Original God's Dark Priest

Because it was the last hug, Rosalyn hugged Rustam tightly, enjoying the other's touch.

Until Rustan's body collapsed, Rosaline's body lost support, fell forward weakly, and knelt on the ground.

Drop after drop of tears slid down the tip of her nose, wetting the dry ground.

The reunion after five hundred years of waiting finally came to an end at this moment.

Outside the secret realm, Saphir waited for a long time and finally saw Rosaline walking out slowly with red eyes.

As if he didn't see the other person's red eyes, Saphir turned around silently and said, "Go back."

Rosalyn nodded and followed her.

The two walked in silence for a long time. Finally, Rosalin seemed to be unable to bear the loneliness and said, "Thank you, Saphir..."

"Thank you suddenly? Have I ever done anything that deserves your seriousness?" Saphir raised his eyebrows.

Rosalin shook her head: "Why play dumb? It's not like I don't know what you did."

Saphir stopped, looked back at Rosaline who had completely calmed down, and then resumed walking forward.

Rosalin knew it all in her heart, and there was no need for her to play dumb. The bond between the two of them was no longer something that could be explained in a few words.

There was one main reason why it was difficult to save Rosaline in every previous reincarnation, and that was that she was in danger of death in Inazuma.

If Saphir were not with the Fatui, Rosaline would be in charge of Inazuma affairs and would also confront the Traveler in Mondstadt.

This will lead to complete enmity between the two sides.

Then in Inazuma, Rosaline will be targeted by the Traveler no matter what, because of Wendy's Heart of the Wind God and the Evil Eye Factory, and the Traveler will think that what he is doing is right.

Then there is Shadow's execution of Rosaline.

There is simply no way to avoid this.

If it was just death, Saphir could certainly save Rosaline, but the problem is that Inazuma also has a Kitsunesai and a Shin.

No matter who they are, these two are extremely important. If Saphir wants to have a good relationship with Ying, he will definitely choose to use the Light of Revival on these two.

This resulted in Rosaline not only being unable to survive the catastrophe, but also having no chance of resurrection.

By the time things took a turn for the better, it was already time for the captain to take action on Nata's side.

Safir began to wonder what had happened to Nata that made him want to avoid this from happening at all costs?

She had no memory of her previous reincarnation, so naturally she couldn't get the answer.

However, since Rosaline was rescued by her this time, it means that she has eliminated that possibility.

That's fine.

Thinking of this, Saphir understood that this reincarnation was indeed very different from the previous ones.

Every time before, everything in the world was allowed to develop on its own until the end of destruction, and then the world was restarted.

With each reincarnation, Saphir would develop to the point where he was above the world, but it was far from enough to save the world.

So, she worked together with Asmodeus and Istaru to constantly restart the world. Asmodeus maintained the justice of nature, and Istaru supported the reincarnation coordinates.

As for Saphir, she stripped away her own strength time and time again, and then stored it up to repair the broken laws of the world.

After countless reincarnations, the time should have come, so under the guidance of her so-called future self, she opened the real seal of the earth veins.

Since then, the world has entered a patchwork process.

Similarly, precisely because this is her last reincarnation, the abilities that she had stored before began to wander freely in the history of Teyvat, trying her best to fine-tune the fate of everyone.

She got it.

It is probably not up to her to decide what time point she can reach, but she has changed a lot of things.

For example, the transaction between Orobas and Shin definitely involved not only Istaru and Zhongli, but even herself, so that transaction was also carried out under her guidance.

Zhen has been lying to her from the beginning, and is not telling the truth even now.

And there is Veronica. She has always known this. Due to certain rules, Veronica cannot tell her too much in detail, so she doesn't know much.

Thinking of this, Saphir couldn't help but sigh. The difference could be clearly seen by comparing Heuliah and Baal.

When it comes to things that cannot be said, Heuliah chooses to remain silent, or simply says that he cannot speak.

But Baal was full of lies and was directly deceiving people. It turned out that Herulia was indeed an honest demon.

