Chapter 11: The silver-haired maid at the door
Jams suddenly felt uncomfortable when Jean touched his face.
But soon he enjoyed the warmth of Jean's hand in his palm and elicited a playful response from her.
"Hmph, I knew it, you're just a seemingly serious guy."
"I've never claimed to be a serious person. If anyone tries to use morality to manipulate me, I won't hesitate to confront them."
Jams took pride in his shamelessness, behaving like a true bachelor.
However, his shameless behavior was still pleasing to Jean's eyes; she couldn't bring herself to dislike him.
"Jams, did you consume some charm-enhancing potion? You seem exceptionally charming now..."
"If I had consumed such a potion, you might not be able to resist me."
Jams adjusted his hairstyle, tilted his head 45 degrees to gaze at the sky, and sighed, "One cannot easily abandon innate beauty."
As he settled into his daily routine, the charisma bonus on Jams began to take effect.
With a charisma exceeding 200, coupled with his youthful and handsome face, he could easily be considered the most attractive guy in all of Mondstadt!
Even the composed Jean found it difficult to resist Jams' charm, her purple eyes sparkling.
"Jams, Captain Jean, are you done chatting?"
At that moment, a petite figure wearing a little red hood ran into the forest and approached the two.
"Sorry, Captain Jean, I couldn't stop Klee from coming in. I hope we didn't interrupt your conversation."
Amber, the scout knight, also arrived and looked somewhat helpless as Klee clung to Jams.
"No problem, we've finished talking."
Jean stretched lazily, appearing relaxed yet emanating a stronger presence than before.
Having advanced to the first rank of her Anemo Vision, her strength had greatly increased, along with her aura.
Not only did Jean find Jams more pleasing to the eye, but he also felt the same way about her, though he kept it to himself.
"That's good."
Amber patted her youthful chest and saluted Jean with a smile. "Captain Jean, I've found the person you were looking for. If there's nothing else, I'll go back to work!"
Amber, as the Pyro Vision holder, differed from Klee in that she didn't shy away from work. She diligently completed the tasks assigned by Jean and was valued as one of her subordinates.
"Well, thanks for your hard work. If you have time tonight, let's have a meal together."
Jean patted Amber's shoulder and encouraged her softly.
"Hehe, it's my duty after all. But if Captain Jean insists on treating, I'd be more than happy to join. Well then, see you tonight!"
Amber waved to everyone and left, leaving behind an energetic silhouette.
"Seems like girls with Pyro Visions are quite lively. I like it."
Jams watched Amber go, openly expressing his admiration for the young girl.
However, he temporarily suppressed his thoughts about inviting Amber to join the fishing team.
"Jean and Klee are acting as Acting Grand Master and official member of the Knights of Favonius, respectively. If I were to invite Amber, a scout knight, into the team, it might disrupt the daily operations of the Knights."
Jams pondered, pinching his chin. "Even if I want to expand the team, I shouldn't solely focus on the Knights of Favonius. There are still many Vision holders in Mondstadt..."
Like Noelle, the maid with a Geo Vision.
Like Barbara, the Hydro Vision-holding nun.
Like Diona, the cat-eared Cryo Vision-holding bartender.
And there's also the possibility of Mona and the Great White Slime Nun, Rosalia, appearing...
Of course, aside from these beautiful girls, there are a few male Vision holders whom Jams is not currently considering.
Jams doesn't prioritize one gender over the other; he simply remains true to his own preferences.
I just crave their bodies, I'm honest about it!
"The 'Pyro Envoys' task has a three-day time limit. Today, I'll spend the day fishing with Jean, and tomorrow, I'll explore the city and persuade one or two teammates. It shouldn't be too difficult."
With a plan in mind, a brighter smile appeared on Jams' face, as if he could already envision completing the task and receiving the rewards.
"Jams, shall we continue fishing?"
Jean bit her lip, a slightly embarrassed expression on her face. "The storm I summoned blew away all your fishing gear, but don't worry, I've bought you a brand new set. I hope you can forgive me."
"Well, of course, I choose to forgive you. The outburst of Anemo during your breakthrough was beyond your control. This is just a minor issue, so don't worry about it."
Jams waved his hand and smiled. "Since we've been blown to the eastern side of Mondstadt, let's fish at the Fruit Wine Lake nearby. Who knows, we might get some unexpected catches."
"Yes, yes! Klee must catch a super big fish this time!"
Klee didn't care where they fished as long as she was with Jams and Jean. Having someone to play with was enough to satisfy her.
After a morning of fun, Jean also began to relax and proposed with a smile, "How about we have a fishing competition to see who catches the biggest fish?"
"Klee thinks it should be about who catches the tastiest fish!"
Jams smirked mysteriously. "If it's about who catches the tastiest fish, then it's definitely going to be me."
The fish he caught were all enhanced by the system, not only delicious but also possessing various magical effects.
When Klee had his fish soup, she broke through her limits, which showed the power of the "enhanced fish"!
"Well, that's not necessarily true."
Both Jean and Klee expressed their dissatisfaction and decided to compete with Jams.
"Just make sure you don't exclaim 'Delicious!' when you taste my fish."
Jams crossed his arms, looking proud. He had great confidence in the fish he caught.
...
The group arrived at the still clear and beautiful Fruit Wine Lake, ready for another round of fishing.
Rustle, rustle...
However, just as Jams was about to get into the groove, his ears twitched, catching a faint sound of footsteps from the nearby forest.
Even though the person was trying to be quiet, Jams could hear it clearly with his enhanced hearing.
But he didn't alert them; instead, he pretended to focus on fishing while secretly observing the movements in the forest from the corner of his eye.
Rustle, rustle...
Behind the thick tree trunks, a graceful figure quietly peeked out, showing half of her head.
Jams saw a silver-haired girl dressed as a maid, wearing lightweight armguards, and exuding a gentle temperament.
This silver-haired girl, with her beautiful light green eyes, was silently observing the people fishing by the lake, her eyes filled with curiosity and envy.
"Oh..."
Jams was first stunned, then filled with unexpected joy!
Because he recognized the identity of this silver-haired maid!
Noelle, the "all-purpose maid" in the hearts of the residents of Mondstadt and the "trash generator" in the hearts of players, a gentle, kind, and powerful knight maid!
Noelle!?
Did she hear my plea for a team and come to me on her own accord?
