I'm a male god in Liyue

Mond.

A certain room.

Amber was lying on her bed, her face flushed as she looked at a book.

This is a romance novel that Xiangling gave her last night.

It is said that at the time, in order to support Zhu Zi, they secretly bought several copies to boost Zhu Zi's sales.

She had no use for these extra books, so she might as well give them to her friends to share the joy.

Amber didn't know which other friend Xiangling had given the book to.

Anyway, she's quite happy now.

The next morning, Xia Zhi woke up feeling more energetic than ever before.

The 100 stamina points weren't wasted.

Gan Yu was still sleeping beside me; she must have been exhausted last night.

Xia Zhi didn't disturb her, quietly got up, and returned to her own room.

Shen He is still sleeping here; she was exhausted last night too.

Xia Zhi changed her clothes, left the room alone, and went to the West Wind Church.

It was still early, and not many people had come to the church to pray yet; only a few nuns were doing their homework.

Xia Zhi quietly walked through the church and came to the large square outside.

Someone is removing the flowers that were offered yesterday at the feet of the stone sculpture of the girl.

Some people walked to the feet of the stone sculpture of the girl and offered the wind god fresh flowers they had picked that morning.

These seemingly devout acts are actually useless.

Xia Zhi asked Wendy.

Wendy's answer was that regardless of whether flowers were offered or not, as long as one truly believed in the wind god, their voices would travel with the wind to his ears.

But that only delivers the wish to Wendy's ear; whether he listens to it, and whether he helps fulfill it after listening, is another matter entirely.

Therefore, the flower-offering ceremony in Mondstadt is ultimately just an act of self-gratification by believers.

After taking a walk outside, Xia Zhi returned to the West Wind Church.

By this time, everyone had gotten up and went out for breakfast together.

Xia Lin still wanted Xia Zhi to hold her hand.

In the morning, Xia Zhi first went to the management office of the alchemy station to apply for permission, and then went to Mondstadt Department Store to purchase a batch of alchemy raw materials. After the application was approved, he took the alchemy raw materials to the alchemy station to synthesize them.

Liu Yun and Ying'er were most interested in this, and the two of them stayed by his side to observe and learn alchemy techniques.

Xia Zhi didn't hold back, explaining as she demonstrated.

Once all the parts were assembled, everyone returned to the Church of the West Wind and assembled them to obtain five wings of wind.

Just then, Amber arrived. Looking at the newly assembled Wind Wings, she exclaimed in surprise, "You guys made this?"

Diona immediately said, "This was made by the boss!"

Amber looked at Xia Zhi: "Mr. Xia, you can also make Wind Wings?"

Xia Zhi laughed and said, "Actually, it wasn't something I did alone. Everyone helped, especially... Xianyun."

Amber was already reaching out to stroke the Wind Wings, her eyes shining: "These Wind Wings are so beautiful!"

"Miss Amber, I'd also like to ask you, how can I obtain a pilot's license?"

"Oh, that? You have to pass an exam first to get a pilot's license, and then the Knights will issue them!"

"How do I take the exam?"

"Usually, you submit an application to the Knights, and then they will assign an examiner to supervise the exam. I have been an examiner a few times."

"I see."

Are you here to take your flight exam?

"Yes, we are preparing for the flying competition, but tomorrow is the first day of the Wind Flower Festival, and we are a little worried that we will not have enough time."

Amber thought for a moment and said, "Although time is a bit tight, if we act quickly, we can get the pilot's license today. I'll take you to find Captain Jean now."

Xia Zhi was taken aback and asked, "Commander Qin? Do we need to ask the acting commander to handle such a small matter?"

Amber nodded, saying helplessly, "Yes, although I also think it's unnecessary, Jean always wants to be perfect in every way..."

Xia Zhi didn't dare to question anything further: "In that case, let's go."

They left the Church of Favonius and followed Amber toward the Knights of Favonius.

On the way, she met a girl named Sarah, a deer hunter. As soon as she saw Amber, she waved to her and said, "I've finally waited for you, Amber."

Amber ran over and asked, "Is something the matter?"

Miss Sarah said, "I have some matters to entrust to the Knights, and I would like to trouble you to pass on a message to the acting Grand Master."

