If Arecino is protecting them, then after the Travelers arrive in Winterland, will the Fools or other forces in Winterland make things difficult for them?

If that's really the case, then it's an absolutely dreamlike start!

"Wait a minute, Paimon!"

Unfortunately, Paimon's daydream was ruthlessly interrupted by the voice of a warm and cheerful older sister.

Everyone looked up and saw Alice leading Klee, with Nico by her side, the three of them walking towards them.

Alice wore a bright smile on her mature and beautiful face, and also corrected some mistakes in Paimon's previous words.

"Regarding the executive positions of the Fatui, Paimon, you can say that the Ice Queen took back the positions of the Doctor and the young girl Columbia, but the captain's position wasn't taken back~"

"To recognize the captain's contributions over the years, the Ice Queen specially reserved the first seat for him."

"Furthermore, the First Executive Officer is not the highest-ranking person in the Fools. Above all the executive officers, there is a Commander-in-Chief, who is the founder of the Fools and their supreme leader!"

After explaining all this, Alice brought Keli to Su Yu and greeted him with a smile.

"Su Yu, we meet again~"

As she spoke, Alice looked down at her daughter Claire and introduced her with a smile.

"Keli, this is your Uncle Su Yu. Come and greet him. You know, your Uncle Su Yu is very powerful!"

Keli stood gracefully in front of Su Yu, looked up at him, blinked her big eyes, and greeted Su Yu cutely.

"Hello, Brother Su Yu!"

When Alice heard that her daughter didn't call her "Uncle Su Yu" but instead called her "Brother Su Yu," she was taken aback for a moment, but quickly recovered.

"Hello, Cleo."

Su Yu crouched down and approached Ke Li with a warm expression. She then took out a red sphere, only half the size of Ke Li's palm, and handed it to her.

"Happy Lantern Festival, this is a gift from your brother."

Before Klee could even accept the gift, Paimon had already flown over impatiently, his eyes shining as he stared at the red sphere.

"Wow! A gift from Su Yu, what wonderful thing is it this time!?"

Keli looked up at Alice, and only after seeing her mother smile and nod at her did she accept the gift: "Thank you, Brother Su Yu."

"But... how do you play with this little red ball?"

Su Yu patted Ke Li's head and gently instructed her.

“I know Klee likes fried fish, but Jean and the others don’t allow Klee to fry fish, so I specially gave you this gift.”

"Inside this little red sphere is an ocean. As long as you hold it and think 'I want to blast fish,' the sphere will teleport you to the other side of the ocean, so you can blast fish to your heart's content."

Upon hearing this, Klee's round, bright eyes immediately shone with an unprecedented brilliance.

"Great!"

"Klee will have her own dedicated fish-frying base from now on!!"

The girl in the cute red dress jumped three feet high in the air, clutching the small red ball tightly in her hand, unwilling to let go.

Although she's just a little kid, Klee has a passion for fried fish, which has caused the Knights of Favonius in Mondstadt a lot of trouble.

Even so, Klee's desire to fry fish never wavered, but every time she went out to fry fish, she was easily caught by Jean and locked in the solitary confinement room.

Wow! Such a small sphere can actually hold an entire ocean!

Paimon's mouth dropped open as he looked at the small red ball in Klee's hand, his eyes immediately darting around.

"Hehe~"

Paimon turned to look at Su Yu with a fawning smile on his face.

"Hehe~ Su Yu, Happy Lantern Festival!"

Su Yu knew exactly what Paimon was thinking, so he didn't intend to take the bait and simply smiled and replied.

"Paimon, Happy Lantern Festival to you too!"

Seeing that Su Yu only gave such a dry blessing without any other expression, Paimon knew that he could not continue acting, so he immediately flew to Su Yu's shoulder and gave him a shoulder massage with a flattering expression.

"Su Yu, you've already given Little Keli a Lantern Festival gift, why don't you give me one too!"

Chapter 55 Lifting the Curse, Nico's Determination

Su Yu shrugged at her: "Of course it's because Keli is still a cute little girl, while Paimon, you're not a child anymore."

Without giving Paimon a chance to continue entangled, Su Yu turned to look at the two witches, Alice and Nico.

"Did you two bring Klee here specifically for the Lantern Festival in Liyue Harbor?"

Alice laughed happily: "Thanks to you, things have been quite peaceful on the Teyvat border lately, so I planned to come back and spend some time with Klee."

“It just so happens that the Lantern Festival is happening in Liyue recently. I heard the Traveler mention it when I was in Nordkalay. You’ll also be bringing your friends over in the next few days, so I thought I’d try to bump into you.”

