"Boom~"
The unparalleled impact transformed into an extremely scorching radiance.
Under the outpouring of vast energy, it fiercely struck Dvalin's body.
"Roar~"
A roaring dragon's cry suddenly sounded.
The dazzling white light almost completely enveloped Dvalin's massive body.
The wound, trickling black blood, finally could no longer hold up under such a degree of light purification.
The leaking black aura was continuously purified.
Finally, like shattering glass, it completely broke.
"Success."
Almost simultaneously, as the God of Anemo, Barbatos immediately felt an extremely drastic change suddenly occurs in Dvalin's body.
The crimson color filling his eyes had all receded.
In its place was a flowing cyan hue.
He also displayed extremely confused and pained eyes, and under the continuous energy impact, he seemed to lose all his strength and rapidly fell towards the center of the storm.
"This should be the end, right?"
In mid-air... Kai spread his Wind Glyder, gazing at Dvalin not far away.
The massive figure gradually falling into the center of the storm.
He sighed leisurely.
With the erosion of Abyssal power gone, although for a short time,
Dvalin's consciousness might still be a little confused, overall, this was no longer a major problem.
"Hey, bard..."
"Although Kai helped clear the poisonous blood, falling from such a high place..."
"Will Dvalin be, okay?"
Paimon floated in the air, watching Dvalin fall into the center of the storm.
Her tone was suddenly filled with worry.
Although dragons can indeed fly, they can't fly when unconscious, right?
You know, this is tens of thousands of feet high.
Who knows how far it is from the ground?
In this situation... even Dvalin probably couldn't withstand it.
"It's okay."
Lumine, beside her, was also worried.
Hearing Paimon's question, Barbatos showed a slightly relaxed smile.
"I can feel that right after falling into the center of the storm~."
"Dvalin has reawakened."
"Although he's indeed relatively weak because Kai just taught him a lesson..."
"Flying shouldn't be too much of a problem."
As his familiar, there was, of course, a certain connection between Barbatos and Dvalin.
While not enough to understand everything the other party had experienced through this, it was no problem to judge the other party's general state through this faint sensation.
"So, he's already awake."
Upon receiving this answer, Paimon couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
She seemed much more at ease.
Although when facing Dvalin at Starsnatch Cliff, little Paimon remained in a state of trepidation.
However, with the Abyssal corruption cleared, there was no doubt that Dvalin was probably considered an ally now, right?
As one of the Four Winds, guarding Mondstadt.
In this situation... worrying about him was only natural.
"So where did Dvalin go now?"
"After all, we helped clear the poisonous blood, and you, the bard, are here... Shouldn't he come to see you first?"
Paimon stood with her hands on her hips, staring at the storm's vortex.
As she said this, her face was full of pride, and she naturally embraced the identity of "one of the saviors of Dvalin."
"Hmm..."
"About that question."
To be honest, Barbatos himself was also wondering.
No matter what, he was also the God of Anemo.
Now that the Abyssal corruption was removed,
then logically, Dvalin should come to him first to make contact.
But the result... noticing the connection gradually weakening due to distance,
Barbatos felt very puzzled.
"I don't know where Dvalin went either."
"But I can confirm that he should have left Stormterrors Lair."
"Ah?"
Little Paimon showed a surprised face.
She clearly hadn't expected to hear such an answer.
"Bard, can't you be a little more like a god?"
"Are you that unreliable?"
"Ehe..."
Barbatos immediately showed a rather awkward smile.
"Perhaps he doesn't know how to face you for a while."
Just then, Kai had also put away his Wind Glyder.
He descended from mid-air.
Seeing Barbatos's slightly awkward expression, he casually helped explain.
"After all, when he became your familiar back then, Barbatos was tasked with guarding Mondstadt, but he didn't expect that now he not only failed to guard Mondstadt but also became a demonic dragon endangering Mondstadt."
"Even if it was due to Abyssal erosion, Dvalin probably doesn't know how to face it now, does he?"
Perhaps it wouldn't be a big deal when he was confused.
But now, Dvalin has reawakened.
Thinking of everything he had done during this period,
he would clearly be at a loss when facing the God of Anemo who ruled Mondstadt.
"Dvalin..."
His gaze became slightly solemn for a moment.
Barbatos sighed, clearly agreeing with Kai's statement.
"So where will Dvalin go now?"
It was as if Paimon had thought of something terrible.
A look of extreme horror appeared on her face.
She quickly added, "He wouldn't go directly to cause trouble for the Abyss Order, would he?"
Although the poisonous blood was due to the actions of the Dragon Dvalin back then, being confused and hostile towards Mondstadt was the result of the Abyss Order's instigation.
In this situation... now that he's clear-headed, seeking revenge on the Abyss Order is absolutely a matter of course.
"That possibility can't be ruled out..."
Kai nodded, not directly denying such a possibility.
Then, seeing that not only Paimon, but even Lumine's expression had changed significantly, he slowly added the rest of his statement.
"Of course, even if Dvalin wants to find trouble with the Abyss Order."
"He won't be able to do it in a short time, after all, those guys aren't that easy to find."
Kai wouldn't think that the Abyss Order, after instigating Dvalin, wouldn't have left some contingency plan to prevent their lair from being found if they failed.
Therefore, even if he wants revenge, he can't do it in a short period.
"So, after Dvalin leaves Stormterrors Lair."
"Where will he go?"
Diluc frowned, clearly understanding Kai, and from his expression, he probably already had the answer.
"While I'm not entirely certain, I do have a guess."
Indeed, regarding this question, Kai nodded and said very easily, "Anyway, let's go back to Mondstadt City first."
"We should have the answer by then."
