"Considering that Miss Fu Hua helped capture the Abyss Mage and participated in resolving the Tevyat incident, we will not pursue the matter further."

"Thank you so much," Chen Luo said, bowing again.

Although Chen Luo felt that even Barbatos himself had no objections, it was ultimately the Herrscher of Knowledge caused the trouble.

Which parent can still feel justified after their child has caused trouble?

"Oh, right, but where is Fu Hua?"

"Solitary confinement," Qin said.

"... Then what about that Klee you were talking about earlier, Qin Acting Grand Master Jean..." Chen Luo asked cautiously.

"That's a knight from the Knights of Favonius, Spark Knight, but she's still a minor. She likes to play with things like bombs, and I don't know why she's with Miss Fu Hua. She's staying obediently in the confinement room now," Please reply.

The Herrscher of Knowledge and Fu Hua are indeed a bit of a headache, but the good news is that they can obediently go to the confinement room.

"It's terrible, Commander! According to the knights guarding the solitary confinement cell, Fu Hua and Klee have escaped!" a knight Chen Luo didn't recognize ran in and said.

"..."

Okay, I take back what I said earlier.

Chapter 179 Jean: You want to learn from Klee how to make Jumpy Dumpty?!

"Klee... how could she have run away? She's been locked up so many times before and never ran away. And how did they escape?" Jean was completely baffled.

Although Klee is quite destructive, she at least knows that making mistakes will get her locked up in the solitary confinement room, and she will obediently be locked up there.

However, for some reason, they managed to escape today, and they even succeeded in escaping. Moreover, according to the knight who delivered the message, the door to the solitary confinement cell was not damaged by the explosion.

In fact, if it weren't for the sudden silence in the solitary confinement room, the man wouldn't have noticed that the two had escaped.

"..." Chen Luo, standing to the side, was too embarrassed to say anything at this moment.

Chen Luo always felt that the Herrscher of Knowledge might have corrupted Klee.

After all, that is the Herrscher of Knowledge.

"Then, Acting Grand Master Jean, what should we do now?" Chen Luo asked helplessly.

"Sigh, let them go. You can take Miss Fu Hua back later. After all, as a meritorious person, she shouldn't be locked up in the confinement room forever for making a small mistake."

"As for Klee, once we find her, let's lock her up for another day," Acting Grand Master Jean said in a serious tone, words that terrified Klee.

The entire Knights of Knights of Favonius actually took good care of Klee, especially Acting Grand Master Jean.

Otherwise, given Klee's destructive power—setting fires to mountains, setting off cannons in the city, and injuring people with bombs—she would have been imprisoned long ago. How could she only be kept in solitary confinement?

Klee's bombs are indeed powerful, helping the Knights of Favonius eliminate Hilichurl and the like, making her a meritorious contributor and a skilled worker.

Moreover, it is still possible to distinguish between intentional mistakes and unintentional slips of the zither.

"Alright then," Chen Luo nodded.

Chen Luo felt a pang of sympathy for the Acting Grand Master Jean, but Chen Luo also felt that he wasn't much better off himself.

With Klee and Herrscher of Knowledge, you really can't be sure which one is more destructive.

Taking care of the child every day is actually quite difficult for Chen Luo, but thankfully, Herrscher of Knowledge at least knows how to take responsibility for the aftermath.

The Herrscher of Knowledge has altered your consciousness; now the Herrscher of Knowledge has not done anything wrong.

"Oh, by the way, the reason Chen Luo, was to discuss the issue of rewards. Mr. Chen Luo, you first retrieved the Lyre of Winds for Mondstadt, and then made great contributions to the peaceful resolution of the Tevyat incident. Both in terms of sentiment and reason, the Knights of Favonius should commend and reward you."

"However, due to the sensitivity of this matter and its unsuitability for public disclosure, apart from the honorary title of Honorary Knight, the other rewards will be distributed in the name of the Church and in my personal capacity."

"The Church's reward is a considerable amount of Mora, which can of course be exchanged for other rewards of equal value. As for the Knights of Favonius rewards that I personally distribute, you can choose for yourself."

"Simply put, it's not in the name of the Knights of Favonius, but in my own name, that I can grant you a not-too-excessive wish," Jean said, patting her chest.

"Sister Donburi!"

Well, of course, this can't be said out loud.

You'll get killed.

"I want to learn alchemy. This is my wish for the Knights of Favonius. As for the Church, I hope they can buy me an Alchemy Bench, an alchemy Alchemy Bench," Chen Luo said.

"Alchemy and Alchemy Bench? Buying an Alchemy Bench from the church shouldn't be a problem. After all, although it's relatively rare, it can be bought with Mora, and there should be some Mora left over. But learning alchemy..." Jean looked at Chen Luo with some difficulty.

