Xing did not answer this question, because she was not feeling very well at the moment - the star core in her body felt her fighting spirit for the first time in a long time. Once the power began to become restless, it would not be so easy to pacify it, and Xing had to suppress this desire for destruction.

In order to suppress this desire that had nowhere to vent, Xing put away the baseball bat. She squatted down, lifted Rosaline's chin with one hand, lowered her head and forcefully bit her ear.

"You - let me go! You damn -"

Feeling the other party's gentle bites and increasingly unruly hands, Rosalin was completely panicked, but at this moment she could hardly use the power of the evil eye.

"I'm going to kill you! Gu-kill you! Burn you-to ashes!"

Xing pushed Rosalin onto her back and looked straight into her eyes:

"But you can't, just like you can't change your past."

"you……!?"

[Looking into her eyes, you seem to be able to feel the endless sadness hidden under the madness and hatred of this woman. Perhaps her world has already collapsed, so she chooses to ignite herself and turn into a fire to throw herself into the dark disaster. After everything is burned out, only a heart and eyes full of madness and insanity are left. Now, under this beautiful body, what is burning is endless anger and despair.]

Can you save her?

[Can it? You know very well that it cannot, because she does not desire or need salvation, and this flame will never stop until she or the world reaches the end]

Xing nodded, I see.

But she still liked this woman - not just her appearance, but also her madness and her fiery obsession.

[In other words, you admire her character, her experience, or... her personality]

Personality? It's a... pretty appropriate word.

[So...what are you going to do? ]

Xing thought about it and soon came up with an answer.

If you can't extinguish a flame, then... add fuel to it with hatred.

Let this flame... be stained with her color.

“Kill you… Kill you!!”

Rosalin continued to roar in a low voice, but she was unable to resist as she temporarily lost her strength.

Finally, these roars were mixed with more unbearable and concealed emotions and turned into angry cries.

"I must...kill you! Absolutely...absolutely!"

"If you want to kill me, then you must first live well."

Xing looked at Rosaline's angry eyes with satisfaction. After a while, she withdrew her hand and gently stroked the other's face with her fingertips stained with Rosaline's scent, but was bitten fiercely by the latter.

Rosalin bit her finger so hard that it seemed as if she wanted to tear it off with her teeth.

But Xing didn't care about her resistance, because the lady was so powerless at the moment, at best it was just like a kitten playing.

"You can only avenge me if you stay alive, right? So... remember this humiliation and mark of today, Rosaline. You must live well, continue to suffer in this world, and then... find me again and come to me..."

Xing leaned down again and tasted the beautiful pomegranate. She felt the plump fruit crack slightly, and the rich juice flowed freely from her lips, like the wine of a tyrant, the mad love of a lover, and the blood of an innocent victim...

Xing knew that he was a little impatient.

Because...she doesn't have much time left...

--------------

The heavy sword chopped on the ice wall again and again.

Eula was breathing rapidly. She had never wished so much that her Eye of God was not an ice element but something else. So now she could only use brute force to try to break open the ice wall.

She had no idea what was happening inside, but through the vibrations coming from the rock walls, she could imagine what a terrible battle was taking place inside.

Just when she had finally cut out a big gap, but it was repaired in the blink of an eye, making Eula almost despair, there was another violent vibration from the rock wall, and then, the ice wall in front of her that was constantly solidifying suddenly stopped repairing, and even... it looked like it was being melted by some high temperature, as if a big fire had occurred on the other side.

What on earth is going on? Are the stars fighting?

But no matter what, hope appeared again. This must mean that the star is still there. Eula took a deep breath and swung the sword vigorously again, chopping it down again and again.

Finally, she was about to completely break through the ice wall in front of her.

“Break it for me!!”

The swift and heavy blow finally broke through the ice wall that was several meters thick. Eula kicked the broken ice wall again. Just as she was about to strike again with the sword, a baseball bat came from the other side, widening the gap.

"star!?"

Xing rushed over, with many small wounds on her body and even a trace of blood at the corner of her mouth. When she saw Eula, she quickly got into the gap in the ice wall and pushed her out:

"Quick! I've temporarily injured Rosalyn! But she'll recover soon!"

Eula was confused: "Rosaline? What Rosaline? You mean... Madam?"

She tried to peek inside to see what was going on, but the stars were blocking her view and she didn't look well.

"Of course it's her... Let's retreat!" Xing looked very anxious. She touched the blood at the corner of her mouth. "The power of ice is only the ability of her evil eye. She can also turn into a big moth with fire!"

No wonder the ice wall looks like it's about to melt, but...

Eula and Xing crawled out of the ice wall together. She looked behind her at the stillness, feeling a little confused.

"You...you defeated the Fatui's executor? What's her condition now? Why doesn't she have any..."

"It's just a clever tactic. It temporarily injures her! Let's retreat!"

