Genshin Impact: I am the only one who can bring disaster to Teyvat
Chapter 166 Jean: This is the duty of a knight
"Father... Sakurasai?"
The fifteen-year-old knight was wearing simple light armor and a one-handed sword on her slender waist. She already had a bit of heroic spirit under her green and tender appearance. Her quiet and gentle eyes fell on her relatives during the inspection.
She called out softly, and then she looked at the attendant Yingsai, who had become more mature for some reason and had hidden his fox ears and tail. She frowned slightly and was a little puzzled: "How can you get along so well with your father?"
"He is not that brat from the God of Servant Yingzai. Kevin Kaslana is Walter's junior and is already a well-known adventurer in Fontaine. What's more, he is kind-hearted and logical. He also has white hair, but he is many times better than the God of Servant Yingzai." Simon snorted coldly:
"This Dina Zedai next to him is Kevin's good friend, the daughter of a Xumi merchant who has a partnership with Dawn Winery. She was invited this time as well. And this Dixia is a reliable mercenary and bodyguard."
Simon pulled Jyn over and introduced her, "Jyn Gunnhild, my oldest daughter, has a natural knightly talent, but she has a poor eye for foxes."
Isn't Walter Yingzai's brother in disguise? Isn't Dina Zedai Yingzai's brother's friend? ... She felt a little suspicious, but Qin knew that her father had his own ideas when he said that. Maybe someone wanted to return the favor.
Qin did not say anything to expose the truth. She had always been a person of no help to either her father or Sakurasai in the conflict. After all, it would not be nice to help anyone, so she could only let things develop naturally.
Qin smiled and said:
"Hello, Jean Gunhild, I'm a new knight who is still training in the Knights Templar. If you have any troubles, please leave them to me."
"Kevin Kaslana, an adventurer, currently wishes to become a great adventurer like Ms. Alice, but Mr. Simon said this wish is not a good one."
The white-haired young man politely pinched Qin's fingertips and shook them, then smiled shyly: "I don't know what's wrong with it, but I won't give up my dream of becoming a great adventurer!"
The white and tender skin felt some rough friction in the hand, which was the trace left by a healthy body and martial arts training. Dina Zedai smiled softly and said, "Dina Zedai, it's nice to meet you, Miss Qin."
"I am also very happy to meet you, Dina Zedai, and the reliable mercenary Miss Dishia."
"Am I included? Hahaha - you guys are really polite when introducing yourself. We in the desert are always straightforward, so we're not used to it."
Perhaps it was because she had pretended to be Kevin Kaslana to deal with Simon's first two examinations, and she had also provided the hair for the third examination. Dishia always felt guilty when standing next to Simon.
Perhaps it was out of a desire to make up for her guilt that Dixia enthusiastically shook the hand that Qin extended to her: "Dixia, a mercenary of the Blazing Beast Hunter Mercenary Group. I was fortunately chosen by the Humayi family when I was developing the rainforest market. Now I am Miss Dina Zedai's bodyguard."
"Hello." Even though her palms were hurt, Qin did not show any discomfort. The blonde knight still smiled gently and said:
"This is not luck. Miss Dixia's hands have many traces of training. Most people who can use two-handed swords are highly skilled in martial arts."
Dixia laughed heartily and said, "That's just because the lower limit of the two-handed sword is too low. Those with weak martial arts skills have long been buried in the endless yellow sand. What is this called... Yes, survivor bias! Under various survival of the fittest, the users of two-handed swords are naturally people with high martial arts skills."
Dixia, who was born in the desert, actually didn't know this truth, but along the way, the servant god Yingsai showed her a different kind of survivor bias, or to be more precise, a victim bias.
“That makes sense.”
After chatting with the extremely enthusiastic Dishia for a few more words, Qin looked at her father and said, "Father, shouldn't you be handling work at the West Wind Church at this time? There is also a celebration banquet for Senior Diluk tonight, and the schedule is quite tight."
