Genshin Impact Life Simulator, They Want to Kill Me

"This fucking world."

The conflicts between countries, the hatred and resentment, I don’t know when it will end.

"Let's go, it's time to go back to Mond."

Kaia said this, and the group went back towards Mondstadt.

Chapter 52 The evil Lawrence clan!

After the battle, Kaeya had already pulled down the eye patch on his right eye. Along the way, Ying, Amber and the others secretly stared at this eye. Paimon even flew above Kaeya's head, as if he wanted to see something through the gap in the eye patch.

Kaiya said helplessly: "I've already said that this eye is useless. I accidentally scratched my eye when I was a child and got a prosthetic eye. It has no use other than filling the gap."

"I always feel like I can only believe half of what you say, Kaia."

"It seems like I always lie. Okay, we're in Mondstadt now."

Kaeya changed the subject, and before they knew it, they had walked to the bridge outside the gate of Mond. Because of Mond's current policy, ordinary people are prohibited from entering and leaving at will, the bridge seemed very deserted, without even a pigeon. With Kaeya and Amber's guarantee, Ying and Paimon finally entered the city.

"Finally I can take a good rest!"

Paimon stamped his feet. Looking at Paimon's big heart, Ying's mood due to Nelue's departure recovered a little. However, it was not time to rest yet. She still had to meet the current leader of Mond, Jean Gunnhildr, the vice-captain of the Knights of Favonius.

As the group was walking in the city, Ying noticed a blue-haired female figure walking on the avenue not far away. Her face was as cold as ice. The pedestrians around her frowned and dodged to the side with disgust when they saw this figure, as if it was a sin to stand with this person.

She passed by a few people and looked at Ying with a scrutinizing look.

"Yura..."

Amber, who was beside Ying, read out the other person's name. Amber's voice made Eula's gaze shift to Amber, but without saying much, she looked away and continued walking forward.

Amber looked at Eula's back with some complicated feelings.

When Eula looked at Paimon, he felt like he was being stared at by something scary and shrank back. He didn't dare to show his head until Eula left and whispered in Ying's ear: "He seems so cold and hard to get along with."

As Eula left the road, the pedestrians who had previously stepped aside returned to normal.

"Miss Amber didn't even reply when I spoke to her. The Lawrence family is really rude!"

"The evil Lawrence clan!"

People around made all kinds of noises.

Ying blinked. It seemed that this person, or this person's family, had a very bad reputation in Mond?

"Amber, are you familiar with her?"

Ying felt that Amber didn't seem to be in such a good mood. Amber nodded and said, "Well, when she was little, Eula learned from my grandfather, so Eula and I often played together. But one day, Eula took the initiative to distance herself from me and stopped talking to me."

"Huh?" Paimon asked, "Why is this?"

"They said that Eula is from the Lawrence clan. Ying, Paimon, you may not know what Lawrence means to us in Mond. Simply put, the Lawrence clan once brought pain to Mond, so the people of Mond hate the Lawrence clan very much. The Lawrence clan is naturally arrogant and thinks they are nobles and look down on others. Eula should be ordered by her family not to be with someone like me, right?"

Amber smiled slightly.

"Although Eula doesn't talk to me, I know that Eula is different from other Lawrence people, and I will always regard Eula as my good friend."

Amber put aside the coldness they felt when they first met. After spending more time together, Ying and Paimon discovered that Amber is a kind-hearted girl.

If the relations between countries in this world weren't so tense, Amber would have been more enthusiastic, right?

"Although I don't quite understand it, I can sense that everyone in Mondstadt really dislikes this person called Eula. It feels like the attitudes they have towards others and towards Eula are completely different."

"The attitude of the city towards the Lawrence family is the same." Kaia said at this time, "Plus, Eula is also a member of the Knights now. When Eula joined the Knights of Favonius, the city almost went crazy. Everyone was worried that Eula, as a member of the Lawrence family, would do something bad in her position, and they became even more hostile to Eula."

