The Embers of King's Teyvat Journey

How could a black knife possibly exist in this world!

Wu became even more excited upon hearing this. Tinye was the name the king gave her, and only those within the Black Knife and the Embers knew it.

"Get up, get up. Didn't I say you didn't have to do this?" Although Ember's head was buzzing, he still helped Tinye up.

"How did you get here? Nobody did anything stupid, right?" Yu Jin asked worriedly, looking at Tinaye, who was much taller than him.

He had burned himself out to create a large hole, and he didn't want to sacrifice others to create another hole.

"Your Majesty need not worry, all is well." Tinye looked down at the embers, her silvery voice showing a slight fluctuation for the first time.

Tinye moved slightly closer to Ember, her subtle movements not escaping his notice. Ember looked at Tinye and sensed something was amiss.

"Hey, hey, hey, what do you want to do, Tinye?"

Just as Ember was about to escape, Tinye's arm, which was longer than his leg, pierced under Ember's armpit.

Then Ember's feet left the ground, and he was held tightly in Tinye's arms.

"The aura of a king!" Tinye murmured, nuzzling Ember's face.

Ember looked utterly dejected. He had once said that he felt very passive when dealing with the Black Blades.

That's the passive state we're in right now.

Chapter 60 The Black Knives

2023-08-28

"Have you touched her properly?" Yu Jin looked at Tinaye, who was standing right in front of him, and said with a hint of helplessness.

“No.” Tinye still held onto the embers tightly.

However, this time Yu Jin didn't indulge her anymore. He directly chopped with both hands and then returned to the ground.

Tinaye's beautiful face was now revealed beneath her veil.

Her fair skin was slightly flushed, and her beautiful eyes were fixed intently on Ember. Even her hair, which was usually hidden under her cloak, was now disheveled and sticking out.

There is no need to hide before the king.

However, he paid no attention to these embers. Looking at the eager Tinye in front of him, he cleared his throat and said, "Tinye, I said..."

"Yes, yes, you said your love is not love in the worldly sense, and you will never have love in the worldly sense." Tinye knew what Yu Jin was going to say just from the beginning of his poem. He directly recited Yu Jin's lines in advance.

Looking at the eloquent Tinye in front of him, Yu Jin wondered if he had made a mistake. How did the taciturn Black Blade in his memory become like this?

"Fine, whatever. I've said everything I needed to say." Yu Jin gave up struggling again. Let them do whatever they want, as long as they're happy.

"Hehe." Tinye chuckled softly upon hearing Ember's sarcastic remark. Sure enough, the King hasn't changed a bit.

Upon hearing Tinye's laughter, Yu Jin felt a pang of emotion. It seemed she had suppressed her feelings for far too long when she was a killing machine. Now that her emotions were being released, she even possessed a touch of girlish charm.

"By the way, did you come alone, or were there other people with you?" Yu Jin suddenly realized and asked Tinaye in front of him.

“The Black Knife team has all arrived and should be gathering intelligence now,” Tinye replied without hesitation.

“Call them all back. There’s no need to be so tense here,” Yu Jin said after a moment of contemplation.

Teyvat is generally peaceful and doesn't require the Black Knives to do anything.

"Understood." Tinye knelt on one knee, bowed her head, and began to communicate with the other Black Blades. The Black Blades were able to kill a top-tier demigod largely because they could communicate telepathically through a special method.

Yu Jin looked at Tinye, who was kneeling before him, and covered his head, saying, "Just treat this world as a vacation; there are no working hours. So, stand up!"

After tapping Tinye on the head twice, Ember took the lead and headed towards Mondstadt.

Tinye touched his forehead, smiled, and then disappeared, following closely behind Ember.

……

"What?! What is this?!" A house of moderate size in Mondstadt was now packed with people.

Ember sat in the only chair, holding a huge blueprint in his hand, which was the city structure of Mondstadt.

The text is densely covered with information about the spheres of influence, power balance, and rotation times of various factions in Mondstadt.

He put down the blueprints and casually pulled a stack of blank papers from the pile of documents on the table. Upon seeing the filename, Yu Jin's vision went black.

Because the document's title was "Mondstadt Eye of the Gods Personnel Habits and Strength Estimates," he flipped through it and saw information about Jean, Diluc, Amber, and others.

"What do you want to do? What do you want to do? Start a war?" Yu Jin burned all the documents and blueprints after only a short while.

He didn't want to be misunderstood because of these things.

"It's all for the King's safety," Aletto and the other Black Blades shouted in unison, kneeling on one knee inside the small house.

Yu Jin glanced around and saw that all eleven Black Blades were present. Looking at their perfectly synchronized appearance, he paused for a moment, then said helplessly, "Seriously... I'm impressed with you all. Don't you have anything to do?"

"I've already said, all I know how to do is fight, I don't know how to manage people. It's enough that Godwin and Michaela are in charge of the border area."

"Why do you insist on coming to me? I'm nothing special. Without me, you'll have plenty of time, won't you?"

"Alto, weren't you going to explore the borderlands with Dixi? Have you seen it?" Ember glanced at Alto, who was in the front, and Eleven, who was behind him.

