The Truth About the "God Creation" Plan
After hearing Luo Chen's explanation, the audience finally understood how the God Creation Project actually worked.
It was not just the Akademiya acting alone.
Three forces were involved.
The Akademiya — seeking a new God of Wisdom
Il Dottore (The Doctor) — pursuing his own research
Scaramouche — the vessel capable of holding a Gnosis
Each had their own motives.
And so the collaboration was formed.
Tenshukaku — Inazuma
After hearing this, everyone in the room slowly turned toward Ei.
She was eating dango.
Ei blinked twice, then quietly lowered the dango stick.
Makoto spoke first.
"Ei… why did the puppet you created become a Fatui Harbinger?"
Ei scratched her head awkwardly.
"I… don't know."
"When I created him, I felt he was too fragile."
"But when I saw him cry, I couldn't bring myself to destroy him."
"So I left a gold ornament beside him and allowed him to continue sleeping."
"Perhaps he awakened later."
Makoto nodded thoughtfully.
"So something must have happened after he woke up."
Yae Miko sighed.
"I told you to destroy that puppet back then."
"And now look."
"He almost became the God of Wisdom in Sumeru."
Ei fell silent.
After a moment she spoke.
"…Then I'll deal with it myself."
"Since I created him, I'll bring him back."
Lightning flickered.
Ei disappeared from Tenshukaku.
The Chat Reacts
Lumine:
"Wait… the god they wanted to create was Ei's puppet??"
Paimon:
"That's insane!"
Alice laughed.
"One puppet ruined Inazuma's governance."
"And another almost became a god in Sumeru."
Venti suddenly declared seriously:
"I've figured it out!"
"This was Beelzebul's grand strategy!"
Everyone stared.
Venti continued dramatically.
"By sending Scaramouche to Sumeru, she could control two nations!"
"Inazuma and Sumeru would surround Liyue!"
"Then she could conquer the rest of Teyvat!"
Silence.
Everyone stared at him.
Then Ei replied.
"Don't listen to him."
"He's drunk."
Ei Apologizes
Ei turned toward Nahida in the chat.
"@Nahida"
"I'm sorry."
"My mistake caused trouble for you."
Nahida replied warmly.
"It's alright, Lady Beelzebul."
"If needed, I may ask for your help."
Ei nodded.
"Of course."
Then she tagged someone else.
"@Scaramouche"
"You're still in Inazuma, aren't you?"
No response.
Ei sent another message.
"If you won't answer, that's fine."
"I'll find you soon."
Scaramouche felt a chill run down his spine.
The Electro Archon was personally coming to capture him.
He ran.
Immediately.
Meanwhile — Fatui Reactions
Signora laughed wildly in chat.
"Oh, what a wonderful day."
"You mocked me before, didn't you?"
"Now look at you."
Childe added:
"Welcome to the fugitive club."
"Don't worry."
"Running from Archons builds character."
Scaramouche ignored them.
He ran faster.
Back to the Livestream
Luo Chen continued explaining.
After forming their alliance, the Akademiya began constructing a mechanical divine body.
Scaramouche would become its core.
But the god creation process required immense computational power.
So they turned to something else.
Dreams.
Specifically—
The Sabzeruz Festival.
The 168 Loops
Originally, the Sabzeruz Festival celebrated Greater Lord Rukkhadevata's birthday.
After her death, it became Nahida's birthday festival.
However, as Nahida faded from public view, most people stopped celebrating it.
Only the people of The Grand Bazaar kept the tradition alive.
In the original timeline—
The festival repeated 168 times.
Each time the same day reset.
Why?
Because the Akademiya used the Akasha System to harvest dreams.
Dreams were converted into processing power.
This massive calculation supported the God Creation Project.
Luo Chen explained further.
Long ago, Rukkhadevata created the Akasha system to gather human knowledge and combat forbidden knowledge.
Back then, the purpose was noble.
But after her death—
The Akademiya hijacked the system.
They continued harvesting dreams.
Even convincing the people that not dreaming was a sign of rationality.
In truth—
Their dreams were being stolen.
Sumeru Citizens Realize the Truth
The ordinary chat exploded.
People were furious.
Citizen:
"Our dreams were stolen?!"
Another:
"They told us not dreaming meant we were rational!"
Another:
"Rukkhadevata did it to save the world tree!"
"But what right does the Akademiya have?!"
More voices joined.
Then Dunyarzad spoke.
"The Akademiya is corrupt."
"Only Lesser Lord Kusanali protects us."
"Help her."
Rahman added:
"Even a desert man like me can see this injustice."
"You ignored her for 500 years."
"Will you continue?"
The citizens fell silent.
Then something changed.
People began leaving their homes.
One by one.
They walked toward the Akademiya.
The tide had begun turning.
Sanctuary of Surasthana
Nahida clenched her fists.
"They used the Sabzeruz Festival…"
"They endangered my people."
Her voice trembled with anger.
Lumine sighed.
"The desire to create a god made them lose all restraint."
Paimon asked quietly:
"So… what will you do?"
Nahida raised her head.
Her expression hardened.
"I will hold a public trial."
"I will learn from Fontaine."
"I will learn from Neuvillette and the Hydro Archon."
"I will judge the Akademiya in front of all Teyvat."
"They will answer for their foolish actions."
Lumine smiled.
"Then go ahead."
"We'll support you."
Paimon nodded.
"After all…"
"You appointed the Traveler as your first Sage."
Nahida smiled softly.
"Yes."
"My first Sage."
"With you here…"
"I'm not alone."