"Is that so?" Paimon asked curiously, "Does Kaeya also hate Eula?"

"Everyone in this world has their own difficulties. I don't have the energy to be hostile to others. However, Eula has always been highly regarded in our Knights. Our Grand Master also praised Eula for her meticulous thinking since she was a child. When she was still young, she could think about problems like the Master. This is a very high evaluation."

As they were talking, they were about to go to the Knights of Favonius to look for Captain Jean. When they passed the Mond Hotel, Kaia stopped and Amber pointed ahead and said, "Hey? Captain Jean is here."

Following the direction pointed by Amber, Ying saw a woman with blonde hair and blue eyes communicating with a masked woman outside the hotel.

"It's Anastasia, the diplomat of the Winter Kingdom's Fatui. Captain Qin is busy now, so don't disturb her for now. Let's go over after she's done with her work."

Hearing Amber's words, Ying and Paimon nodded.

"So, this is our attitude. If we cannot immediately destroy the rebellious dragon, we might as well hand over Mondstadt's defense to the Fatui. Mondstadt's dragon disaster can be dealt with as long as we can get rid of that beast..."

Captain Qin frowned and asked in a serious tone, "Beast?"

"Well, what does the acting leader mean?"

"Huh..." Qin seemed to want to say something, but finally let out a long breath and calmed down a little. "I hope your country's diplomats can be more professional. You want to 'deal with' one of Mond's Four Guardians of the Wind? I don't want anyone to say such crazy things in front of the Knight of Favonius."

"Ha, ha ha ha..." Anastasia covered her mouth and chuckled, "Not as crazy as you say." After that, her tone changed, "Very good, today's consultation ends here. The result this time is 'both sides exchanged constructive opinions frankly', right? Ha, I will record it truthfully."

The two people seemed to part on bad terms.

Paimon muttered quietly, "Does the other party seem so arrogant?"

Ying also remembered the merchant from the Kingdom of Zhidong before, who was also very arrogant and mentioned the Fatui in his words.

Is this the Kingdom of Winter?

Ying wondered what the Ice Queen of the Kingdom of Winter looked like. Was she the same as the Little King of the Lucky Grass?

The people below did not notice that in a room above the Goethe Hotel, a man in a black robe wearing a spiral mask that covered his entire face was looking down through the window.

Chapter 53: The Mysterious Agong

"In terms of diplomacy, the Fatui of the Kingdom of Winter are the most powerful party on the continent. There are eleven executive officers among the Fatui. The one currently in Mondstadt is the eighth lady of the Fatui executive officers."

In the upstairs lobby of the Goethe Hotel, the lady sat on a chair and asked Agong, who was beside the bed, "What are you looking at?"

The entire Goethe Hotel has been booked by the Fatui. Without the interference of outsiders, the Fatui can discuss things in the hotel without worry. As for the funds for booking the hotel... I believe the rich should not mind.

The masked Agong retracted his gaze and replied to the lady: "Madam, I am watching how our diplomats are arguing with Mond's acting head of delegation. What do you think Mond's diplomacy is like now?"

"There's nothing to guess about that." The lady said disdainfully, "Mond has always been weak. Facing our pressure, it must be in a state of panic now."

"As expected of you, Madam." Agong snapped his fingers. "Mond is really weak right now. Our diplomat almost stepped on the acting leader named Jean, but the other party didn't dare to get really angry and could only say some words to show off their strength."

"A country that has even given up on gods, no matter how tough it pretends to be or how indifferent it is to the outside world, will never be very confident in its heart."

"Yes, ma'am, you are right." Agong nodded. "Munde is like a beautiful woman wearing many layers of clothes. She thinks she can rest easy with so many layers of clothes. But she doesn't know that with just a slight tug, we can tear off all her clothes and expose her to everyone's cold gaze, allowing us to do whatever we want."

The lady frowned. “Bad metaphor.”

