Is it because of the lack of major military power that they lack confidence, or is it because they have no gods to back them up?

If it were her, she would definitely choose to do something tough to the Lawrence family, arresting and detaining a group of people, or even purging a group of people, and then support Eula as the head of the family, and then directly marry Eula, completely opening the next page in the history of the Lawrence family.

Unfortunately, Mond’s last name is not Xing, and she is not the Grand Master of the Knights Templar.

After all, this is Mond's own business. As an outsider, Xing cannot comment too much and can only express respect for the decision of the Knights Templar.

After this incident, the journey to Liyue was temporarily delayed, and Xing followed the main force back to Mondstadt.

On the way, the cavalry captain named Kaia seemed to be very curious about Xing and would occasionally interrupt her conversation with Eula.

[You almost didn't realize that the other person's seemingly enthusiastic words were actually testing your background intentionally or unintentionally. Moreover, for some reason, his voice gave you an inexplicable familiarity. For example, you always felt...]

"Kaia... is he good at surviving in the wild?"

"Survival in the wild?"

Kaia was a little surprised as to why the topic suddenly turned to this, but he returned to the topic:

"As for me, I'm OK. After all, wilderness survival is one of the training items of the Knights of Favonius. Of course, I'm definitely not as good as Amber and Eula in this regard. They are the experts in wilderness survival."

"Then...when you survive in the wild, do you catch various insects and small animals to eat?"

"……insect?"

Kaia was stunned again.

"This... shouldn't be the case, right? Unless the situation is really urgent..."

[How strange, besides surviving in the wild, you think he might be good at shooting, playing cards, and maybe even selling fried chicken]

After chatting along the way, everyone soon returned to Mondstadt. Because of the lady's matter, everyone in the Knights Temperance was busy, including Eula. She almost angrily took several Knights of Favonius back to the Lawrence family.

Xing, who had nothing to do, became the only idle person, so she simply ran to the Cat's Tail Tavern - she had asked around early in the morning and it seemed that Duraf's daughter was working as a bartender there.

Unfortunately, although there are many cats in the Cat's Tail Tavern, the cat-eared loli named Diona is taking a break today, which makes Xing stamp his feet and beat his chest.

After catching a domineering cat with unique fur and playing with it a few times, Xing, who was not very interested in playing cards, ran to another Angel's Gift before it got completely dark, ready to try the fine cider and Death in the Afternoon that Kaia had been bragging about along the way.

As soon as you enter the door, the first thing you see is...

[Oh my god, white silk!? ]

Xing looked up along the legs and found that it was a person wearing a green cloak, a green hat, and a Cecilia flower on the brim of the hat, dressed like a bard...

Uh……

[Boy? Girl?]

Xing was not sure, because the child in front of her looked very neutral, and the other party seemed to be going out. When he saw her, he was slightly stunned, and then smiled:

"Oh, this guest's attire is quite unique. He must be from a very faraway place, right?"

The other person's voice was also very neutral. At first glance, it was undoubtedly the voice of a little boy, but it also sounded a bit like a girl lowering her voice.

Xing was completely confused, but since he couldn't figure it out, he decided to figure it out himself.

She walked forward, reached out her hand and grabbed the other person's chest in the face of his puzzled look.

So flat... didn't catch anything.

[It is indeed flat... Wait! Why are you suddenly like this? ]

"——You? Miss, what are you doing!?"

Naturally, the other party was frightened by Xing's action and shrank back, looking at her in surprise and suspicion.

"So you're... a boy?" Xing asked just in case.

Because she subconsciously felt that there might indeed be some poor girls who had such poor hearts.

"Of course I am! Wait, are you trying to confirm this?"

"Another inch." Xing nodded calmly.

The other party naturally couldn't understand:

"If you suddenly touch the chest of someone you just met for the first time just to find out something, you might get caught by law enforcement, right?"

Faced with such a warning, Xing was naturally unaware of it. She said with a clear conscience:

"I'm sorry, I lost my memory not long ago, and I can't remember a lot of things. Also, I just arrived here, so I don't know much about Mond's customs."

[Amnesia is a good excuse. You vaguely feel that your moral standards have slipped a little.]

Seeing that Xing didn't look like he was lying, the other party sighed:

"Okay, okay, it's not a big deal, but... as compensation for scaring me, how about buying me a glass of wine and telling me stories from far away?"

[Although you don't like the little boy with white silk, you feel that the bard in front of you seems to be quite interesting. In this case, why not buy him a drink? ]

Xing nodded: "Drinking is fine, but... why do you want to hear stories from far away?"

"As a bard, I must bring you some new stories. Is that okay?"

Xing immediately snapped his fingers at the bartender:

"Please give me a glass of 'Death in the Afternoon' and a glass for the poet..."

"Apple wine, thank you!"

Volume 049: On the Journey: The Righteous Man

"In other words, the wind dragon...ah, I mean, Tevarin, swallowed the dragon's poisonous blood and became...um...insane?"

"That's right. The poisonous blood of the demon dragon Durin is distorted gold. It has the power to collapse mountains and destroy the earth..."

Xinghe, a bard who called himself Wendy, was lying on the bar counter, chatting about all sorts of things.

Although Wendy seemed very interested in stories from far away, Xing had only been in this world for a short time, so she really couldn't say anything interesting.

As a result, in the end, Wendy used poetry with arias to tell Xing the stories that happened on this land.

