Genshin Impact: I am best at sacrifice, don't cry

Chapter 23: Grand Master Falga's Test

Early the next morning.

"His name is Kaia, and he will train with you from now on..."

"Kaeya, just stand next to Diluk..."

A morning of training passed in a flash.

"Oh, how come you have a new brother after just one night of not seeing him?"

Nandou patted Diluk's shoulder and asked with a smile.

"It was raining heavily yesterday. My father found it outside the manor. Now he is following me. I will return it to him after I find his relatives."

Diluk said this, but he didn't hold any hope in his heart.

Nan Dou, who knew the truth, naturally knew that Kaeya, who was deliberately planted in Mond by Kanreya as Kanreya's spy in one of the seven countries, would definitely not be able to leave.

After a few words, Nandou walked over to Kaia who was alone not far away.

Seeing the strong sense of uneasiness in his eyes, he laughed and patted his shoulder: "Kaeya, Diluk and I are good brothers. From now on, I will be your big brother. You can come to me if you have any problems."

"As for now..."

"Let's go to the Deer Hunter Restaurant! We have a new brother, so we should celebrate no matter what."

Nandou enthusiastically pulled Kaeya, who was still a little resistant, and Diluk behind him shook his head slightly and followed.

……

Deer Hunter Restaurant.

"Order whatever you want. It's my treat today! Master Diluk pays!"

Nandou said this with confidence, and Diluk, who had long been accustomed to him, did not refute him.

After all, over the years, the more outstanding Nan Dou had given him meticulous guidance without asking him for a penny.

So, after a month, Kaeya finally opened up and integrated into the group of Nandou and Diluk.

Despite the heavy mission he carried, Kaiya was only a child of six or seven years old after all. Nan Dou, who had rich experience in raising children, quickly established a good relationship with him.

Speaking of which, Diluk during this period was also a passionate, upright, sunny boy with a smile on his face.

People will become restrained, nervous and closed in an unfamiliar environment, but after being surrounded by sunny smiles, few people will not be affected and changed.

……

At noon on a sunny day, Nan Dou and his two companions went to Xingluo Lake to fish.

"It's hooked, a super delicious blackback bass, quick, make a fire!"

Diluk and Kaeya, who had been fighting in the air force for the whole morning, were already growling with hunger, so they quickly and skillfully lit a fire.

After skillfully processing the fish, the three of them sat by the fire with their knees hugged, looking at the grilled fish eagerly, waiting for the meal to be served.

One fish is definitely not enough for three people, but after being hungry for the whole morning, the three of them were not in the mood to continue fishing.

Finally, the grilled fish was cooked, and the three of them couldn't wait to tear the fish meat.

Nandou suddenly said to Diluk: "A few days ago, I found Grand Captain Falgar and told him that I wanted to take the knight assessment in advance, and he agreed."

"Really?!"

Diluk's attention was instantly drawn to Sinandou's words.

"Well... it's hot, it's true, and..."

"And what?"

Diluk asked anxiously.

"Gulu..."

"And he is personally responsible for the assessment."

Nandou kept talking as he answered Diluk's question.

By the time Diluk realized it, the fish had been eaten by Nandou and Kaeya until there was little left.

"Hey, I haven't eaten yet!"

The three of them played and laughed together until night before returning to Mondstadt.

Before parting, Nandou waved to Diluk and reminded him, "Be prepared. Tomorrow at the Wind God Square, Grand Captain Falgar will test the two of us in public. Don't lose my people then."

"I will definitely pass the test and become an apprentice Knight of Favonius!" Diluk stood tall and proud, and responded to Nandou's question confidently.

"Brother, you can do it. I believe in you!" Kaiya's eyes were full of trust.

……

On the day of Nandou and Diluk's knight assessment, the large square in front of the statue of the God of Wind.

Countless onlookers who heard the news filled the entire square.

Among them were knights of the Knights of Favonius who were on leave, nuns from the Cathedral of Favonius, Mondstadt residents who were just joining in the fun, the housekeepers and maids from the Dawn Winery, and children from the Knight Training Grounds...

The gathering of hundreds of people forced the patrolling Knights of Favonius to come and maintain order.

Seeing this, Nandou nudged Diluk, who was standing there in a daze, with his elbow and asked jokingly, "What, are you nervous?"

Diluk's face flushed, his body trembled slightly, and he suddenly turned to look at Nandou and said excitedly: "I have waited for this moment for too long. I must become the best Knight of Favonius and fulfill my father's dream."

"Uh, it turns out I was excited instead of nervous... That's fine."

Nandou said with a ruddy face and some trembling.

It turns out that not only Diluk, but Nandou's hormones were also being secreted due to excitement.

"Hahaha, I haven't seen such a lively Mondstadt in a long time."

"You two little guys have to bring me some surprises, otherwise I will let down everyone who is waiting so eagerly!"

Grand Commander Falga is different from most knights. He does not have the seriousness and strict discipline of a knight. Freedom and ease are his hallmarks.

However, this does not raise any doubts about his qualification as a Knight of Favonius.

After all, he is the modern-day [Knight of the North Wind], the idol and goal of all the knights of the Knights of Favonius.

"We will not let you down, nor will we let down our efforts over the years!"

Nandou and Diluk performed a standard knight's salute to Falgar, and then shouted in unison.

The two people's long-cherished wish is about to come true, and neither of them is willing to give up this opportunity.

Because once you fail the Knight of Favonius assessment, you have to wait until next year to apply again, but Nandou and Diluk can't wait until next year.

"Everyone, please step back a little to avoid danger during the assessment."

After shouting to the crowd around him, Farga focused his attention on the two people.

"Take out your weapons. I will conduct a combat test on you today. As for the rest, when you become trainee knights, your seniors will slowly teach you."

In fact, today's assessment is not in compliance with regulations. If a reserve knight wants to become an apprentice Knight of Favonius, he needs to register after meeting the requirements, and then be led by the same number of Knights of Favonius to perform assessment tasks in the wild.

However, Grand Master Falga has broken the rules countless times since he took office, and everyone in the Knights of Favonius is accustomed to it.

Nan Dou took out the spear from his back. In addition, he had a short bow hanging on his body, two short knives and a bucket of arrows on his waist, and three throwing knives on his thighs with a special equipment belt. His main goal was to be proficient in all kinds of martial arts.

Diluk was much simpler, wearing light armor and holding a heavy sword in his hand, which was even longer than his height.

The two men tensed up, waiting for Farga's order so they could pounce on him.

"and many more!"

Suddenly, Farga spoke up, interrupting the two men's momentum.

"Do you know what is the most important thing for a Knight of Favonius?"

Farga's question was very common, and it was common sense that he was told on the first day of preparatory knight training.

"The courage to protect Mondstadt!" X2

Farga drew the sword from his waist, smiled and shook his head, giving an unexpected answer.

"As a Knight of Favonius, the most important thing is... strength!"
