I'm a male god in Liyue

Unexpectedly, it was all eaten up by that little girl named Xia Lin.

Yura looked at Charlene's petite figure with a hint of surprise in her eyes.

Amber told her with a smile that Charlene was the champion of this year's competitive eating contest.

Yura nodded in relief.

After lunch, everyone went outside to continue shopping.

When passing by some old buildings, if she notices someone is interested in them, Yura will start telling them various stories related to them.

She seemed very familiar with the city's history.

With such a capable local guide like her, everyone's enthusiasm for shopping in the afternoon increased.

In the evening, everyone went to another decent restaurant for dinner.

Just like at noon, we ordered the most expensive dishes.

Yura was no longer surprised by this.

After a sumptuous dinner, Yura accompanied everyone for a walk along the lakeside before bidding farewell and leaving.

Although I didn't win the championship I wanted, it was a blessing to meet a group of new friends who had no prejudice against me.

However, due to the strange lightning anomalies that have occurred in many monsters in the wilderness of Mondstadt recently, and the reappearance of the Abyss Order, her guerrilla squad is now busy again and has little time to spend with these new friends. She has not had the opportunity to return the gifts she received.

Pity……

Yura walked home alone, thinking to herself.

A tavern.

Wendy seemed to sense something and turned to look at the doorway: "That's..."

The Dragon King turned his head and looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar figure, then paused for a moment: "Hmm? Li Shui Xiao Yue, you two, take a look, is that Xiao?"

Li Shui and Xiao Yue looked over and were also stunned.

"It does look somewhat similar."

"But Xiao isn't that tall."

Xiao walked over, looked at the Dragon King, and said, "Long time no see, Dragon King."

The Dragon King chuckled: "It really is you! Xiao! You've grown so much in all these years! I didn't even recognize you!"

"..."

Xiao looked at Wendy, who was sitting next to the Dragon King, and greeted him.

"wind……"

Wendy quickly interrupted him, "Hey! Just call me Wendy, come on, sit down!"

Xiao sat down: "Thank you so much for your help the other time..."

Wendy waved her hand and laughed, "Oh, it's nothing, don't mention it."

The Dragon King asked, "What do you mean by 'taking action'?"

Xiao said, "Last year, my karmic burdens erupted, and I almost lost my mind. It was the wind... Wendy's piano playing that helped me suppress it."

Wendy laughed and said, "I just happened to be passing by."

Li Shui and Xiao Yue were surprised: "Is that so? How come you've never mentioned it before?"

Xiao lowered his head: "I didn't want everyone to worry, so I didn't mention it."

Wendy looked at Xiao, a hint of interest in her eyes: "However, you don't seem to have any karmic aura left on you now..."

Xiao said, "Mr. Xia removed it for me some time ago."

Wendy nodded: "I see."

The Dragon King was still curious: "Xiao, what's with your height?"

Xiao paused for a moment, then said, "Mr. Xia made a dish before, and after eating it, I started to grow taller."

The Dragon King clicked his tongue: "So you're Mr. Xia too. No wonder. By the way, didn't you go to my house before?"

Wendy looked at him: "Your home?"

The Dragon King nodded: "It is the Abyss of Layered Rocks."

Wendy laughed: "Oh, that lousy place."

Xiao said, "The matter has been resolved. I just got back yesterday. Mr. Zhongli told me to come and find you, so I came."

Lord Xiaoyue asked in confusion, "You returned to Liyue last night. With your speed, you should have arrived in Mondstadt by now, right?"

Xiao explained, "I went back to Guili Plains again last night and searched for any traces of evil spirits..."

"As expected of you! You're so responsible!"

"Come on! Let's have a drink!"

Xiao drank two glasses and then asked, "Where is Mr. Xia?"

The Dragon King pointed in a direction: "He lives near the West Wind Church. Do you want to go find him?"

Xiao looked over there: "Now that I'm here, I should go."

"That's true, but it's too late now. Let's go together tomorrow morning, meet up with old friends, and have a meal or something."

"Mr. Xia would be very pleased to know that you have grown so tall."

Late at night.

In the backyard of the Knights of Favonius, Noelle, clad in heavy armor, was practicing swordsmanship alone.

In the past few days, her skills have visibly improved a lot.

This was all thanks to the practice she did with Yao Yao that morning.

As expected, constantly hacking and slashing at the dummy was useless.

The sound of the greatsword cutting through the air rang out continuously, accompanied by Noelle's panting.

Even though she was drenched in sweat, her eyes were still very bright.

If this trend continues, I'm sure I'll become a true knight this year!

--

The Knights of Favonius's office.

Qin stood by the window, looking down at the figure training hard in the backyard, a helpless smile appearing on her face.

Oh, Noelle, that child...

As the most outstanding maid in the Knights Order, Noelle is a reassuring presence most of the time, but occasionally there are exceptions.

Qin recalled that once Noelle heard that an adventurer was trapped in the Dragonspine Mountains. Without telling anyone, she immediately packed her gear and went into the mountains alone to rescue him.

The blizzard that day was as ruthless as a ferocious beast, instantly erasing any trace of tiny humans left on the snow-covered mountain. Finding a safe route up the mountain was difficult enough, let alone searching for someone already buried under the snow.

But Noelle persisted in the search and rescue operation despite the perilous conditions. After a long time, she finally found the adventurer, who was nearly frozen to death, in a cave.

By this time, Noelle's cotton coat was soaked through, and the water in her canteen had frozen solid. Despite being hungry and cold, she mustered her last bit of strength to carry the adventurer down the mountain.

The adventurer was rescued, but Noelle collapsed from exhaustion. For three whole days, she remained unconscious due to a high fever, and the entire knighthood tossed and turned, worried sick about her.

Fortunately, everything ended well.

Similar incidents have occurred more than once, and the senior members of the Knights of Favonius all feel sorry for Noelle. To prevent the well-meaning Noelle from falling into danger, Jean can only try to "invent" safer tasks for her, keeping her away from peril. However, if something truly serious were to happen, it would be Kaeya's turn to step in.

During the dragon plague in Mondstadt last year, Noelle was eager to personally address the source of the disaster. However, thanks to Kaeya's careful planning, she was kept away by countless "emergency missions" and spent her time running around the city until the crisis ended.

Noelle is still too inexperienced.

But Qin observed that the strength she displayed during training had already surpassed that of ordinary knights.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, Noelle will definitely be able to become a true Knight of Favonius this year.

Qin still has a headache about how to arrange a suitable job for her...

After watching Noelle's training for a while, Jean turned back to her desk and continued working overtime.

Outside the window, on a leaf on a tree branch, a point of light is slowly flickering.

It was a tiny firefly.

Xiao originally thought that the Dragon King and Wendy would drink all night long.

In his memory, these two men were heavy drinkers, and whenever they drank together, there was only one outcome: they would drink until all the alcohol was gone.

But to everyone's surprise, when it got late at night, the Dragon King and Wendy stopped drinking and said they wanted to go back to sleep.

Xiao was somewhat surprised.
