Genshin Impact, I, a weak person, am challenging myself to find a solution that will bring me lifelo

Weiss could only utter this sentence through gritted teeth.

"As long as you have the noble blood of Lawrence flowing in your veins, you are destined to rule Mondstadt again."

"And not in the way you want—"

Eula crossed her arms over her chest, watching the damaged castle continue to collapse. Familiar figures from the past kept running out of it, including a guy she particularly hated.

Uncle Schubert.

He rolled and crawled all the way to Wes, his smoke-blackened face full of panic.

"It's over, it's over, the Lawrence family is going to be destroyed!"

But before he could finish, Weiss slapped him in the face, causing him to fall to the ground, looking at him with a look of extreme confusion and shock.

"Lawrence will never perish! It has just been dormant for too long... It needs a fire to wake it up, and this fire is for this purpose."

Weiss stood up from his chair and walked towards the burning castle step by step.

The firelight was reflected in his dark and empty pupils, and the corners of his mouth were raised as if madly.

"Ah... I see it. The glorious road that belongs to the Lawrence family is right before our eyes."

"Brother? Brother! What are you talking about!?"

Schubert tried to stop him from entering, but was kicked away. Then, under the gaze of Schubert and Eula, Wes rushed into the burning Lawrenceburg.

Accompanied by flames rising into the sky and loud explosions, the old castle gradually collapsed and the gate was completely sealed.

Watching him act as if he was throwing away his life, Eula sighed.

Then he looked at the stunned Schubert and asked in a low voice.

"I don't have that much to talk about with you. Where did the group of treasure thieves go?"

"…I don't know, but I saw the traitor running west and southwest."

Schubert pointed with a trembling finger in the direction of the Château d'Azur.

Eula's body twisted for a moment under the light of the fire, but she seemed to remain calm.

Finally, she nodded and walked out of the castle where she had lived since she was a child.

This dark grey beast crawling on the ground has finally reached the stage of dying...

However, this unfinished revenge did not bring any satisfaction to her heart.

Instead, there is only nothingness.

The downfall of the once glorious Lawrence family happened on such an ordinary and unremarkable day.

The reason was that the slaves who were severely beaten were filled with resentment, so they colluded with the treasure-stealing group outside and sold out their entire family.

Should I say sarcasm or anger?

The target of his revenge was defeated at an unimaginable speed before his plan could be implemented.

Just as Eula was about to walk out of the castle, a voice came from behind.

"……then……"

Weiss, who was standing on a high place, threw something down. It seemed to be a contract, but also seemed to be something else.

But before Eula could confirm, the paper was blown into the fire by a sudden strong wind and turned into ashes.

Wes, who saw this scene, fell headfirst from above, rolled into the fire, and never stood up again.

What was that man thinking at the end?

Or maybe, all the performances before that were also the last performances of his life?

Eula didn't know.

Chapter 68: What is the difference between Youya and Barbara?

That night, Lawrenceburg caught fire, and the news of Wes Lawrence's death quickly spread throughout Mondstadt.

Naturally, most people in Mond had no sympathy and only treated this as a topic of conversation after dinner, but different people naturally have different views on the same thing.

For Yegor, who was staying at the Goethe Hotel, he was in a very bad mood.

Although he didn't like Wes, and even hated this untrustworthy bastard, he had to admit that he would need his help to adopt Youya.

Because he was the patriarch, he was qualified to act on this matter, and even the two signed contracts were kept with him. He only had the business contract for the payment of the transaction money.

That is to say, after Youya became his adopted daughter, he needed to provide the full amount of money and this aid card within the deadline.

But this premise is that -

He had to confirm that he and Youya had become adoptive father and daughter, and this would only be officially completed after a contract was signed by the Lawrence family recognizing the legitimacy of the adoption.

But Weiss hadn't given him that one yet. After all, Youya hadn't found it yet, and no one expected such a thing to happen so soon, so the contract was naturally still there.

But now, Lawrenceburg was burned down almost as soon as he left.

The most exaggerated one was done by a group of roaming treasure-stealing gangs...

The moment Yegor received the news, he felt a little bad.

But he soon changed his mind. In the past, Lawrence was indispensable for his cooperation. But now that Wes was dead, those thieves would definitely not miss these things according to their habits.

Maybe it was the big deal between him and Wes that attracted them here. In that case, it would mean that this group of treasure thieves would soon be unable to hold back and would come knocking on his door.

His mission on this trip was to bring back the girl with Lawrence's blood, that is, Miss Youya, whom he had set his eyes on.

So if they can accomplish this, it is not impossible for them to hand over the money and the person when they leave the city.

Maybe following the path of this group of people would be more efficient than searching the whole city with those four people...

However, he had to be careful. After all, he had some friction with the young masters in the city not long ago, and he was indeed mistakenly believed to be cooperating with the treasure-stealing group.

If Youya's affair were to be exposed, she would never be able to clear herself of suspicion.

With this in mind, Yegor also called Miss Lei Ying. This habitual criminal must know how to deal with the treasure-stealing group better than her.

It would be worthwhile to let her handle this matter and spend my own money to help her clean up the mess.

——And the Knights.

After finishing a day's training, Qin Ye, who returned to the dormitory, was forced to learn about this matter through family channels.

She certainly wouldn't show any sign of gloating. Although Lawrence had always unilaterally regarded the Gunhild family as enemies with a thousand-year-old feud, for this ancient knight family.

