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

After the obstacles were removed, the group quickly returned to Mondstadt.

The young adventurers thanked Diluk again and took their companions to the city's medical clinic.

"Compared to a few years ago, there have been huge changes. There are a lot fewer people here."

Nan Dou looked around and found that there were more agricultural-related stores in the city, such as seed stores and fertilizer stores, which were very rare before.

"That's normal. The Knights have opened up several settlements outside Mondstadt and are allowing residents to move there for free. They are also distributing land for free, and only require them to hand over a small amount of grain every year."

"With the protection of the Knights, there is no need to worry about encountering danger in the new place of residence."

"It turns out that one of the reasons why the Knights' Order had a hard time expanding was that they didn't need that many people. Otherwise, the Knights wouldn't have been tasked with finding kittens and puppies."

"It's different now. The Knights have money now. With the help of the training and promotion methods you summarized, the training time of the knights has been greatly reduced, allowing the size of the Knights to expand rapidly."

Diluk said this and cast an admiring look at Nandou again.

Diluk, who has traveled across the seven kingdoms and witnessed all kinds of customs and the outrageous local political plans, has become more and more impressed by Nandou, who was able to plan the development of Mondstadt for the next few decades before he even reached adulthood.

Nandou felt a little uncomfortable when Diluk looked at him. He inexplicably felt that Diluk was like his fanboy.

But he wasn't talking nonsense when he was talking back then.

Nan Dou is a novelist and he always has to collect some materials, so he wrote down some impressive speeches by bigwigs.

"Ahem, that's all in the past. Let's go to the Angel's Gift first. I've asked someone to notify Qin. She will be very happy to hear that you're back."

"Oh, I forgot to tell you that Jean is now the leader of the Knights."

Diluk patted Nandou's shoulder with a smile, just like before.

Without going through those dark times, his disappeared brothers returned, and he was still the upright and passionate young man he was back then. However, his age and experience did add a bit of mature charm to him.

"Jin is the acting leader...wait, Jean is now the leader of the Knights?!"

Nan Dou suddenly realized that although the title of acting team leader had two more words, the meaning they represented was completely different.

Diluk seemed to have been expecting Nandou's shocked expression for a long time, and deliberately waited for him to recover before explaining: "Yes, a year ago, Jean gained the upper hand in the competition with Grand Master Falgar, and Grand Master Falgar took the opportunity to pass the position of leader of the Knights of Favonius to her."

Nan Dou took a few deep breaths and asked doubtfully, "Then why did you call Falga Grand Commander just now?"

"Well, I've been calling him that for more than ten years, I'm used to it." Diluk explained flawlessly, but Nandou always felt that he was deliberately misleading him.

"Jin took over the position of leader of the Knights, no wonder..."

When Jean was still young, Nandou passed on his relatively liberal thoughts to Jean. Coupled with the fact that she had always believed in Barbatos, it was very easy for her to choose the path that would make Mondstadt more prosperous than the traditional aristocracy.

As for the knight noble family Gunhild behind her, they are actually easier to talk to than imagined.

The oldest knight nobles were the first to accept advanced ideas simply because of their family motto and beliefs - [Eternal Protection of Mondstadt].

After determining that Mondstadt could become more prosperous, the Gunhild family even took the lead in reducing family power and supporting the work of the Knights Templar.

"Hahaha, let's go and have a good drink. Kaia is probably drinking in the tavern right now, so let's call him along."

Most of the Mondstadt residents they met along the way took the initiative to greet Diluk, but for some reason, no one recognized Nandou.

You know, Nandou used to be much more popular in Mondstadt than Diluk.

"It seems that this time fate's intervention did not fail to modify history, but some people were not affected..."

Nan Dou thought to himself, but he still couldn't figure out the rules of fate's interference.

Soon, the two arrived at the door of the Angel's Gift Tavern.

"Oh, what a coincidence, Rosalia is here to drink too?"

Nan Dou looked with a smile at Rosalia, who was wearing a strange nun's uniform and had a fantastic figure and was about to push open the door of the tavern.

"You are... Nandou?!"

"You're not... Heh, after all these years, you're back. What a surprise."

A long-lost smile appeared on Rosalia's cold face.

"Let's go to the bar first and have a drink and chat."

Diluk waved his hand, and the three of them entered the Angel's Gift Tavern.

Because it was still early, even though the pub was open, there were not many customers, but there were one or two drunkards.

"Master Diluk!"

"And... Master Nandou!"

Bartender Charles recognized Nan Dou's identity at a glance.

"Charles, is there no one in the private room on the second floor now?"

Diluk waved his hand and asked.

"Only Master Kaia is here."

Diluk smiled and shrugged and said to the two of them, "I told you, Kaeya must be here."

"Well, Charles, we'll go up first, and the wine will be the same as before."

The three of them entered the private room on the second floor together, and saw Kaia wearing a blindfold, drinking and reading a book.

"It's rare to see my sworn brother come to the tavern so late in the day. I'm not surprised, Rosaria. Wait... are you Nandou-ge?!"

Kaiya, who was still sitting in his seat a second ago, suddenly jumped up and moved closer to look at Nandou everywhere.

"..."

After a while of noise, everyone sat down and started talking about their experiences over the years, and Qin soon arrived.

This surprised Nan Dou a lot, because it should be Qin's working time now.

After asking, Qin chuckled and replied, "Nandou Senior, you often advised me not to work so hard back then."

"I took your advice and assigned most of the work to specially trained assistants. They only need to be handled every other day. If there are urgent cases, someone will come to me."

"Thanks to your advice, otherwise I would have had a hard time finding time to practice."

Qin expressed her gratitude to Nan Dou very sincerely. Not only that, but Mond's current status also has a lot to do with Nan Dou.

"Don't talk about this outside of work hours. It gives me a headache."

Rosalia spoke up just in time to interrupt the atmosphere that was beginning to turn into a thank-you party.

"Yes, Nan Dou just came back, let's not talk about this, let's drink, come on!"

As the protagonist, Diluk took the lead, picked up the wine glass and stood up, suggesting that they drink together.

The others said nothing more and stood up to clink their glasses.

Nan Dou looked at the apple wine in his hand and finished it in one gulp.

The wine still tastes the same.

People are still the same people as before.

This is Mond, it has completely changed.
