Succubus Star Sister, but the original god

Xing was frightened purely because the other party spoke suddenly, but Diona was different.

"M-Miss Margaret!?" Diona immediately left Xing's arms, and her cheeks blushed again.

"I heard that someone touched little Diona's tail, so I hurried back, but I didn't expect..." The woman called Margaret covered her mouth and laughed softly.

"Who are you?" Xing looked at the other person puzzledly.

"I'm the proprietress of this tavern, just call me Margaret... Well, you're such a cute child, no wonder Diona likes you." Margaret looked at Xing carefully, then nodded.

"Hello, hello." Xing has been to the tavern so many times, but this is the first time he has seen the proprietress of the tavern.

She greeted him somewhat guiltily, with an embarrassed smile on her face.

After all, she had just teased... well, it couldn't be called teasing, as the word had too strong a negative connotation, she was just interacting with Diona in a friendly manner.

But no matter what, Diona was scared after all.

Now it’s a little awkward facing Diona’s “parents”.

"Okay, don't be so nervous. The fact that you can touch little Diona's tail without getting bitten is enough to prove how much little Diona likes you." Margaret said with a smile.

Not to mention that she could even let little Dionna act like a spoiled child in her arms, which was an absurd thing.

Fortunately, Xing is a girl, otherwise if Mr. Durafu knew about it, he would probably come here angrily with his bow and arrow to call for punishment, right?

"No! I, I just..." Diona stuttered, but in the end she couldn't say anything.

She could only blame Xing for being too cunning. She used such an evil trick that made her fall into it accidentally, and her embarrassment was seen by Miss Margaret.

"It's just that my teeth have been in bad condition recently, otherwise I would have bitten her a long time ago." Diona snorted in self-abandonment and turned her head away.

No matter how lame the excuse was, she would always find a way to save face.

Margaret knew Diona's character very well, so she just looked at her with a smile and didn't say much.

---------------------------

It was already dark in the evening. As an apology, Xing stayed in the pub for a while longer and only left when it was completely dark outside.

There was basically no business at this time, and Xing sat in the pub and had a great time chatting with Miss Margaret.

Xing could see that Miss Margaret was also more or less affected by her physical condition. Fortunately, Diona was there, and since they were not alone, no major problems would occur.

It’s almost the agreed time, and it’s time for Xing to leave.

"You don't have a cat's night vision, so it's okay to walk at night, right? If you want me to escort you..." Standing at the door, Diona looked at Xing awkwardly.

The roads in Mondstadt at night are actually quite safe, but Diona is still worried that Xing might get into an accident.

But she forgot one very important thing.

"Um, aren't there street lights on the road?" Xing touched his head and asked with some confusion.

When I had dinner with Amber and the others, I felt that although Mondstadt’s nights were not very brightly lit, the lighting was still very good.

"Eh? There's a light... So-and-so is here to escort you, go away!" Diona's little face turned red in an instant, and she slammed the door of the tavern shut.

Xing stood there, not reacting for a moment.

She seemed to have chosen the wrong option and shouldn't have gone for the lantern thing.

"Well, I'll come to see you in a few days. Goodbye~" Xing smiled, shouted towards the tavern, turned and left.

"Who asked you to watch..." Diona leaned against the door and snorted.

However, after some hesitation, she ran to the window and watched Xing's back as she left through the glass.

Behind her, Margaret was watching her movements with a smile on her face, and no one knew what she was thinking.

"Diona, do you like her very much?"

"No!"

"Oh~" Margaret nodded.

That means she likes it, and she likes it too.

Although the conversation was not long, Margaret found that Xing had a very attractive temperament.

She was no longer a young girl who was just beginning to fall in love, but no one had ever given her such an indescribable feeling as Xing did.

"Hmm..." Margaret thought about it and felt distressed again.

The business of her tavern was getting better and better, and Diona was the only one in the store and sometimes she was too busy to handle it.

