Genshin Impact: I Made the Entire Playerbase Cry

Chapter 372 - 370: I Am a Pure Water Spirit Who Exiled Here When the Old Hydro Archon Perished

Next, the director became part of the audience.

Mu Yang took over the role of narrator.

Although Zosimos's play was not perfect and had many flaws.

Everyone did not change his script.

Instead, they delivered a flawless performance.

Zosimos, watching the play he wrote for the first time, covered his face and let out soft sobbing sounds.

It was clear that his eyes were moist with the happiness of his dream being fulfilled.

After a long time, the male lead Kaeya finally walked over. "How is it? Have you calmed down?"

Zosimos sniffed. "Much better. Thank you all, especially Idyia."

"Oh dear… Let's skip the polite words. Since the parts have been collected, it's time to bid temporary farewell to Mr. Director."

Idyia said to Zosimos, "Next we are going to the core of the Illusory Realm to restore it to operation."

Little Klee was reluctant to part. She really liked this outfit.

Seeing this, Mu Yang asked Zosimos, "Our little witch wants to move around in her exclusive costume. Director, what do you think…"

Zosimos's wish had already been fulfilled, so he naturally didn't mind one or two outfits.

"Rather, it's most appropriate for these two costumes to stay with the two of them."

"Great! Big Brother Kaeya should keep his too. It looks really good!"

Mu Yang expressed that this outfit suited Mr. Kaeya very well.

He was usually the captain of the Knights.

Now acting as a great thief — it felt quite fresh, didn't it?

Since everyone said so, Kaeya accepted it graciously.

He accepted the outfit.

"Alright then. I'll temporarily go around as a great thief."

[Klee, ah Klee! The pain of buying a skin but not getting it, who understands?]

[I don't understand, I'm a lucky dog.]

[? Get lost!]

"Take care, my dear friends. I wish you a safe journey!"

Everyone bid farewell to Zosimos and arrived at the core of the Illusory Realm.

Eula and Collei had already been waiting here for a long time.

Idyia had the little water droplet notify them.

Lumine brought the parts into the [pre-rendered image] and reassembled the hub core.

Lumine only heard Idyia say it was successful, but the core didn't seem to start turning.

Idyia explained that it was already fine like this.

"It's like a wound that will slowly heal. Perhaps in some quiet night, the core will quietly start turning…"

Kaeya's eyes flashed with a sharp light beside her. "Oh? I thought with Miss Idyia's ability, you could make it operate right now."

[Kaeya is really outrageous. Are you sure he hasn't read the script?]

[Everyone else should have noticed it too, right?]

[Last time when repairing it the first time, she also chased people away.]

Idyia looked somewhat troubled. "This…"

"Whether it's the original appearance of the Illusory Realm or Miss Idyia's deeply hidden beautiful form. Both are very much anticipated."

"Klee also wants to see Big Sister Idyia use magic! It must be really— amazing!"

With Kokomi the praise leader and Klee the praise leader attacking together, this offensive made it hard for Idyia to refuse.

Sure enough, aside from Paimon, everyone knew that Idyia's identity was not simple.

[Actually I'm also Paimon…]

[Hehe, me too…]

[Her true form is a large-scale mascot.]

[Actually all the NPCs in the bottle show as Hydro when viewed with Elemental Sight.]

After everyone spoke one after another, Idyia finally realized she had been seen through long ago…

However, what she wanted to explain more was that she didn't intentionally hide it from everyone.

She just felt that for travelers who had mistakenly entered the Illusory Realm, a human form was easier to get close to than her true form.

"I… I don't want people to look at me with fearful eyes…"

[So her true form is that of a pure water spirit?]

[Be obedient and let me see!]

Aside from Mu Yang, Kokomi was the first person to notice the issue.

Because on site, only she had a Hydro Vision.

She could sense changes in Hydro elements better than others.

Then, while her mind wandered while reading a novel, she suddenly thought of a possibility.

Hydro Phantasm could transform into various forms.

Then a stronger phantasm should also be able to turn into a human form, right?

[No matter what form it can transform into, this is the power of water.]

[Is it an assassin from the homeland, or…]

[It's been a while since we fought. Hearing this line still brings it back.]

At this point, Idyia no longer hid it.

She transformed into her true form. "Let me reintroduce myself."

"I am a pure water spirit who exiled here when the old Hydro Archon perished. My name is Idyia."

[What? Old Hydro Archon?]

[I think this pure water spirit looks quite delicate and pretty.]

[You're really thirsty.]

[The old Hydro Archon died in the sea of flowers, right? At the place with Skirk?]

"Umm… Suddenly speaking in my real voice feels a bit embarrassing."

Everyone said there was no need for that. Such a beautiful form should be shown openly and confidently.

They said that, but Idyia wasn't that brave.

Kaeya looked up. "I guess the prototypes of these water-form residents are no longer here anymore, right?"

Idyia said yes.

When travelers who mistakenly entered the Illusory Realm wanted to leave, she would send them to the edge of the desert.

The parts from before were actually gifts they left behind.

[Good thing it was Klee's event. They should have all left normally, right?]

[Indeed. If it weren't for 3.8, I wouldn't dare think how heartbreaking it would be.]

Out of curiosity, Idyia wanted to know why these people entered the Illusory Realm.

So she used the [Concentrated Flow Reflecting Lamp] to shape their visions.

Just like what the director said in the play.

"It can grant wishes, but even if it can grant them, it's only limited to inside the bottle."

Therefore, it wasn't that the 'parts' fell to those places.

Rather, the parts first fell to the corresponding positions.

Only after the masters closely related to them came into contact with the areas did those scenes manifest.

For example, the three brothers' huffing and puffing race car, Maimon's garden party, and the director's stage…

It was the parts that realized their dreams.

After hearing this, Collei suddenly felt touched in her heart.

"Now that all the parts have been collected back, does that mean they also…"

"Don't worry. They won't disappear as long as I don't forget them."

[The forest remembers everything, but it forgot the God of the Woods…]

[I have not forgotten.]

[This is the true Golden Dreamland.]

"Whether mutually criticizing or playing around together… In this illusory realm, they will forever be my friends."

Klee vowed earnestly as she added, "The huffing and puffing race car and Mr. Director are both very interesting. Klee won't forget them."

Collei's mood calmed down a bit. "Me too. I won't forget this fantastical adventure."

Idyia was very gratified to know their feelings.

This group of travelers was probably the most special group among all the travelers she had met.

"Haha, alright. Then it's about time for me to restore the core to operation as well."
