"Ah, this was such a good sleep. Paimon feels full of energy!"

The next morning, Paimeng woke up, stretched, and flew around the tent happily, completely forgetting that he had been tricked into drinking yesterday.

"Hmm... I also feel my whole body relaxed. Is it true that cold weather is more suitable for sleeping?"

Ying also stretched and agreed with Paimon's words.

"Huh? No? Where's Xiaoya?"

After lifting the quilt, Ying suddenly noticed that there was one person missing in the tent.

They hurriedly walked out of the tent, but did not see Nangong Ya.

……

Sleeping Dragon Valley, on the snow-covered ground.

Nangong Ya, who was not afraid of the cold, was not awakened by sleeping on the snow, but it might also be related to the red fairies surrounding her.

Under the weak power of the fairies, Nangong Ya was dragged across the snow bit by bit.

As she moved, more and more fairies gathered around her, as if all the fairies in the entire Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain had come over.

With the gathering of a large number of fairies, the surrounding snow slowly melted, and Nangong Ya, who was dragged by the fairies, looked like a biscuit being carried home by ants.

In this way, Nangong Ya was dragged all the way to the middle of the Sleeping Dragon Valley, where she could clearly see the skeleton of Durin, the dragon who had attacked Mondstadt.

Putting Nangong Ya down, the fairies surrounded her. The warmth from their bodies slowly melted the ice and snow, revealing a little bit of land.

After the circle of land next to Nangong Ya emerged from the snow, the buds of life quickly sprouted, and tiny green buds continued to break through the ground miraculously.

The fairies who were originally wandering aimlessly seemed to have consciousness, looking at each other as if they were communicating something.

'She's sleeping... comfortably...'

'like……'

'Does the dragon need...?'

'hug……'

In her sleep, Nangong Ya felt as if countless girls were whispering in her ears. Some of them were not clear but still woke her up.

"Well……"

Nangong Ya rubbed her eyes and sat up.

"Wow? Why are there so many fairies? Why am I here?"

When Nangong Ya woke up, she saw a large number of fairies surrounding her, which frightened her. After all, the fairies seemed to be elusive and vague, like souls.

However, as she woke up, the fairies returned to their original state of wandering aimlessly, dispersing from Nangong Ya, looking for a way back to the Fairy Garden.

"...That's strange. Was I moved here by these fairies?"

Looking at the fairies scattering aimlessly, Nangong Ya scratched his head in confusion and began to observe the surrounding situation.

Soon, Nangong Ya noticed the huge skeletons around her.

"What a big rib. Is this the place where the Demon Dragon Durin died?"

Seeing the huge skeleton, Nangong Ya suddenly thought of the magic dragon Durin.

After looking around for a while, Nangong Ya indeed found a cave full of dark red lines.

"Inside is Durin's heart..."

Nangong Ya was a little curious about how a heart could survive, so she simply stepped into the cave.

Although the cave is not enclosed, the temperature inside isolates the cold. Although Nangong Ya is not afraid of the cold, she can accurately feel the temperature changes. The temperature in the cave is warm.

Continuing to go deeper into the cave, Nangong Ya soon saw the hot and still beating heart.

"It's incredible. I remember it was a product of alchemy..."

Nangong Ya muttered in surprise and moved closer to the heart.

Feeling the inexhaustible vitality in her heart, Nangong Ya recalled the settings of the Demon Dragon Durin.

It seemed to be a life created by the Golden Alchemist Rhinedot using the Black Earth Technique. It came to Mondstadt five hundred years ago along with the dark monsters, and was eventually killed by the Wind God and Tevarin in the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain.

And Tevarin was forced to sleep because he swallowed the poisonous blood from it, and only woke up recently.

"But I remember that it was not a bad person. It thought it was playing with Tevarin, and it didn't hate Tevarin until it was killed..."

"Yes, if that's the case, then our meeting is fate. As for the humus poison in your body, even though it's something you were born with, it should be able to be cured."

"It'll be just right to keep little Tevarin company..."

Nangong Ya muttered while rubbing her hands.

"Devil dragon, be good, the bad guys have been driven away..."

……

On this day, there was a violent earthquake on the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain. A massive avalanche completely submerged the Sleeping Dragon Valley, and the remains of the evil dragon Durin were buried deep under the snow.

In the Mianlong Valley buried by heavy snow, a head poked out from the snow.

“Pah, pah, pah… I didn’t expect that the extraction of Du Lin’s body would cause an avalanche! Could it be a trap deliberately designed by someone?”

After crawling out of the snow with difficulty, Nangong Ya said depressedly.

As the snow was too soft, Nangong Ya's body kept sinking. She had no choice but to wave her arms like swimming, using brute force to slap the snow to keep herself moving, and successfully arrived outside the Mianlong Valley.

On Nangong Ya's back, a black young dragon held the hilt of the Iron Shadow Broadsword tightly, fearing that it would be thrown out.

Compared to Tevarin, who looks like an Atlantic sea slug, the appearance of this baby dragon completely fits people's fantasy of a dragon. It's just that it's too young and doesn't look domineering, but rather very cute.

"Forget it, let's go back and find Ying and the others..."

After holding little Du Lin in her arms and caressing him, Nangong Ya decided to go back to find Ying, Paimeng and the others.

"Who are you? What just happened here?"

Just as Nangong Ya was about to leave, a young man's voice suddenly rang out.

Nangong Ya quickly turned around and saw a young man with white-blonde hair and blue eyes who had appeared beside her. He was observing the buried Sleeping Dragon Valley.

The young man looked very familiar. Nangong Ya had to think carefully before she connected his appearance with the man in her memory who seemed like an NPC model and blended in with the NPCs without any sense of incongruity.

I have to say he is much more handsome in real life...

"Are you Albedo?"

Although she had already guessed it in her heart, Nangong Ya still confirmed it tentatively.

"Yes."

Albedo replied with a concise word, but his attention was on Nangong Ya, or rather, on little Du Lin in her arms.

"This little dragon looks so familiar. What's going on..."

Albedo was a little confused, as he didn't remember seeing any dragon recently.

The main reason why Albedo was confused was that there was no trace of alchemy on little Durin at this time. Albedo thought it was a dragon that came from a normal population, so he did not associate Durin with an alchemical creation at all.

“Aa ...

But Albedo couldn't recognize him, but little Durin felt very close to him and struggled in Nangong Ya's arms to get closer to Albedo.

"By the way, you haven't answered my question yet."

After looking at Little Durin in confusion for a moment, Albedo came to his senses and continued to question Nangong Ya.
