Chapter 8: My 8th Day of Slacking Off in Mondstadt
This was the first time that Sora had such strong negative emotions towards someone.
Everyone in Mondstadt knows that the Knight of Honor is a kind-hearted man who is willing to help anyone in need. Even though he possesses great power, he is never arrogant, which is inversely proportional to the increasingly decadent yet still high-handed Laois family.
In fact, Kong just thought that there was no need to get angry over trivial matters. He sometimes did encounter clients with unpleasant personalities, but they were not bad people, they were just unpleasant and had not done anything bad.
But it’s different for ladies.
Before this sneering woman appeared, his impression of the Fatui was still based on the introductions given by Kaeya and Captain Jean. He only knew that they were extremely arrogant and domineering in diplomacy, and had ulterior motives.
And when the cold-faced Tenth Executioner committed atrocities against his friend in front of him, he truly realized the true face of the Fatui.
All their actions against Mond were premeditated, and their ultimate goal was Wendy.
Kong stared at the lady who attacked Wendy with bloodshot eyes, but he had just woken up from a deep sleep not long ago. Even though he resonated with the wind element, his strength had only recovered a little. He relied on the help of Wendy and the Knights of Favonius to defeat Tevarin. Now he could only watch Wendy being bullied.
"Humph!"
After a few words of bickering, the lady decided to end the battle quickly. Even though Barbatos' power had been suppressed by the Ice Queen, he was still the God of Wind. If they didn't act quickly, and he broke free, the Fatui's efforts of so many days would have been wasted.
But before she was about to take out Wendy's Heart of God, a wall of water appeared out of nowhere, blocking the woman's way.
Rosalie frowned and sneered.
"I thought the Knights of Favonius had been lured away, but I didn't expect there were still some who slipped through the net. However... the owner of the Water God's Eye dared to challenge the Ice God. I have to praise your courage."
Among the seven elemental reactions, the ice element restrains the water element. The power of the frozen water element can be easily used by the owner of the Ice God's Eye. Therefore, very few owners of the Water God's Eye will actively challenge the Ice element.
"Stop hiding and come out! I don't have time to play hide and seek with you."
Rosalie shouted sternly, and swung out the silver whip woven from steel and silver in her hand, directly condensing the water wall that blocked her steps into an ice wall, which shattered in the next instant.
She had originally planned to humiliate Barbatos and avenge her lost lover, but now someone unexpected has appeared, and she must prioritize getting the Heart of God.
While making a sound to attract the Water God's Eye hiding in the dark, she had already approached Wendy and took direct action to dig out her heart. Strangely, the man did not attack again this time.
Wendy also noticed something, and when Rosaline approached him, he did not resist, but calmly accepted that his Heart of God was taken away - this was what he was prepared to do.
After getting the glowing Heart of God that looked like a chess piece, the lady secretly breathed a sigh of relief. This operation was extremely important and she would not allow even the slightest possibility of failure.
"It looks like you've got what you wanted."
A cold voice appeared out of nowhere, and the two Fatui vanguards who were suppressing Kong were suddenly entangled and bound by two streams of water. Kong immediately took the opportunity to break free from them and ran towards Wendy.
Rosalin immediately raised the silver whip in her hand, stared at the direction of the sound, and assumed an attacking posture.
However, her right foot quietly moved a step back. She had already obtained the Heart of God, but the Knights of Favonius could come at any time. There was no need for her to fight with them here. She could just evacuate when necessary.
"Wendy, are you okay?!"
Kong anxiously picked up the young man lying on the ground. The bard covered his chest with his hands, looking extremely painful, unable to utter a word. The blond traveler hated the lady even more after seeing this.
"Stop playing tricks! Get out of here!"
Rosalie shouted again, the restraint of elemental power was not everything. If the opponent's ability was strange, she might not be able to solve it in time, but she must prevent sneak attacks from behind.
"I'm just a foreign guest, you don't have to react so strongly."
A water-blue figure appeared from the air, as if it had condensed out of thin air, but the sharp-eyed Kong saw that he came out from the water flow.
"Now that you have obtained what you wanted, could you please leave as soon as possible? You have caused too much trouble in this city, and it is also a trouble for me."
The elf who appeared out of nowhere had a look of boredom on his face and an extremely cold attitude. His words even implied that he was trying to drive people away openly.
Ever since she became the executive officer of the Fatui, the lady has been respected by everyone wherever she goes. She was ignored to such an extent that her anger suddenly flared up, and she wanted to catch the arrogant boy opposite her immediately.
But she couldn't do that.
The possessors of the Eye of God have keen senses, and she has heard the footsteps of the Knights of Favonius nearby.
"Hehe, I'll let you go this time."
She put away the whip. The aqua blue guy opposite her had no intention of attacking again, and she was not going to waste any more time.
But next time she goes to Mond, she will definitely get revenge!
"let's go!"
The lady walked out of the city without looking back, and the soldiers behind her immediately followed her, leaving only one or two advance soldiers with guns in hand to guard the rear.
I watched them walk out of Mondstadt before I had time to glance back at Lord Barbatos, the God of Wind who was addicted to acting. Losing the Heart of God was nothing to him. The Heart of God was just a tool to communicate with Sky Island. This guy was pretending very well.
"Wendy? Wendy!"
The traveler was still calling his name, and it seemed that he really thought that the lying bard was seriously injured. I didn't even have the heart to remind him.
"Maybe……"
I spoke slowly. Of course I could hear what the lady heard. If all the Knights of Favonius came, it might be difficult for us to escape.
"You need to take him somewhere to rest. Maybe he'll feel better."
It’s best to go to Angel’s Gift and order him a glass of dandelion wine or apple cider. I guarantee that he will be full of energy and healthier than you.
After all, Kong was hit several times, and one of them even hit him on the head, causing him to become unconscious. It is impossible that he is completely free of problems.
"Yes, Kong. Let's find a place to put the singer first. We can't let him lie like this all the time."
The white flying object, the best guide on the continent of Teyvat also advised.
As she continued this sentence, I saw a green object lying down move its arms, and a smile flashed across my eyes.
You deserve it for being addicted to pretending.

I feel like the first person seems a bit awkward, should I change it to the third person? What do you guys think?