"Eh? Ma'am, don't you like it? I think this metaphor is quite funny."

The lady stared coldly at Agong, who was standing by the window with his hands outstretched, looking very aggrieved. She stared at the eyes under Agong's mask and opened her mouth: "Agong, who are you?"

Agong tilted his head and asked in confusion: "What are you asking, madam? I am a reserve officer of the Fatui, an intern?"

"I'm not a fool like Tartaglia. There was no such position as the Fatui's executive officer before. This position seems to have been established just for you!"

"It is because Her Majesty the Queen admires my talent too much, and with the recommendation of My Majesty the Servant, that I was able to sit in this position."

"Really?" The lady's eyes were still fixed on Agong, "So what talents do you have?"

Agong patted his chest excitedly and said, "My intelligence gathering ability is very strong! Madam, you may not know that I just collected information that the blood-maned lion Dishia who had defected from Xumi appeared near the town of Mond Qingquan and was killed by Mond's cavalry captain Kaia. It's really scary. Mond is one of the seven countries after all. No matter how weak it is, it still has a strong foundation and there are still many powerful people with good strength."

"How did you know this news? Do you have your own intelligence channels?"

The lady did not doubt the truth of the news, but was very curious about how the masked man named Agong got the news.

"Well, this is the place where the Queen chose me to come." Agong seemed to laugh it off and didn't want to say more about this issue. "Anyway, everyone is here for the Queen and for Zhidong!"

The lady was afraid of this man named Agong. She had been afraid of him since the first moment she saw him. Although most of the Fatui wore masks, he was the only one wearing such a mask. Although he was trained by the servants of Hearth House, the lady had doubts about this. This man seemed to be full of mysteries, and coupled with this intelligence ability...how much information has he collected about me?

What is his relationship with the Ice Queen? Perhaps he is supervising me on behalf of the Ice Queen?

This person is definitely not as funny as he appears to be!

Agong continued, "And the Queen said that you are in charge of Mondstadt. So I am now your subordinate. I will use my abilities to help you!"

"Really? Since you are my subordinate now, then..." the lady followed Agong's words and said, "Take off the mask on your face and let me see your real appearance."

Let me see who you really are!

Hearing this, Agong stretched out his hands to cover the masks on both sides of his cheeks, and his body became shy and a little embarrassed: "This is not good, right? I wear this mask because I am disfigured. It's ugly underneath. It's not good to scare the lady!"

The lady's eyes narrowed and she stood up from the chair, quickly rushed to Agong and grabbed the mask on Agong's face.

"I wouldn't mind."

Since you don't want to take it off, I'll do it myself!

But Agong was like a loach, twisting his body nimbly to avoid the lady's grab, jumping to the other side through the gap, and continuing to twist his body with a wronged tone.

"But I do mind it! I have been wearing this mask and if I were suddenly asked to take it off, I would feel like I am being stripped naked in front of others. No, ma'am, I don't want to be stripped naked! It's very embarrassing! Ma'am, you can't do that. This is only here and you can't look at it!"

The lady failed to catch him and did not pursue him. She withdrew her hand and thought.

Although he did not use his full strength just now, the opponent dodged it so easily. It was indeed not easy for him to be placed in such a position by the Ice Queen.

It would have been best if the opponent's mask could have been taken off, but if it had not been successful, it had served as a test to some extent. The Ice Queen strictly forbids meaningless fighting between executives. Although this man named Agong is not a formal executive, everything still needs to be stopped at the right time.

As for the rest, I will slowly figure it out.

"Just keep wearing this mask." The lady threw her hands and sat back in her chair. "Also, stop talking nonsense!"

“Hi, hi, hi!” Seeing that the lady had no intention of taking off her mask, Agong jumped up happily and shouted excitedly, “Madam, you are the best! I will definitely work harder to help you!”

The lady ignored Agong's funny words and asked directly: "Since your intelligence ability is so excellent, have you found out any news about the wind god Barbatos?"

