Genshin Impact: I am a scholar in Xumi

Take down.

Harold mentally gave a "thumbs up".

"They got off too easy," Paimon said, hands on his hips in dissatisfaction.

“From our perspective, they are certainly the culprits of this catastrophe, but from their perspective, they might also have wanted to save Mount Sumeru,” Nasita said gently.

"After learning that the World Tree had been healed and of all the efforts we had made, they all expressed their deep remorse. I could feel their sincerity. If they knew the details of the punishment, they would surely be happy about it."

really?

Harold expressed his curiosity, since the original story only briefly touched on the fate of Hazard and the others, and he was quite interested to see how these guys could happily engage in farming.

"What about the stragglers?" Paimon asked. "Those sages all went to help Harold grow rice. Is he going too?"

“Hmm… ‘Ah-Mao’?” Nasita pondered. “Originally, I wanted him to stay at the Order Academy to study and fill the gap in the military strength of Sumeru City, but… the scholars who participated in ‘that research’ now have strong resistance to the Fools, and I can’t ignore everyone’s feelings—”

“Wait, who is ‘Ah Mao’?” Paimon asked.

Naxi Da blinked: "Ama is Ama."

"The codename 'Scout' is too sensitive in the Order of the Order, so Lord Little Lucky Grass gave him a new name," Harold kindly explained.

So, no matter how hard the cannon went, it couldn't escape "Ah Mao's" grasp. Harold sighed to himself.

“I see.” Paimon nodded.

Nasita said, "So, having 'Ah Mao' involved in the research and development of seawater rice is a good choice. He once expressed his approval of Harold's ideas. In the remote village of Aru, he won't disturb anyone. He also assured me that he would return to Sumeru City immediately when I need his strength. But... I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you again, Harold."

“I think he will cooperate,” Harold said.

Anyway, the cannon listens to Nasida quite well, and his Oedipus complex has really kicked in.

"If he misbehaves, I'll immediately call his parents," Harold thought to himself.

Nasita smiled and said, "How wonderful! My sages and my friends are wise and kind people. Ah, just thinking about having you all by my side makes me feel as happy as the Deceptive Flower that is about to evolve into the Lightning Tree."

Nasita's praise brought the banquet to its climax, filling everyone with joy. They laughed and talked until late into the night.

【the next day】

Kong opened her eyes in bed, and a flash of white came into view:

"Traveler, you're awake! You ate so much yesterday, which means you're definitely my teacher when it comes to gluttony!"

"Harold and the others are heading out. Should we follow them?"

"They must be heading to the Order of the Church, right? Hehe, the Sage is the head of the Order of the Church, isn't he? I'd love to see what they're up to."

“Nasita, Tinari, and Setare are also in the Faith House. You can ask them any questions you may have.”

Paimon started chattering away.

Kong walked out of the room and overheard Harold talking to Elhesen.

Hearing the door open, Harold turned around apologetically: "Good morning, travelers, did I wake you?"

"No, no, what are you talking about?" Paimon asked curiously.

Harold: "The matter of establishing a 'Maritime Bureau'."

Paimon scratched the back of his head in confusion: "Maritime Affairs Bureau?"

Harold: "We promised Lord Little Lucky Grass yesterday that we would set up an institution similar to the Liyue 'Harmony Hall' in Ormos Harbor, so I stayed up all night studying the operation mode of the 'Harmony Hall' and drafted a first draft. I am currently discussing the details with Senior Elhesen."

"You've been doing this since you got back last night?" Paimon asked in surprise.

Harold nodded: "On the way back, a sudden inspiration struck me, and I thought of the name 'Maritime Affairs Bureau,' so I looked up some information on it, and before I knew it, it was dawn..."

Elhesen glanced at him disapprovingly and said to Paimon, "This lifestyle is not worth promoting. I would suggest that Little Lucky Grass King educate the residents of Sumeru City about the dangers of staying up late."

“I only do it occasionally, occasionally, you know?” Harold coughed lightly and continued, “Miss Ningguang is indeed from a merchant family. The operation mode of ‘Hutchison Hall’ can be described as comprehensive. I simply changed the names of those departments and copied them over exactly.”

"I didn't realize you were so good at slacking off," Paimon said, hands on his hips.

“That’s called improving work efficiency,” Harold retorted. “We won’t put these copies into use directly. I still have to go to Omos Port today to gather opinions from sailors and merchants… I’m quite busy today. Senior Elhesen, could you ask for leave from Lord Little Lucky Grass for me, and also help me handle the paperwork for the Order of the Church?”

“If I remember correctly, this is your first day in office,” Elhesen said.

“There’s a reason for this. Little Lucky Grass King will understand, and so will you, right?” Harold put his hand on Elhesen’s shoulder, his tone sincere.

Elheisen crossed his arms expressionlessly, showing Harold that he didn't understand.

Harold: "Please, once I'm done with this busy period, I'll transfer my students to the Order of the Church so they can share the workload with you."

Al-Hysen: "It's a good proposal, but I think the current work is beyond their capabilities. I refuse to let them into my office until you've trained them properly."

"...They really won't take a loss at all. As a senior, what's wrong with helping me mentor my apprentice?" Harold muttered, rolling up the draft on the table and helplessly saying to the sky, "Traveler, are you also going to the Order Institute? We can go the same way."

Paimon nodded vigorously: "Yes! Let's go."

“Come with me,” Harold said.

"Aren't you going to come together?" Paimon asked, looking at Harold and then at Elheisen, who had already walked to the other side of the room.

Harold rested a hand on her chin: "Well...because of the different modes of transportation..."

Paimon and Sora exchanged a glance. Although still puzzled, they chose to follow Harold.

Harold led the two out the door, and a black motorcycle emerged from the eye of God on his shawl.

"...What is this?" Paimon's mouth dropped open in shock.

“It’s a mode of transportation that can be powered by elemental forces. It’s the work of Senior Kavi. I have others here, and I’ll take you on rides when I have the chance.” Harold said as he climbed onto the vehicle and patted the seat behind him. “Get on, travelers.”

As a traveler who had visited many other worlds, Sora had certainly seen similar modes of transportation before, but this was the first time he had seen such a device in Teyvat. Having not ridden a motorcycle for a long time, he was even stunned for a second before stepping onto the back seat.

At this moment, Al-Hysen had already scooped his bicycle out of the house, then rode off in front of the three of them, and sped away under the watchful eyes of Sora and Paimon.

Paimon pondered for a moment: "Hmm... he's gone..."

“It’s okay, let him have twenty seconds. We’ll definitely get there before him,” Harold said to the two of them.

Paimon: "I'm not that—ah—"

Before he could finish speaking, Harold stepped on the gas and sped off. Kong was thrown backward by inertia and instinctively grabbed the waist of the person in front of him.

Three minutes later, the motorcycle stopped at the entrance of the Papal Court. After getting off, Harold put the motorcycle back into the Eye of God and said with a smile:

"So, traveler, how was the experience?"

"Wow, it felt like the wind! Can we do it again?!" Paimon exclaimed happily.

“Not now, I have to go to work,” Harold said regretfully.

Kong stretched out his hand to Harold:

1. "Can this kind of transportation be purchased in Sumeru?"

2. "This is very useful, are you planning to promote it in Sumeru?"

Harold pondered for a moment and said, "It's not possible right now, there are too many factors to consider... But if you want, you can buy it from me, but you need to make a reservation in advance, and I don't have any extra stock."
