After breaking down the last wall, what came into view was an open cave.

A humanoid monster had its back to them. It turned around when it heard the noise and greeted them in the unskilled Teyvatian common language: "You're here."

If this kind of description is put into Liyue's martial arts novels, no matter whether it is good or evil, the next person to be introduced will definitely be a very powerful master.

But the thing is…

This guy had been squatting and peeping at the entrance of the road he had dug out. He stood up and turned around, trying to remain calm, when he heard the sound of the rock bird hitting the wall.

Paimon whispered in Sora's ear, "They're sneaky. If you don't know, you might think they're a group of treasure robbers."

null:"......"

To be honest, he felt the same way.

As he followed Seraphina in smashing the wall, Sora was still constantly imagining what kind of monster would dare to challenge Seraphina and the Cult of the Abyss.

Although he knew that the other party was not very smart, Kong still imagined a tall and mighty monster.

Unexpectedly, what I saw in the end was a monster version of the treasure-stealing group.

Seraphina seemed to realize something and covered Sora's mouth with one hand and Paimon's mouth with the other.

The monster waited for a while, and when he heard nothing, he groped his way back to his squatting position.

Seraphina released her hands from covering their mouths and made a "hush" gesture.

Seeing Paimon nod, Seraphina walked a little further along the mountain wall and punched the wall hard.

The monster spun again, stood up, and greeted in Common: "You are here."

null:"......"

Paimon: "..."

No one said anything, and the monster crouched back down again.

After repeating this several times, Paimon kept pointing her finger at her mouth, expressing her strong desire to complain.

Seeing Seraphina nod, she could finally complain: "It didn't actually see us, did it?"

Seraphina continued to nod.

It turns out that this monster is blind and half deaf. When it hears any noise, it will say "You are coming" to the source of the sound.

Seeing that Paimon could speak now, Sora also asked, "What's going on?"

Seraphina used the Rock Bird to smash the wall, making such a loud noise, but the monster didn't seem to know that they were smashing the wall, and was squatting at the exit of the tunnel waiting for Seraphina to come over.

That would be fine, they were all standing here, and Paimon had complained twice, how could this guy still be so clueless?

Seraphina pointed to the mirror in Sora's hand.

"Let me see, let me see!" Paimon responded very actively, took out the mirror and looked around, "What! I can't see anything at all!"

Through the mirror, Sora and Paimon could see that the place was completely shrouded in black air.

Sora immediately pinpointed the source of the problem: "You did this?"

Seraphina raised her eyebrows and said with her eyes: You don't think I didn't do anything?

Even though Seraphina appears to be calm on the surface, she is still filled with hatred in her heart.

Her power had already enveloped the entire cave when she started to break down the wall, but Sora and Paimon were not afraid of the erosion of the abyss and were protected by Seraphina, so they could not feel it.

Under Seraphina's oppression, the monster could not see anything, nor could it feel how far Seraphina's breath was from him.

To put it simply, the feeling of the monster is - why is Seraphina everywhere?

Sora was still curious: "I can understand if he can't see, but why can he hear the sound and hasn't discovered us yet?"

After floating in the abyss for so long, Seraphina could basically guess the reason: "This is the first time it has come to the surface, and it has no way of distinguishing any sound other than the roar of the monsters."

There are no caves or walls in the abyss, not even the sound of flowing water or wind, only the howling of monsters.

For the monsters that suddenly came to the ground, without the coordination of vision and smell, they actually cannot distinguish between natural sounds and man-made sounds, nor can they distinguish the voices of different people.

So this monster didn't even realize that Sora and Paimon were a treasure-stealing group - of course, it probably didn't even know what a treasure-stealing group was.

But as soon as Seraphina spoke, the monster reacted.

After spinning and standing up again, it straightened its chest towards Seraphina, placed its left hand on its chest and raised its right hand high, then bent down and took a step back: "Welcome to my territory, the 'King' of the Abyss."

Seraphina always felt that its behavior looked familiar.

Seeing that Seraphina didn't react, the monster took a deep breath and said exaggeratedly, "Ah - what a decadent and sweet smell, just like a rotten cake. I didn't expect that a small character like me would be worthy of the King's personal guidance."

Seraphina: "......"

The strange wording and sentence structure, coupled with the strange accent, are very similar to those of the group of intellectual students who had just entered the College of Education.

God's Mouth Paimon continued to speak, expressing what Sora and Seraphina were thinking: "Rotten cake is obviously sour and smelly, what kind of weird words are these?"

Sora even had the leisure to complain about Paimon: "Paimon, is the taste of the cake all you care about?"

Obviously “personal guidance” is more worthy of complaints!

Paimon and Sora's train of thought didn't match, so he shouted back, "Believe it or not, Seraphina's focus isn't on it either?"

Seraphina actually responded to Paimon: "I was wondering, since it calls me 'king', does that mean your sister is a generation younger than me?"

After all, Ying is Her Royal Highness the Princess.

null:"......"

If we round it off this way, wouldn't I be a generation younger than Seraphina?

The monster just found out who Seraphina was talking to, and used his fingers to pick up the strands of hair on his forehead: "Oh? It seems that the 'king' also brought his people with him? I think that no matter whether your people are rich or poor, with wine glasses or nothing, it will not affect the duel between me and you."

Seraphina finally understood why she felt this guy's behavior was familiar.

Little Paimon has been chattering non-stop today: "Did he learn this sentence from Funina? Does he really understand what this sentence means?"

Seraphina unconsciously began to worry about Fernina: "Why did it imitate Fernina?"

Paimon explained, "You just came back and you don't know, but recently the videotapes of Funina attending various events when she was the water god are selling like hot cakes and are all over the streets of Fontaine."

Seraphina: “…” Well, she was worrying for nothing.

It is estimated that this monster came to the ground and learned some human culture, and unconsciously became a crude imitator of Funina.

The monster mistook Sora and Paimon for members of the Abyss Cult, and sowed discord between them in a strange tone: "'King', please forgive my bluntness. It is not a good decision for you to bring your people around now, whether they are rich or poor, with wine glasses or with nothing. You know, no monster can resist the smell of you."
