Chapter 145: Reunited after five hundred years! Dainsleif!

~5 min read 994 words

As the saying goes, if there is no woman in one's heart, drawing the blade is naturally divine.

It is a pity that the Witch of the Gun did not understand this principle; having developed attachments, she was almost finished off by her own disciple, Eberhart.

Had Hearing Luo Li not lent a hand, it would likely have been another tragedy.

As a reward, before she wandered the ends of the earth with Parsifal, she gifted him her own techniques and weapons.

And Rosaria is the lucky one who received this bounty.

It is mainly because the sultry nun is too much to Hearing Hearing Luo Li taste; otherwise, he would not be good to a stranger for no reason.

It is the same principle as his staying in Inazuma with ulterior motives several hundred years ago.

"Teacher, how do you have time to come to the tavern today?" sipping dandelion wine, Rosaria asked deliberately.

"You saw it quite clearly just now, didn't you."

"Oh, what is the background of that strange bard?"

"No need to pay attention to him; if one were to really discuss it, he is the only one who would not have any malice toward Mondstadt."

Gazing earnestly into Hearing Hearing Luo Li eyes, Rosaria said noncommittally: "Since Teacher says so, I will make an exception and let him go."

After drinking a few cups with this disciple who often hid in the shadows, Hearing Luo Li intended to leave.

But just as this thought arose, seeing a certain person made him stop.

His gaze condensed toward the corner; Hearing Luo Li, having stepped out of the shadows, lost the obstruction of obstacles, and only then did he see clearly who was opposite Lumine and Paimon.

A pitch-black cloak with a starry sky pattern, golden short hair, and an eyepatch covering the right eye.

"Interesting, I almost forgot, there is still this acquaintance here."

Revealing a faint smile, Hearing Luo Li turned his steps and walked toward the direction where Lumine was, with Noelle following closely behind.

In the corner of the tavern!

"Hey, we answered all three of your questions, and we gave you the Mora, don't you dare go back on your word!"

Paimon stood with her hands on her hips, staring at the man in front of her with a suspicious look.

Anyone who wants to swindle money from her is a bad person.

The blond man gave a light hum and said coldly: "At this time three days from now, find me outside the city."

Lumine silently noted the time and place he mentioned; she always felt that the man in front of her was particularly familiar, as if she had seen him somewhere before.

"Lumine, Paimon, I didn't expect you to be here."

Just as the blond man wanted to get up and leave, the voice that suddenly came from behind made his face change drastically.

This tone—he had the good fortune to hear it once five hundred years ago.

He turned his head abruptly, and Hearing Hearing Luo Li figure was reflected in his pupils.

"Long time no see, Dainsleif."

Looking at the blond man whose expression changed extremely obviously, Hearing Luo Li wore a faint smile.

Compared to his composure, Dains was in an entirely different state.

Paimon looked at this scene in surprise and realized suddenly.

"So you know each other; I thought he was a swindler."

Hearing Luo Li came to Lumine's side and sat down, saying casually: "A swindler is not quite the word; he is just a poor man struggling against the Abyss."

Dainsleif's gaze flickered; he never expected to run into one of the two Highnesses who ruled Inazuma five hundred years ago here.

But soon, taking a deep breath, he stabilized his emotions.

Five hundred years were not spent in vain; even if shocked, he could forcibly suppress it.

Looking Dains over with interest, Hearing Luo Li was very curious about what exactly he had obtained to be able to resist the curse from the Heavenly Principles, not falling into the same fate as the Hilichurls and Black Serpent Knights, but merely suffering partial erosion.

"I never thought I would be able to meet Your Highness Hearing Luo Li again."

Lumine and Paimon were surprised to find that the cold riddle-maker from just a moment ago was now exchanging pleasantries in a solemn and rather respectful tone.

"Hearing Luo Li... Your Highness?" Paimon leaned into Lumine's ear and whispered: "It seems this person's identity is even more mysterious than imagined."

She knew it; how could someone who was familiar with the Wind Archon Barbatos be merely a high-level advisor to the Knights of Favonius?

At the very least, only those capable of ruling a country could be called Your Highness.

Hearing Luo Li waved his hand and said indifferently: "I just saw an old acquaintance and came over to say hello; there is no need to make a big fuss, and my current status is also different from the past."

Seeing that he seemed to have no intention of settling accounts with the remnants of Khaenri'ah, Dains breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, when the Seven Archons destroyed Khaenri'ah in the past, this Highness was also among them, even though he did not cause any casualties to the populace.

If he were to make things difficult for him at this moment, Dains felt that there was absolutely no room for resistance.

"I ask Your Highness to clarify."

Even so, he was not particularly at ease, lowering his posture to ask for clarification.

"The disturbances of the past have nothing to do with me anymore; whatever you want to do, as long as you don't provoke me, I won't care."

To put him at ease, Hearing Luo Li had to make it completely clear: "Whether you want Lumine to walk the path of opposition to that person or otherwise, it has nothing to do with me, understand?"
