Su Yuan hadn't expected that the eerie Eula would skip even the slightest probing move and immediately bring out her strongest power and technique against Lisa!
After Eula swung that sword, another sword materialized at her side, following her movements…
No, to be precise, this so-called Lightfall Sword was now formed from pitch-black, blood-red eerie power.
It should really be called the Darkfall Sword instead…
But no matter what it was called, Su Yuan could feel a terrifying aura from that little sword at Eula's side.
If it were to erupt, who knew how dreadful its power would be…
What's more, if one went by the logic of the original game, at this point Eula hadn't even started stacking charges yet—this was only the initial, most basic state—and already the feeling was so horrifying…
With the eerie power bolstering her now, Su Yuan didn't even dare to imagine how overwhelmingly strong she would become if she reached full stacks…
Seeing Eula unleash that move, Lisa snapped in anger:
"Eula, what do you mean by this??"
"Don't you realize this is the library???"
"If your Lightfall Sword descends and explodes with all its force, it will destroy every single book here!!!"
"I'm doing this on purpose…"
Eula shot back coldly, without the slightest hesitation:
"Destroying all the books you treasure most—that's the best revenge, isn't it???"
"And then, letting you die in pain and despair—what a delightful experience that must be!"
The next moment, Lisa stopped wasting words.
She summoned a rose lantern in her hand, within which eerie power condensed into crackling lightning, and hurled it straight toward Eula!
But Eula wasn't the least bit cowed—she gripped her greatsword, wreathed in eerie power, and met Lisa's lightning head-on!
The clash of their attacks in the confined space of the library unleashed a massive shockwave that sent Su Yuan tumbling to the ground!
When Su Yuan scrambled back up and looked toward the battlefield again, it already seemed the outcome had been decided…
Lisa was still standing tall, while Eula had collapsed onto the ground, her whole body convulsing…
A victor's smile spread across Lisa's face as she looked down at the fallen Eula and said:
"Eula, you really are a fool!!!"
"Your sword is made of metal, and metal is an excellent conductor…"
"Wielding a greatsword made of metal and letting it clash directly with my lightning—aren't you just digging your own grave???"
Yet, what Lisa hadn't expected was that Eula, lying on the ground, suddenly burst out laughing:
"Lisa, although this outcome is indeed beyond what I anticipated…"
"Do you really think that by defeating me, by killing me, you can stop the Lightfall Sword from detonating?"
"My hatred with my enemies is irreconcilable! For the sake of revenge, I am willing to sacrifice everything—even if it means my own life!!!"
The next moment, to the shock of both Lisa and Su Yuan, Eula bit through her own tongue and killed herself on the spot!
And right then, the Lightfall Sword behind her instantly finished charging and came crashing down!
It was as if a nuclear bomb had exploded!!!
As the overwhelming shockwave from the Lightfall Sword's detonation swept through, Su Yuan, in the very last moments of his life, could not help but feel a mix of emotions…
Eula truly lived up to her title in the original game—the woman who ended the great number war, the Goddess of Nuclear Bursts, worthy of the name!
Moreover, although her Vision was Cryo, her Lightfall Sword seemed to deal physical damage…
Under normal circumstances, if Eula fully charged her Lightfall Sword, could she perhaps stand against ordinary Eerie beings head-on—or even obliterate them instantly?
…...
Su Yuan's eyes suddenly snapped open.
Once again came that all-too-familiar, heart-palpitating sensation…
Feeling the sharp sting in the center of his left palm, Su Yuan realized he had died once more…
He raised his left hand and looked at his palm:
[Unfortunately, this is your second death today…]
[Currently available rewind count: 2.2 times]
Su Yuan stared at the words on his palm in shock.
It happened again!!!
Even though he had clearly triggered death rewind, the number of available rewinds hadn't decreased at all!
It was as if he had gotten a completely free extra rewind!
Although from the result it was obviously a good thing, Su Yuan still couldn't shake off a sense of unease…
Just as there's no such thing as a free lunch, no one would offer help for no reason…
Why had the rules of his death rewind changed?
Su Yuan thought about it for a while, but couldn't figure it out, so he continued reading:
[Currently known, Lisa's possible conditions for turning Eerie are twofold: One, if the library's books are damaged; and two, if someone comments on her age, calling her "Auntie" or "Grandma"…]
[During one of his alchemy experiments, Timaeus accidentally damaged a book from the library. For now, do not let Timaeus and Lisa meet…]
[Klee, when under extreme tension, might accidentally call Lisa "Auntie Lisa." So, in order to prevent accidents, it's necessary to tell Klee the truth about the Eerie's existence and the severity of the situation we face…]
[Protecting her innocent, carefree childhood and ensuring her safety when facing the Eerie are, in fact, two mutually exclusive choices…]
Su Yuan looked at the intel prompts in his palm.
It seemed that last time, because Klee accidentally called Lisa "Auntie Lisa," Lisa's Eerie-condition was triggered, causing her to kill Klee, which was why he had chosen to use a death rewind…
But what Su Yuan couldn't understand was—fine, it made sense that Klee might call her "Auntie," but how could anyone call Lisa "Grandma"?
Even if Lisa was a little older, it wasn't nearly to the point of being called "Grandma," right?
Glancing around at his surroundings, Su Yuan saw that he and Aether were currently following Eula, heading toward the Knights of Favonius headquarters.
So Su Yuan spoke up:
"Everyone, I just obtained some new intel…"
Then, Su Yuan relayed the information he had acquired to the others present.
"So, right now, we'd better first check on Timaeus—what exactly happened, and why did he end up damaging the book he borrowed from the library?" Su Yuan suggested.
When Su Yuan's group arrived beside Mondstadt's crafting bench, sure enough, they spotted Timaeus.
Only, at this moment, Timaeus's face was full of worry…
"Timaeus, long time no see. How's the book you borrowed from the library holding up?" Aether cut straight to the point with his greeting.
Upon seeing the Traveler, Timaeus instantly showed a look of horror and spoke in a trembling voice:
"What? The Knights of Favonius' information network is this sharp? I only just accidentally ruined the book a moment ago…"
"Traveler, you came here—don't tell me you've been commissioned by Lisa, sent to punish me for damaging a library book?"
