Ei opened her eyes and looked at Makoto.
Many emotions could be seen passing through both twin sisters' eyes. Happiness, sadness, pain, surprise, joy, regret and so on. They never expected to see each other again after Makoto's death.
Ei opened her mouth to say something but her mouth was dry as didn't know where to start.
Primis: How impressive.
However, Primis words snapped both of them out of their daze as he walked over to Ei and took a seat beside her.
In return, Ei face turned pale as she lowered her head with her body trembling in primal fear.
Even though Makoto was worried about her sister, she knew no matter what she will do, everything will come to fruitless. Hence, she could also only lower her head while praying inwardly that her Lord didn't hurt Ei.
Primis: My fear has been deep rooted in the heart of everyone in this world. This means including you too. Yet, to meet your sister, you suppress that fear for yours and decided to come here. Even when being fully aware that I will also be here. You know what, my impression of you rose a few levels.
Saying this Primis brought his hand forward and tucked one of Ei's hairs behind her ear. Ei on the other hand remained silent and let Primis did what he want. Just as Primis said, she knew the risk of coming here. Yet, she can't stop herself after realizing that her sister had been revived.
Primis: You know what. A reward is needed for this courage of yours.
CRACKLE!!
CRACKLE!!
Once his words fell, thunder started crackling around Ei as she widened her eyes and her head leaned backward.
The pressure in the pavilion started increasing but then Primis waved his hand and dispersed it since he didn't want others to sense it.
Soon, a handle of the sword came out of Ei's chest. To be more precisely from her heart.
Primis lightly grabbed it and pulled it out.
Ei started gasping heavily for breath while looking at "Musou Isshin" in Primis hand. She was having hard time believing that someone can took out her main weapon this easily.
He then started caressing the sword.
A minute later, he stopped and moved his index finger over it.
HISS!!!
The next second, the entire sword got engulfed in blue flames. Those flames sent a chill down their spine. Especially Makoto since she had witnessed how these flames burnt the entire Divine Nail in Dragonspine to nothing.
A few seconds later.
The flames dispersed and Musou Isshin appeared. Now, it was shining even more brightly than before.
When the twin sisters were looking at it with astonishment, a pulse of power was released from the sword.
.
.
.
Morax who was thinking whether he should meet with Primis and Makoto was the first one to sense it. In the next moment, this expression turned grave.
Adepti were the second to sensed that and their face turned pale.
The last ones were the mortals. Fear gripped their heart and they felt as if death was coming for them.
Because of that a commotion soon spread throughout Liyue.
.
.
.
Primis didn't mind even if others sensed the power of Musou Isshin. Though he made sure that no one will be able to pinpoint their location.
Primis: Here.
Hearing this Ei extended her trembling hand and held the handle of the sword.
Then she felt a terrifying power inside it. Which once unleashed can destroy everything. And Primis next words confirmed it.
Primis: Be careful while using it. Because with its current might, it won't be a problem for you to split an entire nation in two.
Ei: !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Makoto: !!!!!!!!!!!
The sisters shivered hearing that. One should know that Ei's strongest move "Musou no Hitotachi" cut an entire island in two. That fame of her were known to almost everyone in Inazuma. People from other nations were also aware of it somewhat. But now with this, it won't be exaggerating to call Electro Archon had become the strongest of "The Seven".
Ei: I…can't take it.
Primis: Is it because this sword was Makoto's?
Feeling surprised that Primis knew about it, Ei nodded.
Ei: This Sword is original Makoto's weapon and created from her might. I only started using it when I lose her. Now that she is revived, it should return back its rightful owner.
She said while looking at Makoto who on the other hand smiled and shook her head.
Makoto: No, Ei. It's yours. I want to give it you long ago. That's why I sealed a part of my consciousness in it before my death so that when the time comes, I will let you know about.
Ei: …Why?
Makoto: Because I know after my death, you will change and will seek out the way for eternity.
Primis: You were just running from the truth.
At this time, Primis spoke. He looked directly into Ei's eye and continued.
Primis: The death of your sister affected you greatly. You just used an illusion to deceive yourself that eternity is the only way to go against Celestia. Though in reality you were just hiding inside the sword, to close yourself from everything that was happening into the outside world while letting your puppet fulfil that last order you gave.
Pausing for a second to let her digest his words, Primis spoke.
Primis: Hundreds of years have passed since that cataclysm. However, your heart is still stand still at that time. You haven't move forward.
Ei: ...…
By the time, Primis was finished Ei looked down and didn't speak for some time. She no longer cared how he knew so much things about her. Her concentration was only on the last thing he said.
Ei: I…I...
She tried her best but words just remained in her throat refused to come out.
Primis noticed that Ei's eyes had turned watery as drops of tears started falling from the corner of eyes one by one.
He then gave an eye to Makoto before standing and leaving. Giving some private time to the sisters.
Once he left, Makoto walked over to Ei. The tears that she was suppressing in Primis presence burst out as both sisters hugged each other and started crying, letting out all the pain, sorrow, and sadness in their heart.
.

.

When Primis entered the streets of Liyue again, he felt Divine sense. Clearly, indicating that Morax and other Adepti were looking for the source of power released by "Musou Isshin".
He didn't give it much thought and strolled around.
'Primis: It's been a long time since I was alone by myself.'
Most of the time Primis had someone by his side. His empress, wife, guards, battle maids, daughters, spirits, guardians, pets and some others. But not right now.
He didn't mind since such thing was rare and he enjoy such moment.
