Chapter 42

She only needed to slash them to pieces.

There was no difficulty at all.

Both sides were deadlocked until the Knights of Favonius arrived from afar, and La Signora retreated with a gloomy face.

"Phew... what a troublesome guy."

Beidou looked at the altered terrain nearby and couldn't help but sigh.

Although her strength was good.

She really had no way to deal with this kind of mage.

Whenever she got close, the other party would always move to a safe range in advance.

"Are you alright? Friends from Liyue..."

Hearing the inquiry from the Knight Captain.

Beidou said coldly: "I really wonder if this is Mondstadt or Snezhnaya. Trading within your borders, and we can still encounter such a large-scale attack from them.

If it weren't for my strength being decent.

I would have been captured by the Fatui long ago.

It seems I have to consider whether to continue doing business with Mondstadt."

"This... it's all our fault, please forgive us."

The Knight Captain showed a sad expression.

He didn't want this either.

But with the inaction of his superiors, what could he do?

"Forget it, Hailong... let's pack up the goods and go."

"Yes, Big Sister."

Watching the Liyue caravan get busy, the knights also helped out, but their actions.

Did not bring any goodwill.

After all, for anyone.

Encountering such a thing, their mood wouldn't be beautiful.

Until they were back on the road.

Mona said to Beidou: "I didn't expect Mondstadt to have fallen to this point, that the Fatui would dare to attack us in broad daylight.

This is too terrifying..."

"Hmph... that's why I say, freedom doesn't always mean something good. If it weren't for Jean and the others holding things together, I'm afraid this place would have changed hands long ago..."

Having experienced this incident.

Beidou was even more convinced that Su Han's philosophy was correct.

Those who are not of our race must have different intentions.

This was something the other party had discussed with her while drunk.

As long as they are not people of Liyue, they naturally won't be of one mind with you.

Treat enemies as coldly as the winter.

Treat friends as warmly as the spring.

This is the way of life in Liyue!

When the news reached the Knights, Jean couldn't help but fly into a rage.

She directly took her troops to the Northland Bank.

Wanting to demand an explanation.

But the Fatui diplomat sneered: "Acting Grand Master Jean might not know the cause and effect here. It was Liyue that killed many of our people indiscriminately first.

We Fatui are just investigating some things.

And instead of worrying about the affairs between our two countries.

You might as well consider what you will do when the next dragon disaster arrives.

I have other things to do, so I won't keep you company..."

Saying this, the diplomat turned and left.

Without any regard for Jean's face.

Everyone looked at the Acting Grand Master.

Only to see her clenching her fists, her chest heaving, and finally turning into a long sigh.

"Let's go back first, this matter won't end here..."

"Yes."

Everyone showed disappointed expressions upon hearing this, turned around, and followed Jean away in a dejected manner.

And inside the Northland Bank.

Rosalyne instructed her subordinates: "Tell that guy Childe to focus on investigating Liyue. Beidou possesses power beyond elements; this is no small matter."

"Yes, Harbinger."

Watching her subordinates leave.

La Signora sat on the bench and fell into deep thought.

It wasn't the power of the Abyss, yet she could use her physical body to resist elemental power.

This is very abnormal.

Could it be something that man created again?

Unfortunately, she was busy with the Stormterror matter and was unable to intervene in Liyue.

Three hours later, Beidou and her party boarded the Crux fleet and returned to Liyue.

On the way.

Mona looked at Beidou and asked: "Just now, I seemed to see your arm turn black, and you could even touch those ice lances with your hand.

It doesn't seem to be elemental power, right?

Is it the power of another world?"

There is no black power among the seven elements.

And, having a knowledgeable teacher, Mona's knowledge base is very rich.

Beidou nodded and said: "It is indeed the power of another world. This power is called Haki. It is an ability that all living beings possess.

It's just that our world doesn't know how to develop it.

You can understand it as the power of life.

However, I am only a beginner.

If I could enter the second realm, I would surely be able to defeat that Fatui Harbinger."

Merely Armament Haki hardening.

Wanting to defeat La Signora is somewhat naive.

However, it provided the power to fight back.

"Power from another world? It seems I guessed right.

