"Well... let me look at the records. Yes, a stranger came to Mondstadt recently. The stranger has blond hair like you, but his clothes are very unusual."

"Blonde hair... Stranger with unusual clothes. I feel like I've heard this description once before..." Paimon said doubtfully.

"Wait, wait, could it be...?"

"Could it be...!"

……

Ying and Paimon both held milk tea in their hands and looked at this scene very indifferently.

"Is brother going to appear so soon?"

"He came to Mondstadt, didn't he come to you specifically?"

The two continued to look down.

……

"Does that stranger's face look like... does it look like her?!" Pamon pointed at Ying and said.

"Eh? And the Honor Knight? There's quite a big difference. He's a very tall man, and he also wears an eyepatch."

"It seems that he is just a distant relative of Kaia." Ying sighed.

"Hey, what does this have to do with Kaia? Why does the eyepatch become a proof of kinship?" Paimon complained.

"I don't know the relationship between that stranger and Mr. Kaiya, because he rejected the association's invitation."

"But if you are interested, you can go find her. Maybe... he will be willing to accept your commission."

Catherine provided corresponding information.

After the conversation is over,

The mission in this scene officially begins.

[Chapter 1, Act [-] announcement, Deinsreib, has been started. 】

He asked the west wind knight and the blacksmith Wagner, who was guarding the gate, about the stranger's whereabouts.

According to Wagner.

The stranger wanted to buy a batch of forging materials from him, but even Wagner had never heard of almost all the materials the man mentioned.

Finally, I told Ying that the man sometimes went to [Angel’s Gift] to drink.

Ying and Paimon immediately decided to wait and see.

Wait on the second floor of the tavern.

Sure enough... I waited for the blond man at night.

After coming down from the second floor, the blond man was already sitting in the corner seat.

Ying tried to communicate with him.

"Hello, I am an adventurer from the Adventurers Association..."

The blond man still had his back to her and didn't even turn his head.

There was no feedback on this sentence.

"Hello, I am an honorary knight of the Knights of the West Wind..."

"..."

"Well...I am a traveler..."

The man finally reacted to this sentence.

The vicissitudes of life's voice spoke: "Traveller...hum, why do you want to travel?"

"In search of lost relatives."

"That's a pretty good reason... Sit down, sit across from me."

The man's face also appeared in front of the camera.

She has short golden hair and blue eyes.

The expression is indifferent.

The face around his right eye is wearing a half mask. I don't know what the purpose of this mask is.

……

"It's a new face I've never seen before."

"I thought it was my brother. Thinking about it carefully... it is indeed unlikely that he would appear directly in Mondstadt."

"Could this person be the name mentioned in the mission - Dains Reib?"

Ying speculated.

I guess the new plot is related to him.

Both in terms of his attire and behavior.

Just a look like "I have many stories" is written on his face.

……

"This little thing next to you..." Dine looked at Paimon next to him.

At this point, two dialogue options appear.

"It's emergency food."

"Best companions."

Ying decisively chose the first option without hesitation.

The opportunity to persecute Paimon in the game must not be missed.

Paimon: "..."

It's almost numb.

"It would be nice to have someone to accompany you when traveling."

Then, Ying expressed his intention.

After Deinsreib introduced himself, he asked for payment in advance.

"500 moras, and three questions."

"that's it?"

"that's it."

"Do I have to answer them all correctly? What happens if I get them wrong?"

“There are no right or wrong [answers] to a question, they are just indications of different [attitudes].”

"I just want to know your choice, you just need to answer it."

"I see.".

Chapter 178 Paimon, when will you become a mature big sister?

"Why do you think this guy named Dainsreib... speaks so hard to understand? It's like guessing a riddle..."

Paimon scratched his hair.

"Also, his words and deeds are all strange."

"Well...it's decided, let's call him the Riddler from now on!"

Ying smiled helplessly.

Paimon's ability to give characters nicknames is now well-known.

While in Mondstadt,

He gave Wendy the nickname "The Singer".

Diluc was nicknamed "The Righteous Man".

Now they have become popular and have become many players’ nicknames for Wendy and Diluc.

Because of this incident, they were a little afraid to see Grandpa Diluc.

It's even more extreme when it comes to Liyue.

Because Xingqiu is obsessed with reading and ignores her, Paimon calls Xingqiu a nerd.

Call Zhongli a social waste.

Zhongli also derived the nickname "Waste Man Making Machine" from this.

I don’t know when Paimon will also get other nicknames besides [Emergency Food]...

…………

Dine’s three questions are:

"Who is the key to solving the dragon plague in Mondstadt?"

"After losing the gods, who should protect Liyue Port?"

"In this world, there are people who have obtained the [Eye of God] and people who have not obtained the [Eye of God]. To the gods, which one of these two types of people is more important?"

Ying’s answers are:

"it's me."

"Everyone in Liyue Port."

"Maybe...it doesn't matter."

After getting Ying's answer.

Dain nodded slightly.

Just like what he said just now, he didn't care about right or wrong, but said with emotion:

"Sure enough... you are very similar to him."

"What do you mean? Who [him] are you talking about?"

Dai Yin certainly became the Riddler.

Silence on the issue.

However, now that things have happened, Ying can already guess some clues.

The [him] here probably refers to his brother.

It's an instinctive feeling.

Then, Dyne changed the subject.

Says travelers can now entrust him with tasks.

However, he only accepts commissions related to the [Abyss Order].

"I am traveling just like you. You are looking for your relatives, and I am traveling against the abyss."

"I came to Mondstadt this time to follow the traces of [Apostle of the Abyss]..."

"[Apostle of the Abyss]?" Paimon was a little confused about this title.

"It is a more twisted monster in the abyss, the leader of the abyss mages."

"According to some clues I have, the Abyss Order once re-entered [the Temple of the Eagle of the West Wind]."

"Let's meet there. Your doubts about the abyss may be answered there."

…………

"Apostle of the Abyss...is this the tall monster we encountered before?" Paimon asked Ying.

"Well, I went to the void world with Boss Lin before, and the guy who attacked us must be him."
