"Don't worry. When Paimon showed me the way yesterday, I memorized some of the landmark peaks." Si Luo responded with a chuckle, protecting the cute little elf sleeping in his arms with one hand, and holding Ying's soft little hand with the other, and leading her out of the camp like a couple, and coming to the rugged path in the mountains again. Ying felt the warmth and sense of security coming from Si Luo, and followed his steps like a well-behaved little wife. ... Paimeng slept until noon. When she opened her eyes yawning in Si Luo's arms, they had already arrived at a plain and were moving slowly along a relatively wide road. "Huh? How did we get here?" Paimeng flew up from Si Luo's arms in a daze, looking at the intimate posture of the two people holding hands and the endless vast plains around them. Because he couldn't wrap his mind around it for a moment, he flew directly to Si Luo's head and sat down. Two slender calves wrapped in long boots hung down naturally, just blocking part of Si Luo's vision. However, the faint milky fragrance coming from above also made him give up his intention of preaching. He fed Paimon so many delicious foods last night, and they were all precious items with high energy and nutrition, so at the end, he did not forget to ask for some rewards from this greedy little loli. Just like the two white and tender legs in front of him, he ate a lot last night. Thanks to these experiences, Paimon and he now know each other well, otherwise he would not have stuck to him again the first thing after waking up.
"Don't you see what time it is now?" "Well…" Paimon was now completely sober. After looking at the sky, he grabbed Si Luo's hair guiltily and looked at Ying beside him in a flattering manner. "I'm sorry, I accidentally overslept~" "..." Paimon admitted his mistake so decisively that Ying swallowed back the words that were about to come out of his mouth. "Forget it. Be more careful next time. If you're not full, remember to tell me. Don't go out alone to look for food at night. If you get into danger, no one can save you!" "Huh? Um..." Paimon was a little confused by her words, but at least he could hear that Ying was concerned about him, so the heartless little loli breathed a sigh of relief and did not dwell on these little things. She happily shook her white legs and feet on Si Luo's head. "What a nice weather today~" "indeed." Si Luo echoed softly, and at the same time, when Ying didn't notice the angle, he reached out and gently poked Paimon's body. The little cutie sitting on his head was stunned for a moment, then quickly took off his boots and put them on his legs. Si Luo nodded in satisfaction and continued to chat with Ying about various things while walking along the road. ... After arriving at the plain, Si Luo and his companions finally met the indigenous people of this world - they looked no different from them, and their language was inexplicably interoperable, so Ying soon felt relieved and was no longer in a hurry to travel. Instead, she accompanied Si Luo and Paimon to enjoy the beautiful natural environment of Mondstadt as if they were on a picnic. It was not until three days later that they arrived at an extremely dark forest. "This seems to be the Whispering Forest. If we pass through here, we can directly reach Mondstadt!" Si Luo looked at the forest with inexplicably low visibility and quickly confirmed the location. After all, he had bought a map from a passerby before and now had a very detailed understanding of Mond's geography. "It's finally here!"
