In Teyvat, it all begins with rescuing the grass god.

Without wasting any time, Dixia immediately took Rod straight to Huma's house.

When they arrived at Huma's house, Dina Zedai was already waiting at the door.

Judging from the faint dark circles under her eyes, she probably didn't sleep all night.

Beside her was a middle-aged man with a mustache, who was constantly reminding Dina Zede to be careful.

You can tell from the similarity in their eyebrows and eyes.

This middle-aged man was Dina Zede's father, and also the person Rhodes wanted to get in touch with.

"Dishia, this time Dinazede's safety is entirely in your hands."

Shazaman was very enthusiastic towards Dixia, and his smile never stopped as he spoke. The way he looked at Dixia was no different from how he looked at his own daughter, Dina Zede.

In contrast.

He was rather lukewarm towards Rhodes, and even had a hint of wariness in his eyes.

“Father, Rod is Desia’s friend, and he’s my friend too. Please don’t always have such a stern face.”

Despite Dina Zede's words, Shazaman's expression only softened slightly, but he still didn't have a good look.

Rhodes doesn't like to fawn over those who don't reciprocate his kindness.

Shazaman ignored him, and he didn't try to say anything flattering; he simply greeted him normally and that was it.

As for how to get in touch with this Mr. Humayi and contact Kusela, we'll figure that out later.

After saying goodbye to Shazaman.

The three of them then walked side by side toward the Grand Bazaar.

Calculate the time.

There are less than ten days left until the Flower Goddess's birthday festival.

All the necessary arrangements have already begun.

along the way.

The bustling stalls selling all kinds of snacks and gifts, the lanterns and decorations prepared for the grand festival, the various festive costumes that add to the festive atmosphere, and the endless stream of voices praising the Little Lucky Grass King—all of these are vigorously demonstrating the believers' devout faith in the Little Lucky Grass King.

"It's much more lively than yesterday."

Walking along the street, Rod remarked on the lively atmosphere.

"It will get more and more lively every day."

"It's a rare opportunity to celebrate the birthday of the Little Lucky Grass King, so everyone is putting in their best effort."

Since stepping into the Grand Bazaar, Dina Zede's smile has never faded, and her weak body seems full of energy. She strolls around the Seven Delicacies Table stall on the east side and chats with the Yalda Candy stall on the west side.

soon.

They then arrived at a somewhat old-fashioned stage.

Dina Zede pointed excitedly to the large stage in front of her and said, "This is the main stage of the Flower Goddess Festival. The most important Flower Goddess Dance of the Flower Goddess Festival will be performed here for everyone."

only.

When Rhodes and his companions arrived at the main stage, the first thing they saw was a middle-aged man with long blond hair arguing with a priest dressed in the uniform of the Order of the Order.

Come closer.

Then you could hear the instructor repeatedly saying that the Flower Goddess's Birthday Festival violated the rule that "large-scale sacrificial activities to the gods can only be organized by the Instructional Council" in order to make things difficult for the middle-aged man. Finally, after collecting a large fine, he left satisfied.

It's going to be released soon, I'm staying up all night to save up chapters, ready to update like crazy.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 75 Nasita's Gift

(After reviewing the plot, I realized I made a mistake earlier. Dina Zede shouldn't know anyone in the Grand Bazaar at this point in time. I've slightly corrected the error in the earlier chapter.)

Needless to say.

Just hearing the conversation between the priest and the blond middle-aged man filled Dina Zede's face with worry.

In Sumeru City.

The Faculty of Education is extremely averse to artistic performances like singing and dancing, which are enjoyed by everyone.

Explain it using the words of wise men.

Those so-called art forms are nothing but superficial and empty things. In the land of wisdom and reason, Sumeru, pursuing such things is an extremely shameful thing.

In their view.

For all scholars who pursue truth, reality, and justice, the gods created the paradise of Sumeru City. But artists like those in the Zuber Theater think of useless things like singing and dancing to defile this city created by the gods.

Based on this statement.

They not only restricted the students of the Order of the Church from watching various art performances, but also constantly attacked the Zuber Theater, the largest theater in Sumeru City, which was the theater where Rhodes and his companions were standing.

The theater's management had considered opposing the idea.

But it's a pity.

The sages of Mount Sumeru have the final say on this matter.

Therefore, every time the people from the theater went to the consulate, they would refuse to communicate with the theater management in any form, claiming that the people from the Zubair Theater did not have enough knowledge to debate with them, and would continue to suppress the Zubair Theater as they pleased.

To tell the truth.

If it weren't for the persistence of the manager of the Zuber Theater, this popular theater might have disappeared from Sumeru City long ago.

"It's really too much."

Having witnessed firsthand how the instructors of the Order Academy made things difficult for the blond man named Zuber, Dina Zede was furious, and her good mood from strolling through the Grand Bazaar was completely ruined.

"The Flower Goddess's Birthday Festival is something the Order of the Church should be holding. They haven't fulfilled their responsibilities at all over the years, and now they're making things difficult for everyone!"

Dina Zede, who was already in poor health, felt dizzy and unsteady on her feet after getting so angry.

Dixia reacted quickly and stepped forward to support her.

"Rhodes, why don't you wander around here for a while? I'll go take Miss home."

Without saying another word, Dixia picked up Dinazede and quickly left with her.

Watching Desia disappear into the Grand Bazaar in a flash, Rhodes shook his head.

Being a bodyguard is really not an easy job.

The three of us came together, but only a few minutes have passed and I'm all alone now.

Anyway, idle is idle.

Rhodes then wandered around freely.

Not long after, he stopped in front of a stall selling face powder.

"Well--"

After thinking for a long time, Rod still chose the most expensive one.

Dixia is a person who loves beauty and is used to wearing makeup every day, so she consumes a lot of cosmetics.

Don't ask Rod how he knew.

I just know it; there's no reason why.

The spice powder sold at the Grand Bazaar is of very good quality and tastes great.

Rod didn't know how to choose the things girls could use, so he simply bought the most expensive one.

However, just as he was about to pay...

A fair hand reached out from the side, stopping his movement, and handed Rod another type of face powder.

Along with that came a familiar voice.

"Miss Dixia's skin is very suitable for this product. As for the scent, she likes a milky scent when she is in the rainforest, but if she is going to the desert, a minty scent would be more suitable."

Catherine?

Rod turned his head in surprise.

It really is Catherine!

Oh no!

This is Naxi Da.

Why would she come to the Grand Bazaar in broad daylight, and even have the leisure to recommend perfumes to herself?

"Mr. Rod, if you want to buy face powder, I suggest you hurry up. Milk-scented face powder is very popular, and it will be sold out if you are any slower."

Using Catherine's body, Narcida smiled and spoke to Rhodes.

Suddenly snapping out of his daze, Rod hurriedly grabbed several bottles of each type of face powder as she had instructed, then asked with a strange look, "Do you have any recommendations for eyeliner?"

"This one."

“Miss Dixia’s skin tone is on the darker side, and this style suits her skin tone better.”

Nasita maintained the same expression as before, gestured, and said, "This is the style she's repurchased the most."

"it is good."

Rod didn't question it and paid for it directly.

Next.

He then asked about each of the cosmetics on the stall, and Nasita patiently gave him advice.

that's it.

When Rod and Narcida sat together at a stall selling date and honey, he bought a whole bag of cosmetics.

How did you figure out who I am?

As she spoke, Nasida sipped the date and coconut honey in her hand, her face occasionally breaking into a happy expression.

See this.
