Chapter 24: Paimon, Best Buddy!

Uchiha Itachi's cold eyes when he was exterminating, and the words that he pointed to his forehead when he was a child and said: Forgive me, Sasuke's warm picture constantly overlaps and tears.

There is also the overlap of the father's back when he was a child and the figure lying in a pool of blood.

Memories of ninja school are intertwined with the experiences of growing up in a family as a child.

It's repeated, replayed, and then abstracted.

It's like a sharp knife, dead against the heart, remember a piece, the sharp knife will enter a point, even if the pain is breathless, it will not stop.

His body trembled uncontrollably, and he inhaled heavily, but he still couldn't breathe, and his face was distorted by mental stimulation.

Sasuke's hideous appearance at this time startled the other two people present.

Vera, in particular, didn't know why the hilichurl killer had such a big reaction.

She shoves a piece of paper with an image on it to Paimon.

"What, what, I don't know what happened to him, but it doesn't look good, I'm not a doctor, if you need help, you can go to church and find Barbara, she's a pastor, she should be able to help him."

"This is the information you need about the ruins of Arcadia."

"In the city of the lake dwelt three giants with six arms. Two guard the idols and one guard the treasures of the gods. ”

"This is an attached picture on the paper that records the information, if we need to contact us next time, the reward for this analysis will wait for this little brother to get better."

"Then I'll go first, goodbye."

Vera is still very professional as an intelligence officer, and insists on explaining all the information before running away.

But at this time, Paimon looked at Sasuke who was in such pain, and her desire to find the treasure had long been thrown away by her, and she took Vera's paper, and didn't listen carefully to what the other party said behind her, and flew directly into Sasuke's arms, hugged Sasuke tightly with both hands, and gently patted his back with both hands, hoping to pass on her warmth to the other party.

"Sasuke, Sasuke, what's wrong with you?"

"You look so horrible, your eyes are so red, you ...... You...... What's wrong with you? ”

"Paimon is here, if you feel uncomfortable, you must tell Paimon......"

"Sasuke ......"

It was also the first time she had seen Sasuke look so helpless and crazy and miserable as he was now.

After meeting Sasuke, Sasuke has always given her the impression that although he looks cold on the outside, he is actually a very fiery person on the inside.

He would bring herself otherworldly food, would order her her favorite drink, would protect himself when fighting the hilichurls, and was a very nice person, very warm person.

Obviously, he has such an unfortunate background in another world......

Paimon kept comforting Sasuke in a whisper.

I don't know how long it took, Sasuke gradually stopped trembling his body, his brows were no longer tight, the writing wheel eyes on his eyes faded, and his eyes became clear.

“…… Thank you, Paimon. ”

At this time, Sasuke's voice became softer and softer.

It was also the first time he had looked at Paimon so closely.

Paimon is a small, wingless, flying, gluttonous but cute creature.

She had white hair, a pink and golden crown, starry eyes, small hands and legs, and she was holding him as if she were surrounded by a soft marshmallow.

Sasuke, who was embraced by her, felt the warmth he hadn't felt for a long time, especially when he had just been so helpless and so powerless.

This feeling of being valued, cared for, and comforted by others has not been felt in Konoha for a long time.

Paimon is indeed the best buddy.

"Sasuke, are you alright?"

Paimon's voice became slightly hoarse as he had been whispering comforting.

"What the hell happened to you just now, it's really scary......"

"And your eyes, which have just changed for the better...... Weird, do you want us to see a doctor? ”

"I'm fine."

Sasuke gently pushed Paimon away, stood up and moved his body, indicating that he was okay.

"I just had some speculations, and if these speculations are true, they completely overturn a lot of my previous perceptions, so there is some confusion."

Paimon was relieved to see that Sasuke seemed to be okay now.

"Is it your family business in that world? Although I don't understand it too much, but looking at your conversation, what happened in the past, there is indeed a hidden secret? ”

"Well, yes, and I've re-found my bearings."

Sasuke took a deep breath.

"But I'll have to wait until I get back to that world to investigate."

"Will it be dangerous?"

"Yes, it's dangerous."

"Then you ......"

"I don't care, and even if there is danger, there are some things that I have to do, and this is already related to the meaning of my life."

"Okay."

Paimon nodded.

"But you must watch yourself, or I am afraid that one day you will suddenly disappear and no longer come to us...... In this world, Paimon will be alone again......"

"Well, I will."

"By the way, the intelligence officer in front of me gave me a clue about the ruins of Arcadia, can you continue to explore in your current state? Why don't we go back and get some rest? ”

"No, I'm fully recovered, let's continue."

Sasuke took the clue from Paimon.

The image attached to the clue shows a treasure chest, followed by the Aeolus Statue, an iconic building in Mondstadt.

The chest is located right inside Mondstadt, and it's on a high vantage point, with many rooftops of buildings visible.

"By the way, that Vera also said something, what three heads and six arms, what is the city in the lake...... But I was so anxious that I didn't remember it at all. ”

"In the city of the lake, there are three giants with six arms. Two guard the idols and one guard the treasures of the gods. ”

Sasuke spoke.

"It's okay if you don't remember, it's written on the clue."

"Oh oh, that's good, I almost thought it was bad."

Paimon nodded like a small kun pecking rice.

"Hmm...... I finally got the clues, why do I have to guess the riddle. ”

Sasuke didn't answer.

He has a very good memory, and his few days in Mondstadt have made him imprint the buildings in Mondstadt in his mind, and the location marked on the picture is inside Mondstadt.

The riddle, the city in the lake, is clearly talking about Mondstadt, and the three six-armed giants are supposed to be referring to the three huge windmills with six doors in Mondstadt.

Sasuke hadn't seen a windmill before, so he remembered those windmills vividly.

Two windmills are near the Aeolone, and the so-called treasure is near the other windmill.

This kind of puzzle is cute and cute Paimon or Naruto is okay, and it doesn't work for him.

It's just that how could a pirate hide a treasure in such a place?

This clue was obviously given by Kaeya, including this so-called treasure that was completely hidden by Kaeya himself.
