If one can reshape the weather of a region…
Then yes, that is godlike power."
Even Lisa's normally calm face turned grave.
As the Head Librarian, she knew her history well.
And because she knew, she was even more shaken.
In Teyvat, the Seven Archons were beings of unimaginable power.
Like:
Barbatos, who swept away the eternal snow from Mondstadt,Morax, who sealed demon gods with a single spear,Raiden Ei, who split Yashiori Island in half with a single strike.
But these gods had all climbed to their thrones through brutal wars and cataclysmic events.
And now—someone was gaining comparable power…
By reading manga?
Even if it wasn't equal to the Archons,
it already far surpassed what a normal Vision bearer could achieve.
Lisa couldn't help but glance around the shop.
Just what kind of place is this manga store?
A thought surfaced in her mind—an unsettling yet thrilling possibility.
Meanwhile, in the corner, the Lady was also inwardly shaken.
Though she pretended to be calm, she had clearly overheard everything.
Barbara's freezing aura, the discussion of Ice-Ice Fruit powers,
even Lisa's assessment of their divine potential.
This must be reported to Her Majesty at once.
There's no doubt—Her Majesty will be interested.
If every citizen of Snezhnaya could acquire such power…
Then the Tsaritsa's dream of reshaping the world—
Might actually be within reach.
After a long breath to steady herself, Lisa turned to examine her own reward.
A rectangular object now sat on her lap—its shell colored in alternating shades of green and yellow.
"This is… Koushiro's laptop?"
Lisa recognized it immediately.
While reading Digimon Adventure, she had paid special attention to that character.
Whenever Taichi and the others were in trouble,
Koushiro would always dive into his computer and uncover crucial info.
That seemingly ordinary laptop had saved their team time and time again.
Could this one hold the same power of knowledge?
"Yes," Han Feng nodded.
"It contains detailed data on the Digimon world."
As he spoke, he even demonstrated it for her.
After all, this world didn't have laptops—most people had never seen one before.
"There's quite a bit of content here."
Lisa scrolled through screen after screen of detailed Digimon entries, her interest steadily rising.
She had already found Digimon fascinating while reading the manga.
Their elemental attributes, evolution pathways, and battle styles had caught her eye.
And now, with this laptop, she could study it all in detail.
From basic evolution, to super evolution, to ultimate evolution—
Everything she needed to understand the Digimon world was at her fingertips.
"Right—this laptop does have limited battery,"
Han Feng added as a reminder.
Unlike the camera that Paimon received—
which had been modified to have infinite storage and battery life—
this laptop was a more ordinary item.
It hadn't been enhanced by the system.
So if Lisa wanted to make the most of it,
She'd have to manage its power carefully.
"Electricity?"
Lisa blinked adorably.
So computers needed electricity to run?
Well... she had plenty of Electro energy, didn't she?
Maybe if she just infused a little into it...
That would work, right?
After she voiced her idea, Han Feng's expression turned a bit odd.
Wait a second... she's actually going to charge it with Electro?
Honestly?
That might... actually work.
Elemental energy wasn't something conventional science could explain anyway.
After receiving their rewards, Lisa and Barbara left the manga shop fully satisfied.
One left with digital knowledge from another world.The other left with terrifying elemental power and the ability to freeze anything.
Both had gotten rewards well-suited to them.
"Lisa, I'm heading out of the city for a bit. I won't return to the Knights right away."
As they walked out of the alley, Barbara spoke up.
"I'll come with you," Lisa replied.
Barbara had never been known for combat ability.
She was mostly assigned to logistics, healing wounded knights and citizens.
She rarely left Mondstadt at all.
Lisa was worried she might get into danger.
"No worries! I'm not the same as before," Barbara said proudly.
"Now I have the strength to protect myself!"
With the Ice-Ice Fruit in her grasp, danger no longer scared her.
"Ah—right. I almost forgot!"
Lisa tapped her forehead, a little annoyed at herself.
"In that case, go ahead. Just come back early."
Now that she understood how powerful Barbara's ability really was, Lisa was no longer concerned.
Honestly, the hilichurls should be the ones worried now...
"Hehe, thanks Lisa! See you later!"
With a cheerful wave, Barbara ran off toward the city gates.
"Then I'll head back to the Knights' HQ and dive into this data."
Lisa turned toward the Knights of Favonius' building, laptop in hand.
Not long after the two left, several unfamiliar figures appeared at the alley entrance.
"This is the place that bard mentioned, right?"
"Looks like it. I see the name Solace Book House on the sign."
"Finally! This place was a pain to find."
"Yeah, it's way too hidden!"
"Let's hope the manga's worth the hype—otherwise, this whole trip was a waste."
These newcomers had been lured in by none other than Venti's song.
Curious about the shop that supposedly gave out magical rewards for reading manga,
they had come to see it for themselves.
"C'mon, let's go in!"
Hearts pounding with excitement, the group pushed open the door and stepped inside.
