Chapter 15 - Chapter 15

Jean, Lisa, and Amber.

After finishing their conversation, the three were about to head out to meet Kael and Lumine.

They walked out of the Knights of Favonius headquarters.

Standing on the high steps, they could look out and see the distant plaza.

Amber pointed at the two sitting on a bench and said, "Acting Grand Master, those two are Kael and Lumine."

Jean nodded.

"Let's go. We will go meet those two travelers together."

However, just as the three took their first step forward, a strong gust of wind hit them.

Mondstadt's originally clear sky instantly turned dark and gloomy.

It was like a sudden storm had arrived.

"Oh no."

"It is Stormterror."

Jean's face turned pale with shock.

As soon as she spoke, a massive shadow swept across the dark sky.

Soon, a gigantic dragon appeared above Mondstadt.

"It is Stormterror! Everyone, run!"

"Stormterror is here!"

"Quick, go get the Knights!"

In an instant, Mondstadt fell into chaos.

Stormterror used its massive body to cause continuous destruction across the city.

"So this is the Dragon disaster?"

Kael and Lumine did not panic and run right away. Instead, they quietly watched the massive figure in the sky.

"There really are dragons."

Kael said with slight surprise, "No, Lumine. You cannot stay here. It is not safe."

"We need to find a place to take shelter for now."

After Kael finished speaking, he grabbed Lumine's hand and ran toward the cathedral.

The buildings there should be very sturdy.

For the rest of the time, they could only wait for Mondstadt's knights to drive the dragon away.

Kael calculated in his mind.

Based on what Amber said earlier about the Dragon disaster, this probably was not Mondstadt's first time dealing with it. They must have a plan.

Besides, did Mondstadt not still have the Anemo Archon, Barbatos?

The disaster probably would not last long.

The only thing Kael could not figure out was why Mondstadt, with such a powerful god, would let the city suffer through multiple Dragon disasters.

However, while Kael was lost in thought, a massive roar echoed from the sky.

Stormterror's cry shook heaven and earth.

From the dark sky, several tornadoes descended, wreaking havoc across Mondstadt.

"Kael!"

While running, Lumine slipped. Her hand instantly slipped out of Kael's grasp.

The moment she let go, the tornado's powerful suction pulled Lumine straight up into the sky.

"Lumine!"

Not good.

Everyone in Teyvat gasped sharply.

After Amber led Kael and Lumine into Mondstadt, she went straight to the Knights of Favonius to report for duty.

During that time, she never explained Wind Gliders to them.

Without a Wind Glider, falling from a hundred meters up was easy to imagine.

Amber: "The past version of me must have thought they were both incredibly strong and could fly using wind. That is why I did not tell Miss Lumine about Wind Gliders."

Lumine: "I know. Someone as warm-hearted as Amber would not hold back."

Furina: "She is about to fall to her death, yet she is so calm. Should I say it is because this is just a scene from the past, or because she feels safe with Kael around?"

Lumine: "Cough, cough. Of course, I am just treating what is on the screen as a past event. That is why I am so calm."

Lynette: "But Mr. Kael did not show wind flight. He just used the wind to slowly fall from Starsnatch Cliff."

Venti: "That is true. That is completely different from flying with the wind."

Lumine: "Huh?"

Tartaglia: "What is wrong? Are you getting nervous now?"

Dvalin: "Hahaha, is the traveler Lumine going to fall to her death right after arriving in Mondstadt? Traveler dies, Reincarnator settles in Mondstadt, story over."

Yae Miko: "No, no, no. Normal novel plots do not work like that. Lumine's fall would just trigger Kael's rage. He would gain even greater power and completely destroy Dvalin."

Dvalin: "What kind of trope is that?"

Yae Miko: "The sacrifice the female lead to heaven trope."

Lumine: "Stop talking. You are making it sound really scary."

Paimon: "Do not be scared, Lumine. If Kael could jump from Starsnatch Cliff without a scratch, how could he possibly fail to catch you?"

The situation was turning bad.

Kael did not hesitate at all.

A fierce wind instantly rose beneath him.

Mondstadt, already battered by the storm, was hit by an even stronger gale.

Adjusting the wind's direction, Kael struggled to fly toward Lumine.

Watching this from afar, Jean was completely stunned.

"That man named Kael can actually wield such terrifying Anemo power?"

But, due to Stormterror's violent winds, Kael had to use all his strength to finally grab Lumine's hand.

With a mighty pull, he dragged her straight into his arms.

"Are you okay?"

Feeling Kael's concern, Lumine pressed tightly against his chest and shook her head vigorously.

Her shy expression covered all the fear and panic from before. It was as if, as long as she was in Kael's arms, she would not fear the sky falling.

Lumine: "....."

Aether: "Tch! Shameless Reincarnator. He must have brainwashed her. Otherwise, how could she always make that expression?"

Lisa: "I understand your feelings as a brother toward his sister's boyfriend, but Kael did save Lumine."

Aether: "Hmph! Watch your words. What boyfriend? Did Lumine admit it? If she did not, he is not a boyfriend."

Tartaglia: "Even though I have younger siblings too, as Lumine's brother, we do not actually know if she admitted it. Maybe they established their relationship while sleeping. After all, this system does not broadcast overly private things."

Aether: "Impossible, absolutely impossible. Stop talking nonsense here. Go on, Dvalin, bite Kael to death for me."

Paimon: "Hey! Lumine's brother, you cannot think like that. If Dvalin bites Kael to death, would he not bite Lumine to death too? Do you not care about Lumine at all?"

Aether: "I..."

Aether: "Despicable Reincarnator."

Dvalin: "Wait, do not drag me into your war. I do not want to be used as a pawn."

Lumine: "....."
