In a clean world with only blue sky and white clouds, there are two girls and a white mascot flying in the air.

"This is my story, the story of Elysia and the Thirteen Heroes of Fire."

Ying: "."

"I don't know what's going on, but I feel like my eyes are sour." After hearing Elysia's story, Paimon rubbed his eyes with his hand and said in a choked voice.

"Cutie, my story is over, now it's your story~"

"I, I don't have a story." Ying shook her head as she heard Elysia call herself, coming back from her unknown emotions.

"How could it not be?" Elysia was surprised: "The girl who is favored by the [God], I see a bright light like gold from you, you like this, there must be a lot of stories~"

"There are a lot of stories, but compared to Elysia, we seem to be a little unspeakable." Paimon scratched his head and said with some embarrassment.

"Everyone has their own story, and they can't be defined by how small or great they are." Elysia shook her head and said, "Now, I want to know about Ying, I want to know everything about her from her story. ”

Speaking of which, Elysia turned her head to Ying and smiled, "And, Ying, I've responded to you so many times, now it's time for you to respond to me once, right?" ”

Ying: "."

In the end, Ying told her experience to Elysia in a bland way.

"I see, the story is very good." Elysia nodded and said, "You met Him on the second leg of your journey." ”

"yes, since then, it's not an exaggeration to say that my journey has been smooth."

"That's good, I'm a little envious of you."

Ying: "."

You just talk, can you not get so close, I'm a little unaccustomed.

Seeing that Ying took a step back without a trace, Elysia said with some disappointment, "Oops, I'm hated." ”

"Don't get so close, I'm not used to it." Yingrong said expressionlessly.

"Okay, okay, I didn't expect that as a me, in another world, you would be as unkind as Mei Yi."

If your understanding of [human favor] is to make such a strange move, then don't do it.

Thinking of this, Ying still replied expressionlessly, "I'm not you from another world. ”

"Don't be so ruthless, I like you very much."

Ying: "."

So, what exactly did the tassel summon, and why did he change his slogan to this before.

"Blame me, you suddenly wanted to shout."

"Ah, tassels?!" Paimon was surprised, "Why did you come here all of a sudden?" ”

"Alas, someone was thinking about me in their hearts, of course I appeared, but I didn't expect that there were other people here." Tassel replied.

"Ah, what a perfect girl, can I hug you?"

Tassel refused without hesitation: "No." ”

"Well, that's a pity." The frustration on Elysia's face was palpable, but she quickly perked herself up and asked the tassel, "You're the other tassel I mean, aren't you?" Nice to see you. ”

"Oh? So how happy are you? Tassel asked, pretending to be confused.

Elysia: "."

Do you listen to what [man] should say?

Then, under the stunned gazes of Ying and Paimon, Tassel made a textbook act that made Elysia in front of her sign a series of unequal contracts before leaving satisfied.

After the tassel leaves, Elysia also comes back from her trance, and everything that happened before comes back to her mind.

Elysia: oP2.

"Elysia, are you alright?" Paimon asked with some concern as she looked at Elysia as she fell to the ground with a look of disbelief.

Elysia: "."

"Ying, what should I do now?" Seeing that Elysia didn't respond, Paimon turned to Ying and asked.

"I don't know, but I guess Alysia should be okay, right?" Ying replied with some uncertainty, "After all, she was smiling so happily before."

"Sure enough, it's true, the more beautiful and perfect a girl is, the more she can deceive." Elysia was still lying on the ground in disbelief and muttered, "She's not a god, she's a demon, that's right, that's how it is"

Ying: "."

Paimon: "."

"Is Elysia really okay? I don't think she's in the right state at this point. Paimon scratched his head and continued, "Besides, the tassel was too ruthless before. ”

"I don't think there's anything wrong with it, isn't it normal to trade with demons and sacrifice your soul to fulfill your wishes?" Ying glanced at Paimon and said, "Although the tassel is not a demon, it means the same." ”

"Is this really normal?" Paimon scratched his head and wondered, "Why do I always feel something is wrong?" ”

"Elysia, are you alright?" Ying beckoned to Elysia, "I'm going to get up, if you don't decide, then you'll have to stay in this space today." ”

"Huh? Wait, I'm all right. ”

After saying that, Elysia jumped up, and the expression on her face changed from before, to the first time Ying saw her.

"Why did you change so quickly?" Paimon wondered, "Didn't it last a second?"

"Hey, it's just that someone beat me in what I do best, and I'm a little disappointed." Elysia sighed and said, "I didn't expect me to have this day, but although the contract made me lose everything I had, I also got everything I wanted." ”

"And in terms of results, it's perfect, isn't it~"

Speaking of this, Elysia's pink eyes were filled with the light of hope, "Kevin, Aponia, Thousand Tribulations and everyone, I believe that in the near future, we will definitely meet in a beautiful new world, and at that time, we will be able to live as ordinary people." ”

"Forgive me for my selfishness, I use everything I have from Him in exchange for your safe return, because you are too important to me, exchanging me for you twelve, this transaction is very worth it, isn't it~"

"Elysia."

