Menma and Hashirama, what happened in Teyvat

"...Is that so? You two are truly heroes recognized by so many people. The Fatui are no match for you two."

In the hall, after listening to Menma and Hashirama's narration of their battle against the Fatui, Porto's eyes lit up and his whole face was filled with admiration, "It's great that you two have such a strong power to easily pin the Fatui to the ground and beat them up."

"Haha, although Menma is indeed like that, forget about my words." Hashirama scratched his head and smiled ashamedly, "To be honest, this is my first time killing someone, and I almost couldn't get over the hurdle in my heart at the time. And to be honest, I only killed two big guys, which is nothing compared to Menma's record."

"Mr. Senju, you don't have to be so modest. After all, I don't know anyone in our Mondstadt who can beat a tall vanguard of the Fatui to death with just one punch. Even Noelle is not that outrageous."

Porto thought that Hashirama was being overly modest. "Ah, if only I could have such strong power. After all, Mondstadt, whether it is the Knights or the ordinary civilians, have endured the various evil deeds and arrogance of this group of Fatui for too long. All of us really want to beat them up and throw them out of Mondstadt."

"Hey, Porto, keep your voice down." Porto's voice was quite loud, so Virag couldn't help but remind him, "Don't forget that you are not allowed to make loud noises here. As a Knight of Favonius, you must abide by the rules. Not to mention that there is a library next to it, and Captain Jean is still in the office dealing with things. It's not good for your voice to disturb her."

"Oh, oh, oh... yes, yes." After Virag's reminder, Porto realized that he had forgotten himself a little, and hurriedly lowered his voice, "Then, this is left to the two heroes. I have to go back to my post first. After all, it's not a good idea to leave all the tasks for the two of us to Atto."

After saying that, Porto respectfully saluted the two of them as a knight, then walked out of the headquarters gate and continued to stand outside guarding the gate with Atto.

Menma and Hashirama waited and chatted outside the office until Qin finally finished registering the information.

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting." When the two of them walked into the head's office again, those people had already been escorted away by Qin. And now, this also meant that she wanted to have a good chat with the two of them.

"Mr. Uzumaki, Mr. Senju." Qin's expression became very serious. "Although I am very grateful for what you have done today, now I want to know your views on Mond and your specific ideas."

Hearing Qin's direct words, Menma's eyes moved slightly: "Captain Qin might as well make your words clearer. After all, I also want to know what you think of us."

"Is that so..." Hearing Menma's question, which was like a host taking the initiative, Jean did not feel disgusted, but chose to tell the whole story directly: "About the two of you... No, about what happened on the first day you arrived in Mondstadt, Mr. Uzumaki. I have heard from the people of the Knights. Speaking of this matter alone, I want to know why you were so cruel to Sister Rosaria at that time."

"Since Captain Qin asked directly, I will speak frankly." Menma looked Qin in the eyes and said, "I don't like being monitored, especially the kind of monitoring that is full of malicious intent. And your Sister Rosaria treated us as threats just because we are so powerful. She even called me a 'Faint' just because of the way I was dressed.

Do you think I can honestly swallow this inexplicable and sudden anger? "

At this point, Menma had already placed his hands on the desk, looking at Qin with an extremely oppressive aura. Even Hashirama, who was standing by, noticed something was wrong, so he didn't dare to speak up.

"We came to Mondstadt and stayed here temporarily because we felt that the environment here was comfortable and the people were simple and honest, so we liked it very much. But on the first day, something like this happened. It was impossible for me to keep a good temper, so in a rage, I fought with Sister Rosalia and injured her."

Feeling Menma's terrifying aura, Qin couldn't help but swallow her saliva. The opponent's strength was obviously far superior to hers, because of this sense of oppression from the strength, whether it was the Grand Commander Falga or the Fatui's executive officer "Madam" stationed in Mondstadt, they were not as good as Menma standing in front of her.

