Chapter 5 - Chapter 05

Mo Yue, who had just been scratching her head, now felt an even stronger urge to do so. What was this thing in front of her? Why did it look like a browser webpage she had seen before?

Honestly, Mo Yue really disliked situations like this suddenly appearing out of nowhere. It threw her thoughts into chaos, making it hard to think straight — or even perform normal tasks.

But what could she do? If she couldn't figure out who that voice belonged to or what their purpose was, she had no choice but to let it go.

With a resigned sigh, Mo Yue tentatively tried to interact with the webpage. And there it was — the preview Special Program she had been wary of.

This time, however, it wasn't a livestream. Instead, it was a video lasting over ten minutes.

Seeing her and Yelan's character illustrations in the program, Mo Yue clicked on it. In her mind, she thought… if this wasn't an ancient battlefield, it had to be a gathering of lunatics.

After all, every recorded livestream preview had a few crazy fans trying to act out their favorite characters.

Sure enough, when she glanced at the comments, they were already flooding with absurd messages.

[ "Count Rabbit": Amber is so cute!! Please be my wife! Step on me with your high heels!! ]

[ "Black-Skinned Enthusiast": Kaeya… hehe… my Kaeya… hehehehehe… ]

[ "Fragrant Armpit": Miss Yelan!!! Quickly! Tie me up hard!!! ]

Mo Yue's lips twitched uncontrollably as she read. It felt like déjà vu from a previous life.

But that was just the preliminary shock to her worldview. When she switched to "Sort by Time," her sense of reality completely collapsed.

[ "Cold Noodles Adorer": I adore Lady Mo Yue's gentle expression. I am your dog! Mo Yue, your art is too narrow-minded not to sell! Mo Yue must enter the gacha! If she doesn't, I feel unbearable! ]

[ "Mo Yue Solo Fan": Let me clarify: I am not gay. Secondly, I am not gay. Lastly… never mind, no last point. Lady Mo Yue!!! I want to be your dog!!! ]

[ "Mo's Yaoguang": This morning I weighed myself and lost two jin. Then I realized I forgot the collar Mo Yue gave me. Hehe, Mo Yue, my Mo Yue, hehe… ]

[ "Captain of Mo Yue Supporters": My Mo Yue obsession is at its worst! Lying in bed, chanting sutras desperately, clawing at my own eyes. I think of Mo Yue when I sleep, when I bathe, when I go out, when I walk, when I ride, when I work, when I use my phone. Every night my eyes burn, I go mad wanting to see Mo Yue, I want to see her hard, my eyes can't take it… Mo Yue! My Mo Yue! ]

[ "I am Mo Yue's dog!": Mo Yue… (drooling) Mo Yue… hehe, Mo Yue… my Mo Yue… ]

Mo Yue couldn't hold it in any longer. In the past, she would watch fans go crazy over a character and laugh — sometimes even join in.

But now? She was the target of their obsession.

Her emotions weren't just turbulent — they exploded instantly.

She had no idea what she'd done to trigger these fans' bizarre desires, though she had to admit… her illustration really did look good.

Though it might sound like boasting, the fact remained.

But Mo Yue really couldn't continue reading any longer. If she did, she felt she might have to dig a hole and bury herself to escape the madness.

Another worry crept in: After this, will my innocence be gone once I return?

At that thought, she shook her head violently, muttering to herself:

"No, no… I can't think about this anymore. I need a distraction… I can't take it."

Forcing herself calm, Mo Yue paused to consider what she should focus on next.

Right… after that entity returned Nibelung's thing to me… how am I supposed to use it?

She stroked her chin, thinking deeply. This was important.

And is this… part of that "compensation"? Or is it some cruel joke from the owner of that voice?

As she pondered, someone from the General Affairs Department outside tapped on the carriage door.

"Lady Mo Yue, we're about to reach Liyue Harbor. Miss Ganyu is waiting for you at the city gate."

Snapped out of her thoughts, Mo Yue shook her head and said,

"Alright, I understand."

She sighed, muttering under her breath:

"Ningguang… what will you have me discuss this time?"

She knew well that news of her return to Liyue had already been spread by Ningguang. Once she returned, any updates Mo Yue had kept would also be sent out, effectively increasing her own fame…

She sighed again, muttering:

"Better figure out how to use this thing first… How did I even trigger it just now?"

Carefully recalling her actions, the only reliable one seemed to be a simple wave of her hand.

She tried it. With a slight upward wave, the webpage disappeared. Another wave, and it reappeared.

Ah, it's motion-activated… she thought.

Now… how do I retrieve the authority belonging to the Seven Archons?

Based on her understanding of Genshin's story, the other Archons would eventually hand over their Gnosis to the Cryo Archon, Tsaritsa. That meant… she had to get the Gnosis before the Fatui.

Mo Yue rubbed her temples, a headache forming, but she already had a plan.

"First, I'll see what Ningguang wants. If I need to go out, Zhongli will have to wait. I'll take care of this first, then confirm with him how to use it later."

"If not… I can use the Lantern Rite as an excuse to visit Zhongli. A proper courtesy for a junior."

With that resolved, Mo Yue lifted the curtain and spoke to the attendant outside:

"Mr. Qin Mo, I might trouble you again later. I'll need to meet Ningguang about the follow-up matters. If it gets late, please inform my family."

The attendant, Qin Mo, was slightly taken aback but nodded.

"Don't worry, I'll make sure the message gets delivered."

"Thank you."
