Chapter 46
The Lady's Apprehension, Paimon's Dumbfounded Expression! (1/5)

The Grand Hotel Gote.

In the room on the top floor,

a woman sat on the sofa with a sullen face, coldly watching the Fatui who were trembling not far away, and said in a deep voice: “Anastasia, have you found out what happened to those people?”

“Can they be saved?”

The latter trembled all over, quickly shook her head, and said in a trembling voice: “Your Excellency, they… since the incident yesterday, we have tried our best to rescue them, but there is a mysterious power within their bodies, and we have no way to deal with it, so we can only end their suffering with our own hands.”

“As for why they are like this, I am incompetent and haven't found any clues.”

The woman's heart sank,

No clues?

This is troublesome!

After her subordinates had the accident, she also went to check.

However,

She couldn't see what kind of mysterious power appeared in their bodies.

If it was Elemental Power, it was different from the seven elements, but it didn't seem to come from the Abyss.

The Abyss power is forbidden, with an ominous aura. If it came from the Abyss, she could feel it.

After a moment of silence,

the woman looked at her subordinate in front of her and asked, “Has any stranger come to Mondstadt recently?”

The latter blinked, lost in thought.

After a while,

she seemed to think of something and quickly said: “Your Excellency, two days ago, a blonde traveler came to Mondstadt. Apart from that, it seems there are no strangers visiting.”

A blonde traveler?

Just a traveler from a foreign land, no need to pay too much attention.

It’s just,

this mysterious strongman who attacked the Fatui is quite troublesome.

Although she is arrogant, she is not yet arrogant to the point of being reckless.

She was still full of fear for this unknown strongman who was unknown and whose methods were mysterious.

“Order everyone, conceal this matter completely, and never leak any information.”

“At the same time,”

“Secretly investigate and find out who the other party is. Since he dares to move my people, I will make him pay a heavy price!”

The woman took a breath of relief and hurriedly bowed: “Yes, Your Excellency, rest assured, I'm already taking care of it, and I will never let anyone know about yesterday's incident.”

The woman nodded, a little dispirited, waved her hand lightly, and said softly: “Go down, don’t come in and disturb me without my orders.”

“Also,”

“Pay attention to the movements of the Knights of Favonius.”

“Now is the critical moment of the plan. I want to know about any wind or rain in the Knights of Favonius.”

“Yes, Your Excellency!”

This Fatui named Anastasia didn't hesitate at all, turned around and left the room quickly. After closing the door, her heart that had been hanging finally settled.

Although, compared to other Harbingers, the Lady was very friendly to them.

But the Harbingers are the Harbingers after all. How could a small fry like her not be afraid when facing the Lady's wrath?

What if the Lady killed her in a fit of rage, she would have no power to resist.

Fortunately,

Although the Lady was furious, she did not vent her anger on her in the end, and she escaped disaster.

However, thinking of the Lady's words, she didn't dare to be negligent, and she quickly left with a heightened spirit.

At the same time,

a photo appeared in the hand of the woman in the room, and the person in the photo was none other than the lazy fish, Venti.

Looking at Venti in the photo, a trace of hatred flashed in the woman's eyes, and she muttered: “Is it you, Barbatos?”

“Don’t let me be sure if you are him, otherwise, I will definitely take revenge!”

As if she had thought of something, the half of the woman's face that was revealed seemed a little hideous, and the hatred in her eyes was like a beast that wanted to devour people.

...

Starfell Lake.

After Klee arrived, she carried her little backpack and pulled Paimon to the lakeside, happily throwing the boom boom bakudan into the lake.

Paimon was also a little curious, looking at little Klee with expectation in her eyes.

However,

after the first boom boom bakudan was thrown, there was no reaction at all.

Paimon blinked in confusion, looking at little Klee in confusion: “Klee, what's wrong?”

Klee scratched her head, quickly reacted, and said with a smile: “Hee hee, Klee forgot that the boom boom bakudan she brought this time isn't waterproof.”

“Paimon, wait a minute, Klee will modify it!”

She said,

the little guy put down her backpack, poured out dozens of cute boom boom bakudan inside, took out some seemingly simple materials from her backpack, squatted by the lake, and began her modification.

Looking at little Klee's skillful movements, Paimon twitched the corner of her mouth.

No wonder Klee is often put under house arrest by the Acting Grand Master, she is simply a genius, but not a genius in the ordinary sense.

With her expertise in bombs, if she's not restricted, she's really very dangerous.

Not long after,

Klee, satisfied, held up the modified boom boom bakudan in her little hand and said with a smile: “Yay, Klee did it! Klee made the boom boom bakudan waterproof, it will definitely explode this time!”

“Paimon, Klee will treat you and the brother and sister to grilled fish!”

She said,

the little guy excitedly threw the boom boom bakudan in her hand into the lake, then quickly covered her long little ears with her hands.

Paimon blinked curiously, didn't dodge, and didn't cover her ears like little Klee, but stared at the lake.

The next moment,

“Boom......”

A loud bang came, a huge splash of water appeared on the lake, and Paimon, who was unprepared, was immediately drenched by the lake water.

Moreover,

the sound of the explosion was too loud, causing Paimon's head to spin, and she almost couldn't fly steadily.

At the same time,

several large fish were blown up to the surface of the lake, and even a few flew into the air.

Paimon took a closer look and found that the floating fish had all been fried.

“Yay, the grilled fish is done!”

“Paimon, quickly pick up the grilled fish with Klee, Klee wants to share it with brother and sister!”

Paimon: “......”

This is Klee's grilled fish?

It seems that,

Klee's way of grilling fish is to directly fry the fish!?

Moreover,

until now,

Paimon realized that although Klee was standing next to her, she was drenched, but Klee was clean and dry, and no splashes of water fell on her.

What's going on!?

Klee's luck is too scary!?

For a while,

Paimon was a little stunned, her little brain was spinning and she couldn't turn it around.
