Chapter 6: My 6th Day of Slacking Off in Mondstadt
Life in Mondstadt was not as peaceful as I had imagined, but it was probably because I came at a bad time and the dragon plague caused by Tevarin had not been resolved yet.
There is no concept of time in the game, and it seems that it only took a short while to resolve the dragon plague, but in fact, it takes a lot of time just to appease the residents in the city, notify nearby merchants, and rescue adventurers trapped in the wild, and these things are almost all done by the Knights of Favonius.
A month or two has passed like this, and the Fatui are becoming more aggressive, trying to gain control of Mondstadt's defenses, or to pit the Knights of Favonius against the Dragon of the East Wind, and to sow discord between the residents of Mondstadt and the followers of the God of Wind.
But these have nothing to do with me, because I can't even speak the language clearly now. But fortunately, perhaps influenced by my fairy physique, my learning speed is amazingly fast. In less than a month, I can communicate with people normally.
"Mr. Water, Mr. Water!"
I was reading in the library when I heard Amber calling me outside the window.
Maybe they came to me for help again. It was probably because of a time when I helped others find items that fell into the Fruit Wine Lake, and the Knights of Favonius discovered that I could control water, but they were not curious because I did not have the Eye of God.
Because before this, there was already an honorary knight in Mondstadt who could control elemental forces without the Eye of God.
"Is something wrong?"
I don't know why, but even though I have a lot of things to say in my mind, every time they come to my lips, they become extremely concise and clear. I don't want to say a word of nonsense, so all the Knights of Favonius think that I am a very difficult person to approach.
But God knows, I am actually quite friendly and I love making friends, but it is probably the will that cannot OOC that controls me and prevents me from doing anything that goes against the character of Prince Water.
"It's like this. I told you before that there was a traveler in Mond who could also use elemental power without the Eye of God. Maybe he came from the same place as you."
"He just finished his mission with the Adventurer's Guild and returned to the city today. I want to take you to meet him."
Oh, it turns out the traveler is back.
I just don't know which one of the twins it is?
"where?"
Fortunately, Amber seemed to be accustomed to the way I spoke. She was very enthusiastic about taking me to find the traveler, and I didn't refuse.
Although I have been here for more than a month, I don't have the habit of going out for a stroll, and I still haven't mastered all the routes in Mond.
"He should be at Sarah's place now. Do you want to come with me to find him?"
Amber said.
"Let's go."
It is better to say what needs to be said. This way of speaking is indeed concise and saves energy.
The positioning of the Deer Hunter is different from that of the Angel's Gift and the Cat's Tail Tavern. Strictly speaking, it should be similar to the Wanmin Hall in Liyue, specializing in selling some daily food, but in terms of price, it seems to be more expensive than the Wanmin Hall.
Perhaps it’s because the residents of Mondstadt don’t care about it, and they just don’t want to cook for themselves at the Deer Hunter Restaurant.
The Traveler is easy to recognize. He or she is always followed by a flying white creature. That is miHoYo's official guide. The true origin of Paimon has never been explained in the game, but this does not prevent the people of Teyvat from accepting him well.
This continent is a place where a variety of flowers bloom, and it has always been very tolerant of foreign things. Of course, the premise is that you must act according to the rules of Teyvat, otherwise justice will be the first to come down and chop you down.
"null!"
When Amber took me to the Deerslayer Tavern, the traveler was having a meal. His long golden hair was braided and flowed behind him. His clothes were in an exotic style different from those of Mondstadt. Unlike his sister, Kong, as the older brother, was much bolder in his dress, which could be seen from the ornaments on his ears and the exposed waist.
"It's Amber! Hello, Amber."
Paimon flew over to greet Amber, but saw a strange figure standing next to him.
"Hey, who is this person?"
"Good afternoon, Amber."
Kong also stood up and greeted him. Amber was the first person he met in the continent of Teyvat, and she enthusiastically helped him and brought him into Mond, so he has always been grateful to Amber.
The first reaction of this enthusiastic girl when she saw him was not to attack him, but to find ways to help him and answered many of his questions, which reduced a lot of resistance for him when integrating into Mondstadt.
Unlike a certain shady bard who actually encouraged him to steal the Sky Harp.
"Hehe, I feel relieved to see you guys so energetic."
Amber greeted them and did not forget to introduce them.
"This is Shui Qingli, a foreigner who came to Mondstadt a while ago. He can control elemental forces without the Eye of God just like you, so I want you to meet him."
It would be even better if we knew each other.
But unfortunately, the traveler and I are not from the same world, at least he has never played Mihoyo's games.
"I thought that Sora was the only one who could use elemental power without the God's Eye. I didn't expect there's another person who can do it."
Paimon came closer curiously, opening her big round eyes, trying to get some information from me.
“I can only control the water.”
Unlike the travelers who can convert the corresponding elemental power by touching the statue, I represent the ultimate water element. But before I traveled to the continent of Teyvat, Fontainebleau, the country controlled by the water god, had not yet been opened. It is said that the water god is the biggest lackey of heaven?
"I can only control the wind."
Kong touched his head. He had not yet set out for Liyue, so he had not yet tried the second element.
"Hello, I'm Kong. You can always come to me if you need any help in the future."
He habitually stretched out his hand and introduced himself. Recently, he had been helping the Adventurer's Association deal with various commissions from residents, and he almost reflexively put himself on the side of helping others.
When I saw this scene, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, he is indeed worthy of being called the King of Volumes, as long as the resources are in place, there is nothing that the Traveler can't do.
During the time I've been in Mondstadt, I've heard a lot about his deeds. He was basically either helping people or on his way to help people. He was responding to requests from residents, missions from the Adventurer's Guild, and requests from the Knights of Favonius. He actually still had time to go digging for treasure chests in the wild?
Fortunately, I didn't cosplay Eula at the comic convention. Otherwise, if I had traveled to the continent of Teyvat with that set of equipment, who knows whether I would have turned into Eula herself or collided with the original character?
Well, because of my height, the adult girl of Teyvat is also a cosplay character that I often play.
"Shui Qingli, there is nothing I can do that requires help from others for now."
Actually, what I meant was that I don’t need any help, but it sounds like that’s not right?
