Protection


He and Ziqun work on making the city safer after what happened, setting protective curses all around and preventing teleportation inside the palace, except some specific spots he only tells Chan and Cyno about.
When done with everything, he lefts Ziqun deal with the prison problem and he returns to Arcanis to make sure they all left safely, plus tries to find clues in the palace about what she has planned.
Done there, he returns to Guyun, exhausted. He goes straight to bed, keeping all his children close. And the morning after, he goes to check on the new guests, both to hear if they have something to reveal and to make sure they are fine.

Evilconquering "You dare acting threatening towards me, human?" He narrows his eyes for a moment but then turns around, making Elton face his back. Trying to act superior!!
"Are you...His children as well?" He gives Chan a glance. He thinks Elton is too.
"I wouldn't dare to use this spear for a mission I wasn't commissioned by Rex Lapis." Technically he has to serve his children, so that legendary spear could as well be used for the purpose. XD
"If I can't leave, you have to provide necessary supplies for their survival. I'll only need...almonds." He is certain Zhongli will remember!!.
"They need five meals a day, they need to bathe without drowning. Then what?"

QiuWu «You wish I was a human», he says slowly.

Chan. «Stop with this useless hostility already… dad wouldn't be pleased if he saw you two argue, just so you know.»
Elton is the Nortrig yaksha, that's why they are in competition.
«I and Cyno, Elton is not his son too.»

«I am the baker.» In Lianxi bakers are taken on high regards, like gardeners in the Shire!!

LeYang. «You are obsessed by Rex Lapis too. You and WooPil will have a lot to talk about.» While he sleeps.

Chan. «Almonds? Uhm… all right.» He is not sure if Xiao only eats almonds or if he is just obsessed with them as snack.
«You will need to watch over them to make sure they won't get hurt. They also need to sleep, but they are even too good at it by themselves, they won't need help. Although… WooPil could feel lonely at night without dad…» Not that he won't miss Zhongli during the day.
«As for the rest… make sure that WooPil doesn't skip his meals.» He knows he has a tendency when he feels down.

Evilconquering "You can't be an adeptus." He is certain he would know.
That's the only thing motivating him in life, that and Venti's music. "I will not go against the will of my Lord and Saviour.
What's a baker. A military title?" He doesn't know what bread is, a total enemy of Antonino.
"Who's WooPil?" He moves his gaze on the children, his eyes falling on him. "Fellow followers of Rex Lapis are my friends."
He doesn't need to eat but he is obsessed by almonds.
"I won't leave their side. Ever." And he means what he says, in every awkward way.

QiuWu «Indeed I am not an adeptus. I'm a baker.» That's his race, not his job.

Chan. «Yes, don't go against your Lord's will, nobody wants to see him mad, get all the earthquakes…» PTSD from even Zhongli got mad at Cyno that day.
«A baker is someone who makes bread and stuff like that, it has nothing to do with the military, he is just joking around to make it sound like it's his species or something.»

LeYang. He points WooPil in Elton's arms. «He even believes that Rex Lapis cares about how many spams he eats in a week.»

WooPil. «I… it's true, dad said it…»

Chan. He wishes Zhongli had said that spam is illegal for Rex Lapis. XD
«Good… unless you have other questions, we should probably head off to help dad…»

Evilconquering "A baker..." He keeps thinking it is some kind of important title, that is, until he is explained.
"I would never fail him nor my contract with him." He will never really accept his freedom now that Zhongli left.
"Making bread is not considered something of high value?" He genuinely doesn't know. XD
"Spam. If he said, I confirm it, you won't have it more than once a week." Strict but right.
He focuses on the children, feeling still pretty much clueless how to handle them. He nods at Chan's words, but he is a bit lost in thoughts.
