"Good morning, Paimon~" Si Luo, who was awakened by the small cup, opened his eyes and looked at the pocket-sized loli who was strung on Longinus, with her two white and tender legs struggling to step on his legs. He couldn't help but chuckle and touch her little head. After enjoying the night before, Paimon has now successfully suppressed Ying and become the first girl in Teyvat that he has a very high favorability towards. "Good morning... Um, can you take me off now?" Paimon responded subconsciously, then his eyes suddenly became alert, afraid that he would use him as a cup again, so he spoke quickly. "Aren't you ready to play for a while?" "No!!" Paimon quickly shook his head, and then saw Si Luo reaching out his hand towards him. Although his movements were still a little dishonest, he finally pulled her off the Spear of Longinus after hesitating for a few minutes. "Before you get up, Paimon, aren't you going to enjoy your breakfast?"
Seeing Paimon preparing to put on her clothes, Si Luo pulled her with a smile, then gave her a look, asking her to look at the extremely energetic Longinus. "..." "I see…" Looking at the tip of the gun that had been soaking in his body all night, Paimon hesitated for a moment, but finally hugged it obediently and began to enjoy his own special breakfast. ... Half an hour later, Paimon, who had eaten and drunk his fill, quickly put on his clothes, and without even straightening the crown on his head, he fled the room in a panic. Si Luo, with a comfortable expression, recalled the process of using the Paimeng cup, then put on his robe and slowly left the room. When he returned to the living room on the first floor, Ying and Amber were sitting on the sofa, chatting while watching Paimon enjoying the food. I have to say that Paimon is extremely cute, and with her happy expression when she eats, no one can resist this heartwarming scene. This is why Ying always prepares meals for her even though she says she dislikes her. "Good morning, Si Luo." Ying, who had rested for a whole night, was no longer shy as she was last night. She greeted him casually as usual, while Amber, who was sitting next to him, stood up stiffly. "Excuse me, Si Luo." For some reason, she could communicate normally with both Ying and Paimeng, but when it came to Si Luo, the young girl, who was just beginning to fall in love, couldn't help but shift her gaze as soon as she saw his face. She also felt panic in her heart and had no idea what to say. "Good morning~" Si Luo responded with a chuckle, then came and sat down next to Ying. Looking at Paimeng who subconsciously covered her buttocks because of his arrival, he couldn't help but reach out and poke her. "Is it really okay to come down and continue eating right after drinking milk?" "Totally... no problem!" Paimon responded seriously while eating the golden fried egg. "I'll finish digesting it after some exercise!"
Although it is called exercise, in fact, since Paimeng does not rely on any external objects to fly, it is hard to see any consumption. It can only be said that her digestive ability is too strong. After all, the amount of sword marrow that Si Luo left in her body last night was quite exaggerated. He was even a little worried that she would be hurt. As a result, when he woke up, he found that she was fine and even had a full appetite to drink again. "Oh, um... I've already made a reservation for you at the Deer Hunter Restaurant, but I only reserved some of the special dishes in advance, I don't know if it's enough." Amber sat on the sofa, grabbing her thighs with both hands and struggling nervously for a long time before she finally thought of a topic to start with and spoke in a low voice. Because she was too nervous, she accidentally bit her tongue while speaking. That cute and silly reaction made Si Luo couldn't help but smile faintly. "It's okay. Ying and I don't have big appetites." "As for Paimon, if you're not full, you can continue eating after you return from the Knights. After all, we'll be staying here for a while. If we try all of Mondstadt's delicacies at once, we'll lose a lot of anticipation for the rest of the day." The little loli who was eating breakfast heard him discussing her, and she raised her head and responded very cooperatively. "Um…" The girl nodded, and then the topic ended here, and she didn't know how to proceed. "By the way, Amber, could you please introduce me to the current members of the Knights?" Realizing that Amber wanted to communicate more with him, Si Luo directly brought up a topic that could be discussed for a long time. After Amber breathed a sigh of relief, she very seriously introduced to him some of the current high-level leaders of the Knights Templar. ... With Si Luo's active intervention, Amber quickly eliminated her inner tension, and her relationship with him became familiar at a speed visible to the naked eye. It was not until almost noon that the girl stopped chatting with Si Luo and the others, feeling somewhat unsatisfied. Then she left the house with a few people and went to the nearby Deer Hunter Restaurant. As the most popular restaurant in Mondstadt, the Deer Hunter has always featured Mondstadt cuisine, so when Paimon said he wanted to taste Mondstadt's food, Amber thought of it first. I don’t know if it’s because of the dragon disaster, but even though it was almost noon and the weather was very good, there were no passengers in the Deer Hunter Restaurant. "Miss Sarah, here I come!" Amber has regained her usual energetic appearance and greeted the beautiful big sister in front of the cashier counter happily. "Welcome! Amber! And these friends of Amber!" Take a day off I forgot to turn off the air conditioner yesterday, and it gave me a headache today. Although it doesn't hurt much, I can't calm down