Genshin Impact: What? The one we need to save is Fukaros

Chapter 174: The Dilemma of the Knights of Favonius

Just as Tevarin began his new life as a dragon, the storm in Mondstadt continued to escalate.

The wave of protests against the Knights of Favonius is getting higher and higher, with no signs of stopping.

Even though Jyn personally came forward and repeatedly promised the people that the Knights of Favonius had never withheld the compensation that Tevarin deserved, this did not win the people's full trust.

When the truth has not yet been fully uncovered, people always tend to sympathize with and support the seemingly weaker party.

In addition to public protests, the West Wind Church also put a lot of pressure on Qin.

Most church leaders believed that the dragon disaster in Mondstadt and the subsequent wage dispute were caused because the Knights of Favonius, who were in charge of the finances, failed to properly worship Tevarin, the Dragon of the East Wind.

Therefore, they believe that the Knights of Favonius should be held responsible for this series of events.

The church suggested that the Knights of Favonius first compensate Tevarin with a portion of the Mora to show their apology and calm his anger, and then gradually pay off the remaining salary.

However, this seemingly reasonable suggestion was rejected by Qin.

This decision caused strong dissatisfaction in the Church of Favonius, and senior nun Grace even made sharp criticisms of Jean and the Knights of Favonius on many public occasions.

Qin really has a lot of pain that she can't express.

In fact, she had considered accepting the church's advice, but the reality was that the financial situation of the Knights of Favonius was already stretched to the limit.

Farga's expedition had incurred enormous military expenses, and had severely depleted the Knights' reserves.

Today, the Knights of Favonius can only barely maintain their daily operations.

If additional funds are allocated to compensate Tevarin, the knights' salaries will not be paid this month.

In such a predicament, Qin could only choose to take all the responsibilities alone and keep apologizing to all parties.

Although the effect of this was not significant, it at least bought her some time and prevented the situation from further deteriorating.

However, the situation soon deteriorated again.

The Lawrence family once again launched a massive protest demonstration, demanding that the Knights of Favonius deal with Kaia, a beast in human form, as soon as possible.

Qin understood that the wisest thing to do now was to cut the Gordian knot and punish Kaia directly.

Doing so is undoubtedly against the spirit of chivalry.

But if they continue to delay, the credibility and dignity of the Knights of Favonius will suffer an even more serious blow.

While she was in a dilemma, Diluk walked to her desk with steady steps.

He looked at her tired but still determined face with mixed emotions.

If he had not chosen to leave the Knights, perhaps they would have become the best couple.

Unfortunately, the Knights of Favonius were not as bright as he had imagined, but rather bureaucracy was prevalent.

"Master Diluk, are you here for Kaeya's matter?" Qin asked with a complex emotion flashing in her eyes.

Diluk nodded slightly and responded in a low voice: "Yes. I have decided to accept the cooperation with West Factory."

Qin felt as if her heart was being cut by a knife. Her voice was shaking undisguisedly. "Why?"

"My father died heroically for the Knights, but his death is still considered an 'unfortunate accident'." Diluk stared at Jean. "I don't want Kaeya to bear the undeserved infamy for the rest of his life because of the Knights."

Qin was silent for a long time.

Finally, she spoke with difficulty: "This is all my fault. I knew that the West Factory would..."

Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Diluk's angry voice: "Qin, I really don't understand why you always take all the responsibility on yourself?

We all know that the person truly responsible for Mondstadt's current state is Falga!

He is a Knight of the North Wind, but he is extremely free and undisciplined. He spends all day in the tavern with Simon and pushes all the affairs to you. "

"Diluc, please stop talking." Qin said in an unquestionable tone, "My last name is Gunnhildr, and from the day I was born, I was destined to shoulder this responsibility."

Diluk became even angrier when he heard this. "You keep saying you're fighting for freedom, but you're bound by your family's honor and responsibility, with no freedom at all. Isn't this ridiculous?"

Facing his fierce questioning, Qin's eyes did not show any sign of wavering, "Freedom always requires someone to pay a price, and I am that price."

Diluk took a deep breath and tried to calm his surging emotions. "You are willing to sacrifice, but I am not."

After saying this, he resolutely turned around and left, leaving behind a firm and resolute back.

.......

It was another beautiful afternoon, the sun was shining, the breeze was blowing, and it brought the freshness and moisture of the Fruit Wine Lake.

In a quiet place by the Wine Lake, Lin Yide lay peacefully on a carefully selected lounge chair.

He held a delicate fishing rod with the line hanging in the lake, waiting for the fish to bite.

Tevarin also fished at the lake, but apparently he lacked the patience to do so.

After several unsuccessful attempts, it simply threw the fishing rod aside, and laid its huge body on the ground. Soon, it began to breathe evenly, and had fallen into a sweet dream.

Not far away, Ying also found a comfortable chair and lay down.

In her hand, she held a copy of The Mysteries of Sherlock Holmes borrowed from Lin Yide and read it attentively.

She was immersed in this peaceful and harmonious atmosphere, as if she had returned to the days long ago when she was traveling around with her brother Kong.

At this moment, Fengyuan Manye and Lei Dapao walked up to Lin Yide side by side.

"Factory owner," Fengyuan Manye was about to speak, but was gently stopped by Lin Yide with a gesture.

Lin Yide didn't say much, but took out an exquisite table and two comfortable chairs from the system space and motioned for them to sit down.

Then, Lin Yide began to make coffee for them personally.

The coffee beans are ground delicately, the aroma is overflowing, and the brewing technique is skillful and elegant.

Soon, two cups of fragrant coffee were placed in front of Fengyuan Manye and Lei Dapao.

The aroma of coffee wafts through the air, bringing with it a warm and peaceful atmosphere.

Fengyuan Manye and Lei Dapao sat on the chairs, holding hot coffee in their hands, and an indescribable warm feeling surged in their hearts.

They took a sip of the coffee, and the aromatic flavor spread in their mouths, making them feel relaxed and happy.

Tevarin was also attracted by the fragrant aroma of coffee.

It opened its eyes, moved its nose, and then walked slowly towards me.

It stared at the coffee in Lin Yide's hand, just like a pet dog seeing its owner eating.

Lin Yide couldn't stand its scorching gaze. He smiled helplessly, took out a large wooden barrel from the system space, and made a bucket of coffee for Tevarin.

When he finished doing all this, Lin Yide suddenly felt a resentful gaze behind him.

He turned around and saw Yingzheng putting down the novel in his hand with a hint of expectation in his eyes.

Lin Yide sighed inwardly, then smiled and said to Ying: "Come over and try the coffee I made."

Ying heard this and showed a satisfied smile on her face, "Since you invited me sincerely, I will give you a favor."
