Genshin Impact, I'm Slime

Chapter 22 Apology by the Fire
"Okay okay, Master Qin, please be gentle."

Wendy tentatively swayed her legs in the air, and said pitifully to Qin, the two were like carrying chickens and were taken out of the tavern by the head of Qin.

"Amber lives in the dormitory on the second floor of the Knights. You all want to know what you want to tell her."

Jyn put Wendy down first, and then put Famas in Wendy's arms.

Just when Wendy's feet landed on the ground, a strong wind floated by, setting off a large cloud, making Mond City, which was already at dusk, even darker.

"Huh? Is it going to rain?"

Jean looked up at the sky, because the weather in Mond became more and more strange because of Twalin.

"You did this? Barbatos?"

Famas, who was in Wendy's arms, jumped on Wendy's head and asked in a low voice.

"Hey, if it rains heavily, we don't have to apologize now."

Wendy whispered to Famas.

As if she had guessed what the two were thinking, Jyn turned her gaze from the sky to Wendy who was smiling.

"Go in the rain!"

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

"Come on here! It's so late, what's the matter?"

Ten minutes later, the sky was completely dark. On the second floor of the West Wind Knights Headquarters, Qin and Wendy, who were all wet, stood at the door of Amber's dormitory. Only Famas was hiding in Wendy's house. Di's hat, so unscathed.

Even though it was late at night, the voices coming from the other side of the door were still not at all dispirited and unhappy.

After hearing a faint knock on the door, the scout knight Amber, who was a little sleepless due to the noise of the thunderstorm outside the window, even raised his guard and didn't let the people outside the door wait for more than ten seconds. The gesture of sunshine appeared in front of the door.

Amber was always so energetic and sharp, but judging by the tears on his face, he still felt guilty for losing the Eye of God when no one was there.

"Eh!? It's Captain Qin and... a bard, why are they all drenched like this? Come in!"

When Amber opened the door and saw the knocker, her expression changed from serious to relaxed, then nervous and at a loss.

"Master Captain, have you found any clues about the Eye of God? I have recovered. Even without the Eye of God, I can continue to work..."

"No, here it is."

Qin shook his hair dashingly, and took out the eye of God that belonged to Amber from his pocket. The tight-fitting clothes were attached to his skin because they were stained with water vapor. Amber, who is also a woman, couldn't help her heart beating.

"Captain Qin, it's so big..."

So much attention was paid to Qin's proud figure that Amber didn't notice his own divine eye on the piano player.

"Don't be so weird about your focus, Amber."

Qin said helplessly, then held the Eye of God and shook it in front of Amber's eyes.

"My God's Eye!"

Seeing the familiar Jian Yu, a feeling of blood connection came to my heart, Amber shouted excitedly, and took the Eye of God that Qin handed over.

"Thank you, Head Qin, where did you find this?"

Amber held the lost and found God's Eye, and checked it over and over several times. After confirming that it was his lost God's Eye, he carefully hung it on his waist, and then touched it uneasy, making sure it was already on his waist. Hang in between.

"Let them explain to you, borrow your bathroom, Amber."

Qin took the towel and pajamas that Amber handed over and walked into the bathroom of the dormitory.

Famas is on Wendy's head, quietly exuding the power of the fire element, helping Wendy to evaporate the water droplets on her body.

Wendy put her hands between her legs obediently, her body was constantly emitting white water vapor, and the strands of hair wet by the rain were gradually fluffy.

"Cough cough, Miss Amber, it's like this..."

Feeling the warmth coming from her body, Wendy relaxed a little and began to explain why she wanted to steal the Eye of God.

"So...for Famas' recovery, more Eyes of God are needed, but..."

Wendy stood up and concluded, "I'm sorry for the trouble we've caused you!"

Famas also jumped up, waving his little hand a few times.

After listening to the explanation of the two, Amber smiled softly, skillfully used the power of the eye of God, and easily lit the fireplace to warm the two of them, and then walked to the table, intending to prepare some hot drinks.

"It's okay, I can understand."

Amber, who took out four cups, whispered.

"Amber, you are the most understanding little angel I have ever seen!"

Wendy danced and told Amber that Jyn, who happened to be taking a shower, came out of the bathroom in her pajamas.

"It seems that you have been forgiven by Amber?"

Looking at the fiery red back in a hurry, Qin sat back on the sofa and casually flipped the hair behind her and put it on her shoulders.

Amber took the tray, brought four glasses of warm milk, and handed them to Jyn, Wendy, and Famas in turn.

"Yes."

Wendy took the warm milk and said to Jyn with a grin.

"Um... Is that portrait a relative of Amber?"

After taking a sip of milk, Famas suddenly saw a portrait on the wall of Amber's living room, a middle-aged man with a beard and a doting look in his eyes, and a photo of Amber who looked like he was a child. .

"Yes, that's my most reliable grandfather, or I'll tell you his story..."

The sound of charcoal burning crackled, and on this sleepless rainy night, several people were sitting around the sofa, and Amber began to share the story of his proud grandfather.

Amber's grandfather was a mercenary commander from Liyue Harbor, responsible for protecting a caravan across the continent.In a certain escort mission, the caravan was violently attacked by a group of monsters. Only his grandfather escaped and was rescued by a physician belonging to the West Wind Knights.

In order to repay the doctor's life-saving grace, Wuyan's grandfather resolutely joined the Knights of the West Wind.

In the Knights, my grandfather established a squad of Scout Knights, personally trained and led them on missions.

Soon after, he also met the person he loved and started a family in this strange land.

But one day a long time later, Amber's grandfather left the knight's coat of arms and sabre with the Knights, leaving no message to anyone, so he left without saying goodbye.

After grandfather left, the scout knight squad that relied too much on him lost its backbone and became disorganized and dull.

After several fruitless missions, the status of Scout Knights became more and more marginalized. Although the squad retained its organizational structure, it was no longer in name.

The Cavaliers either transferred to other departments or retired and returned home. The [Scout Knight Squad] was finally sparse to the point where it was unable to complete daily patrol tasks.

What's more, some people see grandfather's departure as a defect, which undoubtedly makes things worse, making it even more difficult for the remaining scout knights.

"It wasn't until the appearance of the flaming knight Amber that the team of scout knights was rejuvenated again."

Wendy hugged Famas, who was still drying clothes, and praised Amber, who had been working hard to protect Mond City.

"No, little poet, I just did my job."

Amber, in pale red pajamas, squinted, enjoying Wendy's praise, rocking her upper body back and forth on the sofa, looking quite happy.

"We'll keep an eye out for news from Amber's grandfather!"

The fire in the fireplace was getting dim.

The four chatted very late.
