"That's Klee, the Spark Knight of our Knight Order. She was locked up by Jean because... well, she tried to replace the Harpastum balls at the Ludi Harpastum Festival with bouncing bombs."
When Kaeya was explaining to Bai Luo, cold sweat actually broke out on his forehead.
It's not related to Klee, it's just because of Bai Luo's thods.
The Fatui's Harbinger had already walked to the vicinity of the confinent room, but so many people from the Favonius Knights didn't notice him.
Porthos and Athos, who are in charge of guarding the gate, are both observant people and would never let anyone suspicious in easily.
According to Klee, who bumped into Bai Luo, she didn't even realize that she bumped into two living people, she just thought she bumped into the devil in Kaeya's story.
Then think of the threatening words Bai Luo had said before.
It seed that they still underestimated this fatui harbinger from Snezhnaya.
"The way you Mondstadt people educate your children... is really unique."
Looking at the confinent room which had fallen silent, Bai Luo couldn't help but complain.
Little did he know that the way Collei looked at him had also changed.
How dare you complain about others? If I hadn't learned a set of fighting skills from a mysterious man since I was a child, I would have been beaten to death by slis and Hilichurls.
"Suru's guests are in the library. I will take you there."
Kaeya smiled and didn't explain much.
One day was not enough to eliminate all the chanical Birds 2.0, so so monsters in the wild still caused unrest.
Fortunately, the chanical birds in Mondstadt had been cleared away, and Jean and her n stopped them in ti, so no serious consequences were caused.
However, Jean and the knights she brought with her could not return for the ti being, so he, the general affairs officer, had to take over the duties of the Knights Headquarters temporarily.
The current Knights Order was so fragile that it couldn't withstand any blow, so he took the initiative to offer to take Bai Luo with him to avoid any accidents.
As for whether he could stop Bai Luo when he attacked...at least he tried his best.
The library occupies a large area in the Knights Headquarters, even larger than the hall outside.
In addition to the large chandelier hanging in the center, there are also small wall lamps above the rows of bookshelves.
However, these wall lamps were not powered by candles, but rather so of Fontaine's technology. Although they were quite expensive, the Knights still purchased a large number of them, considering that books were even more valuable.
As the library of the Knights Headquarters, it has a special status. It is no exaggeration to say that it is the largest library in Mondstadt.
Not only are there various obscure ancient books here, but there are also martial arts novels from Liyue and Inazuma's light novels.
There are even books like "A Study of the Customs of the Hilichurl People".
After Kaeya brought the person here, he left.
There are a lot of things to do during the Ludi Harpastum Festival. If Bai Luo wasn't special, he wouldn't co to lead the way in person.
Compared to Bai Luo's behavior of pushing the door open directly, Collei was much more polite.
At least she knew to knock on the door before coming in.
That's true. Bai Luo has had very few opportunities to go through doors over the years. He either climbed onto the balcony or climbed through the window. There was no door for him to knock on.
We also know that doors need to be pushed open, which is human instinct.
"Did that person...lead us the wrong way?"
Seeing Bai Luo unceremoniously flipping through a book called "Fox in the Dandelion Sea", Collei walked up to him with so concern and pulled up the corner of his clothes.
Because after they ca in, they didn't see any shadow of anyone.
But soon, her attention was attracted by sothing else.
Those were so bottles and jars, which she had also seen when she was wandering in Suru.
However, these things are only worthy of being owned by those who are called scholars. For a holess child like her, it is a luxury to even take a second look at them, let alone touch them.
Plus, the bottles and jars were filled with brightly colored liquids, which made her want to reach out and touch them.
"Don't move!"
When she was about to touch these things, a slightly hurried sound ca from the other side of the bookshelf.
"That's a magical reagent that can turn people into animals. Although it's only for a short ti, I don't think you'd like to experience it."
"..."
If it were anyone else, they might doubt the truthfulness of what he said, but Collei did not.
Because she had actually seen this kind of magic reagent before.
She had encountered so things when she was wandering.
For example, so bad people would use magic potions to turn holess children into animals such as dogs, rabbits or goats, and take them to perform on the streets or beg.
If it weren't for the epidemic and her extraordinary skills, perhaps Collei would have followed in the footsteps of those children.
Later, this matter was discovered by scholars in Suru, and this behavior was severely punished.
The scholar who leaked these potions was said to have been permanently expelled from the Darshan of the Amurta on the charge of heresy.
"Ah, you're the one from the dayti..."
After a brief shock, Collei also recognized the man in front of him.
The main reason is that his image is quite special and people will never forget it once they see it.
"You can call Cyno. My master asked to help Lisa and cure your illness."
Taking out the envelope with ink in it, Cyno explained.
Facing this child who had been injected with the residue of the demon god, Cyno had subconsciously ignored Bai Luo next to her.
It's not like he hasn't co into contact with similar people before, but this is the first ti he's seen soone like Collei who wasn't affected.
Judging from her behavior pattern, she was not assimilated by the demon remnants, and even... the demon remnants in her body were suppressed to a certain extent.
Is it because of him?
Cyno's eyes moved to Bai Luo again.
The remnants of the demon god cannot be suppressed, unless...
Unless he is the Harbinger of the Fatui, and has the power bestowed by the god, and the power is not low.
Otherwise, the remnants of the devil wouldn't be so cowardly.
"You said during the day that her condition was not very good. Can you tell more about it?"
Bai Luo casually picked up the potion that could turn people into animals from Cyno's mouth. He didn't seem to worry that it would affect him.
"The remnants of the demon god are all over her body. If all of them are exorcised, her body will be like a hollowed-out tree trunk. There is no way she can survive. So... we can only suppress it with a seal and let it sleep forever in her body."
This isn't exactly good news, but it's not bad either.
At least...it can roughly solve her problem.
"What do you think, Collei?"
As a "guardian", Bai Luo did not express his opinion, but looked at Collei next to him.
"I understand. Please seal them."
Collei agreed to Cyno without much hesitation.
Having been tortured by the remnants of the demon for many years, she knew very well how terrifying this thing was.
So even if it was just to seal them, it would be a good choice for her.
"Now is not the ti."
Looking at the night scene outside the window, Cyno did not agree imdiately.
"Night is when the demon god is most active. If we seal it now, unimaginable disasters will occur. Even if it is suppressed, the demon god's counterattack is still unimaginable for mortals like us. See you at Starsnatch Cliff at ten o'clock tomorrow morning."
"Okay, please."
After agreeing on the ti for the sealing, Collei wanted to go back with Bai Luo, but she found that he was still standing there without moving.
"Brother Cyno, can we discuss sothing?"
Looking at Cyno who was about to go back to the pile of books to do research, Bai Luo asked.
After hesitating for a mont, Cyno nodded slightly.
Even Collei didn't know what the two of them talked about that night.
Kaeya only knew that when Bai Luo left, Collei, who was beside him, had disappeared.
Instead, there was a kitten wrapped in bandages in his arms.
