Genshin Impact: My confession was rejected, so I traveled to seven countries

"Oh? An owner of the Eye of God? Are you sure you made a mistake?" the woman asked doubtfully.

The second black chess piece landed on the edge of the bright square, facing the first chess piece from a distance, seemingly without any connection.

"No~"

"Hmph! In my opinion, this move is useless!" The woman said as she moved the white piece to block the black piece's path.

"Hehe, you never know, it might be useful, and very useful!"

Mond City

A dark-skinned man with blue hair was directing the knights to prepare for defense against the impending danger.

When he saw Su Mo standing aside with a carefree expression, his brows furrowed slightly. He naturally knew that this guy was an envoy from Liyue.

But he suddenly took the leader's token and told him that the Fatui were going to attack Mondstadt tonight, asking him to be prepared. Although he was a little confused, he still pretended to do it for the safety of Mondstadt. But now, looking at Su Mo's leisurely expression, he couldn't help but doubt the truth of it.

Su Mo noticed Kaiya's expression and said with a smile: "What's wrong? Is there a problem? Or do you think what I said is false?"

Kaeya shook his head. "It's unlikely to be fake. After all, you're an envoy from Liyue, and doing this won't do you any good. Besides, you still have the captain's token. With Jyn's dedication to her duties, she definitely wouldn't lose something so important."

Su Mo nodded: "It seems that you really trust her."

Kaiya didn't care. "Isn't this the most basic quality between partners? By the way, can you tell me where they went?"

"Them? They might have already headed to the Wind Dragon Ruins under the guidance of the Wind God."

"Wind God!" Kaeya was a little surprised. Then, a sudden realization hit him: "I see. No wonder Jean wasn't in Mondstadt at such a crucial time, and instead gave you the token symbolizing the leader."

"You can follow my command now."

Kaia smiled slightly. "Of course. The Knights' duty is to obey orders."

Su Mo quickly declined: "Don't say that. If there is a problem, you'd better explain it clearly. Otherwise, if you put the blame on me, I can't afford it."

Lisa, standing by, smiled sweetly and said, "My dear, you are now the Supreme Commander of the Knights. You can command anyone in the Knights. You can ask me to do anything you want."

"Really?" Su Mo asked with interest.

"Of course. I wonder what the little cutie wants her to do." Lisa looked at Su Mo with a teasing smile.

Su Mo nodded seriously: "Okay, go and prepare for a defensive offensive. If Mondstadt is lost, I won't be able to explain to Qin."

"Tsk~ boring, boring, sister is busy." Lisa said and went to the distance to command the Knights to make arrangements.

At this moment, Bai Shi suddenly arrived with the Thousand Rocks Army from the Liyue Mission: "Master Su Mo, what happened?"

Su Mo was a little surprised to see Bai Shi. Because he came in a hurry, he had not had time to inform Liyue. What was going on?

"Why are you here? I remember I haven't notified you yet." Su Mo asked.

Bai Shi was a little confused: "Didn't you ask us to come? The Knights just informed us to come and help you."

When Su Mo heard this, he couldn't help but look at Kaiya.

Kaiya felt awkward for a moment.

Su Mo then said: "Oh, it was me who asked you to come. I was too busy just now and forgot about it. Since you are here, let's help Mond build defensive fortifications." After that, Bai Shi led people to join in the construction.

Su Mo looked at Kaiya with a somewhat unhappy expression: "Good fellow, you are still trying to play dirty with me, aren't you?"

Kaeya's face was a little embarrassed for a moment, and he explained awkwardly: "Well, I wasn't thinking about such a big incident. What if the Knights alone can't resist it? It just so happens that the Liyue envoys are also in Mondstadt..."

"I'll call it for you, so you don't have to make another trip, right?"

"Forget it this time. I wanted to notify them. However, I hope this situation will not happen again in the future. You also know that Liyue can participate in this matter and can withdraw at any time." Su Mo said coldly.

Kaiya understood the meaning behind Su Mo's words and bowed to apologize, saying, "Su Mo, I'm deeply sorry. When Qin comes back, you can report this matter to her and punish me, but for now, we should focus on the things at hand first and talk about it later."

Su Mo nodded and said nothing more.

Although he had thought about asking Li Yue to join in, due to the urgency of the situation he did not have time to call them over.

Kaeya notifying them was also within Su Mo's acceptable range. But what really displeased Su Mo was that Kaeya actually called the Liyue delegation over under false pretenses, which was a bit offensive.

Just when the atmosphere between the two was a little awkward, a cheerful voice was heard.

"Su Mo! Kaiya!"

Su Mo looked over and found it was Amber.

"Huh? Why does it feel like the atmosphere between you two is a little weird?" Amber asked puzzledly.

Su Mo shook his head and smiled, "Nothing, just discussing some issues. By the way, how are the arrangements going over there?"

Hearing this, Amber said confidently, "With me, the scout knight Amber, on our side, it will be easy to capture him. Don't worry."

Su Mo nodded: "That's good." Then he looked at Kaiya: "Apart from what we just discussed, are there any other loopholes?"

Although what happened just now caused some unpleasantness between the two, Su Mo felt that he was not as experienced as Kaiya, who had been working there for many years, in defending the city.

After hearing what Su Mo said, Kaiya began to think about the flaws in the overall layout.

"There shouldn't be any. We have already deployed troops to various locations in Mondstadt."

Su Mo nodded: "That's good. If it's just the Fatui, it's easy to deal with, but with the Abyss Cult added to the mix, it might be a little difficult to deal with."

At this time, Amber suggested: "Since the situation is so serious now, why don't I go and call Klee over. Although she is a little reckless, her bouncing bomb is still very powerful."

Su Mo fell into deep thought after hearing this. Klee was an elf, and her mother, Alice, was a traveler, traveling through various worlds. Before leaving, she entrusted Klee to the Knights and left her with a powerful bouncing bomb for self-defense.

Although having Klee here would certainly help, having a child join the fight...

Just as Su Mo was thinking, Kaiya said, "No, let's not talk about the powerful bombs. With Klee's reckless personality, she might accidentally injure us. Besides, we adults are all here now, so there's no need for the children to join the fight."

Su Mo couldn't help but look at Kaiya with respect, thinking that he might agree.

He immediately agreed: "I think Kaia is right. We are still here, so why do we need a child to join the battle? Let her rest well and have a sweet dream."

Amber nodded. "That's true. Klee went frying fish again today while Captain Jean was away. She's sleeping in her room now."

Kaia: "..."

At this moment, Amber suddenly exclaimed: "Su Mo, look!"

Su Mo and others looked over and saw a large group of Hilichurls slowly gathering here in the distance, including many large Hilichurls and Abyss Mages.

Su Mo looked at this scene, his eyes turned cold: "It seems that we have a lot of work to do."
