The original god of the Jyota Jinchūriki

Chapter 53: Kaia's Arrival

"Mr. Schubert, please be patient. As long as we implement our plan right now, we, the Fatui, will treat this guest from Liyue well."

"Hmph, that's better. Let's start implementing the plan. A few days won't be a big deal."

Schubert agreed to the debt collector's suggestion with a gloomy face. The debt collector's face lit up with joy. It seemed that the task that the lady had asked him to find a way to cause chaos in Mondstadt could be accomplished. Now they, the Fatui, only needed to cause trouble everywhere under the banner of Lawrence.

But before that, he had to find a way to take Schubert, the head of the Lawrence family, and escape from this Liyue boy, otherwise everything would be in vain.

Under the mask, the debt collector's face was a little solemn. He had already seen Ruo Jin's strength just now. He was definitely no match for him in a one-on-one fight. If he wanted to get out, he would have to use some tricks. Thinking about how to escape, the debt collector looked at Eula who was fighting with the guards on the side.

The guards around Eula all knew that Eula was from the Lawrence family and was Schubert's niece, so the battle between them and Eula was completely different from the fatal battle with Ruojin. It was more like a group of guards feeding Eula with swords than a battle.

These guards were mainly focused on defense. More than a dozen guards didn't even touch the corner of Eula's clothes for such a long time. However, the tacit cooperation between them prevented Eula from breaking out without using powerful moves, and she could only be trapped.

"Mr. Schubert, for your safety, what I'm going to do next will be very offensive."

Under Schubert's confused eyes, the debt collector said something and disappeared behind Schubert. When he appeared again, he was already behind Eula with a short blade in his hand.

Schubert, who was always observing the battle situation, saw the debt collector appear behind Eula. He immediately understood what the debt collector meant by his words just now. This also made Schubert determined to eradicate the Fatui after the glory of the Lawrence family was restored.

"Ms. Eula, please take a nap first."

Eula, whose attention was focused on the guards around her, did not notice that the debt collector had quietly come behind her. By the time she reacted, the debt collector's hand had already swung towards her neck.

Oh no, if she gets hit she will definitely pass out. Damn it, move your body quickly. Eula raised her sword and thought about chopping off the debt collector's hand, but the two-handed sword like the sacrificial greatsword is not as flexible as other weapons. Eula's body's reaction speed cannot keep up with her thinking, and she can only watch the Fatui's hand fall on her neck.

The sound of hard objects colliding was heard, and then Eula felt that the sacrificial sword seemed to have cut off something. She turned around and saw that the debt collector's arm had been chopped off by her and fell to the ground, and a thin layer of rock elemental shield was flashing on her body.

"You sneak attack someone in front of me who possesses the Eye of the Rock Elemental God. You really look down on me."

"I'm not very good at shield-type moves, but I can still defend against your hands."

Ruo Jin looked at the debt collector who was covering his wound as if he was an idiot. He had no idea where this debt collector got his confidence from. At this moment, the debt collector had already cursed the person in charge of collecting intelligence in his heart, even to his ancestors.

If he could go back alive, he would drag the person who was responsible for collecting intelligence to Ruo Jin and ask him, "Is this what you call not being good at shield moves?" His palm was about to crack under this slap, and the more tragic thing was that one of his hands was chopped off by the knight named Eula.

"Do you really want to make enemies with us Fatui? The lady who holds the eighth seat of the Fatui executive has already arrived in Mondstadt. As long as I stay in the Lawrence clan for a long time, the Fatui around Lawrence will tell the lady about this."

"You can't bear the wrath of your ladyship. When the time comes, hehe."

Seeing that the plan to kidnap Eula and escape had failed, the guards around him had given up besieging Eula and instead stared at him hungrily. The debt collector had no choice but to bring the lady out and try to intimidate Ruo Jin with the lady's notoriety.

Seeing that there was no panic on Ruojin's face, the debt collector realized that if he wanted to get out alive today, he might need to change his approach. If the hard way didn't work, he could only try the soft way.

"My friend, whatever conditions the Knights promised you, I, the Fatui, will give you double as long as you don't interfere in this matter."

Ruo Jin's eyes lit up, and he wanted to tease the debt collector, so he pretended to be very excited and said, "The Knights introduced an 18-year-old beautiful knight to me as my girlfriend."

Damn it, those guys from the Knights deserve to die, he doesn’t even have an 18-year-old girlfriend, the debt collector gritted his teeth and shouted loudly with a painful look on his face.

"Okay! No problem, I'll introduce you to a 36-year-old lady from the hidden mirror!"

Ruo Jin was silent for a while, and the next second he raised the sword in his hand and slashed forward.

"Spare his life!"

The sudden sound made the debt collector facing the Sword of No Work feel his heart skip a beat. He suddenly had a bad premonition, and a chill crept up his back. He turned his head to look at the entrance of Lawrence's territory, and saw Kaia walking in with a smile on his face and several Knights of Favonius.

"The Knights of Favonius just discovered a group of Fatui smuggling weapons and equipment near the Lawrence clan. They have now been imprisoned."

"Captain of the debt collectors, you don't want your team members to be left without food or water in prison, do you?"

"Captain Kaia of the Knights of Favonius, even if we, the Fatui, become prisoners, you must abide by the treaty signed by the Seven Nations to treat prisoners well and not mistreat them."

The debt collector covered his broken arm with one hand and stared at Kaiya fiercely. His teammates had been with him through thick and thin for so many years. Even if he died, he didn't want his teammates to be abused.

"Haha, it's just a joke. Dear Captain of the Debt Collectors, as long as you answer our questions honestly, we, the Knights of Favonius, will not violate the treaty."

"Of course, if you don't cooperate, then I don't know who will be charged with the crime of privately trading a large amount of equipment and weapons."

Kaia looked at the debt collector and Schubert with a smile. He was busy slacking off in the office, but for some reason, Rosalia suddenly found him and asked him to take the Knights of Favonius to investigate the Lawrence family. Knowing the background of this nun, Kaia did not refuse this credit that was delivered to his doorstep.

Kaia, who had captured a dozen Fatui around the Lawrence family, originally did not want to deal with the people of the Lawrence family. However, he did not expect to hear the sound of fighting in the Lawrence clan territory. Curious Kaia left a team of Favonius Knights to blockade the Lawrence clan territory, and then he took a few Favonius Knights deep into the Lawrence clan territory.

The result was just as he expected, he really caught a big fish, and it seemed that his vacation, his bonus, and his good life would be back soon.

"Then Mr. Schubert, please go to the Knights of Favonius and explain what happened. The coffee in the Knights of Favonius tastes pretty good."

"Hmph, you have no right to question me. You have trespassed into my Lawrence clan's territory, so just wait for your trial!"

"Haha, of course I won't ask you anything. This kind of thing should be left to professionals."

Kaeya clapped his hands, and the Knight of Favonius behind him immediately stepped forward to control Schubert. As for the trial that Schubert clamored for, Kaeya didn't take it seriously at all. As smart as he was, Kaeya had already seen through the intentions of the Lawrence family along the way. It was a question whether the members of the Lawrence family, except Eula, could continue to stay in Mond.

"Ruojin, thank you very much for your help. When I finish what I'm doing, why don't we have a drink together?"

"In that case, I will obey your command respectfully."