What about the battle between the Lonely King of the High Tower and the King of the North Wind for the throne in the War of Demons?

What? Originally, Barbatos was just a tiny elemental spirit in the wind...

Gunhildr's ancestors swore an oath to protect Mondstadt forever and crowned the newborn wind god...

The slave girl Vanessa defeated the dragon Usa that was wreaking havoc on the wilderness...

Xing was actually not very interested at first, because she would not stay in Mond for long after all, but Wendy's stories were so fascinating that she couldn't help but be attracted to them.

[The description is so vivid that it seems as if the poet has experienced it personally]

The next part of the story is about the appearance of the traveler Yingmei. It seems that this bard also helped and participated in it, but Ying never seemed to mention him at all.

"So even with such a big incident, the wind god Barbatos still didn't show up..."

Xing finally shrugged.

"Actually... I'd really like to meet the gods of this world."

"Oh? Are there also... gods in Miss Xing's hometown?" Wendy asked curiously.

[In a trance, you seem to recall the glance that the incarnation of destruction cast at you, as well as the simulated star gods you first met in the simulated universe. You must admit that they all have strong personalities, and most of them are not so... easy to get along with...]

“I guess so…”

Xing shook the empty glass in her hand - she seriously suspected that the bartender lowered the alcohol content because she looked young.

"Bartender, another drink please!"

The bartender who was wiping the wine glass looked at Xing hesitantly, but finally couldn't help asking:

"Of course, but... Miss, these drinks you've had are not cheap..."

Xing was just about to say that she had plenty of money, but suddenly she was stunned - it seemed that she had not thought much about money since she woke up from the space station?

The currency of this world...what is it called? Mora?

The bartender looked at her stunned expression and immediately raised his eyebrows:

"You...you're not here to drink without money, are you?"

"Haha, how, how is that possible?"

Xing immediately looked at Wendy who was already a little tipsy and asked in a low voice:

"Do you have any Mora? Lend it to me first, and I'll find a way to return it to you later."

Wendy sobered up instantly and became nervous:

"I don't have any either. I'm just a bard who has no fixed place to stay and makes a living by exchanging poems for a drink. Mora... I really don't have any..."

It’s broken, what should I do now?

Xing suddenly had an idea and said confidently to the frowning bartender:

"Brother! How about this? You name a place, like Liyue or something, and give me a batch of wine. How about I help you sell it there? The transportation cost will definitely be ten times cheaper than hiring someone to transport it there, and maybe you won't even have to pay tariffs!"

Xing simply admired his own genius business mind! Just Mora, with the Star Core Space, isn't it easy to get it? ?

Her road to becoming a businessman simply started from here, and she would grow bigger and stronger step by step!

The bartender looked at the landlord's stupid son:

"You mean... not only can you not afford to pay for today's drinks, but you're even planning to ask me to take a batch away?"

"..."

[It's broken. How about asking Wendy to ask Eula or the Knights for help? Although it's a bit embarrassing, at least it can prevent you from running away.]

Just when Xing was at a loss and the bartender was considering whether to call the Knight of Favonius, a red-haired young man who appeared out of nowhere walked to the bar:

"Consider these drinks to them, Charles."

“Master Diluk?” The bartender seemed to have great respect for the young man and nodded immediately. “Yes, I understand.”

"Hey, isn't this Master Diluk?"

Wendy immediately looked at the person who came with a smile on her face.

"Thank you so much! I will definitely help play a few more songs here for free some other day!"

Xing looked at the young man called Master Diluk. He had the same fiery red hair as Ji Zi, but he always looked like a kitten.

[You seemed to notice that his expression was a little unnatural after listening to Wendy's words. Could it be...]

Could it be that Wendy plays very bad songs?

[…This…is possible.]

Xing looked at Diluk who was looking at her. She couldn't play the piano or sing, so she quickly said:

"I don't sell my skills!"

[Hey, isn't that even more weird? If you don't sell your art, then you sell your body?]

This...if the customer is a beautiful lady like Eula, it's not impossible...

"Don't worry, it's just a few glasses of wine. Consider it my personal thanks." Diluk said calmly.

"Thank you?" Xing was a little confused.

"Thank you for helping Mond to defeat the Fatui's conspiracy to interfere in Mond's internal affairs. I even heard that you injured the Fatui's executive officer by yourself, didn't you?"

"Wow! Miss Xing actually has this kind of strength? This is incredible!"

Wendy on the side looked surprised.

"Let's not talk about the Fatui for now. I have seen the executive officer named Madam with my own eyes. She is a very scary woman. I didn't expect you to be able to hurt her?"

[Vendy's praise doesn't seem fake, but you notice that Diluk's expression seems more unnatural for some reason.]

Is there? Xing Mingming saw Diluk always had a cat face, and could hardly see any changes in his emotions.

But Xing liked what Wendy said, and she immediately put her hands on her hips proudly.

"He's just an executive officer. It's not the first time. I hope I can meet a stronger executive officer next time."

"First, a traveler came who defeated Tevarin and saved Mondstadt, and then a stranger came who could repel the lady. Mondstadt has been really lively lately!" Wendy exclaimed.

But Xing is also a little strange:

"This matter...has spread so quickly?"

Diluk shook his head. "I just have my own information channel. What's more, the Knights left in a hurry today and came back. They also sent people to the Lawrence family and the Fatui. With such a big commotion, many people have been discussing what happened."
