Chapter 74 Noelle's Sword in the Stone and the Pledge of Virtue
Outside the pub,
Jiang Yi and Noelle followed closely behind him, walking through the streets and alleys, avoiding the speeding carriages...
Arriving at the bustling stalls near the main entrance of Mondstadt.
The cries of various vendors selling fruits, flowers, fish... are full of the flavor of life.
"Wow! It's the benefactor and Noelle!"
Farah, the fruit vendor, put her palms together and thanked him.
"Master Jiang Yi, thank you for your help in the canyon. Would you like to try some of the sunset fruits and raspberries I just picked today?"
When Jiang Yi heard him address him as "Sir", he laughed and said, "You are too polite! How did I become an adult?"
"Uh~" Farah scratched his head, "I heard that you were so powerful that you defeated a team of Favonius Knights..."
"Give me two kilograms of sunset fruits and raspberries!" Jiang Yi said casually.
I haven't eaten fruit for a long time, so I need to supplement some vitamins.
"Okay! Wait a minute!"
Farah picked the freshest, largest and sweetest ones for Jiang Yi.
Jiang Yi bought the discounted fruit, picked up the bag, and handed Noel a raspberry.
"What do you think?"
Noel walked out of the tavern, thinking all the time, and looked at Jiang Yi.
"Is this story true? Or did you just..."
"It's just made up!" Jiang Yi interjected.
"It's very similar, isn't it! Monsters, dragon disasters, the Grand Master leaving, foreign oppression..."
"After listening to this story! Do you want to become the Knight King?"
Jiang Yi's eyes were burning, a story that was a mixture of Western fantasy before his time travel, island country adaptation, and anime and game derivatives.
He wanted to guide Noel to become a brand new knight, redefining and supplementing Mond's chivalry.
"I want to listen to it again, the part about defeating the white dragon and redeeming oneself in time..."
Noelle groaned.
"White dragon?" Jiang Yi looked towards the outside of Mondstadt, at the wind dragon that stirred up storms and roared every day for no reason.
“Then let’s start from the beginning!” He saw through Noel’s intention at a glance. Is this the main point of the story?
As night falls, there are endless stories to tell and endless words to say.
Jiang Yi and Noelle finished their dinner.
Call for a carriage.
After a day's rest, it was time for him to go to his appointment.
"Eula! Today's victory or defeat..."
Jiang Yi took out a long sword painted red and glanced at Noel who was watching the battle nervously.
The figure disappeared and the sword shadow became the wind.
"It's your defeat!"
"I can't get it even if I ask for it!" Eula raised her sword and was ready for battle.
Between the collision of wooden swords, there was a sharp gaze.
Jiang Yi saw blue ice in Youla's pupils.
The sword wind is slightly cold.
There is no need for the Eye of God to mobilize the power of the ice element; the sword intent can turn into wind and snow and cut into the soul.
"Are you finally using your full strength?" Jiang Yi felt Eula's sword intent for the first time, proving that the other party had mobilized all his strength except the Eye of God.
Bullet time makes Eula's sword move slowly in perspective.
Stepping on wooden boxes, stepping on saplings, and moving on stone locks, Jiang Yi used the sword intent in his heart.
Ride the west wind, see the world, and watch the beauty in your memory.
Therefore, all obstacles must be crushed.
I want to be... a level 99 swordsman who roams Teyvat.
In the sword light, there is a determination not to regret.
No matter how many difficulties there are, you will have to overcome all the mountains and rivers.
Eula's sword was deflected.
The swift sword shadow exceeded the speed of Eula's blocking.
The bright red marks were left by the sword blade like a paintbrush, smeared casually.
After a moment of surprise, Eula's heart gradually calmed down and her mind became more focused.
The candlelight danced in a fast and dense rhythm.
Trade injury for injury!
The captain, who was good at guerrilla warfare, first relied on the surrounding environment to avoid attacks, and then used his body to block the enemy's sword to gain a chance of victory.
In a trance, she looked at Jiang Yi, as if she saw Qin who had once fought against her.
Qin's swordsmanship is so superb, as light and fast as the wind.
Possess a firm determination to protect.
She moved the wind and snow with her dance steps, and performed her own sword skills, half of which was the coldness of the Eye of God.
When it comes to orthodoxy, nothing can compare to the Qin.
Now, he is inferior to Jiang Yi.
