I'm a male god in Liyue

"Okay, don't worry, Qiqi can help you."

Noelle was taken aback by what she heard.

77?

help me?

Fischl turned to the raven on his shoulder and said, "Oz, go find Seven and bring her over."

"Okay, miss."

The crow spread its wings and flew into the night sky.

Noelle looked up, staring blankly.

Fischl asked, somewhat puzzled, "It's so late, why haven't you gone home yet? Have you been busy all this time?"

Noelle snapped out of her daze: "No...no...I was...training..."

"train?"

Fischl suddenly realized.

No wonder you smell of sweat.

Noelle lowered her head shyly: "I'm sorry..."

Fischl laughed and said, "It's nothing. I actually admire you quite a bit. You train hard every morning and every night, and you also do all sorts of maid work during the day. It's amazing that you've been able to keep going like this..."

Noelle lowered her head and suddenly fell silent.

Fischl didn't know why she was so downcast, but thought it was probably because of her serious physical injury, so she kept quiet.

Several dozen seconds later, a white sword light flashed across the night sky.

Qiqi descended from the sky on her flying sword.

Oz followed behind Qiqi and landed on Fischl's shoulder.

Fischl quickly said, "Noelle is injured, Qiqi, please help her heal."

Qiqi looked at Noel and said calmly, "Okay."

She then raised her hand and cast a fourth-tier light spell, Holy Light, on Noelle.

The soft white light fell on Noelle, and she felt the discomfort and pain in her body disappearing rapidly. The burning pain in her arm was gone, and instead, she felt a little itchy.

Noelle instinctively scratched it lightly with her other hand, which removed a layer of charred black scab.

By the moonlight, she could see a patch of fair skin underneath, without a single scar.

"this!……"

Noelle was stunned.

Qi Qi asked softly, "How are you feeling?"

Noelle left Fischl's support, stood on her own, stretched her body slightly, and said incredulously, "I feel perfectly fine."

Qiqi nodded, looked down at the pile of ashes at her feet, and frowned slightly: "Oz told me about it on the way. It was just a mere Abyss Mage. You are the owner of the Geo Eye, which is best at defense. How could it have injured you like this?"

Noelle felt incredibly embarrassed, biting her lip, "I...I underestimated my opponent..."

She had absolutely no experience fighting monsters properly; she had only ever practiced with dummies before, and only recently had she sparred with Yao Yao.

Fischl chuckled and said, "Haha, it's alright. You're actually doing well. Last time I encountered a monster in the wild, I didn't even have the courage to fight back. I fared even worse than you and could only sit on the ground waiting to die..."

"How is that possible? You're so strong, you wiped out the Abyss Mage with a single arrow..."

Noelle didn't quite believe it, taking Fischl's words as a joke to comfort herself, but that comfort seemed to hurt even more.

Oz spoke up: "What the young lady says is true."

Noelle still didn't believe it. She realized something and asked, "By the way, what are you two doing here so late?"

Fischl smiled mysteriously: "Guess."

"..."

"Hahaha, you know Dark Night Heroes, right? We are magical girls, just like Dark Night Heroes."

"Magic... girl?"

"Yes, magical girl, the power that Nana used to heal you was light magic."

"Light...magic..."

Noelle's attention was drawn to Seven and Fischl's outfits.

One was pure white, the other pure black; their styles were very different from their daytime outfits.

If pure white represents light, then wouldn't pure black...?

Noelle looked at Fischl and couldn't help but ask, "Then the power you just used to destroy the monster, was it dark magic?"

Fischl laughed and said, "That's right!"

Noelle seemed to understand, but more questions arose in her mind.

Qiqi suddenly spoke up, "We can talk about these things later. It's already very late. You should go home first."

Fischl nodded: "That's true, don't let your family worry."

Noelle paused for a moment, then said, "Okay."

She could only suppress her questions for the time being and bent down to pick up the greatsword.

Fischl turned to look at the raven on his shoulder: "I'll have Oz take you back."

Noelle did not refuse the offer; she performed a standard maid's bow: "Thank you, and goodbye, both of you."

"Goodbye."

Noelle, clutching her greatsword, walked away silently.

Fischl watched Noelle's retreating figure and whispered, "Seven, didn't you feel that Noelle's emotions seemed a little off just now?"

Qiqi reached out and teased the sparrow on her shoulder, saying softly, "It's normal for her emotions to fluctuate in the face of such a sudden and unexpected situation... Who?"

Qi Qi seemed to sense something, looked up at the rooftop high above, and formed a sword incantation in her hand.

A tall, slender figure stood quietly there.

Fischl looked up and saw it, and was startled. He instantly drew back his dark longbow and shouted at the figure, "Who's there?"

"Miss Qi, there's no need to be nervous."

A cold voice came, and the figure on the roof disappeared, appearing in front of Qiqi and Fischl the next moment.

"it's me."

Qi Qi looked at the person in front of her, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes: "You are... the Great Sage Who Subdues Demons?"

Xiao nodded, noticing the strange look in Qiqi's eyes, and said with a hint of helplessness, "Yes, Miss Qiqi, you don't need to doubt me. I just grew a little taller because I drank Mr. Xia's soup."

Qi Qi, still holding the sword incantation in her hand, frowned and asked, "Wasn't the Great Sage of Demon Subduing supposed to go to the Abyss of Lapis Lazuli? How come he's in Mondstadt?"

Xiao explained, "The matter of the Abyss of Laminaria is finished. I just arrived in Mondstadt tonight and have already met with the Dragon King and the others. I was planning to visit you tomorrow. Having nothing to do, I went for a walk alone tonight and suddenly sensed an eerie aura in this direction, so I came to investigate..."

Upon hearing Xiao mention the Dragon King's name, Qiqi was fairly certain of his identity.

She dispersed the sword incantation in her hand and said, "I see."

Fischl glanced at the two of them and asked in a low voice, "What's going on?"

Qiqi said to her, "We're on the same side."

Fischl quickly put down his bow as well: "Oh, oh."

Xiao glanced in the direction Noelle had gone and said, "That girl who was attacked must have suffered some kind of mental damage..."

"Mental erosion?"

"The Abyss Cult's seduction can trigger negative psychological states in people..."

"what?!"

"Don't worry, the mental damage she's suffered isn't severe. At most, she'll have a nightmare tonight, and she'll be back to normal in a couple of days."

Xiao has been exorcising demons for many years and is very familiar with this kind of problem. As an expert, he naturally wouldn't make a wrong judgment.

However, after thinking it over, Qiqi decided to go to Noelle's house and cast another [Dispel] spell on her.

--

Noelle returned home and, like a thief, ran to the bathroom to change out of her dirty, blood-stained clothes and soak them in the water before taking a bath.

She carefully examined herself in the mirror and found that her body really didn't have any injuries.

Recalling what had happened before, Noelle stared blankly at herself in the mirror for a while before sighing.

After taking a shower, she washed her clothes and hung them outside to dry.

This will ensure that family members will not find out that you were injured.

Noelle returned to her room, closed the door, and turned around to see Qiqi standing by the bed waiting for her.

"Miss Qiqi?"
