My Next Life in Teyvat: I Just Wanted Friends, Not Every Girl's Love! Chapter 83: Another Invitation to the Jade Chamber
"Hey, are you alright?"
Early in the morning, Durandal looked at Lumine, who was both crying and laughing, thinking sothing was wrong with her, and asked.
"No, I’m perfectly fine."
"If you’re fine, then why are you crying and laughing? What strange things are you doing again?"
Since she herself had no problems, what was with her current behavior? To be able to smile bitterly so calmly, how skilled must she be to reach this level?
"I’m laughing because I took a particularly great photo, the kind you can keep forever."
In the morning, when she saw Durandal, Shenhe, and Klee lying together, she used her Kara to capture the scene.
It must be said, that scene was truly beautiful. If one ignored certain strange factors, that scene truly brought a heartwarming smile.
"Then why are you crying?"
"Because... because the main character in that picture isn’t ."
In her imagination, Durandal’s position should have been hers, with Durandal on her left and Shenhe on her right. But she ended up being an observer. How could she bear it?
"I don’t understand what you’re saying. In short, you’re fine, right?"
Since Lumine didn’t have any major problems, Durandal stopped humoring her madness.
After dinner, while Shenhe was ditating in her room according to her daily routine, Durandal and Lumine chatted with Paimon.
"You two should already know about Rex Lapis’s situation, right?"
"Yes! We didn’t expect Zhongli to actually be Rex Lapis, and that all of this was his plan. We were all shocked when we learned the truth."
At that ti, after the incident, they ran to the Northland Bank. When they saw Zhongli, Childe, and The Lady there, they were all stunned.
Upon seeing The Lady, Lumine truly wanted to fight her, but considering that this was Liyue Harbor, and the Northland Bank at that, causing trouble here might lead to her being taken away by the Millelith.
Finally, under Zhongli’s soothing, Lumine could only watch as The Lady left with Zhongli’s Gnosis.
"Wait, you said that The Lady also ca to Liyue Harbor?"
At the ntion of The Lady, Durandal’s eyes sharpened, and the aura around her beca quite dangerous.
Back in Mondstadt, because of the Tsaritsa, The Lady escaped from her. She had originally planned to find an opportunity to eliminate her when she saw her elsewhere, but she didn’t expect her to be in Liyue Harbor?
Lumine and Paimon were startled by Durandal’s aura. Rembering Durandal’s aversion to the Fatui, they nodded weakly.
"Is that so? I was careless. If I had known she was in Liyue Harbor, I would have stayed a few more days in Liyue Harbor to deal with her before leaving. No, she was already in Liyue Harbor when Osial was dealt with. That ans she had already been in Liyue Harbor for several days by then? I... actually missed the chance to eliminate her, truly..."
No, the more she thought about it, the angrier she got; the more she thought about it, the more she couldn’t control her aura. Lumine and Paimon were directly frightened by the aura released from Durandal, huddling together and trembling.
"You... you calm down, Durandal. You just missed one chance, you can get even next ti. Don’t be angry, don’t be angry."
"Angry? I’m not angry. I’m in a perfectly good mood."
No, no matter how you look at it, you don’t seem to be in a good mood. You’re completely on the verge of an outburst, the kind that explodes at the slightest provocation.
Lumine was well aware of Durandal’s current state but didn’t dare to say it directly, afraid that she would beco the target of Durandal’s venting.
What should she do at this mont? Lumine looked at Paimon for help, but Paimon indicated that she was just a mascot cheering from the sidelines and had no solutions.
"By the way, when you completed the commission given by Tianquan Star this ti, did you also cooperate with Childe of the Fatui?"
"Huh? Ah, that... there was no cooperation. It was just when helping Wangsheng Funeral Parlor prepare materials for the Rite of Descension, I got so money from him. I really didn’t do anything heinous for her, I really didn’t."
It’s here! The most feared thing finally happened. Durandal knew about her cooperation with the Fatui. Would she tear her apart?
Watching Durandal’s increasingly dangerous aura, Lumine nervously swallowed, feeling that she might be dood.
"Waaah~ What happened?"
At this mont, Klee, still in her pajamas, rubbed her eyes and groggily ca into the living room.
The mont Klee appeared, Durandal’s aura vanished completely, returning to her usual self. She ca before Klee and reached out to tidy her ssy, sleep-tousled hair.
"Nothing at all. Why did you oversleep today? So much later than usual?"
"Waaah~ Because I didn’t sleep well a few days ago, so I slept in a bit more today."
Klee leaned on Durandal, half-closing her eyes, answering semi-consciously.
