Therefore, although she is very strong and strategic, she still maintains the habit of acting alone, and even spends most of the year staying outside Mondstadt to carry out missions.
Although Jyn wanted to change her situation, she was the face of the Gunhild family after all, and could not openly support Eula - although she didn't want to admit it, Jyn, who had seen the faces of most members of the Lawrence family, was also full of disgust and resistance towards them.
Once she spoke up to support Eula, she would be used by some people to divert the topic to the relationship between the Gunhild family and the Lawrence family.
"Don't worry, I won't make that mistake."
Si Luo responded with a chuckle, then walked to Qin's side and looked at the documents on her desk.
"Do you need my help?"
"No... there's not a lot of work today."
Qin rejected his kindness and continued to deal with the documents on the table.
"If you have some free time... I hope you can take the initiative to contact Eula..."
If there is anyone in Mond who can help Eula out of her predicament today, apart from Barbatos, the god of wind who represents faith, the only one left is Silo, the honorary knight.
After all, he is not from Mond, so there is no historical connection between him and Eula.
"As for Eula, she should be reading in the library now... Every time she returns to Mondstadt, the only places she can go to are her home and the Knights' headquarters..."
Even though Eula's character had become very tough, no normal person would like to be looked at with disgust or rejection, so unless absolutely necessary, Eula rarely walked the streets of Mondstadt.
"This is no problem."
Si Luo chuckled and accepted another commission from Qin. Then, under the pretext of asking for compensation, he began to bully the lovely captain.
Chapter 80: Catching an adulterer
"Hmm? Si Luo, why are you here?"
In the library inside the Knights, Lisa, the librarian, was looking down at a light novel from Inazuma. As a result, with the sound of clear footsteps, she subconsciously raised her head and showed a look of surprise.
Except for the period when she first met Si Luo, she hadn't seen Si Luo come to the library for a long time - and when he came before, he would finish reading a book in a few seconds like quantum reading.
Because of this incident, her impression of Si Luo was greatly reduced at first, until she found out later that Si Luo was not deliberately making trouble, but really memorized all the knowledge in his mind. Only then did she completely look at him with new eyes, until the day when she had given up everything.
"and many more."
Without waiting for Si Luo to respond, the librarian stood up from her chair, pulled Si Luo over, put her head into his arms and sniffed, then raised her head with an affirmative look.
"You guy, you just left Qin!"
"When did you develop this talent for catching an adulterer?"
Si Luo put his arms around the elder sister's waist with some amusement, then sat down on her spacious chair.
This time he was not in a hurry to bully Lisa. After all, unlike Jean, the older sister, who was a librarian, usually stayed in the library and was in a daze. So if he really provoked Lisa's idea of sparring, he would not be able to get in touch with Eula in a short time.
The Wave Knight is also different from Klee and the others. As a lone ranger, she might leave Mondstadt again in the afternoon, so if you want to contact her, it is better not to delay.
"How about it, do you think your sister is amazing~"
Lisa snuggled into his arms, enjoying the closeness with her man while responding with a smile.
"Not only that, I can also tell where this bad guy last stayed~"
"It's behind little Diona~"
Having said that, Lisa teased him by placing her hand on Longinus through his robe, which made Si Luo look surprised.
"You still have this skill?"
This was indeed somewhat beyond his expectations.
"Pfft!"
Seeing Si Luo's admiring expression, Lisa couldn't help but laugh.
"You don't really believe it, do you? It's so cute... Of course I don't have this ability, but when I left this morning, I saw you holding Diona in your arms and sleeping~"
Although Si Luo always likes to do some morning exercises, he usually chooses the early morning time period so as not to interfere with the normal working hours of his family. So based on the time she left home, it is highly likely that Si Luo did not do morning exercises after waking up.
"Really? But you guessed wrong this time. That's not where it ended up."
A mischievous smile appeared on Si Luo's face, and then he slowly leaned down and whispered close to Lisa's ear.
"The last place it stayed was actually between Diona and Klee~"
"..."
