Looking at Kaia's leaving figure, Paimon scratched his head and said, "You still don't believe in Kaia, Dain... You two are both Camria, but you seem to be incompatible with each other."

Dain said calmly: "I really don't know much about him yet, and there is no point in making any further conclusions. Can bloodline... really have no impact on people? I'm just skeptical about it."

Seeing that the atmosphere suddenly became tense, the traveler changed the subject and said, "By the way, Alberich founded the Abyss Order? I thought my brother was the founder..."

Dyne glanced at the traveler and explained: "The reason why your blood relatives are called princes by the Abyss Cult is probably because of this [inheritance] relationship."

Paimon looked at the traveler and felt a little sad.

After chatting for a while, the traveler asked Dain about his plan to come to Xumi this time.

Dyne was silent for a moment, then looked at the traveler with a serious face and said: "Chasing [The Loom of Destiny]. Do you still remember this name?"

Paimon answered quickly: "Of course, it was the plan of the Abyss Order that we discovered when we were in Mondstadt!"

When the traveler heard Dain mention the "Loom of Destiny", his eyes lit up. So Dain had found a new clue, and he was one step closer to his brother.

Dain said calmly: "It's not a new clue. It's just... I was helpless because of the wear and tear of my memory before, and when I was recuperating, I accidentally remembered something... When I was traveling with your blood relatives, he once mentioned Live this word...[the loom of fate]."

The travelers were a little surprised. They didn't expect that it was so early in time and that it existed hundreds of years ago.

"I was a little surprised when the memories matched. In my mind, it was exactly what happened when we traveled to Xumi together."

Paimon: "So Dáin is going to investigate the place he mentioned back then?"

"Yes, there should be some kind of opportunity for the emergence of this [concept]... If my memory is correct, it was somewhere in the Xumi Daocheng Forest..." Dain nodded.

Paimon said anxiously: "Then let's hurry over now. Maybe there are secrets buried for hundreds of years waiting for us?"

Dain interrupted: "Now is not the time."

The traveler was a little surprised, but still chose to believe Dine and asked, "Are you worried about the Abyss Order?"

"No, it's just...the wine I ordered hasn't been served yet."

[Paimon: Cyno calls him a master! 】

[Kaiya: I’m afraid the body was taken away by the Gale Disciplinary Officer]

【Fire:Kanria Senor】

[Tinari: Xeno is completely famous, the kind that includes Xumi]

[Barbara: Now I kind of wonder if there is some mystery to Death in the Afternoon]

[Diona: Damn it! Another adult who loves to drink! 】

[Qin: The traveler’s brother has actually been to Xumi? 】

[Lisa: I never heard of a blond boy appearing when I was studying in Xumi]

[Nasida: According to what was said before, the traveler’s brother used some means to enter his information into the World Tree, otherwise the World Tree would not record him]

[Tinari: Are there traces of the Abyss Order in Daocheng Forest? I didn’t notice it when I patrolled the forest with Kelai before]

[Abyss: If we were discovered so easily by you, we would no longer be Abyss! 】

[Paimon: You are actually proud]

[Abyss: The abyss is omnipotent! 】

...

After Dain finished drinking, the group prepared to set off for Daocheng Forest...

As he walked forward, Dyne felt a familiar feeling.

Paimon looked around and asked curiously: "It looks a bit ordinary. Was this place the same hundreds of years ago?"

Dyne nodded and said: "Everything in this forest has not changed much from what I remember. After all, the environment here is rarely touched by humans. Investigate the area around here, maybe there will be some clues."

The three of them continued walking for a while and found an abandoned field and an uninhabited wooden house.

"Is this a field? It should have been cultivated by the residents of the house over there, right? But it seems to have been abandoned for a long time. It's impossible to tell that anything has been planted here...or is there really anything planted here?"

"Was the extinguished bonfire left by the ranger? Judging from the traces, it was a long, long time ago that the last bonfire was lit here, and attention was paid to extinguishing the fire to prevent fires."

Dyne also finished his search. There was nothing worth noting around, and the only thing left was that room.

...

Three people enter the hut

The dust in the hut was a bit heavy, and it looked like it hadn't been occupied for a long time.

