Chapter 44 - Revelation

"Alright, alright, I'll listen to you."

Facing Jean's confident assurance, Kai sighed helplessly, knowing that in this matter, he clearly couldn't persuade his wife.

"Thank you, Kai."

"Since that's the case, without further ado, let's set off quickly."

"Let's put an end to Dvalin's matter as soon as possible."

Stormterror was an unpredictable disaster for all of Mondstadt.

Although due to Anemo Archon Barbatos's covert intervention,

This temporarily removed the threat, but the root cause of the trouble had not yet been resolved.

Under these circumstances... it could be said that as long as the trouble persisted, the diplomatic pressure from the Fatui would not lessen.

As the Acting Grand Master of the Knights of Favonius,

Jean also had to consider this issue.

"Understood."

"Then we'll set off first. Jean, you can gather the Knights of Favonius here and then leave."

"Also, be extra careful, woman."

Thinking of the disheveled scene from last night,

Kai gave a disgruntled glance: "Don't underestimate the Fatui; those guys are very good at doing all sorts of insidious things."

"Especially you, as the Grand Master of the Knights of Favonius, you will definitely be their main target."

"Understood, Kai."

Jean nodded seriously.

Facing Kai's lecture, she showed no intention of refuting him.

"You also need to be careful."

"And then..."

She couldn't help but look up.

Jean's cheeks flushed slightly, and she quickly turned her face away.

She whispered: "When you come back tonight, I want to eat the dishes Kai cooks."

"No problem, leave that to me."

Kai's eyes lit up when he heard this.

He instantly felt full of energy.

He was very good at cooking.

Since his wife wanted to taste the dishes he personally cooked,

No matter what, he would never refuse!

"Well then..."

Waving his hand,

Kai glanced regretfully at the third wheels present.

He turned and left the office, shouting as he waved.

"Let's go, Traveler."

Led by Kai, the group quickly left Mondstadt.

"Hehe~ With Kai, Lumine and I feel much more at ease."

On the bridge outside Mondstadt... little Paimon scratched her head and chuckled, floating in the air.

Looking at Kai beside her, she couldn't help but speak.

Her words were full of relief.

As for Lumine, though she didn't speak,

From her expression, it was clear she felt the same way.

After all, they had fully witnessed Kai's combat power.

Not only when they first met,

They saw him single-handedly at Starfell Lake, using strange techniques.

He wiped out hundreds of Hilichurl in one go.

Especially yesterday, in such a strong crisis,

He directly cleared out all the Fatui in the stronghold.

Under these circumstances... if there was anyone in Mondstadt they would feel safe with when embarking on a mission,

Then following Kai was obviously the best choice.

"It's just a search mission."

"Theoretically, there shouldn't be any danger, so there's nothing to worry about."

Kai answered casually.

He clearly couldn't resonate with the sense of security little Paimon felt.

After all, whether it was Hilichurl or the Fatui,

To Kai, they posed no threat at all.

Perhaps those Harbingers were a little interesting,

But they were just slightly larger ants.

Objects that could be easily dealt with if he was serious.

If there was anyone in this world who could make Kai truly fight with all his strength,

It would probably only be those so-called... Gods, right?

Of course, they would have to be like Rex Lapis or the Cryo Archon.

As for Barbatos's level... "Speaking of which, I've made my wife do so much work."

"If I don't do something afterwards, like distribute some divine power, it doesn't seem right, does it?"

The Gods of Teyvat can share their power with others.

Although Barbatos's strength was indeed a bit pathetic,

No matter how pathetic, he was still a God.

Giving some power to Jean as assistance,

No matter what, it could be considered a boost.

"Then it's decided. After things in Mondstadt are over, I'll ask Barbatos for some power as compensation. If he doesn't give it..."

Thinking of this, Kai couldn't help but smile sinisterly.

Then he would... beat him until he did!

"Eh, what's wrong, Kai?"

Seeing Kai inexplicably start laughing out of nowhere,

Little Paimon, who had been somewhat relaxed, couldn't help but look puzzled.

She clearly didn't know what had happened.

Hearing her question, Kai finally came back to his senses.

Looking at the nearby Teleport Waypoint,

He coughed lightly twice and answered casually.

"Nothing. Anyway, let's teleport to Starfell Lake first."

"Then we'll go to the Temple of the Thousand Winds."

"Teleport???"

If little Paimon was only slightly nervous before due to Kai's laughter,

Then upon hearing these two words, she was almost instantly scared into flying into the air.

Her face was filled with panic.

"Ka-Ka-Ka... Kai, what are you saying?"

"Teleportation."

"I haven't activated the Teleport Waypoint at the Temple of the Thousand Winds, so I can't go directly. I can only go to Starfell Lake first."

"What's wrong?"

Kai looked at her, a bit puzzled, not understanding the situation.

In fact, it was probably as he had guessed earlier.

The Statues of The Seven and Teleport Waypoints originally scattered throughout Mondstadt were all unusable.

But with the arrival of the protagonists... as if under some mysterious power, these ancient relics, which had been dormant, all restored their original abilities.

Under these circumstances, Kai, who had previously tried to resonate with the Statue of The Seven in the Starfell Lake area,

Almost effortlessly understood how to use these structures.

It was precisely because of this that he was able to instantly transfer from Springvale to Starfell Lake last night.

Otherwise, even if Kai ran at full speed,

He wouldn't have been able to support Jean so quickly.

Of course... using these wasn't without a price.

"No, I'm not talking about that."

Hearing Kai even mention activating Teleport Waypoints,

Paimon was completely dumbfounded, her face full of strangeness.

"I... I mean,"

"Kai, how do you know the original purpose of these Teleport Waypoints and Statues of The Seven?"

"And you also know that you need to activate them in advance to use them..."
