The Weapon Master Shall Never Die Bare-Handed in Genshin Impact [86]

“Just now, when you attacked me, the wolf pack got a little upset.” Razor planted his claymore firmly into the ground and used it for support as he explained, “And… because I helped you, the ambush was disrupted. The boars were scared away. No prey. Hungry.”

“So, it’s because Mr. Jax attacked you that the wolves were so angry?” Paimon exclaimed, still shaken. “Mr. Jax, maybe you should apologize to Razor!”

“He used the axe’s blunt side, didn’t go all out,” Razor replied. “Like… a greeting.”

Lumine thought for a moment. “Wait, people greet each other like that?”

“Still, the wolves are angry, right? Traveler, we scared off the prey. Shouldn’t we make it up to Razor by helping him catch something?” Paimon suggested to Lumine.

“Our friends from the Knights… every time they help… the wolves go hungry.” Razor shook his head adamantly, like a rattling drum. “Meat turns bad. Not edible.”

“Wait, people in the Knights of Favonius do that?” Lumine was puzzled. “The meat turns bad?”

“Hunting isn’t too hard. If we find a group of boars, we could catch plenty,” Jia Changjiang said, nodding. “How many boars does your wolf pack need? I can grab some for you right now—as an apology. And maybe, how about a spar sometime?”

Jia Changjiang invited Razor with a grin. “You look young, but you’ve got real strength… Who taught you swordsmanship?”

“A tall… man. Name and claws. Both from him.” Razor tried hard to recall before answering, “You… want to train with me?”

“Train? Yeah, something like that.” Jia Changjiang rubbed his stubbled chin thoughtfully. “But for now, how about I go catch some boars with Lumine to help your pack?”

“Good!” Razor nodded enthusiastically, looking adorably earnest. “I will calm my Lupical first.”

With that, Razor darted away with agile movements.

Lumine gave Jia Changjiang a nudge from behind, curiosity glinting in her eyes. “Jax, do you know him?”

Before Jia Changjiang could reply, Paimon let out a gasp. “Ah! I remember now!”

“When we ate at Good Hunter that one time, there were hunters talking about a wolf spirit in Wolvendom that looked like a young boy! Could it be Razor?” Paimon rattled off excitedly, but Lumine shook her head. “Wolf spirits are just legends, right? Razor looks like a regular boy.”

“Razor’s probably a wolf boy, raised by wolves,” Jia Changjiang mused. “But it seems he’s interacted with humans. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be fighting with a claymore. Didn’t he mention he has friends and a teacher in the Knights of Favonius?”

“Who could Razor’s teacher and friends be?” Paimon pondered aloud, frowning. “Hmm… I can’t figure it out.”

“We’ll just ask him when he comes back,” Jia Changjiang replied nonchalantly. “Besides, isn’t our current mission to investigate the anomalies near Wolvendom?”

“What’s more familiar with Wolvendom than the wolf pack that lives there?”

“You’re right!” Lumine’s face lit up as she pounded her fist into her palm. “If we get on Razor’s good side, it’ll be so much easier to visit Wolvendom in the future!”

“Razor’s fighting style… feels like my kind of thing…” Jia Changjiang muttered, rubbing his hands together eagerly. “Might even whet my appetite…”

“Appetite?” Lumine gave Jia Changjiang a skeptical look. “Then what’s the main course?”

“You’ll find out soon enough.” Jia Changjiang grinned widely. “It’s going to be interesting…”

In Brightcrown Canyon, Lumine and Jia Changjiang crouched behind some bushes, keeping a close eye on a group of wild boars not far away.

“So many wild boars here in Brightcrown Canyon!” Lumine’s eyes sparkled as she practically drooled. “When we went to Springvale, most of the boars there were semi-domesticated by hunters… But these ones must be wild!”

Paimon chimed in, “Traveler, you’re one to talk! Last time we were in Springvale, you ate the Calla Lily Mushrooms growing on someone’s roof! Poor Uncle Draff thought we hadn’t eaten in days and treated us to roast boar…”

Lumine defended herself. “The mushrooms were just sitting there, looking delicious! And don’t they grow back quickly?”

Listening to their banter, Jia Changjiang shook his head with a chuckle. “Your life sounds like quite the adventure…”

“Focus on catching those boars,” Jia Changjiang said, quietly swapping his axe for a finely crafted steel wolf-tooth club. “Let’s move.”

“Got it!” Lumine’s expression turned mischievous as she eyed the boars in front of them.

Meanwhile, back in the Knights of Favonius confinement room, Klee was tinkering with a small bomb she had hidden there long ago.

At the sound of the door opening, she quickly stashed the bomb under the bed, turning around nervously—only to see Noelle entering with a tray of snacks.

“Klee, I baked some treats for you.” Noelle placed the tray on the table with a smile. “Master Jean said your confinement is almost over. You’ll be able to leave soon.”

“Hmm… I know.” Klee nodded, her head bobbing. “Noelle, where’s Amber? She hasn’t visited today… I made a new version of Baron Bunny for her! It’s amazing!”

“Amber said she was investigating wolf pack attacks in Wolvendom today,” Noelle replied after a moment of thought. “Oh, and Jax and Lumine are heading to Wolvendom too.”

“Wolvendom?” Klee’s eyes lit up. “Really?”

“Mhm. That’s what they said,” Noelle confirmed. “Well, I have other duties to attend to. Be good, Klee!”

After Noelle left, Klee sat on her bed, swinging her legs as she muttered to herself. “Everyone’s going to Wolvendom… even that Honorary Knight… I want to go too…”

“I miss Razor… I really want to go out and play!”

She rolled around on the bed before finally sitting up with resolve. Grabbing her little backpack and trusty Dodoco, she declared, “I’m going to Wolvendom too!”

Pulling out her freshly crafted bomb, Klee deftly unlocked the confinement room window. Unfurling her Wind Glider, she leapt out.

“Escape successful~!”
