The Wanderer knew very well that although Dottore was a remarkably calm person in every aspect, he would become extremely furious whenever someone disparaged his research.
This was one of his few weaknesses.
And the reason the Wanderer chose to provoke Dottore was to make him lose that calm mind—so that his own plan could proceed smoothly...
However, Dottore seemed to have realized this as well.
"Wanderer, you don’t actually think that by making me angry, you can disrupt my thoughts by stirring my emotions, do you?"
"If so, then you’re gravely mistaken. If a person cannot fully control their body and thoughts, then they have not truly mastered their body in the absolute sense..."
"Moreover, to surpass the Eerie power and fully control it, one must become even more mad, more frenzied, and more ruthless than the Eerie power itself!"
"A mere emotion like anger is nowhere near enough to shake me!"
Faced with Dottore’s words, the Wanderer wasn’t surprised.
He had never expected that such a simple provocation would cause Dottore to reveal a flaw...
Regardless of his character, Dottore was ultimately a meticulous and precise individual.
Finding a weakness in him wasn’t so easy...
What’s more, even if a weakness were found, it would only be enough to eliminate one of his segments.
Truly killing Dottore entirely was far from a simple task...
Yet, faced with Dottore cloaked in Eerie power, the Wanderer didn’t seem to intend to resist at all.
Instead, he spread his arms, pointed to his chest and head—his weak points—and spoke with a grin:
"Dottore, I was wrong to say your research is worse than crap... because honestly, comparing your research to crap is kind of an insult to crap."
"Come on, Dottore. Don’t you want to kill me? I’m right here. I won’t resist. Go ahead, take your shot!"
Dottore, however, remained extremely cautious in the face of the Wanderer’s uncharacteristic behavior.
Just moments ago, the Wanderer was threatening to tear him into a thousand pieces, and now he was offering himself up without resistance?
There was definitely something fishy going on here.
Watching Dottore hesitate, the Wanderer knew that his plan had already begun to take effect.
Dottore might be a madman—but he was also extremely cautious.
Those two traits were not mutually exclusive.
So sometimes, just by acting a little unusually, you can awaken Dottore’s suspicion and make him hesitant to act rashly...
Moreover, Dottore is a clever person.
Sometimes, it’s better not to say things too clearly—he’ll fill in the gaps with his own imagination...
"Dottore, actually, I know everything about you. Everything—all of it, I know..."
"From the moment you came into this world, every step of your growth, everything you’ve done, your thoughts, your plans—I know it all clearly and thoroughly..."
"Oh? Wanderer, are you really a worm inside my belly? Knowing so many details like that?"
"But I know my body well, and there’s no worm inside me..."
"You also couldn’t possibly be watching me all the time, otherwise I wouldn’t be completely unaware."
Dottore believed the Wanderer’s words because the Wanderer had just perfectly cracked his inventions.
Dottore realized that the Wanderer was truly extraordinary...
Moreover, Dottore had a rough guess about how the Wanderer knew so much about him...
"It must be the Irminsul. Only through the Irminsul can one transcend the distance of time and space and know me so thoroughly."
"Are you someone under Buer? Did Buer tell you all this information?"
"Don’t confuse me with her! I am his subordinate, how could that be?"
The Wanderer immediately replied:
"I told you, I am the Wanderer, roaming between heaven and earth, belonging to no one and no organization!"
"Alright, no matter what, you didn’t deny the Irminsul part, which means all this information you have about me really did come from the Irminsul..."
"If that’s really the case, then your ability to control a certain eerie power probably comes from sneaking a peek at my research notes on that very power."
"You’re really something—on one hand you say my research is rubbish, but on the other, you use it with great enthusiasm. Heh..."
"That’s why the Irminsul shouldn’t exist in Teyvat. It has made all the security measures in my research look like a joke..."
"One day, I will burn the Irminsul down..."
Dottore looked up and fixed his gaze directly on the Wanderer, saying:
"But, Wanderer, do you really think that just because you got my intel through the Irminsul, you can be my match?"
"I have never stopped moving forward; I am always striving ahead at every moment!"
"On your way from the Irminsul in Sumeru to Inazuma, do you know how many of my research results have been put into practice in the real world?"
"As for this part of the power, do you still have any intel to deal with it?"
"I never intended to deal with it at all—in fact, I hope you kill me immediately!"
"Kill you? No, no, no. I will dissect you bit by bit and study you thoroughly. It won’t be so easy to kill you," Dottore shook his head and replied.
"Since you’re unwilling to kill me, then I’ll kill myself!" The Wanderer said as he condensed a wind blade in his hand and placed it against his own neck.
"Dottore, I know your greatest secret... I have already set up a little program so that after I die, this secret will be revealed to everyone across all the nations and places in Teyvat!"
"My... greatest... secret?" Dottore showed an extremely confused yet serious expression.
He knew he had many secrets, but in front of the Irminsul’s rules, none of these secrets were truly hidden...
Dottore actually knew that he had a greatest secret, but this secret had been handled through some special means precisely to evade the rules of the Irminsul...
But even he himself didn’t know what this secret was—so how could the Wanderer possibly know?