Recently she was thinking about hiring a new clerk, but she hadn't found a suitable candidate yet.

Now I have it, but I don’t know how to start the conversation to trick the other party into coming over.

It seems that I need to do some research...

If I can trick that girl over here, Diona will be very happy, right?

Well, it's all for Dionna.

There is absolutely no selfish motive other than this.

Chapter 31: Tavern Talk

Although what Xing said to Diona just now was a bit demeaning, letting Diona send her to the Angel's Gift like this might not be a good thing.

After all, in Diona's eyes, the angel's gift should be regarded as a BOSS-like existence, a target she has always wanted to destroy. If he ran here late at night, Diona might get upset.

To be honest, the Cat's Tail Tavern is one of the few industries in Mondstadt that can threaten the Angel's Gift in recent years, but even so, the gap between it and the Angel's Gift is still visible to the naked eye.

Diona has a long way to go...

Xing was lost in thought, and soon she arrived at the door of the tavern.

"Oh?" Xing noticed the small blackboard in front of the tavern.

There were many notes stuck on it, but the one that caught her attention was the one at the top.

"Looking for the missing teenager, we sincerely hope that people with good intentions will actively provide information and help. The missing person has blond hair and wears exotic clothes, which is very conspicuous..."

This is the missing person notice posted by Amber. Judging from the description, it should be talking about Ying's brother, right?

Xing didn't continue reading. He walked to the door, knocked, and then pushed it open and walked in.

"Xing! You're finally here!" Seeing Xing pushing the door open, Paimon waved to her excitedly.

"I shouldn't be late." Xing nodded to Paimon and looked around the tavern and the people standing there.

Angel's Gift is much larger than the Cat's Tail Tavern and is divided into two floors. However, the layout does not seem to be as cozy as the Cat's Tail Tavern.

Perhaps this is also the differentiated competition of Cat Tail Tavern?

As for the people present, besides Ying and Paimon, there was a red-haired, cold-faced man, a woman wearing white tights that perfectly outlined her hips, and...

"Eh? It's you?" Xing looked at the young man in green standing opposite him with some surprise.

She still had a deep impression of this young man. After all, she later learned that there were only a handful of people in this world who could talk to dragons.

"Haha, Miss Xing still remembers me." The green-clothed boy smiled, then greeted Xing and introduced himself: "I am the best bard in the world, just call me Wendy."

"Well, hello, and these two..." Xing looked at the other two.

"Let me introduce them!" Paimon flew in front of the two of them.

"This is the owner of Angel's Gift, Master Diluk of the Dawn Winery." Paimon first pointed at the cold red-haired man.

"Hello." Diluk greeted him with the same coldness, without even a change in his expression.

"And this person is the famous leader of the Qin Group."

"There's no need to introduce myself as famous... Hello Miss Xing, I'm Qin, the acting leader of the Knights of Favonius." Qin looked at Xing and extended her hand to her.

"I've heard a lot about you. I've often heard people in Mondstadt talk about Captain Qin. I never thought I would have the honor of meeting him." Xingye quickly reached out and shook hands with Qin.

All she knew about Jyn came from the people of Mond.

They were all saying things like "There will be no problem as long as Qin is here" and "The acting leader will definitely be able to solve the problem."

She thought Qin was probably a middle-aged uncle or aunt, but she didn't expect her to be so young.

"No, no, Miss Xing is also a guest who came from afar. I should have taken the initiative to visit her, but I really can't get away recently." Qin's face seemed to become a little unnatural, and she withdrew her hand stiffly.

"What happened just now......"

Qin was very confused.

She just shook hands with the gray-haired girl opposite her, but she suddenly felt a tingling sensation in her hands, and her heart seemed to beat a lot faster.

Fortunately, this feeling didn't last long.

"Ms. Xing, thank you very much for your willingness to help us." Qin came back to her senses, stopped thinking about the strange feeling just now, and spoke to Xing again.