A Gong lowered his head, as if someone had poured a basin of cold water over him.

Chapter 54 Eula: Amber, please forgive me

Agong seemed to be a little ashamed and looked away. On the road outside, an ordinary drunkard wearing a green hat and white stockings passed by. Agong looked away and apologized to the lady:

"I'm sorry, ma'am, there is no news on this matter yet. Maybe the wind god Barbatos is traveling abroad and is not in Mondstadt? After all, he is a free god. Everything about him is free, a freedom that is hard to understand."

Still no trace of Barbatos?

The lady frowned.

If Barbatos cannot be found, Winter, whose patience has been exhausted, will force the Wind God to show up. The method is...

Agong opened his mouth and said, "But just like what the lady said at the meeting, once a disaster big enough to destroy Mondstadt is unleashed, even the free gods will be busy, right?"

"Now is not the time to do this kind of thing."

Agong nodded in agreement. "Yes, indeed. This is the last resort. Now we still have to gather information. Unfortunately, no matter how weak the high-ranking officials in Mondstadt are, they will not tell us news like the footprints of the God of Wind... Although I think they themselves don't know the whereabouts of their own god."

Agong held his chin, as if thinking seriously: "So in the end we have to investigate it ourselves. We need more clues and information. I remember that there is something in the Mondstadt Cathedral that is regarded as a treasure by the Mondstadt people. It is the instrument played by the Wind God himself, the Sky Harp. There may be clues about the Wind God on it. If we can get the Sky Harp, we may be able to dig out something useful."

"Very good, you will take care of this matter."

Agong stood up straight, as if issuing a military order: "Don't worry, ma'am, I will send someone to find a chance to steal the Sky Harp!"

After that, Agong continued, "Of course, it's not just this one thing. We need to start from many aspects. Since the top leaders of Mond are unable to provide us with information about the God of Wind, there is a family in Mond that should have a lot of intelligence. Perhaps we can try to contact them and guide them."

As he spoke, Agong said in a somewhat wicked voice: "The more chaotic Mondstadt is, isn't it more suitable for us Fatui to fish in troubled waters?"

The lady looked at Agong and said in a warning tone: "Don't do unnecessary things."

"I understand, I understand. But if it's the Mond people themselves who are causing the turmoil, then this can be seen as a way to prepare for what they will face if they can't find the Wind God, right?"

"What do you want to say?"

"I've discovered in Mond these days that the Lawrence family is not doing well in Mond."

The lady naturally knew this. She was a Mondstadt person before she joined the Fatui. Lawrence of Mondstadt once ruled Mondstadt darkly and even arrogantly overthrew the statue of Barbatos. In the end, the Lawrence family was overthrown just like the statue. Because of the pain they brought to Mondstadt, the people of Mondstadt hated the Lawrence family.

"It's really funny to say that. During the dark period of Mondstadt, the Lawrence family was the largest force among the nobles, but other noble families also enjoyed the glory brought by the Lawrence family at that time. But when Lawrence's tyranny was overthrown, the sins and evils of the entire Mondstadt seemed to be borne by the Lawrence family. Under the suppression and guidance of the upper echelons of successive generations, the Lawrence family is now hated by both humans and ghosts."

Agong laughed and said,

"This morning I saw a little kid fall down on the road. His mother helped him up and said, 'It's all the fault of the evil Lawrence family. This road must have been walked by someone from the Lawrence family and affected my baby and caused him to fall down!' Madam, do you think this is ridiculous?"

"Hmph." The lady said coldly, "It's just Mond's boring political game."

"The Lawrence family has been unhappy with the Mondstadt Knights for a long time. Perhaps we, the Fatui, can take advantage of it. By the way, there is also an outlier in the Lawrence family who actually joined the family's mortal enemy, the Knights, and became a knight. Oh, by the way, her name is Eula Lawrence, and she seems to have some ideas of her own."
