How was it achieved?
[Ding, congratulations on grabbing the fox's tail and completing the check-in challenge]
[Unlocks Yae Miko's first and second Constellation]
[Second Constellation: Sakura Bestowment's initial state at creation is improved, and its attack range is increased]
[Reminder: Constellations are abilities not present in real characters, but you can choose to help them and light up their Fate Stars] kuAiδugg
…
Lightning punishment descended, and the earth cracked open.
A hurricane mixed with violent Electro energy swept in, uprooting everything in its path.
"Help—the wind is so strong—I'm going to be blown away!"
Little Paimon buried herself in Lumine's chest, kicking her little legs.
"Don't panic, everyone, it's just a small situation."
Qin Yu slowly spread his arms, looking calm.
Back when he was caught between the great leader and his wife, he could still withstand the offensive of both women while standing. What was a hurricane?
Pain, shield!
Just as he was about to gather Geo energy and activate the Jade Screen Shield, his body sank.
A cat-eared maid pounced, clinging tightly to him.
Her fluffy cat ears were still rubbing against Qin Yu's neck.
Not to mention Paimon, who even took advantage of the chaos to kick Qin Yu twice.
"Qin Yu—thank you!"
Lumine mumbled, her face buried, misunderstanding his intention.
She thought Qin Yu spreading his arms was to lead them to escape.
After all, when they first met, Qin Yu had already shown his speed.
Indicating Qin Yu could flash and kick her butt.
In fact, it was the combat talent: Anemo Burst.
"Wait a moment, let go of me first...!"
Qin Yu tried to push Lumine away, but felt his arms grow heavy.
A captivating, faint fragrance enveloped him; it was Yae Miko and Columbia.
These two "bad women," seeing Lumine's action, actually followed suit, grabbing Qin Yu from left and right!
"Please."
Columbia tilted her head slightly, leaning gracefully on Qin Yu's shoulder, acting like a delicate bird.
Without replenishing her energy, it was normal for her to be a bit weak, right?
"Little one, protect your sister, okay?"
Yae Miko also leaned closer, looking frail.
What bad intentions could an ordinary shrine maiden like her have?
But obviously, the corners of the mouths of the two "bad women" curled up, showing no fear at all.
After all, they were both combatants above the level of Archons.
But by common sense...
The relationship between the two women and Qin Yu had long since become unusual.
Columbia admired Qin Yu's potential to change the world and saw him as the only travel companion in her immortal spirit's life.
She wanted to walk with Qin Yu, to record the scenery and stories of their journey.
Yae Miko also realized that Qin Yu was someone who could gaze at her and understand her, viewing him as "prey."
Even fox ladies could get lonely.
As for what happened later between the two women and Qin Yu...
Well, one needed Qin Yu to inject life energy, and the other was caught in a net.
Translation: Couldn't do without Qin.
Qin Yu did not take advantage of the situation to do anything excessive; they interacted normally.
He sincerely wanted to bring happiness to every girl around him.
But no matter what, the two women and Qin Yu already had an unbreakable bond.
This was a fact.
It was reasonable for Qin Yu to protect them.
As for the cat-eared Lumine? She was simply not very smart.
And she owed a debt.
"Let go of me, I need to cast a shield!"
Qin Yu was getting a little anxious.
"I won't."
The three women sandwiched him and flatly refused.
Qin Yu was stunned. Are you all trying to get me into trouble?
If you're not moving, then I'll start moving!
Qin Yu took a deep breath.
He raised his hands, ignoring the soft touch from his arms.
Let's just say the water was deep, and he couldn't control it.
Arms spread, shield activated!
"Boom—!"
Golden light erupted, colliding with the shockwave of the lightning punishment.
Qin Yu, with all the women shielded in his embrace, stood firm as a rock.
…
After a period of chaos, the smoke and dust settled.
The Jade Screen Shield easily blocked the impact.
With this talent, he didn't even know what dodging was.
But at the same time, Qin Yu was pushed away by the three women.
"Cough cough...!"
Lumine was the first to react, turning her back.
Why did she pounce on Qin Yu?
The maid stomped her foot angrily.
"..."
She subconsciously touched her fluffy cat ears; they were still there.
No, why cat ears again!
"Is everyone okay?"
Qin Yu coughed lightly, feeling a bit guilty.
He subtly retracted his hands and moved them subconsciously.
The shield activation required spreading his arms, and the two women were by his sides.
So, that means...!
"..."
Columbia clutched her coat, her beautiful, long eyelashes trembling slightly.
Her pale skin was tinged with a faint blush, making her look stunningly beautiful.
She pursed her lips, sensing the curse rapidly eroding within her.
Immortals cannot fall in love.
But the more she interacted with Qin Yu...
"Little one, you must take responsibility for sister."
Yae Miko's lips curved into a smile, her rippling eyes fixed on Qin Yu, as if appraising a delicious dessert.
She was very satisfied with the taste of this dessert.
Did she mind having another bite?
The atmosphere was a bit strange.
"There are still some residual monsters."
Lumine said, breaking the awkward atmosphere.
"Let's go, head to the final ritual site."
Qin Yu nodded, wanting to forget the embarrassment of just now.
In his heart, he subconsciously began to compare.
The words of that Lady Great Tree King wife and Keqing cat...
No, what was he thinking!
He also pulled back the maid.
"Wait a moment."
Qin Yu glanced at the ongoing Sakura Bestowment, not forgetting the bet with the fox lady.
"Qin Yu, how did you do it?"
Yae Miko looked at Qin Yu, not concealing her curiosity.
"If you want to learn, I'll teach you."
Qin Yu said casually.
"So it's a private tutoring session...!"
Yae Miko lightly covered her chest, like a virtuous maiden about to be bullied, on the verge of tears.
"Heh heh... You're overthinking it."
Qin Yu turned around, facing the distance with his hands, forming a "[]" shape.
"Crack—"
At the same time, a piercing lightning beam condensed into a single eye, appearing above Qin Yu's head.
[Combat Talent: Malevolent Eye]
[When dealing damage to enemies, the Malevolent Eye attacks in coordination, dealing AoE Electro damage at the enemy's location.]
Simultaneously, a verdant divine light swept over the remaining monsters.
Near the Electro Pool, a series of imprints lit up.
[Combat Talent: All-Knowing]
Upon scanning, it deals minor Elemental damage.
But this tiny Elemental damage was like a fuse, igniting a continuous bombardment.
The Malevolent Eye, after the monsters took damage, indiscriminately rained down lightning punishment.
"Boom—!"
The wave of remaining monsters was engulfed by the lightning punishment before they could even react.
Triggering an Aggravate reaction!
But this was only the beginning.
"Boom—!"
The second boom was the attack from All-Knowing.
When the Malevolent Eye triggered an Aggravate reaction, all targets marked by All-Knowing again suffered damage from the Purification of the Three Karmas.
Spread Aggravate!
Do you understand the value of possessing both Electro and Dendro Archons?
"Boom—!"
The third boom was Sakura Bestowment delivering the finishing blow.
With all three talents deployed, the monster wave seemed like a perpetual motion machine, continuously triggering reactions and harming each other.
Soon, the terrifying monster wave was destroyed by various unknown area-of-effect damages, completely turning to dust.
The three women around Qin Yu fell silent.
It could be fought like this?
"..."
Beside the Electro Pool, Hanachirusato gently raised her head.
Residual memories flooded back, memories belonging to Lady Saiguu.
"Did… Miko… arrive?"
