Chapter 7 Witch of Fire
The Flame Witch's
overfed former Vulcan returned to Mondstadt the next day, bringing with him the fine wines given to him by Master Cripps, including non-alcoholic apple wine, dandelion wine and wine.
We happened to meet Wendy and Traveler who were eating at the Deer Hunter restaurant.
"Good morning, Traveler, Paimon, and Wendy." Phoenix naturally placed half of the wine in front of Wendy, as if he had brought it specially for him.
"Arvid, my friend, without you, the best bard in the world would not be able to sing happy songs." Wendy hugged the bottle with a face full of satisfaction, already immersed in fantasy.
Phoenix sat down and looked at the traveler who was hesitant to speak. The dark green eyes of the blond boy made someone feel a little bit guilty.
"Arvid, do you know my sister?" the traveler asked directly.
Phoenix nodded readily, "I know her."
"Then where is she now?" Kong asked quickly.
However, Phoenix did not answer, just smiled and shook his head silently.
"Do you not know? Or you can't tell?" The traveler continued to ask nervously without giving up.
Phoenix answered readily this time, saying, "I won't tell you until that day."
He knew nothing less than Wendy, or even more.
Before the battle in Kanria, he had sang, danced and laughed with the blond girl by the campfire. To this day, that was still a time he cherished greatly.
However, the destruction of Kanrya changed everything. As a ruler and the god of Nata, there was no way he could stand on Kanrya's side.
Kanria prayed to the abyss for the power to resist the laws of nature, but ignored the price that needed to be paid.
The traveler stopped questioning. He looked into those red eyes. He saw too many complicated emotions on that face that rarely showed a smile.
"Martha, a grilled chicken skewer with mushrooms!"
Phoenix smiled again, as if the expressionless god just now didn't exist, and the upward curve of the corners of his eyes covered up the sharpness of his facial features.
"Traveler, why don't you continue asking?" Paimon asked softly, his little face full of confusion.
The traveler shook his head, "I don't know, Paimon, I don't know, but no matter what, I will find my sister and get the truth about the world from her."
If you make a mistake, correct it if necessary. He will not back down from the fight.
"No matter what happens, I will be with you." Paimon put his hands on his hips and puffed up his chest proudly.
"Thank you, Paimon."
Phoenix held his head and looked at the blond boy interacting with Paimon, a look of nostalgia flashing in his eyes.
If the blond girl corresponds to the Traveler, is the Sword of End Light of Camrea the corresponding Paimon? How could there be such a big Paimon?
"I always feel like you're thinking about something rude." Pamon put his hands on his hips, shuddered, and looked at Phoenix, who was looking at them with a smile.
Phoenix raised his voice, "How could -"
He changed the subject, "Speaking of which, what are you going to do next?"
The traveler took a look and drank a whole bottle of dandelion wine, lying on the table in confusion. Wendy, who was asleep, said helplessly, "We are going to return the Sky Piano."
Phoenix blinked, "The Sky Piano?"
Wendy jumped up and sat up in her dying illness, grabbing Phoenix's hand. Hand, "My friend, you must help me."
"Ah..." Phoenix sneered, looking at the three people with guilty conscience written on their faces, he almost guessed it.
"Can it still be repaired?"
In a remote corner, Wendy took out the lyre with broken strings, rubbed her hands awkwardly, and watched her red-haired friend turn over the lyre.
"This is too completely damaged." Phoenix sighed. Half of the strings were broken, and the wooden body was cracked and even a piece was broken.
"Is there no other way?" Paimon asked, feeling a little sad.
Phoenix thought about it carefully, "It's not impossible, but you need to ask Tevarin for a scale."
The traveler nodded, but was still a little confused, "Aren't you coming?"
Phoenix shook his head helplessly. He shook his arms and saw that his arms were wrapped in layers of bandages under the wide sleeves.
"I still have things to deal with."
Dragons' senses are much more sensitive than humans. Phoenix can hide the traces of erosion by the abyss on his body to avoid being discovered by humans, but he cannot hide it from the dragon's perception.
In addition, the seven elemental dragons each have their own territory. Although he is not an elemental dragon, there will not be much difference in Tevalin's eyes now.
It was easy to be regarded as an enemy, and then a fight would inevitably occur. He didn't like this kind of completely unnecessary fight.
After seeing off the travelers and others, Phoenix was still sitting in the Deer Hunter restaurant, waiting for an uninvited guest.
The lady in red wearing high heels was wearing a half-mask. Shi Shiran sat down on the seat in front of Phoenix, one of his exposed eyes was full of sarcasm.
"Don't try to hinder me, the widowed king who is hanging out with Barbatos and abandons his people."
The lady didn't care about the identity of the person in front of her. After all, no matter what, he was just an ordinary person without the eyes of God.
She just wants revenge!
"You really dare to say that."
Phoenix responded with a smile. There was no wave in his beautiful red eyes, which could even be called cold.
Under normal circumstances, Phoenix has a good temper. After all, there are many types of people in the world. There is no shortage of idiots in any country, and he doesn't have time to argue with them one by one.
Rather than showing off his power, he prefers to treat himself as a human being and participate in the lives of his people. An ordinary human being would not beat or kill someone just because of a few words of blame.
However, she was the first one to dance in front of him so arrogantly despite knowing the power gap between them. Did she really think that there was nothing he could do with the Ice God standing behind her? Yet?
Phoenix didn't understand very much, especially since he felt extremely violent flames from the other party's body that could get out of control at any time. It could even be said that the humanoid body in front of him was filled with flames of revenge.
"Are you resentful? Why? Because you lost your lover? Because Barbatos failed to save everyone? Or, because of your cowardice."
"Answer me, Rosalind!"
That was her past that was burned away by the flames The name taboo is the embers left in the eternal flame.
Like thunder exploding in her ears, the lady stood up instantly, and even overturned the chair behind her in a panic, making a loud noise.
Fortunately, it was not dinner time yet, and only Sarah was busy in the Deer Hunter Restaurant, so only she and Margaret across the road glanced at them.
Seeing the fool's attire on the lady's body, the two quickly lowered their heads and continued to do their own things.
"Who is Rosalind?" As soon as the lady finished speaking, the pause button seemed to be pressed. Frost instantly covered her face, then her arms, body, and even her whole body was covered in frost.
The lady just fell unconscious.
Phoenix walked lazily to her side, squatted down, and the tiny flames on his fingertips slowly came closer to the lady's mask.
"Buzz..."
The sound that came from nowhere was accompanied by a layer of frost that suddenly thickened, seeming to be very resistant to Phoenix's touch.
"You're not the only executive, so why are you so concerned." Phoenix lazily raised his eyelids and retracted his index finger, as if he was just joking.
But perhaps only he and the person opposite knew that such a tiny flame was even enough to kill a dragon in the past.
Phoenix tilted his head and "listened" carefully, nodding from time to time.
"Well, for the sake of Wuliang Tower, just this once, even I, the widowed king who is said to have abandoned my people, will be angry."
Phoenix smiled, looking at the lady who slowly opened her eyes, and faced Seeing the fear in her eyes, he just smiled.
"Remember to be gentle. Barbatos doesn't care, but I still care."
Phoenix patted the non-existent dust on his body, stood up, and disappeared in the blink of an eye, not forgetting to disperse before leaving. the nearby barrier.
