Original God, life in red Teyvat from scratch

The attack of the Wind Dragon had just passed. While the people of Mondstadt were talking about it, the Knights of Favonius were busy, and Ying and Paimon were eating their fill (in the physical sense) in the city, the bard Wendy presented the story of the Wind Dragon in its entirety in the form of poetry.

Although the Knights of Favonius were curious about where the bard got the news, nothing was surprising in Teyvat, so they did not stop Wendy from singing.

People in Mondstadt are now generally accusing the Knights of Favonius of being indecisive and weak in the face of the Wind Dragon. As a result, the good reputation that the Knights had accumulated recently through their hard work has declined a lot, and the pressure from public opinion is quite great.

Especially Diluk, the owner of the Dawn Winery. Some people heard Diluk publicly complain about this in his tavern [Angel's Gift].

However, this is not the fault of the people of Mondstadt. After all, the Knights have always considered the impact and have not announced the research results. People do not know the past contributions and present sufferings of the "Wind Demon Dragon".

Through the spread of poetic poetry and confirmation by the Knights of Favonius, the people of Mondstadt have learned about Tevarin's identity and past, which should effectively alleviate the huge public pressure currently faced by the Knights of Favonius.

However, Ying inexplicably felt that the voice of the bard singing under the statue of the God of Wind was very familiar.

Ying turned around and was about to discuss something with Paimon who was flying nearby, but coincidentally, Paimon was also looking at her with eyes full of question marks.

Ying/Paimon sounds familiar too!

When the song ended and Diluk and Ying were the only ones left in the crowd, Ying walked forward hesitantly.

Diluk stood aside with his hands folded, staring at Venti.

"That day, it was you..."

"Oh, yes, it was me who asked the thousand-year-old wind to bless you so that you would not fall."

In response to Ying's question, Wendy admitted her identity directly.

When Ying and Paimon heard this, their eyes widened.

It’s exactly the same as the mysterious sound they heard that day!

"Wow, it's really you."

Ying still remembers the experience of being hurriedly looking for a knight from the Knights of Favonius to borrow the Wings of Wind to fly without a license under the urging of a mysterious voice.

Fortunately, everyone's attention was focused on her deeds of leading the Wind Demon Dragon away.

"You...why would you help us?" Paimon didn't think too much about it. After all, she didn't need to fly with the Wings of Wind, nor did she need to take a pilot's license.

"Because Tevarin... is in great pain now."

A look of self-blame and worry appeared on Wendy's face.

Paimon tilted his head as he watched this scene and asked, "Do you know each other well?"

"Of course, we are old friends."

As Wendy spoke, she turned her head slightly and glanced at Diluk.

He naturally knew the reason why Diluk came to see him, so he didn't intend to hide it.

After all, I was too impatient at that time.

Let it be for now, and wait until you are discovered.

Diluk, who was standing by, had been eavesdropping on the conversation between the three people.

At that time, Wendy hurriedly left the tavern and disappeared. He was just about to follow the Wind Dragon... or rather, Tevarin came.

The timing is just perfect.

He even specifically asked Jean about the time when Tevarin would be freed from the seal.

It happened just before Wendy jumped up from her seat in excitement.

It's such a coincidence that it's hard not to wonder if there is any connection between the two.

Unexpectedly, this drunkard didn't come to his tavern in the next few days.

This forced Diluk to take the initiative. He walked around the city these days, asking about Venti's past and trying to meet her by chance.

As a result, when we met today for the first time outside the tavern, I heard him telling people about Tvarin's past in the form of poetry, and then I heard him claiming to be Tvarin's old friend.

This made him even more convinced that there was a certain connection between the two.

Maybe he was the one who set the seal.

Although no matter how you look at it, such behavior is incompatible with the identity of a drunkard.

Diluk stopped listening and walked up to ask, "So, how do you plan to help your old friend?"

"Traveler, do you remember the red crystal that fell into your hands when Tevarin left?"

"Of course I remember. Miss Lisa said that it was a filthy force that was repelled by the elemental power of the Eye of God. Except for me, anyone else who came into contact with it would feel stinging."

"Yes, those are Tevarin's tears. Tevarin, it is because he suffers from this filth and corruption all the time that he has become what he is now. And you can touch it but remain unaffected. Isn't this what makes you special?"

Is this person so clear?

Diluk looked at Venti thoughtfully, but received only a "hey" smile. Then he looked at Ying again.

Having said that, this person can use elemental power flexibly without the Eye of God, and use it quite well, which seems to be the most special thing.

Ying took out the crystal that should have been red, but found that it had turned blue, and there was no longer the filth that made others feel stinging.

"Eh? How could this happen?"

As Paimon exclaimed, Wendy was thinking, "As expected."

Then, Wendy took out another crystal, which was successfully purified by Ying in just a few seconds.

"You really have incredible power. Standing in the sun will make you a hero, and standing in the shade can lead to disaster."

Beneath Wendy's amused expression and nonchalant tone, there was a meaningful look in her eyes.

Of course, no one noticed this small detail, everyone's attention was focused on the purified crystals.

"So, your plan is to have the Knight of Honor purify the filthy power in Tevarin and make Tevarin sane again?"

"That's right!"

Ying listened to the conversation between several people and proudly put her hands on her hips. See, I am so important!

"Ah..." Diluk couldn't help but sigh. "It's a good idea, but Mondstadt is so big, can you find Tevarin's trace?"

Wendy really wanted to say "No problem", but in line with the principle of acting in a complete manner, Wendy said, "So, I have a plan."

Wendy still proposed to use the Skyharp to lure out Tevarin.

"The Harp of the Sky..."

Diluk seemed a little embarrassed and looked at Venti and Ying again.

