Primis: I see.
WHIR!!!
Suddenly there was a noise outside, Eula suddenly ran towards the window, which was at the end of the corridor, and looked outside.
Ever since Stormterror resurgence, Mondstadt's elemental sphere and ley lines were overflowed and unstable with its storms.
And now the grey clouds surrounding the Mondstadt dispersed and blue skies graced the City of Freedom once again.
Seeing this a beautiful smile emerged on Eula face as she nodded.
Eula: Looks like Traveler and Knights of Favonius successfully cut Stormterror's power from Four Winds' Temple.
CLICK!
Hearing the sound of the door closing, Eula looked back and saw that Primis had returned back to his room.
Eula: It seems that he wants to rest some more. Not surprisingly since I clearly noticed the tiredness still present in his eyes.

Closing the door, Primis walked to the bed, sat on it, and started rubbing the bridge of his nose.
"Primis: Let me ask you this. Is this Kaeya the one who told Lumine that he will station someone to guard me?"
"How did you---- Well, yes. It's him you assured Lumine about it."
"Primis: I call already imagine the look Lumine will give him once she will know it."
"Haha. Me too. By the way, Lord..."
"Primis: Hmm?"
"Are you okay? You appeared fatigued."
"Primis: Yeah. I am good."
"...If you say so."
Once System's Spirit became silent, Primis put his left hand at his left eye. Even though that eye of his was no longer glowing, indicating that his "Mystic Eye" was off, Primis still felt some irritation.
'Primis: Despite my mind being as big as a Universe after becoming "Guilty Crown", 99.9999% of it is currently being used to heal Inori and Mana. The remaining 0.0001% is not enough for me to open "Mystic eyes" on both eyes at the same time. Hence, I keep it with left one only.'
Sighing inwardly, he continued.
'Primis: Still, the stronger the person, the more taxing it is for me. I don't have any issue using it on that spider-like creature but when I use it on that massive life-form, it drained a lot out of me.'
He then stood up and his eyes narrowed.
'Primis: I must do something fast. Otherwise, I will have no choice but to sleep. And Beast II won't let go of that opportunity.'
GLEAM!
There was a blue flash and Primis disappeared from the room.

---Liyue---
Liyue was another one of the seven regions of Teyvat. It was the nation that worships Rex Lapis, the Geo Archon or God of Contracts.
Mountains stood tall and proud alongside the stone forest that together with open plains and lively rivers, made up Liyue's bountiful landscapes which showed its unique beauty through each of the four seasons.
GLEAM!
Primis showed up in the sky looking down at it.
"Uh…What are we doing here, My Lord?"
"Primis: I want to confirm something before to my main objective."
"Confirm what?"
"Primis: You will know."
"..."
'Primis: Now let's see whether there are more life forms like the one I see in Mondstadt.'
His gaze moved from one area of Liyue to the other one by one.
A minute later, he was done and put his hand on his chin.
'Primis: Alright, it seems that Liyue situation is even worse than Mondstadt. Hmmm...…'
Sensing something, he flew over to one of the subareas of Liyue, Guyun Stone Forest.
It was an archipelago of seven large islands and smaller offshoots.
According to legend, this was where Rex Lapis defeated a god and sea monster known as Osial, and the jagged cliffs protruding from the islands at Guyun were in fact the remnants of the stone lances he used in that battle.
It also seemed that those who spent the night at Guyun Stone Forest might experience Osial's memories of its defeat whether this was caused by Osial's power, or another phenomenon was unknown.
Primis of course saw Osial who was currently sealed and was in deep slumber in the very center of deep sea.
However, he also saw something which was residing even deeper.
'Primis: This makes things from worse to worst for Liyue.'
As he shook his head, Primis glanced back and sensed someone approaching his location.
"Looks like Geo Archon feels Lord's presence and is coming to investigate."
"Primis: Not that surprising since I wasn't trying to hide myself in the first place. In any case, I am done here."
GLEAM!
