Seeing "Klee" behaving like this—her attention not fixed on him and Aether, but instead playing hide-and-seek with Eula—
Su Yuan thought to himself that even though "Klee" had been corrupted by the eerie force, she was still just a child who liked to play games like this…
All he could do was silently pray for Eula, hoping she wouldn't be found by "Klee" too quickly…
But soon, another thought struck Su Yuan: even if Eula wasn't found within the time limit and successfully entered her eerie state—so what?
The grudge-bearing "Eula" might succeed in killing "Klee," ending the crisis of her eerie state, but Jean and Klee themselves would still be completely dead…
Su Yuan let out a quiet sigh.
In the end, was the only option to try triggering a death rewind?
It was undoubtedly a gamble, but one he had no choice but to take…
Just as Su Yuan was lost in thought, a surge of powerful eerie energy burst out from a nearby room—it was the eerie "Eula"!
This time, the delay before Eula entered her eerie state seemed even shorter than Su Yuan had expected…
"So… it's finally come to this, huh?" Aether, standing beside Su Yuan, spoke helplessly.
"How could cheerful little Klee suddenly fall into an eerie state like this?"
"Just as Jean once said, Klee isn't the kind of mischievous child who never listens. She should be able to understand that this is a special situation, an emergency—she shouldn't have brought up going fish-blasting at a time like this…"
"Unless… besides fish-blasting, is there some other reason that could have pushed Klee into eerie state?"
"That's exactly what I've been wondering…" Su Yuan replied.
"If it wasn't about stopping her from fish-blasting, then maybe… it was about solitary confinement? After all, Klee hates being locked in solitary just as much."
"But didn't we already talk it over earlier? We agreed we wouldn't just casually throw Klee into solitary again…"
Deep in thought, Su Yuan turned to watch the battle between "Klee" and "Eula."
At that moment, "Eula" was wielding her greatsword, swinging it straight at "Klee," while "Klee" refused to back down, controlling the eerie flames to clash head-on with "Eula"…
"Aether, who do you think will win this fight between Eerie Klee and Eerie Eula?" Su Yuan asked.
"It should be Eula. She's the Spindrift Knight of the Knights of Favonius, and she's far more experienced in combat. Klee's still just a child—she probably can't match Eula."
Aether analyzed aloud:
"Besides, if even Eula can't defeat Klee, then who else could possibly resolve the crisis that Klee brings?"
Hearing Aether's analysis, Su Yuan also nodded.
"Let's hope so…"
But just then, a faint groan and wail came from inside the meeting room.
Paimon's face suddenly lit up with realization as she spoke:
"Ah! Did we forget about Guild Master Cyrus?"
"He just had his leg blown off by Klee and then passed out, but it seems he isn't dead yet…"
"His wound is still bleeding—shouldn't we treat it quickly?"
At once, Su Yuan and Aether hurried back into the meeting room, found some cloth strips, and gave Cyrus's wound some emergency treatment.
But just as they finished bandaging him, a series of deafening explosions—BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!—erupted from the corridor outside!
Su Yuan and Aether rushed out to check, only to find "Eula" already struck down by "Klee."
Her body, scorched black from the bombs, lay trembling uncontrollably on the ground…
"Hahahaha, Sister Eula! Even though you're the Spindrift Knight of the Knights of Favonius, don't forget that I'm the Spark Knight—my title isn't for show!"
Looking at the Eula she had defeated, "Klee" laughed with delight, speaking in a cheerful yet chilling tone:
"Did you really think Mondstadt's strongest combat force was just a joke???"
This outcome was clearly beyond what Su Yuan and Aether had expected…
"Klee" had actually defeated "Eula" head-on???
"In her normal state, Klee definitely wouldn't be Eula's match…" Su Yuan murmured thoughtfully.
"But after entering eerie state, one's strength isn't just tied to negative emotions—it also seems to depend on race…"
"Klee, being of the long-eared elf race, inheriting Alice's bloodline—a long-lived kind—already has racial talents that surpass Eula. That may be the reason why she could win…"
"But still, I feel like the title 'Spark Knight' has gotten a little old…"
"Klee" looked at "Eula" and continued with a twisted grin:
"So, how about from today on… you call me the 'Cremation Knight' instead!"
"Burn all of my enemies to ashes—cremate them all!!!"
As "Klee" spoke, she unleashed the flames of eerie power, madly scorching the fallen "Eula."
"Eula," in turn, kept releasing her own eerie power, struggling desperately with the last of her strength to resist…
"Su Yuan, use your unbeatable intel and think of something!!"
Seeing this scene, Aether cried out in panic:
"If this keeps up, Eula's going to be burned alive by Klee!"
"And if no one can stop Klee, our fate—and the fate of everyone else in Mondstadt—will be the same!!!"
Looking at the frantic Aether, Su Yuan actually didn't have any good plan either…
The situation was already completely out of his control, and with Jean already sacrificed, the only option left seemed to be triggering a death rewind…
Taking a deep breath, Su Yuan said to Aether:
"Charging in with everything I've got… is my only way."
"Su Yuan, what kind of plan is that? Isn't that just throwing your life away?" Aether asked in confusion.
"Yeah! If we stay here now, we'll just be adding more casualties. Why don't we retreat first and warn the people of Mondstadt to evacuate?" Paimon also suggested.
But when Aether and Paimon saw the unwavering determination in Su Yuan's eyes, they realized he wasn't joking…
"Don't worry. I'll save Jean. I'll save Klee too!"
With a smile, Su Yuan channeled Anemo energy, accelerating as he charged straight toward "Klee"!
Seeing Su Yuan suddenly rush at her, "Klee" snapped in irritation:
"Can't you see I'm in the middle of cremating someone? What are you barging in for?"
As she spoke, "Klee" hurled several bombs at Su Yuan.
But to her surprise, Su Yuan actually mimicked Jean's Anemo Gale Blade, pulling all the bombs together…
And then… he swallowed them all whole!!!
