Honkai Impact 3rd, Paradise Typewriter isn't for making this kind of game.

"The Herrscher of the Void?!"

"What Herrscher of the Void? Call me Your Majesty... cough cough... call me Spirit of the Spring!"

Sirin gradually came to her senses after reading a comic book she had been reading called "The Overbearing Herrscher Falls in Love with Me".

"Then...Ah Quan?"

Having awakened from the hot spring, Sirin is continuously increasing her altitude.

Until it surpasses Xia Yuan.

Sirin looked down at Xia Yuan with her golden eyes and said, "Hmph, rude human, why do you disturb my peace?"

The spirit of the spring questioned Xia Yuan.

If Xia Yuan cannot give her a satisfactory answer, she will judge him.

"What should I do...? Why is there no notification now?"

[The adorable fairy is a little grumpy and has indicated she's slacking off, so Xia Yuan, you'll have to use your brain to figure out a solution yourself~ But don't worry, the save point has already been saved~]

"Human, answer my question quickly, my patience has its limits."

Xia Yuan pondered for a few seconds, then bowed to Xilin above and said, "Aquan... cough cough... great spirit of the spring, please forgive my rudeness just now."

We did not mean to disturb your rest. Could you please be so kind as to let us leave? We have a crucial mission to save the cabbage farm, and we will personally apologize in the future.

The spirit of the spring looked at Xia Yuan from the air.

Just as Xia Yuan was about to give up under Xi Lin's gaze, Xi Lin spoke up: "The little guy beside you can leave, but you, human, as punishment for disturbing my hibernation, hmph, you will stay here."

"No need to go on an adventure?! Is there really such a good thing?"

Just as Xia Yuan was overjoyed and ready to agree to the Spring Spirit's request, the fairy Ellie beside him became unhappy and looked at the Spring Spirit with dissatisfaction.

"No way, Xia Yuan won't stay here with you!"

Xia Yuan quickly covered the fairy Ai Li beside him.

"No, I'm willing!"

But by then, the spirit of the spring had already flown into the sky.

"Oh? Little one, since you're so loyal and righteous, then let me separate you. Right now is the time for interrogation... Oops?!"

The spring spirit, soaring high into the sky, was completely unaware of the rock wall above its head.

Falling from a great height into a hot spring.

Sirin fell into the hot spring and was soaked by the water.

"puff--"

"Oh dear, the spring spirit who wanted to abduct Xia Yuan has accidentally fallen into the hot spring! What should we do? What should we do? Do we need the help of a fairy who never falls into the water?"

The fairy Ellie winked her light blue eyes playfully at Sirin, who had fallen into the hot spring.

The fairy Airi's uncontrollable laughter and words caused the spring spirit to completely lose her mind.

"you!"

A furious and ashamed Sirin pointed at the fairy Ellie.

Chapter Eleven: Sirin's Furious Outburst

"My little Ellie, please don't anger Sirin anymore."

Xia Yuan spoke to the fairy Ai Li beside him, looking slightly nervous.

"Ahem... You two can talk this out. I'll stay here. Please, Miss Sirin, let the fairy Airi go."

"No way! Little Xia Yuan, Fairy Airi will never hand you over to the Spring Spirit!"

Fairy Airi held her magic wand in both hands, staring defiantly at the spring spirit opposite her.

"Snapped--"

The spirit of the spring snapped its fingers.

Black holes gradually formed in the space behind her.

The atmosphere gradually became tense, and the two were at each other's throats, neither willing to back down in the slightest.

It seemed as if the two were about to engage in a fierce battle at any moment.

Seeing Sirin use her powers as the Herrscher of the Void, Xia Yuan stood in front of the fairy Airi.

"It's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding. Let's talk it over."

Xia Yuan wanted to appease both sides' anger.

"See? Xia Yuan really does prefer being with cute fairies~"

"Human, get out of the way! I'm going to blast this little guy into nothing but ashes!"

Ellie's words completely enraged Sirin.

"Hmph, Fairy Ellie isn't afraid of you! Little Xia Yuan, you'd better stay away, or you might get hurt."

The fighting spirit of both sides is intensifying.

"What should we do... how can we avoid this misunderstanding and conflict between the fairy Airi and the spring spirit?"

Xia Yuan pondered deeply.

Suddenly, Xia Yuan remembered the book that had fallen at his feet when Ai-chan was helping him search for weapons at the Cabbage Manor.

The Spear of the Void has already appeared in the space surrounding the Spirit of the Spring.

"Hmph, don't think I can't hit you just because you're hiding behind a human!"

whoosh-

Just as the Spring Spirit was about to strike the fairy Airy behind Xia Yuan with the Spear of the Void...

"Wait a minute!"

Xia Yuan took out the comic book "The Overbearing Herrscher Falls in Love with Me".

The spring spirit's golden pupils trembled.

