Eula: My House Is Pretty Spacious... How About You...

However, Chen Luo was not a member of the Knights of Favonius, nor even a citizen of Mondstadt, so Jean could not command him from any angle.

So...

[Ding! You have a new request!]

[Lyre of Winds]: Harp, the acting Grand Master of the Knights of Favonius in Mondstadt City, hopes that you can charge the Lyre of Winds to avoid wasting too much of Mondstadt City's manpower and resources.

Reward: 100 Primogem

Difficulty: Two stars

"Okay, stop looking at me like that." Feeling Qin's awkward gaze, as if she wanted to ask but couldn't bring herself to say it, Chen Luo took a step back.

However, since the other party has already issued the request, there's no reason not to accept it.

"Well, actually..." Venti suddenly stood up.

Ah, Venti couldn't hold back any longer.

Venti decided to reveal herself.

Torn between the Wind God's Liquor and the Lyre of Winds, Venti chose a third option: to recharge it himself.

If you're saying that Anemo Archon Barbatos, can't even charge his Lyre of Winds, that's impossible. Venti just doesn't want to reveal his identity so soon.

Now we have no choice but to expose it.

Wind God's Liquor, my Wind God's Liquor.

Since it's going to be exposed sooner or later anyway, we should still give it our all for the sake of the Wind God's Liquor.

"Shut up. I'll handle this." Before Venti could even finish speaking, Chen Luo stopped her.

Just kidding, if you complete this task, do you still want my reward?

"Oh." Venti obediently shut her mouth.

It seems Chen Luo has a solution.

"Lord Diluc." Silence looked at Diluc.

"What's wrong?"

"I heard that you, Lord Diluc, bought over 2,000 fakes to collect a sealed vial containing the aura of the Anemo Archon. So, would witnessing an item personally blessed by Anemo Archon Lyre of Winds compensate for the loss of booking the entire venue tonight?" Chen Luo asked Diluc.

"Hmm? Although I never intended to charge you for booking the entire venue, since you've put it that way, I'm naturally willing to meet you," Diluc said after a moment's thought.

The important matter of saving Mondstadt is being discussed now, Diluc naturally doesn't want to bother with the money for renting out the entire tavern.

Anyway, there are no customers.

"Now, everyone, please take a good look. This is Mora that was blessed by the Anemo Archon not long ago and contains the Anemo Archon's blessing and Anemo Archon!" Chen Luo solemnly took out a Mora from his backpack.

"Wait, what's that...?" Venti's mouth dropped open as she looked at the Mora that Chen Luo had pulled out.

Wasn't that the wine money he gave Chen Luo on the first day they met, representing the last bit of wealth he had left?

That being said, I did indeed place a blessing and a wisp of the Anemo Archon's aura on it...

"One Mora? Or the smallest denomination Mora? It sounds completely unrelated to the blessing of the Anemo Archon, but the aura on it is indeed sacred enough." Diluc looked at the one Mora and fell into deep thought.

Since Diluc knew that the more than 2,000 sealed vials of Anemo Archon Aura he received were fakes, he could naturally also know what the real thing was, and the one in Chen Luo's hand was undoubtedly the real thing.

"Such a precious thing... are we really going to use it to power up the Lyre of Winds?" Qin opened her mouth and asked.

Jean's father was the Archbishop of Mondstadt Cathedral, so he was naturally quite familiar with the blessing of the Anemo Archon, which is why Jean could see how precious that Mora was.

Honestly, Jyn thought this Mora was worth far more than those Tevyat tears... no, much more precious.

"No, don't worry about it. Anyway, this thing won't be worth anything in a couple of days," Chen Luo said, shaking his head.

After all, once Venti's identity is revealed, there probably won't be any suckers willing to buy this Mora, right?

Chapter 158 Eula: My house is quite big, why don't you...

"Thank you, Mr. Chen Luo, for your contributions to Mondstadt. Not only did you retrieve the Lyre of Winds stolen by the Fatui, but you also made such a great sacrifice to save Tevyat. On behalf of the Knights of Favonius, I express my gratitude to you." Jean was deeply moved as she looked at Chen Luo's selfless dedication.

"So, do I get a discount when I buy things?" Chen Luo couldn't help but ask the crucial question.

"Huh?" Qin was taken aback.

Qin didn't understand what Chen Luo was saying.