Jiang Yi's guardian sword is more aggressive because of the man's body.
Fighting against Qin is a completely different feeling.
"Have you changed from being the one I ravaged to being the one seeking revenge?" The corners of Eula's mouth slightly raised, "An eye for an eye!"
"Ice waves raging!"
"judgment!"
"broken!"
Blade Dancing is an elemental combat skill and elemental burst that does not utilize the power of the Eye of God.
This kind of martial arts is inherently mysterious and swift.
Jiang Yi's body flew out.
The two competed with each other, like graceful dancers, ferocious lion cubs, and dueling lone wolves.
Time is over,
There were several red marks on both of their bodies.
An unexpected draw.
"Next time, when you grow up again, I will have no choice but to use the Eye of God!" Eula lifted her hair, not caring about the marks on her body, and threw away the big sword.
"I'm going to take a bath!"
"I will be on a mission for the next few days and will not be returning to Mondstadt!"
"Don't think about me!"
Jiang Yi swung the sword, and the wooden sword stabbed into the wooden box.
"Eye of God?"
He thought about this divine object, which had power beyond that of mortals.
The chances of winning... aren’t great!
Will we continue to be ravaged in the future?
I haven't won once yet.
How cunning!
"Noel, let's go!" Jiang Yi applied the ointment on the wound and changed his clothes.
Noelle, who was stunned, responded: “Ah——Ah——”
"Jiang Yi!"
Looking at Jiang Yi who was about to walk out the door, she hurried to follow him.
It's time to say goodbye again.
"Thank you. I like today's story very much!" Noel's armor was glowing. "I'm going back to the Knights. I'll see you tomorrow."
"Huh?" Jiang Yi looked at the girl, "I thought you would stay at Amber's house at night and continue to supervise me?"
"I'm a big nuisance to Mondstadt when I climb out the window in the middle of the night!"
"You...you climbed through the window in the middle of the night?" Noelle was dizzy. "Dark Night Hero?"
Jiang Yi coughed for a while.
"You flatter me too much!"
"Alright! I won't tease you anymore, go back!"
Noelle asked, "Were you teasing me just now?"
"No!" Jiang Yi said unhappily, "I'll call a carriage for you!"
"The Knights' Headquarters! Pay attention to the road, safety first." Jiang Yi took out Mora and said to the coachman.
It’s a dark day, don’t get into a car accident.
Noelle returned to the Knights, visited Captain Jean, and cleaned the dormitory of the Knights of Favonius.
I went back into the library and took out my notes.
"The meaning of trivia, the meaning of being a maid, the dream of becoming a knight..."
Holding the notebook, he went to the main square in the upper town, looked up at the tall statue of Barbatos, and prayed quietly.
As if possessed by some mysterious force, I entered the cathedral again and went to the cemetery at the back.
Stood in silence for a long time.
I swear to be kind to the weak, I swear to stand up to violence, I swear to fight all wrongs, I swear to fight for the defenseless...
The oath of King Arthur and her knights echoed in Noelle's mind.
It leaves a profound mark.
"Eight virtues: humility, honesty, mercy, bravery, justice, sacrifice, honor, and soul..."
Back in the dormitory, I carved virtues and sins on the inside of my gauntlets as a warning.
"The Knight King's virtues come from Merlin's teachings, and hers come from Jiang Yi."
She looked out the window, her eyes going out into the wilderness.
Monsters, wind dragons, demon beasts and white dragons.
Gently swing the sword.
"I can!"
"I will learn all the virtues and strictly demand myself to be the best knight."
Virtue and spirit are engraved in the heart, and the rock element condenses into a golden "Sword in the Stone".
"Official knight selection..."
"God of the Wind! Please look at my oath!"
Tiny golden dots of light sparkled in the room, and the Eye of God on his waist shone as brightly as the sun.
“I have always followed…”
Vow, will and strength drive the sublimation of body and soul.
Noelle was so determined.
The sword that slays the white dragon.
An ideal place that protects everything.
A scabbard that will not be injured or bleed.
"Attack, shelter, heal..."
"I can!"
"I have everything Arthur has!"
"I will be the knight who protects Mondstadt and defeats the Wind Dragon!"
"...The oath guides me..."
The golden light shines on the dormitory forever.
The silent power displays tremendous might.
Is this story... written this way?
