"Really? That's why I tell you to be careful, Dad!"

Diona muttered as she bandaged Durave's wound.

"Ah... sorry to have embarrassed you. I'm not usually like this. It's just that my hands are shaking for no apparent reason today."

Durav's face turned red and he was extremely embarrassed.

"It's okay, let me do it. I know a lot about these things."

Feng Luo stood up.

"Then I'll leave it to you. It doesn't matter if you cut it off. You don't have to pursue being like me..."

Before Duraf could finish his words, he saw Feng Luo easily cut off a piece of ham that was as thin as a cicada's wing.

"Phew—this is really not easy."

Feng Luo sighed, then placed the piece of ham in front of the stunned Duraf.

"Mr. Durafu, this first piece should be yours. After all, you have made such a great sacrifice."

"Ah... Thank you, Feng Luo, have you ever cut ham before? You don't look like it's your first time cutting ham."

"No, but I'm an adventurer, so it's reasonable for me to know some Taoism, right?"

Feng Luo smiled, and Dulav began to doubt his life.

"Ah! The grilled mushroom pizza is really delicious! The sunset fruit tea is also very mellow!"

Diona next to her was also enjoying her dinner with big mouthfuls. Her eyes lit up after the first bite, which scared Bennett, who had been watching her. He thought something was wrong.

"Right~ I felt something special right then. The Deer Hunter Restaurant has performed above and beyond this time!"

Duraf paired ham slices with Diona's special clear wine. The original embarrassment was immediately washed away by the deliciousness, and a smile appeared on his face again.

Feng Luo cut a dozen more slices of ham, each of which was cut even finer than the Lanzhou beef slices. He then sat back in his seat and tasted the rare delicacy for the reporter with Bennett.

"Mmm! It smells so good!"

Feng Luo only took one bite and felt the specialness of this ham.

It’s extremely salty and melts in your mouth, and the texture of the meat seems different from wild boar from other places, with an extra grassy aroma.

"Hehe~ This is the wild boar that is unique to our Qingquan Town!"

Durav said with a hint of pride in his tone.

"Pork like this, even if it's just roasted, will turn out delicious!"

"I heard that there is a restaurant in Liyue called Wanmintang that specializes in making food for ordinary people. My goal is to have the wild boar meat from our Mondstadt Qingquan Town appear on the menu of Wanmintang!"

When talking about this, Durav was full of pride.

“I think that’s totally fine.”

Feng Luo also gave him a thumbs up: "If Xiangling eats this delicious wild boar meat, she will definitely agree!"

"Oh! Do you know the little chef from Liyue who is famous all over the continent of Teyvat?"

Du Lafu was quite surprised. Feng Luo's tone seemed like he was very familiar with Xiang Ling.

"Of course I know her. She said before that she would come to Mondstadt, but I don't know why she has been delayed now."

Feng Luo shrugged: "She is practicing gourmet food. The wild boars here are so special, she will come sooner or later."

"Hahahaha! Then I'll borrow your good words!"

Duraf was extremely happy, as if he had already seen the wild boar meat from Qingquan Town being sold well in various countries under the cooking skills of the little chef Xiangling.

"Alas... it's all because of this dragon disaster that our wild boar meat is hard to sell."

He sighed.

"Ok?"

Feng Luo had just finished eating the ham slices on his plate and couldn't help but feel moved when he heard this.

"Uncle Durafu, what's the general price of wild boar meat here?"

"Oh? Do you want to purchase our wild boar meat?"

“Yes, but I don’t know the exact price, so I just have an idea now.”

"No problem, our price is..."

Duraf and Feng Luo chatted happily until Bennett and Diona finished their meal, then they said goodbye reluctantly.

"So it's settled then? I'll make the bacon and wait for you to come get it."

"completely fine!"

After saying goodbye to Uncle Durafu and Diona, Feng Luo and Bennett returned to Mondstadt together.

There were no twists and turns on the road. Bennett went to complete the task and then visit his fathers. Feng Luo also had to go back to rest and recover his strength, so the two of them reluctantly parted again.

"I hope that next time you see me, I won't be in such a mess."

Feng Luo smiled bitterly. Today was really... Thanks to Bennett, otherwise it would have been embarrassing for him to starve to death in the wilderness of Mondstadt.

"It's okay! Feng Luo, I've been in danger many times, but as long as you need me, I will come to save you!"

Bennett's warm and sincere words were like a hot pack in winter, making Feng Luo feel warm in his heart.

He was still in a happy state until he got home and opened the door.

but--

When Feng Luo opened the door, he saw...

"Ying? Paimon?"

Feng Luo looked at the two people who were full of frustration in surprise. They were like two salted fish that had lost their dreams. They lay on the bed together, looking at the ceiling with empty eyes.

Shouldn't these two people go and solve the Wind Dragon crisis?

Oh!

Feng Luo suddenly understood.

Maybe because the problem has been solved, I have lost my goal.

"Even if the dragon crisis is resolved, you can't be so unmotivated."

As Feng Luo spoke, he walked to the table and hung the bottle around his neck again.

"Look at the way you look. This is not what a hero should look like..."

"Failed."

Ying's eyes were empty as he murmured.

"what?"

Feng Luo was stunned, thinking that he must be too tired, so he had auditory hallucinations.

"We failed."

Ying covered her face with a pillow, looking like she couldn't accept the reality.

"Tevalin's mind was bewitched by the Abyss Mage. It thought we were the people that Wendy sent to kill it. It felt that it was now being treated the same way as the dragon did. It smashed the Sky Harp and flew away..."

"The Skyharp is damaged. Even Venti can't do anything about it. Diluk is trying to track it. There's nothing we can do. We can only come back and wait for news..."

Paimon also covered his eyes with his little hands.

"What a failure... Such a failure... We clearly wanted to help... But in the end it turned out like this..."

"Well, there's no need to be so depressed, right?"

Although Feng Luo said this, his expression turned bitter.

I thought it was over!

"Feng Luo, are you okay?"

Lottia's concerned voice came into my mind.

"It's okay. Even the power of the abyss can't do anything to me... eh?!"

Feng Luo was suddenly stunned, and crazy thoughts arose in his mind.

Just by absorbing this tiny bit of the power of the abyss from Lotia, he could kick the lady's ass hard. But what if he absorbed the power of pollution from Tevarin?

Just thinking about it made his heart start beating wildly!
