Chapter 12

Of course, later those lazy knights were reprimanded by Ye Ruo, and Jean also added a rule in the Knight Arts.

Prohibiting soldiers from ordering Noelle around.

But even so, Noelle is still working frantically, running around everywhere, an even more extreme person than Jean.

Doesn't know how to refuse.

This is also why she has never passed the knight assessment and has failed the knight selection seven times.

Because Jean thinks that if she becomes a knight like this, it is very dangerous and she will even be used by others.

It is Noelle's own mentality that is the key to not being able to become a formal knight.

As for strength, she has long had enough.

With a Vision and super strength, she is a very strong warrior in the Knight Arts.

Before, in order to have a weapon suitable for herself, Noelle made the blacksmith Wagner's mentality collapse, almost intending not to do it anymore and retiring to the mountains.

Just because he forged more than ten long swords for Noelle, all of which broke after a few swings because Noelle's strength was too great.

Later, it was blacksmith Wagner who spent a lot of effort to forge this greatsword, which barely allowed Noelle to use it.

Noelle's strength is indeed very good.

If it weren't for the mentality problem, a little honing would be more than enough to be a small captain.

After all, Noelle heard before that an adventurer had an accident in the snow mountain, and she ran over alone.

At that time, the environment was very harsh, and after Noelle brought the person back, she directly exhausted herself and had a high fever, falling into a coma for three days and three nights.

Making everyone in the Knight Arts very worried.

This kind of thing happened more than once.

Too enthusiastic, but lost coordination; if there were a few more people, it wouldn't be like this.

This is also why Jean has been finding some safety tasks in the city for her recently, and even entrusted her to herself this time.

So Ye Ruo changed the subject slightly.

"Noelle, how do you think I completed the city commissions in the Knight Arts before?"

This made Noelle reveal a look of worship.

"Of course it's very strong, strong to an outrageous degree! In your hands, those tasks piled up like mountains can be solved quickly, it's really too amazing."

"I also want to be a knight like you, so it must be that I didn't do enough, I should be more diligent and serious."

"Wrong!"

"Eh?"

Ye Ruo suddenly popped out such a sentence, which shocked Noelle.

"You blindly knowing how to complete everyone's tasks, striving for perfection, and constantly forcing yourself is the wrong direction."

"But, but aren't you also like this..."

Looking at Noelle, whose face suddenly showed a hurried look, Ye Ruo just smiled slightly.

"What I am good at is just waiting for things to pile up to a certain degree and then solving them in one breath."

"Instead of having problems here in the city and commissions there, working non-stop, that will never be finished, and you will only be dizzy and not know why."

"In that case, even if it were me, I would never be able to achieve perfection. Maybe things are still being produced in a steady stream, but I would collapse from exhaustion first."

Listening to such words from the senior that she had never thought of, Noelle was a bit shocked.

"But, the Grand Master told me before that if I stay in Mondstadt, he won't have any worries. The Grand Master values me so much, I should work harder."

"Ha?"

At this moment, Ye Ruo showed a strange expression.

"Noelle, you actually don't know? The Grand Master has said this to all of us knights who stayed in Mondstadt."

"Um, Kaeya is the same, and you can still see him always slacking off leisurely."

Noelle:.......

Really or fake, it turns out he didn't just say it to her alone?

But thinking about it, it seems so.

Wuwu, did she think too much?

And Ye Ruo's words rang out again.

"However, Kaeya's efficiency in completing things is still very high. I am the same; the efficiency of dozens of knights can't catch up with me alone."

"Integrating a series of affairs and finding the most time-saving and non-repetitive efficiency is much better than blindly working."

"This is why I got off work so early before, and the things I did were still ahead of those knights."

"Also, you pursue yourself too much and ignore that companions are not a good thing. The Favonius Knight Arts is a whole team, and some things should be divided among more knights."

"You alone cannot maintain a huge city and all the residents of Mondstadt."

"So, efficiency, work-life balance, knowing how to refuse and analyze the meaning of commissions, as well as team coordination are all things you need to learn during this time."

"I want you to put down the work in your hands and temporarily live the life of a normal Mondstadt person as my maid. Even in daily life, everything is practice."

"Finally, I hope you can succeed in becoming a real excellent knight in the future."

"Th, this is it?"

"As expected of the senior, the words spoken are so full of reason. I know, please let me help by your side during this time!"

Regarding these words of Ye Ruo, Noelle understood a little and was confused.

However, she also knew that since it was the words of this senior, it must be for her own good.

She is a loser who didn't pass the selection, while the senior is the Wind Knight who passed the assessment early and made such dazzling achievements in the Knight Arts.

His every word and action must have reason.

Must have deep meaning!

Worthy of her serious study!

So she smiled constrainedly, grabbed her hands a bit clumsily and cutely, and nodded seriously towards Ye Ruo.

Ye Ruo also said "um."

Of course.

What he thought in his heart was that a useful junior is in hand.