"Oh, right, Nicole also has something to tell you."

Alice smiled and tugged at Nicole beside her, urging her to speak first.

"That...that..."

Nicole's voice echoed in Su Yu and the others' minds, and perhaps due to nervousness, Nicole's thoughts were too conflicted, which made her voice sound somewhat chaotic.

“I’m sorry… (sob)… I used you as the prototype for my novel without your permission… (Alice, you’ve ruined me)… (so embarrassing)… (damn it)… (I shouldn’t have done this)…”

Feeling the increasingly complex and confusing voices in her mind, making it difficult to grasp the main points, Su Yu immediately reached out to stop Nicole from continuing.

"Stop! Wait a moment!"

pat!

With a snap of his fingers, colorless energy swept over Nico like a gentle breeze.

Nico then felt that the curse that Tenryu had placed on him had disappeared, and his cursed body and mind suddenly felt a sense of relaxation.

"I...can speak now..."

Nicole opened her mouth and found that a sound was indeed coming from her mouth, which made her feel a little dazed.

The angels once rebelled because the Heavenly Law forbade them from loving each other. They were ultimately defeated and cursed by the Heavenly Law.

Since then, almost all angels have degenerated into physical forms and transformed into celestial beings. Although Nico was not degenerated so completely, she lost the ability to speak as a result.

Over the years, Nicole and all the members of the Witch's Guild have tried to help Nicole regain her ability to speak, but all their attempts have ended in failure.

But now, Su Yu has simply snapped his fingers and completely removed the curse that Heaven had placed on her, which is simply unbelievable.

"Wow! Su Yu, you're amazing! You lifted Nico's curse so easily!"

Alice pretended to be very surprised and praised Su Yu generously, looking at him with admiration, while also feeling happy for her good friend.

"Alice, isn't your expression a bit too exaggerated? It's just a curse."

Su Yu glanced indifferently at the dramatic housewife witch before turning to look at Nicole in front of her.

"What were you trying to say?"

Nico scratched her cheek a little embarrassedly: "Um..."

"I apologize for using your image in my novel without your permission!"

Paimon blinked, and having once dreamed of being a writer herself, she couldn't help but ask.

Why do you write novels?

Is this your hobby?

Nico shook his head and replied with a smug look, "My hobby is storytelling. Strictly speaking, writing novels isn't really my hobby, because the stories I want to tell can't be recorded in books."

"Besides that, my other hobby is writing novels to earn royalties, then putting the royalties into treasure chests and hiding them, and then secretly guiding those humans on their journeys to open the treasure chests and obtain the Mora!"

Paimon: "Huh?!"

fluorescent:"………"

Everyone: "..."

Silver Wolf glanced at Nico, who had his hands on his hips, nudged Su Yu with his elbow, and muttered something under his breath.

"Are you sure you really removed the curse from her just now?"

"Why do I feel like there's something wrong with her head?"

Ni, who was standing with her hands on her hips and looking smug, noticed that everyone was looking at her strangely, so she quickly asked them what was wrong.

"Hey? Don't you guys feel a great sense of accomplishment when you hide the Mora, set up some tests, and then guide the lost human travelers through the difficulties and finally get the Mora?"

Hei Ta looked at her with the kind of look one would give an idiot: "No normal person would do something like this, right?"

As a genius, Heta would naturally not have any financial difficulties in his daily life.

But when it comes to research in the lab, even the Black Tower will subconsciously focus its attention to avoid wasting too many resources, that is, money.

Of course, there's also the reason why Black Tower wanted to dominate the experimental process and was unwilling to easily accept the company's investment.

"hey-hey!"

Alice stepped forward with a grin and explained to everyone on behalf of Nico.

"You may not know this, but Nicole's true form is actually an angel. Her kind loves humans the most, which is why she has such thoughts."

Su Yu summarized it in one sentence: "Simply put, loving and helping humanity is the underlying code of Nicole and her angel race."

Looking around, Su Yu saw that it was almost noon and turned to look at Ying.

"It's getting late, and it's not good for so many of us to keep standing here. Let's find a place to sit down!"

Yingqin nodded slightly, a smile playing on her round, beautiful face.

"Let's go to Wanmintang!"

“I had already spoken to Xiangling beforehand, and she will reserve an empty table for us during the Lantern Festival.”

With Ying's words, everyone naturally had no objections, and they walked together toward the direction of Wanmin Hall.

Iris and Nico's purpose in coming to Liyue Harbor was Su Yu, and seeing this, they followed behind Su Yu with Klee.

Su Yu didn't mind, but turned around and gave Nicole a word of advice.
