The journey to Teyvat from the Abyss Mage
Chapter 103: A Commission from Winter
Luo Mu saw the young master, and the young master naturally saw them, or rather, he was waiting for them here. Because when he walked towards Luo Mu and the others, there was no trace of surprise on his face. He walked briskly step by step, appearing to be extremely calm.
Young Master… Luo Mu tightened the staff in his hand. Ever since he saw Young Master, he had been extremely alert. This man, who was known as the most dangerous among the Fatui executives, a war-loving man who was proficient in all kinds of martial arts, just by standing there, Luo Mu could feel the invisible murderous aura.
Xingqiu and Ying, who had completed the elemental resonance, also noticed the young master walking straight towards them. Ying immediately slid in front of Luomu and Paimeng, and the surging elemental power was contained but not released, turning into an invisible barrier to protect Luomu and Paimeng.
Her intuition told her that the man in front of her was dangerous.
Compared to Ying, Xingqiu's reaction was much gentler. He smiled and greeted Gongzi. He asked enthusiastically, "I didn't expect to meet Mr. Gongzi, the executive officer of Zhidong Country, here. Is the North Country Bank busy today?"
As soon as they met, Xingqiu pointed out the identity of the young master to Ying and the others, and vaguely reminded them to be careful. It can be seen that Feiyun Chamber of Commerce does not trust this young master very much.
The young master had no complaints about this. He warmly hugged and greeted Xingqiu, who was half a head shorter than him.
"Why? Only you, Master Xingqiu, are allowed to travel the world, but I, an executive officer of the Fatui, can't come out to relax?" He answered with a smile.
Xingqiu smiled with the same sincerity. He led the young master to the tense Ying, and while signaling Ying not to be so nervous, he introduced the young master.
"Who is this……"
"I know, I know!" The young master interrupted Xingqiu half-answering and half-showing off, "This must be the famous traveler who defeated the Wind Dragon in Mondstadt. Even my not-so-likable colleague expressed his admiration for such a great feat."
Showing admiration? Her way of showing admiration was to collude with the Abyss and seize the Heart of the Wind God? Luo Mu, who was hiding behind Ying, rolled his eyes.
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Tartaglia." Seeing that Ying had no intention of relaxing, Gongzi sighed helplessly and took the initiative to introduce himself: "Xingqiu is right. I am the last of the Fatui executive officers, codenamed Gongzi, and I am a colleague of that perverted woman."
"You, you are the Fatui executor!" Paimon was horrified. Her small body moved back and forth in the air, as if she wanted to protect the traveler behind her, but she was a little afraid.
“Don’t be nervous!” The young master waved his hands repeatedly. He held his forehead with a headache. “Alas, it’s all because of those guys. They have ruined the image of our Fatui executive.”
Uh... I admit that you are more likable than the ladies, but I am sure that you are definitely not a good person! Luo Mu still hid behind Ying, acting as a mascot for viewing only.
"Mr. Young Master presided over the establishment of the Northern Bank in Liyue during the winter, and has cooperated with our Feiyun Chamber of Commerce several times. We are acquaintances. Ying, you don't need to be so nervous." Xingqiu also advised.
He didn't know much about the young master, and seeing Ying's reaction, he could guess that the Fatui's executive had done something bad to her. But he didn't want Ying and the young master to become enemies.
"It's okay, Ying, just take it." Luo Mu whispered in Ying's ear.
If Luo Mu now had sufficient evidence to prove that Young Master was about to take action that was detrimental to Liyue, and his side was fully confident of taking him down, he actually wouldn't mind taking action directly. But now, the motives of the Fatui were unclear, and Young Master, who possessed the Evil Eye and the Eye of God, was mysterious and unpredictable. Now was not a good time to take action.
Hearing Luo Mu's voice, Ying finally put away her aura. She reluctantly nodded to the young master as a greeting.
The young master seemed not to notice Ying's indifference towards him. Luomu, Paimeng, and Xingqiu seemed to have disappeared from his world in an instant. He was seen circling around Ying, saying with a pitiful look on his face: "Hey, Traveler, don't be so serious. We Fatui are not all perverts. Don't be misled by that lady!"
Luo Mu, who witnessed all this, had a dark face.
To be honest, maybe the lady is simply annoying, but when it comes to perversion, you seem to be even more so.
"Okay, okay, let's get down to business." Seeing that Ying was about to go crazy because of his behavior, the young master quickly stepped aside, cleared his throat solemnly, and said.
Good man, you still have something to do? If you didn't tell me you had something to do, I would have thought you were here to pick up my girl. Luo Mu was unhappy. For the first time, he felt that his body in the state of an Abyss Mage was too inconvenient. If he could not transform into a human form now, would he still let a toy salesman like you run wild?
Ying snorted softly, obviously not very fond of the young master's cynical behavior, but it was obvious that the young master's cute and stupid behavior did work, and Ying's hostility towards him was not as great as at the beginning.
"Tell me, what are you doing here?" Paimon asked, his hands on his hips.
The young master smiled awkwardly and rubbed his hands, and said a little embarrassedly: "Of course I am here specially to wait for you."
"Lie." Luo Mu said sullenly.
"Really!" The young master cried out in grievance, looking like he was wronged: "I really came here specially to wait for you! I have a commission to give you!"
"Wait, wait!" Paimon waved his hand and interrupted the young master's words: "Don't tell me how you knew we would come here. Did they ask you to find the Adventurer's Association? Why did you look for us?"
When the Adventurer's Association was mentioned, the young master felt even more aggrieved. He said dejectedly, "I looked for them, but they said that ordinary adventurers couldn't take on such a mission, so they asked me to look for Ying and her partner Paimon. They said you had lost contact with the association for a long time, so I had to find them myself..."
"Then, how did you know we were coming here?" Paimon asked.
"Make use of the advantages of the masses." The young master said, "What happened to you yesterday at the gate of Feiyun Chamber of Commerce is no secret, and I didn't deliberately hide it when I set out today. After my people heard about it, they immediately reported it to me. I rode as fast as I could to get here ahead of you to wait for you."
"It's so foggy today, I don't dare to meet you halfway, for fear of losing your way, so I have no choice but to wait for you at the end."
Oh, not covering up the itinerary was our biggest mistake. Luo Mu was getting annoyed with the mascot character he had created for himself, and he couldn't even complain about it freely.
However, despite the complaints, what the young master said is reasonable. Since there is nothing wrong with the reason why he appeared here, it seems not impossible to ask him what commission he has.
"What do you want to ask?" Ying obviously thought the same thing. She asked in a cold voice.
"Five days ago, a team of our Fatui followed a customs expert to explore the ruins of the Salt Demon Goddess Heulia in the Salt Underground. Before entering the ruins, the team had been in stable and normal contact with us, but the moment they stepped into the Salt Underground Ruins, the ten-member exploration team and the customs expert disappeared. I later sent out three more teams, and they all returned safely, but that team disappeared directly like dust blown away by the wind."
"I would like to ask you to go deep into the ruins of the Salt Demon Goddess Heulia and help me find out why those Fatui soldiers disappeared."
