Chapter 169

After a while.

Confirming that Eula would no longer feel pain and was just a bit weak.

Hearing Luo Li finally felt completely relieved.

"Resting for a few days should be fine, and it won't affect the journey to Liyue."

"Mm."

Thus, he carried Eula all the way to her manor residence; during the process, the young girl had tried her best to feel his warm body temperature for a while longer, but in the end, she couldn't overcome the exhaustion and weakness and fell into a deep sleep.

Returning to the main hall again, the girls who had enjoyed dinner had already dispersed, and only Raiden Makoto remained waiting there.

"Where are the others?"

"Mona went to the laboratory, Fischl went home, and Noelle is cleaning up."

Raiden Makoto informed him one by one.

"They left really quickly."

Muttering, Hearing Luo Li snuggled comfortably into the sofa and calculated the time.

In less than seven days, the Rite of Descension would probably begin.

Because the Geo Archon only officially descends once a year to issue decrees and various important matters for the entire coming year.

So such a grand festival naturally attracts extra attention; not only people from the country, but even people from the other six nations come here just to catch a glimpse of the god's face, which also gives them bragging rights.

Moreover, this time it was hosted by the Jade Chamber owner; everyone knows that among the Liyue Seven Stars, the Jade Chamber owner is supreme.

She was one of the biggest merchants in Liyue; back then she was just a small street vendor, but she stepped by step reached the pinnacle of human power.

The business knowledge and brains she possessed, as well as her far-sighted vision and judgment, were all sought after by people.

If one could build a relationship with the Jade Chamber owner during this period and get a little guidance, that would be a meteoric rise.

Raiden Makoto watched him in thought, leaned against him gently, and asked softly: "Is everything arranged here in Mondstadt?"

"Mm, it wasn't a problem to begin with; it's the same whether I leave or not. It's not like the Inazuma days anymore."

Makoto was slightly startled, then realized.

Indeed, neither of them was in a position where Mondstadt would stop functioning if they left.

The era of being the supreme rulers of Inazuma had long passed, and now the two were just "ordinary people" who had hidden their names.

Mm... perhaps there was a slight discrepancy.

"That's true; I was overthinking it."

Hearing Luo Li stood up with a smile and pulled Makoto up: "It's getting late, let's go to sleep."

…………

A few days later.

On a sea ship departing from Mondstadt toward Liyue.

Noelle looked at the constantly shifting blue sea and sky outside and asked with a hint of excitement: "What is Liyue like? I've never been there before."

Having been in Mondstadt since birth, the battle maid had only been active within the territory and had almost never been to other countries.

Now that she was going to travel to a foreign country, she was naturally a bit excited in her heart.

Eula, who had recovered, leaned on Hearing Hearing Luo Li left side, crossing her long legs intentionally or unintentionally.

"People who see Liyue for the first time are usually quite shocked; the buildings all have an antique flavor, and the clothes people wear there are also very beautiful, similar to Mr. Hearing Hearing Luo Li."

Having someone answer, Noelle quickly asked for advice on whether there were any matters that needed attention there.

If she were to make Hearing Luo Li lose face because of her, it would be a dereliction of duty for a maid, so she had to nip all possible factors in the bud.