"Isn't this the second volume of my favorite comic book?!"

Snapped--

With a snap of the fingers of the Spring Spirit, the Spear of the Void dissipated into Honkai particles in the air.

The spirit of the spring seemed to realize that she had lost her composure.

Suppressing his excitement, he feigned composure and said to Xia Yuan, "Ahem... Human, since you came with tribute, why didn't you say so earlier?"

"Tribute?!"

"Hmph, of course it's that treasured book you're holding in your hand, human."

The spring spirit glanced over, extended her fair fingertip, and pointed at the comic book in Xia Yuan's hand in the hot spring.

"Human, come here quickly and give it to me! Hmm..."

Sirin felt that her way of speaking was inappropriate. After a moment of contemplation, she spoke again: "My loyal servant, offer your tribute to the great spirit of the spring. In return, the spirit of the spring will grant you three wishes."

Xia Yuan breathed a sigh of relief at the words of the Spring Spirit.

As expected, no Herrscher could resist the allure of this comic book.

Just as Xia Yuan was about to walk towards the hot spring, the fairy Ai Li beside him grabbed his sleeve.

"The lovely fairy is worried about you going alone, Xia Yuan. Why don't you let the lovely fairy deliver it to you?"

Although Xia Yuan really wanted to see Xilin up close, he didn't want to disappoint the fairy Ai Li's good intentions.

"Alright, then I'll leave it to you, Fairy Ellie. But you're not allowed to start arguing again."

"Don't worry, Xia Yuan, that adorable fairy won't hold it against her."

The more Fairy Airi said this, the more uneasy Xia Yuan became, but he still handed the comic book to Fairy Airi.

Ellie, the fairy, happily took the comic book and flew towards the spring spirit in the hot spring.

Seeing the comic book she had been dreaming of so close at hand, the Spring Spirit could no longer contain her joy and wanted to reach out and take it.

But then the fairy Ellie suddenly clutched the comic book to her chest.

"Little guy, quickly hand it over to me, and I'll forgive your disrespect earlier."

"Hi, little Sirin, don't you really want this comic book I'm holding?"

Seeing the spring spirit staring intently at the book, the smile on the fairy Ellie's lips grew even wider.

"Hmph, don't call me by such a strange name, and give me back my tribute right now!"

The spirit of the spring stretched out its hands.

"Oh dear, it seems little Sirin doesn't really want it. What should we do? Should we hide it somewhere little Sirin will never find it?"

The fairy Airi, pretending to be deep in thought, actually came up with a perfect place to hide the items.

I secretly hid this comic book in Möbius's wardrobe.

I really want to see Möbius's expression when she finds out; it'll be quite amusing!

"you dare!"

"Little guy, tell me, what do you want me to do to give me that comic book you're holding?"

The spirit of the spring suppressed its anger.

He asked the fairy Ellie through gritted teeth.

"Oh, it's actually very simple. Don't leave Xia Yuan here. You also need to return the little salted fish that accidentally fell into the hot spring to Xia Yuan. Then teleport us directly from here to the first sealed location of the Cabbage Manor."

The fairy Airi made her request to the spring spirit.

The spring spirit pondered for a moment, then slowly nodded in agreement to the fairy Airi's request.

Although it can be quite boring when no one is there to chat with, having the second volume of the comic book can still make for a happy time.

Due to the fog surrounding the hot spring, Xia Yuan could only vaguely see the conversation between the fairy Airi and Sirin.

Xia Yuan couldn't hear their conversation clearly.

At this moment, the fairy Airi, empty-handed, left the hot spring and slowly flew towards Xia Yuan's direction.

It seems that Fairy Ellie has already given the comic book to Sirin.

As long as they don't fight, that's the best news for Xia Yuan.

"Xia Yuan, come with me~ Xiao Xilin has agreed to our request and helped us open a direct route to the location of the seal. This way, Xia Yuan, you won't have to travel any further."

The impatient fairy Airi led Xia Yuan to the hot spring.

Glug-glug-glug

A huge bubble appeared in the center of the hot spring.

After the bubble bursts...

The spirit of the spring appeared above the hot spring at some unknown time.

"Human, I am very satisfied with your offering."

Xia Yuan wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he had a feeling that Xilin had secretly changed into clean clothes during the break.

"I've already retrieved the salted fish that fell into the hot spring."

Three bubbles slowly floated from the hot spring towards Sirin.

"Loyal human, did you drop this ordinary salted fish, this silver salted fish, or this golden salted fish?"

Chapter Twelve: Ai-chan Left Behind~

Xia Yuan carefully examined the three clumps of water bubbles next to Xilin.

[Simple and unadorned salted fish] [Salted fish with a shimmering silver sheen] [Salted fish with a shimmering gold sheen]

These don't seem to be his weapons...

"Ah Quan, the one I fell into the hot spring was [that salted fish]."
