"A ball... what kind of ball?" Lilia was captivated by Bai Chen's words, her wide eyes seemingly sparkling.
The orphans at Cocolia's Orphanage have a very special attitude towards the orphanage. On the one hand, they still identify with Cocolia's mother and the orphanage they are in; on the other hand, they do not resist leaving the orphanage and often want to run outside the orphanage.
People like Rosalia and Lilia would never want to go home if something attracted them.
"A ball where you can summon heroes from history and fight against other summoners. The stage is the entire Sky City, and the participants are the Archbishop of Schicksal and more than one Herrscher. It's a very grand ball."
Bai Chen placed the fake book in front of Lilia, speaking in a tone like that of an old man selling lollipops.
Lilia was unsurprisingly hooked. For her, summoning heroes, attending the ball, and even the summoning circle drawn on the living room floor were all incredibly attractive.
In any case, Rosalia is currently trapped in the Herrscher's imaginary space, and she has to wait for the Herrscher to release her. Judging from the current situation, that may be a long time coming.
I might as well have some fun by myself first.
After eating and drinking her fill, Lilia took the fake book and stood on the summoning circle that Bai Chen had drawn earlier.
"Lilia wants to summon a hero who is different from everyone else, one who is not only powerful but also beautiful, of noble birth, and possesses remarkable talent!"
The girl with long blue hair held a fake book aloft and muttered incantations.
Bai Chen couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. If he had to meet all of Lilia's summoning requirements, the only person he could think of was Eden.
After all, a noble status is required, and among those great heroes, the majority are nameless and ordinary. Only a handful truly shine and are dazzlingly beautiful.
After a brief hesitation, the forged book emitted a strange sound.
This was a sound that had never occurred before; the pages of the book fluttered without wind, as if they were turning over in search of someone related to Lilia.
According to the rules of summoning, the summoned person should have some connection with the summoned person, and the Fusion Warrior is a good example of such a connection, so Eden is probably a sure thing...
Just as Bai Chen was thinking this, the fake book burst into flames, the pale flames gathering in the magic array and then spreading in all directions.
A dazzling purple lightning bolt followed immediately.
The figure that appeared was enveloped in bursts of lightning. It seemed that because he had just arrived in an unfamiliar world, the elemental concentration of which was no longer the same as before, he was unable to control his own power well, resulting in a large amount of elemental leakage.
"Hahaha, I am Fischl, the Princess of Judgment, the ruler of the Dark Annihilation. I have descended here at the call of destiny. I ask you, can you feel the bonds of fate and the turning of its gears!"
The girl with long blonde hair appeared in the magic circle. She wore a lace eye patch and a gorgeous light purple lace dress.
Surprisingly, a dark purple raven perched on her shoulder, looking around in a human-like manner.
As soon as she steadied herself, she let out a cute laugh, and then introduced herself to everyone in the room.
"Wow, it's the princess! Lilia drew the best possible lot."
Lilia believed the girl's words and let out a soft gasp.
"That's right, I am the mistress of the Netherworld, the princess of judgment and justice. I can already see the threads weaving the destiny of the universe, and the power I expended to come to this world has been fully restored..."
Princess Fischl stood with her hands on her hips in the magic circle, recounting her great deeds to Lilia.
Bai Chen also recovered from his surprise at this time.
"Hmm?" Kiana frowned. After all, she still possessed the power of the Herrscher of the Void. Although her perception of space was not as sharp as Bai Chen's, she could still detect such a huge anomaly.
"This... princess? She doesn't seem to be from this world."
Before knowing Fischl's true identity, Kiana could only refer to her as a princess.
"Be confident, Kiana. She's not just not from this world, she's not even a person in the World Bubble."
Bai Chen reached out and grabbed his hair hard. The disorientation of the space made him feel a little lost.
"While it's true that there are indeed characters randomly appearing, how can there be such characters? It's not even a complete worldview... No, wait a minute, if the Eye of God can still be used normally in this world, and elemental power is seen as a subdivided form of Honkai energy, then that means they're not completely unrelated..."
The power of the Herrscher of the Void swirled around Fischl, and Bai Chen began to try to decipher the chaotic data caused by the spatial distortion.
Before me stood the summoned girl, Fischl. She wasn't from the Honkai world at all, but from a place called Teyvat.