"Don't worry about me, I'm fine." Hearing Ying's words, Elysia wiped the corners of her eyes with the back of her hand and smiled at Ying, saying, "I'm very happy now, because [God] really exists in the world." ”

"Now He has answered my wishes. Let's go and see your world. ”

Ying nodded and said, "Okay." ”

After Tassel left the world of Ying, her figure appeared in her small courtyard, but at this time, she had a palm-sized girl in a long skirt condensed by pink light, and she had the same appearance as Elysia, which was all that Tassel took from Elysia.

"Elysia."

"Do you want to say at this time, I got Elysia." The Great Mercy Tree King suddenly spoke up.

"You put this aside to take in Pokémon." After Tassel put away the pink object in his hand, he complained to the Great Cishu King.

"Doesn't mean much, speaking of the original lawyer named Elysia, her behavior is really"

"Really?"

"It's nothing, this pink statue is pretty good, she'll be mine in the future."

Tassel: "."

After coming to this world, Elysia asked Ying to take her to explore the continent, and Ying, with her inexplicable affinity with Elysia, naturally agreed to her request, so the first stop, Ying naturally chose Mondstadt.

"This is Mondstadt, a land that is like the wind of freedom, and the people here must be living happily."

"Yes, it's a pity that their god is a god who doesn't do his job." Paimon spoke from the side.

"Are all the gods here like Him?"

"Of course not, the tassel is special, and the other seven gods here are not as strong as the tassel." Paimon explained, "Because of her appearance, the fate of this world has also changed. ”

Elysia smiled and said, "By the way, isn't your friend named Kamisato Ayaka coming along?" I can tell she likes you a lot. ”

"Ayaka said that she would practice in Liyue for a while, otherwise she wouldn't be able to keep up with Ying's footsteps in the future." Paimon replied.

"I think so, okay, let's go into the city and have a look."

"Well, let's go."

When the group entered Mondstadt, they saw Sucrose and Timaus talking to each other at the alchemy table.

"So, Miss Sucrose, you said the package you received wouldn't be anything dangerous, would you?"

Timaeus said, "You have to be careful when you open the package, last time I asked my friend to help me find some materials for research, but it turned out to be too bumpy in the transportation process."

"After unpacking, what comes to your face is a [fresh] smell that makes people wake up immediately when they smell it in a dream."

"If it's something like that in the package, why don't you ask Mr. Albedo first."

"No, not those dangerous objects," Sucrose said with a quick wave of his hand.

"Timaeus, Sucrose! What are you discussing here? Paimon Fei stepped forward and greeted the two.

"It's you! We're talking about the strange package that Miss Sucrose received earlier."

"Strange package?" Paimon wondered.

"Yes, it should have been sent by the Sumeru scholars who came here to study before, as a thank you gift for studying and discussing together." Sucrose replied, "But who is this?" ”

"Let me introduce you, her name is Elysia, and she's from Liyue." Paimon replied.

"Hello, my name is Sucrose, and I'm an apprentice alchemist." Sucrose greeted with some restraint.

"Don't be nervous, cutie." Elysia smiled and waved her hand, "I'm not that scary, am I?" ”

Sucrose: "."

"Akademiya scholars' packages. It doesn't feel like there's anything in there."

Hearing this, Sucrose continued with Paimon's words, "Well, it's not something dangerous inside, it's some strange cards. ”

"I think I've seen something similar here in Timaeus before, so I wanted to ask what it does."

Timaus wondered, "Similar cards? Is it a test card for a reagent that is used to distinguish it? ”

"It doesn't seem to be, you see, that's it."

With that, Sucrose opened the box, revealing the cards used to summon the Seven Saints inside.

"Ah, the card turned out to be a huh, so Miss Sucrose hasn't touched this before?" Timaius said with some surprise when he saw this.

"Not really. Speaking of which, what happened to the breeding project of five times larger sweet flowers on the snowy mountains during this time, is this the research that has recently been focused on by the academic community? ”

"Haha, if you want to say that there are quite a few people who pay attention, but it's not any research, but a fairly popular table game now." Timaius explained, "Its name is [Seven Holy Summons]! ”

"[Seven Holy Summoning]!" Paimon exclaimed.

"What are you surprised about? It's not like I haven't played it. Glowing glanced at Paimon.

"Hehe, isn't that livening up the atmosphere?"

"Ying, Paimon, what is this [Seven Saints Summon]?" Elysia wondered.

"Call of the Seven Saints is a tabletop card game developed by Liyue, and I didn't expect this card game to be so popular, but it has already reached Mondstadt after it was launched for so long." Paimon explained.

