But I asked the system in my mind.
"Could it be that I've traveled through time, and all these characters have feelings for me?"
"You're quite clever, host. To further enhance your experience, I'll keep the system for you."
"You're such a jerk, system! Luckily, I don't have many characters with level 10 affinity. No wonder Wendy was willing to save me, a stranger, and even drink with me. What am I going to do now?"
Jue Xi was still thinking about what to do next when suddenly An Bo nudged him with his elbow.
"What's wrong, Amber?"
"Look ahead."
After Amber finished answering, Juexi pointed in the direction ahead with her finger.
Juexi saw a flying, floating creature leading a girl with short blonde hair.
"Hey, isn't this the executioner and emergency food?"
Chapter 17 Emergency Food
Even though Juexi knew who the two people in the distance were, she had to pretend she didn't recognize them for the time being.
"Two more unfamiliar travelers have arrived in Mondstadt today. Shouldn't Amber go and say hello?"
"Of course I'm going. What if I don't go? It's my duty."
After Amber finished speaking, she called out in the direction of Ying.
"Hey—you! Wait a minute!"
Amber slowed down her pace as she pulled Juexi along, thinking that Juexi might not be able to keep up with her.
Yingmei and Paimon looked at the two of them strangely.
Looking back now, it must have been really strange to be suddenly stopped by a stranger.
According to Amber's official statement.
"May the wind god protect you, stranger! I am Amber, a scout knight of the Knights of Favonius. You are not a citizen of Mondstadt, so please state your identity!"
Jue Xi thought to herself, "This is what I'm thinking."
"So, the way I acted yesterday was because I had feelings for you... System, where are my rewards? I've completed both daily tasks, right?"
"Congratulations, host. One thousand points have been credited to your account. Keep up the good work!"
Paimon waved his hand anxiously as he explained.
"Calm down, we're not suspicious..."
Amber crossed her arms and said.
"Suspicious people all say the same thing to you."
The traveler also casually revealed his name.
"Hello, I'm Ying."
Yingmei's voice is so beautiful, no wonder she's Ai Li. Sigh, I suddenly thought of my little bug. I wonder if she's eating well on the moon, if she's hungry, if she's dressed warmly, if she's caught a cold, if she's staying up late... Juexi was thinking about Kiana and got a little distracted when she suddenly heard that classic line.
"Emergency food".
"That's completely wrong! It's even worse than a mascot!"
Paimon stomped his foot angrily in the air.
Amber understood the two men's identities, but she still harbored doubts.
"In short, you're travelers, right? There have been dragons appearing around Mondstadt recently, so you'd better get into the city as soon as possible. It's not far from Mondstadt, so as a knight, I'll escort you for a while."
At this point, Paimon wasn't just a lazy, good-for-nothing mascot; he was asking Amber questions with his brain working.
"But you must have some kind of mission when you go out, right?"
Juexi suddenly interrupted the scene.
“Amber, how about I take these two travelers to Mondstadt? I will protect them.”
Amber pulled Juexi close and whispered in his ear.
"But I don't trust them. What if they hurt you?"
"Amber, you're so blatantly whispering to me like this. Paimon and the Traveler will definitely think you suspect them," Jue Xi thought to herself before speaking loudly.
"It's alright. Yesterday was an accident. I will protect these two strangers from harm. I'll just have to trouble Amber to go and complete the mission by herself."
Seeing Juexi's serious expression, Amber knew there was no room for negotiation.
Amber explained helplessly.
"Then you two should follow him for now. His name is Mu Juexi, and he will lead you to Mondstadt."
Paimon asked a question.
"Is he also a knight of the Knights of Favonius?"
"Um... he's my friend. I'm going to carry out my mission now. Goodbye, and may the wind god protect you."
After Amber finished speaking, she went to do her mission.
Little Paimon asked, puzzled.
Are all the knights of Mondstadt this strange?
Juexi immediately changed the subject.
"No, Amber is a very kind person. She was probably just nervous because it was the first time she had encountered a combination like yours, with emergency food and a foreign blonde traveler."
"My name is Paimon! I'm not emergency food!"
Paimon Stomp x2
Jue Xi deliberately changed the subject.
"Alright, alright, Paimon, there's plenty of good food in Mondstadt. I wonder if you're hungry after walking for so long."
"It's delicious!"
When Paimon heard those three words, it seemed as if some incredible attribute was activated.
"Let's hurry up and go!"
Paimon pointed ahead with great interest, even walking up to Juexi.
Yingmei was speechless... but she was also a little looking forward to it. After all, ever since she had been traveling for two months and had just woken up in Lonely Cloud Pavilion and caught Paimon, she hadn't had a proper meal. That little guy could eat so much. Her stomach was indeed very hungry, and she wanted to eat something good, so Yingmei strode after her.
"Hey, Paimon, did you see any dragons on your way here?"
I know the answer, yet I ask.
"Ah...I didn't see it!"
After a brief moment of thought, Paimon decided to lie. If the truth came out, he and Ying would be considered suspicious and wouldn't be able to have the big meal. He didn't want to think about it.
At this time, Yingmei was not yet the scoundrel Yingmei, but an honest and simple country girl who was lecturing Paimon.
"Paimon, lying is wrong."
Paimon was speechless for a moment.
"I……"
Jue Xi, fearing that Paimeng would be embarrassed, spoke up in time.
"Alright, I was just asking. It doesn't matter if you see them or not. I'll treat you to a big meal when we get to Mondstadt."
"real?!"
Paimon immediately perked up and continued talking.
"Juexi, you are such a good person!"
Jue Xi was speechless to herself. Why did everyone say that?
"I'll tell you a secret: if you encounter a dragon, the person next to it might be the Wind God. Legend has it that Dvalin, the Stormterror, is a servant of the Wind God. I've heard that the dragon has been appearing around recently, so it might be injured. The Wind God is probably healing Dvalin."
After hearing these words, the two slowed down.
"what?"
Paimon was surprised and flew to Ying's side, whispering something.
“Traveler, did we interrupt the wind god’s healing of his followers? No wonder the atmosphere was so tense.”
"Seems to be."
Yingmei's main characteristic is that she doesn't like to talk.
"Then let's help that strange person next time we see him, okay? Traveler?"
Paimon asked the traveler.
"it is good."
Juexi didn't even need to listen to know what the two had said. She had brought it up intentionally to make them feel a little guilty. That way, they would be more attentive when helping Wendy, even though she knew they would eventually help her since she was doing the main quest.
"Little Paimon~ Yingmei~ Hurry up, how come you've fallen so far behind me? The restaurant will be closing soon."
Jue Xi spoke loudly to the two people behind her.
"Hurry up, traveler."
Paimon grabbed Ying and chased after them.
Looking at Paimon's drooling face, Yingmei was speechless... None of us in the family would understand...
Jue Xi looked at the two people following behind her. She thought to herself...
"Qibao, I'll accumulate enough points soon, don't rush."
Chapter 18 Taking Over Mondstadt!
……
Kiana rubbed her eyes and got out of bed. That's right, ever since the captain disappeared, Kiana has been sleeping in the captain's bed every day.
"It's strange, this place feels so empty."