However, the fake book implicitly acknowledges that she has a connection to the Honkai world, even summoning her existence in spacetime. Items provided by the system wouldn't make such an error, and if the item is correct, it means that the Honkai world and the Teyvat continent do indeed have some kind of connection.
If it is merely a spatial or temporal gap, then with the power of the Herrscher of the Void, this gap is not entirely insurmountable.
"If this conjecture is true, it seems we really need to obtain the power to negate the world from outside the world..." Bai Chen muttered.
“Fischl, show me your God Eye,” he said, reaching out to the girl.
This surprised Fischl, who was speaking eloquently.
Chapter Forty: Speculations About the World
"You actually know about the Eye of God?"
Fischl was astonished.
As usual, after breakfast, she went to the church school at Mondstadt Cathedral. This church school was jointly run by the Knights of Mondstadt and the Church of Favonius, and all school-age teenagers and children in Mondstadt could attend for free.
Although many thirteen- or fourteen-year-olds are forced to go out to work with their parents to make a living, or simply sell flowers or fruit in the city, Fischl's family is relatively well-off, at least they don't need her to contribute to the household expenses.
So attending church school every day became her daily routine.
But on her way to school, a strange magic circle suddenly appeared in front of her, and a series of sounds came from the circle. The sounds rushed into Fischl's mind and told her that it was a summons from another world.
Although she always calls herself the princess of the Pure Land of Night, Fischl is actually just an ordinary girl in Mondstadt on the Teyvat continent. Now, the otherworldly adventure she has been dreaming of is right in front of her, so of course she jumps in without hesitation.
Perhaps because of her cross-world connection, she was endowed with more knowledge than others, and therefore, Fischl was very clear about what the world she was in was like.
There is Honkai energy and Herrschers in this world, but there is no Eye of God or the Seven Great Gods. How could a native of this world know the term Eye of God?
"The fake book that summoned you was created by me. Tell me, should I know about your world?" Bai Chen waved his hand, and a large ripple of space immediately appeared in front of Fischl. The space trembled like ripples on water, and what was originally an empty space suddenly developed a distorted sense of gravity.
“…Here you go.” Fischl was just a slightly chuunibyou (delusional) girl, not an idiot. On the continent of Teyvat, she had never seen such power that could even manipulate space. The strongest person she knew was only Jean, the Grand Master of the Mondstadt Knights, and all Jean could do was cleave a small rocky mountain in half with a single sword strike.
Fischl removed his Eye of God and handed it to Bai Chen. The Eye of God was a round gem, dark purple in color, with subtle flashes of electricity inside, proving that it was a lightning-type Eye of God.
"This thing...it feels a bit like Mei..."
Kiana leaned closer and touched the gem called the Eye of God, then said hesitantly.
"It does have a sense of Honkai, but it's not the same as Honkai. It's like a lower-level version of Honkai energy. Think of it as a very low-end version of the Herrscher core. Anyone with the right qualifications can use the Eye of God to mobilize some energy, which is elemental power."
"I don't know if it's really related to the Honkai world, or maybe it's just a simple reflection and information interference... It's like two dishes in the same refrigerator, they'll pick up a bit of each other's flavor if they're left out for too long."
Bai Chen carefully examined the Eye of God and finally confirmed that the distance between the Teyvat continent and the Honkai world was definitely not far. If he found the right method, he would also be able to open the door and go there.
Unfortunately, he can't spare the time right now, and this can only be considered an unexpected and sudden event, far less important than the Herrschers of the Honkai world.
"Let's make a note of it for now, and see if we can go there later if we have the chance."
Bai Chen kept this in mind and returned the Eye of God to Fischl.
"Little Amy from Mondstadt, right? You should know what's going to happen next, but you didn't bring any weapons?" Bai Chen asked casually.
Fischl should be an archer who uses a bow and arrow, but he didn't see Fischl carrying a bow and arrow. Could it be that she has some strange way of storing things?
"Little...little...don't use such a blasphemous title to address me, Your Majesty. I am the mistress of the Pure Land of the Night—oh dear!"
Unexpectedly, even the nickname her father often used to call her had been discovered by this hateful man in front of her. Fischl's face turned bright red, and she stared wide-eyed, stammering, but she was only halfway through her sentence when Bai Chen slapped her on the head with a chop.
