Seraphina halfheartedly defended her subordinate: "Don't say that. Even the God of Wisdom believes that humans feel refreshed after going to the toilet. Maybe he just didn't understand our meeting just now and wanted to relax."

Ying couldn't imagine that these words came from the mouth of the God of Wisdom, but it was possible if they came from Seraphina's mouth.

"Are you sure you're not framing that sister of yours?"

Seraphina's eyes widened and she pouted in grievance: "Yingbao, you don't believe me? If you don't believe me, go ask your brother. Nashida also suggested that he go to the toilet!"

I swear to God, she didn't lie this time!

Ying pinched Seraphina again and waited until she grimaced before letting go.

You knew I couldn't ask, but you wanted to hurt my feelings, didn't you?

Seeing Seraphina's solemn oath, Ying still chose to believe: "Okay, okay, I believe you."

Seraphina smiled brightly.

But it was hard for Ying to imagine under what circumstances Nashida would say such strange and illogical words.

She pressed, "When did she say that?"

"dreaming."

fluorescent:"......"

If she didn't know that the God of Wisdom held the power over dreams, she would really think Seraphina was playing a trick on her.

Suddenly, Ying felt something was wrong.

She was also led astray by Seraphina. Aren't they here to prepare paper jams? Why are they arguing about the God of Wisdom and going to the toilet?

The banquet is going to start tonight, so get to work!

Seraphina also remembered what they were here for.

She walked around the warehouse where the mechanical figurines were kept, picked out a few, and took out several design drafts: "These are all the stationery I have designed. Let them choose for themselves."

Ying took a look and found that these styles were all very exquisite and classic, so there was no problem of being outdated.

She was satisfied: "Well, that's enough, let your little machine man do his work."

Seraphina set up the behavior pattern for the mechanical man and checked it twice to make sure that the incident of "Lord Ryota being beaten for no reason" would not happen again.

"Let them cook, let's go have some drinks." Seraphina hadn't had time to drink tea because of the meeting just now, and now she was a little greedy.

Ying ordered without hesitation: "I don't want black tea, I want fruit tea."

"Fruit tea... I remember there should be some jam for making fruit tea. Let me check it out. If not, how about I make you some freshly squeezed juice?"

......

The two girls walked away hand in hand, leaving behind a group of mechanical figures working.

"You're so lucky, there's still a bottle of jam." Seraphina rummaged through the cupboard and found a small lucky bag at the deepest part of the cupboard.

This small lucky bag is a product of alchemy, and is similar to a traveler's backpack. The things you put in will remain the same when you take them out. There is no need to worry about the jam going bad and poisoning the fluorescent.

"You finished your fruit tea and you didn't refill it?"

This is not something this beverage-head would do! This guy never gets lazy about this matter.

Seraphina rolled her eyes. "It wasn't finished. Ergou spilled it. Last time, I made some jam with raspberries and mint, and made Ergou a cup of fruit tea."

Ying could guess what happened next without Seraphina telling her.

After taking a sip, Ergou set his eyes on Seraphina's drink. He attacked Seraphina's drink cabinet while Seraphina was away. Only the bottle in the lucky bag survived.

"But Ergou has learned his lesson. He knows that if he only takes the fruit tea, I will put it where he can't get it, so he just dismantled the whole cabinet."

If Seraphina gets angry, she will only scold it for destroying the house and will not think that it is eyeing the fruit tea made by Seraphina.

But it is obvious that Seraphina's IQ has a crushing advantage over Ergou, and Ergou can't fool her at all.

Thinking of how smart Ergou is, Ying was even more speechless: "Some Abyss Mages don't even think about their excuses and insist on saying they need to go to the toilet. Ergou is smarter than him."

Ah, why is the topic back here again?

The Abyss Mage urinated and ran away. Although Seraphina felt speechless, she could understand and comforted Ying: "Ah, some people will feel embarrassed about this kind of thing. I was the same when I was a child."

Expressing emotions in public is a real torture for people who are socially anxious or shy.

Ying's attention was immediately diverted. She looked at Seraphina, the most powerful leader of the Abyss Cult, in shock: "Really? Are you embarrassed too?"

