That is to stop her from being controlled by the power of the demon god. The power of the demon god is a terrifying poison to ordinary humans, far exceeding elemental power. If this continues, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Given this, it becomes quite obvious what should be done.

That is to use his own power of ice to freeze the power of the demonic remnants within Kolei's body.

This may sound like a fantasy, but as one of the only two successful cases of the 'Fusion Warrior' modification surgery performed by the Fatui, she knows very well that the ice power she possesses is very special.

How special is it?

It can freeze even things that have no physical form.

This can be seen from the fact that she just used her power of ice to freeze the black flames that Cole was surging out. If she exerts her full strength, freezing the demonic remnants in Cole's body is not impossible for her.

This is the main reason why her father chose to send her alone to handle this matter; only she has the ability to resolve it.

This led her to retract her hand and then grip the flaming greatsword beside her, which seemed to be burning, after everything was resolved.

The survivors of the other knight squads, who had just recovered from their shock, belatedly asked Yura, who had suddenly appeared, for a question.

"You are……?"

"Yura Lawrence, the Inspector of the Fools and a special position of the Knights of Favonius, in charge of handling the 'Blackfire Arson Case'."

Faced with the others' questions, Yura merely glanced at them out of the corner of her eye before speaking calmly.

Upon hearing Yura identify herself as Lawrence, the expressions of the other knights present underwent subtle changes.

To be honest, although the intervention of the Fools was difficult for them to accept, it was at least within their tolerance.

But when they heard Lawrence's name, the others felt a sense of absurdity and resistance. Being saved by others was one thing, but being saved by Lawrence's people was something they found hard to accept.

They were very resistant to this, but fortunately, the squad leader, who was in charge, saw this and knew that now was not the time to worry about such things.

In contrast, he was more concerned about Yura, who suddenly appeared before him and claimed to be an agent of the Fools and the Knights of Favonius in a special position.

In his eyes, Yura looked to be only a little over ten years old, yet she was facing such a terrifying enemy all by herself. How could such a young girl dare to come to such a dangerous place by herself...

He originally wanted to say that this was too dangerous, but when he thought that even Kolai, who had driven them to this point, had such strength, he realized that even Yura could easily deal with the black flames.

This left him speechless for a moment.

But seeing Yura preparing to fight, he then thought of something else.

"What about the others? If you're the agent, what about the knight squad and the advance team you led? You couldn't have come alone, could you?"

But Yura only gave him this answer.

Yura looked at him with calm eyes, and then said indifferently.

"No need, because I am enough on my own. More people will only get in the way. Just remember to step back to a safe place when the time comes."

This dismissive answer left many of the other knights feeling indignant.

What does it mean to say that "one person is enough, and more people will only get in the way"? Does it mean they are holding us back?

Just as they were about to argue, after seeing what Yura did, they quickly understood why Yura had said they would only be a hindrance.

As Yura's gaze fell upon Kolei, who was engulfed in black flames, everyone felt a sudden drop in temperature, unlike the previous sensation of the temperature coming from a distant direction.

Instead, it was a comprehensive temperature change that made them wonder.

But they soon discovered where the chill came from. The sky, which should have been clear, was now shrouded in mist.

The falling snowflakes and the icy raindrops that landed on their skin took away their warmth, making them realize very quickly that it was snowing.

This outcome left them with a sense of absurdity, especially considering it was the height of summer.

Especially since Mondstadt is protected by the wind god Barbatos, how could there possibly be snow at this time of year? But no matter how absurd they found what was happening, it was the truth.

Since natural changes in weather are impossible, there must be only one reason.

That meant something was affecting the weather, which made them quickly focus their attention on the only possible factor affecting the weather, gazing at the figure of the girl draped in a garment as pure as the midnight sun.

It's hard to imagine that this young girl might be the main cause of such a change.

No matter how absurd they found it, everything before them undoubtedly showed them that after eliminating all the impossibilities, the remaining possibility, no matter how impossible, must be the truth.

This caused their Adam's apples to bob slightly as they stared at the girl in front of them in horror.

"She...changed the weather...!?"

Ignoring the shocked reactions of the others, her gaze was fixed on the barefoot girl with messy, rough green short hair standing in the open space.

At this moment, there were no other emotions in Cole's eyes, only hatred, anger, and paranoia.

She looked at Yura's figure in a somewhat hoarse voice and said coldly.

"Are you... here to arrest me like the others?"

“You cannot control that power; it is too dangerous. Perhaps you don’t realize it, but it is actually that unsafe power that is controlling your actions. Instead of resisting, you should come with me obediently, and I will help you seal that unstable power.”

Yura did not directly answer Cole's question, but calmly explained her thoughts and purpose.

However, this attitude seemed to have stung Cole's heart. Instead of calming her down, it made her more stubborn and emotionally agitated.

"What do you know! You have no idea what I've been through. Someone like you with the eyes of God must have been born extremely blessed, right?"

"How could someone like you possibly understand or empathize with the feelings of someone like me who can only rot ugly in the earth! You're just like those other people, wanting to use people like me as experimental subjects and consumable materials!"