A blue flash and Primis left Liyue.
The moment he was gone, a man appeared and started looking around.
???: I am sure that I sensed someone here. He was moving his/her prying gaze all over Liyue as if trying to find something. He/She must be as strong as Adeptus to be able to accomplish that.
He then looked at the Guyun Stone Forest below.
???: Was he/she looking for Osial to undo his seal.
However, his thoughts were cut short as he saw some lights who were also making their way here.
???: Other Adepti sensed it too. Huh. Though they are a bit too late. That person is long gone now. I would have loved to investigate and find that person's trace, but I don't want to meet Adepti.
Sighing, the man also left before the Adepti could even see him.

---Inazuma---
An Isolated Archipelago Far East of Teyvat.
One must overcome endless thunderstorms to set foot on the islands of red maple and cherry blossoms.
On winding shores and towering cliffs, and in forests and mountains full of secrets, witness the Eternity pursued by Her Excellency, God of Thunder.
Region that that worships Raiden Shogun, the Electro Archon and God of Eternity.
GLEAM!
On arriving, Primis moved his prying gaze at everything and found the location of the lifeform.
He flew over to an area called Yashiori Island.
At some point within the last two thousand years, the island was attacked by an ancient god, Orobashi. This ancient dragon-like serpent god that was defeated by Raiden Shogun who used her strongest move to slay it.
Her divine judgement cleaved both the serpent and the island.
A curse had emerged from the serpent's remains from then on.
Even today, one can clearly see the head of the giant serpent laying in the very middle of the island. Nevertheless, only its weather-bleached remains were left now.
Although its skull still looked up at the sky defiantly, the god was already dead, and so the name of "Orobashi" was gradually being forgotten.
Even if the giant serpent was long dead, you can still clearly feel the traces of its power left behind. Under the influence of the curse energy, Yashiori Island had been deserted by its inhabitants. What can be seen on the island were just endless rain and thunderstorms trying to wash away the remnants of the past.
Primis landed on the island, in front of the skull.
The curse energy releasing from it had no effect on him as he approached and touched it.
When he did so, he could feel the curse energy entering inside and trying to corrode him. Too bad he was completely immune to it.
Primis was trying to find some remnant will of Orobashi that was still lingering inside.
WHIZ!!
WHISTLE!!
A sea breeze passed by through the eyes and fangs of the giant snake, the sound of whistling rang as a result. It was like a requiem it composed for itself. Though this requiem also provided for those who had fallen or were displaced in the war.
'Primis: There it is. Even if it just remaining lingering, its enough.'
Grabbing it, Primis threw it inside his "Pets" world.
'Primis: The rest is your work, Alaya, Gaia.'
He then removed his hand.
???: To be able to remain safe even in front of such concentrated cursed energy. You are more than what meets the eye. Mind sharing with me, what you were doing just now.
Looking back, Primis saw an unexpected visitor.
The person could be described as a slender figure and a beautiful face. He was short in height with indigo hair that covers his ears, as well as indigo eyes with bold red eyeliner.
His attire consisted of black shorts and black sandals, and a large hat with four upwards-curving hooks along the circumference, and what seems to be his mask on the center.
"One of the Eleven Fatui Harbingers. Huh."
"Primis: Yeah. The Sixth One. The Balladeer OR Scaramouche."
Scaramouche: What happened? Why do you become silent?
Primis: I don't have time to play with you kid. I have my matters to attend to.
Saying this, his feet left the ground.
Widened his eyes, Scaramouche realized Primis action and swiftly moved towards him.
Still, Primis was faster. He flew at an astonishing speed leaving Scaramouche and Yashiori Island behind.
Scaramouche could only stay on the spot and looked in the direction Primis disappeared to.
'Scaramouche: He can fly. Huh. Then he must be Adeptus or have some kind of artifact. Still, I never heard of such artifact that can let one fly that fast before.'
Scaramouche: Soldiers!
Three men dressed in black and with a mask appeared behind him from the shadows.