"Will you return to the Fatui? If you don't want to, that's okay." Safire didn't actually intend to force Rosaline to come back.

If it was that group of guys who set her up, Saphir wasn't particularly afraid. At worst, they would just fight. Who's afraid of who?

In the world of Teyvat, the bigger the fist, the more powerful it is.

If Rosalin doesn't want to get involved in those disputes anymore, Saphir understands her. After all these ups and downs, everyone would feel tired. It's normal for Rosalin to want to rest.

Hearing Saphir's question, Rosalin raised the corner of her mouth. She did not answer her question immediately, but asked back: "Lady Aurora, do you think that separation between life and death is the furthest distance?"

"Well, I don't think so. I have seen distances farther than life and death." Saphir shook his head. This is true. Life and death are indeed distances that cannot be crossed in the eyes of ordinary people, but there is an even farther distance called memory.

Completely forgotten, but still remembering that there was a person buried deep in my heart. The powerlessness is even farther away.

This faint despair will last throughout your life, even forever.

Rosalin held her hands and walked beside Saphir with her head held high. She was elegant and aristocratic. "So, if I keep remembering him, will I have a chance to transcend life and death?"

"...Yes." Saphir was silent for a moment, and finally gave an affirmative answer.

Crossing life and death, defying destiny, they have always been doing this, she has a grand plan, if it is completed, then everything will become possible.

After receiving Safire's affirmative answer, Rosalyn laughed, and her laughter became louder and louder. She seemed to have let go of all her reserve, venting her emotions freely, and then stopped abruptly.

"Then, I have no reason to abandon you. When you need me, the eighth Fatui executive officer, 'Madam' Rosalyn Cruzsica Lowfat, will be at your disposal." Rosalyn bowed slightly, showing her obedience.

Saphir accepted the salute and placed his hand on Rosalyn's shoulder.

As a member of Sapphire's family, Rosalyn was on the same front with her, but "Ms." was not.

She decided to submit to Saphir as the executive officer of the Fatui in order to strengthen the power of the dark priests and servants.

To fight against foreign aggression, one must first stabilize the internal situation. The internal strife was getting closer and closer. Saphir decided that after the incident in Fontaine was settled, he would go to Nata to confront the captain.

Even if she cannot win him over, she has to let the captain know her position, and then she has to call on the puppet Sandoni.

Having more people may not necessarily lead to a better outcome, but it can give people courage.

The previous fight with the captain left a certain psychological trauma on Saphir, so she has been subconsciously avoiding confrontation with the captain. Now she must face it all, because the time has almost come when she has to face him head-on.

However, she was still relatively optimistic, because she knew Capitano was a person who disdained conspiracies and intrigues the most. Even if she could not win him over, she was not worried about opposing him.

When the two returned to Mondstadt, the Windblume Festival was almost over. Venti stood in front of the statue of the God of Wind in Mondstadt, like an ordinary bard, as if worshiping the god.

"Wendy, I'm back." Safier walked up and greeted Wendy.

Hearing Saphir's voice, Wendy turned around with a smile on her face: "It looks like the matter was resolved smoothly."

"Well, it's solved." Safir nodded.

Then Wendy looked at Rosalin again: "How is it? Miss Lowfart, how much of the confusion and doubt in your heart have been dissipated?"

Rosalyn looked at Wendy and breathed a sigh of relief: "I always knew what I should do."

"That's good. I look forward to your future performance." Wendy got Rosaline's answer and nodded slightly.

He knew Rosalyn, and not just because of Safire's relationship.

In fact, Rosaline had been under his observation five hundred years ago. He had also discussed the other party with Zhongli and the Great Compassion Tree King, but Rosaline herself did not know about this.

The three of them chatted for a while, and then Rosaline said goodbye. She had to go back to the Church of West Wind to experience the carefree life in Mondstadt again.

Days like this will soon be over, and she wants to cherish them.

