He stood up slowly, looked ahead at Diluk and stated his conclusion.
“Judging from their positions…” Kaeya suddenly looked at Diluk next to him, as if he had something to say, “These Abyss Mages… seem to be protecting Mondstadt?”
Diluc: "..."
Looking at Kaeya expressionlessly, Diluk was clearly in no mood to joke with him.
“Just a joke.” Seeing that Diluk ignored him, Kaeya regained his serious look and continued, “Let’s imagine the situation at that time. The mysterious man who caused this destruction should have wanted to enter Mondstadt, but these Abyss Mages did not realize his terrible strength and thought he was just an ordinary person. They wanted to hold him hostage or had other plans, and then... Boom——”
At the end, Kaia even made an attacking motion, as if he was the mysterious man he was talking about.
"It's also possible that they were chased here by that person..."
"Hey, hey, hey, if it's as you said, then they are too panicked. Do they want us in Mond to protect them?"
Kaeya couldn't help but interrupt Diluk's guess with a smile.
After all, the world is so big, and running directly to Mondstadt would be too hasty.
After that, Diluk didn't refute anything because what Kaeya said did make sense.
While the two were speculating at the side door, Wendy had already returned to Mondstadt through the main gate as if nothing had happened.
I still need to learn how to control my power... Otherwise, I'm afraid Mondstadt will be demolished by me...
Walking in Mondstadt, Wendy felt a little helpless as she recalled what had just happened.
Originally, she just wanted to control the airflow to teach those abyss mages a lesson, but she almost demolished the side door of Mondstadt.
You know, she really just used a little force.
Oh, I need to find a place to stay tonight, but I don't have any Mora...
Suddenly stopping, Wendy looked at the sky which had already turned completely dark and remembered that she still had no place to live.
Of course, it’s not that there is no place to stay. At least Zhuang Ning still has a place to stay tonight, but Wendy doesn’t.
So, she has a place to live, but she also has no place to live.
Where do you live?
As Wendy thought about it, this word appeared in her mind.
How about...the two of us sleep together?
Suddenly, Wendy came up with this idea.
However, she also knew that what happened at the side door tonight would definitely remind the Knights of the trap set by Fengqidi before, and then they might become more suspicious of whether Zhuang Ning had any connection with it.
And more importantly, Zhuang Ning is now at the headquarters of the Knights Templar, and it would be bad if someone discovered him.
It seems that I need a place of my own to live...
After much thought, Wendy felt that they still needed a place to live, but they didn't have a Mora now.
"This current commission..."
Catherine's voice?
And...commission?
Turning around and looking at the direction where the sound came from, Wendy found that there were several people surrounding Catherine, seemingly accepting a commission. This made Wendy know what she should do with Mora.
Amber is back?
Or... someone from another knight order?
Just as she was about to take a step forward, Wendy, who had shared memories, noticed that there was movement from Zhuang Ning's side, which made her subconsciously look towards the Knights' headquarters.
Knights Headquarters.
Could it be that someone came to ask me if I knew about the side door?
Listening to the footsteps coming from the stairs, Zhuang Ning, who was sitting on the bed, couldn't help but think so.
Although he had been here the whole time, he was the one who made such a big noise at the side door, so he couldn't help feeling a little guilty.
No, no, no...I feel guilty...
It was Wendy who made the noise... What does it have to do with me, Zhuang Ning...
Shaking his head violently, Zhuang Ning thought so righteously.
creak-
At this time, the door was pushed open and Amber walked in.
It was Amber...
Seeing that it was Amber, Zhuang Ning breathed a sigh of relief.
"Phew... Sorry, it took a little time."
Amber wiped the sweat from her forehead with her hand, looked a little out of breath, took out something wrapped in paper and handed it to Zhuang Ning.
Although I couldn't see what was inside, the aroma coming from it indicated that it was edible.
"Thank you, Amber."
After taking the still hot food, Zhuang Ning expressed his gratitude.
"No need." Amber smiled and shook her head. She seemed to be struggling with something, but in the end she said a little embarrassedly: "Um... I made this grilled steak myself. I originally wanted to buy some fried meat with honey sauce and carrots, but there were a lot of people there and I had to wait for a long time, so... so I went home and grilled a steak for you."
After saying that, Amber also felt her cheeks getting a little hot.
There was no way, this was the first time she grilled steak for a boy.
The main reason was that she was worried that if she waited too long, Zhuang Ning would be hungry for too long. After all, she was the one who brought him back, and it would be very impolite to let him go hungry for too long.
"Hmm... delicious. Your cooking skills are quite good, Amber. It tastes better than the fried meat with honey sauce and carrots."
After opening the package and taking a big bite of the steak, Zhuang Ning praised it highly.
"You probably haven't tried fried meat with carrots in honey sauce, so how do you know which one tastes better?"
Although she said that, Amber was actually quite happy when she saw Zhuang Ning eating the meat she had grilled with big mouthfuls.
