In Douluo Continent, my summoning of Naxi Da was exposed by the heavens.

How could Dudu forget such a great thing? It's the same kind of toy as the one from the Witch Association, it's sure to be a hit.

"Ms. Alice wouldn't come all the way from the world chasing me for royalties, would she? No way, she's got plenty of money. I'm the only one who loves little coins! Hehe!"

Dolly is very proactive; she does what she thinks of and doesn't need to put in too much effort to make Dudu.

However, Dolly might lose money this time. The children in Douluo Continent are all very precocious, and Dudu might be too childish.

Back on the screen, Alice, in her guise as Dudu, went to the Witch's Guild's private room to wait for Abedo and the others to get ready.

The traveler and Paimon arrived at Abedo's office on the second floor of the Knights of Favonius, where little Dulin was.

Seeing Little Paimon and the Traveler was somewhat unexpected.

"Little Dulin, what are you doing here?"

"Actually, I secretly helped out during the chaos in the city just now. I even wanted to pat Paimon on the shoulder, but you flew too fast and I didn't get a chance."

"Have you always been by our side?"

"Yes, I've been in Mondstadt for several days now, and I've been hiding the whole time, afraid of scaring people."

"It's okay, we're not afraid of you."

Paimon said warmly.

"Are you here in Mondstadt on a trip? To participate in the Wind Flower Festival, and maybe play some games or something?"

"I did sneak into the Wind Flower Festival. Although I couldn't play games openly, the festival was really great."

The backdrop then shifted, revealing the beautiful scenery of the Mondstadt Flower Festival: a city adorned with flowers, bustling crowds, fun games, and melodious songs—a truly heavenly scene.

It seems that there aren't many festivals in the Douluo Continent, except for the All-Continent Elite Tournament of Advanced Soul Master Academies, which is more like a festival.

But that was a celebration for nobles and soul masters, and had nothing to do with commoners. It's quite pathetic that commoners don't even have a festive holiday to celebrate.

The Flower Goddess Festival that the Academy is preparing may become a festival that covers the entire Douluo Continent.

Back to Little Dulin, he didn't just come to Mondstadt for the holidays.

"I'm not just here to have fun. I made a promise with Abelardo to accomplish something great."

The traveler thought of the source of the turmoil in Mondstadt: the dragon Durin. The appearance of Little Durin in Mondstadt was clearly also for the sake of the dragon Durin.

"Is it because of the dragon Durin?"

"Yes, I want to... I want to replace the dragon Dulin on the snow mountain and return to the world as the one who is resurrected."

"Didn't you already leave Shimulanka?"

Paimon clearly did not understand what Dulin Jr. meant.

"I'm sorry, Paimon, I wasn't clear enough. Abedo said he has a way to turn me back into a human using alchemy."

"Ah! So that's how it is!"

"As expected, Abedo's human transmutation technique was prepared for you."

"Yes!"

"Little Dulin, do you want to become human?"

"I don't know if I want to... I'm a little confused about what's right and what's good in this kind of thing."

But, but, I'm also Dulin, and I don't want to lose to another dragon in a place like this.

"Little Dulin, are you really ready? Becoming human is not an easy thing."

"Yes, Abedo has already told me about this. He said that the dragon Dulin in the snow mountain is very aggressive, more primitive, and more like a wild beast."

I am a dragon created by my mother in her storybooks, and my pure part can just offset the evil part of the dragon Durin.

Or perhaps I wasn't a complete soul to begin with? Abedo said it's normal to have these questions; everyone carries a whole host of problems.

Rather than remain unchanged, I hope my existence can be more meaningful. To stop a dragon and become a person—that sounds very meaningful.

So please don't worry about me; I participated voluntarily.

Ah Mao looked at the sky and then glanced at Little Dulin, who had turned into a human, beside him.

He was right to let young Dulin go to Mondstadt on his own; some decisions are ones you have to make yourself, and no one can do them for you.

If he had gone to Mondstadt with him back then, given how dependent Dulin was on him at the time, he would most likely have let Dulin help him make decisions.

Such a crucial decision absolutely cannot be delegated to others.

"Ah Mao, what's wrong? Is there something on my face?"

"No, you did a good job. I thought you'd be crying and wailing when you went to Mondstadt by yourself."

"I wouldn't!"

The scene on the sky continued. To accomplish the feat of making Little Dulin replace the dragon Dulin as a human was certainly not an easy task, which was why Abedo was going to participate in the Witch's Trial.

Dulin Jr. said he was still a little confused about what kind of relationship he had with Abedo.

"Abedo told me that he was the Son of Cretaceous, an artificial being, and that I would become something similar to him."

There are only the two of us living like this in this world. Alchemy has created only the two of us to survive in human form.

If all living things in the world are classified by race, then I only have this one connection... am I my only family?

"You don't just have Abeldo as family. The witches of the Witch Guild are also your family, as are A-Mao. You can also consider him family."

By the way, why didn't he come with you?

"This is my own responsibility, and I want to take responsibility for it myself. Ah Mao also agreed."

Perhaps he also thought that I would eventually become the same race as Abedo, and that I should come back here.

I'm a little scared, but also a little excited!

However, it's so good to see you all; it made me feel so much more relaxed.

Tina looked at the sky, thinking about what Little Dulin had said. Whether or not they were of the same race was indeed the most common way to distinguish between close and distant relatives.

However, overemphasizing this point will only exacerbate the isolation and create conflict.

The ultimate goal of biophilosophical research is to enable different races to live peacefully in the environment of Teyvat.

Seeking common ground while reserving differences may be the key to achieving this.

"Teacher, what are you thinking about?"

Tinari smiled at Cole.

"I'm thinking about a research topic. Once I've perfected it, I'll hand it over to you for practice. Douluo Continent is a perfect place to put this topic into practice, and it's also a very meaningful one."

"Yes, teacher, I won't let you down."

Tina was naturally very satisfied with his disciple, Kolei, but as for the other newly recruited disciples, well, it was hard to say.

Meanwhile, on the sky, Little Dulin was also encouraging himself, telling himself to stay in top condition to ensure Aberdo's plan would succeed.

Next, Abel and the traveler arrived at the Witch's Guild's private room.
