บท 16: Mondstadt's Richest Person!
After a while, Jason stopped thinking about it.
"Lumine, Amber, go back to the City. I still have somewhere to go." Jason asked them to leave. He had something else to do.
"Can't we go together?" Lumine pulled his sleeve and asked him expectantly. She wanted to spend more time with him.
"It's a bit inconvenient for you to accompany me." Jason replied bluntly.
Both he and Diluc have a special relationship with the underground intelligence network organization in Teyvat.
It's not good to involve them in such a shady place.
"Okay... If you say so..." Lumine felt a little sorry for not being able to accompany him. Nonetheless, she followed his instruction.
"Jason, are you looking for that nasty guy from before?" Detective Paimon thought of something and asked him in annoyance.
"The aforementioned guy is the richest man in Mondstadt." Jason briefly informed Lumine and Paimon about Diluc.
"What!? Is that red-haired guy even richer than you?"
Paimon was immediately attracted by the topic.
"That's right. The only asset I have is Good Hunter restaurant. In contrast, Diluc not only has a manor outside the City but also owns Dawn Winery. So, Diluc is essentially in charge of half of Mondstadt's wine industry making him the uncrowned king of the city." Jason told some inside information about Diluc.
Jason didn't want them to get on the wrong side of Diluc.
Then he also added, "And remember Mondstadt's alcohol industry is renowned throughout the continent."
"Huh? Doesn't that mean the redhead actually controls most of Mondstadt's economy?"
Paimon was surprised after listening to this.
Then immediately, she shrank back with her momentum weakened, "Paimon can't afford to offend such a guy..."
Paimon has always adhered to the principle of confronting the weak and fearing the strong. She is greedy for her life and fears her death.
"Paimon's sorry for causing you trouble, Amber." Paimon flew over and apologized to Amber. She didn't want to implicate her.
Paimon didn't know whether her actions caused any trouble to Amber.
"It's okay. Master Diluc has always disliked the Knights, everyone in Mondstadt knows about it."
Amber waved her hand, telling her not to care.
But she still added, "But master Diluc is still a very righteous man."
"Is that so? Then Paimon will reluctantly forgive him!" Paimon didn't even blush while saying this.
After talking, Jason took out some keys from his system storage.
"Lumine, if you don't have a place to stay tonight, you can go to the restaurant." Then he handed the keys to Lumine and said, "The restaurant is temporarily closed today. Sarah should have stored a lot of cold food in the refrigerator. If you are hungry, heat and eat them."
"Ummu..." Lumine nodded obediently and took the keys.
Then, the two sides temporarily said goodbye and separated.
Jason walked deep into the woods.
While Amber, Lumine, and Paimon headed back to the City.
...
"Boss Jason, are you done playing with the little girl of the Knights?"
Diluc sensed the movement behind him, then folded his arms in front of his chest and asked with some interest.
Jason spread his hands helplessly, "Amber is dealing with some serious business, can you stop being so sarcastic?"
"I don't think you should mix with the Knights like this. If you are infected by the inefficiency of the Knights, it will be a big loss for Mondstadt." Diluc sounded regretful while saying this.
"Yes, yes, our Darknight Hero..."
Jason replied back with some sarcasm.
"Tsk..." Diluc smacked his lips, slightly annoyed after hearing the title.
Nonetheless, he didn't lose his demeanor. He quickly recovered his composure.
"What's the situation this time?"
Jason asked while walking alongside him.
"There are traces of the Abyss Order behind the attack on Mondstadt." Diluc truthfully reported his finding.
Then, he added, "You just came out of Falcon of the West Temple, so you should have discovered it."
Jason nodded in affirmation, "Indeed, I saw the crystallization and condensation of the dragon's breath. It is impossible for Stormterror to put it in there."
Stormterror can not fit inside the upper hall. It is difficult to even put a paw inside the room.
What's more, irrational Stormterror does not have the wisdom to think of such a plan.
And the most important thing is that he knew about the conspiracy of the Abyss Order from his past memories.
"If my information is right, the Abyss Mage should still be in a certain temple and have no time to evacuate," Diluc said, eager to find the Abyss Mage. He wanted to eliminate these hostile monsters for the safety of Mondstadt.
"I see."
Jason almost forgot about it.
If he remembered it right, an abyss mage should be in the Wolf of the North Temple.
And, it seems to be a cryo or hydro type.
It's okay if it's a hydro type...
But If it's a cryo type, and if he and Diluc didn't go there...
Kaeya will be in big trouble!
He won't be able to break the elemental shield of the cryo abyss mage.
Kaeya is a cryo vision holder, so he can't break the shield using the same element.
"Diluc, let's hurry up."
Jason suddenly quickened his pace. He wanted to make sure that Kaeya was alright.
"What's up?"
Diluc also ran to keep up with him.
"Kaeya went to the temple alone..." Jason hinted at him.
"He should not have any problem with his strength, right?" Although Diluc didn't like the Knights of Favonius, it didn't mean that he would deny the strength of some of its members. And, Kaeya is one of them.
Therefore, it makes no sense for them to hurry up.
"What if his opponent is a cryo abyss mage?" Jason suddenly asked.
"This..."
Diluc fell silent, unable to answer the question.
When a cryo vision holder meets a cryo abyss mage, the mage can directly borrow elemental powers from the leylines, which is much faster than the recovery of the atmospheric elements by the human.
In a war of attrition, Kaeya will definitely lose.
"And about you... what if you encounter a pyro abyss mage?" Jason asked while running.
"I'll hit it hard before it can create a shield! I won't give it a chance to breathe and chant!"
Diluc replied confidently. This is the only way he can think of.
Jason shook his head. If Diluc didn't take his warning seriously, there was nothing he could do.
Diluc is a strong and confident guy with his own idea and principle.
But then again, if he didn't have such qualities, he wouldn't be the "uncrowned king" that countless girls in Mondstadt longed for.
It was starting to get dark out in the wild. So, Jason and Diluc hurriedly ran to their destination.
Under the ruins of a thousand winds,
From a distance, they found the Wolf of the North Temple gate was already open.
After looking at each other, the two of them went inside.
