Xavier hadn't expected their dynamic to truly be like this.
One was incredibly gentle, the other incredibly irritable.
Even with Balladeer speaking to Nahida like that, Nahida still wore a smile.
She tilted her head and said to Balladeer, "It seems A-Mao classmate prefers to attend academic discussions."
At the mention of this, Balladeer's expression became even more displeased.
This guy was clearly making him choose between two options.
"Fine, if I absolutely have to choose one, I'd rather take the risk of going to a new world than waste my breath on a bunch of idiots."
Balladeer snorted, giving his answer.
"Then Xavier, can you invite me and A-Mao to come to Blue Star together?"
Xavier originally wanted to say no, but seeing Nahida's beautiful and sincere eyes, he really couldn't bring himself to say it.
"Alright, then I'll reluctantly bring him along."
Xavier extended his hand and held Nahida's soft small hand.
At the same time, Nahida also grabbed Balladeer.
A white light flashed, and the two appeared in a brand new scene.
"Ding! Congratulations, Host, for successfully inviting Nahida!"
"Ding! Congratulations, Host, for successfully inviting Balladeer!"
Two consecutive notification sounds rang out, announcing that Xavier's Level 3 system's invitation slots were used up.
Fortunately, his popularity was steadily rising, having now reached 30,000.
It wouldn't be long before he would ascend to Level 4, at which point he would have 8 invitation slots.
"Wow! New guests are here again!"
Seeing Balladeer and Nahida, Hu Tao bounced up from the sofa.
Furina and the others also turned their heads to look over.
"Hello everyone, I am Nahida from Sumeru, and this is A-Mao."
Nahida enthusiastically introduced herself and Balladeer to everyone.
"Yay, it's Sister Nahida!"
Klee already had some understanding of allogene, and she had liked Nahida the first time she saw him.
Xavier had actually invited Nahida over, which made Klee extremely happy.
Klee came up to Nahida and proactively introduced herself: "Sister Nahida, my name is Klee, and I'm a Knight of Favonius!"
"Hello Klee, I think we will definitely become very good friends!" Nahida was also very happy to see such a cute child.
Although from their appearance, their heights were not too different.
"Hello Brother A-Mao, my name is Klee, I'm a Knight of Favonius..."
Klee still wanted to build a good relationship with Balladeer, but she didn't expect Balladeer to interrupt Klee's introduction with just a look, and a very unfriendly one at that.
"Woo..."
Klee was startled by Balladeer's cold and disgusted gaze and couldn't help but take two steps back.
Nahida said with a slight reproach, "A-Mao, how can you be so impolite to such a cute child like Klee? That's not right."
Balladeer, however, didn't care, sneering, "I know him, just a poor wretch abandoned by his parents."
"Waaah wuwuwu..."
Klee, who was already on the verge of tears, now burst into loud sobs.
Klee was usually a very strong child and wouldn't cry easily under normal circumstances.
Xavier clenched his fists, knowing he shouldn't have called this guy over.
Just as he was about to step forward to teach him a lesson, Furina, who had been playing allogene, couldn't sit still anymore.
She took large strides to stand in front of Balladeer, pointing at him and saying, "Hey, what's wrong with you? How can you talk about Klee like that!"
Facing Furina's accusation, Balladeer showed no respect: "I'm just speaking the truth, or are you unaware of the facts?"
"How could I not know!"
"Then you should understand that what I said has no problem, right?"
"Damn it, Miss Alice isn't the kind of person you're talking about, she just has very important things to do!"
Furina stomped her feet in anger. How could there be such a heartless person in this world?
Even a child as cute as Klee, he had to make him cry.
"However, the fact I see is that a mother abandoned his daughter for his so-called important matters."
Balladeer didn't care what Furina said, he only believed in this one point.
"You, you, you... This is infuriating me!"
Furina stomped her feet in anger, but she couldn't argue with Balladeer, who made her too clumsy with words.
"Damn it, Xavier, quickly teach him a lesson!"
Furina then remembered Xavier and directed him.
Xavier was indeed already annoyed, he hadn't expected this guy to dare bully his precious daughter.
His foul mouth was truly unmatched.
If he didn't beat him until Ei didn't recognize him today, then he had gone too easy on him!
Just as Xavier was rolling up his sleeves to step forward, Nahida stopped him.
"I'm really sorry, Xavier, this is indeed A-Mao's fault. Can I talk to him?"
With Nahida pleading for Balladeer, Xavier couldn't really make a move.
So, Nahida called Balladeer aside and whispered something to him, no one knew what it was.
Balladeer's expression changed quickly, sometimes angry, sometimes helpless, and then turning into compromise.
After the two had finished their discussion, Balladeer reluctantly came to Klee's side.
"Klee, don't cry, didn't you say before that Mama is always by your side?"
Yoimiya was wiping Klee's tears and comforting him.
When Yoimiya saw Balladeer walking over again, he immediately shielded Klee.
"Hey, I warn you not to bully Klee again, or I'll have to take action!"
Hu Tao also ran over and pointed at Balladeer, saying, "That's right, Hall Master won't spare you either. Be careful, I'll have Zhongli beat you up!"
What surprised everyone was that Balladeer took a deep breath and apologized to Klee with very little sincerity.
"Sorry, I was wrong just now."
Although his tone was a bit stiff, he at least apologized.
Klee, while wiping his tears, shook his head: "It's okay, Klee isn't mad at Brother A-Mao."
At first, Balladeer was indeed forced by Nahida to apologize, with no sincerity.
But he didn't expect Klee to be so magnanimous, and a hint of guilt even arose within him.
"I'm so angry, I'm really so angry!"
Although Klee was the one being talked about, Furina acted even angrier than Klee.
He stood there with his arms crossed, constantly stomping his feet in anger, looking exactly like a famous scene of foot-stomping from a certain show.
Xavier found it amusing and walked over to comfort him: "Don't be angry, I'll take you out to buy desserts later."
It was a pity Furina didn't learn to change his expression, he immediately exclaimed, "Really? You can't lie to me!"
"Of course it's true. Besides, with new guests at home, I always have to buy some desserts to treat them, right?"
Furina got angry again, feeling so unappreciated.
But in reality, Xavier just wanted to see Furina's angry look, which was both silly and cute, absolutely adorable!