"As for alchemy, the Knights of Favonius of Mondstadt must hold a very high position in the field, right?"

"Well, their status is indeed very high, but it's mainly due to the efforts of two alchemists, or rather, three," Jean said after a pause.

"One is Albedo, the investigation captain of the Knights of Favonius, and the other is Sucrose, Albedo's assistant. Lisa knows a little about alchemy, but she doesn't specialize in it. There is another one who is very accomplished in all aspects, namely Klee's mother, whom I just mentioned, but she went on an expedition with Captain Faruzan. So she is not included."

"But among the three mentioned above, Lisa, as you know, Albedo is currently in Dragonspine and doesn't have time to teach you alchemy. And Albedo's assistant, Sucrose, has some minor issues with her approach to alchemy..."

As they talked, Jean suddenly realized that the Mondstadt Knights of Favonius, who were famous for their alchemy, did not have any alchemical talents available at the moment.

"Ah, this..." Acting Grand Master Jean's series of statements basically cut off all of Chen Luo's channels for learning alchemy.

"If you really want to learn alchemy, Chen Luo, I can lend you some alchemy books to read, and Miss Sucrose can teach you. However, although Sucrose is a genius in alchemy, she is not very good at getting along with people, and her teaching ability is somewhat uncertain," Qin said to Chen Luo.

"In that case... wait a minute." Chen Luo was about to ask them for some alchemy books so he could teach himself, but he suddenly sensed a certain fluctuation and a message.

Chen Luo only needs to find a high-level textbook to master alchemy, and then he can study the rest on his own.

"Acting Grand Master Jean, wait a moment, I think I've found the two people who escaped." Chen Luo said as he opened the Bar Door.

"Klee, let me tell you, our Chen Luo is a genius, especially since he's a puppeteer. He's good at making all kinds of dolls, so naturally he can sew Dodoco. You can't go wrong with him for this little thing!" The Herrscher of Knowledge said proudly as she led a little girl out after Chen Luo opened the door.

"Alo, I've come to find you." Upon seeing Chen Luo, the Herrscher of Knowledge said cheerfully.

What Chen Luo just sensed was the bar opening request from the Herrscher of Knowledge.

The Herrscher of Knowledge was pleased, but Klee, who was brought by the Herrscher of Knowledge, suddenly panicked when she saw the decorations in front of her.

"I'm glad you came to see me, but could you explain why you were put in solitary confinement first?" Chen Luo asked, arms crossed.

"Hey, how did you find out so quickly?"

"How did you do that? Can you turn around for a moment..." Chen Luo said, pointing behind the Herrscher of Knowledge.

When Ji opened the Bar Door, she was facing Chen Luo, which is why they came out with their backs to Acting Grand Master Jean.

Klee seemed to have a premonition about the decor here, so she suddenly panicked a little, but the Herrscher of Knowledge had never actually been here before.

"Qin, Acting Grand Master Jean, I, I didn't mean to escape from the confinement room. It's just that Dodoco is injured." Klee nervously took out what she was clutching tightly in her hand.

"Ah, isn't this Qin? Long time no see. Hahaha..." When he saw Qin standing right behind him, even the Herrscher of Knowledge scratched his head a little embarrassedly.

After all, he had just been locked in a solitary confinement room and had just escaped. When the Herrscher of Knowledge appeared, he ended up in the Herrscher's office. It was bound to be a little awkward.

"A Luo, what's wrong with you? Why did you leave the door open in Acting Grand Master Jean's office? You scoundrel, are you trying to harm me?" Then the Herrscher of Knowledge pulled Chen Luo aside, looking at Chen Luo angrily.

"Ah, how can you blame me for this? Don't you know why I was in Acting Grand Master Jean's office? Wasn't it because you blew up the face of that Wind Statue of the Seven? Now you're asking me why I was in Acting Grand Master Jean's office? Wasn't it to take care of your funeral arrangements!"

It would have been better if Herrscher of Knowledge hadn't spoken; the moment they did, Chen Luo got angry.

"Ah, well, this is called an uncontrollable factor. How was I supposed to know that bomb would suddenly explode? But it's not a big problem. It just blackened the face of the Venti statue. Venti won't care." The Herrscher of Knowledge said with a somewhat embarrassed smile.

"Yes, that's right. Venti certainly won't care, but the Mondstadt people do. Luckily, we just peacefully resolved the Stormterror incident, otherwise it would have escalated into a diplomatic issue, do you believe it!?" Chen Luo rolled his eyes at the Herrscher of Knowledge.

"Sigh, okay, okay, it's my fault, alright? Anyway, things are already like this. Besides, I'm also locked up in solitary confinement, aren't I? Please, I'm the great hero who saved Mondstadt, and after saving Mondstadt I'm locked up in solitary confinement, it's so embarrassing, okay? I didn't even say anything. Besides, this time it really was an accident." The Herrscher of Knowledge was truly aggrieved this time, because she really didn't know that thing would explode.

