Genshin Impact: I'm The Envoy of Snezhnaya-Chapter 114: Do You Still Remember Osial?

Chapter 114 - 114: Do You Still Remember Osial?

This elegant woman was none other than Rex Lapis, the Geo Archon himself. Bai Luo had already pieced that together in his mind.

Honestly, in all of Liyue Harbor, how many people could carry a parasol adorned with Fangsheng patterns and wear a robe embroidered with dragon motifs? And then there were those diamond-shaped pupils unique to the Geo Archon. Who else could it be?

Rumors had long said that the Geo Archon often wandered among mortals in disguise. Bai Luo never expected that such "ordinary" appearances could lead to such an extraordinary presence.

It wasn't surprising that such rumors spread. Likely, whenever the Archon appeared, tavern or teahouse owners immediately recognized his unique traits but simply played along with his pretense.

"How's your recovery coming along?"

Walking in the rain, the Archon's words made Bai Luo stop in his tracks. He knew what the Archon's question implied—most likely, the Archon wanted to spar with him.

However, the Archon hadn't mentioned the "Fairy Glitter." Perhaps she deemed it unnecessary to ask.

"Dr. Bai's medical skills are unparalleled. I've almost fully recovered without any visible scars," Bai Luo replied.

This 𝓬ontent is taken from freeweɓnovel.cѳm.

Feigning injury again? He'd love to, but looking so full of energy made it hard to pull off.

No wonder the Archon appeared this way—it was likely to prevent Bai Luo from avoiding a fight under the guise of illness.

"About that contract..."

Sure enough, the Archon smiled and brought up the contract. No doubt, she had saved up quite a bit of elemental energy and was ready to unleash Vortex Vanquisher right from the start.

"The contract..."

Bai Luo's gaze wandered, looking around for a way out of the situation. But besides the rain, there was nothing else around.

Wait— Rain?

"Of course, I'd be honored. Truthfully, I've longed to battle you properly, to test the gap between myself and a god," Bai Luo said with a confident smile, radiating self-assurance as if ready to face the Archon head-on.

"Oh? Then shall we meet at the usual place?"

The Archon's curiosity was piqued by Bai Luo's inexplicable confidence. What gave him this assurance? Was it that radiant beam that pierced the heavens?

Indeed, the Archon admitted that light was worth noting, but it hardly counted as a trump card. Or did Bai Luo have even more hidden tricks?

Thinking of how Bai Luo could seamlessly shift his appearance, the Archon became more certain of her hunch.

"The usual place, then. But I'd like three days to prepare. Within three days, someone will be here. The Fatui always honor their word," Bai Luo said, looking into the Archon's diamond-shaped pupils with utmost sincerity.

However, given the Archon's understanding of Bai Luo, the sincerity was... questionable.

"Very well. The Fatui's reputation for keeping promises is, indeed, impeccable."

It might sound funny, but the Fatui were surprisingly reliable in this regard. They were even more trustworthy than Fontaine, which prided itself on justice.

If the Fatui said they'd destroy you, you'd be gone within three days. If they promised to leave you alone, the only way for you to see any trace of them is to actively seek them out..

Statistics showed that the least disputed business in Liyue was Northland Bank, with zero complaints filed.

"The Tsaritsa has proposed a contract with me."

As they walked, the Archon suddenly brought this up, making Bai Luo wonder how the Archon planned to use this to trap him.

Still, Bai Luo played along and said, "Regarding this contract, you'd best consult Childe. I'm responsible for Inazuma, after all."

"Inazuma? Quite the choice."

Though the Archon already knew Bai Luo was stationed in Inazuma, hearing him admit it still made the Archon give him a second look.

She knew Inazuma's situation better than most—its secrets and complexities. By difficulty level, it was undoubtedly a hellish start.

"Tell me about it. But I didn't exactly have a choice."

Bai Luo sighed deeply. The longer he stayed in Liyue, the more he liked it here—except for a few things: the Archon always looking to fight him, Baizhu eager to needle him, adepti ready to skewer him, Childe wanting a showdown...

Wait a minute. Maybe it was time to leave.

The more Bai Luo thought about it, the more he realized he'd managed to provoke every major figure in Liyue. Even the supposedly turbulent Inazuma now felt tranquil by comparison.

Teasing Kujou Sara, messing with Sayu, tormenting Kamisato Ayato... What could be better?

Hold on—what about the cat? Was it still stuck in the training ground tree? Could it have starved?

<+>

Beneath the sakura tree of Tenshukaku, a little white cat nibbling on dried fish suddenly sneezed. Kujou Sara, feeding the cat, looked concerned.

"Can cats catch colds?" she wondered aloud.

"Returning to the earlier topic, as a Fatui envoy, let me ask: if this nation were to lose its god's protection, what would happen?"

This time, the Archon didn't address Bai Luo by name but instead referred to his role. It was clear the Archon was now speaking on behalf of Liyue, addressing Bai Luo as an envoy of Snezhnaya.

"Times change, as do gods. Just as the Tsaritsa created us, perhaps you could try trusting them," Bai Luo said.

He understood that the Archon's hesitation didn't stem from reluctance to relinquish power. Even stone eventually erodes, and the Archon likely longed for retirement more than anyone.

However, whether Liyue was ready to adapt to a new era, free from its god's guidance, left the Archon deeply uncertain.

Like a parent watching their child, the Archon teetered between letting go and protecting. Liyue, sheltered under his wing, was that child.

"If you're truly worried, why not create an opportunity to observe? If it passes your test, you can fulfill the contract with the Tsaritsa without hesitation. If not, you can still use your divine power to help it through its trials, guiding it to maturity before presenting new challenges."

Bai Luo's words mirrored the Archon's own past actions, serving as a catalyst to reignite a long-buried plan.

"What kind of test would suffice?"

A staged trial with the adepti? No, that wouldn't work—they cared too deeply for Liyue to act convincingly.

Perhaps...

"Do you still remember Osial, whom you sealed?"

Watching the contemplative Geo Archon, Bai Luo offered a mysterious smile.
