Ying watched Paimon walk away, a trace of helplessness on his face.

She turned to Wendy and asked her question.

"By the way, why doesn't the God of Wind care about this matter?" Ying asked.

Wendy shook her head.

"The Wind God has granted everyone in Mondstadt the right to freedom. Since he has handed matters over to the Knights, he naturally cannot interfere too much. The affairs of the world should be decided by humans. The gods exist only to better protect their people."

Then he looked at Qin: "Captain Qin, how about my story?"

Jean nodded, then shook her head. "It's a good story. I seem to have heard about this before, but those were announcements from the Knights. This is the first time I've heard of these inside stories. It seems the Knights really do owe Diluc a debt."

Wendy was a little surprised. "Oh? Aren't you angry that the Knights didn't act impartially in this matter for the sake of their reputation? Or is it that this is so different from your impression of the Knights that you find it unbelievable?"

Qin smiled faintly: "If you think so, then you underestimate me. As for anger, of course there is. Although I haven't experienced it personally, I have a certain understanding of it. This matter is indeed wrong for the Knights."

"As for the difference in impression? As you just said, things in this world can't remain static. When there are more good people, there will naturally be bad people. This story not only doesn't make me feel uneasy, but it has strengthened my resolve to protect Mondstadt. As acting leader, I can't do everything perfectly, but I will definitely do my best to prevent such things from happening again. This is true responsibility!"

"Hmm... That was a truly inspiring speech. Keep it up!" Wendy nodded in praise. He had originally thought that Jean's faith would be damaged and she would question the meaning of life. Now it seemed he had been superfluous.

"Diluk, Diluk, I heard that you survived the eleven executioners of the Fatui. Is this true?" Paimon excitedly caught up with Diluk and asked curiously.

Diluk paused, looking at Paimon in confusion. "That's right, how did you know that?"

Paimon pointed to Wendy behind him and said, "Wendy said that. He also told us the story of your father. Your father is really a hero."

Diluk glanced at Venti, and then heard Paimon's praise. A sincere smile appeared on his face: "Of course, in my heart he is a hero."

Paimon chuckled and said, "I think so too. How did you survive them?"

Diluk, in a good mood, couldn't help but talk more: "Actually, it was said that eleven executive officers took action, but in fact most of them were just watching the show. They only sent the last one to take action, saying that they wanted to train that person's martial arts." As he spoke, a trace of memory and admiration flashed in Diluk's eyes.

"However, that person's martial arts skills are indeed good. He uses the water element to perfection and can switch weapons at will during battle, making him unpredictable."

When Su Mo heard this, he knew who that person was and asked with a smile: "Did you win in the end?"

"Yes, yes, what happened in the end? Who won?" Paimon asked excitedly and curiously.

Seeing the two men's expectant eyes, Diluk snorted coldly and said proudly, "Of course I win. Although that person is very strong, he is still not enough for me."

"Wow, so amazing." Paimon said admiringly.

"And then what? Then what? A more powerful executive officer took action?"

Diluk was a little embarrassed when he heard this: "No."

"Huh? They just let you go."

Diluk shook his head.

"Then what happened? Tell me quickly, I'm so anxious." Paimon urged.

Diluk said somewhat embarrassedly: "Although I defeated that man, for some reason he had an unyielding momentum. Every time I knocked him to the ground, he would immediately stand up, without feeling any fatigue at all. In the end, I really couldn't hold on any longer, so I lost to him." After saying that, Diluk turned around and faced everyone with his back.

Paimon looked at Diluk's somewhat embarrassed back and didn't know what to say for a moment.

We had defeated the opponent, but then he stood up again and again, causing us to lose a move in the end.

Tsk, is this a loss or a win?

What if you win?

Su Mo said, "This guy is quite interesting. He pursues the pure heart of martial arts and stands up again from where he fell. You can't completely defeat such a person. You can only make him stronger."

Diluk said, "Indeed. I don't know if it's my imagination, but I can sense that every time he stands up again, he becomes stronger than before."

"That's really a strange person. He goes up just to get beaten and he can improve himself. And then, what did they do to you?" Paimon asked.

Diluk replied, "They said they admired my abilities and asked if I would like to join the Fatui, possibly becoming one of their executive officers."

Paimon pressed on: "Then your answer must be no. After all, they were the ones who killed your father."

"Of course! If I have to choose between joining the Fatui and eating an ice slime alive, I would rather choose to be crushed to death in the cracks of the earth by a huge meteorite falling from the sky." Diluk said lightly.

"Oh my, Master Diluk really has a strong personality."

Paimon looked back and saw that it was Wendy and others who had caught up.

Wendy looked at Diluk with a smile on her face: "I didn't expect that Master Diluk has such a strong character. We are kindred spirits. Since we are kindred spirits, I think it won't be a problem for you to waive the bill for drinks in the future." Wendy's tone was full of anticipation.

Diluk snorted coldly and ignored Wendy.

Qin intervened, saying, "Wendy, please stop teasing him. After all, it would be unpleasant to be teased about something like this."

Wendy disagreed.

"Tsk~ It's boring..."

Su Mo suggested: "Let's go quickly. If we delay any longer, Mondstadt might soon be in winter."

Everyone nodded and continued to move forward.
