"Did it fail?"

[After an unknown amount of time, Su Bai slowly awoke.]

However, they had already arrived at the main gate of Sumeru City.

【"This is..."】

Su Bai looked around and saw several students waving at him.

【"teacher!"】

"Don't bother seeing us off, we're heading back."

Everyone's face seemed to carry a hint of fear and unease, forcing only a smile.

【"Rosalyn..."】

D'Artagnan: "Is...Is she a lady...?"

Lisa: "I remember Rosalind did go to Mount Meru to study, and she returned to Mondstadt after the Cataclysm of Kanria."

Wendy: "Rosalyn is actually Su Bai's student?"

Paimon: "This...this..."

Ayaka Kamisato: "How is this possible? Was the lady Mr. Su Bai killed his student?"

For some reason, Su Bai wanted to reach out and greet them.

But their gazes didn't seem to be directed at him.

"Have you made a decision?"

A familiar voice sounded from behind. Su Bai turned around and saw himself standing there, just as he had been during the Kanria cataclysm.

"After all, the Great Tree King has experience in combating forbidden knowledge; Sumeru might be safer."

"What are you saying, teacher?"

"The reason we're going back is precisely to use the knowledge you taught us to help our country overcome this disaster."

"We've learned a lot about alleviating taboos from you."

"Take care, let's meet again after this disaster is over."

"Oh, and please take good care of the Great Tree King, teacher."

【"....."】

"This is..." Su Bai's pupils dilated.

The scene before your eyes suddenly begins to change.

[Inazuma, Liyue, Winter Solstice, Nata...]

The ground was littered with mangled corpses.

He picked up his scattered belongings beside him; they were from the Sumeru Cult Academy...

【"Aaaaaah..."】

In an instant, a painful wail interrupted Su Bai's thoughts.

He looked up.

A blinding red flame rushed towards them.

【"Who are you..."】

Su Bai stared, stunned, at the shattered hourglass on the ground.

"Teacher, look..."

"This was a gift from Rustan. I told him that our teacher said boys in love should occasionally learn to be romantic."

"He gave me this hourglass, saying that when the sand runs out, it will be the time we meet again."

[The blazing witch, consumed by flames.]

No, if you become like this, you can never go back, Rosalyn...

Even if you wanted to burn away all the demons in the world, no one would accept you.

【Stop.】

【Hello! 】

"Buyer, you said..."

【ha!】

Su Bai looked around at everything in confusion.

His best students have all disappeared.

The sound drifted from a nearby room.

"I come from another world. If I were to explore forbidden knowledge, would there be unexpected results?"

"After all, as you joked, Teyvat seems to be rejecting me. I think perhaps forbidden knowledge would welcome me."

"Perhaps I can find a way to eliminate forbidden knowledge."

【This is...】

Su Bai was shocked.

This is the scene where he discussed accepting forbidden knowledge with Bouyer.

There wasn't time to think too much.

Su Bai rushed towards the room, his body passing directly through the doorway and into the room.

[Buyer...]

A beautiful head of long, silver hair fell beside her fair feet.

She remains as beautiful as ever, her smile still as refreshing as a gentle breeze.

But Su Bai knew that she had already been corrupted.

"No, my dear Mr. Su Bai."

"After all, no one can guarantee what the consequences will be. If even you get contaminated, I'll feel even worse."

[Buyer walked to Su Bai's side and cupped the other's face in his hands.]

"I know you've always felt guilty about not being able to help me."

"But you've already done a lot."

"You are a teacher at the Academy of Teachings, a key figure in cultivating talent for Sumeru."

"Whether for the sake of Sumeru's future or for my own, you cannot afford to get hurt. I cannot let you risk contact with such a terrible thing."

Su Bai looked at himself, who seemed about to say something but hesitated.

[The emotions erupted at that moment.]

"Don't listen to Buyer, hey!"

"Can you hear me?"

"Don't always listen to Buyer. Go and explore forbidden knowledge. While Buyer is still here, you'll surely be able to find a solution to everything."

"Did you hear that? You're a grown man; you should take responsibility for protecting the one you love."

570

"The two of you are definitely more likely to succeed than one person, did you hear me..."

【"....."】

"Please, don't go along with her."

"I'm begging you..."

【...】

"I have a way to solve your problem, Your Majesty the Ice Queen."

[When Buyer suddenly vanished, Su Bai regained his senses and realized that the person standing in front of him had been replaced by the Ice Queen of Winter.]

[And Su Bai had already donned the mask of the Fools.]

The collection of God's Hearts begins.

Upon encountering the Blazing Flame Witch again, Su Bai jokingly addressed her as "Madam."

Even Mondstadt doesn't remember who she is.

Even though she helped Barbatos, who had already fallen into a deep sleep after dealing with Durin, kill a large number of monsters around Mondstadt.

[The blazing witch, now completely consumed by flames, is no longer the bright and innocent student Su Bai once was.]
