Chapter 508

Ningguang stayed at Guili Plains' side for a whole day.

She didn't leave until the afternoon. Next, she would start preparing to do business with Sumeru. The cooperation of all parties had been finalized. The next thing to do was to wait!

Wait for the roads on both sides to be completely repaired. At the same time, wait for information from Sumeru. When the time was right, then they could start making a lot of money. Sumeru's market was truly vast.

After seeing off Ningguang, Takumi also left the Liyue Qixing's office. It was time for him to get off work. Just as he returned home, Lumine, with Paimon by her side, arrived.

"Takumi! Those small games in the game company have already been produced. What should I do next? Are you going to launch them now, or what? Paid or free?"

Lumine walked in directly, asking without hesitation. Hearing her words, Takumi froze for a moment, then replied:

"Let's launch them for free. Let everyone play first and learn about this fun thing. If you put your 'Teyvat Survival' on it in the future, I guess it could be more convenient. Then just sell the skins and make money. How is game development going now? Is everything going well?"

Lumine nodded eagerly and responded, "Everything is going well! With Nuwa's help, many things are very convenient."

Speaking of this, she looked a bit depressed. She really wanted to beat Takumi. This guy was really annoying. He only gave her a shell of a department, and many things needed her to redo them all over again. It frustrated her.

And those programmers, they couldn't do it here, and they couldn't do it anywhere. Working there, she felt that her temper had become much more irritable. It was all Takumi's fault.

Lumine stared at Takumi, and he noticed her gaze, becoming a bit speechless. Suddenly, an idea popped into Takumi's mind. He turned to Paimon with a strange expression.

"Paimon, let me show you something."

Hearing this, Paimon was filled with question marks. "What's the matter?"

Paimon flew over, a bit confused. Show her something? What could it be? Could it be endless fried chicken? With doubts, Paimon flew to Takumi's side.

Then, Takumi directly took out a photo of him with the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles.

"Look, does this person look like you? It's almost like you're the younger version of her. You are emergency food, and she is expired food."

Paimon looked at the image on Takumi's device and was shocked.

"Wow! Who is this? Why do they look so much like me?"

Paimon's head was practically inside the screen, staring at the image in disbelief.

Lumine, also curious, leaned over. When she saw the person in the photo, her pupils shrank.

"This guy!"

In an instant, her mood shifted. She drew her sword, the Sword of Descension, with an intent to attack.

"Takumi! What's going on with this person? Do you know her? Where is she?"

The angry Lumine had already taken out her sword, looking ready to fight. At the same time, she began to doubt Paimon's origins. Was Paimon a mole?

Paimon, realizing the situation, started to panic.

"Wow! What kind of look is that? Hey! Are you trying to kill me?"

Paimon quickly hid behind Takumi, trembling.

"Paimon, tell me honestly, what is your relationship with her?" Lumine's expression was dark.

Seeing Lumine like this, Paimon was about to cry.

"No! You can't be like this! You're scaring me!"

At this moment, Paimon was truly on the verge of tears. Lumine looked terrifying.

Seeing this, Takumi sighed. "Alright, Lumine, stop it. You're scaring Paimon. Even if you ask, she probably doesn't know anything. You can tell by her expression. If she had anything to do with that person, do you think you could trick her into spending money?"

Following Takumi's words, Paimon nodded, then paused. "Wait... Are you calling me stupid? I'm mad!"

Just as she was about to agree, Paimon realized and looked at Takumi angrily. He was calling her stupid, right?

Lumine, seeing this scene, couldn't help but smile. After a sigh, she put away her weapon. Her gaze turned back to Takumi.

"Takumi, tell me the truth! What's going on with that person?"

She was clearly still upset. Although she wasn't actively searching for her brother now, she still had unresolved feelings about being sealed by that figure.

Takumi nodded. After inviting Lumine to sit down, he began to explain:

"She is the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles in this world. You've read fantasy novels, right? The Heavenly Principles are like the laws of the world, and the Sustainer is like a representative of those laws."

Takumi continued to explain. "What stopped you and your brother from leaving is actually the Heavenly Principles. And she was just following orders."

"As for the destruction of Khaenri'ah, she was also quite pitiful. It seems that after the battle in Khaenri'ah, she was seriously injured. When I saw her, she was still recovering."

"With my careful help, she's now fully recovered and... very well-behaved and obedient."

When he said this, Takumi's face was full of satisfaction, and he glanced at Lumine's expression.

Listening to Takumi's words, Lumine's expression became complex. She looked at him with a strange mix of emotions. After learning about all this, she was at a loss.

When she heard Takumi's last sentence, a light of realization dawned on her face.

In other words, this guy Takumi had somehow managed to charm or manipulate her.

Lumine was not naive. She might have been pure when she first lost her memory, but now? With her memory restored, she could even be considered quite experienced.

Lumine looked at Takumi and finally spoke slowly.

"I see... Good job. You really pulled this off."

She was genuinely impressed. How had things turned into this kind of relationship?

On another note, wasn't her brother planning to confront the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles? Would he end up getting completely overpowered by Takumi instead?

The thought made her expression even stranger. At the same time, she felt a bit excited.

If Aether really fought Takumi, she would definitely be cheering for Takumi.