"Well, we heard that Honorary Knight of the Knights of Favonius get a small discount when they buy things," Paimon explained.

"Is that so? Well, with your contributions, Mr. Chen Luo, obtaining the title of Honorary Knight of the Knights of Favonius after truly resolving the Tevyat incident would be extremely easy," Qin said immediately after a moment's thought.

Even if Tevyat isn't ultimately saved, Chen Luo's achievement of retrieving the Lyre of Winds alone gives him a 50% chance of becoming Honorary Knight.

After all, he's Honorary Knight, not a real knight.

"No need for that, I was just joking. If you really want to make it up to her, just give the credit to Eula. As for being a 'tool', Ying is enough." Chen Luo quickly shook his head.

The title of Honorary Knight is completely useless to Chen Luo.

Although having the title of Honorary Knight might make it easier to receive requests from Mondstadt citizens, Chen Luo would rather find a way to improve his puppeteer skills than go out and take care of these Mondstadt giant babies.

An ordinary Mondstadt citizen's request only earns 10 Primogem. While 10 Primogem is indeed a valuable amount, Chen Luo would prefer to take on more meaningful requests if possible.

For example, helping Bronya rescue Seele.

"Put the credit on Eula... Okay, I understand." Acting Grand Master Jean looked at Chen Luo, then glanced at Eula, whose eyes were somewhat evasive, smiled, and nodded directly.

Although Eula's family represents Eula herself, her reputation in Mondstadt City is not high, but rather quite bad.

However, Eula had good relationships with other people in the upper echelons of the Knights of Favonius, such as Jean.

Of course, besides Amber being overly helpful, Acting Grand Master Jean's own excellent personality is also a factor.

"However, since you're willing to give all the credit to Eula, you must understand Eula current predicament. So, the best outcome for Eula isn't to be the protagonist in saving Stormterror, but rather an important supporting character." Jean paused for a moment before continuing.

"Okay, okay. Stop talking to me about this, I'll do whatever you say."

To be honest, Chen Luo didn't understand the intricacies of the workplace and officialdom. His intelligence and knowledge could only ensure that he wouldn't be deceived or cause trouble, but it couldn't guarantee that he would thrive.

Under the collective gaze of everyone, Chen Luo placed the Mora, which had been blessed by the Anemo Archon, onto the Lyre of Winds.

Since Mora was personally blessed by the Anemo Archon, it naturally contained a more intense Wind Element than the Tear of Tevyat, so the Lyre of Winds's energy level was instantly full.

Although to outsiders it might just seem like it's a bit brighter, Chen Luo, who wields the Lyre of Winds is proficient in its use, can naturally understand Lyre of Winds specifics.

However, as the strings of the Lyre of Winds reached their full charge, the Mora in Chen Luo's hand became unremarkable.

This is what Mora is like after exhausting the blessings of the Anemo Archon.

"Thank you once again, Traveler, for your contributions to Mondstadt." Jean said, looking at the Mora, which seemed unremarkable after losing the blessing of the Anemo Archon.

For such a sacred object, to completely strip it of its color would be a heinous crime, but of course, given the urgency of the situation, it is indeed a helpless measure.

"This is truly an eye-opener. The blessings bestowed by Lord Anemo Archon Barbatos God are not so rare as to be nonexistent. However, the blessing bestowed upon Mora is currently the only one known. This is certainly enough to offset the debt from booking the entire venue. And I wonder if you would be interested in selling this Mora to me? Name your price." Diluc paused for a moment before speaking.

In fact, Diluc said the second half of this sentence not only because of the rarity of the Mora, but also because he wanted to make amends to Chen Luo.

After all, putting everything else aside, this Mora is indeed precious, and the difference in price between Mora with and without the blessing of Anemo Archon, and with and without the aura of the Anemo Archon, is simply enormous.

This is a level of heartache that even Diluc would feel.

After all, the Anemo Archon God has indeed sent out very few blessings.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

Chen Luo's brow furrowed when he saw the request.

One Mora can be sold for 50 Primogem, plus more Mora?

"Wow, can this Mora really fetch a lot of money?" Venti was slightly surprised.

"Of course, although he has lost Anemo Archon blessing and aura of the Anemo Archon, everyone here has witnessed Mora in his true form. Of course, his collectible value is even greater than his practical value," Diluc nodded.

