Genshin Impact: Legend of the Emperor
Chapter 44: Wendy the Bard
After Amber went to the Knights to report on her mission, Ying and Paimon wandered the streets of Mondstadt and "coincidentally" met the bard Wendy who was singing the story of the East Wind Dragon on the side of the road.
Although they were very unhappy with Wendy, this bard wearing a green hat and secretly contacting the Wind Dragon was very suspicious at first glance, but under Lu Ming's guarantee, Ying and Paimeng decided to observe him carefully. Once they found evidence of the bard's guilt, they would take him to the Knights!
Wendy watched as the guests she had been waiting for finally took their seats and began to sing the story from five hundred years ago.
Wendy gently plucked the strings of the harp, and slowly spoke to the soothing and infectious music: "The story I want to tell begins in ancient times, when the gods still walked the earth..."
Paimon listened to the story Wendy sang and waved his fist excitedly.
Paimon flew to Ying's head and whispered into her ear.
"Ying, the story told by this bard coincides with Lisa and the others' inferences. Tevarin was indeed deceived."
Ying was thinking, would an ordinary bard know such a secret? The knowledgeable librarian Lisa also consulted various materials and saw the tears left by the wind dragon before she came to the conclusion.
How did Wendy know this?
The identity of this bard must be extraordinary.
After finishing the whole story, Wendy ran over to Ying and Paimon and greeted them: "Ah, you are..."
"Oh...ah! That was the one who scared Tevarin away at that time."
Paimon put his hands on his hips angrily and said, "Ahhh, you street singer, you actually pretended not to know us. We clearly met in the tavern."
Wendy pretended to be enlightened: "Oh! I remember now, it was you two who kidnapped my best friend and left me drinking alone in the pub."
Paimon complained with a guilty conscience: "You don't look like someone who would hate someone drinking. Don't drunkards care about anything as long as they have wine to drink?"
Wendy looked a little sad as if she had thought of something, but she soon cheered up and said with a smile on her face, "Drinking alone is to drown your sorrows, while drinking with friends is a happy party. How can they be the same?"
Ying put her hands on her hips and stared at Wendy with eyes wide open and a fierce look, but she was like a kitten baring its fangs and claws, not fierce at all. Instead, she looked cute in the eyes of passers-by.
Ying said viciously: "Don't try to change the subject."
Paimon imitated Ying and said in the same vicious tone: "Yes, don't try to change the subject."
Then Lu Ming appeared out of nowhere, stood beside Ying, and said to Wendy fiercely, "Wendy, tell the truth, don't try to change the subject."
Seeing Lu Ming winking at her to show his cooperation, Wendy was overjoyed and also winked in response. It seemed like there was more fun to watch.
Without even turning her head, Ying said to Paimeng: "Paimeng, are you a repeater?"
“Why do you have to repeat the same thing twice?”
Lu Ming imitated Paimeng's voice and answered, "Because important things should be said three times."
Paimon bowed his hands and said, "No, no. Ying, I didn't say that just now."
Ying and Paimeng turned around and found Lu Ming standing behind them without them noticing.
"Ah! Ah! Ah! It's the good man Lu Ming."
"Lu Ming, when did you come?"
Facing the two enthusiastic people, Lu Ming greeted them with a smile.
Wendy had slipped to Lu Ming's side without him noticing. She stood on tiptoe and put her arm on Lu Ming's shoulder, looking like a good brother.
Wendy asked Paimeng with a smile: "Why is Lu Ming a good man and I am just a singing prostitute?"
Paimon answered confidently: "Because Paimon hates drinking."
"Oh?" Wendy raised her lips and said, "But Lu Ming also likes to drink."
Paimeng was speechless: "This... that... Anyway, Lu Ming is different."
Wendy covered her face with her sleeves and pretended to cry.
"Woo, woo, woo, little Paimon is so partial."
Lu Ming looked at the flustered Paimeng and gave a slap to the pretentious Wendy.