The Lawrence family is no longer as big as it used to be. If someone really wanted to deal with them, a "fire" like this would have happened countless times.

There is no need to even find a reason. Just by saying that you are following public opinion, the Lawrence family can be promoted, and no one will stand up to criticize them.

Therefore, Qin probably felt more emotional about the downfall of the Lawrence family.

The Lawrence family gained a bad reputation after their fall. Before that, the family name was also full of glory. It is really sad to see it end up like this now.

Especially when there is also a Lawrence like this in my dormitory, this feeling becomes even more subtle.

She was even thinking about what attitude she should adopt when talking to the other party about this matter.

Even though Youya Lawrence chose to leave her family, it is still the place where she was born and raised, so she shouldn't be completely without any feelings for them.

For her, will she feel relieved that the shackles have been removed, or will she feel sad that the family that connects them with each other by blood has been destroyed?

The dormitory fell into a rare silence because of this. Although Amber, who was always lively and naughty, was not aware of this matter, she could keenly feel that the solemnity on the piano did not seem fake.

After she said this herself, Youya, who had a tense face and seemed a little nervous, suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

"...Ms. Youya, are you okay?"

Qin could only ask uncertainly.

"It's okay. I thought that my brother Kaiya and I had been caught stealing bread from the church kitchen and that we were going to be arrested. I didn't expect it was just this incident."

The girl's expression made her feel a little strange.

"Although it does look pitiful, this is what is called God's will. There is no way to stop it and we can only face it."

Although her smile was pure and innocent, there was no sadness about the disappearance of her family in her eyes. It seemed that in her eyes, such a thing was not as important as the bread she had stolen.

Why on earth... does Miss Youya look at her family this way?

For the first time, Qintou had such a strong desire to explore a person's inner thoughts.

Through this period of contact, she at least had a preliminary understanding of the other person's personality.

She is sometimes weak and sometimes gentle, and sometimes she is as cunning and scheming as a cat.

But, no matter which one it is, it shouldn’t be so...negative.

Or is it that I have actually already had a beautiful delusion about Youya?

I believe that she is just like Barbara, who will feel sad for the misfortunes of others, and will show her precious empathy even if it is someone who has hurt her own family.

Youya and Amber in front of her were still chatting happily, and they didn't seem to be disturbed by this incident. She just watched the scene and thought about these things as if she was an unrelated third party.

I clearly said it myself, hoping to get some reaction... to verify that selfish thought.

Suddenly, a strange feeling of coldness filled Qin's heart.

Then there is some extremely painful emotion.

——She understood the emotions that were buried deep in her heart.

I hope Youya will cry to prove that she is the sister I think she is.

But they overlooked that she was never Barbara, and even her living environment was completely different...

Even if two people with such opposite destinies are similar in character, they are destined not to have the same opinion on this matter.

In other words, if Youya who was sitting here was her sister, then Barbara would be in Youya's position.

Will she also show such a relaxed smile like the girl in front of me?

As the question arose, the answer emerged in her mind.

At the same time, a shameful feeling of relief also rose up...

Qin slowly lowered her head and looked at her clenched fists.

Chapter 69 Return to Mondstadt

Eula did not impulsively run to the Dawn Winery, or directly run to seek revenge on the group of treasure thieves.

As the largest winery in Mond, the manor had such a large number of guards that it was impossible for it to end up like Lawrence, who had his house ransacked and set on fire in the middle of the night.

If even the Dawn Winery, which was fully guarded and regularly patrolled by knights, was attacked directly, then she suspected that some organization was doing dirty work in the name of a treasure-stealing group.

Therefore, she definitely did not need to worry about the safety of the winery. Even if she went there and told them that the treasure-stealing group might attack the winery, it would only make the people in the winery strengthen their defenses, and then make the treasure-stealing group that might have shown up retreat. It would then be very difficult for her to find this group of people again.

There are a lot of thieves working under the name of treasure-stealing groups all over Teyvat.

Eula's purpose is not to be a good person or do good things. No matter how much she does, it will not change the prejudices in people's minds. All she wants is to make the results go in the direction she wants.

So, since that group of treasure-stealing gangs stole a lot of things, they would definitely be eager to get rid of them. Mond's internal market alone would definitely not be able to digest them all at once. Moreover, selling large quantities of things at this time would undoubtedly be shameless. I am afraid that as soon as they sell all the things, they will attract the pursuit of the Knights.

In order to avoid this situation, they are more likely to send out a group of people to sell things that are less likely to reveal their identities, while the main force remains outside to provide support or prepare to escape.

Generally speaking, when a group of treasure-stealing people commits a major crime like this, they will definitely think about leaving the country first to prevent being traced back later.

But they entered the country from Liyue, so they won't be going back so soon for the time being.

Instead, they will stay here for a period of time, and may disappear and hide for a while at any time due to the slightest disturbance.

Then choosing the right solution is particularly important.

Eula paused for a moment and looked at the free country that was already within sight.

That’s right, for her, what is really important is not to find where the treasure-stealing group is, but where the contract is.

Even though the leader Weiss is now dead, for the treasure-hunting group that knows this information, they certainly wouldn't mind accepting this great gift.

At that time, we will definitely send scouts to talk to Yegor and make plans.

So after all the twists and turns, we must be able to get to Mondstadt where Youya is.

What she had to do was very simple and clear.

——Report the case to the Knights.
