The Adepti — mighty illuminated beasts that have existed long before humankind. Ancient beings who are powerful enough to manipulate elements without a Vision. Magical creatures whose lifespan stretches over several millennia. Although, there are many cases where certain Adepti are blessed with immortality.

"Hmm. The Adepti, huh? Beings who can achieve Godhood and be blessed with immortality." A voice said, "What are your thoughts?"
"..."
"Hey. Don't be like that. C'mon, just because you're unconscious doesn't mean that your spiritual form isn't."
"..."
"Tch. If only the one who sleeps could speak."
"..."
"Well. Perhaps this little halfling could be of some use to our creators."

"Right? *****?"

"...It's been an hour and 12 minutes. How long will this man continue?" Rera sighed in her head, communicating with Loki.
"Beats me. I would give you earplugs, but I think he'd be offended."
"I think he's reaching the conclusion now."
"Welp, I guess I could remove these now."
Hovering his hands over his ears, Loki dispelled the shadow earplugs that muffled his hearing.
"And with that, that should be the gist of it. Any questions?" Zhongli asked.
"Questions huh? I have had a shit ton of them ever since coming here but NOW you wanna ask?! How considerate of you!"
Holding in the urge to yell, Rera forced herself to remain calm.
"...Have you...come across any Adepti races that have similar features to me?" Rera replied, tilting her head slightly.
"..."
Thinking hard, Zhongli thought about her question. Throughout his entire life, he has yet to come across an Adeptus such as Rera. There are creatures with similar features, but this one is quite foreign to him. Though it may be because she is an artificially created Adeptus.
"I have not seen nor heard about any Adepti races with your features. You're an artificial Adeptus, so you are completely new to this world." Zhongli explained, "You are undoubtedly an Adeptus with your appearance. But that has yet to be determined."
"Determined?" She repeated.
"Yes." Zhongli nodded, "You have some Adeptal energy within you, but we have yet to confirm if it's real or not. And if it is..."
"..."
"If it is?"
"..."
"Then that means those people have killed one of the Adepti and infused their Adeptal energy within you."
!!!
"Huh?! Really? Is that true?! How the hell did some stupid humans manage to defeat an Adeptus?! Wait...but which one did they kill?"