The three of them found a bowl for eating, but it had a strong smell of medicine.

There was a broken mirror placed in a box on the table. The traveler looked at it carefully and found that it was a very ordinary mirror.

Paimon went to Dyne to confirm again: "It feels like there is nothing special to pay attention to here. Dyne, are you sure you remember correctly? Is this really this area?"

"Although my memory is indeed a bit fuzzy, my subconscious and instinct have always told me that something did happen here. Well, aimless investigation will only wear away the mind. I happened to hear some movement outside, so I'd better go out first. "

[Paimon: Ying, there is a legend among Inazuma that you must not look in the mirror in the middle of the night, otherwise something terrible will happen]

[Ying: Are you afraid of ghosts? You are so cowardly]

[Wudao: No, Paimon has seen ghosts so many times, he should be able to resist it]

[Xiao Gong: Why didn’t I know I couldn’t look in the mirror in the middle of the night? Where did you hear the rumors? 】

[Paimon: We were in Konta Village before, and an old man said this]

[Yae Shenzi: Inazuma only has monsters, there is no such thing as ghosts. Ghosts are a specialty of Liyue]

[Hutao: Can you explain what a specialty is? Ghosts are the obsessions that humans do not want to leave after death. Although some of them are explosive, they all have a sense of belonging to Liyue]

[Gan Yu: Hall Master Hu is right, everything has two sides]

[Arataki Yidou: Hey, hey, hey! I am from the ghost tribe, what do you mean?]

[Kujo Sora: Just after I let you out, you started making trouble again. Oni tribe are also monsters. Come on, follow me back to the prison, don’t force me to do anything]

[Kuki Shinobu: Alas, I came here specifically to pick up the boss today, but...]

[Haoyou: Oh, he seemed to have been imprisoned last month. Why was he imprisoned again today?]

[Ying: Isn’t this just to get in close contact with Sanluo? They are a perfect match]

[Kujo Sora: If you let him out this time, he will get into trouble again within five days. It is better to stay in jail and reflect.]

[Keli: This big sister is so scary, just like Captain Qin. Every time Keli went to fry fish, she would be put in solitary confinement]

[Alice: Honey, how about we blow up the solitary room next time]

[Qin: Ms. Alice, don’t teach Kelly bad things]

[Amber: A small bomb can blow up the Knights. It would be very troublesome to rebuild it later.]

...

Clean up the monsters that appeared

Dyne decided to go a little further away to investigate the problem of the nearby ley line, and asked the traveler and Paimon to wait for him here.

The traveler and Paimon were busy for a while, and it was already evening before they knew it.

"The food you cook is still so delicious. Your cooking skills alone are enough for me to follow you!" Paimon praised.

The traveler smiled helplessly. This guy was easily deceived.

"Speaking of which, Daine is too slow. It's already dark and he hasn't come back yet. He said there's something wrong with the nearby earth veins. Is it really going to be something serious?" After waiting for Daine for a long time, Paimon didn't come back. Worry.

"Oh, we obviously came together, but now it's just the two of us... But thinking about it, the two of us have spent a lot of time alone together."

"Well, um...nothing else, I just wanted to ask...wouldn't it be boring to be with me?" Pamon lowered his head shyly, looking at the traveler from time to time.

The traveler said without hesitation: "Thanks to always having Paimon, I'm very happy."

"Hey, hey, I'm a little embarrassed to say it so bluntly." After hearing the traveler's words, Paimon covered his eyes shyly and said.

After a while, Paimon asked a little embarrassedly: "So...well, I don't know if you want to mention it...I want to know what it's like when you and your brother travel together?"

The traveler looked up at the starry sky and said: "At that time, we would look at the starry sky like we do now and point to the planet we want to go to."

"We traveled between the stars and were never separated. We have seen all kinds of hope and despair in the universe. This is the first time we have been separated from each other. At least... I want to know what happened."

Paimon comforted the traveler: "I can understand your mood. It would be too sad if you can't even figure out the reason for the separation. I will definitely be your guide, and the truth will always be revealed."

Paimon turned around and faced the Sky Island in the sky, put his hands on his hips and said, "Look, Tianli! Look, Teyvat!"

