As he spoke, he looked towards Dishia who was lying on the ground.

"Useless! Utter useless! You're still a bloody lion. I can hire a dog that's better than you!"

"You guy..."

Kaeya frowned. Just as Amber was about to move, Kaeya stopped her and shook his head, signaling Amber not to act rashly. Amber curled her lips, thought of the Fatui, and withdrew her hand.

"Hey! This guy is so arrogant!" Paimon, who is not a Mondstadt person, spoke bluntly and complained in Ying's ear.

Seeing Kaia and Amber's actions, Chayevich became even more proud.

"What if I'm arrogant? Even if we, the people of Winter Solstice, break the law in Mond, you, Mond, have to treat me like a master!" As he spoke, Chayevich's eyes moved from Dishia to Nilu, and he walked towards Nilu, thinking of the grievances he had suffered in the underground ruins a few days ago, "How dare you break my hand..."

Chayevich raised one foot and prepared to step on Nilu's body.

Ying clenched the one-handed sword.

This soul is weak!

Although I don’t know what Kaeya and the others are worried about, I, the traveler, don’t have those concerns!

When Ying was about to teach Chayevich a lesson, someone moved faster. Dixia, who was lying on the ground, suddenly grabbed the greatsword that fell beside him.

"You, stay away from her!"

Waving the greatsword in his hand, Chayevich let out a scream and his body was split into two, just like when he was at the Xumi assessment site, Dishia split the student who was close to Dina Zedai into two.

"Roar." Kaia said to Amber without changing his expression, "The merchant Chayevich of the Kingdom of Winter was killed by the Scarlet Mane Lion. If the Fatui ask, just answer like this. After all, it is the truth."

"Heh, that doesn't look like a knight at all."

Dixia supported herself with the sword and managed to stand up. This attack had used up the last of her strength, and now it was difficult for her to move.

Dixia's gradually weakening voice: "Finally, I want to ask you for a favor."

"What's going on?" Kaia asked.

Dixia's gaze fell on Nilu lying on the ground, and lingered on the white mask she was still wearing: "I want to see her face again."

"it is good."

Ying squatted down and gently took off the mask on Nilu's face. Under the mask, there was a face still with a smile.

She felt that blocking a fatal blow for Dishiya and dying for Dishiya was a very happy thing, which was why she had such a smile, right?

Looking at Nilu's face, Dixia couldn't help but smile.

"You are still as gentle as ever, just like Dina Zedai back then. I can't help wanting to keep you by my side..."

The fog that permeated the place gradually dissipated and it started to rain.

"Hmm? It's raining at this time? Nello, are you crying for me from heaven? It's a pity that what I did can only be buried in the underworld after I die, right? We have always been together, so I want to be by your side in the end... If possible, I really want to go to the same place... with you..."

Dixia recalled that when she left Xumi, Nilu was standing beside her, and the two of them looked towards the direction of Xumi City for the last time.

"We will come back." Dixia said to herself, "We will come back and make Xumi the way I want it to be."

Dixia said solemnly: "I will become the biggest evil dragon in this world, and then... I will kill all the evil dragons in the world."

"But, Dixia, all the evil dragons in the world...you are also an evil dragon, right? Do you want to kill yourself?"

"Too much nonsense, tools don't need so much words!"

"Well, but if that day really comes, I want to open a big theater in Xumi City. What do you think of the Grand Bazaar, Dishiya?"

"I've already told you that you talk too much! Let's go. If you stay too long and get discovered by the expedition team, it'll be a waste of time!"

"Uh-huh."

Two figures left Xumi.

Dishia's thoughts returned to the present.

I'm sorry, I can't fulfill my original promise, and I can't open a theater for you in the Grand Bazaar, and I can't watch your performances anymore.

Finally looking at Nilu's figure, Dishia closed her eyes, the sword in her hand could no longer support her, and her body fell to the ground.

"Father, what does the dragon mean?"

"He's the big bad guy who brought disaster to everyone."

"I understand. Little Jixiang Grass King is the evil dragon that dad was talking about, right?"

I didn't kill the evil dragon after all. The evil dragon still exists in this world...Father...

The rain stopped.

Dixia and Nilu were buried together in the wild by several people. They simply erected a wooden tablet with a few scribbled words "To the Respectable Opponent" written on it. For some reason, it was not clear who erected it and who was buried there.

Ying looked at the wooden tablet with mixed feelings.

I woke up in this world and made a human friend... but he left very quickly. I fought him myself and died in the battle.

Ying has a new understanding of this cruel world.

And the one who caused all these tragedies was the god called Little Auspicious Grass King, right?

Ying clenched her fists, as if she had made up her mind.

the other side.

"Lord Istaru, Dishia is dead."

"Humph, I thought she understood this world, but I didn't expect it to be just this level? Ridiculous." A cold voice said, "People become weaker when they have ties, so I will cut off all the ties in this world and create a new world!"

Chapter 51: Kaiya's Past

Kaeya also had a lot of feelings. Although he said that the opponent's sword was blunt, when had his own sword ever been sharp?

Kaeya is not a pure Mondist. He is a remnant of the Kanreya clan that was destroyed by the gods five hundred years ago. Since he was a child, he has received strict training that is not much worse than Sumire.