Truly amazing.

I heard from the old woman that every Fatui Harbinger possesses terrifying power, and even she finds it difficult to deal with them."

"Hmph... just you wait. In a few months, I will be able to surpass her..."

Beidou is a level two group member, and has an independent task every half month.

At worst, she can accumulate more points.

And later exchange them for treasures that enhance strength, and sooner or later she can surpass that Harbinger.

The next morning, they finally arrived in Liyue territory.

Beidou had Hailong and the others send the supplies to the Guili Plains, while she took Mona and returned to Liyue Harbor.

When they arrived at the Jade Chamber.

Su Han was sparring with Kaedehara Kazuha. ===== CHAPTER 123 =====

Seeing them return.

They stopped the fight.

"Yo... back so soon?"

"Yeah, and I even exchanged blows with a Fatui Harbinger. That guy is indeed not simple. If it weren't for Haki, and being dragged along by her using the caravan.

The one who would have failed would have been me."

Beidou shrugged.

And recounted the battle.

Su Han shook his head upon hearing this: "The other party didn't use her true strength, she was just fighting you with the power of her Delusion."

"Mm, what do you mean by that?"

Beidou was a bit unhappy.

Could it be that the other party was playing with her?

Su Han explained: "La Signora's real name is Rosalyne-Kruzchka Lohefalter, the Crimson Witch of Embers who studied in Sumeru.

You should understand just by hearing the name.

Her true power is not ice.

But fire..."

"What? A being who obtained the title of Witch! And, Rosalyne-Kruzchka Lohefalter... I remember...

I remember she was from Mondstadt."

Mona was shocked.

Wasn't Rosalyne that famous witch from a long time ago?

But she disappeared for hundreds of years for some reason.

Now she understood.

So the other party had joined the Fatui.

Beidou looked at Mona and asked: "Is the title of Witch very strong?"

"It's not just strong, it's the pinnacle of strength. The old woman's opponent, Alice, is a being who possesses the title of Witch..."

Those who can become a Witch.

Are all at the world's top level of strength.

After listening to Mona's explanation.

Beidou was a bit depressed: "Is the gap in our strength that big? She didn't even use fire-type power when fighting me, damn... I'm not convinced."

She originally thought she had fought a Fatui Harbinger to a draw.

And was quite happy in her heart.

Now that Su Han said this.

Beidou felt disgusted.

She hated it most when an opponent didn't use their full strength in battle.

Who are you looking down on?

Su Han looked at the furious Beidou and comforted her: "It's normal for her not to use the power of the Crimson Witch, because that power is a taboo.

It consumes her life."

"Mm? You're not lying to me, are you..."

"Why would I lie to you? Have you seen the Rose Witch of Mondstadt, Lisa?"

"I've seen her, isn't she that incredibly lazy woman! The one who only knows how to yawn all day, that's her, right..."

When she used to drink at the Cat's Tail Tavern.

She often met that woman.

So she had a very deep impression.

She seemed to be the librarian of Mondstadt.

Su Han nodded: "That's her... Lisa Minci, a genius witch seen once in two hundred years at the Sumeru Akademiya. With such high talent.

She chose to hide in Mondstadt.

Can you guess why?"

"Could it be..."

Being reminded by him.

Beidou finally understood.

The power of a Witch is a taboo.

Only those who obtain this power can be called a Witch.

For example, the ultimate of fire is the Crimson Witch.

And Lisa is the Rose Witch.

However, the power of a Witch comes with a powerful side effect, which is that it constantly plunders one's own life force.

In order to live better.

Therefore, Lisa chose to seal her power.

And comfortably be a librarian.

And the Crimson Witch is the same.

Ningguang uses a Delusion, but refuses to use the power of a Witch.

This is enough to prove the danger of a Witch's power; perhaps if something goes wrong, that Harbinger might lose control of her power and die.

"So, instead of having that time, you might as well think about.

How to cultivate the power of Haki...

As long as you enter the second stage, defeating a Fatui Harbinger will be easy."

"Mm, you say it lightly, the second stage isn't that easy."

Beidou rolled her eyes at this stinky guy.

He only knows how to talk big.
