Journal Entry 2

sidenote was playing the special star rail events when I realized March was making us sell drugs making her the next Heisenberg

well- only on the Laoufu but details

when this releases were cutting straight back to the present afterward the next day so be prepared

_______________________________________________

After that whole scenario I forced myself to tell the truth, I never really liked talking about my emotions but eh Cloud Retainer can be really insistent when she wants to

The Geo Archon was relatively understanding and we set up a type of therapy with him so I can just vent my emotions so I don't loose control of myself again

Still don't know how to control the erosion part of my abilities sadly but I have been able to connect my mind with other people using pride, took 15 days though

Me and Yanfei been talking a lot so that's a net positive at least, Shenhe been talking to me a lot, turns out Lucifer was telling the truth about the whole red rope thing

It is kinda depressing someone I consider my sister pretty much can't express most emotion, however she has also been doing some 'secret' training with cloud Retainer

I think honestly she is working herself too hard but I guess that's how it is sometimes, anyways currently it's 2 days before I loose my shit

me and my friends said our goodbyes after all this is something I can only do alone, really hope my training with forms has helped me tbh

I've really been working a lot with constructs considering how my powers seem to work differently effective depending on what form I take, as an example when I took my waiting form during the fight with the Geo thingy

I felt really powerful and anything coursing through my chains felt boosted in a sense, I've of course made some new forms for different scenarios

One form I created is however really dangerous for my sanity effectively speeding up the time it takes for me to go insane, despite that it's really powerful but let's hope I don't have to use that

Otherwise though I've given more thought into close combat and have spend more time with Cloud Retainer sparring with swords, hell even the old geo Archon joined the fun teaching me how to use a spear

Dude is pretty chill overall but still seems to have a nasty temper when it comes to anything that puts Liyue at risk, not that I blame him of course it's his home

While training with him we took a trip to one of his statues which I then slipped on the rocky ground and hit my head on the middle piece, I felt like a fucking idiot but apparently that wasn't the end

I felt my body get covered in stone as I fell to my knees as I looked toward Zhongli who seemed mildly uncomfortable with his body twitching as he attempted to move toward me obviously failing as he says something in a different language that I still got translating to Damn you Celestia

I didn't have enough time to ask him however as suddenly thin needles spiked into my skin and cutting through my flesh, I felt even worse pain than last time as I wanted to scream at least but the dirt around my mouth stopped me from opening it hardening as I was forced to endure

Fun fact I found out I didn't need to breath anymore, I was still however fucked as I silently screamed in my head as the needles squirmed in my body like parasites

Each Needle stopped in what felt like an S shape around my back as all of a sudden the pain stopped being replaced with vigor and strength as I felt easily able to move the earth off me

As I channeled strength in my back an orange glow surrounded my body as with a hearty scream the earth turned into dust, as I waved the dust away with my wind I feel that strength welling in my back stand dormant as I look toward Zhongli who looked shocked for a moment clearly shook from the experience but shook his head as me and him had a discussion

It was revealed to me that apparently I stole part of his authority as the only Geo archon making me a minor god of sorts In geo, he told me he suspected this ability with my winds but then confirmed this with this show I put on

He was actually quite welcoming with the change surprisingly to me and actually spent more time with me often telling me about his adventures and experiences as an archon while teaching me more about Geo

It feels as if he is trying to make me a successor of sorts? not really sure if that's possible based on what Cloud Retainer told me but he is an archon so anything's probably possible

He actually had some interesting insights on my Anemo and Geo control that I didn't really think about due to the fact I've never had energy problems from mooching off Lucifer

As it would turn out there are certain movements to make elemental control more effective, this was studied during the archon war but was lost to time due to the many gods who knew dying

Zhongli on the other hand survived to tell the tale though he seemed to be quite depressed when we were talking about the was but I didn't want to impede

The technique is called Elemental Fluctuation made for the use of channeling energy through the body to create a siphon effect where you can selectively add elemental energy through movements either by hand, lips, heck even through dance

The one he and his colleagues created was made specifically for those with elemental bodies such as gods making this ineffective for Vision wielders with exceptions of course

I actually found out I could morph my body to pretty much anything of an element I've absorbed but I haven't experimented much due to how weird it feels

I've honestly gotten really blessed these last few days, I even had the wildest experience of Yanfei attempting to rap battle me, she got absolutely destroyed even with one of the judges being Madam Ping

Anyways here's hoping I survive this experience, I'd really hate having to miss that coming back party Ganyu was planning for when I return, man she needs to keep her mouth closed

Whelp I'm only an hour away best get going
