People in Xumi: I am really not the Dragon King

Chapter 305: Xiao: Where does your information come from?
"——Um. Is the status of the Advent One or the Demon God enough?"

???

“Ah?! What is the Adventer?”
The status of a demon god is definitely enough, but how can we find such a being here?"

Hearing these unexpected words from a stranger,

Even in this critical situation, Mona was full of question marks.

——Although I seem to have divined something that absolutely cannot be divined,

But since nothing is actually seen, it does not require a force equal to the target to escape from the current situation.
How did the people in front of him manage to call themselves demon gods as soon as they opened their mouths? Is it so easy to find such legendary beings now?
Let’s not talk about the doubts in the mind of a certain genius astrologer.

After hearing this reply, Ying and Paimon looked at each other and simultaneously knocked on a shrunk "lizard" lying on Paimon's body.
"Gulu?"

Thinking it was time to eat, Fantuan opened his eyes and looked around expectantly, wanting to see what he was going to eat.
Because the situation was urgent, Paimon, who had been acting as a communicator, did not waste any time.

Instead, he pointed at the increasingly brighter star disk in front of him as quickly as possible, wanting the little guy to judge for himself whether he could help deal with it.

".Gulu!"

It didn't take long to understand the situation.
The rice ball nodded and floated directly from Paimon's shoulder.
With Mona's expression as if to say, "What on earth are you doing? What is this strange creature?"
The little guy swung his tail and crashed straight into the core of the divination ceremony in the air - the water mirror made of elemental power.

"——Huh? Don't touch it!

Other creatures coming over might make the situation worse.
It’s already difficult for me to stabilize this thing, so I’m not sure I can help you save this little guy.”

Although I refused, I was really unable to do so.

Mona could only watch in despair as this four-legged creature, which was about the size of a lizard but had some strange patterns, pounced towards her.

!!!

It's over. I don't know what will happen if the divination gets out of control and the lizard pounces on me.

Is it true that the greatest astrologer of the future is going to disappear here?
"."

"."

"Hiccup~"

Because of this unexpected situation, Mona subconsciously closed her eyes, waiting for the next explosion or other chain reaction.

But after the sudden silence, except for a burp in front of me,
Full of questions, she was also confused to find that the backlash of divination that had gathered a large amount of elemental power and was about to get out of control had disappeared!
She opened her eyes and before she could ask what happened and where this strangely patterned little lizard came from,
Mona was deeply shocked by the strange creature that appeared in front of her:
——The little lizard just now disappeared.
In the midst of the surprised and even somewhat excited expressions of the surrounding Liyue people, a powerful creature very similar to the legendary "Jiaolong" appeared.

Although it seems that it has not yet fully grown,

But whether it is the intricate patterns on the scales, the iconic golden linear pupils, or the oppressive force that makes people feel breathless just by looking at it, it is undoubtedly a symbol of a powerful race.

“.Is this the “immortal beast” in Liyue legend that can rival immortals?
——It can't be the legendary "Demon God" right?!
Where did you find this kind of existence? !”

Seeing that many Liyue people around him even began to look for tributes with shining eyes, they planned to have a "live visit to the immortals".

Mona, who knew in advance how crazy the Liyue people were about dragon-like creatures, didn't have time to ask questions.

Instead, he quickly left his seat, used the water element to roll up the people around him, and slipped directly to an area where they would not be disturbed for a short time.

"It should be safe here."

".I didn't expect that such a big problem would arise from just a random divination.
The old woman is right. We still need to have awe for fate."

Mona, who had almost turned herself into a divination sacrifice, let out a long sigh.
Although I was extremely confused about what had happened, I still felt a sense of relief that I had survived a disaster.

I calmed myself down a little bit,

Looking at the "beneficiaries" in front of me who have helped me a lot in different aspects,
Mona, who had never thought that there would be so many unexpected situations during her trip, also expressed her gratitude with a complicated expression:

"——Just now I almost thought I was finished. I really need to learn more."

"——Anyway, thank you very much to you two and your companions,
If it weren't for your help, even if I tried my best to control the scale of the accident just now, I guess it would still have a huge impact on the outside world.
In the worst case scenario, it might even cause some of the stars that were already off track to fall, and that would be the end of us.”

Thinking of the disastrous consequences,

For the first time, Mona regretted not asking for the specific situation and easily divined the abnormal star tracks that would have revealed something wrong if she thought about it carefully.

——The fate constellation is almost completely off track, but it has almost no impact on the subject's life. Isn't this a sign of "escaping destiny" as the old woman said?
According to my stingy master,

The one who has the ability to interfere with the fate system to this extent is at least an extremely powerful god, and even a higher being above the god is involved.
I can only say that fortunately I tried to stop in time after hearing the reminder, and I did not obtain any valid information. Otherwise, I am afraid that the "cost" of this divination would be far more than it is now.

".I'm very sorry. I didn't expect such a big trouble to happen. I should have been more resolute."

Realizing the criticality of the situation,
Cole lowered his head slightly and apologized to Mona with some regret for putting her in danger because of the divination.

"No, it's not your fault. I was too excited to run out and was careless. Normally, I would be able to notice something was wrong."

"——Besides, even if a being that powerful interferes with your fate, you may not be able to realize the impact of such a thing.
Since you have warned me, the responsibility of judging the risks lies with me as an astrologer."

Mona waved her hands, looking equally embarrassed at her "unprofessional" behavior just now:

——At first he said that he would become the best astrologer in the future, but in the end he made such a big mistake in just one divination.

If no one came to the rescue, who knows what the situation would have turned out to be like in the end.