Simon's eyes subconsciously wandered for a few moments, and suddenly he felt something was wrong, and his eyebrows and eyes instantly became resolute: "Didn't you see that blond bastard Otto Apocalis? Dealing with the guy who shook Lord Barbatos's faith is also within my job scope."
Since passing the assessment and joining the Western Knights, Qin's behavior has become more and more like Frey. Fortunately, she is still gentle amidst her severity, and is not as overly serious as her mother.
It's exactly the same as urging people to work.
"I hope that father will not mix personal grudges with his official duties."
Simon complained, "How could there not be? That bastard, whether it's his blond appearance or his inner truth, makes me want to draw my sword against him. Although there are ways to eliminate this urge, it's not up to me to decide."
Qin asked tentatively, "Then I will cut off my friendship with Yingzai brother from now on?"
"really?"
"I can only unilaterally sever our friendship." Qin said with a smile in her gray-purple eyes:
"But on the other hand, it's not up to me to decide whether to sever our friendship. Sakurasai-kun is very cunning. How could a fox refuse a delicious rabbit right in front of him?"
"It doesn't matter. As long as you have such determination, Qin, leave the rest to me." In order to allow the little girl who had begun to transform into a hard knight's armor to continue to stay in the Gunhild family, Simon patted his chest with a solemn vow.
He assured confidently: "As long as I am still here, I will never let the God of Servant Yingsai get close to you."
"Does that mean Dad doesn't need to work anymore? Doesn't Mom need to be with her anymore? That's not good. Besides, Barbara also needs her father's love and care."
"...As long as I am here, I will definitely arrive in time when the attendant god Yingsai approaches you."
Simon faintly heard the urging to work, and his voice faded:
"This time, I would like to ask you to take Kevin and the others on a tour of Mondstadt while you are on patrol. I do have a lot of work to arrange. When the time comes, let's gather at the square."
"Leave it to me, father."
Qin smiled and blinked.
It seems that the father actually didn't know that Kevin was the disguised form of the samurai Sakurasai, and the so-called "returning the favor in the same way" did not exist. It seemed that it was a successful deception.
But there is no other way, not helping either side is the best option, Qin can't lose the fair outlet to be exposed!
After all, there have been situations in the past where her father had a slight advantage, and she still remained fair and just.
"Isn't this a bit too much trouble for Miss Qin?" Kevin scratched the hair on the back of his head and smiled shyly.
"No problem. According to the Knights' Handbook of the Knights of Favonius, it is the duty of a knight to lead foreigners from afar to visit Mondstadt after work. The city-state of poetry and wine has a talent for tourism."
"Qin is right, don't think it's troublesome." Simon patted Kevin on the back and said with a complicated expression: "Besides, my family has a close relationship with your Mr. Walter, so don't talk about whether it's troublesome or not."
"Ah~ Then I'll leave it to Miss Qin."
"That's a knight's duty."
◇
"Is this also the duty of a knight?"
"It is also the duty of a knight to keep a close eye on dangerous elements."
Keeping a polite half-fist distance, Qin supported the hilt of the sword with one hand in response to Kevin's sudden question, and said with a smile: "This is to protect Mondstadt from being destroyed by dangerous elements. Does Mr. Kevin have any doubts?"
"I'm dangerous?"
"It's quite dangerous. Mr. Kevin may not know that every owner of the Eye of God is a target of special attention in the official organizations of every country, and those with strong strength can be included in the list of dangerous elements."
Qin explained with seemingly good intentions: "We in the Knights of Favonius have such a list, and Liyue also has such a list. It records many dangerous people who have or do not have the Eye of God."
"Some knights have very accurate intuition, and I happen to have a little bit of this talent. I think Mr. Kevin is such a person, like a cunning fox, so I need to pay more attention to you."
Kevin smiled and asked, "Hmm~ Your intuition is really sharp and frightening, Dina Zedai, do you think I'm dangerous?"
Dina Zedai said in a gentle voice: "Kevin is someone who makes me feel at ease no matter what. I don't seem to be able to sense any danger, but it may also be because you and I are close."
"..."
"I always feel that the atmosphere around me is so dangerous."
Dishia touched her arm.
