This kind of Demon God-level power would likely be difficult for the people present to handle using normal means.
So Lyney immediately decided to prepare to enter a state of Eerie to fight against Orobashi...
However, Su Yuan noticed one detail: although Orobashi appeared here, he was only watching the group and showed no intention to attack proactively.
"How is Watatsumi Island doing right now?" Orobashi asked the group.
Hearing this, Su Yuan suddenly recalled that Orobashi is fundamentally different from demon gods like Osial—not an evil god who commits all sorts of wicked acts...
On the contrary, although Orobashi looks somewhat fierce and terrifying, he deeply cares for the people of Watatsumi Island, truly a benevolent deity.
"Watatsumi Island is fine now, peacefully coexisting with Narukami Island and the Shogunate," Su Yuan replied.
"That's good, that's good. Then my sacrifice won't have been in vain..."
Orobashi spoke somewhat relieved.
Then, Orobashi looked up at the distant sky and slowly said, "But I shouldn't have come back to life here. My fate is to die carrying those secrets, without affecting the people of Watatsumi Island. I must leave them with the last spark..."
"She... has already come..."
"To die here under her 'Musou no Hitotachi' is my only destiny..."
Su Yuan and Aether followed Orobashi's gaze and saw thunder flashing in the distance.
Then, the figure of the Raiden Shogun appeared!
Everyone watched the Raiden Shogun warily.
Lyney and Lynette had already begun to distance themselves, preparing to enter their eerie state to fight...
"Everyone, there's no need to worry—it's me..." Beelzebul spoke softly.
"The one currently in control of this body is not the Shogun puppet, but me, Beelzebul..."
"I'm sorry to have startled you. I've returned."
Beelzebul then turned to look at Orobashi and said, "Back then, you launched an attack eastward without warning. Looking back now, it seems there was more to the story... All these years, I've wanted to know—why did you do that?"
"Even if there was more to it, what difference would it have made? The war was brutal, the people suffered terribly... Even your beloved general and close friend, the tengu Sasayuri, lost her life in that conflict..."
"To die by your hand is what I deserve. It is the fate written in my destiny..."
"On the contrary, I should thank you. After my death, you did not carry out a massacre against the people of Watatsumi Island..."
"The current me no longer wishes to cause unnecessary bloodshed..."
"That's why, ever since I was resurrected and awakened, I've remained dormant underground—waiting for your arrival..."
"Waiting for you to kill me once more..."
Su Yuan looked at Orobashi, at a loss for words...
This guy—could he really go to such lengths for the sake of the people of Watatsumi Island?
To put it simply, the reason Orobashi launched that eastward invasion back then was essentially a performance—a way to make his own death seem more 'justified'...
Because Orobashi had read the contents of the Before Sun and Moon, and learned the truth about the world of Teyvat—thus, in a way, he was sentenced to death by The Heavenly Principles...
In order to protect the people of Watatsumi Island, he chose to end his own life in such a way—relocating the people of Enkanomiya to the surface world of Watatsumi Island, all for the sake of guarding Teyvat's greatest secret and preventing more people from learning the truth...
But now, to Su Yuan, those once unspeakable secrets didn't seem like such a big deal anymore...
Back when Su Yuan had first crossed over, he was still worried that his arrival might cause a massive disruption to Teyvat's original timeline...
Yet in the end, due to the existence of the Eerie forces, Teyvat had already become completely different from the game he once knew...
What's more, it was now basically confirmed that The Heavenly Principles had suffered serious injuries and had fallen into slumber—how could it possibly have the time or energy to care about Orobashi?
"Ahem... Orobashi... if you're determined to die just because of this matter, I really think there's no need for that..."
Su Yuan coughed twice, cleared his throat, and began to speak:
"Isn't it just that nonsense from Before Sun and Moon? What's the big deal? None of that is even considered a secret anymore!"
"If the purpose of The Heavenly Principles is to maintain the stability of Teyvat, then with how messed up everything's gotten because of the Eerie, why hasn't it shown up to take control of the situation?"
"The Heavenly Principles is already in slumber, barely able to protect itself—how could it possibly have time to worry about you?"
"In today's Inazuma, all sorts of people are being resurrected for reasons unknown. Very few have retained their original consciousness like you. Since you've managed to come back to life, you should treasure this second chance. Go back to Watatsumi Island and see your people for yourself!"
Hearing Su Yuan's words, Orobashi was stunned into silence, and Beelzebul followed up by speaking:
"Orobashi… to tell the truth, I didn't come here for you at all…"
Beelzebul turned her head toward the raging battle between Ioroi and the resurrected Kitsune Saiguu, gritting her teeth slightly as she spoke:
"If only Kitsune Saiguu was like you… how wonderful that would be."
"But unfortunately, the one who has returned now… is no longer her."
"I will destroy her with my own hands, sever this karma, and let her rest in peace!"
"Gathering countless true words, pouring the wish power of a hundred eyes into one blade that severs all curses—this is the Dream Severing Slash!"
As she spoke, a terrifying surge of Electro energy erupted from her body!
She walked slowly toward Kitsune Saiguu, and from her chest, she drew a blade condensed from incredibly intense Electro energy!
"Ioroi, stand down!"
Beelzebul shouted, and Ioroi, feeling the overwhelming power radiating from her, looked at Kitsune Saiguu with deep reluctance—then silently stepped aside…
"Once, I unleashed the Musou no Hitotachi here…"
"Now, I shall strike with the Musou Isshin!!!"
"Kitsune Saiguu, this is my newfound understanding of the pinnacle of swordsmanship—witness it with your own eyes!"
But in the very next moment, just as the terrifying thunderous strike was about to be unleashed, Beelzebul suddenly showed a look of shock—and fury.
Then, with a disturbingly unnatural motion, her hand shifted the blade's direction, redirecting that overwhelming slash toward the people behind her!
And at the center of that attack's trajectory… was Aether!
"Shogun puppet! So you weren't using your full strength to resist me just now! You were never fully under my control!"
Beelzebul shouted in rage:
"Have you been… waiting for this very moment all along???"
