The journey to Teyvat from the Abyss Mage

Death, for some people, is the end of everything, but for others, it is the beginning of everything.

Jellos hugged the unconscious Luomu and sat beside the trial field in a daze. He carefully put the rapier "Return Home" back into his cane. He was the only ordinary person who survived without the Eye of God. He should have helped Kaia and the others collect the dead, but his legs had already gone weak. If it weren't for Luomu's desperate protection, he would have become one of the corpses.

Mr. Albert died. This prayer priest who was a fanatical fan of Miss Barbara used his body to block the bite of a beast cub for Barbara. And the man Jack also died at the hands of some damned monster. He held the dagger in his hand until his death and never retreated.

He finally became a real man and no longer had to rely on eating a few steaks or beating a few hillbillies to prove it.

In this bloody Shura field, every living and dead person has a story of one kind or another, either ordinary or exciting, but under the butcher's knife of the abyss, all of this has lost its meaning. The only concept that still exists is death. If one more thing needs to be added, it is numbness.

th.

Kaeya and Lisa contacted Mondstadt in their own ways, asking Captain Jean to send someone to the Wolf Territory to deal with the aftermath. They were powerless, and did not have the heart to personally see their temporary comrades off, at least not now.

Perhaps they all still have a faint hope in their hearts: What if all this is fake? This killing is just an illusion or a dream, the Lord of the Wind still has the Heart of God, and the Abyss has not been able to enslave the Wolf King of the North Wind. As long as tonight passes and the sun rises, this nightmare will collapse and dissipate. Everyone will open their eyes. Mr. Albert will continue to entangle Miss Barbara, the manly Jack will still struggle on the road to manliness, and the Knights of the West Wind will still chat with the adventurers... No, it may not be like this, but as long as everyone is still alive, everything will be fine!

So everyone gathered around Luo Mu, sitting in silence, hoping to gain some warmth and comfort from each other.

There is no warmth, only endless coldness and despair. This night is particularly long.

…………

Inside the secret realm, Kong and the half-dead Apostle of the Abyss silently erased all traces that had ever existed there. In less than half a quarter of an hour, this place turned into an ordinary secret realm, as if this dark cave had nothing to do with the wolf disaster.

The plans of the Abyss Cult must not leave any traces. This is the rule set by Kong as the prince of the Abyss. Regardless of success or failure, the Abyss cannot leave any obvious evidence or tails. Even if they meet the parties involved in the plan, or it is obvious that it is the work of the Abyss, they must erase all traces.

"Your Highness."

A hesitant voice sounded behind Kong. Kong did not turn around, but waved his hand to let the Apostle of the Abyss go out. After a wave of space fluctuations came from behind him, Kong slowly spoke:

"Yuan Shang, what are you doing here? Has the Inazuma situation been completed?"

"Everything is ready, just waiting for Bai Ye to appear." Yuan Shang responded.

"You didn't answer the other question." Kong turned around, reached out his hand and lightly flicked the forehead of the pitch-black king wolf. The restless giant wolf instantly calmed down, and the dark purple patterns on its bone armor dimmed.

Yuan Shang hesitated for a moment, then suddenly knelt on one knee and said, "I think that after this incident, you need a guy who is more like a human being to have a good chat with you."

"Heh." A sneer came from the shadow in the corner.

Kong was silent. He looked at his hands, his lips becoming tighter and tighter. He suddenly became furious and raised his hand violently, sending out a strange and inexplicable force towards the corner. After this attack, silence immediately returned to the corner.

"Do you also think that I killed too cruelly this time?" Kong did not let Yuanshang stand up, but sat on the ground. Seeing this, Yuanshang also sat down and looked at Kong in surprise.

"...You are not suitable to play a murderer." Yuan Shang said bluntly: "I can feel that you are...very similar to me."

"Oh?" Kong seemed to be interested: "Tell me, how are they similar?"

"You are like me, good at deceiving people, like to play tricks, and hope to solve all problems by staying out of it, but the only thing you don't like is killing people."

Sora gave a bitter laugh, "Really? That's how I look to you."

"But today, Chief Benlang, how can I not kill people? How can I kill less?" Kong's voice suddenly became painful. He was used to killing, but as Yuan Shang said, he hated killing, just as he hated the law of nature.

What's more, she was still there. In order to conceal his identity, his killing order included his beloved sister! Just a little bit, she might never be able to continue the journey. How could he stay calm?

"Barbatos is such an idiot! I asked him to hand over the Heart of God, and he just did it? Why didn't he negotiate with me? He could even fight with me a few times, but he just threw the thing to me without even trying to get out of the way. What kind of thing is this? Huh?"

"You have held the Wolf King hostage," Yuan Shang reminded him, "If He hesitates, the Wolf King's safety may become more urgent. If He hesitates, He will no longer be the Barbatos."

"I know," Kong scratched his hair, "but...but what is Wang Lang? What He prepared secretly, the things that Rock God and Thunder God planned, aren't they much more treasonous than abandoning Wang Lang? He can make up his mind on such a thing, how can he be affected by such a thing!"

"So Your Highness is worried about this matter." Yuan Shang suddenly realized, "Let me give you an example. If... as long as we sacrifice Your Highness the Princess, our plan will be accomplished immediately. Will you do it?"

Sora shook his head silently, his attitude firm.

"Yes, if it were me, I would have done it. This is the same as Barbatos's decision." Yuan Shang clapped his hands lightly: "This matter is just unreasonable for you, but for Him, it is the most cost-effective choice."

Kong suddenly raised his head and looked towards Yuanshang.

"Of course, even so," Yuan Shang added, "according to our plan, people still have to be killed. The first is to separate us from Mondstadt, so that some people will think that the Abyss and Mondstadt cannot make peace. The second is what you said, there are too many people. Among so many Knights of Favonius and adventurers, there may be spies and spies planted by other countries. If they know that the God of Wind has lost his position, how will Mondstadt deal with it?"

"No matter what, those people must die!" Yuanshang finally concluded.

Kong shook his head. He suddenly stretched out a hand and spread out his palm. Between his five fingers, a streak of light was constantly rushing left and right, but it could never escape from Kong's palm.

“This is…” Yuanshang unconsciously moved closer, trying to see the light clearly.

"The power to overthrow Sky Island." Kong said calmly. He clasped his hands back and put away the light.

"If we can succeed in the end, then everything now will be meaningless. I can reverse it with one hand. If we fail, they will just leave this world one step earlier, and I will follow soon." Luo Mu murmured to himself.

Yuanshang said nothing, but just listened quietly to his prince's incoherent nonsense.

"These are all excuses," Kong sighed and stood up. His eyes once again flashed with the brutality and determination of the Lord of the Abyss. "I killed people and did evil. I admit it, but I don't regret it. I am not allowed to regret it at this moment!"

"Yuanshang, find a way to get rid of the Abyss Apostle who saw you coming. I still need you to be a marginal figure in the cult. No one can know that you are closely connected with me." Kong ordered coldly.

“Also, find a way to inform the lady to prepare to take over the Heart of God, and then have the Thunder Singer go to Liyue to prepare. Our work is not done yet!”

There are no elegies in the abyss, and no one mourns the dead, except the two here.

There are elegies in the world, and the whole city will fall into great sorrow after a few days, but the people are gone and the elegies can't bring back anything.

There are only regrets, regrets again and again.
