I have finally finish my preparation of faking my death, which means I have to be mentally prepared of scaring the citizen.

With this Liyue Archon will be officially 'dead'.

I just hope I don't scare too much of the people of Liyue or cause a massive panic. As my copy is a living and breathing one with a copy of my essence and a piece of my original power, just to make sure in case for a massive search hunt.

Now all I have to do is wait-