at all. I'll make up for it by updating three chapters and 12,000 words tomorrow! Chapter 10: Qin's Request, Cat's Tail Tavern After enjoying the local specialties of Mond at the Deer Hunter Restaurant, Si Luo did not continue to delay, but directly asked Amber to take them to the headquarters of the Knights. After all, this serious matter has not been dealt with yet. Even if Amber accompanies them outside for a walk, the girl will probably appear absent-minded. The terrain of Mondstadt is generally in the shape of a staircase because it is located on an isolated island surrounded by the sea on three sides. The headquarters of the Knights Templar is located at a higher position, only slightly lower than the cathedral that symbolizes the faith of Mondstadt. Half an hour later, Amber brought them to the door of an extremely solemn building. However, unlike when they entered Mond City, the two guards in charge of guarding did not choose to let them in directly because she was with them. Instead, they quickly came up to them with serious expressions, asked Amber about the identities and purpose of Si Luo and others, and then went to the headquarters to obtain permission from their superiors before letting them in. "I'm sorry, Si Luo... Because there are delegations from other countries visiting Mondstadt recently, the headquarters has been checking more strictly." After entering the headquarters, Amber led them straight to the leader's office and spoke with a slightly apologetic tone.
After all, the diplomatic mission that came this time was no good. Although the Fatui of the Winter Kingdom could not be said to be notorious, many major events in Teyvat were more or less related to them. Therefore, with the large army of the Knights Templar on an expedition, Jyn, the acting leader, naturally held the highest degree of vigilance against them. "I understand, don't worry about it." Si Luo crossed his arms, walked comfortably behind the girl, and responded nonchalantly, while his eyes briefly scanned the Knights, and quickly confirmed the approximate combat power level on this planet. After all, the Knights of Favonius are the administrators of Mond, and the knights here are naturally the elite among the elite. A glimpse of the whole picture can reveal the whole picture. Based on the strength of these elites and the strength of cadres like Amber who possess the Eye of God, as well as the Wind Dragon encountered by the God of God, he has roughly confirmed some specific conditions of this world. "This is it, wait a moment." Amber brought them to the door of a room, asked them to stay there for a while, and knocked on the door gently. "Captain Qin, I brought the travelers here." As soon as the girl finished speaking, there was a sound of footsteps, and the door was quickly opened. Then a charming older sister with brown curly hair and a witch hat came into view and greeted them with a smile in her eyes. "Sorry to have kept you waiting, come in!" As Si Luo and Ying entered the room, the dashing lady who was sitting at her desk handling Mond's affairs stood up at the right time and introduced herself to them quite seriously. "Nice to meet you, fellow travelers. I am Jean, acting leader of the Knights of Favonius!" The long golden hair in a high ponytail made the royal sister look quite refined. Her deep blue eyes glanced at Si Luo and the others with a hint of curiosity, and finally stopped on him. Although Paimon and Ying are equally conspicuous, the presence emanating from Si Luo is undoubtedly overwhelming, making it impossible to ignore him. "I didn't expect that the travelers who defeated the Wind Dragon were so young. My name is Lisa, and I'm the administrator of Mond Library~" Compared to the meticulous Qin, Lisa's performance is much more friendly. Her beautiful face with a faint smile and her voluptuous body with curves in all shapes and sizes exude a lazy mature woman's temptation. "Nice to meet you, Captain Qin, Miss Lisa." Because Ying beside him didn't know how to start the conversation, and Paimon, who only knew how to eat, couldn't be relied upon, Si Luo took the initiative to speak, with a faint smile on his face, and launched an offensive towards the two mature big sisters in front of him. "My name is Si Luo, and I'm a new traveler here." Compared to Amber's angelic smile, Si Luo's gentle smile is equally comfortable. Coupled with his outstanding appearance, he has not yet met any member of the opposite sex who would have a bad impression of him, and Qin and Lisa are naturally no exception. Especially Lisa, an older sister who seemed to have a somewhat introverted personality, the look in her eyes when she looked at him was full of curiosity. "Mr. Si Luo, you are too polite. Thanks to you for repelling the Wind Dragon yesterday, otherwise Mondstadt would have suffered a lot of losses." Perhaps influenced by Si Luo's smile, Qin's expression relaxed a little. After motioning them to sit on the sofa prepared in advance, she walked out from behind the desk and sat down opposite them with Lisa. "It's just a small favor. Captain Qin, you don't have to be polite. Just call me Si Luo." Si Luo responded with a chuckle, and then without waiting for Qin and Lisa to speak, he took the initiative to turn the topic to the Wind Dragon. "Also, regarding the Wind Demon Dragon, I noticed something strange about it yesterday, and its mental state also seemed a little off." "..." Qin's expression paused slightly, but Lisa beside him continued his topic with a smile. "As expected of a strong man who can repel the Wind Demon Dragon, he can still pay attention to these details in that situation... As you said, regarding the Wind Demon Dragon, I have actually confirmed its identity through the records in the library. It is not an evil dragon."
