Chapter 51 What is Like, What is Love
In the woods, Paimon flew high up to see if there were any delicious little animals around.
This is an unknown grove on the border of the snow-capped mountains. There are many villages around it, and there should be no wild animals that are too dangerous.
But we can't take it lightly.
Sora followed Paimon with the sword in hand, while observing the movements around him.
As Paimon was flying, he found that the sun was gradually setting. There seemed to be something wrong with the clouds today, blocking most of the light. The woods were so dark that Paimon almost wondered if he had suddenly gone blind, so he flew back.
"…Traveler, what's going on between you and Xiaofeng?" She felt bored, so she found a topic to talk about, "Why do I always feel like there's something weird going on between you two?"
Sora pursed his lips and said nothing.
"You two really have a secret from me." Paimon crossed his arms and said unhappily, "Okay, okay, it seems that I, the best guide in Teyvat, have been left out."
"When I think about my best friend being snatched away by a wind slime, I feel sick all over and I wish I could eat that slime!" Paimon added viciously, while secretly glancing at Sora who seemed a little dazed after hearing what he said.
Eat...the slime...?
Kong was stunned. For some reason, a Q version of him biting Samuel in slime form suddenly appeared in his mind.
He shook his head in confusion.
"You're still not telling me?" Paimon saw him shaking his head and angrily hugged his chest, "If you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me. It's definitely not a good thing. I don't want to know!"
After saying that, she snorted angrily, and flew away angrily.
Sora sighed.
Paimon must know that Samuel likes him.
But Paimon probably doesn't know what kind of "like" it is.
I probably wouldn't return the same "like" to Samuel. If I tell others about it, it will only make Samuel embarrassed.
So...if you can avoid talking about it, then don't talk about it.
I don’t know why that slime likes me so much.
Speaking of which, when he first saw the slime at the door of the tavern in Viladu Village, he felt that it looked familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before.
Maybe... I have seen it before?
But he had seen so many wind slimes, in all sizes, how could he possibly remember them all.
Wait, size...
"——Traveler! Help!!!"
Paimon's dolphin sound came from not far away, echoing in the woods and startling a flock of birds.
Sora put his thoughts away, quickly picked up his sword and rushed over to help.
Eagerly running to the source of the sound, Sora saw the creature that had scared Paimon half to death, with his hands on his hips.
A medium-sized wild boar, about the size of two or three Paimons.
Its fangs were fixed on the tree stump, right under Paimon. It was gasping for breath and twisting its body to try to pull the fangs out.
It was estimated that when Paimon shouted, it was rushing towards Paimon, but Paimon flew too high and it couldn't brake, so it was pinned under the tree stump.
Paimon leaned against the tree trunk with his eyes closed, and kept yelling with a look of fear on his face, without even opening his eyes to look.
"Don't come over here, don't come over here, Traveler, please save me--!!!"
She was still yelling.
Kong had no choice but to walk over, gather the wind elemental power into the sword, and chop the wild boar with one sword.
The wild boar let out a heart-wrenching howl and then fell down.
Paimon then opened his eyes.
"Wow, Traveler, you're the best! Thank you for saving me!" Paimon cried and hugged Sora.
Looking at Paimon who was hugging him and crying, Kong suddenly had an epiphany and stood there in a daze.
Have I saved Samuel somewhere?
……
Wendy looked at the sun setting over the distant hills and stood up gently.
"Okay little slime, I have to go." He picked up Samuel in his arms and put him on the grass.
Samuel stared at Wendy with his big blue eyes, looking at her dusting herself off and said reluctantly:
"Lord Barbatos is leaving now?"
Wendy nodded, leaned over and patted his head with a smile:
"I have an appointment for a performance in Taiwan at the Qingquan Town Tavern tonight. They even paid me the performance fee in advance. I can't go back on my word."
Samuel nodded and waved goodbye to his god.
Then, under his gaze, Wendy transformed into brilliant wind elemental force and left in an instant.
A certain little slime raised the corner of his mouth in a good mood.
Lord Barbatos is truly a gentle god.
He was happy, and soon turned his gaze to the woods shrouded in darkness.
...When will Sora come back?
……
Wendy's figure appeared in a hidden alley in Qingquan Town.
Just as Samuel thought, Qingquan Town was indeed much larger than in the game, and its scale was far beyond the description of the word "town".
This "small town" is located beside the largest inland lake in Mondstadt, Lake Wine Lake. Tens of thousands of people live here. Together with Mondstadt and Jingfu Port, it is known as one of the "Three City-States" of Mondstadt.
Wendy walked out of the alley. On the road paved with whole-cut stone bricks, there were lightning element lamps hanging, dispelling the darkness and danger.
The young man in green tidied his clothes and followed the crowd coming and going at night, slowly walking towards "Angel's Gift - Qingquan Town Dongfeng District Store".
Well...according to Samuel, there are four "Angel's Gift" chain stores in Qingquan Town, located in the four districts of East, West, South and North.
In fact, Mondstadt and Jingfu Port are also divided into four wind zones: east, west, south, north and west wind. Generally, the west wind is the first, followed by the east wind, the north wind is next, and the south wind is the last.
Suddenly, Wendy turned a corner, and a drunk who was following him quietly on the street and was about to rob him was caught empty-handed.
Wendy shook her head, continued walking along the avenue, and entered the door of the tavern.
The waiter in the tavern came over immediately after seeing him.
"I'm sorry, dear friend, Angel's Gift does not sell alcohol to minors for the time being." The waiter said politely.
The taverns in the Three Cities are troublesome… Wendy muttered to herself.
I guess even if you bring Samuel in slime form into the tavern, you'll be told "Pets and slimes are not allowed".
He immediately put on a smile and took out his ID: "I am the bard who will be performing at the tavern tonight. May I ask where I will be performing tonight?"
The waiter took the certificate, looked at it, nodded to him, and walked towards the venue where he would perform tonight - a small round stage in the corner.
Wendy nodded to show that she understood.
After the waiter left, he glanced at the counter over there and walked over slowly.
"A glass of dandelion wine, please. Stop it. Don't say anything about not selling alcohol to minors. Since I'm here, I've already proved to the waiter at the door that I'm an adult—"
The man behind the counter glanced up at him.
Wendy was stunned.
“Master Diluk…?”
"I'm sorry, Mr. Bard, Angel's Gift does not sell alcohol to minors for the time being." Diluk put down the account book in his hand and said in a flat tone.
Wendy: "..."
Diluk thought that Wendy would make excuses and find all kinds of reasons to convince him, just like he had done the previous times when he bumped into her when he came to the tavern to check the account books, but he found that there was no sound from the other side of the counter.
He looked over in confusion and saw that the Lord Wind God had drooped eyelids and was looking at the ground, as if thinking about something.
This frivolous Lord Wind God will also have a day when he is worried?
He hesitated for a moment, then poured a glass of dandelion wine and placed it on the counter.
"This time is an exception. Consider it my treat." Diluk said calmly.
Wendy raised her eyes, and under Diluk's gaze, she took the wine glass and took a sip.
Diluc: "..."
Why do I feel like I've been fooled?
Wendy wiped her mouth and suddenly asked a question that Diluk found a bit puzzling:
"Master Diluk, you said...
"What is like and what is love?"
