Ishalo, that's a distant name.

It was so long that Yue Yang almost forgot about the Shadow Xiang Mountain, and there was no Divine Cherry Tree at all.

Now following Ying to the cave under Ying Xiang Mountain, Yue Yang really remembered this memory of being transformed by the tomb.

500 years ago, it was not only the three Inazuma clans and Kage who saved Inazuma.

If it weren't for Ishtar, the god of a thousand winds, who was an ancient demon god, to show his hand to help, Inazuma would still not be able to change the fate of destruction!

Thinking of this benefactor of Inazuma.

Yue Yang remembered it very clearly.

When I first met Istaru, it was in Mondstadt during the Tower Lonely King.

In his life, named "Wendy", he gave his life for Mondstadt's freedom, but did not immediately start the next reincarnation.

Instead, in the form of a soul, he traveled to the border of life and death in Mondstadt.

At that time, it was not Barbatos who ruled the boundaries of life and death in Mondstadt.

It's the demon god of the old era, the lone king of the tower, who fell to Karabian.

However, due to the death of Karabian, Barbatos was not immediately canonized at that time.

Therefore, the soul of Yueyang, a different world, did not know where the boundary of life and death in Mondstadt was, and could only wander aimlessly in the land of Mondstadt.

I don't know how long it has been.

Yue Yang's soul floated across the sea to an island east of Mondstadt.

He still vividly remembered the encounter with Istaru.

"Huh? Isn't this Mondstadt's great hero? Why didn't you go to the next place?"

A crisp call.

Let Yue Yang's confused soul floating on the sea regain a bit of clarity.

Look back.

I saw a green-faced Istaru, accompanied by a thousand wisps of breeze, coming to his side.

"Are you..?"

Yue Yang was a little puzzled.

For he was convinced that he did not know this delicate-looking girl.

What's more, the strength of the other party looks very strong.

I saw Ishalo stretch out his friendly right hand towards Yue Yang, and smiled sweetly:

"My name is Ishalo, and I am known to the world as the God of a Thousand Winds, or the Demon God of Time, Mr. Wendy, can you play the piano for me?"

"You know me?"

Yue Yang was still puzzled.

"Of course~"

Ishalo said proudly, "Your good partner, but I have developed a spirit for it~"

"Wisdom has been generated for my good partner..."

Yue Yang frowned slightly.

In this moment, he suddenly realized that Mondstadt's struggle for freedom did not seem to be as simple as he imagined.

Because Barbatos is the thousand winds of the wind wall, which produces a wisp of wind spirits that produce wisdom.

With the help of Barbatos, he was able to lead Mondstadt to victory over Karabian.

Doesn't this mean that Mondstadt's freedom was expected by this Ishtarus?

Or is she in charge?

"Why are you looking at me with these eyes~"

Ishalo muttered: "Anyway, your soul is floating, play a song for me, what's wrong with chatting with me~"

「…」

Yue Yang was speechless.

If it is such a powerful existence, he is indeed not qualified to refuse.

What's more, the other party didn't push himself.

Instead of aimlessly looking for the boundary between life and death, it is not impossible to play the piano and chat at leisure.

For the next few days, Yue Yang's soul and Istaru stayed together.

This island is far from the mainland.

It is referred to as Crab Island in the player's mouth. 藲礿尛裞網

On weekdays, Yue Yang plays the piano for Ishalo, or chats together.

Yue Yang still remembers that the story of the fox demon little red lady he told always attracted Ishtar to show it

Then I wept.

Half a year later, Yue Yang's soul became weaker and weaker.

Ishtar was reluctant to lead him to the realm of life and death in Mondstadt, starting the next life of reincarnation.

…

Many lifetimes of reincarnation followed.

Yue Yang never met Istaru again.

Straight ago, Yue Yang, who was Rustan, died in the snow-capped mountains of Mondstadt in order to defend Mondstadt.

The soul naturally returns to the boundary of life and death, preparing for the opening of the next life of reincarnation.

Who knows, I happened to meet an old friend who I haven't seen for a long time.

"Yo, our great hero has once again died for Mondstadt~"

The familiar sound is still so pleasant.

I saw Istaru standing at the entrance of the border between life and death, smiling like a flower, as if he had been waiting for a long time.

"How did you recognize me?"

Yue Yang couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Well, no matter what you look like after you are reincarnated, but that's what your soul looks like~"

Ishalo said as he should.

"Then you're looking for me this time for..."

"Listen to the piano~! Listen to the story!"

Ishalo immediately interjected, impatience written all over his face.

also said with an expectant face: "I haven't heard you play everything you read for thousands of years~"

"And there's more~"

"You haven't finished telling me the story of the little fox demon Tu Shan clan yet~"

Yue Yang looked at Ishtaru's expectant appearance, so he had to smile bitterly and nodded, "Okay, then I'll accompany you."

In the days that followed.

The two of them were as they were thousands of years ago.

Stay at Crab Island.

Blowing the sea breeze and listening to the piano.

Listen to Yue Yang tell the story of another world.

Half a year passed quickly.

It was also time for Yue Yang to leave.

"Are we going to be separated again?"

Istarus was a little reluctant.

Not only did I not hear enough of the piano.

Even the story of the little fox demon didn't tell the finale.

Yue Yang looked down at his translucent body and said with a wry smile: "If you don't want me to go, then there may not be a chance to meet again~"

"Okay, then I'll send you to the border of life and death."

"Hmm."

Yue Yang nodded.

As he left, he glanced worriedly at the far southeast.

On the distant sea, there is Inazuma.

A lot has happened in the past six months.

Just a few days ago, the Seven Gods*** went to Kanria and launched a war to destroy the country.

At the same time, Kanria's mechs are also retaliating across the continent, the most serious of which is Inazuma.

If nothing else, Inazuma must be in the midst of a tough battle right now.

"Why, you have something on your mind and don't want to die?"

Ishalo sensed Yue Yang's emotions and couldn't help but be curious.

"Hmm... I'm just a little worried."

Yue Yang nodded.

"Is there anything I can do to help?"

Ishalo blinked, and said as he should, "I have listened to your story and listened to your piano, so I should take it as a reward~"

"Help..."

Yue Yang fell into thought.

He knew that Istaru was a powerful demon god.

But do you really want to ask Istaru to help change the history of Teyvat at this point in time?

But...

This question just flashed through Yue Yang's mind.

Although I was Sasayuri in that life, I lived in Inazuma for the sake of the mission.

But he and the Thor sisters.

The feelings with Fox Palace, Chiyo and others are all sincere.

Although now that the war has begun, I don't know how much more I can save.

But Yue Yang didn't want to miss this opportunity.

So, Yue Yang withdrew his gaze from Inazuma.

He looked back at Istaru.
