"If you landed from Koseki Village, then you should have already seen the difference between Koseki Village and the other islands."
"Yes, one side is green and the other is purple."
The Traveler naturally noticed the differences on Seirai Island, as the difference between purple and green was quite significant.
"Green is the result of me cleaning up the pollution, while purple is the polluted area. Those lands, after being polluted, will be filled with a large amount of electro element, making it very difficult for crops to grow, and even if they do, they won't be edible."
"Furthermore, people who live in such places for a long time will also get sick. In short, to restore Seirai Island to its prosperity of a thousand years ago, the effects caused by the Thunderbird must be completely eliminated."
Shiki briefly explained to them, though it was mainly for Xinyan. The Traveler, having gone through the incidents with Havria and karma, already understood the electro archon's residue very well.
So when she heard Shiki mention pollution, she already had an answer in her mind.
Even the weakest Archon possessed an immense amount of energy. Even Havria, upon her death, turned all the people in an entire city into salt statues.
"Do you need help?"
"No, you are here to travel, not to help. Small matters are fine, but leave these troublesome things to us," Shiki shook her head.
She wasn't like those big babies in Mondstadt who needed the Traveler and Jean to help with everything, just slacking off all day.
Both situations involve help, but Inazuma is short on manpower, while Mondstadt is purely unwilling to do things themselves.
For example, in Jean's Story Quest, Mondstadters bothered Jean with everything, even things they could easily do themselves, they just had to bother others.
Like finding cats, sweeping fallen leaves, and so on.
Asking Jean to help you find a cat, what is that called?
It's like Ningguang washing vegetables for Chef Mao at Wanmin Restaurant! Shiki forging iron for Amenoma Tougo!
She really wanted to ask, do you all not have hands? Or did your legs disappear?
It's understandable if Glory, who is blind, can't see things, but why does your Favonius Church need others to sweep fallen leaves?
And Inazuma? Yes, Raiden Ei is stubborn, the Kanjou Commission and Tenryou Commission are a mess, and the west is fighting Watatsumi Island.
But have you ever seen a daily commission that asks you to sweep fallen leaves?
The talking cat at Asase Shrine doesn't count, after all, cats don't clean.
Both are clergy, but Grand Narukami Shrine only asked the Traveler to find scattered omikuji on the rooftops.
It's understandable that shrine maidens in their outfits have difficulty moving and need help, but what about Mondstadt? There are fallen leaves at the entrance, and they just won't sweep them, they have to find someone to do it for free.
And speaking of the Ketsuroku Onmyou Bureau, the Traveler and the Shogunate have a cooperative relationship, not a one-sided effort.
The Traveler and her party entered the Domain to help Shiki Taishou regain control of the Onmyo Bureau, while Kujou Sara led the army to guard the outside to prevent monsters from escaping.
Both sides had clear divisions of labor, and Shiki even promised that the Traveler could take everything inside.
In other words, even without the Traveler, Kujou Sara would lead the Shogunate to gradually narrow the encirclement and completely resolve the Domain.
And not like the Mondstadters who just completely slack off and wait for others to help.
This Domain was the same. For Shiki, exploring it or not was just a matter of whether she wanted to. It was important to know that after the mountain peak fell, this Domain would be buried deep underground again.
If she didn't explore it, she would feel a bit uncomfortable, like a red dot on a game interface, annoying to look at.
But if she explored it, it would be very troublesome, after all, there was nothing she needed inside.
It was tasteless to eat but a shame to discard, and at this moment, the Traveler appeared. Shiki then went with the flow and entrusted this Domain to the other party, still the same, not wanting anything inside.
Through Shiki's series of reforms, Inazuma had gradually gotten on track, while Mondstadt was still slacking off. The entire nation relied on Jean and Godwin to support it, no wonder Mr. Godwin disliked the Knights of Favonius so much.
His father's death was one reason, and another was that they weren't doing anything productive!
It seemed that the Grand Master Varka wasn't much better, putting the heavy responsibility of governing the nation entirely on one person, which was simply outrageous.
You say you took the elite of the Knights on an expedition, but you should have left some capable people behind. And judging from that Godwin who was so concerned with his pride, were those you took really elites?
Did those kinds of people even deserve to be called elites? Not only did they fall behind, but because of that little bit of pride, they kept wandering around Windrise, and your blind girlfriend was still waiting for you!
There's no need to say how inconvenient a blind person's life is, right? Is your girlfriend not as important as that so-called pride?
No wonder he kept wandering around Windrise, after all, as a symbol of heroes, there are fewer monsters there, aren't there?
He probably would have died instantly if he went somewhere else, right?
The more Shiki thought about it, the angrier she got, and then the Traveler and Paimon saw the Young Miss's expression become increasingly ugly, until it was completely dark.
"Eh! Traveler… Did we say something wrong?" Paimon whispered.
"Probably… not? I just asked if she needed help…"
The Traveler was also a bit scared looking at the Young Miss's expression, but she shouldn't have said anything wrong. Why did she suddenly become so terrifying?
"Could it be? Is she thinking of something bad?"
"Maybe... I'm not sure. Paimon, let's go check out this Domain first!"
"Mm-hmm, good point. It's not safe to stay here for long!"
The Traveler pulled Xinyan towards the depths of Amakumo Peak and only let out a heavy sigh of relief after realizing Shiki hadn't followed.
"Whew... that really scared me."
"Indeed, I was also startled by Miss Ryougi's expression just now," Xinyan nodded.
"Sigh... now I just hope we didn't anger her, otherwise we're done for~"
"Be more confident, Traveler, it definitely wasn't us! Look, we didn't do anything, it must have been someone else!"
Although Xinyan said that, she wasn't entirely sure in her heart. For now, however, she could only believe in herself.
"Alright, in any case, let's first investigate this Domain."
Meanwhile, golden electric arcs flickered around Shiki, her short hair moving without wind under the influence of the thunder. Coupled with her extremely sullen expression, it felt as if a storm was brewing.
No, it wasn't a feeling, it was the truth.
The Thunderstorm, which had disappeared for less than half