"On the contrary, it was once the East Wind Dragon, one of the Four Wind Guardians under the command of the wind god Barbatos. It blew away the wind and snow for Mondstadt and flattened the mountains. It was Mondstadt's guardian dragon." After all, the current situation is that they need Si Luo's help, so Lisa and the others had no intention of concealing the information from the beginning and told him everything in great detail. "Eh?!" Amber, who was hearing about this for the first time, made a surprised sound, but she quickly reacted and quickly covered her mouth with her hands. "But according to the last record..." "Five hundred years ago, the poisonous dragon Durin attacked Mondstadt. At that time, Mondstadt was short of combat power and could not stop the poisonous dragon's rampage...Then the East Wind Dragon came at the call of the Lord Wind God, bit Durin's throat and killed him on the Dragon Ridge Snow Mountain. Since then, there has been no news of it since then." "This is also the reason why Mondstadt has long forgotten about it. If it weren't for the records in the library, I'm afraid we would have regarded it as a pure evil dragon." Five hundred years may not seem like a long time, but for humans with a limited lifespan, it is the replacement of dozens of generations. In Mondena now, there are probably few people who can remember this former guardian dragon. "Poison dragon..." Si Luo didn't care about these things, but instead caught a key word in Lisa's words. "You said that Durin's throat was bitten to pieces at that time, which means that the East Wind Dragon was most likely corroded by the poisonous dragon's toxins at that time..." "It is indeed possible. Or rather, this possibility is very high!" Lisa looked at him with even more satisfaction in her eyes. The older sister who had been single for as long as her age had finally met a man who made her heart beat. The only pity was that Ying was already by his side. "So, Captain Qin, what plans do you have?" Si Luo nodded, then shifted his gaze to the dashing blonde lady. Compared to Lisa, who is the type that makes people want to be with her at first sight, Qin's temperament makes Si Luo miss the days when he bullied those knight girls in the small garden. The way those knights, who are usually quite old-fashioned, looked ashamed and angry but had to obey his orders when they were played with by him on the bed really made him feel very fulfilled. "About this... Mr. Si Luo, as the acting leader of the Knights of Favonius, I would like to entrust you to help deal with the Wind Dragon..." After noticing Si Luo's gaze, Qin took a deep breath, then stood up from her seat and looked at him very seriously. "Not long ago, the Grand Master organized an expedition that took away most of Mondstadt's combat power... As a result, the Knights are seriously short of manpower, and we also have to guard against the interference of the envoys from neighboring countries. We really can't spare any extra manpower to deal with this matter..." "Of course this mission is very dangerous, so we won't force you to participate." Perhaps she felt that she was being morally blackmailed, so Qin explained in time. Although she now felt like she was desperate and was trying every possible means, under the current circumstances, Qin really had no other choice. After all, the Fatui of Solstice have always proposed that they should deal with the dragon disaster, but as the administrator of a country, if the Knights of Favonius have to rely on the help of other countries for such a thing, then by then, not to mention the opinions of other countries, even the residents of Mondstadt will probably completely lose confidence in the Knights. It was in this situation that Si Luo appeared. Not only does he possess the power to repel the Wind Dragon, he is also just a traveler with no other identity. Although he is a little too mysterious, at least compared to the Fatui, if it is him, he can be said to be the most suitable person to deal with the dragon disaster. "Well... since it's a commission, that means there will be a reward, right?" Under Qinna's somewhat nervous and uneasy gaze, Si Luo stroked his chin and smiled faintly. "Of course!"
"In that case, we will accept this commission." Si Luo didn't even wait for Qin to say what the specific reward was. He chuckled and put his arm around Ying's shoulders. Under the girl's expectant gaze, he nodded and accepted the commission. Anyway, with Ying's good-natured personality, he would definitely not refuse this matter. He could also take the opportunity to improve the favorability of Jean and Lisa, and at the same time enhance his prestige in Mondstadt. He would naturally not miss such a good opportunity to kill two birds with one stone. "..." "Thank you so much!"
