Chapter 97 - When the Deaconess Arrives

The other plan... What was it again? I have a slight impression.

But I've forgotten the specifics.

Hearing Barbatos's tone, which was full of lack of confidence.

Master Kai always felt a sense of déjà vu.

It seemed that before coming to this world, when watching related plotlines.

Such a scene did indeed appear.

But the specific details, he really couldn't remember clearly.

Master Kai himself didn't know how many years he had traveled through endless planes.

How many worlds had he experienced, and countless stories?

Asking him to recall things he saw many years ago in their original form.

Honestly, that was indeed a bit difficult.

"In any case, let's go to the church first."

He nodded. Although he couldn't recall what it was.

But no matter what, the Holy Lyre der Himmel still had to be returned.

Therefore, going to the church was a must.

The Knights of Favonius Headquarters was not far from the church.

Soon, under Master Kai's lead.

The group directly entered the church.

Although it was afternoon at this time.

However, there were not many residents who came to the church for worship.

As a result, only a few nuns were on duty in the large church.

"Before setting off, I already sent someone to notify Barbara."

"I think she should be here in a while."

Walking into the church, she looked around.

Jean spoke softly.

"You seem a little nervous?"

He held his wife's cold little hand.

Seeing that Jean seemed a bit unsure at this moment.

Master Kai couldn't help but show a comforting smile.

"Not..."

"It can't be considered nervous."

Jean replied, although at the Knights of Favonius Headquarters.

Master Kai did say that he could easily deal with Barbara.

And after hearing it, her heart indeed felt much lighter.

But the problem was... even though she was relaxed, when things actually happened before her eyes.

No matter how hard she tried to calm down, she simply couldn't do it.

After all, no matter what, Barbara was her sister.

She had just stood her up not long ago.

And now the Holy Lyre der Himmel was accidentally damaged.

This would obviously cause a great burden on Barbara's work.

In such a situation... wanting to face her sister calmly.

At least for Jean, it was not an easy task.

"Your voice has changed, and you're still trying to be strong."

Master Kai showed a helpless smile.

He raised his hand and pulled her close, then quietly spoke.

"Hey~"

"If you don't know how to face Barbara later, I'll take full responsibility for communication."

"Anyway, we're not the ones who damaged the Holy Lyre der Himmel... just tell the truth and let this green guy take the blame, couldn't we?"

"Eh..."

Although he didn't hear what they were saying.

But Barbatos heard the phrase "this green guy" very clearly.

He immediately turned his head to look.

"Master Kai just mentioned me again?"

"Mmm, I'm chatting with Jean."

Master Kai nodded in response.

"I was saying how beautiful this church is built, to be so beloved."

"I think that god must be a very hardworking god, right?"

"He must have done many things to receive such treatment."

"Ah, this..."

Barbatos blinked.

After thinking for a moment, he decisively turned around.

Pretending not to have heard anything.

Hmm, confirmed.

Master Kai was just simply scolding me.

Not chatting about anything.

"Kai..."

She quietly tugged at Master Kai's sleeve.

Seeing Barbatos, who was the God of Anemo, almost completely restrained by her husband.

Jean couldn't help but show a rather helpless smile.

He whispered, "No matter what, Barbatos is the founder of Mondstadt."

"If you bully him too much... what if the God of Anemo's power recovers and he comes looking for trouble?"

"No need to worry about that."

He waved his hand, listening to Acting Grand Master Jean's concerns.

Kai seemed quite unconcerned.

"Even in his prime, that guy wouldn't be my match."

"It's hard to say about the other gods... but the God of Anemo is definitely not a problem."

Having been on Teyvat for so long, Kai hadn't met the gods living in other nations.

Therefore, he couldn't judge their true combat strength.

But if, according to the legends, the God of Anemo, Barbatos, only had the combat strength of Stormterror Dvalin's level...

Then, for such a God of Anemo... Kai could confidently say that, without the constraints of world order, he could take on ten of them in one go, without even breaking a sweat.

If he risked the entire world being overturned... perhaps multiplying that number by ten... he could still repeat the above operation?

"Is Kai that strong?"

Acting Grand Master Jean said with a smile, clearly thinking Kai was just joking to put her at ease.

"Probably..."

It had been a long time since he had truly unleashed his full power.

In fact, the old Kai loved to break through the limitations of world laws.

When facing lower-level worlds, he would directly resolve the restriction issues, allowing his body to burst forth with its full strength, thus, forming a level that surpassed the ceiling, casually overturning worlds.

In his youth, Kai quite enjoyed those days.

But later... the repetitive cycle of breaking, showing off, breaking, showing off... truly made Kai feel weary.

Coupled with the passage of time, the level of the worlds he traveled to became higher and higher, and breaking through them became even more troublesome.

Under these circumstances, Kai, who considered himself mature, simply gave up on wasting energy bothering the planar laws.

Strength... why be so strong?

Although it felt good after breaking through, the price was being targeted by the entire plane.

Either you destroy the plane, or you show off for a while and then quickly leave.

Otherwise, the entire plane would continuously bring endless trouble.

That feeling of being sought out by the chains of order was quite unpleasant.

Anyway, his current strength was enough to deal with all threats on Teyvat.

Even when facing those gods, there was a way to resolve it.

"Click~"

Just as Kai was sighing, not far away, accompanied by the heavy sound of a door opening,

Barbara's figure finally appeared before them.

It was as if she contained some incredible magic.

As Barbara appeared in the church, a gentle aura immediately emanated from her,

making everyone's mood seem to improve significantly all at once.

"She's here."

Jean squeezed her hands and nervously took a step back.

She still felt a lot of pressure!
