Chapter 44 - Chapter 44

Hiroshi clicked his tongue and counted the revenue of the Mondstadt Branch during the first hour it opened in the morning.

This wave, the fragrance of wine was not afraid of the depth of the alley.

Thanks to yesterday's "flirtatious" action with Lumine on the main gate bridge, Amber obviously reported the matter directly to Acting Grand Master Jean. Therefore, he didn't have to put in the effort to advertise his opening.

Amber and Kaeya had both attracted Captain Jean, and the most important figures of the Knights took an Eevee, Squirtle, and others back. If nothing unexpected happened next, the remaining generals of the Knights of Favonius would come to the door one after another.

In the Customer Group Chat, six new people joined in batches.

The group chat atmosphere was more lively than ever.

Keqing: I watched the battle video of the Knights. The level was unexpectedly high for beginners.

Hu Tao: ...If it were me now, I would never lose to them. My Gible just learned another skill! Hmph.

Xiangling: @HuTao, hey hey, my Larvesta is also growing. When I go back to Liyue and draw the second Pokémon, can we compete again?

Hu Tao: Humph, that's exactly what I meant!

Ningguang: @Jean_Gunnhildr, a famous name that I have admired for a long time. Welcome to the circle.

Jean: @Ningguang, the name of the Tianquan of the Liyue Qixing... no one knows it better! It is an honor.

Tartaglia: The two of you above should stop bragging about each other in business language. @Mondstadt_Group, give me an answer. Did any of you in Mondstadt draw a 'Starter' (Royal Three)?

Lisa: I drew Squirtle.

Hiroshi: Squirtle is one of the three Starter Pokémon in the Kanto region. The other two are Charmander and Bulbasaur. They are considered the ultimate seniors among all Starter generations.

Tartaglia: ...(Jealousy makes me secluded)! Why can't I draw one?!

Hiroshi: @Tartaglia, there was once an opportunity in front of you (Fennekin)...

Tartaglia: Kneel down. Please stop talking, Mr. Hiroshi. I have deeply realized my mistake... (T_T)

Hiroshi: @Ningguang @HuTao, the above are the lucky ones who chatted about Pseudo-Legendaries in this group. So in Mondstadt, who is the next owner of a Pseudo-Legendary?

Hu Tao: (Akimbo stance) This Director holds the first Gible in all of Teyvat! Head high, chest high!

Ningguang: One Billion Mora. Pseudo-Legendary. Shiny variant. Even if the Pokémon generations roll in the future, it will be difficult for a Shiny Pseudo-Legendary to appear again anytime soon.

All Mondstadt Members: ... (Silence of Envy)

Rosaria: By the way, is 'Cresselia' a Pokémon?

Xiangling: [Picture Sharing: Cresselia.jpg]

Rosaria: ? ? ?

Jean: Legendary Pokémon... a Sub-Legendary God...

Kaeya: Shocked. It turns out that we were only half a store away from a god-like existence!

Albedo: Oh, everyone is here? It turned out that it was a Legendary Pokémon with the power of a god. No wonder Manager Hiroshi came and went without a trace!

Albedo: @Manager_Hiroshi, the original paintings are nearly halfway completed. Give me another three days to ensure they are finished!

Hiroshi: This matter is not urgent. @Albedo, you can come directly to the Mondstadt branch to collect your Aron.

Albedo: Coming. Can I bring my assistants, Sucrose and Timaeus? Also, @Jean_Gunnhildr, why didn't Klee adopt a Pokémon?

Jean: She's still in solitary confinement for blowing up a lake.

Albedo: Got it.

Hiroshi put down the Pokédex. He didn't expect that Albedo, a painter of such caliber, could be so efficient. It had only been a few days, and the numerous original paintings were already almost halfway through?

Handsome and highly skilled, he is truly a top-notch worker.

"He's progressing so fast, I haven't even started coding the game engine here yet..."

"I can't hold the project back by myself!"

After thinking about it, he decided to leave all the reception work in the store to Cresselia.

There is a Dream God looking after the store.

Hiroshi was very relieved.

This Legendary Pokémon is not a vase decoration.

If anyone dared to take advantage of the fact that he, the Store Manager, was concentrating on coding to make trouble...

Cresselia would educate them on the meaning of "Psychic Power."

"Let me see... with the 'Expert Programmer' skill card, I wonder how long it will take to complete the game when all kinds of tools and software are available."

Crackling...

Hiroshi's fingers tapped on the keyboard at the speed of light.

Quietly, the morning passed.

Afternoon.

Albedo came down from Dragonspine, bringing his assistants Sucrose and Timaeus.

This Timaeus, the NPC usually standing at the alchemy table in Mondstadt, is actually one of Albedo's disciples.

Albedo received his Aron.

Sucrose, the timid bio-alchemist, chose an Elekid.

And Timaeus was even luckier; he got a Horsea.

To know that Horsea has a chance to evolve into Kingdra...

It is the final form of Dragon + Water type. A very powerful sniper.

So far.

Hiroshi, who was addicted to code, had not noticed the business tasks in the Mondstadt area updating rapidly.

In just half a day, he had achieved 9/10 progress. Just one more sale needed for the Ten-Pull reward.

"Sorry, Hiroshi has other things to do in the back office, so I can't entertain you personally."

Cresselia's sweet telepathic voice sounded in the minds of the three alchemists.

Sucrose and Timaeus were trembling slightly.

They heard Albedo repeatedly reminding them on the way that this "Pokémon" is a god-level entity. They didn't dare to move out of line. After receiving their items, they stood obediently behind Albedo.

"That's it."

Albedo was a little regretful that he didn't see Hiroshi to discuss the art direction, but he understood. He was about to lead the team to leave.

Bang!

At this moment, the store door opened with a forceful swing.

Ding-dong!

Albedo looked at the person entering, his teal eyes narrowed slightly, instantly becoming vigilant and cautious.

In addition to being the Chief Alchemist of the Knights, he is also the Captain of the Investigation Team, holding an important strategic position.

Naturally, he is very familiar with the Fatui...

Including the woman in front of him.

She had long legs clad in high-heeled boots, carrying an aura of absolute arrogance and contempt. She stepped towards the front desk, her white dress flowing like ice.

It was La Signora, The Fair Lady. The Eighth of the Fatui Harbingers.
