After receiving the rewards, Li Mo simply flicked his mind and saw all his information displayed.

...
The next moment, the system chimed again.
[Ding! System notification: You have collected three Wish Fragments.]
[Combine now?]
Without hesitation, Li Mo said, "Combine now."
The next moment, the three Wish Fragments vanished from his profile, replaced by a complete [Wish].
[Successfully synthesized!]
[Ding! Congratulations, host. You have obtained one complete Wish.]
...
After completing the draws from two accumulated lives, Li Mo had originally planned to postpone the fusion with his past incarnations until the evening. But according to the system, the sooner he fused, the more complete the power he would gain.
So he didn't hesitate. He called up the system and began the fusion.
[Ding! System analysis complete. The stories of the tenth life, "Bosacius the Yaksha," and the eleventh life, "Knight Rostam," have been fully told. New effect triggered—Fusion! You will now merge with your tenth and eleventh incarnation bodies.]
[And gain the powers of the tenth and eleventh lives.]
[Merge now?]
Bosacius, the yaksha of the tenth life, had been the strongest yaksha under Rex Lapis and one of the key combatants in winning the Archon War. Fusing with him would bring a significant power boost. Rostam, the knight of the eleventh life, though young, had been a Vision wielder and the creator of Favonius Bladework. Fusing with him would grant greater mastery of swordsmanship.
Without a second thought, Li Mo said, "Merge now."
[Ding! System notification: Fusion with the tenth life, Bosacius the yaksha, has begun.]
The moment the system spoke, a surge of familiar yaksha power began to merge with his current body. In an instant, all of Bosacius's power flowed into him. When it was complete, Li Mo could clearly feel his strength rise again, nearing that of the Seven Archons of Teyvat. With his current power, he could be called the Eighth Archon, able to roam freely across the continent without hindrance.
The next moment, the system chimed again.
[Ding! System notification: Fusion with the eleventh life, Knight Rostam, has begun.]
After the notification, Rostam's power also began to merge with Li Mo's body, further increasing his strength. Moreover, his understanding of swordsmanship deepened, and Favonius Bladework instantly reached its peak.
"If Miss Jean could see my Favonius Bladework now—"
"She would surely be amazed."
As the creator of Favonius Bladework, Li Mo's understanding and mastery now far surpassed even the current Acting Grand Master Jean. If she were present, she might sense the Favonius sword aura emanating from him.
...
After completing the draws and fusions, Li Mo noticed that the audience below was still chattering. Not only ordinary listeners, but also Barbatos, the three Electro sisters, and even Zhongli, who was playing with his bird, were all chatting and laughing.
In fact, Barbatos had already begun to fantasize about reuniting with his companion Venti. He said seriously, "When he returns, I'll definitely treat him to the fine wine from Dawn Winery and introduce him to Diluc. That young man is truly a good person. If you ever visit Mondstadt, you should get on good terms with him—at least you won't have to worry about wine."
While busking in Mondstadt, Barbatos hadn't always been successful—he often didn't earn enough Mora to buy wine. So whenever he had the chance, he'd go mooch off Diluc. If he happened to catch Diluc at the winery, he'd get a jug of fine wine. If not, he'd be chased away by those annoying gardeners.
Ei picked up a sweet snack, took a bite, and chewed as she said, "Hmph, I don't like drinking. It not only wastes time but also makes one lazy. Just like a certain Anemo Archon—a perfect example."
Barbatos: "Ah, a certain Anemo Archon? You're not talking about me, are you? Surely not?"
Ei was speechless. "Who else would it be?"
Barbatos: "Eh, why would you say that? That's so mean. I just drink a little—how could it make me lazy? Besides, if drinking makes you lazy, then eating sweets must make you fat."
Ei: "You're lying—"
Though she quickly retorted, Ei looked at the sweet snack in her hand and suddenly found it less appealing. She even glanced down at her own figure.
Had she really gained weight? Maybe a little.
If she kept eating like this, by the time her brother returned, all she'd have to show him were three chubby Electro Archons.
The next moment, all three sisters set down their sweets in unison and called out, "Innkeeper, no more sweets—"
"Bring three cups of green tea, the kind that helps with weight loss—"
"Put it on Mr. Tartaglia's tab. Oh, Mr. Tartaglia, you don't mind, do you?"
Tartaglia blinked. "I—of course not. It's my honor to pay for three gods."
Ei beamed. "That's wonderful."
Zhongli said with a knowing look, "I told you, Mr. Tartaglia's greatest joy is paying for others."
Tartaglia was speechless. "Whatever you say…"
