Paimon: That's the history of Tevyat. See, Paimon knows a lot.
Lumine: ......…...
Though rather of getting surprised at Paimon's knowledge, Lumine gave her "are you serious" face.
Paimon: W-What's with the look you are giving to Paimon!? Whatever Paimon said is true.
Lumine: Well, it's not that I am saying you are lying. It's just...
Paimon: Just?
Lumine: I already knew what you said more than five years ago.
Paimon: .........…
Now, it was Paimon turn to be dumfounded.
A few seconds later, she opened her mouth.
Paimon: Are you saying you also knew the reason for Archon War is the seven-divine seat?
Lumine: Yes.
Paimon: How!? Except for The Seven, the people who know about the truth can be counted in Paimon's two hands!
Instead of answering, Lumine pointed towards the sleeping Primis at her side.
Paimon: Mr. Erste told you about it!
Lumine: Yes. And one more thing.
Paimon: Hmmm?
She gave a deep look to Paimon making her uncomfortable before opening her mouth.
Lumine: It's Mr. Herrscher for you.
Paimon: ...............
While Paimon was stupefied, Primis who was listening to all their conversation couldn't help but sighed inwardly.
"*Chuckle* Looks like someone is getting jealous."
"Primis: What a hassle."
'Primis: Anyway, this confirms that there is no change in history so far.'
At this, the corner of his mouth rose a little, but Lumine and Paimon didn't notice.
'Primis: But I won't say the same would happen for the plot.'
They both started arguing with each other again before Paimon turned her questions to Lumine.
Paimon: Why don't Lumine tell me about yourself?
Lumine: Me? Well...
Pausing here, Lumine looked at the Primis. As said before, Lumine didn't reveal her past to Primis till now. Though the reason was that Primis didn't ask, she still didn't feel like telling Paimon who she met in just a few minutes compared to someone she travelled seven years with. Hence, she remained silent.
Primis: *sigh* Go on, I am listening.
Paimon: Woah! When did you wake up!?
Primis: Since the moment you started arguing loudly with each other.
Paimon: Paimon was not the one arguing! It was Lumine!
Nevertheless, Lumine ignored Paimon's for now and started stuttering.
Lumine: M-Mr. Erste. I-I-I-It's not that I d-d-didn't want to tell you...
"She is panicking."
"Primis: I am not surprised."
The reason for her such scare was because she was thinking that Primis was disappointed in her seeing how she would rather trust Paimon to reveal her past than him.
One should know that Primis was Lumine's one and only pillar of support at this point. She trusted him unconditionally. And if this pillar broke, Lumine will lose herself completely.
Opening his eyes, Primis extended his hand and touched Lumine's face before started caressing her cheeks gently.
Primis: It's fine. I am not angry or something. I know your past has something to do with your brother Aether. And since it's a private and delicate subject, I didn't ask and just wait for you to tell me yourself. Of course, if you want to.
Hearing this, Lumine exclaimed.
Lumine: How does Mr. Erste know about my brother?
Primis: When we started our journey, you muttered your brother's name occasionally while sleeping.
Realization stuck Lumine as she nodded her hand in understanding. Still, she didn't let go of Primis arm and hugged it while started rubbing her cheeks with his hand.
A few minutes later when she was satisfied and let out a triumphant smile.
"I think she wanted Lord to comfort her from the very beginning."
"Primis: Believe me, I am thinking the same."
Breaking his arm free from Lumine's gasp, Primis put it behind his head while remaining in a resting position.
On the other hand, Lumine seemed dissatisfied at Primis' action and pouted.
"She really learnt how to show her discontent while looking cute."
"Primis: I guess."
With this Primis moved his gaze at the sky pretending he didn't notice Lumine's expression.
While this was going on between them, Paimon started pondering about something.
'Paimon: Why do Paimon have a feeling that Lumine was trying to show-off to Paimon?'
Finally, taking a deep breath, Lumine finally decided to talk about herself which had been hiding for so long.