Seraphina tilted her head: "I'm not born so thick-skinned, I developed this through training."

fluorescent:"......"

You admit that you are shameless, right?

......

Little Zhenxing is not socially anxious, but she was really shy when she was a child.

Ever since Zhongli introduced Little Pillow Star to the immortals, the immortals liked to visit Zhongli's house whenever they had time.

Of course, for the little girl Zhenxing, relatives often come to visit them in groups.

Every time this happened, she was surrounded by the fairies like a monkey.

For example, when she just learned to walk, the immortals watched her staggering as she walked, and they were so excited that they cried out as if they saw the law of nature die suddenly.

Children sleep a lot. When Xiao Zhenxing had not yet learned martial arts, she often did not get up even when the fairies came.

The fairies would also sneak into Zhongli's room when she wasn't paying attention, run to her bed, tickle her, pat her belly, and pinch her face.

After they woke her up, they pretended to chat with her as if nothing had happened, and then said lovingly and surprisedly: "Xiaoxing, are you awake? We have been here for a long time and have been chatting here. We saw that you were still sleeping, so we didn't call you."

But the little girl Zhenxing never thought about why these people came to her room to chat. She actually believed their nonsense and thought she woke up naturally.

She lay on the bed with lifeless eyes. She couldn't get up in front of everyone, nor could she continue sleeping. She could only shyly cover her head with the quilt and curl herself up, wondering whether she could ask the fairies to leave first.

At this time, the fairies still teased her, saying that they could tell at a glance that she had grown taller.

The little Pillow Star, who was growing very slowly, poked his head out from under the quilt and asked the fairies expectantly and foolishly, "How do you know I've grown taller?"

I don’t even know it myself!

"Because you look bigger than before when you're curled up."

The Pillow Star kid was in a daze.

It is known that when a child appears to be getting bigger, he or she is either getting taller or fatter.

Now little Zhenxing hasn't grown taller, but he has become bigger. I asked, what has increased?

Of course it’s weight!

The immortals added fuel to the fire: "It can't be that you have gained weight, Xiaoxing?"

Not only did she get fatter, but other people also knew that she got fatter! Unable to bear this blow, tears immediately welled up in the eyes of the little Zhenxing.

This trick of the fairies always works and always makes Little Pillow Star cry.

Seeing her crying, the fairies quickly told her that they were just teasing her and that she didn't get fatter, but became more beautiful.

But the next time they would make Little Pillow Star cry, as if they were stuck in a cycle.

Later, the little boy Zhenxing became desensitized.

If you wake me up, I will pester you to buy me snacks. If you say I have grown taller, I will believe you. If you say I have gained weight, I will assume that you mean I have become more beautiful.

The main feature is being thick-skinned and selectively believing.

......

fluorescent:"......"

The immortals in Liyue are so boring.

Now when talking about these things, Seraphina only feels amused: "After all, not everyone has so many relatives who like to tease children. Social phobia is understandable."

Her thick skin was originally trained by the immortals.

Ying commented on this: "They just don't learn the good things, but learn the bad things. I used to think you were quite quiet, but it turned out to be an illusion."

These idiots don't learn from Seraphina how to be a social leader, but instead just follow her to learn how to be sarcastic.

Seraphina pointed at her nose, incredulous: "Wen Jing? Me? Why do you have this impression of me?"

Seraphina believes that she is capable of the word "culture", but unless she is acting, she is definitely not capable of the word "quiet".

Doesn't she know how noisy she is?

Ying looked up at the sky with melancholy: "You don't understand."

Serafina: ?

......

This story begins five hundred years ago.

When in Kanreya, Ying was the princess of Kanreya, and Seraphina was the lost child that the Alberic family had just found.

The Alberic family holds a high status in Kanreya, but Seraphina is a marginal figure who does not participate in family affairs at all and has little fame.

At that time, Seraphina had no plan to stay in Kanreya for a long time. She only wanted to study for a few years and then return to Qianyan Army to inherit her teacher's legacy. Not to mention letting one or two injured teachers retire to the second line, at least she wouldn't have to travel so much.

Liyue and Kanreya are two countries after all.

In order not to bring trouble to her relatives and to be able to return to Liyue smoothly in the future, Seraphina took the initiative to avoid suspicion and never inquired about the political situation in Kanreya. She only paid a little attention to Kanreya's military technology.

