Elysia did what she said and took out her phone to send a video call to Nahida.
When the call connected, Elysia smiled and said:
"Nahida, I'm here to play with you."
"I've already arrived at Sumeru City."
Elysia was very happy.
She told Nahida her current location.
Hearing Elysia's words, Nahida blinked.
"You came to Sumeru?"
Nahida was a little puzzled.
Why did she suddenly come here?
But soon, Nahida remembered what she had said to Elysia before.
She had invited her to visit.
So… was Elysia taking it seriously now?
That actually seemed very possible.
Thinking of this, Nahida couldn't help smiling wryly.
It seemed that in the future, she needed to be more careful when talking to Elysia.
Otherwise, it might be taken seriously at any time.
"I'll come over right away."
"Wait for me for a moment."
"By the way, Elysia, who did you come with?"
Nahida was also a bit curious.
Elysia couldn't have come alone, right?
"Oh, with Takumi!"
Elysia turned her phone toward Takumi so Nahida could see him.
Seeing Takumi, Nahida immediately understood.
"Alright."
After hanging up, Nahida spoke to Buer.
"I'm going out for a while."
"Takumi is here."
Nahida and Buer were currently working together.
Hearing this, Buer was slightly surprised.
"Takumi came over?"
"Then remember to invite him properly."
Since Takumi had come to Sumeru, he should be treated well.
Nahida nodded to show she understood.
Then she left immediately.
Leaving the Sanctuary of Surasthana, Nahida used the teleport waypoint and arrived at Sumeru City.
After arriving, she paused briefly and locked onto Takumi's position.
For Nahida, finding Takumi was very easy.
His aura was like a blazing sun.
Even without focusing, she could clearly sense where he was.
So Nahida headed straight toward him.
Sumeru City was very lively.
Because it bordered Liyue, and the construction of The Chasm had been completed,
the commercial atmosphere here was extremely strong.
Because of this, Sumeru attached great importance to this area.
It had already become a very important economic center.
Takumi and Elysia also noticed how busy Sumeru City was.
Construction was ongoing in many areas.
Merchants and vehicles constantly moved in and out.
"It's so lively!"
"This place is really nice."
Elysia was very satisfied with the atmosphere.
She liked crowded places.
Seeing this scene made her extremely happy.
Hearing her words, Takumi smiled.
"It's normal for it to be lively."
"It changes every day here."
"After some time, you probably won't recognize it anymore."
"Those wooden houses will likely be demolished and rebuilt."
"It's just that the new city isn't finished yet."
That was correct.
A new city was being built next to Sumeru City.
Many buildings had already been completed.
The main road led directly to The Chasm.
Because the current city was no longer sufficient,
and many houses were old,
Buer chose to rebuild them.
Many construction materials were still being transported from other nations.
Elysia nodded after hearing Takumi's explanation.
She had noticed it as well.
"Mr. Takumi?"
While they were chatting, a voice suddenly reached them.
Hearing someone call him, Takumi was slightly surprised.
Turning around, he saw a girl approaching happily.
Wasn't this Dehya Zubayr?
"Dehya Zubayr!"
"It's been a long time."
Takumi was also surprised to see her.
She was the girl Nilou once asked him to save.
They had met a few times afterward,
but later became busy and lost contact.
Takumi still remembered Dehya clearly.
"Why didn't Mr. Takumi inform us in advance when you came to Sumeru?"
"So I could properly host you."
Dehya came over, looking a little helpless.
Coming over without any notice was really unexpected.
She should have prepared something.
"No need."
"I came to play with her today."
"So there's no need for such formality."
"By the way, let me introduce her. This is Elysia."
Takumi shook his head and introduced Elysia.
At this moment, Elysia was also observing Dehya.
She looked like a nice girl.
"Hello, Miss Elysia."
"I'm Dehya Zubayr. Please take care of me."
Dehya looked at the pink-haired girl beside Takumi.
She was quite surprised.
This must be Mr. Takumi's companion.
"Hello!"
"It's nice to meet you. Please take care of me!"
Elysia greeted Dehya cheerfully.
Judging by Elysia's manner of speaking,
Dehya felt she should be easy to get along with.
Thinking this, she smiled and chatted with her.
While the three were talking, Nahida finally arrived.
"Sorry to keep you waiting."
"Dehya, you're here as well."
Nahida's voice sounded.
Hearing the familiar voice, Dehya quickly greeted her.
"Lady Nahida!"
Hearing this, Nahida sighed helplessly.
"I've said it many times, Dehya."
"You don't need to be so formal."
"It's fine if we get along like ordinary friends."
Nahida was quite helpless.
She had told her many times not to be nervous around her.
But Dehya never listened.
Every time, she was extremely respectful.
This made Nahida a bit reluctant to meet her.
"This won't do."
"Even though Lord Rukkhadevata has returned,"
"Lady Nahida, you are still the Dendro Archon of Sumeru."
As a believer of the Dendro Archon, Dehya could not allow herself to be casual.
Hearing this, Nahida immediately gave up.
"Alright."
"Do as you wish."
She was too lazy to argue further.
No matter what she said, Dehya wouldn't listen.
Just as she finished speaking, Elysia suddenly hugged Nahida.
"Whee!"
"Nahida, I came to play with you!"
"Are you happy?"
Elysia lifted her up directly.
This made Nahida even more helpless.