"Because I put my heart into it. You mentioned that grilled carrots with honey sauce had a lot of people there. Based on my experience, when there are a lot of people like this, the chef only cares about speed and doesn't care whether it tastes good or not. So your grilled steak must be more delicious."
Based on his years of experience of eating takeout, Zhuang Ning gave the same answer. He is very familiar with the quality of food served when there are many people.
Not to mention whether the food tastes good or not, sometimes the takeaway he gets is not what he ordered. It's outrageous.
After saying that, Zhuang Ning took another big bite. He was really hungry.
"So that's how it is..." Scratching her head, Amber seemed to understand. Then, looking at Zhuang Ning wolfing down the food, she quickly said, "Be careful not to choke... Oops, I forgot to get some water. I'll go get some."
Before Zhuang Ning could react, Amber left the room at full speed, leaving Zhuang Ning staring at the still shaking door in confusion.
5~Embarrassed Zhuang Ning
【System, I have a question. 】
After Amber left again, Zhuang Ning planned to take this opportunity to ask the system why he was not hurt by the explosion.
However, after speaking for a while, the system still did not respond, which made Zhuang Ning a little confused.
【system? 】
【Tongzi? 】
【Atong? 】
After calling three times, the system still did not respond.
No way...no movement again?
Holding the last bit of grilled meat in his hand, Zhuang Ning sat on the bed with a helpless look on his face.
What sin had he committed to deserve such a system?
To be honest, if the system had a physical body, he would have already given it a few powerful Vajra Palms to see if it would still work.
Da da da--
At this time, a familiar voice came from the stairs again. Amber came back.
creak-
Along with the sound of the wooden door turning, a figure flashed in.
"Sorry for the wait, Zhuang Ning, some water and paper."
As soon as she entered the room, Amber handed the paper and a bottle of water in her hand to Zhuang Ning.
"Thanks, Amber."
After putting the last bit of the barbecue steak into his mouth and throwing the paper used to wrap the barbecue steak into the trash can, Zhuang Ning took the paper and drinking water that Amber handed to him to wipe his mouth.
Then he gulped down the drinking water in the bottle and wiped his hands and mouth with paper.
At this time, Zhuang Ning could be said to be well fed and satisfied, and he was having a great time.
“Is it really that delicious?”
Seeing Zhuang Ning's satisfied look, Amber found it hard to believe that it was her own barbecue that produced the effect.
Of course, it’s not that Amber thinks her barbecue steak is bad, but she thinks an ordinary barbecue steak is not a delicacy and is just for filling her stomach.
"Of course." Zhuang Ning answered as a matter of course, but he was a little confused as to why Amber asked that.
"Hehe, that's good, that's good."
Amber couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth. She was sincerely happy that Zhuang Ning gave such a high evaluation of her barbecue steak.
To be honest, at first she was worried that people would find it unpalatable, but the result was beyond her expectations.
"By the way, Amber, aren't you tired of standing all the time? Do you want to sit down for a while?"
As if he suddenly remembered something, Zhuang Ning said this after moving to the side.
In any case, it was impolite for him to sit while others stood, not to mention that they had to run around for him.
Are you feeling shy?
Seeing that Amber seemed to be thinking about something, Zhuang Ning decided to stand up so that she could sit down and rest.
"No, no, no." Amber found that Zhuang Ning was about to stand up, so she quickly asked him to sit down. After that, she also sat down next to him. "Just now I suddenly remembered that there was something I hadn't done yet, so I was stunned for a moment."
"Is that so?" Zhuang Ning nodded.
"So...what are your plans after this? You seem to be recovering very quickly."
After sitting down, Amber asked this question in order to ease the embarrassment and to know Zhuang Ning's next plan.
"What's next?" After hearing Amber's question, Zhuang Ning thought for a moment, "First, take on commissions to earn some Mora. Now I've lost all the Mora I had, and then find a place to live and settle down."
Because he thought it was a bit strange to travel without any Mora, Zhuang Ning made up a story that he had lost all his Mora.
"Did you fall into that pit? Sorry, I didn't see it when I brought you back."
Amber felt a little embarrassed, thinking that Zhuang Ning had lost Mora in that pit.
If she had been more careful at that time, Zhuang Ning's Mora would not have been lost there.
Although it had nothing to do with her directly, she had the opportunity to avoid such a thing.
"No, no, actually I lost it before that."
Unexpectedly, Amber had misunderstandings and even blamed herself, and Zhuang Ning quickly said that it had nothing to do with her.
No matter what, he didn't want others to feel guilty because of something he made up.
"So are you going to take on a commission tomorrow? I happen to have some missions as well, maybe we can go together."
Although Zhuang Ning said this, Amber still wanted to help him. After all, maybe he said that to prevent her from blaming herself.
"Okay." Zhuang Ning nodded casually, but soon he felt something was wrong in his heart because he had confused himself with Wendy.