"Fine, fine, what can I do?" Chen Luo sighed helplessly.

Since those Herrscher of Knowledge have already admitted their mistakes, what else can I do?

I can't bear to hit them.

I can't bring myself to scold them.

What a terrible thing to do.

Well, also, if a fight really breaks out, it's not certain who will beat whom.

We are all Herrscher of Knowledge, so we can't break their moves.

"I'll let you off this time since you had a valid reason for what happened. Remember next time, if there's anything urgent, don't just run off without a word, just tell me." On the other side, Acting Grand Master Jean treated Klee in the same way.

LOL, you can't even insult them.

Moreover, seeing Klee's heartbroken appearance, Acting Grand Master Jean couldn't bear it either.

Children have their own thoughts, and Jean, Acting Grand Master Jean has taken care of Klee for so long, naturally knows how important Dodoco is to Klee. Since it's about Dodoco, it's understandable.

A simple "this is the last time" can get away with many things, especially when it comes to children.

"Um, Chen Luo, do you know how to sew Dodoco, the doll that Klee is holding?" After criticizing Klee, the Acting Grand Master Jean looked at Chen Luo somewhat awkwardly.

After all, asking Chen Luo to repair a doll was indeed a bit of a joke.

"Dodoco a doll, Dodoco Klee's best friend," Klee corrected from the side.

"Yes, that's how it is." Acting Grand Master Jean nodded and then looked at Chen Luo.

The Acting Grand Master Jean was mainly worried that Chen Luo would look down on these children's toys and children's childhood fantasies.

To be honest, this is actually normal; there aren't that many adults who are willing to play with Klee.

"Acting Grand Master Jean, do you still remember how I introduced myself when we first met?" Chen Luo said, hands on his hips.

"A puppeteer who is traveling around studying...?" After thinking carefully, the Acting Grand Master Jean said with some doubt.

"That's right. I am Chen Luo, the master puppeteer! I am proficient in everything related to puppets, whether it's dolls, figurines, or statues!" Chen Luo said with great confidence.

Chen Luo's puppeteer skills are quite numerous, including various puppet-making techniques, such as doll making.

Sometimes dolls can play a very powerful role, such as murder dolls, curse dolls, cursed dolls, etc.

These are all branches of puppetry, and Chen Luo has mastered all of these skills by virtue of his Furniture Mastery. Furthermore, with the support of Chen Luo's puppetry talent—[Manipulation]—these puppetry-related skills all show signs of breaking through to mastery and becoming master skills.

Of course, it's just a sign.

"Um, Chen Luo, could you please help me sew up Dodoco's for Klee? If you could, that would be a huge help," Qin said to Chen Luo.

Originally, Chen Luo to present an award to the other party, but now she was asking him to help sew up the doll, which made Qin feel a little guilty.

"Well, of course." Chen Luo nodded decisively.

"Thank you, thank you, Chen Luo! Brother Chen Luo is a good person! The moment Klee saw you, she knew that Chen Luo must be a good person." Klee jumped up happily.

"Thank you for the compliment, Klee." Chen Luo smiled at Klee.

Hmm, wait a minute...

Klee...

Under 14 years old, loli, children, non-human, Mondstadt citizens...

Chen Luo took a moment to glance at all the achievements that increased favorability in his achievement list, and was surprised to find that Klee seemed to have increased favorability by every single achievement.

"Hey Klee, can we shake hands? After we shake hands, we'll be friends, and then I'll help you fix Dodoco." Chen Luo extended his hand to Klee.

"Okay." Klee nodded vigorously, then ran up to Chen Luo and stretched out her little hand.

Klee

22% off

Ah, this...

Oh my goodness, this discount is ridiculously high!

It's not that this discount is outrageous; Chen Luo has seen much more outrageous discounts before. But this is Chen Luo's first time meeting Klee.

"Acting Grand Master Jean, I suddenly have a suggestion. I wonder if you would agree?" Chen Luo suddenly raised his head and looked at Acting Grand Master Jean.

"Uh, you go ahead," the Acting Grand Master Jean said after a pause.

"Acting Grand Master Jean, how about you let me borrow some alchemy books so I don't have to find a teacher for me? If you really need to find one, could you have Klee teach me how to make bombs?" Chen Luo said, pointing at Klee.

"Brother Chen Luo, do you want to learn how to make bombs? Of course you can! You help Klee fix Dodoco, and I'll teach Chen Luo how to make bombs!" For some reason, Klee seemed more excited than Chen Luo.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

"..." Chen Luo and Klee were both very interested in each other, but only the Acting Grand Master Jean, froze after hearing Chen Luo's words.

Um?
