Although the book doesn't explicitly say it, if nothing unexpected happens, this title should refer to the Traveler's brother, and what Faruzan finds strange is precisely the meaning of this name.
Aralagha calls him "Nara Varuna" (varuna). This is very strange—others might not understand, but Faruzan knows that Varuna means "Water God."
Previously in the Chasm, the name of the Hydro Yaksha was mentioned as "Bonanus varna." At that time, Faruzan felt this name was very similar to "Varuna." A Hydro Yaksha fits perfectly.
The author of the book "Records of the Dharma Protector Immortal Yakshas" is actually a Sumeru scholar, so Faruzan was very interested and researched it a bit.
However, regarding the meaning of "varuna," it was a kind of "unknown knowledge" that Lucian told her—saying it's an omniscient god who was eventually demoted to simply the God of Water.
But why use "Water God" to refer to the Traveler's brother? Faruzan couldn't figure it out.
After thinking for a long time, Faruzan remembered some obscure knowledge Lucian mentioned during casual chats—Varuna seems to have another alias: Demon.
Could it be because the Traveler's brother became the Prince of the Abyss Order, that's why he's called that?
Faruzan was puzzled; her scholarly curiosity made her itch.
But Faruzan is different from Nilou or Collei—she's a scholar. When encountering the unknown, she has no intention of asking Lucian to clarify.
At this moment, she only feels incredibly "refreshed"—finally found a topic she wants to conquer!
Faruzan puts down the prophecy book and dives back into the "ocean of knowledge." Wait for it, Lucian—I'll definitely crack your linguistics!
Actually burying foreshadowing with "language" in the book—hmph, this is you provoking me, right!
I must figure all this out before you write the prophecy for the next part!
Unfortunately, it's very difficult for Faruzan to figure all this out, because these names and various linguistic information come from another world.
If she knew Lucian's knowledge, then upon seeing the name Arama, she would realize something's off.
Because in Lucian's knowledge, in legend, the inhabitants of the "Monkey Kingdom (Vanarana)" helped the hero Rama defeat the demon king. Knowing this, one could almost guess the subsequent story.
The entire Aranyaka is like a fairy-tale version of the "Ramayana," so here it really feels like a fairy tale world.
The difference is that this "fairy tale story" is actually more touching.
Having said so much, one has to mention Mona's foresight—she directly pesters Lucian for knowledge. Although often fooled, she indeed learned a lot of information only from another world.
Setting aside these geniuses' performances, the first part of the Aranyaka ends with the Traveler obtaining the Aranyaka—clearly the story has just begun, yet it's already over.
In other words, Lucian gave Citlali one of her favorite cliffhangers.
Even if Citlali is so angry she's gritting her teeth, there's nothing she can do—the story is just gone.
Iron Tongue Tian: "If you want to know what happens next, please wait for the next episode!"
Woo hoo~! I made it through! I succeeded! Iron Tongue Tian lets out a long breath—finally endured it! Truly betting the name of "Iron Tongue"—good thing I didn't lose!
Hands spread: Can Liu Su do it?
Can only say people's joys and sorrows don't connect—Citlali is so angry from the story cutting off here she's gritting teeth and stomping feet.
Iron Tongue Tian is happy from the story cutting off here—almost wants to set up a memorial tablet for Lucian.
The story ending here can't be called perfect, but it is indeed a "first part" that leaves plenty of suspense.
It can be said to have maxed out anticipation for the "second part," so although readers complain, they're also full of expectation for the next part.
You ask if they curse? Curse! You ask if they buy? Buy! Curse and remember to buy.
Have to say Lucian has "trained" everyone well—now waiting has become habit. Just say this world is a huge SM scene.
If there's dissatisfaction, mainly Furina is a bit dissatisfied—perhaps everyone wonders why Furina is dissatisfied; it doesn't really relate to her.
Yes, not much relation to the story—her dissatisfaction comes from Neuvillette.
Furina really likes the Aranara in the story—thinks these creatures are super cute, even wants a body pillow—so she shared it with Neuvillette to see.
Unfortunately, Neuvillette as a super invincible Melusine fan didn't get the cuteness of Aranara, and instead promoted the wonders of Melusines.
For Lady Furina's "proselytizing," Neuvillette remained calm.
Furina pouts—clearly before when I shared stories with you, you had some reaction; this time so calm!
Not satisfied! Very not satisfied! Dear Lu has already told me your little secret—you can't hide from me; I want to see you cry right now!
Furina returns to her little room and starts messaging Lucian, demanding Lucian write some stories that can "hurt" Neuvillette.
Lucian is stunned—never seen someone make this kind of request. This request can be fulfilled, but when the time comes, who between you and Neuvillette gets more hurt—I can't say.
Said in advance—when the time comes don't blame me; this is what you requested.
Anyway, the Aranyaka story temporarily "ends" here—for readers, this is still a heartwarming story.
The only problem is Rana, but the text clearly writes out the treatment method, and with Arana there, the condition won't worsen.
This way, everyone's worry fades a lot—almost immersed in the Aranara's fairy tale world; then this story is indeed heartwarming.
It can be said to be like Sumeru's second act story—thrilling but safe; although worried a lot during the process, the outcome is good—Dunyarzad and Rana will be fine.
Yes, they will be fine—because the one in trouble is someone else. This has to continue with Sumeru's later stories.
Time pushes forward about ten days—in these days, everyone lived very plainly.
How to say—usually accustomed to being knifed by Shikikan's stories; after being knifed, complaining about Lucian together with others and sharing "suffering" has become part of life.
But this period's story so heartwarming—instead makes everyone not know what to discuss; days feel much plainer.
Shikikan you've changed—talent exhausted—can't see a very knifey future.
Now Teyvat people one by one like having Stockholm syndrome—starting to look forward to Lucian knifing them.
These days lived not plainly instead is Tartaglia—he really fought with Signora, not just one fight.
Although Harbingers aren't allowed private fights, secretly "sparring" is still okay.
For Tartaglia, as long as he can fight—that's refreshing!
Refreshed, and new book came too.