"."

"Come to think of it, I didn't expect that the little lizard look just now was just a disguise.

Your companions are really amazing. They can break the backlash of fate and devour these water elements with just a touch.
Moreover, the enthusiasm of the Liyue people for this dragon-like creature far exceeded my imagination. I suddenly understood why disguise was necessary."

fluorescent:"."

I haven't fought with monsters in this period. Do you believe me when I say I didn't know it had grown so big?
A blonde girl who just feels that the food expenses have increased recently and she is under financial pressure,
Looking back at Paimon, who had declared himself the "boss" and said he would take care of the newcomers, he felt that this white-haired ball probably also hadn't noticed the change in the rice ball.

".Uh, Ying, why are you looking at me? I didn't feed Fantuan anything weird."

"——We both have been eating very regularly recently, breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea, dinner, midnight snack, and occasionally some snacks."

"."

Okay, crime solved.

After hearing Paimeng's "confession", Ying not only quickly figured out why the food storage in the Chen Ge Pot was always inexplicably empty,
I also figured out why Fantuan was always drowsy during this period.

——This is obviously too much to eat in one go, and it needs to be digested!

".Forget it, if the rice ball can grow, it means that the food is not wasted, at least it won't be like..."

Although Ying didn't finish her words,

But a certain white-haired ball with a stomach from another dimension still felt the gaze coming from above its head.

".Woo, Ying, you guy. Although Paimon hasn't changed, it must be because he didn't eat enough. He will grow again after he accumulates enough energy!"

"Gulu~"

The rice ball nodded. Having witnessed Paimon eating and felt inferior to him, it was obvious that it firmly believed that its predecessor would grow.

"."

After a lot of noise, the people present also briefly introduced themselves.

When Mona, with shining eyes, asked about the rice ball on Paimon's shoulder that had become much smaller,

Ying did not hide its identity, but simply introduced it:
".According to our understanding, the race of Fantuan should be the "Chilong" in Liyue legend.
Although we don’t know whether it is a demon god or not, this little guy is probably much stronger than ordinary sea beasts.”

"As for why it became our companion, that's a long story.
If I must say, taking care of it is probably a reward for a certain errand mission and a subsequent commission."

After a fight with the newborn, Ying, who was bruised and battered, also went to learn about the legend of Chilong in Liyue.

Finally, he looked at the "sea monster" that was defeated by humans several times in the records, and the "light-steed demon god" whose body turned into rivers and fields in the legend.
She and Paimon, who had witnessed the little guy's fighting power with their own eyes, did not think that Onigiri would be an ordinary magical beast, so they came up with the guess that it was a "young demon".

???

".Running errands? Chilong?"

Mona recalled the feeling of oppression she had felt from the little guy in front of her.

For a moment, I couldn't imagine how these two words were connected.

".Well, it does feel like a rather complicated situation. If it were in the past, I would definitely choose to occupy."

".Forget it, I don't think this is a good time for divination.

Let me first tell you what kind of reward you hope I will give you for helping me so much."

"."

Hearing Mona mention the word "remuneration",

Ying and Paimon, who had learned from standing nearby and watching the divination that this guy was almost out of money for food, looked at each other and were about to reject the other's kindness.

"——Ahem, don't make that expression!

Although I don’t have much Mora on me right now, I’m actually not that poor! ”

"——From the way you two behaved, it seemed like you had something to ask me before, right?

Even though I don’t dare to continue using the water mirror for divination now, I can still help you with ordinary small problems such as finding something.”

When Mona was fortune-telling for Cole, she noticed the special combination of people approaching.
When they knew they could tell fortunes, they were surprised. It was obvious that they wanted to know something.

Even though she didn't dare to do divination easily for fear of any accidents, she could still solve many problems with just her knowledge as an astrologer.

".Well, in this case,

It seems that when Ying and I came here, we really just wanted to ask for information. Even if we can't do divination, it won't have a big impact.
And if it’s the fortune-teller, there will probably be unexpected situations as well.”

Because I was distracted by Mona's popular science and the accident just now,

Paimon thought for a moment before remembering what she and Ying were planning to do when they first approached the trio.

I think since Mona is an astrologer, her observation ability might be much better than that of ordinary people.
Therefore, she turned around to look at Ying behind her and said tentatively:
"——The two of us actually want to find a way to meet the Rock King.
I heard that there are immortals in Wangshu Inn, so I came here to try my luck.
Let's see if we can get some clues from the legendary "Great Saint who conquers demons".
Then I just happened to see you guys, so I wanted to ask if you knew any information. ”

"."

"A fairy from the Liyue region? Unfortunately, I don't know that."

"."

???

"Huh?! Where did they go?!"

Mona was about to respond to Paimon and Ying's questions, but she squinted her eyes because she suddenly felt a breeze.
When I opened my eyes again, I found that the two people who had just asked questions had disappeared before my eyes.

"."

He looked back at Amber and Cole who were also confused and had no idea what was going on.
Mona sighed, feeling that the unknown situations she encountered today might be more than all the previous years combined.

At the same time, on the other side.

Xiao, who sensed the familiar aura of the demon god appearing below Wangshu Inn, chose to show up and pull Ying and Paimon away to talk.
Looking at the two "outsiders" in front of him whom he had already seen once from a distance, he also asked a question that made him a little confused:

"——There are indeed some people in Wangshu Inn who spread the legend of the immortal, but I have never revealed the name of "The Great Saint Conquering Demons" to outsiders.
Since you two have come all the way here to look for me, I wonder where this information came from?"
