Chapter 518
【Collei】: She looks like a very interesting big sister!
【Alice】: (Paimon: Hmph-hmph)
【Kirara】: I hope there's a video episode with Miss Alice and Mr. Gu Chen. (Klee: Please)
【Alice】: G? (Scratches head)
【Sangonomiya Kokomi】: It seems a bit inappropriate?
【Alice】: Not really, it doesn't matter!
【Dvalin】: With the Sect Leader following, she shouldn't blow up the Stormterror's Lair anymore, right? Although she only blew up a few corridors, that's my home! (Pain)
【Venti】: (Funny)
It took a few days for Gu Chen to take Alice around Mondstadt.
It was clear that Alice's hands were itching; she really wanted to throw something that could explode.
But hindered by Gu Chen being right beside her, Alice could only sigh dejectedly.
【Klee】: I feel like Mommy's screen time is so little. (Sad)
【Kaeya】: Normal. First, it's the big events, then the protagonists. As for supporting characters... haven't you noticed? My screen time is also very little. (Shrugs)
【Lisa】: I've already been forgotten in the library~
【Amber】: I've been on screen, but I was just a very small child, flashed by and was gone. (Amber: Don't!)
【Venti】: As the Anemo Archon of Mondstadt, I've only been on screen for a few frames!
【Dvalin】: Until now, regarding me in the video, it was only when the Sect Leader felt the breathing above the clouds at the Stormterror's Lair! (Qiqi: Falls)
【Gu Chen】: Diaochan is still on the way.
【Seeing Zhongli】: What kind of meme is this again?
【Gu Chen】: (Stick figure Diaochan video 10s)
【Dvalin】: Alright, alright. (Qiqi: Falls)
Alice was preparing to leave.
During this time, Klee and Albedo had also become familiar with the city of Mondstadt.
On the main bridge of Mondstadt.
"Mommy~"
Little Klee was teary-eyed, hugging Alice's thigh, her eyes full of reluctance.
Alice reached out to pat Klee's head and said softly, "Little Klee, Mommy will come back when I have time. There are so many family members in the Knights who will take good care of you, don't worry~"
"Woo, Klee knows." Klee reluctantly let go of Alice.
"Alright, everyone, I'm off!"
Alice waved to say goodbye to everyone.
Little Klee, who was separated from her mother for the first time, cried for a while before being comforted by Jean.
Albedo said with a complex expression, "Grand Master, Vice Grand Master, you might have to worry in the future."
Both of them knew what Albedo was talking about.
Little Klee had completely inherited her mother's talent and part of her personality.
It was clear that there might be a lot of trouble in the future.
But Varka didn't care.
"It's up to you, rising star of the Knights." Varka patted Gu Chen on the shoulder.
Gu Chen glanced at him and said faintly, "I will handle it well."
Varka laughed, "I'm off. It's your coming-of-age ceremony soon, I'll go make arrangements."
The relationship between Varka and Gu Chen was quite complex.
Sometimes like master and apprentice, sometimes like good friends.
But Varka was the elder who raised Gu Chen, so of course he had to organize Gu Chen's coming-of-age ceremony, and it had to be grand!
A few days later.
Gu Chen officially appointed Albedo as the Chief Alchemist of the Knights of Favonius, concurrently serving as the captain of the investigation team.
These tasks were very simple for Albedo, requiring only 5% of his energy to handle.
Albedo looked at his work schedule and said, "The rest of the time can be used for research... Hmm, no, Klee might cause trouble, and I'll need to clean up after her."
Klee was naturally lively and loved making bombs to blow up fish.
Albedo could already imagine the days to come.
Vice Grand Master's office.
After taking a sip of tea, Gu Chen said, "There isn't much to do recently, you should learn to relax yourself."
Jean was stunned for a moment and said seriously, "I..."
"Silence."
Gu Chen held up a finger and said, "This is an order."
Upon hearing this, Jean felt a bit deflated. She had been prepared to say something, but once the order was given, she had to obey.
"Balancing work and rest is the truth. Lady Frederica hasn't seen you for a while, take some time to go back and see her," Gu Chen exhorted.
"Okay." Jean nodded.
Gu Chen signed a few documents and said, "Go have breakfast."
After having breakfast at the canteen and returning, Gu Chen saw a red figure at the entrance of the Knights, walking on tiptoe and looking around, looking like she was afraid of being discovered.
Last night, Klee made a lot of bombs, and she planned to go out of the city today to test her results.
She heard that the Vice Grand Master big brother was someone who didn't like trouble, so Klee felt it was better not to tell anyone, and just secretly test them and secretly come back.
Taking advantage of everyone going to eat early in the morning, Klee secretly prepared to slip away.
Just as she stepped out of the Knights, Klee felt her schoolbag being lifted, and her whole body was suspended in the air.
She turned her head in a panic and met Gu Chen's eyes.
"What do you want to do?" Gu Chen asked.
"I, I, I..."
Klee couldn't think of an excuse, so anxious she was about to cry.
Gu Chen put her on the ground and said, "You are still young, but you are also a member of the Knights. You need to report when you go out of the city. What if you get caught by bad guys?"
"G?"
Klee tilted her head in confusion. How did the Vice Grand Master big brother know she was going out of the city?
"All your little thoughts are written on your face." Gu Chen shook his head.
"Are they?"
Klee reached out to touch her small face, full of confusion.
Gu Chen didn't speak.
"Vice Grand Master..." Jean was hesitant to speak.
Klee was still a child, and she felt there was no need to be too harsh.
"Go eat some breakfast, and come find me later," Gu Chen exhorted.
"Woo, okay." Klee walked away dejectedly.
After she left, Jean said, "Playing is a child's nature."
"I didn't say she couldn't play."
Gu Chen shook his head and said seriously, "She is still young, and precisely because she is young, we must pay extra attention to her movements. Otherwise, if something happens, how can we explain it to Miss Alice?"
Jean thought about it and felt it made sense.
Returning to the office, after waiting for a while, the office door was knocked.
Little Klee pushed the door open dejectedly and stood in front of the desk like a child who had done something wrong.
Gu Chen was writing something, and soon handed a piece of paper to Klee, "Look carefully, this is the format for your outing application. In the future, write down the time you go out and the time you plan to return. You can go by yourself where the Knights are stationed, but in the wild, someone must go with you."
Klee looked up upon hearing this, opened her eyes wide, and said, "Can I go out?"
"Of course." Gu Chen nodded and said, "Write one for me now."
"Oh, oh!"
Klee was overjoyed, quickly took the paper and pen to copy it. The crooked handwriting was very consistent with Gu Chen's impression of a child.
After signing the outing application, Gu Chen stood up and said, "Let's go."
"Is big brother coming too?" Klee tilted her head.
