Chapter 123

**"Damn it! Boss, your air conditioner is broken!"**

"Do you want to do business anymore? There are still children upstairs!"

"Yes, yes, Klee is a child~"

"What's going on, Boss Takumi? Your air conditioner is leaking!"

"It's so simple, Boss Takumi, please be yourself!"

The entire room's environment seemed to have transformed into a snowy wasteland. Many customers, both upstairs and downstairs, stood up! Some foolishly thought they had returned to the Kingdom of Winter. 

This is Summer, why is the atmosphere in the store so cold?

The biting cold surrounding Yula was affecting the entire room's temperature.

Takumi was about to stand up when he saw Venti.

He waved his hand to dissipate the chill, then turned his attention to Yula.

At that moment, Yula was still digesting the energy from the blood-type Teigu.

"I have to say, this Teigu is really too powerful," Takumi thought. Although it had been somewhat restrained by the system, it still didn't affect everyone's normal life. But time was short.

Before the room could fully freeze, Yula snapped out of her absorption.

"Okay, just get used to operating it on your own in the future. Don't release this power in the city casually, or you'll freeze Mondstadt in ice."

Takumi smiled faintly and then pointed it out.

The power of this Teigu had yet to be fully displayed in the anime!

Is Esdeath strong? Sure!

But in the anime, her true strength wasn't shown!

Najieta said that to deal with Esdeath, you would need at least 50,000 elite soldiers and over 10 Teigu users, including Akahito, to stand a chance.

The battle with Chitong happened because Esdeath saw Tazmi die. That's when everything went haywire.

Esdeath directly poured water from the Pacific Ocean on Chitong.

In reality, to face Esdeath, even 50,000 elite soldiers and 10 Red-eyed Teigu users wouldn't be enough!

Esdeath is undeniably number one!

She is the undisputed top Teigu user!

In the sect chapter, she single-handedly defeated Najehita and Tazmi (who was haunted by evil spirits), seriously injured Leonai, and killed the humanoid Teigu, Susanoo.

After mastering her esoteric arts, Esdeath could freeze time and space during battles!

No, she didn't freeze time—she stopped it!

She used eternal ice to freeze time and space!

From this, you can see how powerful her Teigu truly is.

It was only the energy Yula released by accident while absorbing the Teigu.

Fortunately, this all took place in Takumi's small shop.

With the protection of the array and the dog system to cover the base, if this had happened in the city—or worse, outside the city—the entire Fruit Wine Lake might have been frozen by the chill!

This was different from the Buddha-like Teigu that Sakura obtained earlier. That was a limited card, with only one chance to use it.

But this is a real Teigu—something that can be used repeatedly.

Clearly, this Teigu is far more powerful than what Amber and Sakura received.

"Phew, that's it..." 

After Yula absorbed the Teigu, a mysterious rune appeared on the back of her hand. 

This rune signified the trace of the Teigu she had absorbed. It was also the only Teigu that could be absorbed into the body after removing its side effects.

The power of this Teigu was immense.

Yula then contained the chill emanating from her body and looked at the shivering bystanders around her. 

Her face turned green. This wasn't good. It seemed she had angered them again.

But to her surprise, no one showed any anger.

Instead, everyone stared at her with envy!

Yes, envy!

Their eyes were practically undressing her with their gaze, inside and out.

Yula, confused, wondered, *Why are they looking at me like this? Did I get something special?*

She never imagined that absorbing the Teigu would attract so much attention!

It was unlike Amber's Teigu.

This Teigu seemed more powerful and harder to control when absorbed.

Before she could think further, she suddenly heard the voice of a little girl selling flowers next door.

"Boss Takumi, what is this?"

The question sparked a wave of chatter through the entire hall!

Venti, standing nearby, began fiddling with fish again, having resolved the crisis. As long as it didn't threaten Mondstadt, it didn't matter.

"Yeah, yeah! Sister Yula, can you show us again?!"

"Miss Yula, did you get something more powerful?!"

"Miss Yula, you're so strong! You could probably take on the Wind Demon Dragon!"

"As expected of the Splash Rider! Your luck is much better!"

"Captain Kaeya said he was very sorry, okay, ahem... *Captain Kaeya*, when did you come...?"

Just as everyone was focused on Yula, Kaeya came downstairs. Curious, he looked at Yula.

Like Yula, Kaeya possessed an Ice Vision (God's Eye). 

Such Eyes of God were said to be a gift from the Seven Archons, though it was rumored that they had a mysterious connection to Sky Island.

"This is the Ice Teigu," Takumi explained briefly. "Yula absorbed the energy released when the Demon God appeared, and she's fine now."

After hearing this, the entire room was shocked—*including Venti*.

The God of Wind, who had been fishing all this time, immediately stopped, unable to sit still.

"I've worked so hard to blow away the wind and snow in Mondstadt, and now you give her this Teigu?" Venti lamented. "Are you planning to stab me in the back, Yula?"

"I, Barbatos—Aeolus—am not as young as I used to be!"

"If you can comprehend the profound truth, you can even freeze an empire?!"

"Impossible! This is the power of the Winter Solstice Empress!"

"Is Yula going to become the God of Ice?"

"Does our Knights of Favonius now have its own god?"

"How dare she create ice cavalry? At this rate, Yula alone could be a full knight order!"

"This is too scary!"

Hearing Takumi's explanation, not only the bystanders but even Yula herself was startled!

Especially when she saw all the attention focused on her, she felt a bit overwhelmed.

Looking around at the crowd of excited people, some quickly rushed to report to headquarters.

The news that Mondstadt had acquired the power of God must be reported to Her Majesty, the Queen!

This was a matter of great importance. If they could bring Mondstadt into their ranks…

As for the queen's future plans…