Eula did not doubt it too much. After all, he was the Fatui executor who was said to have power comparable to that of a god. She quickly followed Xing's pace and ran out of the cave.

There were no other Fatui around, and it was obvious that they had fled long ago because they were afraid of the lady's anger. The two ran all the way to the small lake in Qingquan Town, and then stopped panting.

Eula had been chopping the ice wall for a long time and was indeed out of breath. She ignored the etiquette and elegance of the nobility and sat down by the lake with Xing. After she let out a long sigh, she looked at Xing and the small wounds on her body with concern: "Are you... okay?"

Xing, who looked like she had just survived a catastrophe, waved her hands and said, "It's OK... it's just... quite exciting."

"Huh... By the way, we have to notify the Knights immediately! Madam... and my uncle..."

Just as Youla was about to get up again, Xing grabbed her and pulled her into her arms.

"……star?"

Looking at the stars so close, Eula seemed to recall the kiss from the girl not long ago, and her face suddenly turned slightly red.

Xing, she...

Fortunately, this time Xing just hugged her tightly and rubbed Eula hard like a puppy.

"It's great to see you again, Eula..."

Feeling Xing's reluctance to leave after surviving the disaster, Youla sighed, hugged Xing as well, and rubbed her head in annoyance.

"Me too……"

Perfect~

[This is too despicable. I can’t bear to watch it anymore…]

Shut up, don't ruin the atmosphere~

Hey~

Volume 046: On the Journey: Open Your Heart

The two of them hugged each other for a long time after they recovered their breath. After suppressing her inner shyness, Eula reviewed the incident again. After she came to her senses, she was quite angry with Xing.

"Come to think of it, you actually pushed me out and left you alone to face the executive officer!?"

Eula picked up Xing's face, which was rubbing against her chest and becoming increasingly dishonest.

"Why, do you think I'll be a burden to you? I'll remember this grudge!"

Xing shook her head innocently:

"No, it's because I know I'll be fine, but I don't have the confidence to protect Eula, and I don't want to see Eula get hurt."

Xing touched Eula's face.

"If I hurt a beautiful girl like Eula even a little bit, I would regret it deeply and would never be able to forgive myself."

Eula, who was not used to being praised, blushed again:

"But...but Xing is also very beautiful! And I am the holder of the Eye of God and a guerrilla knight, so I should be the one to protect Xing, right?"

Xing looked like she had just remembered something: "Yes, Eula is a knight..."

"Yeah, so I should be the one to protect..."

"Well, can you give me a kiss, Eula?"

"……Why?"

"Isn't that what they always do in stories? The kiss of a knight's hand?"

Xing smiled mischievously and stretched out his hand:

"Since Miss Knight has said so seriously that she wants to protect me, then I will naturally respond to your expectations, here~"

"This..." Eula hesitated, "Mond... there is no such custom. Besides, if you let someone from the Lawrence family become a knight to protect you, you will be laughed at if you tell others..."

"Hey, so... Eula doesn't want to protect me?"

"Of course not! Wait, you are changing the subject! I will remember this grudge as well!"

Although she said this, looking at the stars looking at her expectantly, Eula finally sighed:

"Okay, just this once..."

"Ok!"

[I was fooled. It was so easy to cheat.]

Youla gently held Xing's hand, closed her eyes, lowered her head and kissed her.

The next second, she felt that what she was kissing was not the back of Xing's hand, but something softer. Eula opened her eyes curiously and saw Xing's face close to her.

……Why?

Compared to Eula who was completely stunned, Xing nodded with satisfaction:

"Well, the oath is fulfilled. Eula will be my knight from now on~"

[That is to say, Eula's first kiss was not with anyone else, but with Xingda! ]

“——!!?”

Eula came to her senses and suddenly pulled her head back, letting go of Xing at the same time, looking at her in shock:

“You you you——!?”

"This is the contract etiquette in our hometown. After the kiss, Eula will be responsible for me, hey~"

"……star!!!"

Eula, who couldn't tell whether she was angry or shy, or both, immediately rushed forward with her teeth bared and claws ready to grab Xing and teach her a lesson, but Xing, who was extremely shameless, did not run away, and even hugged Eula again.

"You...you guy, let me go!" Eula was anxious and angry, because she found out that she could still beat Xing up?

But Xing became serious at this moment. She looked at Eula calmly and asked:

"Remember my question when we left Mondstadt, Eula? Birds, why do they fly?"

"…why…why is this bird flying? What does this have to do with…what does this have to do with you suddenly kissing me!?"

"It does matter, because... I think Eula is like a bird."

Xing's calm gaze made the embarrassed and annoyed Youla subconsciously calm down a little. She struggled for a while, but couldn't get out of Xing's arms. She could only bear it and started:

"Is this another weird way of praising people in your hometown?"