Then he muttered to Er, "And you, Titi, weren't you going to open a restaurant? Have you opened it yet?"

"Don't move, Tines. There are so many powerful people in the border area right now. Shouldn't you be challenging them? Why are you coming to me? I'm so weak right now. If you all attack me at once, I probably can't handle it."

Yu Jin looked at San, who was about to say something, and stopped her from speaking.

"Tifuna (Si), I remember you and Tifya (Jiu) were supposed to be learning to draw, right? You didn't have time before, but now that you have time, why aren't you learning and instead coming to me?"

“Tinye (Wu), forget it, I won’t say anything to you.”

"Tinani (Lu) and Tiffany (Qi), haven't you two always been talking about going into business and becoming rich? Now you've come to me, how are you going to become rich?"

"Tirissa (8), you want to make 100 friends, and now you've come all this way, how are you going to do that?"

"And you, Tinami (Shi), don't you have a good eye for your sister Tinae? Be careful she doesn't get love-struck and get kidnapped."

Ember rarely spoke so much, and he felt there was really no need to look for him. A new life was just around the corner, so why bother with this guy who crawled out of his grave?

Finally, it seemed there was nothing more to say. Yu Jin scratched his head and said, "In the end, if you're worried about my safety, there's no need to worry."

"What are you worried about if it can't die?" He then gave a self-deprecating laugh.

The silence lasted for a long time. Looking at the silence before him, Yu Jin felt a little guilty. Had he said something wrong? Trying to read people's minds was really making things difficult for him.

"Heh... hehe, why aren't you saying anything? Just come find me, it's not like I can't." Yu Jin chuckled a few times, trying to break the silence.

"Pfft~, hahaha!" Ba burst out laughing first, and even the light veil over her armor began to tremble.

Then Yu Jin saw Ba jump up and hug him, his light and melodious laughter ringing in his ears.

"Your Majesty, there's something I've wanted to say for a long time."

"What did you say?" Yu Jin struggled in Ba's arms for a while, but found that he couldn't break free, so he just sat there in Ba's arms like a coward.

"Your naming skills really don't match your abilities. Sometimes even I can't figure out other people's names. So, from now on, just call us by our code names."

Just as Yu Jin was about to retort, he found that Ba hugged him even tighter. Then he felt warmth coming from Ba's face.

"However, I really like the name Tilisa!" As she spoke, Ba nuzzled Yu Jin's cheek, saying contentedly.

"Ah~, I've wanted to do the same as Wu for a long time. The aura of the king is truly delightful."

Just as Ember was feeling utterly hopeless in his arms, he suddenly realized that he seemed to be shrouded in shadow.

Looking up, Yu Jin saw that the Black Blades had surrounded him without him noticing. Their figures, two heads taller than him, put considerable pressure on him.

Ember instinctively sensed something bad was about to happen, so he clutched his chest and said nervously, "Hey, hey, what's going on?"

"It's nothing, I just wanted to hug the king like Wu did," Er said, her clear voice filled with barely suppressed laughter.

"Hey, really? I'm not like you. I want to give the king a princess carry!" Si patted his bulging breastplate and said boldly.

"Where do you want to go, Wang?" Jiu asked with a half-smile, looking at Yu Jin, who had secretly broken free from Ba's embrace while they were chatting.

“I can run,” Yu Jin said seriously, glancing at the eager black knives.

"Really? But Wang seems to have said that you can't handle this right now, so let's all go together." San looked at Yu Jin, who was preparing to escape, and a smile appeared on his lips.

"Sisters, follow me! You won't get another chance like this! Aren't you tempted to toy with the King?!"

"Help! There's a female hooligan!!!"

Writing names for the black knives was exhausting, but thankfully it's just this once; from now on, we should use code names most of the time.

Chapter 61 Come to life

2023-08-28

"Alright, alright, stop fooling around." Aleto saw Ember swinging around in the arms of the various black knives, so he stopped them from taking things any further.

The king's dignity needs to be maintained, even though she had just taken advantage of Ember.

Only after Aleto spoke did the Black Blades reluctantly put down the embers.

Ember, who had just landed, felt a little dizzy. Ever since he was captured, he had been held in various different positions by the Black Blades.

Because of their size, the Black Blades could carry someone of average build like Ember as if he were a child; his feet barely touched the ground.

Ember shook his head and paused for a moment before saying to the black-clad figures, "Hmm... how did you get here?"

He was indeed very curious about this, because the embers could only burn a large hole in the world when they sacrificed themselves.

As for the border area? Yu Jin thought for a moment, if he wanted to open another big hole, he would probably have to capture that old bastard Supreme Will and burn him.

“It was Lord Patch, along with two other unidentified individuals, who brought us here,” Alto replied.

Her tone was tinged with doubt. As one of the top assassin and intelligence organizations in the border region, how could the Black Knife have absolutely no information about those two people?

This is indeed very strange.

“Tell me what you look like, maybe I’ll recognize you.” Ember began to think after hearing Aleto’s words.
