"So you're going to be in Mondstadt for a while, right?" found Ying, who was out of breath, and after some communication, Ying told Anping that she still needed to continue exploring the snowy mountains for a while.

She discovers the remains of an ancient kingdom, perhaps related to the power that suppressed Durin and prevented the catastrophe from spreading.

"Is that the power of the Old Kingdom?" Anping was a little surprised, he didn't expect that there was an ancient country on the snow-capped mountain.

"No, it's the power that destroyed the Old Kingdom." After listening to Ying's description, An Ping was secretly frightened.

"Alright then, I'll go back with Zhongli first, Liyue has a lot of things waiting for me... I won't forget to help you find out about Inazuma, so if you come to Liyue, remember to come to me. Anping was ready to say goodbye to Ying.

"By the way, Anping, I remember that before you passed out, you were talking about a good boy or something. What's going on? Before Anping left, Ying asked this question.

During this time, she looked through all of Mondstadt's accounts of Doolin, and all of them depicted the bleak scene of Mondstadt at that time when Doolin had obscured the blood and fire brought by the sky of Mondstadt.

"Actually, it's similar to the situation of coming into contact with the spiritual core of Lyonard, and while I accept Durin's vitality, I also see its sad life." An Ping sighed.

"Pathetic? What the hell is going on? Ying was very curious.

"Doolin is a man-made creature."

"What?! The dragon that almost destroyed Mondstadt was actually man-made!? This alone shocked Paimon and Ying.

"Well, although Durin only has the title of mother in his memory, all I heard was the voice that blessed Durin and let him go to a good place and show his beauty. Durin was drawn to Wendy's singing and came to Mondstadt. "I was attracted by Wendy's singing... Ying and Paimon couldn't help but think of the incident when Wendy played and sang the core of the storm that day.

Although there have been good things like the East Wind Guardian Dvalin, how does it feel like Mondstadt is all about causing trouble for his people?

"Durin had only a dream in which he came to a land where singing and dancing and green grass was fragrant, and dreamed that he sang with the good people and danced in the air with the jewel-like beauty of the dragon until it opened its eyes. Finally realizing that the blood and fire that stained the beautiful land were his own calamity, Durin chose to give up and let Dvalin's teeth pierce its neck. ”

"Durin is full of kindness to the world, but unfortunately its arrival represents disaster, fear, despair and violence, and it is also full of regret and apology at the last second before it dies. Of course, there is no doubt that what Durin did back then caused to Mondstadt, and I am not trying to clear his name or anything, but I will inevitably have some sympathy after learning the truth. "That's what happened.

From Doolin's point of view, it is indeed embarrassing. But that's not the answer Ying wants to hear.

"So why did Durin transfer the life force to you?"

“… I don't know! But Durin's life was very short, so there were absolutely no descendants or anything..."Before this, Anping himself almost believed that he was related to Durin.

"If it's not you who have a relationship with Doolin, then you have a relationship with the person who created Doolin? Are you also an artificial human? Ying blinked and looked at An Ping suspiciously.

"That voice... I only heard it for the first time from Durin's memory, and it probably won't have anything to do with me..."An Ping scratched his head.

"But I guess it has something to do with my special attack on children... After all, Durin is also a child, and it's not something I can't accept to be attracted to... Look at Paimon..."

"Paimon isn't a kid!"

"Then you are forbidden to ride my neck in the future!"

"Hmm... Paimon can be counted as a child in terms of size..."Anping tossed Ying one

"Look" in his eyes. That's not to say nothing... This guy's unusual attraction to Lori is stronger than that of a girl.

So is Durin actually a baby she-dragon? Ying couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

"Then I'll go first..."

"Wait!" When Anping was about to leave, he was stopped by Ying.

"Anything else?"

"Have you made a fortune somewhere lately, it seems that you have suddenly become very generous, and even Zhongli's spending in Mondstadt this time is paid for by you..."

"yes, yes, and there is no distressed expression on his face!" Paimon chimed in.

"What are you talking about? Am I being unkind to you in Liyue?! Isn't Paimon just buying whatever I want?! It's just that the insurance business is negotiated, and I'm about to become a real rich man..."An Ping blushed and defended.

"But after the same insurance is negotiated, you buy me a grilled fish and you look like your flesh hurts..."

"And you told Mona..."Ying and Paimon both looked at Anping suspiciously. Is Mona a big colander like Paimon?

！ But Mona... Speaking of Mona, Anping suddenly remembered a very bad thing.

"Did we forget Mona—" He gave Mona tens of thousands of Mora, barely enough to survive his return to Liyue from the Dragoncrest Snow Mountain.

But now it's been delayed for a month. Liyue is not easy to live in, and it is not a place where tens of thousands of Mora can live for a month.

"That's right!" Ying also woke up like a dream.

"Mona wouldn't be hungry now, would she?" Paimon was worried, too.

"I'd better hurry up and pack up and go back and see how she's doing." An Ping, who had diverted the topic, hurriedly opened up.

"He's been fooled around..."Paimon craned his waist as he watched Anping's back.

"Forget it, he doesn't want to say that there must be a reason for him." Ying is just a little curious, but anyway, it's nothing more than a windfall, as for what it is, Ying doesn't really care.

After all, she also has a lot of income on the way to adventure, although the expenses are not small, but there is still rarely a shortage of money.

It's just that Paimon's food costs seem to be getting higher and higher lately... And she didn't gain any weight, and I don't know where what she ate.

It's already completely substandard emergency food! Anping and most of the people he knew well had already said goodbye.

In addition to Yula... Yura has been tracking the Abyss Order active in Mondstadt lately, and Anping has yet to find a chance to invite her for a drink and talk to her.

When passing by the Adventurers' Guild, I saw Fischl there.

"Huh, are you coming? My nemesis, Taslak, the evil dragon! My Seal - Liberation! The Great Fantasy Dream is full of madness and sin eyes! Let this darkness and holiness turn you to ashes! That's it, that's it, the sinful dragon was perfectly suppressed by me... Hum hum ~ "Before I got closer, I heard Fischl committing a second illness.

"Well... It's you—" Miss Catherine's face was full of embarrassment.

"Little Amy! It's time to go home for dinner! Suddenly there was a call from the city gate, and Fischl suddenly looked like a cat with its tail grabbed.

"Daddy! You're going home first... Wrong... This princess is Fischl, who is the convicted Fischl, who is little Amy..."Anping originally wanted to go over to say hello, but when he saw this scene, he decided to forget it, don't go and poke Her Royal Highness.

But was Fischl's real name Amy turned out to be little Amy? What a cute name.