"Quiet down, you chuunibyou, Oz, you explain."
The Oz Bai Chen mentioned was the raven that had always quietly perched on Fischl's shoulder. With the acquisition of the Eye of God, Fischl also gained this good companion named Oz. As a raven with sentience, he could not only unleash lightning attacks, but was also mature, steady, broad-minded, intelligent, and kind…
He is one of the most reliable fathers in the world.
"The young lady is on her way to school and is not carrying any weapons. However, even without weapons, she can condense lightning elements into a physical form and create a bow and arrow that is most suitable for her."
"Oh? It works in this world too?"
“Sir, actually, the elemental concentration in this world is much higher than on Teyvat. Abundant elemental energy surrounds you at all times, and your ability level in this world is several times higher than on Teyvat,” Oz replied.
This also indirectly confirms Bai Chen's conjecture. If there were no commonalities, how could something like the Eye of God, which clearly carries strong characteristics of a different world, still function normally after the world is changed, and even be enhanced?
"But speaking of which, little Amy, did you skip class and come here?" Bai Chen narrowed his eyes, his expression gradually becoming dangerous.
Fischl, unaware of the man's strange quirks, replied indifferently, "Hmph, what I see is the truth of the world and the flow of destiny. The mere schools of the mortal church merely preach some foolish theories; how can they compare to the reality of the world as I see it!"
“What the young lady means is that she has already learned everything taught in class and doesn’t need to attend classes anymore,” Oz translated.
Bai Chen narrowed his eyes completely and revealed a happy smile.
If he remembered correctly, the current level of science in Teyvat, setting aside special branches of science such as ley lines and elemental powers, is probably only at the level of Earth's medieval period or earlier.
In the Middle Ages, a person could reach the top level in a certain field after five or six years of education. For example, in mathematics, mastering multiplication was already a remarkable achievement.
No wonder Fischl is so confident. Although she's a bit of a chuunibyou (a person with delusions of grandeur), the girl must be quite smart.
But now...
"I originally thought that finding two classmates for Kiana would be enough, but now another one has come knocking. Kiana, from now on you'll be the class monitor for your group. Take Amy along and familiarize yourself with your current textbooks and teaching materials!"
Chapter 41 Mei Begins Her Journey
Fischl, unaware of the seriousness of the situation, was led back to her study room by Kiana.
When Fischl was summoned by the fake book, she was given the ability to recognize the language of the Honkai world, so listening, speaking, reading and writing were not problems for her, and she did not encounter any language difficulties.
So she recognizes every letter in the math book.
But that's where it ends.
"Kiana, Kiana, can you take me home?"
Kiana gave Fischl a tablet and opened the first lesson of basic math for her. After silently watching the two lessons, Fischl grabbed Kiana's sleeve, looking panicked.
While still in Mondstadt, Fischl became a member of the Adventurers' Guild at the age of 14. One reason was that she possessed the Eye of God, making her a formidable fighter in Mondstadt. Another reason, of course, was that her restless nature made it impossible for her to sit still in the classroom, which led her to associate with the adventurers in the Adventurers' Guild who were always out in the wild.
If you can go on wilderness exploration and fight Hilichurls, who would go to school!
Kiana looked at the panicked look on Fischl's face, and then, recalling the painful experience she had recently gone through, shook her head with empathy.
"I'm sorry, you'll have to stay here until this matter is over. But don't worry, there's a lot going on, so you probably won't have much time to read."
Reassured by Kiana, Fischl finally calmed down and, under Kiana's earnest guidance, began to struggle through high school math lessons on the computer.
Outside the room, Bai Chen pulled Rosalia, who had been staying in the imaginary space, out of the space.
Although Bai Chen had already dealt with many things, and fifteen ancient poems were more than enough for one person to memorize, Rosalia still hadn't made any progress and had even started sleeping on the table in the imaginary space.
When Bai Chen released her from the spatial dimension, there was still glistening drool at the corner of her mouth. It wasn't until Bai Chen took out a wheelchair from the spatial dimension and used ropes made of Honkai energy to firmly bind Rosalia to it that she finally came to her senses.
"Herrscher! Let me go! Otherwise I'll tell Cocolia's mother!" Rosalia shouted at Bai Chen, while also noticing her younger sister standing behind Bai Chen, silently watching her.