Seeing that she was exposed, Wendy stuck out her tongue, trying to get away with it.
"Hey."
Paimeng stomped her feet in anger. She actually felt guilty just now. And what did "Aiya" mean?
Paimeng looked at the handful of candies that Lu Ming handed over and happily put them in his pocket. After thinking for a while, he took out two more candies, put one in his mouth, and handed the other to Ying.
While eating the sweet candy, Paimon put his previous troubles behind him.
Paimon asked curiously, "Lu Ming, didn't Lisa ask you to make a device that can track the Wind Demon Dragon? Have you already done it?"
Lu Ming nodded and said, "The device is very simple and can be made in a few minutes."
"I came here to have a drink with Wendy, but I didn't expect to run into you guys."
Wendy thought about the fine wine in the tavern, and also about Tevarin crying in the torture of the abyss, and said with difficulty: "Brother Lu Ming, wine... can be drunk at any time."
"I heard you say just now, Ying, that by creating a tool that can track the Wind Dragon, the Knights are not going to kill the Wind Dragon, are they?"
Looking at Wendy's worried face, Paimon blinked, crunched the candy in his mouth, and said:
"Singer, didn't you just tell me that the Wind Dragon is Tevarin, the Guardian of the Four Winds of Mondstadt? Why do you still think that the Knights would harm this poor dragon?"
"Of course it's because the Knights have mastered the method to save Tevarin. Let me tell you, Ying can purify Tevarin's tears."
Wendy was shocked. He had felt that unique aura on Ying before, which could actually purify the erosion of the abyss! Great, Tevarin was saved.
As the god of wind, Wendy's power can also purify the abyss pollution on Tevarin, but due to wear and tear and not wearing the crown of the god of wind for a long time, Wendy's power is not much left.
However, the power of the abyss is too polluting. When treating Tevarin, Wendy has to conserve his strength to prevent himself from being eroded. If the god of wind is eroded, Mond will be really finished.
This is also the reason why Wendy has always been timid.
But now with Ying, who can purify the power of the abyss, Wendy can let go.
Faced with the opportunity to save her old friend, Wendy didn't care about drinking with Lu Ming anymore. She dragged Lu Ming and Ying to the Knights.
Ying wanted to resist, but when she saw Lu Ming following Wendy obediently, she followed him anyway.
Since Ying and Lu Ming had left, Paimeng naturally followed them.
As the nun Rosalia who was responsible for protecting Lu Ming, she naturally followed.
Next was Diluk. After receiving news from his subordinates that the green bard that Diluk had been keeping an eye on had appeared on the street, Diluk immediately rushed over and watched the entire thing.
Seeing a group of people walking towards the Knights, Diluk followed them, feeling that this was a critical moment to resolve the Mondstadt dragon plague.
At this time, Kaeya had just solved the Wind Dragon Power Node in the last temple, the Lion Hall, and rushed back to the Knights to report on the mission.
The knight on duty at the office door watched the people entering the captain's office one by one, and just raised his hand to stop them, but immediately put it down.
Everyone who goes in here is someone he can't afford to offend, and they all have legitimate reasons.
It’s just that there are too many of them, they can all play a game of Werewolf!!!
Captain Qin sat on a stool in the office, looking at the large group of people in front of him, his head buzzing.
What's happening here?
Is the party going to be held in the Knights' leader's office? She hasn't received the news either?
Lisa looked at the people in the Knights, then looked at Wendy standing next to Lu Ming, and seemed to be thinking about something.
The current leader's office contains: "Leader of the Knights Jean, librarian Lisa, cavalry captain Kaeya, scout knight Amber, bard Wendy, honorary knight Ying, executioner nun Rosaria, owner of Dawn Winery Diluke, Knights Research Department Director Lu Ming, and mascot Paimon."
If Klee's bouncing bomb exploded here at this time, the entire Mondstadt would collapse.
Ask, among these people, how many have hidden identities?
