Under their gaze, Alex spoke his last words: "Don't run, don't run! Wait for me to come back, it'll be quick!"
Then, Alex saw a currently active Teleport Waypoint not far away.
Looking at the map, wasn't this the Teleport Waypoint at Starsnatch Cliff?
Goodness, this place wasn't close to Mondstadt, he had really gotten himself quite far.
After that, Alex teleported away without looking back… "?" The Fatui all looked surprised.
And Rosalyne, who stood before them, looked even more helpless.
This was the second time; last time, he was alerted by their move and ran away. This time, they finally caught him, but… tell her, how do you catch someone like this, who teleports away at the drop of a hat? Would tying his hands and gagging him restrict his abilities?
Rosalyne decided to try it next time. Next time she encountered him, she would tie him up completely, drag him into a dark room, and hang him!
However, he said to wait here, so would he appear again in a while?
Hmph, in any case, she had plenty of time, so waiting here until evening was perfectly fine.
Thinking this, Rosalyne immediately had the Fatui set up camp there.
She wanted to see who he could bring over! No one would be effective, not even a god!
"Wuwuwu!" Alex arrived at Palais Mermonia and quickly ran towards Neuvillette's office.
There was an invincible Hydro Dragon Sovereign here, a power comparable to a god!
Feeling wronged, Alex pushed open the door without any hesitation.
"Mr. Neuvillette has gone to the Opera House to preside over a trial," Sedene said, looking at Alex who was about to push the door open.
Inside the door, there was indeed no one!
Darn it, he wasn't here… but Neuvillette wasn't easy to get to come out either.
It didn't matter anymore.
"Oh…" Alex replied obediently.
Then he quietly closed the door.
"Ah!" Just then, an incredibly familiar exclamation came from behind Alex.
Alex turned around and saw Furina holding a large strawberry cake.
"Why are you here? Quickly, help me hold this!" Furina said, unceremoniously placing the large cake in her hand into Alex's hands, then pushed open Neuvillette's office door again.
Well, Alex could only follow Furina inside first.
It seemed that even though Neuvillette wasn't here, Furina didn't mind and went to the side to start brewing black tea for herself.
Black tea was good, she couldn't drink his fruit drinks every day!
"Gulp, gulp!"
"Ah~~!" Finally, Furina let out a cry of satisfaction.
Looking at the nearly empty glass of pineapple juice, she nodded contentedly: "pineapple juice is also delicious."
And the black tea, meanwhile, continuously entered Alex's mouth; the black tea was quite good.
"Want some?" Furina pulled out a spoon and plunged it into the large strawberry cake on the table.
Well, I thought she was carrying a large cake to give as a gift to someone, or for a birthday. Turns out she was going to eat it herself!
Alex quickly waved his hand and shook his head: "You eat it yourself, I still have something to do, I'm leaving first!"
Having said that, Alex stood up angrily. He left with heavy steps.
He couldn't swallow that insult! And his 100,000 Primogems, he absolutely had to extort them with the Gnosis today!
"Hm, what's wrong? Did someone bully you?" Before Alex had gone far, Furina's voice came from behind him.
The clever Furina actually saw at once that he was being bullied in this state.
If you ask her how she saw it at once, it's because you haven't been bullied enough.
No, as a god, how could she not see through such a small matter? Furina put her hands on her hips proudly.
"Oh, no, it's just a small squabble," Alex turned around, scratching his face sheepishly. He really couldn't bring himself to tell her he had been bullied.
"Oh, I just saw that my subordinate, Clorinde, is resting upstairs in the Maison Gardiennage, why don't you say hello to him?" After Furina finished speaking, she no longer looked at Alex, but scooped a large spoonful of cake into her mouth, making her cheeks bulge.
"Yay! That's great! I'm going to find Clorinde!" Alex was happy. With the top fighter Neuvillette absent, he had actually thought of Clorinde.
He had originally thought of using the old loudspeaker to call him, but now that he heard Furina say this, it was even better.
Saying that, Alex left here, closing the door behind him, and waving goodbye to Furina.
Furina, with her mouth full of cake, nodded in acknowledgment.
"Help me! Clorinde!!!" Alex shouted immediately after pushing open the door to the Maison Gardiennage.
"Hm?" Clorinde, who was lying on a wooden chair, holding a script in his hand, put down the book and looked at Alex in confusion.
Was this person trying to drag him to fight monsters again?
But he had just managed to rest and wanted to read this new script. Only by deeply understanding the script could he be a better host for the "Tabletop Theater."
"Wuwuwu~" Alex walked over and sat next to Clorinde, then made a glass of pineapple juice and placed it in front of him.
Clorinde looked at the new yellow juice. Although he wasn't particularly fond of sweet fruit drinks, all the fruit drinks he made were delicious.
Picking up this new juice, Clorinde drank it directly.
After a few sips, Clorinde nodded. The taste of this drink was as good as expected.
"Speak, what do you want me to do?" Clorinde slowly said in a deep voice.
After a while, Alex slowly opened his mouth: "That… I was bullied."
"Oh, then hit back," Clorinde responded blandly.
"Can't beat him, can't beat him. That's La Signora Rosalyne, the Eighth Harbinger of the Fatui," Alex said, waving his hands.
His attacks hadn't even made her enter the second phase before he was mercilessly defeated.
"Oh, so it's the Fatui Harbinger… Who? La Signora? How did you provoke her?" Clorinde's response was still bland, but suddenly, he sat up straight and looked at Alex, with a look of gossip in his eyes.
This was truly unexpected news, he actually fought with the Fatui Harbinger: La Signora.
That's really, too cool!
"gnosis of anemo," Alex said, taking out Venti's gnosis of anemo.
"Ah?" Clorinde stood up directly, looking at the chess piece constantly flowing with Anemo energy in front of him.
"This, is a Gnosis? And the Anemo Archon's? How did you get it? Lord Barbatos, the Anemo Archon, could it be that you…" Clorinde's meaning was self-evident as he spoke the last part.