Are you looking for a musical instrument?

Xia Zhi couldn't help but pay a little attention to their conversation.

“I’m sorry, but I can’t go to the Knights of Favonius right now. The Windflower Festival is just around the corner, and the restaurants are incredibly busy with so many customers. But at this crucial time, it seems our food supply route to Springvale has been taken over by Hilichurls. Yet the hunters in Springvale seem indifferent, saying they’re only responsible for hunting. Amber, please ask Lord Jean to arrange for people to clear the Hilichurls from the transport route.”

"I understand."

"If Qin handles it, this kind of thing will definitely be resolved quickly, right? Thank you, Amber. I have to rush back now. Goodbye!"

Miss Sarah left.

Xia Zhi felt this was a bit outrageous.

The task of clearing out Hilichurls could be easily resolved by posting a quest at the Adventurers' Guild; why bother the acting guild leader?

Subsequently, on her way to the Knights of Favonius, Amber received two more requests.

Charles, from "The Gift of the Angels," asked Amber to get the quarterly tax return from Jean Grey, because the wine business is Mondstadt's main source of income, and Jean Grey never minces words on this matter, so she personally reviews every single account.

A request came from the proprietress of the Cat Tail Tavern, who actually wanted Qin to help her find the tavern's cat.

Xia Zhi watched silently, feeling that Qin, the acting leader, seemed to have some problems.

Upon arriving at the Knights of Favonius, Xia Zhi, Gan Yu, and Xia Ci followed Amber into the Knights of Favonius and into Jean's office.

Just like yesterday, Qin was still sitting behind her desk, head down, reviewing documents. There was a tall stack of official documents on the desk, which seemed to never be finished.

"Captain Qin."

Qin looked up: "Oh, it's Amber, and Mr. Xia too. How are you all doing at Westwind Church?"

Xia Zhi nodded: "Very good, thank you for your concern, Director Qin."

Qin smiled and asked, "Did you all come today regarding borrowing books from the library? I'm so sorry, the current librarian is unavailable these past few days, so it may take a while before we can get back to you..."

Xia Zhi said, "It's alright, there's no rush to borrow the books. We came here today to ask Commander Qin to help us take the flight license exam."

"The flight license exam?"

"Yes, everyone is very interested in flying competitions and wants to participate, but because a pilot's license is required, they can only come to you."

“I understand. Flying may seem easy, but it is actually very easy to get injured. Every year, quite a few people die from it. Therefore, the test to obtain a pilot’s license is necessary. I can’t give you any special treatment.”

"It should."

Jean took out a form from the drawer, signed her name, and handed it to Amber, saying, "Since Amber is here, she will be your examiner. Amber has won the Flying Competition for three consecutive years and is considered the best Windwing user in Mondstadt. With her skill level, you can all rest assured."

"That's the best."

"I also believe that Amber will not show favoritism."

Amber scratched her head: "...Oh right, Jean, I received a few requests when I came here..."

After listening to Amber's account, Qin nodded and said, "I will send someone to handle it. You go and help Miss Gan Yu and the others with their flight exams."

Xia Zhi suddenly said, "Commander Qin, your physical condition doesn't seem to be very good right now."

Qin was taken aback, then smiled and said, "Mr. Xia, you're overthinking it. I feel fine."

Xia Zhi continued, "Although I am blind, I am also a doctor. From the sound of your voice, I can tell that your body seems to be nearing its limit."

Qin waved her hand and laughed, "How could that be..."

Xia Zhi smiled and said, "If Commander Qin doesn't believe me, she can stand up and jump around a couple of times to see what happens."

"Jump twice in place?"

"Yes, just two jumps, such a simple move, shouldn't be a problem for an excellent knight like you, right?"

"Of course, since Mr. Xia cares about me so much, I'll get up and jump around a bit."

Qin reluctantly put down her pen, stood up, pushed back the chair behind her, and lightly jumped twice on the spot.

Then, she said with a smile, "Mr. Xia, you see, I've already told you..."

Before Qin could finish speaking, she suddenly felt everything go black, her consciousness blurred, and she fell forward, crashing onto the office desk.
