Jean: "Lumine, don't talk nonsense."

Eula: "Lumine, I've noticed that you've changed since you got together with Su Bai."

Alice: "So, has the task of giving birth this time been handed to Jean?"

Yae Miko: "Can't you tell? The plot development is that Su Bai and Eula had a child, and then Su Bai, in order to become the Grand Master of the Knights, married into Jean's family. I remember the Gunnhildr family, to which the Acting Grand Master of Mondstadt belongs, has a high status in Mondstadt."

Tianquan Ningguang: "And Jean's father is the Archbishop of the Favonius Church, with extremely high power and status."

Jean: "Hey, why do you two sound like Fatui intelligence agents?"

Diluc: "Things that are known to everyone don't seem to require special intelligence gathering."

Eula: "Hehehe, so that's how it was in the previous life. Acting Grand Master Jean, draw your blade."

Jean: "Wait a minute, have you been led astray by Lumine?"

["Hey, you guys..."]

[Unable to stand the arrogant and wild laughter of the brats.]

[Su Bai charged out first.]

[He blocked Jean behind him.]

["A few of you bullying one girl, don't you feel ashamed?"]

["Truly a bunch of guys without chivalry."]

[Who is this guy...]

[Several children were instantly stunned by the aura on Su Bai.]

[But seeing the other party's frail appearance, plus the fact that they had strength in numbers.]

[Someone still gathered the courage to ask: "Who are you? Why are you meddling in other people's business?"]

["I am..."]

[The words reached his lips, and Su Bai remembered the previous commotion, so he immediately changed the subject.]

[Pointing at the other party, he said: "Hurry up and return the kite to her."]

[However, his uncooperative stomach betrayed him instantly.]

["Gurgle"]

[The sound from his stomach immediately suppressed Su Bai's aura.]

[After a moment of awkwardness, bursts of mockery erupted.]

["Pfft, you scared me just now."]

["Exactly, I thought some powerful guy had come from somewhere, but it turns out to be a beggar who can't even get enough to eat."]

["He really scared me to death, hmph..."]

["Meddling in other people's business, beat him up..."]

[The situation spiraled out of control.]

[Su Bai didn't back down. Seeing that several people were about to attack, he rolled up his sleeves, looking like he was ready to fight to the death.]

[However, just as both sides were about to fight, a clear shout stopped the chaos.]

[A red-haired, noble-looking boy was seen leaning against a tree with his arms crossed, saying coldly: "Stop."]

[As the voice sounded, several boys seemed to have heard some terrible sound.]

[They turned their heads tremblingly: "It... it's Diluc..."]

[Diluc stared at them, scaring them so much they didn't dare to move.]

["Why don't you hurry up and return the kite to her? Don't you know who she is?"]

["She is from the Gunnhildr family, and her father is the Archbishop of our Favonius Church."]

[What!]

[As soon as these words were spoken.]

[Several people were instantly stunned on the spot.]

[A few seconds later, they returned the kite to Jean while crying and begging, then ran away in terror.]

["You should leave here quickly too."]

[Diluc ignored the bewildered Su Bai.]

[He walked to his side and said: "I saw what happened to you on the street just now."]

["As a member of the Lawrence clan, it's best not to get involved with others, otherwise you will bring trouble to others."]

Chapter 105: Eula: Listen to me, there's absolutely no mistake, Su Bai Lawrence.

Will the citizens of Mondstadt be scared away by the name Gunnhildr?

After Vennessa overthrew the aristocracy and created the Knights, the status of the aristocracy plummeted in Mondstadt.

Ordinary citizens became the masters.

However, the Gunnhildr family, as a knightly family, was an exception.

From an administrative point of view.

The main administrative power of Mondstadt is still held by the Knights of Favonius.

The status of the church, which represents divine power, is not as high as the Knights of Favonius, which represents the status of knights.

Jean's father, the adventurer Seamus Pegg, who is famous across the continent, fell in love with her mother, Frederica Gunnhildr, after coming to Mondstadt.

After marriage, Jean's father, Seamus Pegg, gradually joined the Favonius Church.

He became the last Archbishop.

Although the two later divorced, Jean still relied on her personal efforts and the bloodline of the Gunnhildr family to hold an important role in the Knights of Favonius.

Her younger sister, Barbara, followed her father, Seamus Pegg, into the Favonius Church.

Although the aristocracy was overthrown, the status of the Gunnhildr family in Mondstadt is still not something that ordinary people can shake.

Livestream.

Kaeya: "Our Master Diluc has intruded. He scared away that group of children with just one sentence."

Enjou: "And he arrogantly told Master Su that his meddling would bring bad influence to others. He finally caught Master Su in his young body and showed off."

Diluc: "Please, I was also four or five years old. Who was sensible at that time?"

Navia: "I think you were very sensible. You brought up Grand Master Jean's family background as soon as you came up, scaring that group of brats into fleeing in panic."

Jean: "No, please don't say that. This kind of thing has nothing to do with the Gunnhildr family."

Kamisato Ayaka: "Then it was the Archbishop's title of her father that intimidated that group of children."

Barbara: "That's not it. Mondstadt is a free city-state. Everything we do is to serve the citizens. How could we use our family background to pressure the citizens of Mondstadt?"

Tianquan Ningguang: "Perhaps you don't have this thought in your heart, but in people's subconscious, they will always feel fear towards those with higher status than themselves."

Tianquan Ningguang: "In any place, it is impossible to truly eliminate class issues; it's just changed in other ways. After all, even animal groups have class levels, let alone us humans."

Sangonomiya Kokomi: "Sigh, where is there so-called true freedom?"

Venti: "....."

Paimon: "Mondstadt really has it. People there have to ask Jean to find their cats when they lose them, and Jean actually goes to find them."

Arataki Itto: "What does this have to do with freedom? I'm afraid the people of Mondstadt are lazy, leaving even the smallest things to the Knights?"

Jean: "Ahem, if you say that, I can't pretend not to see it."

Kuki Shinobu: "Help, Boss, say less."

Su Bai: "As expected of Grand Master Jean, her heart is full of chivalry."

Eula: "Hmph."

[Su Bai just stepped into the City of Mondstadt.]

[Just two things made him understand the terror of the Lawrences.]

[Not only will he be ostracized by the people of Mondstadt.]

[Even if he wants to help others, others will worry about being criticized for getting involved with the Lawrences.]

[At dusk.]

[Su Bai found a place where no one was around and sat down quietly.]

[Hungry, he felt that his life had just taken the first step, and it was about to end.]

["Looks like I can only leave Mondstadt and pick some fruits in the wild to satisfy my hunger."]

[Su Bai wrinkled his nose.]