A look of anticipation appeared on Ying's face. After all, Mondstadt is a country with more mountains and plains, and it is relatively sparsely populated. Except for Mondstadt City, other places are basically manors or villages. Therefore, Ying is quite excited about the city she is about to see. "Hmm...Mondstadt's delicacies..." Paimon, who was floating beside the two of them, sucked his fingers, with an excited look on his face. "Let's leave quickly!" "slower!" Looking at Paimon who had already taken the lead in rushing into the Whispering Forest, Ying subconsciously called out, then hurriedly pulled Si Luo to chase after him. After spending a few days together, the relationship between the three of them has reached a delicate balance. Not to mention their close relationship with Si Luo, Ying also regards Paimon as a traveling companion and is naturally very concerned about him. "It's so dark in here... Traveler, Si Luo, you must protect Paimon!" Ying only chased for a few dozen meters before the timid Paimeng flew back on his own initiative. Then, under the somewhat helpless looks of the two men, he hid directly in Si Luo's robe. "Call me out when we get to Mondstadt!" Paimon's soft voice came out from his clothes, making Ying, who was holding Si Luo's hand, a little jealous. "Really...you can't spoil her too much! She likes to crawl into your clothes and be lazy whenever she has nothing to do!" Paimon, this greedy and lazy little pet, not only eats the most every day, but also flies for at most a dozen minutes during normal exercise. Then he will crawl into Si Luo's clothes to be lazy, and then stay there for an hour or two. Although this also gave her and Si Luo a chance to be alone, she felt awesome when she thought that a place she had never seen had become Paimon's territory. "Don't you usually pamper her the most?" Si Luo loosened his clasped hands with amusement, pinched Ying's cheek, and then put his arms around the girl's shoulders intimately like a couple. Although he and Ying haven't revealed the final piece of paper yet, after spending the past few days together, the two of them have actually already understood each other tacitly. Not only does Ying snuggle in his arms when she sleeps, but she also basically holds his hand when they are traveling on weekdays, and rarely separates from him. "Where is the ..." Ying responded in a low voice, but she was no longer jealous of Paimon. As the two of them got deeper into the room, she began to look curiously at the plants around her that were emitting a faint glow. What she didn't notice was that Si Luo, whose expression had not changed, also breathed a sigh of relief. While enjoying Ying's warm body, he squinted his eyes and enjoyed Paimon's soft and moist lips under her clothes. This is also the reason why he spoke up for Paimon. After the greedy little loli mastered the method of squeezing milk, in the past few days, whenever she wanted to eat, she would crawl into his clothes in the name of being lazy, and then use the independent space inside the robe to eat secretly by herself. Now she has even mastered many skills. For example, before eating a lollipop, she will take off her shoes and step on it for a while. This not only shortens the process of getting milk for her, but also increases the output. And when the milk gushed out, she would try to wrap herself around the shaft of Longinus's spear, fixing her body, and then block the exit with her tiny lips to prevent waste as much as possible. With the advantage of her petite body and Si Luo's help in covering for her, her actions have not been discovered by Ying until now, and she has enjoyed more than twenty rounds of sword marrow alone. If you must say, her current fighting ability might be almost as good as Ying's. Although her strength had increased a lot, she was still very timid, so she didn't notice the changes in her body at all. "Ok?"
However, Paimon's behavior today seemed a little different from usual. After Si Luo took a few steps, he realized that the miniature loli in his clothes did not start licking the lollipop as usual, but rode on the spear of Longinus, and then began to take off her clothes. Although he didn't know what she wanted to do, Si Luo still put his other hand on his abdomen, creating a platform for Paimon to store clothes. Not long after, as Paimon stopped disarming, the cute little loli suddenly lay down on the horizontal bar and hugged it tightly. The warm and soft feeling, coupled with the extremely delicate skin, allowed Si Luo to clearly feel the slight ups and downs of Paimon's body. The inexplicable stimulation that made him fantasize made Si Luo's body suddenly pause, and he almost lost his balance and fell to the ground. This little guy Paimon is really irresistible. ... The Whispering Forest is quite large. After walking in it for more than an hour, Si Luo and his friends finally saw a clear light. They quickened their pace and walked for more than ten minutes before they finally left the forest. "Is that Mondstadt?" Through the higher terrain, Ying finally saw the towering city surrounded by the sea on three sides. Even though she was still a long distance away from the city, she felt a little shocked. She subconsciously grabbed Si Luo's arm that was hanging down from her shoulder. “It feels good…” Si Luo nodded, and once again fed all of the sword marrow to Paimeng, feeding the little loli who was hiding inside and eating secretly all at once. "Be careful!!" Just as the two were preparing to speed up their pace and reach Mondstadt before nightfall, accompanied by a very pleasant and crisp sound, a flaming arrow suddenly passed by their side and hit a grass-green slime that had been lurking behind them at some point. "Huh! Are you guys okay?" Then, a red figure came towards them from the front, and a brown-haired girl with rabbit ears and a bow took off her goggles with great energy, revealing her delicate and lovely face. "My name is Amber! I'm a scout knight of the Knights of Favonius!" The girl in over-the-knee boots came up to Si Luo. Although she was a little surprised by the outstanding appearance of the two men, she did not act too rudely. Instead, she quickly introduced herself to them with a gentle smile. "Siluo is a traveler who has just arrived in Mondstadt." The girl's amiable smile was like a warm little sun, giving people a very comfortable feeling. Therefore, Si Luo's attitude was also very friendly, and he returned her the same gentle smile. "She is Ying, a companion I met on the road. She is also coming to Mondstadt for the first time." "Si Luo and Ying..." Amber nodded and spoke with some helplessness. "Although I welcome your arrival, I am truly sorry... Mondstadt has been a bit unstable recently... If possible, I hope you will not approach Mondstadt in the near future..." "Did something happen?" Si Luo roughly guessed the reason, but still asked with a little confusion. "Don't worry, Si Luo and I are very strong! Maybe we can help you!" Ying also spoke at the right time. It seemed that Amber's smile was indeed very contagious. Although it was the first time they met, Ying seemed to have a very good impression of her. "Actually, there's nothing wrong with saying it... because many people in Mondstadt know about it now..."
