「Ding—You have been invited to the Elite Live Room」
[Hu Tao: Aoh—! Is everyone doing well? It's been seven days; I've missed you all to death! If anyone is feeling... unwell... you can come find me. Or if someone around you is feeling "unwell," that works too! Our Wangsheng Funeral Parlor is a time-honored Liyue brand—satisfaction guaranteed!]
[Sangonomiya Kokomi: Director Hu Tao is certainly in high spirits.]
[Hu Tao: I have to be! I lost 400,000 Mora last time!]
[Zhongli: Ahem... @Hu Tao, Director...]
[Hu Tao: Aoh?]
[Xiangling: Mr. Zhongli, you didn't forget your Mora again, did you?]
[Zhongli: I forgot again. My apologies.]
[Jean: Hello everyone, it has been a few days.]
[Kaeya: Kaeya, Cavalry Captain of the Knights of Favonius, reporting for duty.]
[Yoimiya: Hello, True Lord of Ice-Bridging the Sea!]
[Yun Jin: Hello, True Lord of Ice-Bridging the Sea!]
[Paimon: Hello, True Lord of Ice-Bridging the Sea!]
[Xiao: Hmph. Insolvent mortals... disrespecting the Adepti.]
[Keqing: @Grand Master Jean, is the Immortal-Binding Rope working well?]
[Klee: Waaaah, it works too well! Klee has been caught twice in seven days!]
[Amber: ...]
[Lisa: ...]
[Noelle: Even Stormterror hasn't come to harass us lately.]
[Venti: Ehe!]
[Rosaria: Master Diluc, can I take a break now?]
[Barbara: Sister Rosaria! Why have you been missing so often lately?]
[Rosaria: Isn't it obvious? I'm working off my debt.]
[Kuki Shinobu: Sigh, what are we going to do about the Mora...]
[Arataki Itto: This young master is in despair! My 200,000 Mora debt ballooned to 400,000 in seven days! If this keeps up, how will I ever pay it back?]
[Thoma: @Arataki Itto, at this rate, you'll undoubtedly become Inazuma's Number One Debtor.]
[Arataki Itto: Then I'm still Number One! Hahahaha!]
[Paimon: Arataki Itto is so optimistic. Think of how much Fisherman's Toast you could buy with that much Mora...]
[Xingqiu: Everyone is entering the room so quickly this time.]
[Chongyun: I've specifically prepared several popsicles for today.]
[Yae Miko: Isn't this Liyue's famous cross-dresser?]
[Xingqiu (covering face): I can't show my face anymore. I haven't dared to leave my house for seven days. I didn't even dare to go check the new arrivals at Wanwen Bookhouse.]
[Bennett: Um... can someone come to the Thousand Winds Temple and help us? I'm trapped in the ruins again.]
[Kaeya: ...]
[Yanfei: ...]
[Thoma: ...]
[Hu Tao: @Bennett, seriously... won't you consider Wangsheng Funeral Parlor's premium services?]
[Chongyun: You should call out for that brother Razor.]
[Razor: I... went to save him. Also... trapped inside.]
Everyone: "..."
[Fischl: I hear the whispers of fate, calling upon the name of the Prinzessin! You who have descended into darkness shall be severed from sin!]
[Oz: What Mein Fräulein means is she heard your cries for help. Just wait a moment, she is on her way.]
[Diluc: A special event is starting. Everyone, rest up.]
「Current Broadcast Topic: 'Heroes Need Not Ask for Origins'」
Across the entire continent of Teyvat, people stopped their work. The ordinary live room chat exploded as the screen showed a panoramic view of Liyue Harbor.
[Sangonomiya Kokomi: So this is Liyue Harbor? It's beautiful.]
[Jean: Vibrant and prosperous—the most commercially developed nation.]
[Ganyu: It is all thanks to the guidance of Rex Lapis.]
[Keqing: The Liyue Qixing welcomes guests from afar at any time.]
"It's our Liyue!"
"I knew it! Last time was Mondstadt, so this time it had to be Liyue."
"Heh heh, I've done my homework and collected data on Liyue this time!"
"Today, I, Iron Tongue Tian, shall redeem my honor!"
The camera descended from the sky, providing an aerial tour of Liyue Harbor before zooming into the bustling main commercial street. Two familiar figures appeared on screen.
Lumine and Paimon.
[Paimon: Why is it us again!]
[Amber: Little Paimon and Lumine are now the most famous people in Teyvat, especially Paimon!]
[Paimon: Hehe, really?]
[Ningguang: Simply put, you are the 'tools' of the narrative.]
[Paimon: ...]
[Lumine: ...]
The camera followed them up to the third floor of Wanwen Bookhouse.
Paimon: "Wanwen Bookhouse... this is Liyue's bookstore, right? Let's ask if they have the Liyue edition of the 'Teyvat Travel Guide'."
Jifang: "That book hasn't been sold for a long time. It wasn't very popular."
[Jifang: Wanwen Bookhouse welcomes you! we have many new books and antiques. We also support book publishing!]
Hu Tao saw the shopkeeper advertising and clenched her fists.
[Hu Tao: Curse it! When will they broadcast the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor? That would bring in business from all over Teyvat!]
[Yanfei: Director Hu, I don't think a funeral parlor is exactly 'broadcast-friendly' material.]
[Barbara: Lord Barbatos protect us, please don't let them broadcast the Cathedral.]
Paimon: "But the Mondstadt edition was so interesting!"
Jifang: "That book has too much 'personality.' Not only did it fail to sell, but we even got complaints. If you really want to read it, go find Granny Nine."
Paimon: "Granny Nine?"
Jifang: "He lives in Qingce Village and collects all sorts of books. He's an old customer of mine; I occasionally send him out-of-print collectibles."
Suddenly, a figure familiar from seven days ago walked out.
"Out-of-print collectibles? Then the legendary 'Legend of the Shattered Halberd' might be in his collection as well?"
Paimon looked over: "Who are you?"
[Yoimiya: The cross-dresser!]
[Amber: The cross-dresser!]
[Xinyan: The cross-dresser!]
[Kaeya: The cross-dresser!]
[Xingqiu: STOP SAYING THAT—!]
