Su Yuan and Aether continued their conversation, discussing information and intelligence regarding the Eerie.
However, as Su Yuan observed Aether's remarkably calm expression, he couldn't help but feel a bit puzzled...
Everything they were discussing was explosive information, yet Aether remained so composed.
Should he say it was expected of the protagonist?
He truly remained unfazed no matter the situation!
Moreover, he had even preemptively stated the aning of Su Yuan's na earlier, as if he had foreseen everything...
"So, in order to prevent Chevreuse from falling into a permanent Eerie state, and with the consent of both her and her father, we sprinkled the Primordial Sea's water on him, dissolving him and turning him back into an Oceanid..."
Su Yuan noticed that Aether's expression changed slightly as he said this, so he continued:
"Because right now, we don't have a clear answer regarding the exact conditions of Chevreuse's Eerie transformation. Our preliminary judgnt is that it's triggered by her beloved father losing consciousness and falling into a coma..."
"But fortunately, after Donatello dissolved, Chevreuse didn't show any abnormalities... This also proves one thing—those who are dissolved by the Primordial Sea's water and revert to Oceanids not only do not die, but there's also a high probability that they retain their consciousness."
In fact, Su Yuan had already anticipated this.
If those who reverted to Oceanids completely lost their consciousness, then how did Mules and Silver stand up to protect Navia in the original events?
"I've already asked Tartaglia to follow Kirara and prevent anyone from giving her a bad review."
Aether spoke up, and this statent once again caught Su Yuan off guard.
Why did Aether sound as if he had foreseen the future?
"Aether... do you know sothing?" Su Yuan narrowed his eyes and looked at Aether with a suspicious expression.
"Yes, Su Yuan." Aether nodded with certainty.
"I know that I really like you... so much that I can't help myself..."
Su Yuan: ???
Had Aether been beaten silly by an Eerie hilichurl?
Or had he already been corrupted by the Eerie?
Why else would he be saying such abstract things...
anwhile, Aether wore an expression of utter despair.
He didn't want to speak anymore.
He didn't want to explain anything.
The more he tried to explain, the worse the misunderstanding beca... and the harder it was to clear things up.

"Lord Duke, this visit has been most rewarding." Kamisato Ayato smiled as he firmly shook Wriothesley's hand.
Wriothesley also wore a faint smile as he glanced at the exquisitely decorated small box in Ayato's hand.
"I hope that the gift I've prepared for Her Excellency will be to her liking."
"Haha, don't worry, Lord Duke." Kamisato Ayato let out a hearty laugh, but he quickly realized he shouldn't have laughed like that.
Regaining his usual composure, he continued calmly, "Her Excellency the Shogun will certainly like this gift."
The Inazuman delegation accompanying Kamisato Ayato looked at the scene with so confusion, whispering among themselves:
"What's going on here? Have you ever seen the clan head laugh like that before?"
"And weren't we here for a diplomatic exchange? Why are we leaving in less than an hour?"
"Yeah, according to the plan, we were supposed to learn dical techniques from Head Nurse Sigewinne, but I haven't seen her at all."
"Stop talking, stop talking. The clan head must have his reasons for his arrangents!"
"Besides, we don't know if there are spies among us placed by the clan head. Be careful not to get yourselves into trouble by saying too much!"
"Head Clan Kamisato, since you've co all the way to Fontaine, have you considered paying a visit to Neuvillette and Furina?" Wriothesley looked at Kamisato Ayato and spoke slowly.
"No need for that. My visit to Fontaine this ti is not an official one, so there's no need to trouble them." Kamisato Ayato replied with a smile.
"Since I've achieved my goal, I shall take my leave now."
"Take care." Wriothesley gave a slight wave, bidding farewell to Kamisato Ayato.
After Kamisato Ayato and the Inazuman delegation left ropide Fortress, Wriothesley turned to his subordinates and instructed:
"I'm heading to the Court of Fontaine."
"As for Head Nurse Sigewinne, there's no need to look for her anymore..."
"She submitted her resignation to yesterday—permanently."
His subordinates listened with puzzled expressions, especially the nurses from the infirmary.
Just this morning, they had still seen Head Nurse Sigewinne at the dical ward...

"Knock—knock—knock..."
Kirara knocked on the door, her voice carrying a hint of urgency as she called out:
"Sir, your delivery has arrived. Please open the door and sign for it!"
Before long, the door opened, and the person inside frowned as they spoke:
"You're Kirara, the top courier of Komaniya Express?"
Glancing at the slightly damaged package in her hands, the person took it and muttered, "It's bad enough that it arrived late, but even the package itself is damaged?"
"Yes, that's right, it's ." Kirara nodded anxiously before imdiately bowing and apologizing, "I sincerely apologize! Your package was delayed, and the outer packaging is also slightly damaged!"
"I've heard about Komaniya Express before, but this is actually my first ti using your service. And judging by this experience... it's nothing impressive," the person said, frowning.
"You've left a very, very bad first impression."
"I'm sorry... I'm truly sorry! This was entirely my fault!"
"No matter how many tis you apologize, it won't change anything. I need compensation for my losses, and I absolutely must leave a bad review for both you and Komaniya Exp—"
Before the words "bad review" could leave his mouth, he suddenly felt a warm, yet unsettling gaze settle upon him...
Tartaglia appeared behind Kirara and spoke up, "Sir, may I ask what your package contained and how much it was worth in Mora?"
"Mr. Tartaglia? What are you doing here?" Kirara was startled to see him suddenly behind her.
"It's just so incense from Inazuma," the man replied, though he seed unsure of Tartaglia's identity.
"Not expensive, only about 10,000 Mora."
"10,000 Mora, huh..." Tartaglia nodded thoughtfully before reaching into his pocket, pulling out a check, and handing it to the man.
"My apologies, I don't have 10,000 Mora in cash on . But this is a bearer check from the Northland Bank. You can cash it at any Northland Bank branch across Teyvat."
The man stared at the check in confusion, only to see the withdrawal amount written on it—1,000,000 Mora.
Tartaglia had just activated his wealth ability.
"T-This check... it's not... fake, is it?" The man stared in disbelief at the check in his hands.
"Fake?" Tartaglia gave him another friendly smile, his gaze settling on the man.
"Do you think I have any reason to deceive you?"
And thus, a rumor soon spread across Teyvat—whenever a package delivered by Komaniya Express' top courier, Kirara, was delayed or damaged, the recipient would receive 100 tis the package's value in compensation...
