Original God: Using a vest knife to make players and game characters cry

"Paimon, how much Mora did Nora give you?"

Paimon put his hands behind his back and said, "Um, weren't we going on a trip? After Nora found out, she gave me a letter and asked me to take it to someone in Liyue. She said these Mora are a commission fee!"

"So how much Mora did Nora actually give?"

“Hehe.” Paimon held up one finger.

"One hundred thousand?!"

Paimon shook his head.

"One million?!"

"It's 100 million..."

Ying's eyes widened suddenly: "Young Master Duo?!"

In the instant Ying was stunned, Paimon had already flown quite a distance.

Noticing that Ying hadn't followed, Paimon waved his little hand: "Ying, hurry up, I'm getting hungry!"

Ying ran up with small steps.

Paimon noticed that Ying's expression was off and asked in confusion, "Ying, what's wrong?"

"Nora?"

Paimon followed Ying's gaze and saw Nora lying under an apple tree, with two half-eaten apples beside her.

The sunlight was blinding, and Nora was lying in the shade under the fruit tree.

A book was placed over Nora's face. Paimon and Ying slowly approached and heard the even breathing sounds.

"Nora?!"

Little Paimon exclaimed in surprise.

Why would Nora be sleeping here?

It's far too dangerous. Monsters could approach at any moment, and if they attack while Nora is asleep...

Ying also thought of this, so she sat down and nudged the sleeping Ruola.

"No~"

Nora removed the book from her face, rubbed her eyes, and let out a soft, sleepy whimper, like a kitten.

"Luminous, and... and Paimon? What are you doing here?"

Paimon, hands on hips, said, "That's the question we should be asking. Nora, how could you sleep here? It's too dangerous!"

Nora scratched her head playfully: "I remember I went to deliver wine to Lord Barbatos, and then we seemed to talk about you guys... Yes, that's right, I told Lord Barbatos I was going to find you guys, and he brought me here. We rested here for a while, and I was a little sleepy, so I fell asleep..."

"So it was that unreliable busker!"

Ying was more concerned about another issue, which she asked Ruola:

"Nora, you said you were looking for us?"

When asked this, Nora seemed to realize something and immediately stood up: "It's like this, because I've been unable to pass the Knights of Favonius' selection, there must be something I'm not doing well enough. I consulted Captain Jean and my brother, and they said it's because I lack experience..."

"Noelle and I are in the same situation, but Noelle is studying very hard in the Mondstadt library, while I could only study for two days before giving up..."

When she talked about this, Ruola blushed a little, seemingly ashamed that she couldn't stick to studying in the library.

"I consulted Lord Barbatos, and he recommended you to me. I think that you were able to become honorary knights of the Knights of Favonius so quickly, and even defeat the dragon and save Mondstadt. There must be a lot I can learn from you!"

"Lord Barbatos said you'll be going to Liyue in a few days, and I'd like to take this opportunity to learn from you!"

Ying and Paimon exchanged a glance and couldn't help but puff out their chests secretly.

It seems to be saying: See? I'm that amazing!

"Hehe, Ruola gave me and Ying such a valuable gift before, and we were still thinking about how to repay you. Now that we can help you, it's so great, don't you think so, Ying!"

Ying chimed in, "Paimon is right, Ruola. Let's go on an adventure together for a while. Paimon and I are planning to go to the snowy mountains!"

Jola nodded, overjoyed.

Because not only Ying and the others agreed to her request, but also Mu Qingge, through her other identity in Liyue, discovered a special invitation quest for her, Ruola, in the game!

Fresh and still hot!

However, since it's an invitation mission, it means that even if I end up in the gacha pool, I'll most likely only get a four-star character.

But it's okay, there are many four-star characters that you can't even get if you want them, just like the starter characters. They're not just there to make up the numbers; you can only get them from the permanent banner. Doesn't that make you angry?!

Let's raise the hype a bit more, then I'll ask you if you want some!

Chapter 13 Reasons for Failing the Assessment

Nora couldn't help but laugh when she thought of something funny.

Paimon and Ying were completely bewildered.

"Nora, what are you laughing at?"

Nora quickly came to her senses, offered no explanation, but instead took out a silk scarf and brought it close to Ying's face.

There were several streaks of black ash on Ying's face, I don't know if it was from the torch of the Torch Hilichurl, but it looked really funny with Ying's expression at that moment!

Yingqiao blushed slightly, but did not flinch away, quietly waiting for Ruola to wipe her face clean.

As Nora wiped the dishes, she said, "By the way, are you hungry? I brought lots of delicious food!"

"delicious!"

Triggering the keyword, Paimon twirled his arms and did a backflip: "Nora, thank you. You knew Paimon was hungry and brought me delicious food. Paimon is so touched!"

"Haha, actually I have a habit of carrying a lot of food with me."

Nora remembers that the traveler's cooking skills were excellent; she wonders if she'll ever have the chance to eat a meal with him.

Right under this big tree, Nora first took out a cloth and laid it out, then took out a lot of food from the Eye of God space.

There were potato pancakes, Mora meat, tartare, Mondstadt roast meat, sweet flower-stuffed chicken, vegetable stew with meat, plus several rice balls.

Each of the items was carefully wrapped in lotus leaves, and the Eye of God also had a certain preservation effect, so these foods are still warm to this day.

"Wow, Nora, you're so kind! Then Paimon won't be polite!"

