Seeker of Teyvat

Baisong Town,

Paimon, who was watching Ying and Navia chatting, suddenly scratched his head and looked around, seemingly looking for something.

Ying saw her movements and asked curiously: "Paimon, what are you looking at?"

Paimon tilted his neck: "I'm looking for Miles and Silver. Shouldn't they be following Navia?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Navia's expression froze, sadness appeared in her eyes, she opened her mouth, but could not speak.

Looking at her look, Ying suddenly had a bad feeling.

Before she could ask further questions, the shouts of members of the Thorny Rose Society came from not far away.

"Miss Navia, there is still something going on here."

When everyone heard the sound and looked around, it seemed that there was another problem over there, and many people gathered together.

"I know." Navia responded loudly, then looked at Ying and Paimon, "Sorry, I have to go away for a while."

After saying that, Ying and Paimon ran away as if running away without waiting for their reaction.

Paimon blinked: "She left... In this situation, it's no wonder she is so busy..."

Paimon didn't seem to notice what her question had stimulated.

Ying turned to look at Paimon and opened her mouth, but in the end she didn't say anything about Miles and Silver.

Her eyes flickered, praying in her heart that she just guessed wrong.

the other side,

Navia walked around the area, talking to many people and arranging various matters.

Every decision she made was very reasonable. The victims who had gathered together quickly dispersed and started busy with their own affairs.

It seems that this disaster is almost over, but Navia still looks a little heavy...

A few hours later,

Navia returned to Ying and Paimon,

"...Okay, the basic inventory and rescue are almost done. New reinforcements just arrived, so I can finally take some time to do something of my own."

I don’t know if she just said too many words and solved too many tasks, but Navia’s voice was a little hoarse.

"Of course we can't take it lightly. We should do our best. I will let everyone from the Thorn Rose Club accompany [helpers] throughout the process."

【Helpers】=fools.

After saying that, she looked at Ying and Paimon: "Ying, Paimon, can you accompany me to my father's cemetery?"

Paimon was a little confused: "Eh, now?"

The fluorescent eyes flickered slightly, and he saw the sadness in Navia's calm expression: "I understand, let's go."

Leaving the devastated Baisong Town,

The three of them walked all the way up the hillside,

Over there is the cemetery in Baisong Town.

Navia's father, Mr. Cares, is buried here.

When the three of them arrived, there were only a few scattered figures in the entire cemetery, and extremely suppressed cries could be heard from all of them.

Obviously, although the disaster has temporarily passed, the scars it left are still in everyone's heart.

"There are so few people." Navia lowered her head and murmured.

Paimon looked around: "At this time and the situation in Baisong Town, no one will come to visit the grave..."

"Well, the people who come here now are all the townspeople who have lost important people." Navia spoke very slowly, as if she still blamed herself in her heart, "As for the other people, they are exhausted while living, even if they want to come and die. People can’t even say a few words.”

At this time, even Paimon could see that something was wrong in the other party's heart. She was a little worried: "Hey, Navia"

Ying stepped forward and hugged Navia: "No need to hold on."

This sentence seemed to open up the last persistence in Navia's heart,

Big tears fell from her eyes,

Covering her chest with one hand, she said in a hoarse voice with a cry: "...I'm sorry, I...really."

Her emotions collapsed instantly. Navia slipped from Ying's embrace and squatted on the ground, covering her face with her hands and crying: "...Miles and Silver...will never come back."

"Father, what should I do..." The girl collapsed in front of her father's tombstone, trying to find even a glimmer of comfort.

It's a pity that the cold tombstone cannot speak.

Paimon's eyes widened instantly: "How could that be possible!!!"

She couldn't believe that Miles and Silver, the two guys who followed Navia and could bring out eggs, sugar, and almonds,

Just like that...dead?

Paimon was stunned, and Ying took a step forward: "Navia, please forgive me."

She didn't know what to say now, so in the end she could only say the most useless thing - please forgive me...

"If it hadn't been for me, if I hadn't been too careless... them, they wouldn't have..." Navia cried bitterly, "They were drowned by the sea water because they were trying to save me."

Navia fell into endless self-blame and sadness, and her sad cries echoed in the cemetery.

Paimon regained his composure and looked at Ying with some confusion: "I... what should we do..."

Ying shook her head. She knew that the best way now was to let Navia continue to cry and release her inner emotions.

Tears take away those emotions.

"I've known them for so long... I know they won't be afraid of these things, but, but..." Navia left her face with her hands, revealing a crying face, with panic, regret, and indelible pain on her face, "Even if He is the father. At least the body can be found and the funeral can be held. Miles and Silver are completely...I really can't accept it..."

She fell into memories,

When she, Miles and Silver came to visit their father's grave,

They had talked about death.

As Navia said, everyone in the Rose of Thorns Society is not afraid of death.

The biggest wish of Myles and Silver is that after death, they can be buried next to the grave of Mr. Carres, the former leader of the Rose of Thorns Society and Navia's father.

because of this,

Every year when Navia comes to visit Father Kares's grave, they can meet Navia together.

At that time, Navia's reply was that there was no need to stop by, she would personally make a trip for them.

The jokes from the past seem to still be in my ears, but the old friend has...

Navia's eyes were filled with tears: "I clearly made a promise to them...but I'm going to break my promise."

There was silence in the cemetery for a long time,

Navia wiped away her tears and looked at Ying and Paimon: "I'm sorry for making you laugh. In fact, I don't usually cry...really."

Paimon was at a loss: "I don't know how to comfort you, but I understand how you feel..."

Navia raised her head and looked into the distance: "I have always felt that my wishes can come true. Now that I think about it, I don't have to do it all by myself. Many things can only be done by someone who helps me. Miles and Silver helped me. I have a lot. At the end of the day, there's not much I can do for them at a time like this."

Ying and Paimon looked at each other: "You can stay here as long as you want, we will accompany you."
