"I think... you don't need to be so hopeless."
Seeing Astrea's pale face, Paimon tried to comfort her:
"If it's you, Rea, you might not get beaten up."
Astrea looked up at Paimon with teary eyes. "Just might not?"
"Uh... well..."
Paimon awkwardly looked away.
Lumine couldn't stand it anymore and spoke up. "I'll help you."
"Really? Big Sister?"
Astrea imdiately looked at Lumine with admiration.
Lumine put her hands on her hips and puffed out her chest. "Don't worry. I'm great at helping people."
With the dialogue over, Axue began controlling Astrea to hand out flyers.
Of course, during conversations, the perspective switched back to Lumine.
In the real world of Teyvat, Lumine genuinely helped hand out half of the flyers. In the ga, after interacting with five NPCs, the quest was completed.
Surprisingly, even though the flyers seed like they'd get her beaten up, the people of Liyue seed used to it.
So sighed and complained about Director Hu, others chuckled and shared amusing anecdotes about Hu Tao, and a few even looked at Lumine with pity, patting her shoulder and shaking their heads without saying a word... After completing this part of the quest, players couldn't help but grow curious about Hu Tao, the Director of Wangsheng Funeral Parlor.
"I love Hu Tao so much! When is she going to be playable?"
She was just too interesting. Even though this was Themis' Story Quest and Themis hadn't even appeared yet, Brother Da and many players couldn't help but feel intrigued and fond of Hu Tao.
"Don't worry, such a ticulously designed character will definitely be released."
"Not to ntion they even gave a close-up of her Vision earlier."
"I just wonder when she'll actually be released."
Brother Da chatted with his viewers while continuing to push through the story.
After handing out the flyers, the quest instructed players to adjust the in-ga ti to between 5:00 PM and 6:00 PM, then head to the eting spot to have dinner with Astrea.
However, upon arriving at the location and triggering the next cutscene, Astrea was nowhere to be seen.
"Rea hasn't finished handing out the flyers yet? Let's go look for her."
Lumine nodded in response to Paimon's suggestion.
Paimon then added, "Let's check near the Adventurers' Guild. There are a lot of people there, and Rea ntioned she'd be handing out flyers there."
"Huh?"
Brother Da switched to Ganyu and headed to the street near the Adventurers' Guild. He couldn't help but feel puzzled.
"Is that Themis?"
Yes, standing on the street wasn't Astrea's model—it was Themis'.
Though their faces were identical, their outfits were completely different.
Of course, Themis didn't have the white wings she had during her initial appearance. Instead, she held a stack of flyers in her hands.
Approaching her triggered another cutscene.
Themis held a small stack of flyers in her left hand and one in her right, handing them out to passersby.
"Take it."
Her voice was cold.
"Uh..."
The man she stopped instinctively raised his hands in fear, nervously took the flyer, and then bolted.
Lumine and Paimon walked over.
"Rea, are you handing out flyers? Why does it feel like you're collecting debts? And did you change clothes just for this?"
Hearing Paimon's question, Themis glanced at them, said nothing, and turned back to continue handing out flyers.
"Take it."
Lumine and Paimon exchanged confused looks.
Paimon whispered, "Does Rea seem... off?"
"Yeah, she didn't call Big Sister."
There was only one dialogue option, so Brother Da clicked it.
Paimon: "That's not the point! The point is, Rea seems like a completely different person right now!"
At this mont, Themis finally spoke to them in a cold tone. "I'm not my sister. I'm Themis."
"Themis?"
Lumine looked at her in surprise, while Paimon blurted out:
"Are you and Rea twins? Rea never ntioned having a sister!"
"My sister doesn't know I exist."
"Huh? Why? How can a sister not know about her own sister?"
Faced with this question, Themis seed unwilling to elaborate and continued handing out flyers.
"Do you think Rea's playing a joke on us?"
"Rea isn't the type to joke like this."
"True, but what's going on? How could Rea not know she has a sister? And where is Rea now?"
As Paimon asked this, an animated cutscene suddenly played.
After handing out the last flyer, the white-haired girl walked off on her own. Lumine and Paimon exchanged glances and quickly followed.
Soon, they arrived at a deserted street. The girl's back suddenly sprouted three pairs of pure white wings.
The wings folded, enveloping her body in light.
In the next mont, the wings opened and retracted, disappearing.
When the light faded, the girl's outfit had changed back to the sa one Astrea wore.
The girl blinked her eyes open, looking around in confusion before spotting Lumine. "Huh? Big Sister? When did you get here? Oh, did you finish handing out the flyers? That's amazing!"
As she spoke, she suddenly noticed sothing was off and looked down at her hands. "Huh? Did I finish handing out my flyers too? When did that happen?"
"This..."
Seeing this scene, Lumine and Paimon exchanged bewildered looks, equally confused.
