Chapter 22
Your Elemental Power Is Just for Show?

【Collei】:Did I see right?

【Collei】:Mr. Su Mu suddenly appeared?

【Amber】:You're not mistaken, I saw him speak too!

【Kaeya】:What's going on? Why is Mr. Su Mu in the chat group?

【Su Mu】:You're making it sound like you guys didn't want to see me? If that's the case, then I'll come over.

【Ganyu】:So the things we were talking about just now were treated as requests by the system? That's why Mr. Su Mu was invited over?

【Su Mu】:That's pretty much it, but it needs the consent of the person involved. I figured you guys were dying to see me, so I came to this group to check it out.

【Keqing】:Truly unexpected

【Keqing】:Didn't expect to have the chance to see the real person.

【Zhongli】:Mr. Su Mu traveled a long way, unfortunately, we can't offer you any hospitality.

【Su Mu】:No worries, that world already took care of that. Besides, I didn't actually come in person.

【Ningguang】:Mr. Su Mu, could I ask what you experienced in Liyue? I'm very curious about what happened in the past.

【Su Mu】:That I can't tell you. It's not that I don't want to, but the system will block that content. But don't you guys already know the method?

【Ningguang】:Oh? Method?

【Su Mu】:How did I just come over?

【Ningguang】:You mean... we can submit requests to the system?

【Su Mu】:That's right, when the will is strong enough, you should be able to go back to the past.

【Ningguang】:I see. We'll ask the system to go back in time when we have the chance.

Amidst the laughter.

The screen lit up with a faint glow.

This signifies that Lumine's perspective is about to begin.

And so, everyone quickly turned their attention back to the screen.

After all, this is a contest of comparison, and they must remain fair and objective.

Time rewinds to the moment when Lumine and Paimon arrived in Fontaine with Linni on a cruiser.

The two of them first went to Linni's house with him and met with Fimiini, then met the "Fatui Harbinger" who came to collect debts at Beaumont Workshop.

The process was roughly the same.

But in reality, the reasons behind them were completely different.

The reason why Lumine and Paimon went to Beaumont Workshop was to help out with some odd jobs.

Everyone was used to this by now.

The only difference was the "Fatui Harbinger"'s state.

Or rather, the "Fatui Harbinger"'s state was off, but it wasn't able to manifest.

He entrusted his Vision to Lumine and Paimon for safekeeping, and described the existence of the Devouring Leviathan.

Lumine and Paimon were confused.

They then said goodbye to the "Fatui Harbinger" and strolled around the city.

It wasn't until the sunset painted the sky red that they took a boat to the opera house.

Arriving at the opera house, they met Lyney and Lumine heard strange murmurs, which Linnie explained to her.

However, she just shook her head in confusion, not thinking much of it, and followed Linnie's footsteps into the opera house to meet with Linni.

【Su Mu】:What about your elemental power?

【Su Mu】:You look like you got a concussion.

【Su Mu】:And someone explained to you that this thing is wrong.

【Su Mu】:You don't even try using elemental power to probe it? You're waiting for the opportunity to be delivered to you?

As soon as these words were uttered.

The chat group fell silent.

It's got to be said, Su Mu's words are spot on.

If it were them, they would have tried to probe it in some way or another.

【Lumine】:I...

Lumine wanted to retort.

But she couldn't think of how to refute it.

After all, Su Mu did just that.

Not only did he do that, but he also gained crucial intel as a result.

Otherwise, how would Su Mu know about the existence of the Primordial Sea of Chaos?

Clearly, he discovered this secret from Lyney and used this information to crack the case.

So Lumine could only remain silent.

She did a poor job with these details.

On the other hand, Su Mu didn't continue talking about her, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

The picture continues to advance. Lumine and Paimon follow Linnie's footsteps and meet Linni at the entrance of the opera house.

After gratefully receiving the VIP tickets Linni gave them, they walked into the opera house and saw Navillete sitting on the side.

Navillete didn't take the initiative to greet them.

In fact, he had no idea who these two were.

Seeing this, everyone's expression became somewhat strange.

You see, in Su Mu's perspective.

Navillete had always maintained a humble attitude.

This led them to believe that this was Navillete's nature.

However, when they saw this, they finally realized they had jumped to conclusions!

As the highest authority in Fontaine, and also the highest judge of Fontaine, how could he possibly be so humble!

It's clear that Navillete became humble because of Su Mu, not because he was inherently humble, they completely got the order of things wrong!

As it is now, Navillete doesn't even know Lumine and Paimon, and an awkward atmosphere hangs between them, even Paimon's face shows a strange expression!

"Hey... shouldn't we chat with the person next to us?"

"Just sitting here like this when nobody's around feels a bit awkward..."

"I'm sorry, I didn't notice the atmosphere, it's my bad for being careless."

"Eh? You can hear us talking?" Paimon was startled, clearly not expecting Navillete to hear them.

The two then engaged in an awkward conversation, until they introduced themselves and Navillete realized that they were the Traveler duo.

Throughout the conversation, Navillete maintained a respectful but unyielding attitude, seeming gentle yet distant, without any intention of bridging the gap between them.

"Oh right, although I'm reluctant..."

"But I'll tell you anyway."

"That guy over there has been striking a pose in the VIP seat for quite a while now."

"He's doing it so that the first time you see her, she can show off what she thinks is her coolest look."

【Amber】:Haha, as expected, this social death moment is inevitable.

【Collei】:If I were Ms. Furina, I'd probably be going crazy right now?

【Lumine】:Furinna, you're my best friend, we'll be best friends in our next life too!

【Furinna】:I think you're trying to use me as a shield! Wuwuwu... Stop it... This is the third time I've died socially...