He looked around and saw the commotion among the people started to settle down thanks to the guards who hurriedly moved and calmed the crowd. Reassuring them that there was no danger.
Walking past them, Primis decided to complete some more things.
.
.
.
Bubu Pharmacy.
It is a Pharmacy renowned as the "finest pharmacy in all of Liyue." The pharmacy is known to be quite busy during most of the time.
Entering through the door at the eastern side of the building allows entry to the back room, which contains living quarters.
.
.
.
Entering the Pharmacy, Primis walked over to the reception that seemed to be empty.
By the time, he reached it, a stoic girl voice greeted him.
???: Welcome to Bubu Pharmacy.
When he reached the counter, a little girl with light purple hair reaching her shoulders at the sides with a long plait in the back, pale skin, and magenta-coloured eyes popped out of nowhere.
She had several talismans stuck on her purple themed clothing, indicating that she was not human.
???: Welcome to Bubu Pharmacy, Sir. I am Qiqi. Once upon a time, Qiqi died. Then, Qiqi was saved by the adepti. Now, Qiqi is a zombie.
Primis: I see. Anyway, I am here to buy some materials.
Qiqi: Which ones?
Primis: Like Qingxin, Horsetail, Lotus Head, Mist Flower Corolla, Flaming Flowing Stamen, Violetgrass...
The zombie heard everything calmly as Primis kept on giving one name after another. When he was done, Qiqi nodded her head.
Qiqi: We have all of them. How many do you need?
Primis: How many you have in stock?
Qiqi: We have hundred of each of them.
Primis: What if you add the one you are keeping in warehouse.
Qiqi: ...…
The lavender haired girl become silent. There were really a lot in warehouse but it was for the next following days, weeks and months.
Primis: You can keep the number that will help you go through this month. Rest I will buy at double price. What do you think? With that amount, you will be able to full your stock in month again.
Qiqi: ...…Give Qiqi a moment to calculate.
Primis: Go on.
She then left to count the stock in the warehouse while Primis waited patiently.
30 minutes later.
Qiqi returned and gave Primis the list contained every material and their count.
Qiqi: It will be 902,977,422 moras.
Primis: Um. I want to see the goods first to confirm.
Qiqi: Follow Qiqi.
The little girl then took Primis to the warehouse behind and showed the stuff to him.
Primis gaze fell on all of them before he nodded.
Primis: The quantity and quality are both fine.
Qiqi: Tell Qiqi the location, we will send all of them there.
Primis: No need for that.
He said before bringing his hand in front.
CRACKLE!!
Blue flames appeared out of nowhere and condensed in a False Serenitea Pot in his hand.
Witnessing this, even Qiqi who had stoic look all this time couldn't help but show a surprised expression.
Next, Primis pointed the pot in front and all the stuff got absorbed into it in matter of few seconds.
By the time, every material was absorbed, the warehouse became empty. Primis put the pot away and waved his hand.
Space wrapped before a river of mora came out.
Jingle!!
Tinkle!!
Jingle!!
Tinkle!!
Jingle!!
Tinkle!!
....
…
A small hill of mora was made by the time Primis was done.
Primis: Here. With this, the payment has been done.
Qiqi could only nod with dumbfounded expression.
Primis: By the way, can you collect more of these materials by the next month. More than you have before. I will buy everything. And...
Taking not a paper, Primis list down some new materials before passing it to Qiqi.
Primis: These too.
Qiqi went through each of them one by one before raising her head to meet Primis.
Qiqi: These things are rare and expensive.
Primis: I will pay two times.
Qiqi: Ok. Bubu Pharmacy will see what it can do.
Primis: Here's the advance.
He waved his hand and before long another hill of mora appeared.
The zombie girl didn't know what to say anymore. Now that Primis had given the advance, they can't refuse it and had to make sure they meet the customer needs.
Primis: Do you sell seeds?
Qiqi: I am sorry, Sir. We don't deal with seeds.
Primis: What if the sufficient amount is paid?
Before she could continue, another hill was made.
Primis: Here's another advance.
Qiqi: ...W-We will see what we can…do.
For the first time Qiqi was feeling mentally drained. She decided not to open her mouth or there will be another hill. People would be happy seeing so much money, however, Qiqi was sure that boss won't be so happy. After all, collecting all those materials in the passage of a month would be a dauting task.
Returning back to the shop, Qiqi gave the receipt of the things that Primis bought and also another two of the advanced payments.
She then took out a notebook, and looked at Primis.
Qiqi: Since we don't have seeds, please tell Qiqi which seeds you need.
Primis: Let's see. Calla Lily Seeds, Carrot Seeds, Cecilia Seeds, Glaze Lily Seeds, Harra Fruit Seeds, Horsetail Seeds, Jueyun Chili Seeds, Lotus Seed, Lumidouce Bell Seeds, Marcotte Seeds, Mint Seeds, Naku Weed Seeds, Pluie Lotus Seeds,...…..
The list kept on going for a few pages. By then even Qiqi started question herself whether they would be able to find them.
Primis: And that's all.
The zombie could only nod blankly at this point.
Primis: I am leaving then. Will meet in next month. Pleasure doing business with you.
With this Primis left.
Letting out a sigh Qiqi looked at the notebook in her hand.
Qiqi: Boss will be extremely busy till the next month. He would barely even have time for himself. *sigh* Qiqi shouldn't have accepted such bizarre request. But now we can't back down otherwise it will affect the Pharmacy's reputation.
She then held her eyes and prayed.
Qiqi: May our Geo Archon have mercy on our Boss because Qiqi have a feeling that that Sir won't.
