Across Teyvat, countless gazes looked toward the space beyond the stars.
"Oh? Surtalogi?"
A woman wearing a white headscarf with gold and blue-white eyes said with interest.
Soon, a rift filled with eyes appeared beside her, and a woman with platinum-blonde hair and a cold, lazy expression stepped out.
"Is he returning at this time to declare war on the Four Shades of the Heavenly Principles?"
Those dark gold eyes looked calmly at the sky.
"Not quite, Ronova. He was likely drawn here by the two auras that appeared earlier."
"Oh? Why do you say that, Lady Rhinedottir?"
"For the sake of his own perfection, he is only interested in the strong."
"..."
Ronova raised an eyebrow, a flash of dissatisfaction crossing her calm eyes.
Wasn't this implying that the Four Shades of the Heavenly Principles were weaklings?
"Oh my? Teyvat's time has suddenly become chaotic. What on earth is going on... It's so hard to guess."
A figure with a golden ring ornament on her head suddenly appeared beside them, her lazy golden eyes looking elsewhere.
Her gaze was fixed on Kiana, who had suddenly descended upon Teyvat two days ago.
Since her appearance, all the rules of Teyvat seemed to be under her control.
Even her time clearance had been heavily restricted.
This feeling... it was as if that person was the embodiment of the rules themselves?
Moreover, like that God of Serene Flames, she possessed an appearance similar to the Heavenly Principles~
...Njordkale, a woman wearing a large golden hollowed-out ring-shaped headpiece with pointed ears, looked at the sky with surprise.
"Isn't that the brat from Khaenri'ah?"
'He's coming for the outsiders. I told you those outsiders were too high-profile. In the end, we're the ones in trouble. Sigh... honestly, blah blah blah...'
A woman with long golden hair and clear light blue eyes, her legs wrapped in white silk pressed together, looked resentful.
"Alright, alright, Nicole, stop talking incessantly in my head!"
The woman beside Nicole covered her elf-like ears and said with a pained expression.
'Fine, fine. I only said a few words and Alice is already annoyed with me. Sigh.'
Nicole pouted, her cheeks puffing out slightly, and then continued to gaze at the sky.
After rubbing her head, Alice also continued to watch the sky.
They weren't in a hurry because someone had already gone to deal with the trouble.
At this moment, not just them, but the gazes of the strong across Teyvat were all gathered on the same place... "This is Teyvat. Those two exceptionally powerful auras actually came from here?"
Within a pitch-black star field that swallowed everything, Surtalogi looked at the single star in the darkness with slight surprise.
Beings of that level shouldn't appear in this place on the brink of destruction at this stage.
Suddenly, a space gate appeared before him, making him stop his thoughts and look over with interest.
"Interesting spatial technology,"
Surtalogi praised slightly.
Could it be that the Shade of Space from Teyvat came personally?
If that were the case, it would be quite disappointing; he didn't think much of that Shade of Space now.
After all, the other party was far from the two deep, abyss-like auras he had sensed earlier.
Then, in his sight, two pairs of fair, straight legs stepped out.
It was Kiana and Bianca.
"If Miss Acheron saw this look, he'd probably be hacked to pieces..."
Seeing the black hole in Surtalogi's chest, Kiana looked up and pondered.
Surtalogi didn't understand what Kiana was saying and ignored her, instead locking his gaze on Bianca.
After all, the aura on this one was the real deal; he hadn't felt that kind of pressure in a long time.
Although not as strong as the two previous auras, it... was enough!
This trip wasn't a waste.
"Let's treat this as an appetizer!"
Surtalogi raised the pitch-black greatsword in his hand and pointed it at Bianca, his tone carrying incomparable confidence.
In this state, he completely disregarded Bianca.
Bianca wasn't annoyed by this. Instead, she nodded to Kiana and took out the Black Abyss White Flower, which worked best with her herrscher core.
This might be the most satisfying battle she'd had since the last Swarm Disaster.
"Ha!!!"
Bianca gave a light shout, her golden aura surging again, mixed with a bit of the clearance of Creation and Decay, as well as a trace of Divine Breath.
Surtalogi's body paused slightly, and then he set aside his contempt.
"Hahaha! The fear of a powerhouse like you is worthy of becoming nourishment for my evolution!"
The eyes on Surtalogi's visor glowed with intense purple light. He then converted the Power of the Void into various elemental forces to coat his blade and slashed at Bianca.
A blade light capable of splitting a planet swept forward... Bianca's eyes narrowed, her wrist turned, and she coated the tip of her spear with Divine Breath and the clearance of Decay. Following her intuition, she thrust at the weakest part of the blade light, firing a beam of black light.
Crack—Boom—!
When the blade light and the black light collided, the blade light shattered instantly. The explosion from the two attacks sent both of them recoiling to extreme distances.
However, the shell of Teyvat was covered by a layer of solid Crystal Wall, and this powerful energy impact didn't shake it in the slightest.
"Did Qlipoth follow us just to find an Emanator and add a wall...?"
Watching the Crystal Wall still exerting force, Kiana's mouth twitched.
This Shitou block is way too idle.
No wonder it takes so long for one hammer strike; the truth is, he's just slacking off.
「Hiahiahiahia! Aha makes a grand entrance~!」
A familiar burst of laughter appeared, and Aha's divine form flashed by, followed by a red mask of joy appearing beside Kiana.
"Qlipoth has already gone back, why are you still here, Aha?"
「Aha wants to find some fun here! But it seems there isn't much fun!」
Aha's tone was cheerful at first, then suddenly became somewhat disappointed.
"Fun? Aha, why don't you go look for members of the Hexenzirkel? Every one of them is a talent; there might be some who fit 'Elation'."
Kiana looked at Teyvat, her eyes meeting two gazes within, and then spoke with a sly look.
In her memories, the members of the Hexenzirkel all seemed quite capable of making a scene.
Witch N appeared holy and cold on the surface, but was actually a funny chatterbox inside.
Witch B would fool her disciple into tearing open the False Sky in the future, nearly getting the disciple killed.
Witch A, Alice, was also a joker with a theatrical personality and a love for pranks, but was also a big shot who maintained the borders of Teyvat.
Several of them here fit Elation quite well~
Aha was also somewhat moved and immediately wanted to check out this Teyvat, a place of outstanding people and spiritual land, to see what was going on.
On the other side, Surtalogi, having stopped himself and regained his balance, quickly looked at Aha beside Kiana.
Aha also glanced at him, then disappeared, leaving behind only one sentence.
「Another lunatic, boring, boring~」
"..."
Surtalogi was silent for a moment, then continued to look at Bianca.
He would finish off the opponent in front of him first.
