Genshin Impact, My Villain System Is a Bit Abnormal

"Commander Qin, I'm here."

Jiang Ning arrived at the Knights of the West early the next morning.

The office was quiet. Qin was still working on paperwork when she heard a sound. She looked up, somewhat bewildered, and was surprised to see Jiang Ning.

"Jiang Ning? What brings you all the way from Liyue? You didn't even tell me?"

Jiang Ning said, "Let's come to Mondstadt to pick some things; they'll be useful."

Qin said, "What do you need? I'll send someone over immediately..."

It's important to know that news from Liyue spreads very quickly; at least Mondstadt already knows that Jiang Ning's identity is no longer what it used to be.

I thought my previous status was high enough: the junior brother of the Seven Stars' chief secretary, the disciple of the immortals, and close ties with Yuheng and Tianquan among the Seven Stars of Liyue.

But unexpectedly, there's always someone better. Now he's become the successor of the Geo God? In a few years, he might even become the Geo God himself.

So it's no wonder Qin acted this way.

"No need, these are all minor matters. Besides, your Knights Order is a bit short-handed, isn't it?"

Jiang Ning said.

"Well, all right then."

Qin blushed a little when the child from Jiangning pointed it out.

Jiang Ning continued, "Also, this time, Sister Ningguang asked me to ask you if we could add some manpower to protect the trade routes in Mondstadt. The damage rate of the goods transported these past few times has been a bit too high."

Qin said, "Well... let's try our best."

Seeing Qin's grim expression, Jiang Ning sighed inwardly, "Qin, although we shouldn't interfere in other countries' politics, as a friend, I really have to advise you: can't you handle every little thing? What about those knights below? A bunch of old hands, are they all just sitting around doing nothing?"

Qin wanted to refute, but found that she had no point in refuting it, because what Jiang Ning said was true.

"I'm worried you might collapse one day when you're on a test. Oh well, that's Mondstadt's business... By the way, there's something I want to ask you about Yura. What's wrong with Lawrence? It feels like everyone's not just avoiding him anymore, they're openly trying to get rid of him?"

Qin said, "You already know... I thought this matter could be resolved quickly, so I was thinking of temporarily transferring Yura away, but I didn't expect some things to go wrong... Oh well, I'll just tell you, since I can't hide it from you anymore."

"Some time ago, Kaiya discovered that the Lawrence family, Yura's uncle, Schubert Lawrence, wanted to collude with the Fools to overthrow Mondstadt's regime."

"So they found Schubert and got the map of Mondstadt's defenses from him... although that map was made by Kaeya to fool them."

"I had planned to resolve this quietly, since Yura's position in Mondstadt is already awkward enough..."

"Then, at night, after all the Fools had entered our designated ambush point, we caught them red-handed and wiped them all out in one fell swoop."

"Unfortunately, something unexpected happened. The lightning and fire elements collided and exploded, causing varying degrees of damage to many buildings in that area."

"Most importantly, the Knights of Favonius have also suffered a lot of casualties. As a result, everyone is getting increasingly dissatisfied. Moreover, the Fools have only managed to catch a few small fry, so they can only vent their anger on Lawrence."

"Then, things came to light. You know, people are already prejudiced against the Lawrence family, so their malice turned into action."

"There's nothing we can do. All the Lawrences involved in the leak are in jail and awaiting trial. As for those Lawrences who are similar to Yura and just want to live an ordinary life... they have no choice but to prepare to leave Mondstadt and live in the countryside."

"I see..." Jiang Ning said thoughtfully.

He even felt that if it weren't for him, the butterfly that flapped its wings, perhaps Yura wouldn't have come to Liyue? And instead, she would have stayed in Mondstadt, and then with Ying's intervention, she might have directly sacrificed her own family for the greater good, thus changing her reputation in Mondstadt in one fell swoop.

He even distanced himself from the Lawrence family and became a popular surfer.

Jiang Ning was extremely familiar with the game's mechanics.

It's impossible to betray one's own family like this, otherwise the residents of Mondstadt won't like Yura, right?

Qin said, "So...you should go back and try to persuade Yura. If that doesn't work, I'll give her some more time off and take her out to relax."

Qin is at a loss and is trying to come up with a solution with Lisa.

"Alright..." Jiang Ning nodded.

[Host, kill them all, kill them all! Weren't you very brave back in Qingquan Town?]

The system encouraged it.

"Shut up, how are we going to bring them back if we kill them all..."

Jiang Ning said silently.

Given the current situation, Heulia's words, and Yura's increased favorability, Jiang Ning is having second thoughts again.