"Yes, Master Diluk is also going to join the operation to save Tevarin?"

"..."

"Let me take care of the Sky Harp. You just wait for me in the Angel's Gift."

"Master Diluk is so generous!"

Wendy was naturally overjoyed at this. He was still thinking about how to get or steal the Sky Harp.

Chapter 270: Insincere attitude and clueless

With Diluk's help as guarantor, they found Jean, the leader of the Knights Templar. After explaining the reason, Jean approved the document immediately and then personally brought the Sky Harp to the tavern.

The team to rescue Tevarin is now complete.

Because the Abyss Cult was forced to abandon the action, Tevarin was not manipulated by the Abyss Mage to lose his mind, but cooperated with Wendy's performance, so the mission to go to several other temples did not happen at all.

Finally, after several consecutive battles, Ying successfully used elemental power to break up the poisonous stings condensed from Tevarin's poisonous blood in the ruins of the wind dragon and completed the purification.

At the end of the incident, Ying, Wendy, and Tevarin, one god and one dragon, came to the big tree in Fengqidi.

The few of them did not return to the Cathedral of Favonius, nor did they encounter any Favonius. After all, the Knights of Favonius had greatly increased in strength and were no longer susceptible to the Favonius's aggressive diplomacy.

Moreover, the Heart of the Wind God is no longer in Wendy's hands, and even the lady responsible for obtaining the Heart of the Wind God is gone, so the Fatui have no motive to commit the crime.

Since the Sky Harp was borrowed by Jean, it was natural for Jean to take it back, so Jean and Diluk returned to Mondstadt halfway.

To Diluk, although the fact that his own god was a drunkard sounded a bit shocking, considering that Mondstadt was already in such a mess, it didn't seem so outrageous that the god could be a little bit outrageous.

At least, he did contribute when the Wind Dragon attacked Mondstadt.

Being clear on major issues was enough, and it also slightly changed Diluk's impression of Barbatos.

Although next time you come to his tavern, he still won't sell alcohol, at least when he is present.

I don't know why, even though he knows that Wendy's real age may be thousands of years old and he would never get drunk if he wanted to, he just doesn't want to sell it.

Human feelings are truly magical.

As for Jyn, the god of Mondstadt had been missing for a long time. The Knights of Favonius managed all the affairs of Mondstadt and did a pretty good job. The people of Mondstadt were accustomed to this normality, and Venti had no intention of returning to the throne of God. So it was fine to keep it highly secret and pretend not to know, and maintain the status quo.

Knowing that Wendy is the wind god Barbatos whom they revere, it seems that no one has changed from before. At most, he can call for help when the situation is critical.

But if something really big happened, like the Wind Dragon attacking Mondstadt, it was not too dangerous, and Venti did not stand idly by.

So there's still not much difference.

At this time, under the big tree in the wind, Wendy was revealing some information to Ying, or rather, answering Ying's questions.

Ying learned a lot about the Fatui and the Cult of the Abyss, especially the Cult of the Abyss, which was described as the "enemy of the ground civilization."

However, the news about the strange god and Ying's brother was successfully covered up by Wendy using his traditional skills: hey hey.

In short, the main point is that the attitude is insincere and the person knows nothing about anything.

Wendy: This is a topic that cannot be touched.jpg

However, unlike the original, Wendy did not completely get away with it.

"Liyue's Summoning Ceremony will begin in a few months. You can meet Liyue's Rock God Morax at the ceremony. He is the oldest and most powerful god among the Seven Ruling Gods of the Earth. Perhaps he knows something you want to know."

"And Inazuma, although some changes have taken place recently and the god of thunder and lightning has been forced to step down, the new leader of mankind is as special and mysterious as you. Moreover, he also knows many unknown stories. Perhaps there will be clues about your brother."

These two sentences successfully revived the interest of Ying, who had hit a snag with Wendy.

You see, although the drunkard who was singing for money knew nothing about anything, at least others helped point out clues and gave him hints. Who would know the answer?

"I understand, thank you."

Ying thanked Wendy sincerely.

"Hey~"

Wendy smiled innocently.

Paimon, who had heard "Eh Hey" countless times in the Q&A session, couldn't help but say, "Here comes the street singer again. Every time you are in a serious situation, you always use "Eh Hey" to get away with it. I think you can have another ugly nickname, just call yourself "Eh Hey Weirdo."

"Hey, that's not bad!"

Ying and Paimeng had no idea what to do about it and could only hold their foreheads and sigh.

"You should go back to the city first. I want to stay here with Tevarin for a while."

Seeing that Ying had nothing else to ask, Wendy prepared to part with the two of them for the time being.

Ying nodded, and turned around and walked towards Mondstadt with Paimon.

It has been a long time since I last saw this god and this dragon. After going through so much together, I think they must have a lot to talk about.

They should be given enough privacy at this time.

"Traveler!"

Wendy's voice, which had become quite serious at this moment, came from behind Ying, causing Ying and Paimon to look back curiously.

"During your journey, you will definitely see many sights and witness countless people and events, but you must not forget the meaning of the journey itself. Everything along the way is a unique memory worth cherishing."

It was rare to see Wendy speaking in such a formal manner, and Ying was actually a little uncomfortable for a moment.

Seeing Wendy's serious face, Ying couldn't help but become serious too, and nodded heavily in response: "I will."

Isn't what Wendy said correct in itself?

"Hey, besides, there are still many interesting places in Mond. During this time, why not take a good walk around Mond and experience the local customs and culture of Mond."

Ying and Paimeng immediately looked helpless.

That's it again.

The atmosphere was set to this point, but it was ruined by a single word.

And it seems that you said so much just to promote Mondstadt?