Afterwards, Wendy informed Saphir, and Ying and her group went to Alice's tea table.

Safire understood that Wendy wanted her to go. She didn't know the specific reason, but that didn't stop her from going to take a look.

When she arrived, everyone was gathered around the table, listening to Alice telling the story through the communicator.

"You know the Witch Society, right? It sounds like a secret society." Alice spoke slowly and clearly, telling the story of herself and her friends.

"They were bold enough to challenge the God of Wind, but he said, 'Let's not fight. Let's sing and play the harp and use poetry to end the dispute.'" An ancient story unfolded before everyone's eyes like a picture scroll.

"So from then on, the witches held meetings only in these places—in the woods, on the cliffs, and in the sky.

Bring your stories and secrets to the tea party to resolve conflicts. Witches do not fight each other, and tea and delicious cakes will bear witness to this oath..."

"Yesterday I killed my beloved man. He was old and so sick. He loved me very much, so I took on his fate and ended his suffering." These are the words of a witch.

Then, another voice said, "I raised a son. Of all the children, he was the only one left. Does that count as being a mother?"

Then, he said in a slightly desolate tone, "My life span is not as long as yours. In the future, it will be my storybooks that will accompany you. Ah, and your children as well."

"Hey, this is interesting. Let me tell your fortune."

"Don't let the prophecy affect the good relationship between us, dear sisters."

Alice sighed softly, "No matter how scary a witch is, she was once a little girl, and girls are probably growing up, right? That's why they tell their troubles to the wind.

Whether the nations are at war or the sky is falling apart, no matter what the world becomes, the witches' tea party will always be held here."

Saphir listened to Alice's words completely and quietly came behind everyone.

Little Paimon understood some of the inside story through Alice's narration: "So, this is the place where the witches hold meetings in the legend?"

"Yes, we always get together here to chat and drink tea." Alice replied.

Cole placed his right hand on his chest and asked tentatively, "Then...then whoever finds the lamp can be happy, how come?"

"That...hahaha, I didn't expect that someone other than J actually saw the prophecy. I'm embarrassed." Alice's voice seemed to carry a hint of embarrassment, "Actually...that was a letter that a few of us sisters sent to J on the eve of her wedding."

Abedo was surprised: "As expected, you all wrote it together." In his impression, Alice and her gang were notoriously unreliable, so it was not surprising that they could do such a thing.

Even though she was seen through, Alice was still in the mood to joke: "Little Albedo's ability to hold back from exposing me is a huge help. If it were you, you would have guessed a lot as soon as you saw the riddle."

"Not so fast." Albedo shook his head, then looked behind him at Saphir who was standing with his arms folded, "There is someone who seems to have seen through everything from the beginning."

It was not until then that everyone realized that Safir had arrived without anyone noticing.

Ying and Xier knew what Saphir was going to do, but since it had nothing to do with them, they didn't ask any questions. Although the others didn't know, they also understood that they shouldn't ask questions, so no one spoke.

Only Scarlett's pupils contracted the moment she saw Sapphire, obviously recognizing her.

Saphir walked forward slowly and glanced at the communicator that was lit like a light: "You guys were careless for a moment, but it cost the little guys a lot of effort."

"Oh, that voice... Safir, are you here too? I didn't hear you talking at first." Alice had no sense of having done anything wrong. Instead, she was concerned about when Safir arrived.

Saphir couldn't do anything about her, so he could only sigh and say, "I just came back from the North Wind Temple and came here as soon as possible."

"North Wind Temple... I understand." Alice nodded again and again on the other end, and then suddenly suggested, "Since you are here, please explain the answer to this mystery to me."

"Just kill yourself for being so lazy." Saphir complained, but did not reject Alice's request.

She turned around and looked at the people who were looking at her expectantly, then she repeated the riddle: "'Non-existent flower', 'A guide who will never get lost', 'A person who does not lie', 'A legend that never ends'. These four words are indeed very abstract, but they correspond to the four witches in the Witch Society."
