Diluk looked back at him, his expression still calm.
"Is that so? Social connections are really a headache."
Albedo frowned slightly in distress, and then spoke.
"By the way, the task you entrusted me to do last time is almost complete. Although it is too late to say it now, I still think it is necessary to remind you once again that this is an absolute taboo no matter which country it is in.
If we choose to give up now, at least we can minimize the scope of damage.”
"That's not necessary. I know full well, and I will bear the consequences."
"Then, be prepared mentally, before the Wind Flower Festival arrives—"
Albedo looked into the distance, and the broom that was flying with burning thoughts left golden embers in the air.
It was a very beautiful, sparkling color.
It is also the key to the answer to his final question.
-
Ying's adventure diary.
Today I accompanied Amber to find a way to make the broom fly, and finally I successfully found an opportunity from Albedo.
Although Amber's crying and laughing appearance made people a little worried, at least the final result was good.
But...even Amber, who usually appears so cheerful and positive, has such thoughts.
So, what do other people who have a good relationship with Miss Youya think?
Do they also have some strong obsessions like Amber?
Is this longing for the deceased really as Albedo said?
...will it just disappear like that?
I don't know, but at least, I want to remember her and the stories that happened between them.
Wind Flower Chapter-Act 1: Past, Present, Future (Part 1)
The Wind Flower Festival originated in the free capital of the "Northern Crown".
Whenever the festival comes, you can always see people on the streets holding flowers, smiling, and talking about interesting things about the Wind Flower Festival.
A bard sang with deep feeling:
"Who caressed your wounded but resolute face by the stream and the huge rock?"
"Who is embracing your tired and noble soul in the deep dream and high in the sky?"
"Dear friend, I will hold your hand and lead you into the night lights"
"I will tell you from the beginning the music of freedom and dreams during the festival"
Obviously, during this festival of flowers and wind, Ying, who is a traveler from another world, and Paimon, a portable voice-activated elf, feel very curious.
"Wow——Everyone seems to be very happy!"
Paimon was flying in front, looking around, but in the end his attention was attracted by a shop selling eggs and cheese on the street.
The greedy cat looks so funny.
"After all, it's an annual festival, so it's no surprise that it's so lively."
As Ying answered, she took out her wallet swiftly, counted out a few Mora coins and handed them to the shopkeeper.
If it was any later, Paimon's little face would be resting on someone's window. Although most Mondstadt people are free and enthusiastic and won't mind such a small thing, it is still embarrassing.
"Hey, you're right!"
Paimeng was very happy as long as there was something to eat, but he didn't know whether this response was due to Ying Ying's words or he was simply bribed by the delicious food.
The shop owner was a young girl with a few freckles on her cheeks. She smiled and replied, "In fact, it wasn't this lively in previous years, but this year is different. There's a dragon disaster and a meteorite falling. It feels like Mondstadt has suddenly become noisy."
She handed the hot food to the two and waved to them.
"——You two, please enjoy this hard-earned Wind Flower Festival!"
The two of them nodded with smiles on their faces and left, visiting snack stalls and enjoying the street scenery as they walked.
The new flower decorations in the city have a festive feel. It is hard to imagine how Captain Qin can have the energy to arrange these things under such great administrative pressure.
While Paimeng was still looking at the various food stalls, Ying caught a glimpse of a romantic figure.
The girl was very petite, probably only reaching an adult's waist, with bare feet and wearing a light-colored dress.
She was so fast that she disappeared in almost the blink of an eye.
This made Ying wipe her eyes in doubt, and when she looked again, the girl had disappeared.
“…Is this an illusion?”
She muttered in confusion.
"What kind of hallucination?"
A voice with a hint of curiosity in its energy came from behind her.
Ying turned her head and saw Amber standing on tiptoe with her hands behind her back, looking at her.
When the two looked at each other, she showed a lively and beautiful smile.
"Long time no see! Ying, and Paimon, you are here to participate in the Wind Flower Festival, right?"
Ying nodded subconsciously and looked at the beautiful figure beside Amber.
The very familiar wavy hair color revealed her identity: it was the captain of the guerrilla knights, Eula.
At this time, she nodded slightly instead of greeting.
Compared with the past, she now seemed a little indifferent, or rather... her heart was not immersed in this lively festival.
"Hey, Eula, and Amber? Why are you here?"
This time even Paimeng noticed it.
