"Hmm? About my idol?"
Barbara blinked, puzzled.
Her idol wasn't an ordinary person—it was the great Anemo Archon Barbatos. How could Klee know the god's secret?
Hugging her Dodoco, Klee said excitedly, "Barbara, you know the bard who won Mondstadt's championship three years in a row?"
"Of course, the bard who loves apple cider," Barbara answered.
"Yep! That bard is Barbatos, the Anemo Archon!"
"???"
"!!!"
"???"
Barbara stared at Klee, stunned, her expression shifting from disbelief to existential crisis, and back.
The bard who busked for drinks in Mondstadt... was actually the Anemo Archon who had protected the city for over 2,000 years?
Barbara was shaken.
"That... that's impossible! Klee, you're making things up!"
Barbara couldn't accept it.
The great Barbatos should be an imposing figure, silently guarding Mondstadt—a symbol of faith.
Even if most Mondstadters couldn't recall his name, the spirit of freedom he represented was eternal.
No matter what,
Barbatos could not possibly be that drunken bard.
"It's true! I saw it on Daddy's computer... Uh, you don't know what a computer is, right? I'll show you tomorrow. There are files on everyone—Jean, Kaeya, Albedo, you... everyone!"
Klee recalled her own shock at discovering this.
So many questions for her little brain.
She never expected Mondstadt's Anemo Archon to be that drunken bard.
Barbara clutched her chest: "You should rest... I need to process this..."
Though she couldn't believe it,
Thinking of Klee's powerful dad, she found herself believing it might be true.
If it was...
"Oh no... has my faith been shattered?"
Barbara clutched her chest and ran out, needing to calm down.
Klee, not thinking too much, thought Barbara was just excited.
Looking forward to seeing Ken tomorrow, Klee soon drifted into a happy dream.
...
Blue Star.
After sending Klee off, Ken dealt with work emails before opening the system.
[Current bond partners: Klee (Father-daughter bond).]
[Bond Mode: Partners with a bond can, with the host's permission, summon a vortex portal by focusing their thoughts.]
[Current draws: 5.]
Looking over the system, Ken felt amazed.
He didn't expect the system could even do paternity tests—it confirmed his bond to Klee.
After Klee's visit, he got five draws.
He could get resources from Earth, Blue Star, or Teyvat, or his partners' abilities.
"Draw."
As he spoke, a giant cyan wheel appeared in the system.
It spun rapidly.
[Ding—]
[Congratulations! You received: Sweet Flower *5!]
[Congratulations! You received: Klee's C6 ability!]
[Congratulations! You received: Top Chef Skill!]
[Congratulations! You received: Mint *5!]
[Congratulations! You received: Fowl *5!]
Hearing the results, Ken was conflicted.
Hmm...
Klee's C6 skill was great, but the rest were... meh.
The system really knew how to troll Genshin players.
Nothing hurts more than getting Sweet Flowers and Mint.
As for chef skills, it was better than nothing.
He never aimed to be a chef, but with top skills, he could treat himself.
"System, what does Klee's C6 ability mean?"
Ken focused on Klee's skill—this was the real prize.
In-game, C6 is clear.
But in reality, it's a bit odd.
After all, real Klee didn't need to be whaled by players.
[C6 Ability: Klee's ultimate power. Klee is still growing and hasn't reached peak strength.]
So that's it...
Klee's growth is divided into six stages.
He didn't know what the system's ultimate peak meant, but it must be far beyond Klee's current power.
With these abilities, Ken felt...
Aside from being incredibly handsome, he now truly fit the image of Klee's father.
A family of three, all bomb experts.