"Then, can I get a share after it's sold?" Venti tilted her head and looked at Chen Luo.

"Forget it, I won't sell it. Although it has lost the blessing and aura of Anemo Archon God, it was still the first Mora given to me by my first friend." Chen Luo shook his head and put the Mora into his Storage Space.

Yes, the first friend in my friend list.

Although you can earn a lot of Mora in addition to completing the commission, to be honest, the commemorative significance of this Mora is much greater than that of 50 Primogem.

This is a precious testament to Chen Luo taking his first step Traveler.

At the same time, it is undeniable that the Vision did help Chen Luo a lot in the early stages.

And they're helping now.

"Hmm, Alo, what you said really touched me," Venti said with a sigh.

"What are you so moved about? By the way, Diluc, the money for booking the whole place today has been paid, but this guy should pay for the dozens of bottles of alcohol he drank." Chen Luo said, pointing at the heartless Venti.

"Huh?! Alo, you can't do this!" Venti's expression instantly turned horrified.

You used the Mora I gave you to pay off all your debts, but you didn't forgive me.

That's so unfair.

"Sigh, after all, it was when I was making the dolls that I overheard a bard say, 'The Angel's Share is the best tavern ever,'" Chen Luo said helplessly, shrugging his shoulders.

You really don't think I was deaf when I was making the dolls, do you?

It's not that you can't say these things, but can't you speak a little quieter and keep it from me?

"Uh, I'm sorry, I was wrong," Venti immediately admitted her mistake.

Venti didn't expect Chen Luo to be able to hear her whispering.

To be fair, although the quality of drinks at Angel's Share Bar isn't as high as at Zero Bar, the portions are generous and filling.

Well, it's undeniable that Zero Bar are free.

"Okay, I understand." Diluc nodded.

"No way... what proper bard saves money?" Venti wailed.

"Ahem, alright, alright, just kidding. You can keep the Lyre of Winds." Chen Luo returned the Lyre of Winds to Venti.

If Venti were to pay off her own alcohol debt, Venti might never be able to do so in her lifetime.

As for the Lyre of Winds, although Chen Luo can indeed use it, to be honest, Chen Luo definitely can't play it as well as Venti.

After all, the title of the best bard in all of Teyvat is well-deserved.

Even if you're a pig, if you've listened to music for thousands of years, you'll be able to sing.

Chen Luo can use the Lyre of Winds, but only to a proficient level. Moreover, since Chen Luo doesn't know any songs, Chen Luo can only improvise.

Therefore, being Furniture Mastery doesn't mean you have everything. You may have expert-level knowledge, but if you don't have the sheet music, that won't work.

Tevyat doesn't give face to just anyone who plays the Lyre of Winds.

"So, all that's left is to summon Tevyat?" Lisa asked, holding a glass of wine she'd somehow acquired.

Lisa never expected that she, an Archmage, would finally make the effort to come here, only to end up just being a bystander.

But this is fine too; if you can lie down, then lie down.

Actually, Lisa's laziness isn't simply due to laziness, but rather because Lisa constellation is an hourglass. The faster it moves, the faster the sand slips away, and the best way to prevent the sand from flowing away is to lie flat.

"I don't think it will work." Chen Luo suddenly shook his head.

"What's wrong?" Qin asked.

"It's already dark. If it gets too late, it will be more difficult to find the Stormterror. If Jean and Lisa could have come earlier, it would have been fine during dusk, but now it's late and the sun has already set," Chen Luo said after glancing at the time on his talent panel.

"This..." Jean couldn't help but look at Venti.

"Alo is right. It's not the right time to summon Tevyat with the Lyre of Winds. The nature of the wind changes slightly depending on the time and place. The wind is inherently fluid, so to achieve the best effect, we need the right time, place, and people." Venti nodded.

"The right time refers to the timing, the best time to summon Tevyat is between 8 and 11 a. m., or between 3 and 6 p. m. The right place refers to the location; it's best to choose a suitable spot. Sea breezes or winds from high places can carry the poet's song further. If the air is dry, stuffy, and oppressive, not only the poet, but even the dragons would be angry, wouldn't they?"

"We don't need to worry about the people. With me, the best bard in Teyvat, here, the people problem can be solved," Venti said with considerable pride.

"Eight to eleven in the morning, and preferably with a sea breeze and a breeze from high places, right..." Qin paused for a moment and began to think about the best location.