Because she had seen this kind of scene more than once, an extremely three-dimensional scene almost subconsciously emerged in Lisa's mind, causing her fair cheeks to instinctively turn slightly red.
"It's a pity Qin didn't arrest you..."
After all, with Klee's mother away, Jean was the entrusted guardian, and the little loli she protected was not only being taken care of, but she was even more skilled than them. Lisa really admired Si Luo, who was able to calm Jean down under such circumstances, and was even willing to entrust Barbara's affairs to him.
"There's nothing I can do. After all, Jean knows that there's no other person like this in the entire Teyvat continent."
Si Luo responded with a smile, and then stopped flirting with Lisa, but turned the topic to his main goal this time.
"Speaking of which, Lisa, could you help me a little?"
"Hmm? Then call me Sister Lisa first~"
Without even asking what he needed help with, Lisa turned sideways with a smile on her face and lifted his chin with her finger.
......
"..."
On the second floor of the library, in a very remote corner, an elegant knight girl was sitting at a desk, looking down attentively at a book about the geography of Mondstadt.
This is one of the few places where Eula can get away from the outside world and rest comfortably. The library here is not open to the public. Generally speaking, you need to make an appointment in advance if you want to come in and read. So the people she meets here are basically nerds or scholars, and they don't pay much attention to her.
But today, an extremely unexpected visitor appeared in her rare pure land.
Si Luo took a book and sat down casually opposite Eula, then crossed his legs and read the book in his hand in a rather casual posture.
"..."
Because Si Luo did not take the initiative to say hello, Eula, who was never good at communicating with others, did not know how to speak. She just lowered her head as much as possible to prevent Si Luo from seeing her face, and continued to read the book in her hand.
However, this time she just couldn't calm down and read.
Although Si Luo, who was sitting opposite him, did not make any noise, he was like a person with ADHD and would adjust his posture every tens of seconds, making Eula, who was already paying some attention to this side, even more absent-minded.
After staying there for a few more minutes, Eula finally couldn't stand the awkward atmosphere anymore. She closed the book in her hand, stood up and left the desk, then walked towards Lisa's seat, ready to take the book back to her residence to continue reading.
"Ms. Lisa, I want to borrow this book."
Because of their personalities, the relationship between Eula and Lisa is quite good, so when Eula spoke, her words were less aggressive than usual, but still sounded a little cold.
This is not because her character is too arrogant, but simply to protect herself, she can only shape her behavior into a troublesome character that is difficult for others to approach, and minimize contact with other people.
"I see... But why are you going back so early today?"
Since the books were not confidential, Lisa skillfully began to register the borrowing information while asking with a chuckle.
“I can’t calm down…”
"Is this so..."
Lisa nodded, and then continued to register the information while continuing to speak casually.
"Speaking of which, the Cat's Tail Tavern in Mondstadt has recently changed its rules..."
Chapter 81: Multiple Lines of Development
Given Margaret's personality, she would naturally not be hostile to Eula because of her family background. Therefore, the Cat's Tail Tavern is one of the few shops that can accommodate Eula.
In addition, Eula was under a lot of pressure on a daily basis, so basically every time she returned to Mondstadt, she would find time to go to the Cat's Tail Tavern for a few drinks. So when Lisa mentioned this familiar name, she, who originally had no interest, instantly shifted her attention.
"What happened?"
In her impression, the proprietress of the Cat's Tail Tavern had a very close relationship with the Knights. In addition, there was the cat-eared loli who served as the bartender and possessed the Eyes of God. It could be said that she had never heard of any trouble there.
So when she heard about the rule changes at the Cat's Tail Tavern, her first reaction was that something big had happened.
Margaret was one of the few people who could be barely considered a friend, so Eula naturally didn't want anything unexpected to happen to her.
"It's nothing serious, it's just that the proprietress has a lover, so in order to avoid suspicion, the rules of the Cat's Tail Tavern have been adjusted a little... Now only female guests are accepted."
Lisa responded with a chuckle, and after registering Eula's borrowing information, she handed the book to her again.
"Is this so..."
Eula nodded, and while she breathed a sigh of relief, she also felt a little curious about Margaret's situation.