"Yes, there have been more and more people playing [Seven Saint Summoning] recently, and even Inazuma's Yae Hall is light on the theme of [Seven Saint Summoning], and the plot is also very interesting!"

Timaius explains, "It is said that a young man from Sumeru found an ancient Mystical Book box in his attic, and when he opened the lid of the box, he found that the spirit of the ancient player [King of Crocodiles] was housed inside. ”

"It turns out that the [Crocodile King], who is the deputy king under the Red King, was tragically plotted by the other party during the duel with the [King of the Ibis] and was sealed in the secret archive box."

"After being rescued by the boy, the spirit of the [Crocodile King] attached to the boy's body and helped him gradually become a legendary player."

"Wait, wait a minute, it's obviously a card developed by Liyue, why is it the story of Sumeru?" Paimon wondered.

Although it is true that this is the case in "Genshin Impact II", but here is the reality, and the [Seven Holy Summons] is not researched by those two Sumeru scholars.

"I don't know, but that's how the story goes, and maybe it's because the Seven Saints Call is a card game that's even more popular in Sumeru, and it seems that Liyue plays a lot less cards than Liyue, and they do other things a lot more than a few times."

"Well, it seems to be." Paimon scratched his head.

"Hmmmaeus?"

"What's the matter, Miss Sucrose, are you also interested in this story, I can lend you the light."

Sucrose waved his hand and said, "No, I'm thinking, last time you said that the deadline for the stage report was postponed due to some personal reasons"

"Ahem, I did slack off a while ago, but I have decided not to touch the Seven Saints Call for the time being until new progress is made in my research." Sucrose's words made Timaus say with some embarrassment.

"That's a bit of a pity."

"What's wrong?" Paimon wondered.

Sucrose explained, "Bi Jing is a game sent by a scholar who has worked with him, so at least I want to understand the rules and not live up to the intention of sending these cards." ”

"I'll teach you!" Paimon crossed his waist and spoke.

"Really, really? Paimon also plays? Sucrose wondered.

Paimon still tilted his head and said, "Of course, I'm pretty good. ”

"Well, then please." Sucrose heard this and thanked Paimon.

Paimon proposed, "Let's go to the Cattail Tavern now!" ”

"Huh? What to do at Cattail Tavern? Sucrose wondered, "Is Paimon going to see Miss Diona?" ”

"Miss Sucrose, let me explain, because everyone goes back to the Cattail Tavern to play the Seven Saints Summoning when they are leisure, and they will also give each other cards or something, which is very friendly to newcomers, and compared to the gift of the angel run by Lord Diluc, the people inside are all masters of playing [Seven Saints Summoning]."

"I see, thank you, Timaeus." Sucrose nodded and then suggested to the others, "Traveler, Paimon, and Elysia should go over now." ”

"To be honest, listening to Timaeus talk like this made me also a little curious about the Seven Holy Callings."

"Okay, let's hurry up and get going!"

"Ying, why did Sucrose call you a traveler? Don't you have a name? Elysia wondered.

Ying spread his hands and replied helplessly: "I don't know, except for some people, everyone else calls me a traveler, even if I have introduced myself."

"That's right."

After a few people came to the cat's tail tavern, they found a place to sit down.

"Ying, lend me your deck." Paimon said to Ying, "I'll instruct you on how to play Sucrose Seven Saints Summon." ”

"It's so good before, it's not like I'm going to use my deck." Glowing glanced at Paimon and said.

"Hey, hey."

Elysia spoke up, "Can I try?" ”

"Does Elysia want to play too?"

"Well, this card looks interesting." Elysia nodded.

"Well, who made me kind, I can also guide Elysia."

Elysia smiled and said, "That's hard work for Paimon." ”

"It's okay, it's okay." Paimon waved at Elysia and said, "If you know my poker skills, she can't beat me." ”

Ying: "."

Obviously, you haven't won a game of cards with me, who gave you confidence!

"Ahem, it's up to Master Paimon to introduce the rules to the two of you." Paimon ignored Ying's disdainful expression and pretended to moisten his throat and said, "The Seven Saints Summoning Needs."

Under Paimon's explanation, Sucrose and Elysia also have a preliminary understanding of the [Seven Holy Calls].

"This elemental dice box is amazing, what is its power source?" Elysia asked with some confusion as she looked at a palm-sized transparent box on the table, which contained eight octahedral dice of different colors.

"It's the wind element, but that's what you only use when you use a dueling plate, and ordinary elemental dice boxes need to be shaken by yourself." Paimon explains, "The Duel Board recognizes the abilities of the cards and makes changes accordingly. ”

"However, Duel Boards need to be verified as official players before they can be claimed at the appropriate locations in each city."

Elysia smiled at Sucrose and said, "I see, Sucrose, do you understand?" Let's try it out now. ”

"I, I get it too." Sucrose replied with some restraint.