"Hey! Eula and I won the lottery and got half a day off, so we came here to go shopping together."
Amber didn't show much abnormality and was still enthusiastic.
"You guys still rely on drawing lots for your holidays?"
Ying's expression suddenly became a little subtle.
"That's not the case. In fact, it's just that Captain Qin wanted to give us a holiday, but everyone couldn't bear to let Captain Qin work overtime alone, so they came up with this idea."
Amber shook her head and said cheerfully.
"Kaia is unlucky. He has to work overtime until the evening. This must be retribution for all the bad things he did in the past!"
"Amber—"
Eula reminded softly.
This woke the bunny girl up immediately and she quickly covered her mouth.
Although it is annoying, it is indeed unchivalrous to speak ill of your colleagues in public.
Fortunately, everyone was immersed in the festival and no one noticed this little episode, and Ying and Paimon naturally would not leak the secret.
However, as the price of keeping the secret, Amber had to treat them to a good meal at Angel's Gift.
This made her agree happily.
The four of them walked together, stopping and starting along the way. When they arrived at the Angel's Gift, the place was already full of guests.
After all, there are alcohol promotions during the holidays, and there is a legitimate reason to drink, and many alcoholics have been looking forward to this moment.
Fortunately, because they were all friends of Master Diluk, the bartender Charles invited them to the private room on the second floor.
Rather than being a place for guests to drink, this is more like a small "bartender" with quite a lot of equipment.
"Ohhh, I didn't expect there was a room like this here!"
Paimon's face was full of curiosity.
Although she had seen Charles and Master Diluc mix cocktails, this was her first time to be in an independent bartender like this.
However, these clean and shiny glass cups looked somewhat familiar to her.
It's like I've seen it somewhere before...
But for a moment I couldn't remember it at all.
"What would you like to drink?"
Charles was very busy, so he naturally couldn't be their full-time bartender, so Eula took over the job.
Amber, who knew some of the inside story, ordered a cup of coffee casually.
This doesn't seem to be the taste that this rabbit girl likes at all. Ying thinks she should prefer sweeter drinks.
However, Eula was very clear about this. After all, if we were to talk about the most hardworking people in the Knights, Jean would definitely be ranked first, and this second one...
Of course it is Amber, who is passionate and always brings vitality to everyone.
She was also the one who most often accompanied Qin to work overtime, so it was no surprise that over time she fell in love with drinking coffee just like Qin.
After all, Qin’s skill in making coffee is really good.
Of course, her craftsmanship is not bad either.
After all, for some reason, none of them seemed to be unfamiliar with mixing drinks.
only--
Eula looked at the two people who were somewhat surprised, and her pretty eyebrows raised slightly.
"You look like you're surprised that I can do this?"
"Uh... not really. Although it's a little unexpected, I can understand it."
Ying's answer was a little forced, and even the heartless Paimon looked away guiltily, muttering something.
"Yes, yes. I think I have seen this kind of special cocktail cup in Eula's house!"
"Okay. You don't have to think too much about anything else. Some things are in the past. No one can live in yesterday forever, right?"
Eula sighed, and then asked again.
"So, what are you guys going to drink?"
"Then, a cup of Twilight Whisper, and a cup of Mocha Mocha."
During this period——
In Albedo's alchemy workshop, Mond's chief alchemist was frowning at this moment.
He looked at the room that seemed to have been ravaged by a strong wind, and his heart was slightly disturbed.
...Did an accident happen again?
He half squatted down and picked up a long strand of hair that had fallen on the ground.
Under the sunlight, the hair is as clear and beautiful as waves.
Wind Flower Chapter-Act 1: Past, Present, Future (Part 2)
…It’s the Wind Flower Festival of the new year again.
After concentrating on completing all the paperwork, Qin let out a light breath, picked up the cold coffee, and went to the window where she could see the scenery of the city.
Feeling slightly comforted, she took a sip of coffee.
The mellow coffee with sour and bitter flavors blended on her taste buds, and the endless stimulation constantly cheered her up after working for a long time, which had made her depressed.
When she was a child, she was no different from other children living in Mondstadt, and she looked forward to the Windblume Festival.
Only on that day would her mother let her put aside her rigorous training and go to the streets herself.
Witness with your own eyes and heart what kind of precious freedom this capital city, loved by the God of Wind, possesses.
At that time, she was deeply proud and expectant about this.