Although she and Margaret were just ordinary friends, she was also very clear that a big part of the reason why Margaret was single at this age was that she had high standards, and even the elite in the Knights Templar did not meet her standards for choosing a spouse.
After all, Eula couldn't escape her gossiping instinct, so after the girl left the library with the books, she subconsciously came to the road leading to the Cat's Tail Tavern without realizing it.
......
"That's it."
After Eula left the library, Lisa sat back in her chair and looked at the figure in the corner with helplessness.
"Well, that's fine."
"Really? Although I don't mind your private life, I am a normal woman after all...Aren't you afraid that I will be angry if you ask me to help you approach other girls?"
"Of course I'm not afraid~"
Si Luo responded with a chuckle, then walked to Lisa's side and became close to the gentle older sister.
Even if Lisa was really unhappy, he had plenty of ways to appease her.
More than ten minutes later, after comforting Lisa, Si Luo left the library. However, he did not follow Eula directly to the Cat's Tail Tavern. Instead, after leaving the Knights' headquarters, he changed direction and rushed towards the training ground not far to the side.
There are not many knights stationed in Mondstadt now, and they all have their own work tasks on weekdays. Therefore, some facilities that specifically serve the Knights Templar are quite deserted during this period and are basically in a state of no one using them.
Just like the training ground near the headquarters of the Knights Templar, it was supposed to be the place where the official knights trained every day, but with the departure of the main force, in order not to waste such a large space, Qin temporarily divided it into a venue for knight assessment and made it a training ground for those candidate knights.
As he gradually approached the training ground, two crisp sounds came into his ears one after another. Then he quickened his pace, and after entering the training ground, he soon noticed the two girls waving swords in the center.
One of them was Noelle, whom she had met once before. The silver-haired girl was still wearing her clothes that combined a maid outfit with a knight outfit. She held a huge sword that looked extremely heavy in both hands and swung it again and again.
It was a picture full of power. No wonder Qin said that she had already met the requirements for promotion to elite knight.
In addition to Noelle, there was also a girl with golden hair beside her.
Although this girl’s sense of power was much weaker than Noel’s, and her stamina was somewhat lacking, she still gritted her teeth and swung the sword together with Noel.
"Well…"
After all, Noel was the holder of the Eye of God. Although he had been training for several hours, he still had some energy left. He soon noticed the extra strangers in the training ground and subconsciously shifted his gaze over.
"Mr. Si Luo!!"
The moment she saw Si Luo, Noel, who was a little fan girl, her eyes suddenly lit up. Then she put the sword in her hand on the ground and trotted over to meet him.
"Why are you here?"
There were stars twinkling in the girl's eyes and her cute look of longing made another girl in training subconsciously stop what she was doing and look over with curiosity.
"I just happened to pass by here and heard your voice."
Si Luo responded with a chuckle, looking at the lovely girl in front of him, he couldn't help but smile faintly.
Although Noelle was not aware of it, after training for several hours, her clothes were already soaked with sweat. Therefore, the fragrance emanating from the girl was stronger than normal. Because she and Si Luo were so close, she could even sense the heat emanating from Noelle.
It can only be said that Noel's natural offensive was something that even Si Luo could not resist.
"Eh? Mr. Si Luo...did you come here just for me?"
Noelle was stunned for a moment, and then her emotions became more and more intense.
She did not think of Si Luo's words in terms of matters between men and women, but simply felt excited because she thought she had received Si Luo's attention and recognition.
"Silo...Are you the famous Honorary Knight?!"
The blonde girl next to him also put down her sword and came over with a curious look on her face.
Although she didn't press her body almost against Si Luo like Noel, because of her clothes, the curves of her figure were even more obvious than those of Noel.
"I am Si Luo, yes, but I'd rather not be famous."
Si Luo responded with a chuckle. That gentle smile coupled with his handsome face was extremely lethal to women of any age. At least the blonde girl couldn't resist this attack, and her eyes looking at him became hot at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Nice to meet you, Lord Si Luo! My name is Irene, and I'm the future knight of the Knights of Favonius!"
