Since Gaming wasn’t in Liyue Harbor at the mont, Su Yuan and Aether needed to find another companion to join their team for support.
So, the two of them began to discuss possible alternatives...
"Yanfei would actually be a good choice," Su Yuan said.
"If Mondstadt’s laws could apply to her as well, the Knights of Favonius could issue a decree declaring that all the monsters inside the Spiral Abyss are criminals. That way, those monsters would naturally beco the ’targets’ of the Eerie Yanfei..."
"Actually, Ningguang would also be a good candidate," Aether added.
"After all, her Eerie transformation condition is quite similar to Lisa’s — they both care deeply about their treasured possessions. For Lisa, it’s the library’s collection of books, while for Ningguang, it’s her precious antiques."
"So, if we let Ningguang follow Lisa’s approach and place her antiques in the path of the monsters, once those monsters trample and destroy them, Ningguang would naturally fall into her Eerie state..."
"Mm." Su Yuan nodded in agreent with Aether’s reasoning, and together they headed to the Jade Chamber to find Ningguang.
After a few polite exchanges, they explained the situation and their request.
Ningguang readily agreed to go to Mondstadt to help.
At that mont inside the Jade Chamber, Su Yuan and Aether also saw soone they hadn’t encountered during their previous visit to Liyue — the Yuheng of the Liyue Qixing, Keqing.
"Traveler, I wasn’t able to et you last ti you ca to Liyue due to so matters," Keqing said with a smile.
"And Su Yuan, I’ve heard a lot about you. Thank you for everything you’ve done for Liyue — and for all of Teyvat."
Then she turned to Ningguang and said, "Ningguang, you can go to Mondstadt without worry. While you’re away, I and the other Qixing will take good care of Liyue."
"With you, Yuheng Star Keqing, handling things, I can leave without a trace of worry," Ningguang replied with a smile and a nod.
"By the way, Keqing," Su Yuan asked, "what do you think your own Eerie transformation condition might be?"
Being asked that question, Keqing paused to think, then answered seriously, "I’ve always been soone who works quickly and decisively — I dislike idleness and procrastination."
"If I were to have a condition that could trigger my Eerie transformation, it would probably be either ... or soone else I see... being lazy or delaying things."
"Indeed, that’s quite possible..." Aether said with a smile.
"Looks like everyone around Keqing has to work efficiently—no slacking or procrastinating allowed!"
With that, the discussions about seeking reinforcents from Fontaine, Inazuma, and Liyue ca to a temporary end.
Aether then turned to Su Yuan and asked, "Su Yuan, once things in Mondstadt are settled, where should we head next?"
Hearing that question, Su Yuan couldn’t help but feel a headache coming on...
Even now, he still wasn’t sure how they could possibly gain the upper hand or achieve victory—especially since the Dendro Archon, Nahida, had already been corrupted and controlled by the Eerie power, and now possessed the ability to read minds.
And as for everyone in Suru... he had no idea what their current situation was.
"Sigh..." Su Yuan let out a soft sigh, speaking helplessly.
"Honestly, I don’t even know what to do anymore..."
"Natlan is completely unfamiliar territory for us—we have no clue what’s going on there... And over in Suru, the Eerie Nahida has beco an insurmountable wall, a mountain too high to climb..."
"In short, there’s no point discussing all that now. Let’s just focus on the present and finish resolving the situation in Mondstadt first."
As Su Yuan spoke, sothing seed to co to mind, and he continued, "Aether, you can stay here for now. Dvalin, will be coming to Liyue soon to pick people up anyway, so I can go back alone to deliver the ssage."
"Otherwise, if you co with through the teleport waypoint back to Mondstadt, you’ll just end up suffering through that excruciating, thousand-blade pain again—the way you did last ti when the waypoint was corrupted by the Eerie force."
After that, Su Yuan returned to Mondstadt alone.
When he arrived at the Knights of Favonius headquarters, he was surprised to find that Fontaine’s Clorinde and Sigewinne had already arrived, being greeted by Jean and Lisa.
Su Yuan thought to himself, As expected of the Anemo Dragon Sovereign, Dvalin—he really does move as swiftly as the wind!
"Oh my, if it isn’t Su Yuan! It’s been such a long ti!" Sigewinne greeted him with a bright smile.
"Truly, it’s been far too long!"
"Mm, Su Yuan, long ti no see. I hope you’ve been well," Clorinde greeted calmly.
"Su Yuan, it feels like you’ve lost quite a bit of weight since I last saw you," Sigewinne said, pressing a finger to her chin as she looked him up and down with concern.
"Have you not been eating properly? How about I prepare a special nutritious dinner for you tonight?"
Hearing that, Su Yuan imdiately broke into a cold sweat and hurriedly waved his hands.
"Head Nurse Sigewinne, thank you for your kindness... but the reason I invited you to Mondstadt wasn’t for you to cook for ..."
"Our main objective is still to fight against those monsters in the Spiral Abyss that have been corrupted by the Eerie force—and push all the way to the twelfth floor. That’s what really matters, so please, let’s not get our priorities mixed up!"
"Haha, Su Yuan, look at how flustered you are. I was only joking," Sigewinne said with a light laugh, amused by his reaction.
"Master Jean, the reinforcents from Liyue have already been confird—it’ll be Qiqi and Ningguang," Su Yuan said, turning toward her.
"Ningguang, the Tianquan herself?" Jean’s eyes widened slightly in surprise.
"I didn’t expect that soone of her position would personally take the field. She truly doesn’t put on any airs—no wonder she’s one of Liyue’s great leaders."
"Wait, Jean, don’t you think the person least likely to act high and mighty might actually be you?" Su Yuan chuckled helplessly.
"You’re the Acting Grand Master of the Knights of Favonius, yet you’re always on the front lines, serving the people—working tirelessly from and for the masses. You’re the very definition of a respected leader!"
Jean smiled at the complint, her expression brightening.
"This is simply what I should do. It’s nothing worth praising."
"By now, Dvalin should almost be back from Inazuma..." Su Yuan murmured thoughtfully.
"Once he returns, I’ll imdiately ask him to head to Liyue."
"When all the reinforcents have arrived, we can finally sit down to discuss the full plan—and then set out for the twelfth floor of the Spiral Abyss!"
