Genshin Impact Reacts: Devils Never Cry

Prologue, Act III - Song of The Dragon And Freedom (Part 1)

Kiran's first instinct the moment the screen turned off was to look at Aether, who was visibily and mentally devastated with the ending of the previous viewing. Hesitantly, Kiran placed his hand on Aether's shoulder.

"Kid... You okay?"

Blinking his eyes, Aether looked up at Kiran and said with a firm voice," I'm fine..."

Kiran did not buy it at the slightest bit and had a deadpan look on his face and blankly stated," Kid, you're a terrible liar, you know that?"

Aether mentally facepalmed. He clearly had forgotten how much of a walking lie detector Kiran was. He sighed to himself as he opened his mouth, ready to express his thoughts before Kiran raised his palm.

"Kid - I know you have a lot to think about right now, and I get that. So I'll give you the time to gather yourself and when you're ready, come and see me if you feel like it."

Blinking his eyes, Aether just slowly nodded, grateful that Kiran was allowing him to give him some peace of mind. With that out of the way, Jean cleared her throat to gather their attention.

"So, it seems that the Abyss Mage is now out of the way, all that's left is to save Dvalin."Jean firmly stated, crossing her arms. Diluc also does the same and gave her a side-eye.

"That's one less loose end. Archons knows what could have happened if you didn't take the shot."Diluc said, looking at Kiran with a hint of respect for his action onscreen," If you ask me, it would have led to more destruction, should the Abyss Mage have deceived Dvalin further."

Kiran said and placed his hands on his chest armor," And I'm glad I did that."

"So... What do we do now?"Paimon asked, still unsure of the situation before them. Yūrei placed his hands on his hip and gave Paimon the nasty side eye.

"The mission stays the same, Flying Tuna - we save Dvalin at any and all costs."

"STOP CALLING PAIMON 'FLYING TUNA'!" Paimon screamed angrily, stomping her foot in the anger, furious at the nickname that the ex-Harbinger has given her, as he just chuckled - amused at Paimon's little temper tantrum.

"All right, cut it out, the two of you."Kiran said, immediately stepping in to defuse the situation - it was like dealing with two children who likes to pick on each other half the fucking time.

Meanwhile, Icarus was on the projection booth, watching the whole argument that was going down with an amused face. However, a reminder seemed to pop into his head as he thought of one thing in particular,

"I think it's time we expand the cast."

--Yūrei--
Formerly known as the Balladeer. The Sixth of the Eleven Fatui Harbingers. He has left the Fatui in order to find his own path.

As soon as everyone returned to their seats for the next viewing, Icarus tapped onto the microphone, which sent a feedback through the receiving end of the speakers. Everyone's attention was immediately drawn to their host, Icarus cleared his throat and began to speak.

"All right, before we begin the next viewing - I'd like to bring a few guests who'd be joining us for the viewing."

Now everyone's attention was piqued upon the mention of new guests as everyone began to assume who could be the new people joining them. And without warning, a bright light engulfed the theater as everyone raised their arms to block the blinding light, however, someone didn't do this and got blinded by the lights.

"MY EYES!!"

After a few seconds, the light slowly died down - revealing the new set of guests joining the theater.
