Paimon was completely stunned. Just now, she only felt Takumi toss her into some mysterious place. Before she even had time to look around, she was let out. Was this really another world already? "No elemental energy at all... But there's still a powerful force here!" The moment Lumine arrived, she could feel how different this world was. She couldn't sense the elements anymore, but she could still use power. When she tried, this world's energy would replace her elemental energy—and she even noticed, keenly, that the energy inside her was beginning to change, transforming into the kind of power Takumi's world used. Hearing Lumine's comment, Takumi explained with a smile, "That's the power of my world. Once all the energy in your body finishes converting, your strength will reach a whole new level!" "Think of it as a perk for visiting my world," he added, unable to hide his grin. Lumine nodded. "Alright! But it's kind of slow, though." She clicked her tongue in slight annoyance. "If you don't want to wait, just find somewhere to let all your energy out at once. Then, what returns will be Honkai energy." Takumi gave Lumine a helpless look. If she disliked the slow process, there was a workaround—just empty all her energy and let it replenish itself. That's what the magical girl squad had discovered. "Got it!" Lumine nodded, quietly noting this advice and saying no more. Next, Takumi handed out ID cards and a terminal to everyone. "Here, there's some money in these. You can explore my world and have some fun. The terminal is like a phone—you should know how to use it. Paimon, you get one too! But if you run out of money, you'll have to figure something out yourself~!" Takumi made sure everyone got a terminal and ID, then grinned as he warned them. Paimon was amazed. Out of everyone present, she was the only one who didn't know how to use this device. Liliya came out just then, and March 7th immediately greeted her with a happy wave. "Liliya! Long time no see!" Himeko had already introduced Liliya to March 7th—queen of the magical girls next door, and Takumi's woman, a fact March 7th remembered well. "Entanglement spirit... March 7th!" Liliya almost blurted out the nickname, but quickly changed her tone. March 7th pouted. "I'm not some entanglement spirit! That's just too much! What does that even mean? I asked Sister Himeko, but she won't tell me!" "Oh, right—Takumi, could you tell Sister Himeko for us? We'll be playing here for a few days before heading back." She and the others had no way to contact Himeko directly, so she had to ask Takumi to pass along the message. "Sure, I'll let her know later. If you need anything else, just ask Prometheus." Takumi didn't mind—it was just a quick word. March 7th nodded and called for Stelle and Lumine to head out, ready to go explore the city below. Lumine glanced at Takumi without saying anything and quietly followed. She was extremely curious about Takumi's world—a place that had fused with several other worlds, even connecting to others beyond. It sounded fascinating. Rumor had it there was tons of great food, too. Now that she wasn't hunting for her brother, Lumine felt zero pressure. Since she was already here, she might as well enjoy herself. If this place suited her, maybe she'd settle down in Takumi's world and travel to other worlds from here—no worries about getting blocked by some god. So, Takumi's world sounded pretty good. As for her brother... Teyvat was already about to collapse. She could always go back and beat up her brother before dragging him here when the migration started. Come to think of it, she'd forgotten to tell him. Her brother was probably tracking her every move, so he must be baffled by her sudden disappearance. Maybe he'd run around the world looking for her. Oh well, let him worry for once. He could look all he wanted. Feeling very much at ease, Lumine went off to play. That night, Zhongli finished his preparations and sent Ningguang over. Takumi received the spatial bracelet and quickly released Ningguang and the others. This time, Zhongli had sent over at least ten thousand people—along with plenty of Millelith soldiers, plus both Ningguang and Keqing. And—Hu Tao! Takumi was surprised to see Hu Tao. "You came too, Hu Tao?" Hu Tao planted her fists on her hips, glaring at Takumi, fuming. "Hmph! You and Zhongli teamed up to trick me, huh? He's been the Geo Archon this whole time and you never told me?!" She was truly furious. After digging up her family's ancestors, she'd happily run back, ready to work things out with Zhongli. And what did she see? Ningguang and Keqing addressing Zhongli as "Lord Archon" with full respect. Can you imagine how bad that felt? All these years, she'd been raising a "good-for-nothing freeloader," and he turned out to be the Geo Archon? (?へ?╬) At that moment, Hu Tao honestly wanted to set Zhongli on fire. It was too much. The Great Emperor Zhongli—coming to her house to eat her food, use her things, and then give her all his bills? Who wouldn't be confused? You're the Archon! The god of wealth! And you were mooching off me? Hu Tao's sudden arrival left Zhongli a bit speechless, but he didn't say much. He just quietly sent her along with the rest. "Huh? You know now?" Takumi was surprised at Hu Tao's reaction. "Of course I know! Ningguang and Keqing were both calling him Lord Archon!" Hu Tao rolled her eyes. She wasn't stupid—why else would the Qixing suddenly call Zhongli by his godly title? "I see. Well, you shouldn't be mad. When you think about it, your background is pretty incredible, isn't it? All your martial skills were taught by Zhongli. He raised you, too. In our world, that makes you a real Liyue princess~!" Hu Tao thought about it and had to agree—it was true. Everything she knew, she'd learned from Zho
