The journey to Teyvat from the Abyss Mage

The knocking on the door continued. With Kong's strength, not to mention an ordinary wooden door, even the door of a golden house could not stop Kong's finger. But he just kept knocking on the door stubbornly, waiting for Luo Mu to "invite" him in.

Luo Mu sighed in embarrassment, and sat up with great effort. He flicked his right hand, which was resting on his knees, and a very thin but resilient ice thread shot out from between his fingers and froze on the door lock. Luo Mu used this ice thread to twist the door lock with his wrist, and then shook his hand to withdraw the ice thread, and the door opened a crack.

After the system upgrade, although it did not bring Luo Mu any new skills, his elemental control began to increase exponentially. Not only could he easily control the form and power of elemental magic, he could even give some elemental magic the characteristics of other elements. For example, Luo Mu could integrate the characteristics of water elements into the hard and fragile ice element, giving it a toughness that ordinary ice elements do not have.

Of course, this ability is not without limitations. At this stage, Luo Mu can only give the elements some insignificant minor characteristics. If he wants a piece of ice or a ball of water to burn violently, or freeze the flame into ice, it is still unrealistic.

The door was slowly pushed open, and Kong, who looked particularly pale in the moonlight, walked into the room. Luo Mu was surprised to see that behind Kong, there was a bookish black-haired young man, who wore black-framed glasses and a beige gown that looked a bit like Inazuma's clothes. His face was also a typical oriental look.

This is... Inazuma people? Humans who serve the abyss? Luo Mu was a little confused for a moment.

And Kong... was also a little confused for a moment, but what he couldn't understand was Luo Mu's current clothes.

"Uh..." Looking at the young man (?) wearing a simple white long nightgown under the moonlight, as pure as an ice sculpture, Kong was speechless for a moment. Even though he was knowledgeable, he had never seen an abyss mage of this kind.

Luo Mu's expression remained unchanged, but he smiled bitterly in his heart. He found that although Kong's reaction was a bit exaggerated, the young man next to him did not seem to be very surprised, and there was a hint of appreciation in his eyes.

He probably doesn’t know that I’m a man...Luo Mu guessed.

"Oh, I didn't expect Mr. Luomu to be so elegant. With your appearance, you will definitely shine in the Inazuma custom industry!" At this moment, the young man suddenly slapped his thigh and praised Luomu highly.

Luo Mu: ...

Kong coughed twice in embarrassment to stop the young man from making dangerous remarks. He pulled over a chair and sat down, while the young man stood behind him.

"This is Yuan Shang." Kong took the initiative to introduce, "The Fire Singer of the Abyss Cult."

Yuan Shang! Is there such a person in this world? Luo Mu's eyes fixed, and when he looked at Yuan Shang, who looked like a young man, he was already full of fear.

Yuanshang spread his hands innocently, looking weak and helpless.

Liar... Luo Mu muttered in his heart, he turned his gaze back to Kong and asked slowly: "Your Highness, why did you come to see me so late at night?

Seeing Luo Mu speak directly, Kong did not hold back and said directly: "After we get to the Wolf Territory, there are some things I need to explain to you, so as to avoid..."

"Lest you lose control in the future and hinder the Abyss's plan." Yuan Shang continued.

"...Yes." Kong narrowed his eyes and seemed to be reluctantly acknowledging Yuan Shang's statement.

Luo Mu chuckled and said, "Your Highness, you seem to have misunderstood something. I am now on the same side as the Seven Gods. Even if I don't lose control, I will definitely hinder your plan."

"No, you don't understand." Kong waved his hand: "What I mean is, don't let the incident in the Wolf Territory and the slaughter of the Abyss Cult affect your rational judgment in the future."

"I know it's impossible to make you forget that incident. If I want you to understand that action, I have to tell you a lot of things. And..." Sora lowered his head and said sullenly, "I do owe her... and you an explanation. But not now."

