"Ryougi, see what these can be exchanged for… Eh? Is Miss Kamisato here too?"
Paimon felt something was off looking at the two sitting together, while the Traveler realized something and quickly pulled Paimon behind her, simultaneously taking out all the talismans collected from the Domain.
After all, she was someone who had traveled across many worlds, so how could she not know about yuri? These two exchanging glances clearly meant they had fallen for each other!
In some worlds, yuri was a love that broke societal norms and required the parties involved to bear immense psychological pressure, but the Traveler was not worried about this.
Who was Shiki? A Side Attendant to a deity! Afraid of pressure? Who would dare to give her pressure?
But now she needed to keep this matter to herself and just pretend she didn't know!
"Let me see…"
Shiki took the talismans and observed them carefully. To be honest, she no longer needed this item, as her essential purpose for Onmyōdō was for immortal arts.
And now that immortal power had been obtained, she planned to just glance at Onmyōdō, which originated from immortal arts, and there was no need to delve deeply into its research.
However, since she had already made the promise, the promised rewards would naturally still be given. Moreover, it was possible that these talismans could lead to some talismanic immortal arts.
Perhaps Tadatsune Harunosuke originally learned talismanic immortal arts?
"What do you want?"
"Mora? Primogem? element Crystal? Or the Crystalize of Inazuma sages' wisdom?" Shiki offered several options.
The so-called Crystalize of Inazuma sages' wisdom referred to the philosophies of "Transience," "Elegance," and "Light of Thunder," which contained some concepts of Inazuma's culture.
The Traveler didn't just simply look at the scenery; understanding the local culture was also an important part, which was why the Traveler needed to use three kinds of Talents books to upgrade skills in the game.
However, it was clear that among these four options, the Traveler would definitely choose…
"Primogem! Exchange all for Primogem!"
"…I knew it." Xinyan muttered, rubbing her forehead in resignation. As soon as she heard Primogem, she knew the Traveler wouldn't exchange for anything else.
Well, at least until all the Primogem were exchanged.
Honestly, she didn't understand why the Traveler wanted those cool-looking but actually useless little stones.
"Primogem? You can exchange these for three hundred. Let me tell you, I only prepared three hundred. No more."
"Only 300? It's fine, it's fine, there are other things we can exchange for!"
Upon hearing that Shiki had only prepared three hundred Primogem, the blonde girl's mood couldn't help but dip slightly, but she quickly cheered up. After all, the remaining items were also very useful!
Primogem was her primary way to recover her strength, but not the only one.
Moreover, what was the currency circulated on the continent of Teyvat? Mora! The Traveler, who had gone hungry due to currency issues more than once, knew how important Mora was in this world.
Paimon, upon hearing this, struggled out of the Traveler's hand and complained, "Hey! Traveler, why did you exchange everything for Primogem?!"
"Why didn't you exchange for Mora? What will Paimon eat without Mora?!"
"Paimon, you're so small, just eat some fruit." The Traveler said calmly. Just a mere Emergency Food.
"Hey!"
"Pfft… It's really interesting to watch you two bicker. Alright, anyway, the Mora is here and it won't run away. You can just come back and exchange it later." Xinyan said with a smile.
"Indeed." Shiki nodded. "Speaking of which, how dangerous is that Domain? But looking at you all, it shouldn't be particularly dangerous, right?"
Aside from a bit of dust on their clothes, the Traveler and her party were practically unharmed. It seemed that the Ketsuroku Onmyo Bureau had not generated overly powerful monsters due to being out of control.
Games are just games, after all, and there's still a difference from reality.
"Hehe, it can't stump us. Once we go in, we'll just kill everything!" Paimon put her hands on her hips, looking very proud.
But in the next second, that pride was shattered.
"You're responsible for the 'ga ga,' and the Traveler and Xinyan are responsible for the 'killing everything'?"
Paimon: "Hey! Miss Ryougi, are you being polite?!"
"And why are you only talking about me?! Didn't Shiki Taishou also follow behind?!"
Traveler: "He can apply buffs. Only you keep eating."
"Tra! Ve! Ler! How can you say that? I'm your best companion and the travel guide for the continent of Teyvat!"
"Oh, right, right…"
Lumine had completely given up. Not to mention Tadatsune Harunosuke, a figure from hundreds of years ago, just look at the one in front of her.
He also had a companion similar to Paimon, named Ioroi, a great yokai from ancient Inazuma. Although he wasn't very good at combat, he had various magical spells.
But what about Paimon? This Emergency Food only knew how to eat! One person could eat four or five portions of Sweet Madame! The key was, she didn't get fat!
Watching the two bicker, Shiki couldn't help but smile slightly. The scene before her reminded her of her initial feelings when she started playing allogene.
A Traveler stranded in another world, and a noisy little fellow flying in mid-air. She had laughed for a long time at the Emergency Food option back then.
But jokes aside, Paimon was still a good companion. She never abandoned the Traveler, even when facing opponents the Traveler couldn't easily defeat.
Knowing there was a risk to her life, she still stayed by the Traveler's side. Wasn't that worthy of praise?
But one thing was true: apart from that, Paimon really only ate. Perhaps the reason she stayed, even risking her life, was because she could eat?
No longer dwelling on that strange question, Shiki continued, "You should know Kujou Sara, the Shogunate General, right?"
"Know, know, the woman with wings." Paimon nodded.
"Good that you know. Kujou Sara has already deployed troops to Araumi. The army is not without Vision wielders. You can team up and go in together, which will greatly increase efficiency."
"Since you all came out unharmed, it means the Domain's danger level isn't very high. Vision wielders should be able to protect themselves once inside."
"Of course, those talismans are yours. They have no use for this item and won't take it." Shiki said.
The Traveler nodded upon hearing this: "No problem! But now the Ketsuroku Onmyo Bureau has rearranged the rooms, so we can't get in."
And Shiki Taishou said that this process would last for a full twelve hours, which means we won't be able to enter until this time tomorrow.
"That's right, this is something I only learned after recovering some of my memories," Shiki Taishou echoed.