However, poaching someone else's wife is secondary; the main goal is to win her back.

"Then I'll be going now. Take care and get some rest, Commander Qin."

Jiang Ning waved his hand.

"Yes, may the wind god protect you."

…………

"Have you found out everything?"

Back at Yura's house, the Mondstadt trio of four remained.

Jiang Ning said, "Then let's share what we've seen and heard."

Barbara's and Jiang Ning's reports are basically the same, while Amber's side is mostly filled with opinions from bystanders.

“Well, Diona, Bennett, and Fischl think Yura is innocent and support her, as does Sarah. But most of the others… say Yura is an accomplice.”

Amber was fuming.

"These people have really gone too far."

"The names you mentioned..." Jiang Ning asked, puzzled.

"Oh, Diona is the head bartender at Cat's Tail Tavern. She's really good. I think you met her last time, but you didn't talk much."

“Bennett and Fischl are adventurers from the Adventurers' Guild, and also our friends…”

"Hmm, I think I understand..."

Jiang Ning said.

Yura crossed her arms, her expression complicated: "The Lawrence family is now completely deserted. It's said that many have moved away, and a large portion of them are in prison."

“Those are all Yura’s relatives, right? Yura, if you’re sad, we’ll take you out for a walk.”

"No need, don't worry, I'm not that fragile."

Yura declined Barbara's offer.

"I'm just angry, angry at those clansmen who don't understand the situation. Honestly, it's already difficult enough to move an inch in Mondstadt, and now they're making things even more difficult for me."

"Then... what should we do now? Does the troupe leader have any good ideas?"

Amber was also somewhat at a loss.

"It is said that the higher-ups of the Knights also have some opinions about Yura."

Barbara sighed.

Although her older sister was the acting leader, and Kaeya and Lisa were on Yura's side, her sister wasn't the only high-ranking member of the Knights Order.

Yura understood this principle, and her eyes reddened as she felt that all her efforts over the years had been in vain.

This situation is quite normal. Back when I became a member of the Knights of Favonius, and even later a member of the guerrilla squad, the Wave Knights, everyone had their complaints.

If it weren't for Qin and the Grand Master's protection, this would have been impossible. Now that this has happened again, and with the Grand Master away, Qin is already overwhelmed trying to deal with everything on her own.

"It can only be said that this time, Commander Qin's good intentions backfired."

Jiang Ning said.

I didn't want Yura to get involved in order to protect her, but it backfired.

Who would have thought that in order to escape, the Fools would overload their lightning and fire, killing many of their fellow Fools, just so that a few could escape?

"Then, how about we go find Schubert and those fools in prison and make them say that Yura is innocent?"

Amber was desperate and resorting to any means necessary.

"You're overthinking it. Even if those Fools are telling the truth, do you think that given Mondstadt's attitude towards the Lawrence family, they'll just think Yura is a spy they sent."

Jiang Ning said.

"What should we do then..."

Amber was discouraged.

Jiang Ning said, "Let's wait for Commander Qin and the others. Right now, everything Yura does is wrong."

“Then we’ll just have to wait and see…” Amber said.

"Wait, shall we go find Lord Barbatos?"

Barbara suddenly said.

Amber's eyes lit up: "That's right, if we go to find Lord Barbatos..."

Wendy is easy to find; just go to Angel's Gift.

Jiang Ning said, "We can give it a try, but don't have too high hopes."

Mondstadt values ​​freedom, so Wendy basically doesn't get involved in anything. Do you really expect Wendy to be doing something to vindicate Yura?

When the Mondstadt people are unwilling to accept Yura, isn't this very act of speaking out a form of unfreedom?

Unless Yura can change her reputation in Mondstadt, and do so in a dramatic way, Venti will not go along with it and allow the rest of the people to reluctantly accept Yura.

But now, in the eyes of those Mondstadt people, Yura is almost inextricably linked to the Fools and Lawrence.

If there had been any separation, the Lawrence people who wanted to live a good life wouldn't have been driven out of Mondstadt.

However, they still arrived at the angel's gift.

Upon seeing Jiang Ning and the others arrive, Diluc understood what was happening and pointed upstairs, saying:

"That drunken poet is upstairs."

After Amber and the others thanked them, they couldn't wait to go upstairs.

Jiang Ning then moved closer to Diluc and said:

“Lord Diluc, you already know that Venti is Barbatos, why do you still call him that?”

Diluc snorted: "Have you ever seen a wind god who owes money for drinks but insists on paying with singing, and then keeps coming over to my place to swindle more drinks?"
