Chapter 382: One Diona in One Hand, Jianna in the Other

"This is the final miracle of the Spring Fairy!"

In Springvale, the ever-"miraculous" Hopkins was enthusiastically promoting his goods to a young girl in front of him.

After years of being scammed by him, most of Mondstadt’s residents already knew what kind of person he was, so hardly anyone fell for his tricks anymore.

But this girl, who looked somewhat familiar, was different—she stood beside him, eyes shining, listening intently to his pitch.

"Th-this... why is it called the final miracle of the Spring Fairy?"

Jianna looked curiously at the bottles behind Hopkins and asked.

From the outside, the water bottles with gilded labels did look quite extraordinary.

But she couldn’t tell what was actually special about them.

"Well, dear customer, you may not know this, but Springvale is famous because of the Spring Fairy. It’s said the fairy once lived in the pond right beside me."

Facing a potential customer, Hopkins pulled out all the stops, trying his best to sell his stagnant stock of "holy water."

"But... that’s just a big dirt pit now. There’s no water."

Just as she said, the pit did look like it once held water.

But now it was completely dry, with little green sprouts already growing at the bottom. Before long, it would likely turn into a patch of lush grass.

"That’s because the Spring Fairy has already died, and the spring dried up with it. The batch of holy water I have here was specially collected before the spring ran dry."

This was Hopkins’s latest scam strategy.

The water he once gathered to deceive people had now become "limited edition."

He figured that instead of selling it as "holy water," he could market it as the final miracle of the Spring Fairy.

That way, people wouldn’t see him as a fraud, and he could sell it legitimately.

Who knows, he might even clear his reputation.

"Then... what does it do?"

It had to be said that Jianna, who hadn’t experienced much of the world, was genuinely taken in by his story.

Every word Hopkins said matched the legends she had heard about the Spring Fairy.

"As the final miracle of the Spring Fairy, it has plenty of uses. Curing all illnesses is just the most basic effect. It also has some... unexpected benefits."

As the saying goes, a leopard can’t change its spots. Wanting to seal the deal, Hopkins returned to his old tricks.

Worried about being caught scamming again, he lowered his voice and spoke mysteriously to the girl.

"Um... then... can it fix something like this?"

Jianna’s eyes lit up. She raised her hands in front of her chest, mimicking the motion of holding two watermelons, and asked.

If it could, she planned to buy a bottle for the Fair Lady to help reduce the swelling on her chest.

Hopkins glanced at Jianna’s not-yet-developed figure and immediately understood.

He gave a confident thumbs-up.

"It can make them even bigger than that!"

"..."

To Hopkins’s surprise, the moment he said that, Jianna’s hopeful expression instantly changed.

It was as if she had just heard the most terrifying thing in the world.

"No, no—I don’t want it anymore!"

Jianna looked at the "holy water" in his hand with horror, waving her hands in refusal.

"Trust me! It really can make you bigger—bigger than you can imagine!"

Thinking he hadn’t exaggerated enough, Hopkins doubled down.

But after hearing that, Jianna turned and ran without hesitation.

She didn’t stop until Bai Luo pressed a hand on her head, forcing her to halt.

"What’s wrong?"

Seeing the terrified expression on Jianna’s face, Bai Luo asked curiously.

Since he rarely had the chance to visit Springvale—and happened to be free recently—he decided to pay a visit to Draff’s family.

By the time Bai Luo arrived, Draff had already woken up from the lingering effects of his drunken stupor.

Even with Diona’s careful care, he still looked somewhat weak.

However, after learning that the spring had dried up, he didn’t blame his fainting on Bai Luo’s Sunsettia.

After all, the ice Diona used for mixing drinks was made from water taken from that very spring.

And because of that ice, her drinks had recently knocked out countless people.

Now, the Knights of Favonius had even specifically instructed her to avoid mixing drinks until the spring was fully restored.

Originally, the Knights had prepared to comfort the little "cat," expecting her to be upset.

But instead, she wasn’t disappointed at all—in fact, she was delighted that her drinks had become "drunkard slayers," and had been happily laughing about it for days.

"Draff, your body hasn’t fully recovered yet. No need to see us off."

Seeing Draff follow them all the way to the edge of the village, Bai Luo spoke up.

When he was younger, he never understood the meaning of "Though the Peach Blossom Pool runs a thousand feet deep, it cannot match Wang Lun’s parting affection."

He never expected that in Mondstadt—a place where most people saw him as a menace—there would still be someone kind enough to escort him this far despite his condition.

"It’s only right, only right. Mr. Bai, you saved my life."

"You really don’t have to. Your goodwill alone is enough to make me happy."

"Um... then before you leave, could you put Diona down first?"

Looking at Bai Luo—holding Jianna’s hand with one hand and carrying Diona in the other—Draff finally couldn’t hold back anymore.

It’s fine if you cuddle my daughter like a cat in my house—but now you’re trying to take her away?

Why don’t you just take me along too while you’re at it?!

"Oh? Ah—sorry, sorry. She felt so nice to hold, I forgot for a moment."

After Draff’s reminder, Bai Luo finally realized that he had gotten carried away petting her and had absentmindedly carried her out as well.

No wonder Draff had followed them all the way out of the village.

After a friendly farewell, Bai Luo left Springvale with Jianna under Draff’s watchful gaze.

As for whether bringing Diona out was truly an accident or intentional—that was something only Bai Luo himself knew.

However, not long after the two left Springvale, a dragon’s roar echoed across the sky.

"That sound... Dvalin?"

Watching the Dragon of the East flying in the distance, Bai Luo shielded Jianna behind him, showing no surprise.

After all, according to the storyline, Mondstadt would suffer more than one incident involving Dvalin.

He just hadn’t expected the dragon to attack so frequently.

Could it be... that it had also sensed Barbatos’s awakening?
