Teyvat Survival Guide

"Okay, now that we've finished our work," Wendy said with a smile, "Shall we fly a few laps together?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he gathered his strength, and the surging wind elemental force burst out, and in an instant only a green afterimage could be seen.

Samuel came to his senses, shook his head, and unwilling to be outdone, he attached the element of wind to his wings and flapped with all his strength.

The flapping of their wings made a huge sound in the air, and the two of them soared above the clouds where the moon cast a cold light, accompanied by the twinkling stars.

"Little Slime, you've made great progress." Samuel heard the wind say this in his ear.

While Wendy was flying easily and at high speed, she was even able to turn around and talk to Samuel with a smile.

The wind blew Samuel's white hair, and he couldn't help sighing as he looked at Wendy who disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Lord Barbatos flies so fast!

Just catching up with Him is exhausting...

The wind blew over from not far away, carrying information:

"Why are you standing there? Come and chase me—"

Samuel was startled, then flapped his wings and chased after it.

……

They chased each other and played in the sky for who knows how long, and finally landed together on a high-rise building in Mondstadt.

The two of them collapsed together, exhausted, on the Gothic eaves of the dome and spire of the cathedral in the cathedral district.

No, Wendy just looked a little weak and sleepy, but Samuel was so tired that he could not maintain his human form.

He threw his clothes aside, turned back into a slime, and collapsed on the roof.

"Well, not bad, not bad... This Wind God had a lot of fun tonight." The young man in green said leisurely with a tired look on his face.

He sat there, leaning back, supporting himself with his hands, admiring the scenery in the distance.

Looking towards the Fruit Wine Lake from here, the sun quietly reveals its red face in the welcome of the morning glow.

Suddenly, thousands of golden rays of light penetrated through the treetops, dyeing the sparkling lake surface a layer of rouge red.

Wendy sighed:

“…Oh, the sun is coming out.”

The Slime Liquid that was lying there instantly stood up after hearing this.

“——What did you say?!” Samuel couldn’t help but look towards the direction of the sun.

I saw a glimmer of dawn gradually rising on the other side of the Fruit Wine Lake in the distance.

Samuel: "..."

No.

I didn't sleep all night?!

And you've used up all the stored elemental power? !

I have classes today! It's the Knights' PE class!!

"Okay, what's the big deal?" Wendy waved her hand, and then casually threw a wind eye at the wind slime.

Eh?

Samuel blinked and transformed back into his original form.

I felt like I was about to be severely overdrawn just now, and now I have the strength to recover?

"Didn't I tell you before that as you grow older, you'll need more pure elemental power to advance." Wendy said leisurely as he looked at the rising sun, "And the wind elemental power that is not pure enough will either dissipate or be used to expand your own elemental abundance, right?"

The white-haired boy was wearing clothes and nodded as if he understood.

"The elemental power we normally consume is just the elemental abundance, that is, the elemental power stored in the body. When we encounter sufficiently pure wind elemental power, we can naturally recover a lot of it." Wendy explained.

Samuel put on his clothes and thought for a while with his chin in his hands.

...In other words, the elemental force contained in the elemental creature's body is divided into two parts, one is pure wind elemental force, and the other is the wind elemental force used in daily life.

Depending on the concentration, a small portion of pure wind elemental power can be divided into many portions of wind elemental power for use.

The higher the level of elemental life, the more and purer the wind element power it contains.

For example, the eye of the storm that Lord Barbatos casually played was too pure for him.

Well... just like if you pour any water from the ocean into a cup, it will fill it up.

When the wind elemental force that he usually uses is used up, someone like him who has two forms, original form and human form, will not be able to support it and will turn back into the original form.

If you use it at this time, what you will overdraw is pure wind element power.

As he was thinking, Samuel suddenly realized a problem.

In that case...on the other hand, wouldn't the amount of elemental power that Lord Barbatos can absorb be very little?

“…Lord Barbatos, if you use up all your elemental power, will you turn into your original form?” Samuel asked.

Wendy was stunned.

After a moment, he slowly said, "Yes."

"...In fact, it won't be long before I have to find a place to sleep," Wendy added.

This time it was Samuel's turn to be stunned.

Wendy looked at the rising sun and continued:

“…You don’t have to be too surprised, I’ve always been like this.

"Sleeping, sleeping, resisting 'wear and tear', and waking up when something happens.

“Like the time I woke up, it was because Feng heard that Tevarin, who was soaked in poisonous blood, was about to wake up, so I made preparations in advance.

"Now that Tevarin has been purified and I have met you, I just happen to have very little strength left."

He looked at the sun, closed his eyes and sighed with relief:

"It's time to go back to bed."

Samuel listened to him quietly, with his eyes drooping.

Seeing him like this, Wendy reached out and rubbed his head, saying comfortingly:

"Okay, I'm just going to take a nap. When my strength is restored, I'll come back to accompany you again."

"Besides, didn't I promise you that I would help you get home?" he smiled.

Samuel was silent for a long time before he uttered a muffled "hmm".

Wendy patted his head:

"Well, the sun is up, and you should go to class.

"Why are you looking so gloomy? I'm not going to bed now.

"If you miss me, just call my name and I will hear you."

The white-haired boy said nothing and just lowered his head.

It was a long time before he realized that the hand rubbing his head was gone.

"…Lord Barbatos?"

Samuel looked up and saw that there was no one around.

Only the wind is still blowing slowly by my ears.

……

——Outside Samuel’s room, Giuliana knocked on the door.

"Your Majesty, it's time to get up and wash up." She said respectfully, "Today is Monday, and your schedule is to go to the Knights' Order to learn combat techniques from Captain Gunhild."

After saying that, she waited for a moment.

When there was no response, she knocked again.

"Your Majesty?" Giuliana asked doubtfully.

At this moment, the white-haired boy was flapping his wings and flying in from the balcony next to the stained glass window on the other side of the room.

He slowly landed on the carpet in the room, took a deep breath, and ran to open the door.

Seeing the door open, Giuliana lowered her head and bowed slightly.

"Good morning, Saint Samuel," she said. "Wash yourself first, and then you will go to the Order."

She heard the other party say "hmm" softly, but it was not the familiar childish voice, but the crisp and bright voice of a young boy.

She couldn't help but look up. The person standing in front of her was not the familiar white-haired boy, but a white-haired boy who was wearing the same style of pure white religious dress as the boy and looked very similar to the boy.

The young man in front of him was thin, but his figure was concealed by his loose white robe.

The exposed skin is clean and white, and the thin lips highlight a sacred, serious and graceful expression, like a noble statue.

But the corners of his eyes were slightly drooping, making him look a little childish, and his slightly curly white shoulder-length hair made him look a little furry.

If Samuel were to describe it himself, well, it's a bit like a grown-up Samoyed.

But when Giuliana saw the dark white, slightly glowing vertical pupils in his azure eyes, she couldn't help but shudder.

She came back to her senses, looked at the silver crown on the other person's head, and exclaimed:

"…You are His Majesty?"

"It's me." Samuel nodded, "Lord Barbatos gave me a gift that allowed me to grow."

"…Praise Lord Barbatos!" he suddenly shouted.

Giuliana was stunned for a moment, then she also shouted:

"——Praise Master Barbatos!"
