Genshin Impact: I am a scholar in Xumi

"In that case, both of you have no objection, right? Then I'll have to trouble you next." Nashida extended her hand to Harold and Elhaisen.

"...Actually, I don't really want to take on this responsibility, but considering there are no other suitable candidates right now—"

Harold shook his head in embarrassment, but muttered in his heart: Let me taste the saltiness of this cake.

Elhaisen did not refute it anymore, but just said: "Master Xiao Jixiang Grass King, if you find a more suitable candidate later, please give us the right to resign freely."

"Of course, in Xumi, everyone has the right to choose their own life, and sages are no exception," said Nashida.

Well, now that we've covered the advantages, what about the disadvantages? Harold's thoughts wandered a bit, and then he quickly continued:

“I am happy to contribute to the reconstruction of the House of Worship.”

"That's great, now we have two backers in Xumi!" Paimeng said happily to Kong.

Sora nodded vigorously in approval.

"We are just agents. We may not be sages when you come back next time." Harold spread his hands.

"Huh?! Did you hear that?!" Paimon seemed frightened.

"You're being too loud," Harold said helplessly. "So, traveler, don't be away for too long. Come back when you have time, and I'll introduce you to my latest research."

Sora smiled and nodded.

"Huh, everything is finally over. Let's take a nice bath together and then attend a celebration party together!" Nashida said happily.

"Celebration party? When? Today?!" Paimon said in surprise.

Nashida nodded. "To celebrate our victory, the resolution of the crisis, and the appointment of the two acting sages, I would like to invite everyone to this banquet. Traveler, could you please inform everyone?"

Sora: "No problem."

[Task: Invite everyone to the evening banquet (0/6)]

Paimon floated in front of Sora: "Who should we invite to the dinner? Hmm... Harold, Kavi, Elhaisen... Tinari, Senor, Nel... Who else? Forget it, Traveler, let's go to the Ordination Court first and inform everyone we meet!"

Sora nodded, then rushed to Harold:

【dialogue】

Harold: "Can I ask the Little Auspicious Grass King to bring my experiments to the banquet? If she agrees... I wonder if the Grass God's elemental power will promote their evolution -

Traveler, I already know about the banquet and I will attend on time. Please inform the others.

Sora walked over to Kavi:

【dialogue】

Kavi: "Ah? My two juniors are going to become sages? My dignity as a senior... cough cough cough, of course, they are capable of handling those things, I just don't want them to work too hard--

Traveler, thank you for letting me know. I will go with them and bring my specialties with me. You can look forward to it."

Sora walked over to Elhaisen:

【dialogue】

Elhaisen: "I hope that after someone helps share the burden, this job won't take up too much of my time——

OK, I understand, I will go if my schedule is not full."

Sora walked over to the Skirmisher:

【dialogue】

“…——

I can't think of any reason why you would put me on the shortlist, do you really have to insist on doing this?"

Sora ran out of the Ordination Court and saw Tinari and Seno near the pavilion outside the Palace of Wisdom.

Sora to Tinari:

【dialogue】

Tinari: "Finally I've finished dealing with the book collection issue. Sigh... my teacher is trying to get me to work at the Order again. I need to find a way to pass Harold to him—"

What? Harold and Elhaisen are already acting sages? Hmm... the teacher will be very happy to know this. I will attend the banquet. I really want to talk to Harold and hear his thoughts. Traveler, do you mind if I bring Harold's teacher with me?

Sora to Seno:

【dialogue】

"Unexpectedly, yet also within reason, the two of them are indeed suitable for that position. I will constantly monitor them and urge them to fulfill their duties. I won't let my guard down just because we've fought side by side before—"

Well, okay, I should be available, I will be there on time, and I have a surprise for everyone - you will know when the time comes."

Sora and Paimon walked down the stairs and saw Setare numbering the damaged books that were being moved out of the Ordinariate.

Sora walked towards Setare:

【dialogue】

"Are you the traveler?! Nice to meet you. I'm Setare, the former sage's assistant—"

Did you hear about me from Lord Little Jixiangcao? I'm glad she recognized my contribution to this operation... But the banquet... I don't know if the presence of a convicted person is superfluous, a banquet for the victors, a feast representing hope and rebirth...

What? Lord Harold will be there too? I am honored to receive your invitation. Thank you, Traveler."