Ying also expressed her gratitude. Along the way, Ruola had helped her and Paimon so much, and they had received so much kindness, which made Ying feel a little embarrassed.

After all, Nora is so kind and innocent, unlike the people she had met before.

"This is juice. I brought several bottles. Paimon, be careful not to choke. Drinking some juice will make it more refreshing."

"Uh-huh…"

After finishing the meal, Ruola was a little dumbfounded. The portions of the dishes she had brought out were all very large. She thought there would be a lot of leftovers, but she didn't expect that they would all be eaten!

How does Paimon's little belly hold so much stuff?

"So satisfying!"

Paimon patted his little belly and showed a satisfied expression.

Ruola and Ying had finished eating. After tidying up their things, the three of them sat down to rest, as it is not advisable to engage in strenuous exercise after a meal.

Ying carefully organized the spoils she had just captured and stored them in her own space. Nora noticed that Ying stored them in the jewelry she was wearing, specifically the gems that shimmered with wind elements.

Another spacetime.

When I logged into Genshin Impact today, I found that the game had been updated. Upon logging in, I discovered that the update was still about Nora's Invitation Quest.

Generally speaking, you'll definitely be assigned a character when you go on a mission!

Guozi was excited and immediately started a live stream.

After greeting the audience, she said, "Family, Nora's invitation quest has begun. Today, let's do this invitation quest!"

[The live stream started so early today?!]

Has the fruit's timing been changed?

[What! Nora's quest has started?! Get up right now and let's grind!]

Guozi saw the comments in the live stream and explained:

"Didn't you say before that my progress was too slow? I checked and Genshin Impact updates in the morning. So, if Genshin Impact updates, I'll stream in the morning. If it doesn't update, I'll stream at 6 pm as usual."

[Yeah, this change is great! Genshin Impact is so much fun, I can't wait until tonight for updates!]

[With all the quests released, does this mean the adorable Nora is about to be added to the gacha pool?]

[It's still not too late to start saving up pink orbs. I've used all the pink orbs I've accumulated these past few days to pull for Venti, and I still haven't gotten him! Can't you believe it!]

[Hmm... I should have known better than to pull for Venti. Actually, I prefer Nora to Konan... There's a rumor that Nora uses a gun, streamer, check it out.]

[Hehe, I'm different, I want both Wendy and Rola!]

Guozi glanced at the comments and was surprised to see so many people watching the stream in the morning. She immediately clicked on the task guide and started Ruola's task.

Hehe, I like this fire-type spear girl...

……

"Ying, what are we going to do later?"

"Nora, do you know where there is any ore? I took Mr. Wagner's commission yesterday, but I haven't been able to find any yet."

"Of course I know. Come on, I'll take you there right now."

Nora stood up, stretched a bit, and seemed eager to try.

Having just had a good sleep and eaten, Nora is full of energy now.

Paimon: "Okay, let's go then!"

Mondstadt has many mineral deposits, but the ones that Rora remembers are the most concentrated, and several of them have already been mined.

When Noelle went out with her last time, Nora saw one, but she didn't pay attention to it at the time. Then came the Mondstadt scourge, so no one should have gone to mine it.

Nora led the way, guiding Paimon and Ying toward the mining site.

The mine is located to the right of the Dawn Winery and to the left of the Dadaupa Valley, just a little way from below the snow-capped mountains.

Although the distance was a bit far, the three of them traveled together and chatted along the way, so it wasn't boring or tedious.

"Ying, the Wind God said you are a traveler from beyond the world, and that he has learned a great deal from you. May I ask you for some guidance?"

"of course can!"

Nora's praise made Ying feel very comfortable. She put her hands on her hips and tilted her head back.

Paimon flew to Ying's side and did the same thing as Ying.

Nora suppressed a laugh: "We've participated in the Knights' Order's assessments many times, but we haven't passed any of them. I think the earlier assessments are fine, but the key is the later ones, which I've never been able to pass."

Paimon stroked his chin: "What will the next part of the assessment be like?"

"Well, it's a series of questions, asked by the senior members of the Knights of Favonius, and we answer them. For example, what to do if you encounter a Hilichurl on the road, how to deal with a stranger claiming to be a merchant, what to do if someone is injured..."

Ying asked, "So, Ruola, what was your answer?!"

Nora thought for a moment and told Ying the answer she had submitted at the time.

"If I encounter a Hilichurl, I'll rush in and eliminate them to prevent them from harming others."

“When I encounter strangers who claim to be merchants, I will ask them if they need help, according to the Knights’ manual, and then offer them help.”

"If I see someone injured, I will offer help immediately and take them to Mondstadt..."

Paimon scratched his head: "This doesn't seem to be a problem..."

Ying disagreed with Paimon's view; having traveled the world, she understood more about the diverse aspects of human nature.

Nora's idea seems reasonable on the surface, but just like Amber said at the time, people like her are not good at protecting themselves and are easily taken advantage of by those with ulterior motives.

This is probably why the Knights refused to approve her request.

But there's nothing anyone can do about these things. Even Diluc couldn't change Lola's mind, let alone anyone else.

Actually, everyone preventing her from passing the Knights' test was also to protect her, right? And that little maid named Noelle was the same way!

After thinking for a moment, Yingwen asked, "Nora, if someone's life is threatened by the guardians of the ruins, and you are injured and unable to save that person, but only you can save them, would you go and save them?"