This information is public, so it doesn't matter if she learns it.

Seraphina paid no attention to politics, nor did she take the initiative to make friends with ministers and princesses of Canrea. She even knew Piero and Dainsreb only because she had worked in the Royal Library, which was open to civilians.

The only person she took the initiative to contact was Rhinedot. After all, Seraphina was a graduate of the Sulun School and studied alchemy. Rhinedot's skills were too tempting to Seraphina.

Ying had only occasionally heard old Alberich talk about how his family had found a very smart child who liked to hang out in the library all day long and was unwilling to live at home and insisted on moving out alone.

In Ying's imagination, Seraphina should be a pretty, gentle and shy girl, but she had no intention of meeting her.

They have always been in this state where they don't see each other often, but they can see each other as long as one of them wants to, but they are too lazy to meet.

Later, when they were traveling together, Seraphina was completely hopeless and spent the whole day like a wandering soul, as if she would float away if they weren't paying attention.

Ying herself is a person of few words. The most talkative person among their three traveling companions is actually Dainsleb, who is so talkative that he can't even fart and speaks in riddles whenever he opens his mouth.

No one started a conversation, and Seraphina was even quieter, which made Ying think that Seraphina was a quiet girl who didn't talk much.

......

When Seraphina couldn't get any more answers, she changed the subject: "So when did you discover my true nature?"

Ying's expression became indescribable: "When we were at Kawanyi."

Seraphina recalled for a moment and suddenly became hesitant: "I was acting! I'm not like that normally!"

Ying was talking about the time when the two of them were traveling with Dainsleb and passed through Kawan Station.

The relationship between the desert and the rainforest began to deteriorate after the death of the Great Compassion Tree King, but it did not mean that the desert and the rainforest broke up as soon as the Great Compassion Tree King died.

Although the great sage at that time did not recognize the newborn little auspicious grass king, he still faithfully carried out the orders of the great compassionate tree king.

The desert is barren but it also has many good things. The 500-year-old Kawan Post is a trading zone for exchanging materials between the desert and the rainforest. Although it is not as prosperous as a port, it is also very prosperous.

Before they turned into abyss monsters, even if they were cursed with immortality, they were still human beings with human physiological needs.

Before entering the desert, the three of them stopped at Kawanyi and replenished some supplies.

Dainsleb went to buy water, Ying and Seraphina went to buy dry food, and agreed to meet at the tavern after buying them.

There were quite a few Gilded Brigades playing finger-guessing games and drinking in the tavern.

Ying looked at Seraphina who was lowering her head and suggested, "Let's go sit over there, away from them."

Seraphina nodded slightly.

As the alcohol took effect, the mercenaries began to talk about the story of the Red King.

"Do you think there really is an eternal oasis?"

"The Eternal Oasis is the Red King's miracle, of course it exists!"

"It would be great if we could enter the Eternal Oasis. The goods produced by our tribe are getting less and less. Many young people have joined the Gilded Brigade to make a living, but they are also starving."

"What do you mean by Eternal Oasis? Have you ever seen it? Have you ever seen it? It's just a legend to fool children, and you guys take it seriously?"

"That's right. If you have that time, you might as well think about how much you'll have left after paying taxes from your earnings this month."

Ying didn't know much about Teyvat. She turned around and wanted to ask the local Seraphina what the Eternal Oasis was, but she saw Seraphina's eyes shining: "Eternal Oasis, why didn't I think of it before?!"

It was the first time that Ying saw Seraphina so excited.

Seraphina's goal has always been clear. She is willing to embark on a journey with Ying and Dainsreb in order to find a way to solve the curse of undeadness on her body.

Seraphina was still very naive at that time. She believed that there must be a way to bypass the law of nature and solve the curse of immortality.

When she was studying at the Order Academy, Seraphina had heard the name of the Eternal Oasis and knew the related legends.

Perhaps, there are clues to the curse of immortality in the Eternal Oasis.

With a glimmer of hope in her heart, Seraphina went out and bought a box of honey-colored foundation under Ying's surprised gaze.

"With this, I can disguise myself as a desert man."
