"Familiar Mondstadt, I'm back..."
Lying in her little shop in Mondstadt, Kiana held a glass of juice in both hands and drank leisurely. It felt like she had been gone for a long time, but in truth, it hadn't been that long. Lumine had not even set off for Liyue yet.
But it should be soon!
"Another quiet and peaceful day!"
That was what Kiana thought... but the very next second, an explosion shattered her leisurely mood!
It seemed to have come from the Knights of Favonius.
Uh! As expected of free Mondstadt—freedom to explode every day.
Before long, a little red cutie came running over with a rapid patter of footsteps. Upon seeing Kiana, she hurriedly braked... and nearly fell over.
Fortunately, she steadied herself. With her big eyes fixed on Kiana, she greeted her with an adorable smile. "Good morning, Sister Kiana!"
"Morning, Klee!"
Kiana replied.
"Um... where's Fluffy? Isn't she here?"
Klee curiously looked around the shop but did not find Higokumaru.
"Higokumaru? She went back to her hometown."
Kiana answered little Klee with a perfectly serious expression. Meanwhile, she thought of Higokumaru, who was probably sleeping beneath the Bitter Love Tree in the inner world of the Heavenly Book.
The Bitter Love Tree radiated dense spiritual energy. Although it differed from Honkai energy, Higokumaru and the others also loved lying beside the tree. It made them feel very comfortable.
"Back to her hometown? But..."
But wasn't Fluffy's hometown in another world? She could go back there?
"All right, don't dwell on that. Klee, would you like a supply crate? Since you're my first customer today, how about I give you a 5% discount?"
"Today's featured supply crate has [Vikrant the Starshatterer], an unprecedented particle cannon... It can take your fish-blasting experience to the next level!"