Fatui Soldier 1, 2 & 3: Sir!
Scaramouche: I want every intel on that person. Who is he? Where he is from? Where will he go? What he eats? Who are his companions? What is his power? Everything.
Fatui Soldier 1, 2 & 3: Yes, My Lord!
With this all three hurriedly left.
Scaramouche: Now then, should I report him to other Harbingers or investigate myself first?

"Next stop is Sumeru."
"Primis: It's not."
"N-Not?"
"Primis: There is one more thing I want. After that, we are returning to Mondstadt."
"What is that?"
"Primis: You will know."
"..."
Soon Primis reached his destination. Narukami Island.
His gaze was only at the largest shine of Inazuma. The Grand Narukami Shrine which was located at the peak of Mt. Yougou.
It was dedicated to Her Excellency, God of Thunder.
For those who have wishes, they can climb to the top of the mountain one step at a time. For those who have gained the favor of Electro, they can use the Thunder Spheres to fly up and reach the shrine surrounded by the huge Sacred Sakura Tree.
Primis found his target then space wrapped around him, and he disappeared.
WHIR!
.
.
.
---Grand Narukami Shrine---
WHIR!
Space wrapped again and Primis was now in the cave beneath the Shrine.
There was a mysterious gate in front of him.
Extended his hand, he touched it.
When he did so, a space-time portal appeared in front of him.
"Wait. Don't tell me Lord is here for---"
"Primis: The original Electro Archon."
'Primis: I can use her to solve my problem.'
Closing his eyes, he concentrated to find the correct location of her consciousness.
And then…
'Primis: There you are.'
He pulled back his hand and now a purple orb could be seen in it.
RUMBLE!!
RUMBLE!!
RUMBLE!!
But Primis didn't get the chance to do anything else as thunder roared all over Inazuma before a purple pillar landed at the entrance of the cave.
BANG!!!!!!!!!!!!
It was so violent that the entire Mt. Yougou trembled.
The light died down the person appeared.
She was woman with pale skin, purple eyes with light blue pupils, and long, dark violet hair that were braided. On the right side of her head was a hairpin with pale violet flowers resembling morning glories and a fan-shaped piece. She also had a beauty mark below her right eye. As her outfit she was wearing a dark purple bodysuit under a short lavender kimono.
She was none other than the Electro Archon herself, Raiden Shogun.
"She really did sense her consciousness when Lord took it out of the gate."
"Primis: Well, she was the old Electro Archon, and the one in front is the next one."
Raiden Shogun looked at Primis for a moment before her eyes travelled to the purple orb in Primis' hand.
???: How dare you, Human!
"She is Raiden Ei instead of Raiden Shogun."
"Primis: Yeah. This explains why she come here as fast as possible."
She then floated in the air a little. A purple circle appeared behind her, and she moved her hands before an electro symbol appeared in between her hands.
FWOOSH!!!!
There was a purple shockwave as Raiden Ei puffed her chest and leaned back a little.
Thunder crackled violently around her as a purple katana rose out in between her breasts.
She pulled out the katana from her chest as thunder started destroying the surroundings.
Raiden Ei: You will pay the price of touching her with your life!
Instead of becoming afraid or something, Primis chuckled.
Primis: Is that so. Then...
Giving her mocking look, he continued.
Primis: I have an opponent just for you.
Suddenly space wrapped behind Primis, and someone walked out.
RUMBLE!!!
RUMBLE!!!
GOUDOU!!!!
GOUDOU!!!!
At its appearance, let alone Mt. Yougou, the entire Inazuma started to shake.
Even Raiden Ei opened her eyes wide, and her skin crawled.
The one walked out was a woman with purple eyes and very long hair with bangs. She had two long oni horns and reddish eyes. She was clad in red armor and donned a red, white, and black dress along with white thigh-highs and heels. Her heels gave her a significant height increase.
Primis: God of Thunder, meet my Herrscher of Thunder. Let's see who is superior.
