[He's holding his breath as he awaits for Zhongli's response. He doesn't know the man well, so he can't tell if his discontent is purely for what happened-- or for Jun's failure to uphold his end of the agreement.
But the man chooses mercy towards Jun's failings-- even reassures him. They'd find another way, and wouldn't leave those four behind. He lets himself breath. ]
...Right. This isn't the end of it.
[He says that to reassure himself, more than anything. Things didn't go to plan, but there's a good chance they could still save the others. Zhongli had said others had survived using this method before. So surely...
The future is something that not even gods know for certain. The statement makes Jun pause. He pulls himself up enough so he's sitting in the sand, and gently rubs the spot on his arm where the Seal Mark was located underneath hisclothes.
Maybe the gods don't know the future for certain as Zhongli said, but seemed there was one that had a pretty good idea of what to expect. Just for what reason compelled Him to intervene, now of all times? It wasn't like the Holy Spirit did this whenever Jun was in a dangerous situation, so what was the difference here?
...As usual, there's no answer to Jun's query. Mikleo and his own were the only voices he heard inside himself. Shouldn't have expected anything different, really. ]
So what are our next steps?
[Maybe if he can focus on what to do next, it'll help]