---Recollection---
Lumine explained how she and her brother Aether fell in Teyvat from another world.
But the moment she woke up, Aether said they should leave. Getting confused, Lumine chose to believe her brother and decided to leave with him.
However, when they were about to, they were blocked by an Unknown God.
She called herself the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles.
They fought but they were no match for her.
In the end, Aether was consumed by red cubes of that Unknown God. And when Lumine attacked with her full power in the last blow, the Unknown God easily stopped it and then Lumine got trapped in a seal which made her lose all her power.
As a result, both siblings who travelled from world to world were now trapped here in this world.

---Present Time---
Lumine: How many years ago, was it? I don't know... When I woke up, I was all alone. Until----
Gazing at Primis, she continued.
Lumine: I met Mr. Erste Primis after almost two months of searching.
Primis: ....
"Almost Two months. In other words, she would have met Paimon in a day or two from then on."
'Primis: Yeah."
Lumine: I am still very grateful for everything that Mr. Erste taught me all this time. And...…
Paimon: And?
Scratching her cheeks, she looked away with a blush on her face.
Lumine: It was fun.
"Well… It was."
Primis: ............I see.
"Does it hurt if Lord show more of his truth thoughts?"
"Primis: Yes."
"......"
Noticing Primis lack of change of expression, Lumine sighed in annoyance. Even if she was already used to Primis' calm and collected face by now, she still feels irritated at this. She can count how many times she had seen different emotions on his face in the past years.
Paimon: So, where is your brother now?
Lumine: ...…I don't know. But if he really is in this world then I will definitely find him.
Paimon: Yes. Let's go find him.
Lumine: As I said before, we never agreed to you coming with us.
Paimon: Paimon wants to come. So, she will.
Lumine: You won't.
Paimon: Paimon will.
Lumine: You won't.
Paimon: Paimon will.
Shaking his head inwardly, Primis turned and closed his eyes again.
"Taking a nap again."
"Primis: Yes."
Though it was not the real truth.
Ever since he almost died by the hands Beast II last time, Primis never slept even for a moment from that day onwards. He can tell if he did, Beast II will make her move again.
Hence, from outside it may appear that he was in slumber, but in reality, he was fully focusing on healing himself.
'Primis: Despite the fact that only Beast II found me, it still makes me certain that other Beasts must also be looking for me right now. Just what kind of history "Counter Force" created for me that makes all the Beasts wants to look and hunt me down........................Another question is...are they the only ones or there are even more entities looking for me too.'
In the end, Primis decided to put those thoughts at the back of his mind. Because in case those entities were also coming for him then he had no choice but to fight them with his full power. Means as "God of Destruction". That time, it would not be planet, galaxy, or universe level battles. It will be a clash on a whole different scale.
A Multiverse level battle.
Countless Galaxies, Universes, and Multiverses will get destroyed in the process. And the battle will keep on going on for millions, billions, trillions, or even more years. Countless lives, races, worlds and so on will come to an end.
Do either party would care about such things that time? Not really.
Why should higher existences like them care for the lives of the mere ants or mortals who will get destroyed resulting in their clash.
Hence, they will keep on fighting non-stop till there will be one winner.
'Primis: Let's just hope "Counter Force" and the Wills of the Worlds will do something to prevent them from finding me. Otherwise, there will be no point of his Planar War when all the Worlds participating in it will be turned to ashes with just a single exchange between us.'
Like this, time went by again.

--- One year Later ---
Now it's been almost eight years since Primis arrived in this world.
Deciding that it was about time that Lumine should get her first element and continue the plot, they made their way to Mondstadt.
In the distance, they saw a huge tree. Though huge would be a small word since this tree was so big that one couldn't believe it at first.
It was the famous giant oak tree in Windrise. In case one managed to see this tree, that meant Mondstadt city was not too far.
Hence, this Mondstadt Arc will begin soon.