So did the traveler.

"Hey, it's my fault for mentioning these things that make you sad. You should be happy. If you are not happy... I will be sad too."

Traveler: "Thank you, Paimon."

Seeing that it was getting late, Paimon asked the traveler to go to bed early and stand guard in person at night to prevent the monsters from eating her.

Seeing Paimon's serious look, the traveler couldn't help but smile and joked, "It's so rare that you didn't go to bed first."

Paimon was also embarrassed. He did go to bed early before, but today was different. Today he also wanted to take care of the traveler.

[Paimon: Ying, is everything you said true? Wouldn't it be boring to be with me? 】

[Ying: Although we are not related by blood, we are better than relatives. Just give me less commissions next time]

[Paimon: Hey! Not next time]

[Xiao Palace: Paimon Vigil will not be taken away by monsters, right? Paimon has no attack power]

[Keqing: The traveler is right next to her, Paimon will definitely call her if something happens]

[Mona: Paimon, who can catch General Thunderbolt's sword, do you think he will be taken away by a monster? 】

[Kaia: Paimon who can be defeated by the traveler will hide behind the traveler, and Paimon who cannot be defeated by the traveler will come out to protect the traveler immediately]

[Ying: Paimon is the starting point of the journey, not the end]

[Xiaogong: Talking about Paimon receiving the general’s sword, my mind suddenly came to Toma kneeling on the court to accept the trial]

[Thomas: I don’t want to experience this kind of thing! 】

[Alice: A picture suddenly appeared in my mind. Paimon violently beat up the bad-faced general, sucking him. It was so exciting]

[Miko Yae: It seems a little exciting, haha...]

[Shadow (pulling his tail): Son of God, I’ll give you a chance to reorganize your language]

[Yae Shenzi: Alice, I’m going to say this today. You can disrespect me, but you can’t make fun of Ying! 】

[Paimon: Son of God, if you are threatened, just blink]

[Miko Yae (blinking): What nonsense are you talking about, I am the best sister in the shadow]

[Shadow: At this moment! Time of Nirvana! 】

...

Recalling the memories of blood relatives, the traveler fell into a deep sleep...

"Hey, wake up, it's already dawn, don't sleep." The traveler vaguely heard Dine's voice in his sleep.

Dain looked at the traveler in front of him who had been rubbing his forehead with his hands, and said helplessly: "Why are you so sleepy and still have to..."

Dain, who was about to say something, saw the tears in the corner of the traveler's eyes, and said hesitantly: "The tears in the corners of your eyes...did you dream about your blood relatives last night? Okay, just rest here first. , I’ll go take a look at the distance in the forest.”

After a while, the traveler woke up from his sleep and stretched himself.

I thought: Why did I sleep until morning? Didn't Paimon wake me up to change my shift? Wait, where did Paimon go? I seem to vaguely remember that Dine was here. Could it be that Paimon followed Dine to the forest because he saw that I wasn't awake?

In short, the traveler is alone now, so he needs to get up to stretch his muscles and investigate the situation nearby.

[Keli: Why did little Paimon suddenly disappear? Was he eaten by a monster? 】

[Ying: I'm so big, why is Paimon missing? 】

[Paimon: Why do you think I will leave with Dyne? The two of us have basically never been separated. Besides, like Dyne and Kaia, we can only believe half of what they say]

[Deinsreib:...]

[Nacida: I think this is a dream. The traveler saw someone’s memory. This is the traveler’s own ability]

[Kaia: That being said, I actually remembered that in the Strata Abyss, the traveler also saw fragments of her brother’s memory, and that was also one of the few fragments where the traveler began to speak]

[Ying: I just don’t like to talk, it doesn’t mean I can’t talk]

[Tinari: I have been in Daochenglin for so many years. I am familiar with every place, but I have never seen this place before.]

[Ke Lai: The traveler came to someone’s memory fragment? 】

[Xiaogong: Do you think it could be the memories of Brother Traveler and Dain? Didn’t Dain say that this place is very familiar before? 】

[Dyne: When twins are connected to each other, they will only see fragments of each other’s memories]