"Even if I understand your painstaking efforts, I will never forgive you for what you did that night." Luo Mu said bluntly: "To be honest, I can guess some of your intentions, but sometimes, understanding... does not mean forgiveness."

After the fight in the Wolf Territory, Luo Mu was certain that Kong would not kill him, so he dared to say such bold words. Otherwise, even if he had ten times the courage, he would not dare to criticize Kong for anything.

It is good to have a sense of justice, but no matter how strong the sense of justice of a dead person is, it will not have any effect. Luo Mu still hopes that his justice can be more useful.

"This is stupid." Yuan Shang said in a deep voice: "You are just torturing yourself."

Luo Mu smiled slightly: "Yes, it's not worth it. I can't do anything but I have to keep remembering those people..." At this point, his face suddenly turned cold: "But some accounts are not calculated this way. The chips filled with human lives can't buy the world and people's hearts."

Luo Mu's words were very decisive. After he finished speaking, neither Yuanshang nor Kong responded.

Inside the house, there was a dull silence.

"You're right." In the end, Kong was the first to speak: "But the Abyss has never been afraid of the world and human nature. If you want to reap the fruits, someone must sacrifice."

"Next time, Your Highness, please sacrifice people from the Abyss Cult instead of ordinary people." Luo Mu replied unhappily.

"I see." The corners of Sora's mouth suddenly twisted into a mocking smile: "You, the traveler, want to be a saint."

“I don’t know if you are a saint or not.” Luo Mu’s tone remained unchanged: “But if you guys are going to play the same trick again in Liyue, the Seven Stars of Liyue will definitely not stand idly by. God is watching what you do, so Your Highness should… accumulate some virtue.”

"Hehe." A sarcastic sneer came to his ears. Luo Mu looked up and found that Kong Yuyuan had disappeared without a trace at some point.

Huh... Luo Mu let out a long sigh and fell back on the bed. The conversation between him and Sora just now kept replaying in his mind. A large part of it came from his heart, but there was another part...

I hope I’m right, and I hope he can understand... Luo Mu closed his eyes tiredly.

…………

"Your Highness, that kid..." In an empty alley, Yuan Shang and Kong were walking side by side.

Kong shook his head and interrupted him: "Has that Abyss Apostle been dealt with?"

"It's been dealt with." Yuan Shang bowed and responded, "I asked the Abyss Mage of Mondstadt to notify it to come to Mondstadt and leak the news to let the Fatui think that the Heart of God is in its hands. Naturally, someone will take it over. Recently, the Knights have been keeping a close eye on the Fatui. As soon as the Fatui made a move, the Knights took action. Kaia and Lisa followed the Fatui's footsteps and 'happened' to run into the Abyss Apostle and killed it. Our people only passed the news internally at the beginning and did not intervene directly."

Sora nodded slowly: "What about our people on this secret line in Mond?"

"They were all killed, not a single one was left alive." Yuan Shang bowed and replied, "I have transferred people from Inazuma to fill the vacancies, and they should be able to be re-employed tomorrow."

Kong nodded with satisfaction. He turned around and looked in the direction of Jellos's house again.

The most satisfying thing for him right now, besides the fact that his sister was safe and sound, was that the two guys he could trust for the time being were not fools.

This time, his conversation with Mondstadt and Luomu seemed tense and ended unpleasantly, but both sides got some information they wanted:

Luomu confirmed that Kong was forced to kill people and was not evil, and that he would continue to communicate with Luomu in secret, and Yuanshang would also take care of him in Inazuma. Kong knew the current situation: Mondstadt was about to contact Liyue, and... this incident seemed to have attracted the attention of some beings, so he had to be more cautious next time.

Ha, this guy still doesn't understand this world well enough. Kong couldn't help but smile to himself: As long as he appeared under this starry sky, he never stopped watching.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little irritated. So he stretched out his right hand and raised his middle finger to the sky.

This was a gesture he learned in a certain world, and it probably meant...grass (a kind of plant).
