Chapter 328 - Lumine: The Opportunity Has Come

"Who is she?" Looking at Miko beside her and then at Morax, Ei asked this subconsciously.

She could sense that this person named Kiana was not simple.

"Since Miss Miko has already heard of her, I will leave it to Miss Miko to explain. I will not see you off."

After saying this, Morax immediately vanished from before the two of them.

Actually, if the Electro Archon had met Miss Kiana, He would have said something.

But from the answer just now, He already knew that the Electro Archon had neither heard of nor met Miss Kiana, so He decided to say nothing.

Anyway, Kaito likely has his own plans, so He shouldn't get involved.

Huh?

Me?

Say what?

Not expecting the Geo Archon to leave the explanation of Kiana to her, Miko was stunned.

Just now, the Geo Archon's tone clearly implied He had something to say, yet it turned into her having to explain.

What is this situation???

And more importantly, she didn't know much more about Kiana herself; she had only met her recently. How was she supposed to explain?

"Miko." Just as Miko was still bewildered, Ei called her name.

"Well... she is also Kaito's girlfriend."

Seeing that Ei obviously expected her to say something, Miko answered this way after a brief thought.

There was no helping it; she didn't understand Kiana either.

"Morax already said that just now."

Unable to stop Herself from raising an eyebrow, Ei felt as if Miko was hiding something.

Crap...

Ei seems to suspect I'm hiding something...

Looking at Ei before her, Miko instantly felt the situation was dire, but she truly didn't know anything more about Kiana.

Is the Geo Archon setting me up?

No!

He is definitely setting me up!

At this moment, Miko really wanted to cry but had no tears. Still, she spoke up: "Actually, I don't know much more either. I only met Kiana recently and know next to nothing. I don't know why the Geo Archon asked me to explain; I really don't know."

After speaking, Miko waved her hands, looking very helpless.

It seems Ei still suspects me...

Seeing Ei remain silent, Miko decided to say a bit more. "Just now, the Geo Archon clearly looked like He had something to say. I was curious myself about what He would say, but then He pushed it onto me. I really don't know what to say."

Despite Miko's words, Ei remained silent, though it was obvious She was thinking—just not what She was thinking about.

The Anemo Archon...

The person who looks exactly like Makoto...

And that Kiana mentioned by Morax...

What on earth is going on?

The people around that young man are all so complex...

Moreover...

I wonder what Morax wanted to say just now?

Standing there, Ei decided She had to find Morax and ask for a clear explanation.

"You go back first, Miko. I have other matters to attend to."

After saying this, Ei vanished from in front of Miko.

Eh?

Other matters?

Is She going to Mondstadt?

Or continuing to look for the Geo Archon?

After Ei disappeared, Miko looked around subconsciously and couldn't help but think this.

But fortunately, Ei seemed to have believed what she just said.

Of course, she hadn't lied anyway.

Forget it...

I'll go back and tell Kaito about the situation here first...

After thinking about it, Miko decided to return to Inazuma for now.

Since Ei had already told her to go back, she obviously couldn't continue following.

Afterwards, Miko also vanished from the spot.

Inazuma.

"Full of food and drink. I'm going to go for a stroll first."

As the group finished eating and was walking outside, Wendy suddenly said this.

After Wendy spoke, Kiana also spoke up.

"Then I'll go for a stroll too. I haven't looked around since arriving in this nation."

Both of them are going for a stroll?

Doesn't that mean Kaito will be left alone?

Silently looking at Kiana and Wendy, Lumine hadn't expected the opportunity she thought of earlier to arrive so quickly.

She had originally thought chances to be alone with Kaito were very rare, but now the chance was here.

However, she also knew that Kaito might go with Wendy and Kiana, in which case there would be no chance for now.

"Yeah, yeah, we should look around more! Maybe buy some delicious food too, hehe." Hearing Wendy and Kiana were going for a stroll, Paimon immediately thought of buying food.

It had to be said, Paimon could connect many things to food.

Sigh...

This guy thinks about eating all day...

I really want to sell her and use the money to buy food for her...

Glancing at Paimon, who obviously wanted Wendy and Kiana to buy her food, Lumine really wanted to sell her.

However, if Paimon were really gone, she would be quite unaccustomed to it.

"Buying things? Then do you want to come along, Paimon?" Kiana suddenly asked Paimon.

Huh?

Kiana, don't do this...

Not expecting Kiana to actually want to buy food for Paimon, Lumine was surprised, but she couldn't say anything.

But soon, she realized this might actually be good.

Because in that case, only she and Kaito would be left. Such opportunities were very rare.

Usually, Kaito was accompanied by Wendy, Kiana, Acheron, or Miko, so situations where he was alone basically never happened.

And now, such an opportunity was coming.

Paimon...

Don't you refuse...

I have things to ask Kaito...

At this moment, Lumine was genuinely a bit worried Paimon would refuse.

Before, she would have thought Paimon definitely wouldn't refuse such a thing. But for some reason, she was now worried Paimon might.

"Eh? Really?" Not expecting Kiana to let her tag along, Paimon was also surprised.

Initially, she had just said it casually and hadn't really expected Kiana or Wendy to buy her things. This was completely unexpected.

"If you want to buy food, just come along. I'm too lazy to bring stuff back," Kiana said in response to Paimon.

"Then Lumine... I..."

"Go on, go on, I can't stand you. But don't buy anything too expensive, or I'll sell you to pay Kiana back." Looking at Paimon, who was looking her way, Lumine answered seemingly helplessly.

"I won't, I won't! I'll just buy some convenient snacks, hehe." Now Paimon was happy.
