Chapter 36 Noelle is too considerate of others
That night, Gu Chen and Paimeng still stayed in the house in Mondstadt.
That night, through dream communication, Gu Chen also told Funina that he planned to leave Mondstadt and go to Liyue.
Funina said it was okay.
Anyway, they would meet in their dreams every night, no matter where they were.
The next morning, Gu Chen and Paimeng had almost packed up their things, and then visited their friends in Mondstadt one by one, expressing their intention to leave and saying goodbye.
These friends are naturally reluctant to part with it.
However, Gu Chen said that he would not come back.
It doesn't matter as long as he wants to come back.
After hearing this, these friends thought the same thing.
It's not a life-and-death separation, why are you being so awkward?
Therefore, facing Gu Chen's impending departure, they were still very calm and wished him a safe journey.
When saying goodbye to these friends in the Knights Templar, Captain Qin generously stated that the house would always be yours and it had always been a benefit given to you by the Knights Templar. They would not let you be without a place to live when you returned.
Gu Chen likes this kind of generosity.
Even he had thought about it.
From now on, no matter which country I am in, I must leave a home for myself and strive to become a homeowner in seven countries!
Well, that’s the goal!
After saying goodbye to all their friends, Gu Chen and Paimon left Mondstadt and set out for Liyue.
Just ...
They never expected that there would be an extra follower around them.
This follower was none other than Noel, an apprentice knight of the Knights of Favonius.
Noelle was entrusted to him by Jean, who said that Noelle had to go to Liyue alone to purchase supplies, and she was really worried about him, so she decided to let you go with him.
Gu Chen and Paimon naturally had no objection to Qin's small request, considering that Noelle was beautiful, cute and capable.
How capable is he exactly?
Ahem, not capable in that sense, but capable in terms of ability!
For example, Noelle is very strong.
When she wields her two-handed sword, she can knock away any blocking Hilichurls or robbers with just two or three strikes!
They even encountered a ruins guard on the way, and Noel chopped it to pieces in two or three hits!
Competence is not only reflected in combat, but also in details and care.
For example, it was getting late and they had to camp in the wilderness.
As long as Gu Chen and Paimon expressed their willingness, Noelle set up the tent and prepared the bedding like the wind without them saying anything.
Gu Chen and Paimeng were stunned.
Before the two of them could discuss what to do next, Noelle immediately prepared a bonfire and cooked a steaming hot dinner over it.
The three of them gathered around the campfire, looking at the starry sky and eating a delicious dinner. They were so satisfied.
Especially the little guy Paimon, he feels very comfortable after eating.
She floated beside her and praised Noelle earnestly:
“I’m so lucky to be able to travel with Noelle this time!
Noelle is so capable, she takes care of us both in every possible way!"
Noelle felt a little shy after being praised. She lowered her head slightly and said softly:
"No... no... this is just my duty."
Holding the teacup and sipping the after-dinner tea, Gu Chen couldn't help but shook his head:
“Noelle is being modest.
You have prepared everything and every detail very well, and you are almost turning Paimon and I into useless people. How can this be summed up by the word "duty"?
Sigh... With Noelle by my side, I can worry at least 80% less. Basically, all I have to do is lie down and relax."
Noelle covered her blushing face.
"No, I'm not as good as Senior Gu Chen said. I'm just... doing what I should do."
Gu Chen could see that Noelle truly felt that these were her duties, which made Gu Chen love and care for her even more.
At this time, Paimeng suddenly became curious:
"By the way, Noelle, why do you call Gu Chen Senior?"
Paimon's question left Noelle a little confused:
"I am a maid of the Knights of Favonius, an apprentice knight who has not yet become a full knight.
Senior Gu Chen is different. He not only helped the Knights a lot, but also saved the hero of Mondstadt.
Not only is he a knight of the Order, but he is also a powerful knight with a title.
Therefore, I naturally have to call Senior Gu Chen "Senior."
"That's it..."
Paimon put his hands behind his back to show that he understood.
Suddenly, Paimon had a sudden idea and asked mischievously:
"I remember Klee is also a titled knight, right? She's the Spark Knight.
If that's the case, then Noelle should also call Klee senior?"
Noelle seemed a little confused when she mentioned this:
“This…it’s true, actually.
But every time I meet Klee, she calls me Sister Noelle.
I guess Klee would find it weird if I called her "Senior".
So, I just call her Kelly."
Seeing Noelle explaining so seriously, Paimon felt a little embarrassed.
Just as Paimon was laughing awkwardly, not knowing what to say, Noelle suddenly remembered something:
"By the way, Senior Gu Chen, I remember you can fly, right?"
Gu Chen nodded:
"Yes, what's wrong?"
Noelle felt particularly guilty:
"Senior Gu Chen should be able to take Paimeng to Liyue quickly, right?
But Senior Gu Chen actually walked to take care of me.
It seems that I am the one who has dragged down my seniors.
Might as well be like this.
Senior Gu Chen, you don't have to wait for me tomorrow morning. Just go ahead and I'll... I'll catch up as soon as possible!"
Holding the teacup, Gu Chen's expression couldn't help but become a little stiff:
"Noelle, catching up as quickly as possible means..."
"I'll run! At full speed!"
"All the way from Mondstadt to Liyue?"
"I know my speed can't catch up with my seniors, but I will try my best!"
"No...that's not the point..."
Gu Chen really didn't know where to start persuading him, so he simply said:
"Noelle, I'm a traveler from another world. Do you understand what a traveler is?
As a traveler, you should not be in a hurry.
You should measure the land of Teyvat with your feet, walk slowly and enjoy the scenery along the way.
Yes, I can fly, but if I had to fly for everything, it would be boring.”
Noelle thought thoughtfully:
"Senior means..."
Gu Chen made the final decision:
“I mean, you didn’t hold me back.
Even without you, Paimon and I would have walked there."
Noelle immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's fine, that's fine..."
After looking at Paimon, Gu Chen shook his head helplessly.
Many times, Noelle's character of being too considerate of others is also a headache.
Why, after so many trials, was Noelle still an apprentice knight? Why had Jean still not let her officially join?
The key point is this character!
