Teyvat Survival Guide

“When I tried to stop you from taking Joel away, your first reaction was to drop Joel and attack me.

"When I fought back, you quickly escaped again." Eula looked at Albedo's expression and said warningly, "What's wrong, Albedo? Don't you want to explain your actions?"

Albedo said nothing, but lowered his head and thought.

Eula was not in a hurry either. After all, the Knight of Honor was beside her, and there was also a Bennett next to her. Albedo couldn't run away even if he wanted to.

Although she and the chief alchemist of the Knights Templar were colleagues, they were not familiar with each other.

Although she also wanted to believe that this colleague of the Knights would not do anything to Joel, she had seen it with her own eyes after all, so she had to be vigilant.

Eula stroked the hilt of the sword and waited quietly.

I'd like to see what you have to say.

After a while, Albedo raised his head and seemed to have figured it out.

He laughed meaninglessly: "I see. That's really interesting."

Youla frowned and asked, "Interesting?"

The chief alchemist of the Knights Templar looked at her calmly. Instead of fear or vigilance, there was a hint of smile in his eyes.

He opened his mouth and explained, "Eula, you met someone pretending to be me."

Kong, who had been observing him for a long time, said, "I can testify to this."

Paimon saw Sora speak, and reacted, and explained: "Ah, yes, yes! I can testify as well!"

"We just went with Albedo to chase the fake Albedo!" She pointed to the pit mark on the rock wall, "That mark was left by Xiaofeng when he was fighting the fake Albedo!"

After hearing this, the slime Xiaofeng puffed out his chest with pride.

After hearing this, Eula slightly widened her eyes and looked at Albedo and Sora who were standing with him in disbelief.

She asked in disbelief: "...Fake Albedo?"

Upon seeing this, Albedo recounted to Eula the cause, process and outcome of the incident.

From meeting travelers Paimon and Samuel in the snowy mountains, to returning to camp, to discovering that the camp had been robbed and the alchemy notes had disappeared.

Eula asked in confusion: "The alchemy notes were stolen?"

Paimon nodded, then continued speaking from where Albedo left off.

First, we found footprints near the camp, and then followed the footprints all the way to the entrance of the cave.

Speaking of Albedo entering the cave, Paimon was stunned for a moment while she and the traveler were waiting outside.

"Ah, speaking of which, Xiaofeng also followed Albedo in." Paimon described the situation at that time, "In the end, Xiaofeng was not with Albedo when he came out. The Traveler felt something was wrong and stopped him."

The little slime that was named proudly puffed out his chest again.

Huh, now you know why I followed you in?

Samuel, who was feeling very proud of himself, suddenly felt an empty hand rubbing his head (? body?), as if it was a compliment.

Samuel: ...Huh?

After listening to Paimon's narration, Eula shook her head slightly, as if she was quite shocked and had not yet accepted it.

"Incredible..." She couldn't believe it. "You mean... there are two Albedos?"

After she finished speaking, she realized that her words were ambiguous and added, "Ah no, what I meant is, there is someone who looks exactly like Albedo... pretending to be him?"

"Unbelievable..." Bennett also exclaimed, "How could this happen?"

Seeing that the misunderstanding was resolved, Albedo nodded and defended himself:

“At this stage, I have no reason to hurt the boy named Joel.

“And the person you saw should be the one who escaped during the arrest,” he guessed.

Hearing this, Paimon looked at Albedo beside him.

"Come to think of it, didn't you catch that impostor?" she asked puzzledly.

Albedo shook his head: "He ran very fast, but because of the damage caused by Samuel's accumulated wind elemental power, I don't think he can run far."

Samuel, who was named again, puffed out his chest again.

Of course you can't run far.

I have been strengthened by the God of Wind. I am a super, super, super super wind slime!

"But he hid very well. I looked around for several times but couldn't find any trace of him." Albedo added.

Samuel: Poof.

I can’t tell, Abexi is quite good at hiding.

"It's possible that he met Joel while escaping and then took the opportunity to frame me." Albedo looked at Eula, his hands on his chest, his eyes sincere, "Of course, it's normal even if you don't believe what I said."

"The Traveler, Paimon, and I were separated for a while while we were on the hunt for the criminal." He looked in Sora's direction, "During that time, I was indeed unable to prove my innocence."

Samuel watched him slowly explaining himself and felt that Teacher Albedo was really a very rational and patient person.

Just as Eula was hesitant and about to speak, Albedo changed the subject:

"But the camp was messed up, the notes were stolen, and someone impersonated me. The Traveler and Paimon can testify for me."

Upon hearing this, Samuel jumped up and tried his best to let Albedo see him.

Me, me, me, and me——!!

Sora helplessly caught him as he fell, and the cycle repeated itself over and over again.

Albedo looked at the wind slime bouncing up and down and added, "Oh, yes, there's also Xiaofeng."

Seeing the slime stop jumping immediately after being called out, Albedo nodded with relief, feeling that he had guessed what the other party meant.

Samuel, who didn't like being called Xiaofeng, said: "..."

Bennett at the side thought for a long time before speaking: "Albedo, do you have any enemies?"

"Could it be that an enemy is impersonating him for revenge?" he guessed.

Albedo shook his head: "I have no enemies, and I don't remember offending anyone."

"But I have some guesses of my own, but I still need some clues." He turned around, his icy blue eyes staring at the pit marks on the rock wall. "The situation is so serious that even if you let it go, I will still investigate."

Then, he looked at Eula, who was still hesitating, and said sincerely:

"Eula, if you don't trust me, you can continue to doubt me.

"But I still hope you can recognize our friendship as fellow Knights of Favonius."

Eula already had some trust in him because of the testimony of the Traveler and Paimon, and now after hearing his words, her doubts were dispelled a lot.

At this moment, she was lowering her head, trying to ease the shock of this incident, and thinking about who might be impersonating the other party and what their purpose was.

After saying that, Albedo looked at the other people around him.

“As for the Traveler, Paimon, Bennett… and Samuel, if you wish, you can serve as witnesses and observe my next actions.

"If the other party's target is me, he will come to me sooner or later." His ice-blue eyes revealed a trace of conviction, "By then, things will progress."

Samuel was almost moved to tears.

Woohoo, Mr. Albedo finally pronounced my name correctly woohoo.

Eula hugged her chest and looked at Albedo and thought for a while. Although she already trusted him a little, she still felt a little embarrassed.

She pondered for a moment before saying, "…I will accept your statement for now. Even though it sounds incredible, I choose to believe that someone else attacked Joel."

She paused for a moment before continuing, "I will protect Joel from now on. If you need any assistance with the investigation, you can contact me and Amber."

Albedo nodded and bowed to her:

"Thank you so much."

At this point, Eula's interrogation of Albedo ended.
