[Aether: An Aeon?!]
[Diluc: Traveler, what did you dream about?]
[Venti: Yes, you only rested for a little while; how did you dream of something related to an Aeon?]
[Rosaria: Since Takagi said he can solve it, he should be able to answer this question.]
[Takagi: This is probably related to the Traveler's personal constitution. As everyone knows, the Traveler can use elemental power even without a Vision. So, it's understandable that her constitution would attract certain... other things.]
[Arataki Itto: What? The Traveler can use elemental power without relying on a Vision?]
[Kuki Shinobu: Boss, did you only just notice now?]
[Yae Miko: A special constitution that attracts "other things," huh. That is indeed a reason. But what exactly did the Traveler attract?]
[Furina: Could it be some kind of powerful treasure?]
[Takagi: What, do you want it?]
[Furina: If I say I want it, will you give it to me?]
[Takagi: I'm afraid you wouldn't dare to take it if I gave it to you.]
[Furina: Just kidding! How could there be anything I wouldn't dare to take? Just bring it, and I'll accept it.]
[Takagi: Even a "treasure" that could destroy Fontaine?]
[Furina: That's right... Wait, what did you say? You said that thing can destroy Fontaine?]
[Navia: I didn't see that wrong, did I? Something that can destroy Fontaine?]
[Neuvillette: Furina, I think you should forget about this "treasure."]
[Furina: It... it's fine, isn't it? With you and me here, everything is a small matter... right?]
[Arlecchino: Please say less, Lady Furina.]
"The thing that the Traveler dreamed of is something that can destroy a country. Takagi, will Lumine's safety not be affected?" Jean asked worriedly.
[Takagi: She only dreamed about something related to it. It's not like she's actually talking to it or touching it; there won't be any danger.]
"So, it's something that can talk? And as long as you talk to it or touch it, there will be danger?" Paimon exclaimed.
[Aether: As a guide, shouldn't you be by the Traveler's side right now, Takagi?]
"Yeah, Takagi, you should come back quickly. I'm a little worried," Paimon said.
[Takagi: I'll be back soon. Don't worry, little Paimon. The Traveler isn't as fragile as you think.]
Even if the Stellaron really talked to Lumine, Takagi didn't think it could bewitch her. First of all, Lumine didn't have a wish to make to it. Secondly, even if she wanted to pursue strength, Lumine had other ways to do so. How could the inexplicable bewitchment of a Stellaron possibly deceive her?
Even if the Stellaron did succeed in deceiving her, Takagi could pull her back. After all, Lumine wasn't like the current Supreme Guardian, Cocolia—a woman who had fallen completely into the Stellaron's lies after experiencing a long period of despair.
"Okay, I believe you. I'll wait for you here, Takagi," Lumine said. Compared to Aether's anxiety, Lumine, who had spent time with Takagi, was quite relaxed.
[Lisa: It seems the little darling trusts Takagi very much now.]
[Ningguang: After all, they've traveled together for a while. Lumine knows Takagi much better than we do.]
[Charlotte: Whether or not Takagi is trustworthy is important. But right now, I'm still more concerned about the thing Takagi mentioned that can destroy Fontaine.]
[Alhaitham: Something that can destroy Fontaine might also be able to destroy Sumeru.]
[Clorinde: Takagi, can you reveal a little bit of information?]
[Yae Miko: Yes, we don't even know the name of this thing; it's too intriguing.]
[Takagi: Its name is the "Stellaron." The Fragmentum creatures you saw through the livestream, such as the Outworld Blaze and the Incineration Shadow, are related to this.]
[Furina: What? It's just something that can summon things like the Outworld Blaze? Something like that can't possibly destroy Fontaine.]
[Venti: I think this Stellaron won't be that simple, and the so-called Fragmentum creatures won't be that simple either.]
[Diluc: Fragmentum... I've heard this word many times, but what exactly is it?]
[Takagi: The so-called Fragmentum... to put it simply, it's a special spatial rift created by the Stellaron. These spatial rifts will continuously give birth to monsters. Unless the Fragmentum itself disappears, the monsters will not. To make the Fragmentum disappear, the Stellaron must be sealed or destroyed.]
[Takagi: I also have to mention that the Outworld Blaze Jean and Lumine fought before can only be considered a common Fragmentum creature. As I said before, it is just like the universe version of a Mitachurl. Above that, there are universe versions of Lawachurls and even higher-level beings.]
[Takagi: When I have time later, I'll take Lumine and Jean to see the Fragmentum. If we can encounter beings like the Guardian's Shadow or the Decaying Shadow, you'll probably have a deeper understanding of their strength.]
Fontaine
"Neuvillette, what Takagi said must be false, right? What Stellaron, what Fragmentum... they definitely can't destroy Fontaine, right?" Furina rushed into Neuvillette's office and nervously asked him.
"I don't know," Neuvillette shook his head. "We haven't witnessed the Fragmentum with our own eyes, nor have we witnessed the beings Takagi mentioned, such as the Guardian's Shadow. Therefore, I cannot make a definitive statement."
Furina: "I knew it! This definitely isn't true."
Neuvillette: "However, I don't think Takagi is someone who talks nonsense. What he said should have some basis."
Furina: "This... Neuvillette, you're not serious, are you? I absolutely refuse to admit that a Stellaron can destroy Fontaine!"
Neuvillette put down his pen, turned his head, and looked directly into Furina's eyes. "As long as you don't crave the Stellaron, whether or not it can destroy Fontaine doesn't matter. Anyway, it's just something from outside Teyvat."
Upon hearing this, Furina blinked and said with a troubled expression, "But doesn't that mean I'm afraid of that Stellaron?"
Neuvillette: "For the sake of Fontaine, it's better for you to know what fear is."
Furina: "But... but I'm the Hydro Archon. As a god, I shouldn't have emotions like fear!"
Neuvillette glanced at Furina, who had her hands on her hips with a proud look, and sighed slightly. He was temporarily at a loss regarding his Archon's personality. So, he focused his attention on Paimon's livestream, wanting to see if Takagi would give any more hints.
Unfortunately, at this time, Takagi had temporarily left the forum to focus on other matters.