Therefore, she became even more convinced of Kaia's evaluation of the two people, and even felt that what Kaia said seemed to be too conservative.

"But I'm not an unreasonable person." Just as Qin was still thinking about how to calm Menma's anger, Menma suddenly took a step back and put away his momentum. "Since Sister Rosalia has been punished by me, and I also understand that this is not an order from any force, it is purely her personal attitude and behavior, so I don't have the idea of ​​venting my anger on the Knights or the West Wind Church.

I just hope that while we are still in Mondstadt, we will not be under any surveillance. That way, we can continue to be friends, and if Mondstadt is in trouble, we can help to a certain extent. To put it bluntly, if we really want to do something to Mondstadt, unless the Wind God comes in person, no matter what kind of protection and countermeasures you take, it will be useless. "

Qin heaved a sigh of relief after hearing Menma's threatening words, because she could tell that Menma didn't have any hostility when he said this, which made his words more like a reminder than a threat to prevent them from making mistakes again in the future.

What's more, Menma was willing to say all these words clearly, which showed that in his heart he was still willing to believe in the Knights Templar, or at least believe in himself as the acting leader.

"I understand." Qin nodded. "This matter is our fault. I apologize to you two on behalf of Sister Rosalia and the West Wind Church."

"You don't need to apologize. After all, we have already let it go in our hearts, so you don't have to take it too seriously." Menma was very satisfied with Qin's attitude, so his tone softened a lot. "Before rescuing those people, the two of us went to the Dawn Winery and reached a consensus with Master Diluc. Now, we have the same idea as then, to see if we can establish a friendship with your Knights."

"Eh?"

This kind of thing was something Jean had never expected, whether it was Menma and the others going to the Dawn Winery or him wanting to make friends with the Knights.

"I believe you can see that, Captain Qin, we are not from this world. We want to be more convenient in this world, and we know that more friends mean more paths." Menma said with the look of an old hand, "And I think it's the same for you too."

Qin nodded silently. After all, Mondstadt had been bullied by the Fatui, who were rampant in Mondstadt under the pretext of garrison and diplomacy. If Qin had the ability to change this situation, she would definitely support it and would be eager to take action immediately.

The matter of the Wind Dragon was also a very big problem, and it was also one of the reasons why the Fatui had become more and more arrogant recently. With Lord Barbatos, the God of Wind, obviously not intervening, the Knights were carrying such a heavy burden alone, and the pressure was still very great.

If I could get help from these two powerful men at this time...

Although she really hoped that this would be the case, and Menma had taken the initiative to bring this up, Qin finally suppressed her excitement and continued to maintain the serious image that an acting leader should have: "I'm glad to hear Mr. Uzumaki say that, but... if that's the case, then we in Mond don't know what kind of reward we should use to thank you two."

If it was just this matter tonight, then it would be fine for Jean to use enough Mora as a reward, just like what the Adventurer's Guild did to adventurers who completed commissions. But if it was something like hiring two people and asking them to help Mondstadt resolve the crisis, then the reward might not be something they could afford or decide.

Even if nothing else, the Knights did not want Mond to attract another "monster" in order to contain or deal with the Fatui, a "monster" that refused to leave.

Seeing Qin's doubts, Menma said loudly: "If the relationship between us is really just like the relationship between the Adventurer's Association and the adventurers, then I can't be said to have gained the 'friendship' of the Knights."

"Oh? What do you mean Mr. Uzumaki?"

"If there really is a situation where we need to take action, as long as Mondstadt itself can always satisfy us, then we will take the initiative to take action without even asking you to do so. As for the issue of remuneration, this will only be raised at the end, or even not raised at all."

"But this..."

"No matter how much you pay us, it won't bring us closer. After all, we are not Mond's mercenaries. Moreover, we came here for the purpose of making friends, so we naturally don't want to use this method to maintain our relationship."

"Is that so... Well, as the acting leader, I would like to thank you two gentlemen in advance."

"You're welcome. After all...some things are also our goals."
