman and the stragglers' figures were reduced to mere black dots.

"Forehead……"

"Forehead……"

Seeing their young master jumping up and down in a panic, Yu Jin and Kanoin Heizo both scratched their heads. It seemed the Fatui weren't so monolithic after all?

After patting Young Master Pa on the shoulder to signal him to calm down, Yu Jin crossed his arms and said with absolute confidence, "Don't worry, they can't escape."

Turn around to face right; that's the direction the woman ran in.

On the right coast, there was a striking scorched mark. It was obvious that this was left behind by the woman after she transformed into the Flame Witch.

"It seems she learned a lot from that experiment. In that case, let's make it even more profound for you!"

After a moment of reflection, Yu Jin covered his face with both hands.

His fingers were fiddling with the peephole in his helmet, as if he were seeing something that shouldn't be there.

And indeed, that was the case; with the flick of Yu Jin's fingers, streaks of yellow-red sparks shot out from his peephole.

His whole body was trembling involuntarily, as if he were having a fit of madness.

Sky-Piercing Flames—originating from the prayer of the Mad Three Fingers. It can gather and release yellow flames from the eyes. By accumulating power, its strength can be enhanced and it can break through defenses.

Those who attempted to control their inner turmoil in the past, without exception, all ended up in madness in the final stages of their desperate inner battles. This prayer is proof of a slight victory over that inner turmoil.

"呲-"

A dazzling yellow beam of light shot out from Ember's eyes, traversing an enormous distance and striking the woman with perfect accuracy.

"what!"

A faint scream drifted from afar, and then a black dot vanished.

"Little Deer, bring her here!" Ember wiped the peephole on his helmet; that's the downside of this laser eye.

He has to wipe his helmet clean every time he uses it.

Why did I become a corpse picker?

Kanoin Heizo complained, but still used his wind elemental power to rush towards where the lady had fallen.

"it is good!"

Seeing the lady get her comeuppance, the young master exclaimed, "Good!" She'd abandoned him like a pawn; now she can't escape, can she?

Unbeknownst to him, the young master had already given up hope of escaping.

"But there's still one over there!" the young master reminded him as soon as he saw that the stragglers had disappeared.

He looked exactly like a cunning strategist.

"Why are you in a more anxious mood than I am? Are you a spy for some faction within the Fools?"

Seeing the young master's impatient manner, Yu Jin immediately became suspicious of his background.

If the Fools can plant spies in other factions, there's no reason why other factions can't do the same.

Who knows, maybe one of the undercover agents will become an executive officer? Yu Jin thinks that the young master is very much like that undercover agent now.

"No, don't talk nonsense! I am loyal to the Queen!" The young master hurriedly clarified when he heard Yu Jin's slander.

He did this purely for the woman and the skirmisher, and it had nothing to do with loyalty.

He had been holding back for a long time because the lady and the soldier were the most outspoken among the executives.

"Alright, no need to rush, they can't escape." Yu Jin silently sensed the positions of the skirmishers, and then snapped his fingers under the young master's puzzled gaze.

"Snapped!"

"What are you..."

"boom!"

The young master's last sentence was drowned out by the distant sound of an explosion. He felt the heat on his cheek and turned his head to look.

In the distance, huge gushes of lava were gushing out; anyone who didn't know better would think this was Nata!
