“Di O Ni So Si…”

Ke Qing's lips twitched.

I'm sure of it now, they really are mortal enemies.

Chapter 46 Fooling Tricks

If a banker becomes a harmful thug, all his assets must be confiscated and handed over to the public before he is hung on a lamppost.

If you don't have a legitimate reason and don't know how to confiscate, then you should become a robber.

——— Dionysus, the Fool.

The debt collector, wielding a rock sword, sprinted at high speed, leaping and tumbling, and dove over the heads of the Fool soldiers with one hand, thus avoiding the attack.

He stretched out his other arm, and rock spikes burst from the ground, blasting through the rickshaw.

A young figure jumped out, stood firmly on the roadside, and sweat beaded on his forehead.

Did the Queen send someone to get rid of me beforehand... or was it just Dionysus's eccentric behavior?

Is the Empress giving him too many privileges?

He tried to activate the power of the Evil Eye, only to find that the item that should have been worn on his chest was already in the hands of the enemy.

Fools kept emerging from the ambush all around.

Pantalone gritted her teeth and finally chose to raise her hands.

A wise man doesn't suffer a loss he can avoid.

But unexpectedly, the debt collector in front of him didn't seem to have any intention of giving him a chance.

A blow to the head knocked him unconscious.

The story, embellished by Tatiana, ultimately becomes a midnight battle between Qin Ye and a wealthy man, with Qin Ye ultimately overwhelming the wealthy man with his superior strength.

Incidentally, amidst the girl's dramatic narration and adoring gaze, Qin Ye's strength was thoroughly proclaimed.

Ke Qing narrowed her eyes.

No wonder the two of them were initially being insincere...

Is Qin Ye choosing the Northern Bank in Liyue as the meeting place because he wants us to be his bodyguards for free?

What if we start fighting while we're chatting?

It's amazing that he can still calmly listen to stories from the past...

“I was really immature in the past, and I caused a lot of trouble for my colleagues and others. I often use that failure to spur myself on. Yes, to spur myself on.”

The tone suddenly became more forceful, and Pantalone abruptly stood up from his chair.

The guards around them, including Ke Qingyelan, instinctively reached for their weapons.

"I'll take my leave now."

The man looked at Qin Ye, who looked quite relaxed, and handed him a box.

"Hehe, I hope everything goes well for you... Dionysus."

Faced with the slightly cold voice, Qin Ye smiled and waved his hand: "See you in winter."

Pantalone left the Northern Bank without looking back.

"call..."

Ke Qing breathed a sigh of relief, but her gaze fell on the small box that the two were passing between them.

What is this thing?

Qin Ye waved to Ye Lan.

"What?"

Ye Lan's psychological trauma from being tricked once before has not completely disappeared.

The box was placed in the other person's hands: "I got your bracelet back for you. I promised you a long time ago."

The problem is...

I've already gambled away my other bracelet to Ningguang.

I was originally thinking that out of sight, out of mind.

But Qin Ye had anticipated this.

"I know about your bet with Tianquanxing. I wouldn't have given it to you if you two hadn't made the bet."

"..."

I'm truly speechless...

-

Pantalone stepped out of the North Bank's doors, his gaze deep and thoughtful.

"Sir, did the conversation go smoothly?"

"Of course, everything went incredibly smoothly."

He turned to look at the old man who had followed him for over a decade, patted him on the shoulder, and everything was understood without words.

He looked up at the azure sky, his breathing calm.

You always pull this stunt every time we meet. Your bad habit of insulting people hasn't changed, Dionysus.

Memories trace back to the past.

-

He gradually awoke from the blow that had knocked him unconscious, and before him stood Qin Ye, who was silently reading a book.

He suddenly sat up in bed and found that there were only the two of them in the spacious study.

The Evil Eye has been returned to him.

"Oh, you're awake." Qin Ye smiled brightly, seemingly very pleased with his awakening.

"Dionysus...you bastard..."

"What's wrong?" The other person blinked innocently.

"I found you lying in the snow while I was out on patrol, so I brought you back to recuperate. Fortunately, the person who attacked you didn't hit you too hard, and you woke up after lying down for a short time. It was a stroke of luck amidst misfortune."

"...Don't pretend to be a good person here."

"Haha, is this how the esteemed Lord Pantalone speaks to his savior?"

The rich man clenched his fist tightly, only to see the other person slowly turn around and look for something.

What do you think this is?

Qin Ye picked up a fragment resembling amber from the table; it contained traces of familiar power.

Men know this best.

This was Morax's divine power, a power he could never forget for several lifetimes.

Pantalone fell silent.

"I'm telling you, you don't think that dodging the Liyue Sept's trap means you've fooled Morax, do you?"

"..."

"When the time comes, you will really drag the two gods, the foolish executors, and the people of both countries into it. In the end, you will only die in vain, because everything you did was within their expectations."

Qin Ye's youthful face broke into a wider smile: "Of course, it could also be worse than death."

Now Pantalone finally understands the whole story.

It wasn't that everything went smoothly, nor that he was well-prepared, nor that he was exceptionally intelligent.

In the end, he was still just a pawn in the eyes of that god...

No, perhaps they aren't even worthy of being called chess pieces.

Qin Ye, though seemingly acting recklessly, actually saved him.

What is your purpose?

He understood that no one would lend a helping hand without a reason; self-interest was the only constant theme.

"I have a grand plan to dethrone the Geo God. I wonder if you'd be interested?"

"what?!"

My mood, which should have hit rock bottom, is now rapidly rising.

That night, Qin Ye instilled in him countless ideas he had never heard of before.

And he was thus convinced by it.

While the brain is still in a daze.

Her slender fingers touched Pantalone's left chest.

“One day, we will take control of the heart of the Teyvat economy and bring Mora to a standstill according to our will.”

For the first time, the young banker witnessed the power of wisdom and grasped the promise of hope and the future.

His serious expression suddenly relaxed.

"Of course, what I'm telling you is just theoretical knowledge; the one who truly puts it into practice is yourself."

Qin Ye crossed his arms, turned around and leaned against the desk, his cool eyes gleaming in the night.

"The Northern Bank is no longer anyone's property, but you should understand my purpose."

“I understand,” Pantalone nodded silently.

It will eventually become ours... no, it will become mine.
