Chapter 41: Going Out to Play With Nahida

After leaving a dream space in her room as a cover, Lin Yudie brought Nahida to the streets of Mondstadt.

At this time, Mondstadt was devastated by the attack of the wind dragon, and the people of this free city were busy with post-disaster reconstruction.

Because of the previous battle with the wind dragon in the sky, most of the residents of Mondstadt now know the two sisters.

Therefore, now they have changed into a black-haired and black-eyed look, and under the cover of divine power, not many people will notice them when they walk in Mondstadt.

"Let's go, Nahida, let's go find the drunkard poet. He should still be in the city now."

Lin Yudie estimated the current time point. It should be the time when Lumine, Lisa, Kaeya and others went to those temples to destroy the source of power of the wind dragon.

Therefore, the drunkard poet should still be cheating people in the tavern in Mondstadt.

The two sisters wandered around in Mondstadt, looking for the traces of the drunkard poet.

"Sister, look at the Wind God Square, why are there so many people around? Let's go over and take a look." Nahida pointed to the crowd in the distance and said.

"Okay, since we can't find the drunkard poet for the time being, I'll take you out to play." Lin Yudie nodded, and then walked over there with her sister.

Pushing aside the crowd, the two sisters saw a young man in green clothes and a green hat standing in the crowd. The harp in his hand was emitting a melodious melody, soothing the people's anxious hearts due to the arrival of the disaster.

After a moment, a melodious song came from the boy's mouth:

"The story I want to tell was born in the ancient times."

"At that time, the gods were still walking on the earth, and the sky dragon descended from the sky..."

The boy surrounded by the crowd was plucking his strings and telling everyone about the life of his family, the East Wind Dragon Dvalin.

In the ancient times, Dvalin was born in the sky shortly after the end of the Archon War.

At this time, he, just like a newborn, ignorant child, flying without worries, full of curiosity about everything in the world.

He kept flying in the sky, constantly seeking his own answers, but he could not understand the complexity of the world.

Until the Anemo Archon in the sky gently plucked his strings, and the beautiful sound of the skyward harp answered him one by one.

Gradually, in the beautiful sound of the Anemo Archon, the wind dragon gradually learned the human language and learned to listen to beautiful poems.

At the same time, this beautiful poem also made the once unrestrained wind dragon fall in love with it, so he decided to stay with the best bard in all of Dvalin.

However, 500 years ago, the disaster from Khaenri'ah soon fell on the free land of Mondstadt.

The dragon Durin was created by the alchemist Rhinedottir of Khaenri'ah, who deceived him by saying, "There are beautiful poems and jewel-like dragons on the land over there. Go over there, and the people there will welcome you."

So, under Rhinedottir's persuasion, the dragon Durin came to Mondstadt with great expectations, like a child without any thoughts.

However, what Durin didn't know was that when he was born, he was carrying the dark pollution from the abyss, which could be described as a walking disaster. The reason why Rhinedottir said this to him was because he wanted to use his power to attack Mond.

So, when Durin came to this land, what greeted him was not beautiful poems, but weapons in people's hands.

But the power of the dragon was too strong. Even if he didn't mean to hurt these people, the dark pollution from the abyss he carried on his body was not something that ordinary people could resist.

At this time, the knights responsible for protecting Mondstadt also died in battle one after another, just as the young man sang in his poem:

"The lion's teeth are rotten, and the eagle's flag is not raised."

However, at this time, the wind dragon Dvalin, as a follower of the Anemo Archon, listened to the call of the people, descended from the sky, and started a thrilling battle with the dragon Durin.

In the end, the wind dragon Dvalin killed the dragon Durin in the Dragonspine, and he himself fell into a deep sleep because he swallowed the dragon's poisonous blood.

Until recently, when he revived, he thought he would be praised by people.

But people had already forgotten him and regarded him as a monster that would destroy Mondstadt, and the name of the wind dragon came from this.

The wind dragon stood in the distance for a long time, looking at the city he once protected, and asked, "Why do people today hate me?"

However, due to the disaster in Khaenri'ah, the Anemo Archon also fell into a deep sleep, so the wind dragon's question was not answered.

Therefore, under the triple stimulation of Durin's poisonous blood, people's oblivion, and the Abyss Cult, the wind dragon became insane and attacked the city he had guarded for a thousand years.

"Is that so? No wonder Dvalin, the follower of the Anemo Archon, wants to attack Mondstadt." Nahida whispered in the crowd.

She was always kind-hearted and was very worried about Dvalin's current situation. If he was really attacked by the people of Mondstadt, how sad the drunkard poet would be.

"Nahida, sister will tell you one more thing." Lin Yudie looked at her sister and said lightly.

"Ah? Isn't the story of the drunkard poet finished yet?"

"No, it's not about Dvalin, but about the dragon Durin. According to the records of the World Tree, until the moment he was killed by Dvalin, he always naively thought that Dvalin was looking for him to play..."

"What?" After hearing her sister's words, Nahida was very surprised.

"Yes, he came to Mondstadt because of the instigation of his creator, the alchemist of Khaenri'ah, Rhinedottir."

"Five hundred years ago, it was Khaenri'ah who came into contact with the abyss, which forced Celestia to destroy them. Moreover, it was Khaenri'ah who caused the world tree to be polluted by forbidden knowledge!"

When mentioning Khaenri'ah, Lin Yudie was very angry. If they hadn't come into contact with the abyss, her mother wouldn't have become such a ghost now.

It can be said that most of the disasters in Teyvat now are caused by this country that was destroyed by Celestia five hundred years ago. If it weren't for them, Teyvat would be a better place now.

And they keep saying that human pride has attracted the abyss and brought endless disasters to other human compatriots. Is this what is called pride?

"Alas, you are the ones who fought with Dvalin in the sky before." At this moment, a voice brought Lin Yudie's thoughts back to reality.