She knew Xing; Amber often mentioned him, and after all, she was the one who came here with Ying.

Unfortunately, I was busy with the Four Winds' mission to protect the temple, and when I finally had some time, I heard that Xing had accepted a commission from the Adventurer's Guild and was not in Mondstadt, so we have not been able to meet.

She had never known Xing's strength before, but now she has an idea of ​​it.

Not long ago, a report commissioned by the Frost Armor King of Qiuqiu was delivered to her desk, and the person who completed it was Xing.

It took less than a day to successfully defeat a Hillhill Frost Armor King. Including the round trip journey, the actual battle time may not be long.

This is enough to prove that the girl’s strength should not be underestimated.

"You are too polite. After all, Mond has taken great care of me during this period of time." Xing shook her head. Even from her own perspective, she was already prepared to rent a house. She could not let the dragon disaster continue.

"Okay, okay, let's stop being polite here and let's get down to business." Paimon interrupted.

"Then I will play for you two again for free." A harp appeared in Wendy's hand at some point.

"The story I want to tell begins with..." Wendy began to sing. His gentle and slow tone made people feel relaxed, but the story he told made it hard for people to feel at ease.

Xing listened silently, and at the same time couldn't help but look at Wendy again, sizing her up carefully.

Wendy does seem to be different from ordinary people.

Although it was just Xing's own feeling, and she couldn't say exactly what this feeling was.

"...many years later, no one recognized it after it revived." Wendy finished singing the narrative poem that she had already sung twice. No one knew what they were thinking and no one took the initiative to speak.

"I have never imagined why the East Wind Dragon, one of the Four Guardians of the Winds, would betray Mondstadt. I didn't expect it to be like this..." Qin broke the silence. She frowned and said something that she, as the acting leader, could not say.

As the acting leader of the Knights Tempest, even though she knew that matters concerning the Wind Dragon were not that simple, she was under diplomatic pressure from the Fatui and could not publicly express her goodwill towards the Wind Dragon without evidence.

"So, is it true that the sound of the Sky Harp can purify the Wind Dragon and restore it to normal?" Qin looked at Wendy again and asked.

"Absolutely right! Ying is joining the front line for this. She truly deserves the title of the Knights' Supernova Girl." Wendy nodded, then looked at Ying and complimented her.

"…Although what you did seems to be illegal." Xing couldn't help but complain.

"The situation is urgent, there's nothing we can do." Ying said helplessly.

If possible, she didn't want to steal the Sky Harp.

In the end, I was intercepted by someone, how abominable...

Chapter 32: Don’t act separately!

"So, what we have to do next is... first, to find the Sky Harp back, second, to collect the Wind Dragon's tear crystals and give them to Ying to purify, so as to repair the Sky Harp, and finally, Wendy will summon Tevarin." Qin summarized the plan that they had just made.

"Yeah, that's right. If everything goes well, I think we can definitely get Tevarin back with the Mond people." Wendy nodded with a smile.

With the help of these people, he felt that there should be no problem with the plan.

"But where should we go to find the Sky Harp? So far we only know that the Fatui stole the harp, but we have no concrete evidence." Qin asked slowly again.

Whether it was Rosalia's previous investigation of the church's secret room or the Fatui's subsequent reaction, it can be seen that the Sky Harp is in the hands of these people.

But unfortunately, she lacked conclusive evidence. It was not enough to say that it was done by Leiying Warlock just based on the remaining thunder elemental power.

She had no way of using this as an excuse to attack the Fatui. If she rashly put pressure on them, it might escalate into a diplomatic crisis between the two countries. For Mondstadt, which was in the midst of a dragon plague and most of the Knights Templar were not there, this was not a good move.

"There are as many Fatui members as you want in Mondstadt. No one will mind if a few of them disappear occasionally. I have already pried some information out of their mouths." Diluk suddenly said coldly.

"Ah?" Xing looked at him with some surprise.
