People in Teyvat, starting from saving the grass god

"If it's over, just cut it off."

"It was originally an old sword. Didn't I tell you before? This is the weapon I used to practice swordsmanship. It is not a good thing in itself."

Desiya was not as unhappy as Rhodes imagined. Instead, she comforted him and picked up the broken sword to inspect it.

"This is a gift from you after all."

While Desiya was inspecting the broken sword, Rhodes scratched his head in embarrassment and muttered.

"It's not a valuable thing in the first place. If it breaks, it breaks. It's no big deal."

"Let me see what's going on."

"Hey, it's broken."

Desiya had much more experience than Rhodes, and she could roughly guess how the sword was damaged with just a quick glance.

I saw her rubbing her chin and saying thoughtfully: "Come here and try to break your wrist."

"No need to try."

"I'm just too strong now, so I accidentally broke it when I was practicing my sword."

Of course Rhodes knew that Desiya wanted to test how his current strength was, so he told the matter decisively.

"it is as expected."

Disia thought for a moment: "The reason for the two God's Eyes?"

"Ah."

"should be."

Rhodes nodded.

"Tsk, it really is."

"But I don't have any good weapons on hand to give you now."

"Go forge one or buy a new weapon."

Desiya gave a suggestion: "Your current strength is not suitable for using a sword. You can use a gun, a stick, or a hammer. An ax is better than a sword."

"But I only know how to swordsmanship."

Rhodes frowned slightly when he heard the suggestion of changing weapons.

"What's that?"

Disiya laughed, grabbed the hoe in the corner, and danced it gracefully a few times.

Done.

She held her hoe and looked at Rhodes with a smile: "How is it? Did you see it?"

"Ah, this"

Rhodes' face moved slightly, not knowing what to say.

"I've said it before, my swordsmanship is a wild method that I figured out by myself."

"No matter how well you learn from me, it's still a wild road."

"There is no comparison with other people's systematic swordsmanship and spearmanship. In terms of pure martial arts, I can only bully those who have not been systematically trained."

"And I use the sword because I have a good sword in my hand, not because I only know how to use the sword. If you give me other weapons now, I can use them just as well."

"So it doesn't really make any difference what weapon you use now."

Disia patted the strong muscles on Rhodes' arm and said, "Hey, look at this great strength. If you don't use it properly, why are you clinging to my wild swordsmanship?"

"Moreover."

"You don't need to pick any expensive weapons, as long as the material is strong enough to withstand the infusion of elemental power, and the heavier the better, that's enough."

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 43 Who dug up my land!

Desiya's meaning is clear.

It just so happened that Rhodes hadn't learned any real swordsmanship yet, so he just gave full play to his strengths and took a route of defeating all methods with one force.

to this end.

Desiya also deliberately tested how strong Rhodes was now.

As for the results.

That means there is no result.

Rhodes didn't have precise measuring tools here, so what he knew was that he could easily hold up a bookshelf with half a shelf of books in one hand, and the bookshelf could still remain stable.

The key is.

Easy.

There was absolutely no sign of difficulty on his face.

Although this simple and crude method of resisting heavy objects cannot determine where Rhodes's limit is, Desiya already has a rough idea.

"Come to Xumi City with me when you have time."

"The blacksmiths here don't have such good skills and can't make weapons suitable for you."

During dinner in the evening, Disiya said seriously: "It just so happens that I have to go back this time to see if there are any commissions I can take on. You can just come with me."

"We have to go to Sumeru City."

Rhodes took a sip of the juice, thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it won't be possible recently. The delivery time agreed upon by Dolly and I is within the next few days. I have to inspect her goods when they arrive. rest assured."

This is a nuisance.

Disiya didn't mean to rush him: "Then wait until you have time."

"Ah."

Rhodes nodded.

Anyway, he is no longer in the guard team, and he doesn't need to face the monsters in the sandstorm. It doesn't make much difference whether he has weapons or not.

And in Aru Village.

With Candice here, I am not afraid that anyone will come to trouble me.

While the two were talking.

The more the mercenaries drank in the yard, the happier they became, and the noise and singing gradually became more and more unrestrained.

Rhodes prepared a lot of wine today, all of which are the most popular spirits in the desert and the ones that mercenaries like to drink the most.

As for the food.

He imitated the buffet style in his previous life, placing all the prepared dishes on large plates, and then everyone had a small plate, and they could eat whatever they wanted.

Rhode's cooking skills are actually very average.

But the best thing is novelty, the way of eating is novel, and the dishes made are also novel, many of which are fresh styles that no one has ever tasted.

The taste is pretty much the same.

Desiya likes to eat the sunset fruit stew made by Rod.

Sounds like dark cuisine.

But that was because he couldn't find any familiar fruit on the Teyvat continent, so Rhodes had no choice but to use the sweet sunset fruit to make this dish.

The finished product is quite satisfactory, it is sour and sweet, and quite popular.

Disiya loves sweets.

Among the food she carries with her, date palm honey made from date palms is essential.

This is a candy made with date palm, butter, various dried fruits, and Xumi’s characteristic flower Xumi rose.

Depending on the recipe, there are many varieties, varying flavors, and different prices.

Disiya's favorite is date palm sugar made with almonds and raisins, and she eats a few pieces every day.

If you are executing a commission in the desert.

I need to eat more throughout the day.

"I almost forgot, this is for you."

Seeing that Disiya was happily eating sunflower stew, Rhodes went back to the house and took out a small bag and gave it to her.

"what is this?"

Desiya chewed the stew in her mouth and pinched it casually.

There were some small pieces in the bag, and I couldn't tell what they were.

Open it and take a look.

It is a pile of long milky white squares.

"Sniff, sniff-"

"Huh? Candy?"

Desiya's nose moved twice, and then she blinked in surprise.

Sweet.

Is this thing sugar?

"Milk candy, I made it myself."

Rhodes smiled and said, "I haven't done it for a long time. My skills are a bit rusty. How do you like it?"

Milk candy?

Another new thing that I have never heard of.

Ever since Rhodes told Disia that he came from beyond the stars, he would often come up with new and interesting gadgets like this.

Face the sweet temptation brought by milk candy.

Desiya could no longer suppress her curiosity, picked up a piece and stuffed it into her mouth.

As soon as you enter.

The pleasant milky fragrance and light sweetness made Desiya instantly feel so comfortable that it felt as if all the pores in her body were open.

"Well, it's delicious."

After chewing a few times, she swallowed a piece of toffee.

Dixia, who was still unsatisfied, licked her lips and picked up another piece of candy and put it into her mouth.

"Don't chew it yet, hold it in your mouth for a while."

Rhodes reminded her thoughtfully.

"Don't chew?"

Desiya held the toffee in her mouth and tilted her head to look at Rhodes.

Are there any sweets that don’t need to be chewed?

However, she still followed Rhodes' instructions honestly and did not chew the toffee again, but patiently savored the aroma and sweetness emanating from it.

"Well, it really tastes better."

"That's it, it became a little bit, a little bit."

Desiya couldn't help but chew it.

But judging from the effort she put in, it seemed like she was having a hard time eating this time.

"It will be like this if you hold the toffee for a long time. It will become sticky to your teeth. It will melt away after a while."

Rhodes laughed and explained.

"It's delicious, that's all? Is there anything else?"