In the icy and snowy ground, the young self stood with his upper body naked and fists waving forward, while his biological father beside him shouted with a teaching stick in his hand:

"What is our purpose!"

"Rejuvenation!"

Kaiya was shivering from the cold weather, but as soon as he moved his body, his biological father's whip would mercilessly whip his body, leaving bloody marks.

Snapped--!

"louder please!"

"Restore the country! Restore the country! Restore the country!"

Kaiya shouted at the top of his lungs. If he had known, if he hesitated for a moment or his voice was not loud enough, he would face more than just a few whippings.

But even so...

Snapped--!

Still, he was whipped even more severely.

Kaiya swayed a bit, gritted his teeth and endured the pain.

"Remember this pain! When Kanria was destroyed, our experience was even more painful than this! Now that the countries of Teyvat are in constant conflict, it is the best time for us. If you can't even bear this pain, how can you talk about restoring your country!"

"I understand!"

After rigorous training during the day and learning various knowledge at night, he could not fall asleep until very late. After a tiring day, he fell asleep quickly as soon as he touched the pillow. When Kaia woke up, he found himself in the camp of the Hillichells.

"This is where?"

Before the young Kaia understood the situation, he heard his biological father's voice from high above the camp.

"Stay alert even when you are sleeping! This is your punishment. Kill all these hillbillies and get out of here alive!"

"But..." Kaia was still a little confused, "Didn't they say that the Hillichuls are actually us..."

Before he could finish his words, a Hilichurl archer in the distance raised his crossbow and shot an icy arrow towards Kaeya's right eye.

"what!"

Kaia screamed.

The cold voice of my biological father: "If you can't do it, then die here!"

Without fighting, there is no survival. When the young Kaeya stood wounded in the camp full of Hilichurl corpses, he began to understand the rules of this world. As the training intensified and the fighting continued, Kaeya's heart grew colder, but according to the evening lessons, he also had to learn to fake a smile.

Until that day comes.

"From now on, you will carry out your own missions and do not bring shame to your last name, Alberich."

Kaeya was cruelly abandoned in Mond by his biological father, but the one who opened his arms to Kaeya became Mondskripps Leggenfonde. Kaeya became the adopted son of the Leggenfonde family and worked as a spy planted in Mond by Kanrea.

Klips Legenfond, the owner of the Dawn Winery and his adoptive father, brought him to the winery, where there was a red-haired boy.

The foster father said: "From today on, you are brothers. You must get along well with each other in the future."

The red-haired boy smiled and extended a hand to Kaeya: "Hello, my name is Diluk."

Diluc Leggenfond? Well, he seems to be a very enthusiastic fool. Let me make good use of your kindness to help me integrate into Mondstadt and complete the task better.

Kaiya put away the coldness on her face, put on a fake smile and shook the hand that Diluk extended: "Hello, my name is Kaiya, please take good care of me in the future."

Kaiya thought his heart would remain cold forever, but here, his adoptive father treated him as his own son, and for the first time he experienced the warmth of father's love and the affection between brothers. There was no cruel training, no fighting as soon as he opened his eyes, only a life that he had never dared to imagine before. Gradually, his cold heart began to melt without him knowing when.

How great would it be if it could continue like this?

But Kaiya will never forget that all this is fake and that he is a spy. If this identity is known to others, everything will be gone.

On one hand, there is my mission, and on the other hand, there is my adoptive father who raised me and was so kind to me. If a war breaks out between Kanria and Mondstadt, which side should I stand on?

Kaeya hesitated, living in torment every day, and soon the torment disappeared, so that he even forgot the vigilance he had maintained at the beginning, until the day he was too late, and his godfather Krips Leggenfond was killed by his brother Diluk himself. He felt relieved, but also ashamed.

On that rainy night, he and his sworn brother Diluk faced each other.

Diluk, who once had a fiery face, turned cold.

"Kaiya, tell me, who are you?"

"Haven't you noticed it a long time ago? That's right, I'm a spy planted in Mondstadt by Kanreya."

"That is to say, you are Mond's enemy."

Diluk pointed the greatsword in his hand at Kaeya. Flames were burning on the sword, and the strong fire element was sizzling.

"Well, the boring game of pretending to be brothers is over."

Kaeya's sword was also pointed at Diluk.

At this moment, Kaeya, who revealed his identity in full, had never felt so relaxed. Kaeya also obtained his own ice-attributed God's Eye.

The collision of fire and ice, red and blue, and the one who obtains the Eye of God can easily drive the elemental force. Theoretically, he will become stronger than before, but Kaeya feels that he is so "weak" at this moment.

Kaeya fell to the ground, with the tip of the sword in Diluk's hand pointing at Kaeya's head.

Kaeya closed his eyes and waited for his own judgment, but the judgment did not come, and Diluk retracted the greatsword in his hand.

Kaia opened his eyes.

"why?"

Diluk's words were still cold: "I killed you before, but now I give you your life. From now on, you must live to protect Mondstadt."

"Oh, you want a spy like me to protect Mond? If you don't kill me now, you will regret it!"

Diluk left here, leaving behind his last words.

"If that day comes, I will kill you again with my own hands!"

Kaia was the only one left here. He laughed while coughing up blood, but this time, it was not a forced smile, but a smile from the heart.

…………

Kaia withdrew his gaze from the wooden tablet, turned away, and spat lightly.
