"Tsk, what have you become... you can't even speak, can you?" The wind covered your words but knowing him, he definitely heard you.

"Y/N! Are you alright? Your hand.." Jiangxi had seen the scene yet still wanted to make sure you were all good. "It's fine...this stupid illness scared him away, that's all." Dismissing his concern, you let out a scoff. "But more importantly, Dvalin is getting fend off by a certain someone as we speak. And I think it would be only right for me to help them a little." You said with a grin.

"Y/N, we talked about this...you shouldn't use-"

"Just make sure nothing happens to my body, Ji. Thanks!"

Before he could say anything else, you closed your eyes, focusing your energy towards the sky. You knew that Jiangxi was against you using your powers but right now that didn't matter. The god let out a hard breath before executing himself. The more you concentrated, the more the dark blue color faded out on your knuckles. Very slowly spreading its way onto your forearms.

'Focus, the sky, the wind, flying....Ah! There we go~'

-"Huh? How are you staying afloat like this with just a Wind Glider?" A high pitched voice spoke. A child?

   -"I'm preventing your fall with the power of a thousand winds." You didn't need to hear this voice twice, immediately recognizing him. Chuckling in delight, you ached to greet him but decided not to do so. You'd see each other soon enough.

-"Now, concentrate. See yourself grasping the wind. Harness it's energy." After that last piece of advice, Barbatos was no longer audible. He was gone.

-"Who, who said that?" The child questioned.

After that, you could only hear Dvalin's complaints and the sound of explosions?
Some more silence followed and you decided to speak up.

-"Why hello everyone~" You greeted as a test, to see if the two remaining could hear you.

-"Now, who is this again?" What you assumed to be a child seemed a bit panicked.

You  scoffed amused by how easily the kid got scared. So they could hear you. Very good.

-"Believe it or not but my friend here just gave you a very challenging way to deal with this dragon, well quite the soft method for Dvalin himself...It'll take you awhile to scare him away and we honestly don't have much time. Allow me to help."

Collecting some stamina, you infused Barbatos's wind blades with some of your Imaginary damage, making it way more irritating for the dragon without truly injuring him.

Imaginary damage was one of your main abilities that you had learnt to wield in another world. Though using this type of element in Teyvat wasn't the safest thing to do. When using an Imaginary attack to inflict pain on a target enemy, your attack would deal Imaginary damage and additionally inflict Imprisonment, a condition that made the enemy suffer from delayed actions and hallucinations.

You could inflict nonexistent pain onto a target, which for them, could result in the worst tortures possible.

-"Now, strike him again. It'll sting him a lot but at least this works way faster and he'll be gone for a little while."
