Chapter 272
"On the continent of Teyvat, besides the Abyss Order, the most powerful organization is the Fatui," Mu Yang explained to Lumine.
"But I really cannot accept some of the Fatui's actions!" Lumine said softly to Mu Yang.
"It's not asking you to work for the Fatui, just to borrow their power to deal with the Abyss Order," Mu Yang shrugged. "According to my plan, I want you to become an Honorary Knight of Mondstadt, a member of the Does Does Liyue the Does Does Liyue Does Does Liyue Qixing, a General of Inazuma, a Sage of Sumeru, and a Fatui Harbinger of Snezhnaya. I even recommended you to be the Second Seat."
"The Second Seat? Isn't that one of the top three in the Fatui?" Paimon was shocked. "And how could Lumine become an official in so many countries? And high-ranking ones at that?"
"Indeed, I also believe I can achieve this.
Although I don't know what a 'Sage' means, judging by the status of a General and the Does Does Liyue the Does Does Liyue Does Does Liyue Qixing, a Sage in Sumeru should have a very high status, right?" Lumine asked Mu Yang.
"Yes, they were the administrators of Sumeru, with a status similar to the Does Does Liyue the Does Does Liyue Does Does Liyue Qixing.
My relationship with the Dendro Archon, Lesser Lord Kusanali, is very good. I can recommend you to become a Sage; as long as you do some things for Sumeru, I think it can be achieved," Mu Yang said in a gentle tone.
It seemed that compared to Does Does Liyue, Mondstadt, and Inazuma, Sumeru was the one that needed Lumine's help the most.
Currently, the only "Sumeru people" in the chat group were Nahida and Greater Lord Rukkhadevata.
Nahida often complained that Sumeru didn't have many useful people, and there were quite a few things in the Sumeru desert that needed Lumine to busy herself with.
No one could refuse such a useful tool as Lumine.
"Do things for Sumeru?" Lumine looked at Mu Yang thoughtfully. If she didn't trust him, she would have suspected he was plotting against her.
However, in a country like Sumeru, she shouldn't have to work, right?
Even if she were asked to work, she assumed it would just be some odd jobs.
Similar to what she did in Does Does Liyue.
In fact, Lumine quite liked her days in Does Does Liyue; most of the tasks here were actually quite easy, and the Mora was plentiful.
Does Does Liyue was indeed the place where Teyvat's wealth converged; many task rewards were about twice as much as those in Mondstadt.
But could she really become a Sage just by doing some odd jobs for Sumeru?
Did Mu Yang have that much influence?
Could it be that the Dendro Archon of Sumeru had also been conquered by Mu Yang?
Mu Yang: No, I haven't, don't talk nonsense. I only conquered the previous Dendro Archon; as for the current one, I haven't made a move (feeling guilty).
"To tell you the truth, because of some things, Sumeru was plagued by internal and external troubles. Lesser Lord Kusanali was pitted against by Sumeru and locked up for five hundred years.
I rescued her before, and I also killed the Second and Sixth Seats of the Fatui.
Those guys caused quite a stir inside Sumeru," Mu Yang explained softly.
"Mu Yang, you killed the Second and Sixth Seats of the Fatui?" Paimon stared at Mu Yang, completely dumbfounded.
Lumine looked at Mu Yang, speechless.
Mu Yang had already killed two Fatui Harbingers, yet his relationship with Tartaglia and the others was still so good. How on earth did he manage that?
Or was the internal strife within Snezhnaya actually quite intense?
"Yes! I actually told you about this before, didn't I?" Mu Yang remembered that the last time he took Lumine out to eat, he had roughly mentioned these things.
How could Paimon have forgotten?
Could it be that this little one had forgotten because she was too immersed in the food?
"My relationship with Nahida is good. She has some tasks on hand that need to be completed. If you can complete them, the position of Sage will be yours," Mu Yang paused and continued:
"By the time you reach Sumeru, you will at least possess a third element, and your strength will also be improved, so there will be no problem in doing these tasks.
Of course, I also suggest that you make a trip to Inazuma before heading to Sumeru.
The Raiden Shogun of Inazuma has already prepared a trial for you!"
"A trial?" Lumine was completely bewildered.
The Raiden Shogun preparing a trial for her personally?
If she were in her prime, Lumine naturally wouldn't be afraid of the so-called Raiden Shogun.
Aether's strength was considered top-tier on the continent of Teyvat, so she, who had similar strength to Aether, shouldn't be too bad either.
"Yes, she is a warrior who understands the other person's heart through combat," Mu Yang said in a gentle tone. "Don't worry, it's impossible for her to use her full strength to fight you, but she will test you.
If you can pass her assessment, you won't just become a General of Inazuma.
You will also obtain a weapon that I crafted together with Raiden Ei.
That weapon will not be weaker than your Sword of Descension!"
"Sword of Descension?!" Lumine was excited upon hearing this.
She had great confidence in her own weapon, but she also believed Mu Yang's words. In other words, Mu Yang had really prepared a weapon suitable for her!
Thinking of her Dull Blade, Lumine felt her heart flutter. Wasn't it just a battle against the Raiden Shogun of Inazuma?
She would do it!
"Wait, Mu Yang, my brother seems to still be waiting for you..." At this moment, Kamisato Ayaka remembered the matter regarding Kamisato Ayato.
According to the intelligence she received, it seemed the Raiden Shogun had arranged for her brother to meet Mu Yang at Tenshukaku, but because Mu Yang wasn't there, he had been waiting at the entrance of Tenshukaku the whole time.
"He hasn't left?" Mu Yang was stunned. "According to my understanding, at Tenshukaku, if Kamisato Ayato hasn't seen me or Ei, he isn't qualified to sit down, right?"
Kamisato Ayaka's mouth twitched. "My brother should still be standing at the entrance of Tenshukaku, and he has been standing for four days..."