Klee hadn’t rested much in the past few days because Durandal had left, so she couldn’t help but sleep in a bit more.
Durandal also noticed this, so she didn’t say much, just gently stroked Klee’s head and tidied her hair.
Click!
Lumine quickly took out her Kara and recorded this mont, capturing Durandal’s smiling instant very professionally.
Durandal looked inexplicably at Lumine, who had a moved expression, and took Klee’s hand to the washroom, preparing to help her get ready.
"Durandal really dotes on Klee so much. Paimon is also very cute, so why doesn’t Durandal treat Paimon the way she treats Klee?"
Paimon had so confidence in her own looks. Klee was cute, no doubt, but who wasn’t cute? Since they were all so cute, why did Durandal only dote on Klee and not her? This was blatant favoritism!
"Because in her eyes, you’re just ergency food."
"Hey (#`O´)! Don’t always bring that up, okay? Paimon is worried that Durandal will really treat as food in the future."
Maybe not in the future, she might already be treating you as food now.
She had always joked with Paimon about this, and last ti she almost took Paimon to make soup. Durandal seeing these things, she wondered if it would deepen her misunderstanding of Paimon, making the impression of her as ergency food even stronger.
Forget it, forget it. Even if she’s ergency food, she’ll only be useful in an ergency. With their current situation, there’s no shortage of food, so Paimon is still very safe.
After soothing Paimon’s emotions and appeasing her with a few als, the conversation continued.
"Durandal and Klee already have a good relationship. After this incident, Klee’s position in Durandal’s heart will probably beco even more important."
ε=(´ο`*))) Ah~ Her feelings were really complicated. Before Klee ca to Liyue Harbor, she had quite a lot of interactions with Durandal, and every night she could even try to get a chance to sleep with her.
But after Klee ca to Liyue Harbor, Durandal forgot about her, and her mind was almost entirely on Klee, which hurt her greatly.
However, Klee was very cute, so Lumine chose to forgive her and not dwell on it too much.
Anyway, Klee was only visiting for a short ti. When they returned to Mondstadt after a while, they would take Klee back, and then it would be her and Durandal’s journey.
Thinking of this, Lumine’s mood gradually cald down. She left the villa with Paimon, preparing to go out and avoid the storm for a bit.
She would return when Durandal’s anger subsided. Based on usual circumstances, it would probably be mostly gone by evening.
With Durandal’s help, Klee quickly returned to her usual sunny self. At this ti, Shenhe had also completed her daily morning practice. The three chatted for a bit and then went out.
As soon as they stepped out, they t Ganyu walking towards them.
eting this workaholic so close to ho first thing in the morning couldn’t be a coincidence; she must have co specifically to find her.
Ganyu politely smiled at the three of them, noticed Shenhe next to Durandal, and nodded at her.
"True Lord Cloud Retainer has already told the situation. If you need any help in Liyue Harbor, you can always co to Sea Moon Pavilion to find ."
"...I understand."
Shenhe hid behind Durandal. Although Durandal’s height couldn’t possibly hide her, Ganyu’s smile seed particularly dangerous to her.
Especially when she said she could go to Sea Moon Pavilion to find her, that feeling was particularly strong.
With Durandal in front of her, Ganyu wouldn’t be able to forcibly take her away, right?
Durandal glanced at Shenhe behind her and looked at Ganyu: "Is there sothing you need for? Are you looking for to deal with calorie matters? I’ve only been away from Liyue Harbor for a few days, and it’s already ti to eliminate them?"
Was she the type to be reckless without worries?
"No... that’s not it, you’ve misunderstood. I ca to find you this ti to invite you to the Jade Chamber for a talk. Ningguang wants to express her gratitude for what you’ve done for Liyue Harbor this ti. Not just Ningguang, Keqing also feels the sa. Could you... please co?"
Ganyu looked at Durandal sowhat nervously. The last ti she invited Durandal, Durandal had unhesitatingly refused her.
She was a bit worried that the other party would refuse her again this ti, and she even worried that Durandal would develop hostility towards Ningguang.
In a way, Ningguang had also used so people Durandal cared about. If Durandal still rembered these things, Ningguang would truly be in danger.
Never mind her status as one of the Liyue Qixing; even if Rex Lapis himself ca, he probably wouldn’t be able to protect her.
"Tianquan Star... Ningguang. Perfect, I also have so things I want to clarify with her."
She strongly suspected that guy had sched against her, and Durandal hated nothing more than being sched against.
Although she couldn’t inflict any severe punishnt on her, if she really did that, spreading so unpleasant rumors about her was still achievable.
"Lead the way. The three of us will go together."
"No problem."
