the ancient god... osial was subdued once again following a fierce battle and much sacrifice.

the sun shyly greeted liyue once again. those who participated in the great battle were now have a little talk in the harbor.

Paimon: is it... finally over?

she asked while looking at the adepti.

M.carver: the omnius aura of that monster indeed begun to fade...

M.shaper: hmm, the effects of the sigil of permission last but a short time

C.retainer: it will be sometime before the overlord of the vortex can make any waves again

that means... in the near future... there will be another calamity that'll once again devour liyue.

author: don't jinx it!

Ningguang: we are indebted to you for your assistance. *looks at the adepti* if the adepti hadn't happenend to be here, the future of liyue harbor would surely have been in great jeopardy

C.retainer: hah, save your flattery. we didn't just happen to be here. better drop your act, pretending all of this as just coincidence *frowns*

Ping: come on now. there's no need for such harsh words, cloud retainer *smile at her*

C.retainer: hmph! i have my own right and reason for this!

Ping: i've heard that when ningguang began learning to do business, she had already started setting aside part of her then-limited income in preparation for building jade chamber. it's testament to ningguang's entire life.

Ningguang: *chuckles* well, i was really hoping you would say that such sacrifice could at least be used as some leverage in our negotiations.

Ping: ...heh

Paimon: paimon really don't understand about this topic at all *shrughs*

Aether: well... better stay quiet

Ningguang: we all know very well why the adepti came here today... but please forgive us, we cannot yield to your wishes. *stern*

M.carver: ohh?

C.retainer: *stare at her*

Ningguang: 3,700 years... according to our records, the adepti signed contract with rex lapis to protect liyue 3,700 years ago

M.shaper: what's your point, then?

Ningguang: do not merely cast your protective gaze upon the land. instead, focus your sights on our city and each of the citizens that dwell within it.

a big frowns coming from the adepti, except xiao:)

it seems, mortal is questioning adepti's way of protecting liyue.

it might be a good thinking... since the contract between them and rex lapis has come to an end.

or ended up pretty bad... because the adeptus are literally the one who fights for rex lapis in order to maintain the peace within liyue.

M.carver: are you questioning our means of protecting liyue!?

the moon carver slightly raised his voice, finding ningguang's words to be the most absurd he ever heard in his entire life.

this cause ningguang to back up a little, as she thought she just say something bad.

but then...

a scythe pointed towards moon carver's neck. just a little bit of push and the head would disappear in an instant.
