I'm a male god in Liyue

He vaguely heard them saying something like "Ionia is indomitable, and even the gales will eventually return"—something he couldn't understand.

Li Shui and Xiao Yue also said they were going to sleep. Seeing Xiao's puzzled expression, they smiled and told him in a mysterious tone that after they met Mr. Xia tomorrow, they would take him to play something really fun that night.

Xiao was baffled.

There's no point in him sitting at the table alone drinking.

Xiao thought for a moment, then got up and walked outside.

Let's go and see the night view of Mondstadt.

I wonder if there are any evil spirits in the darkness of a foreign land...

Noelle finished training, wiped the sweat from her face, took off her heavy armor, rested in the backyard for a while, and prepared to go home.

Her home was some distance from the Knights of Favonius's headquarters.

Noelle, clutching her greatsword, walked down this familiar route.

As Noelle walked through a dark, deserted alley, she saw a person lying in a corner who looked like he had fallen asleep drunk.

Noelle kindly wanted to go over and wake the other person up.

As she approached, she discovered an even smaller, darker shadow next to the person lying on the ground, seemingly muttering something to himself.

Hearing footsteps, the dark figure turned around, revealing a pair of scarlet eyes.

Noel felt a sense of terror, as if he were being watched by a wild beast, and his steps faltered.

The shadowy figure approached Noelle without making a sound.

It didn't walk over, but rather seemed to float over.

This is not human!

A moment later, it revealed its appearance in the moonlight.

Its body is like that of a child, covered with red cloth with strange patterns on the long sleeves and hem. It has two small ears standing up like a rabbit on its head. Its face is not visible, only a pair of scarlet eyes are visible.

Noelle's pupils contracted.

She had seen information about this monster within the Knights of Favonius.

The Abyss Order – Fire Abyss Mage.

These abyssal monsters, possessing magic and fighting with fire element, are known to abyssal mages for some unknown reason. They are fluent in the clumsy language of the Hilichurls and can control their minds.

It is said that the Abyss Mage has some knowledge of the lost ancient language that is now almost undecipherable, and can use the power of this language to perform magic.

They also like to use the power of the abyss to bewitch and corrupt living beings.

The dragon plague in Mondstadt last year occurred for this very reason.

Noelle gripped the greatsword warily and glanced at the figure lying in the corner.

The abyss mage was most likely casting a spell to influence that person's mind.

If he hadn't been interrupted, that person might have become a pawn of the Abyss Order, suddenly erupting at some point in the future and causing chaos in Mondstadt.

The Fire Abyss Mage muttered incomprehensible words, and a red fireball appeared in his tiny hand, which he hurled at Noelle.

Noelle swung her greatsword, forcefully slashing away the incoming fireball.

That's it? This spell seems pretty weak?

When facing magic-based classes, the best way for melee classes to deal with them is to close the distance and prevent them from casting spells freely.

Noelle recalled the knowledge she had learned from her predecessors in the Knights, gripped her greatsword tightly, and charged directly at the Fire Abyss Mage, slashing the monster fiercely with her greatsword.

The Fire Abyss Mage seemed not to have expected her to act so decisively, and had no time to dodge at all.

You hit the target!

wrong!

Noelle saw that her greatsword had not struck the monster.

Not even close.

A thin layer of magical shield appeared on the surface of the abyss mage's body.

It was this red shield that easily blocked his greatsword.

A smug look flashed in the abyss mage's crimson eyes, and he let out a series of mocking sounds.

At the same time, a red fireball reappeared in its hand.

Oops!

Noelle had swung her greatsword too forcefully and didn't have time to pull it back to defend.

She could only use one hand to cover her chest.

The fireball exploded violently, its power many times greater than the fireball she had easily smashed with her greatsword before!

What a cunning monster...

Noelle had this thought in her mind, and her figure flew backward.

It slammed heavily onto the ground.

it hurts……

My mouth tasted fishy and sweet...

Several bones inside the body appear to have been broken...

My arm feels like it's being burned...

Noelle felt her head hit, and her consciousness seemed to become a little blurry...

Is this what the Knights' predecessors faced every day?

This terrifying monster... I couldn't even last one round against it...

I am indeed still far from being a true knight...

Noelle coughed, trying to get up from the ground.

She looked up and saw that the Abyss Mage had somehow floated right in front of her.

Her eyes met those scarlet eyes.

I felt a moment of mental disorientation.

The Abyss Mage began to chant in a language that was incomprehensible.

Noelle felt her emotions becoming increasingly volatile and violent, with countless negative feelings churning within her.

Why……

I've tried so hard, why can't I become a true knight!

Maid, maid, maid, everyone seems to think that I should be a hardworking and dutiful maid!

Another voice suddenly arose in Noelle's heart, whispering and bewitching her:

It's not you who's wrong, it's...

A struggle flickered in Noelle's eyes.

At that moment, a dark arrow fell from the sky and pierced through the Abyss Mage's body without any hindrance.

The monster seemed to be frozen in place, motionless, and after a few seconds, it quietly turned into a puddle of ashes.

Noelle snapped out of her dazed state.

Then, she heard a familiar voice behind her:

Noelle, are you alright?

"Miss Fischl?"

"it's me."

Fischl came over and helped Noelle up from the ground.

Despite Fischl's careful movements, Noelle's face still showed a hint of pain.

"Woo..."

"You look badly injured."

"No...it's okay..."

"You're alright? Your arm is burned like this."

"I...I'll go back and apply the medicine..."

“You can’t even stand up now, how can you go back? Besides, applying medicine will slow down the recovery process too much. Your arm probably won’t be usable for a month or two, and it may even leave a scar.”

"I……"