"That's right. Recently, a magic dragon has set its sights on Mondstadt for some reason. It often hovers over or swoops down from above, causing a lot of trouble for everyone." Amber hesitated for a moment, but still told them the details. Just as she said, there was nothing to hide about this news. Many people had fled from Mondstadt recently because of the dragon, and I'm afraid the news had already spread outside. "The dragon... is it the one we saw before?" Ying immediately became interested and excitedly described the appearance of the dragon to Amber. "That's it. I didn't expect that even you guys saw it... We really can't just leave it alone any longer. If this continues, I'm afraid everyone in Mondstadt will be forced to leave..." Amber's cute face showed a hint of worry, and then after calming down, she looked at them again. "So you guys are still planning on going to Mondstadt?" "Of course, we came here to chase that dragon! Since there's a chance we can see it again, of course we have to stay here!" Ying responded without hesitation, and at the same time turned her head to look at Si Luo who was holding her arm. "Right?" "Um…" Si Luo naturally nodded cooperatively. He didn't care where he went, but now that he had met the lovely girl Amber, it would be a good choice to stay here for a while. "In that case, I will take you to the city to find a place to live." Chapter 18: Scouting Knight, Encountering the Dragon Again (58/) "Well!" Just as Si Luo followed Amber towards Mondstadt, the well-fed Paimon crawled out of his clothes, put the crown back on his head with a satisfied look on his face, and then happily sat on his shoulders. “I am so full…” "Thank you for your hard work, Si Luo~" The cute Paimon did not forget his parents who provided him with food and clothing. After licking all the milk on his lips, he took the initiative to put his small and soft lips on his face and gave him a sweet kiss. "I still have some conscience~" Enjoying the soft touch at that moment, Si Luo poked her belly with some amusement, while Ying, who was holding his arm, showed a puzzled look. In the past few days, she had also seen Si Luo inexplicably take out some food from his clothes, so the girl did not have much doubt about his ability to feed Paimon, but she really couldn't understand why Paimon had to hide in his clothes to eat every time, and both of them looked very happy after eating. The most important thing is that she always felt that Paimon’s relationship with Si Luo seemed to be much closer than her own. "Hmm? What is this little thing?" Paimon's voice also attracted Amber's attention. The girl who was walking on the road subconsciously turned her head to look at Si Luo, but was frightened by the cute mini elf on his shoulder and stood there with a puzzled look. "Paimon is not a small thing!!"
Paimon flew up from Si Luo's shoulder and responded with a dissatisfied look on his face. "So your name is Paimon... Sorry!" Amber, who just realized what was happening, quickly apologized, but the curiosity in her eyes became even stronger. "Is Paimon also a traveler from another country?" The customs and cultures of the various countries on the continent of Teyvat are different. Although there is trade exchange on weekdays, due to inconvenient transportation and too many dangerous factors, most people may never leave their country in their entire lives, except for some merchant groups and adventurers. As the only remaining scout knight of the Knights of Favonius, Amber was already very busy handling her work on weekdays, and naturally had no intention of traveling to other countries. So although she was very surprised by Paimon's existence, it was not beyond her acceptable range.
