“Let’s go.
You’ve worked in the Seat of Divine Foresight for so long, yet you’ve never even seen your room,” Qingque said as she stood up.
“Ah?
There’s a room for me in the Seat of Divine Foresight?” Keqing was stunned for a moment.
“Everyone who works in the Seat of Divine Foresight has their own place to rest.
It was prepared for you when you first arrived, but you’ve been going home every day,” Qingque explained.
“Is it the same at the Divination Commission?” “Every department of the Xianzhou’s Six Divisions has its own resting quarters.
Didn’t you know?” “I didn’t…” Keqing said, shaking his head.
That is to say, he and Qingque could have lived in the Seat of Divine Foresight and the Divination Commission respectively.
Then they rented a place outside and lived there instead…
“If you have your own place outside, it’s true you wouldn’t need to worry about this.” “You finish your work on time every day and never work overtime, so I never told you where your room was.” Following Qingque, they walked out from the side hall of the Seat of Divine Foresight.
Behind the Seat of Divine Foresight, rows of housing came into view.
“People from the Seat of Divine Foresight usually rest here.
Since work can come up unexpectedly, it’s better to be as close as possible.” “Of course, where you and Miss Qingque live isn’t that far from the Seat of Divine Foresight, so I didn’t tell you about this after considering it.” Following Qingque, they walked directly to the room closest to the side door.
“Your room is right next to mine.
Go in and take a look.
Even when you’re not staying here, someone comes to clean it every week.” Qingque pointed to the adjacent room.
“Alright.” Keqing nodded and went over to push open the door.
The door felt as if it wasn’t locked at all.
Looking at the door that opened so easily, “Sister Qing Zu, are the room doors here never locked?” “These doors use technology from the Master Craftsman Department and are bound to your jade message.
Once you move in, the door will only unlock when your jade message is nearby.” “Alright, your privacy inside the room is absolutely secure, so don’t worry.
Get some good rest.” “There’s still work to do tomorrow,” Qingque said as she walked into her own room.
Only after Qingque’s door closed did Keqing step into his own room.
The room was fully equipped with all sorts of facilities.
Aside from lacking his usual clothes, it was better equipped than his own home.
After standing in the room for a while, Keqing still felt a bit uneasy.
After some thought, Keqing walked out of the room, intending to wander around the back of the Seat of Divine Foresight.
At this time, there were quite a few people around.
Keqing had already spotted several of his colleagues.
These people all looked at Keqing with surprised expressions.
After all, if someone who always went home suddenly showed up at the collective dorms, anyone would find it strange.
The space behind the Seat of Divine Foresight was surprisingly large…
there were even three full squads of Cloud Knights here…
Keqing wandered around aimlessly and reached the Cloud Knights’ Training Ground.
At the edge of the Training Ground, Keqing saw a child, and his gaze was involuntarily drawn over.
The Cloud Knights on the Training Ground all had standard builds, so seeing a short figure in such a prominent place would catch anyone’s eye.
The child was holding a wooden sword, practicing slashes diligently.
The more Keqing looked at that figure, the more familiar it seemed.
Having not seen him in the Seat of Divine Foresight before, Keqing had begun to wonder if he had traveled to a parallel world.
Isn’t this Yanqing, who is always by Jing Yuan’s side in the game?
However, the Yanqing before him looked a bit more youthful.
Keqing walked straight over, watching Yanqing swing his sword.
After watching for a while, Keqing couldn’t help but speak up.
“The way you’re swinging your sword isn’t quite right.” Hearing this, Yanqing’s movements paused for a moment, but he didn’t say anything and continued his slashing practice.
After Keqing sighed, an arc of electricity flashed in his hand, and a longsword appeared.
In the moment Yanqing paused his swing, Keqing used his sword to slice off a section of the wooden sword in Yanqing’s hand.
“Your current height isn’t suited for such a long sword.
Practice with a shorter one first.” Yanqing looked at the shortened sword in his hand, glanced at Keqing, and then continued his slashing.
“Why don’t you go ask the Cloud Knights over there for guidance?
You’re just mimicking their movements, aren’t you?” Keqing let go of the longsword, which vanished into points of light, floating behind him.
Yanqing remained silent, silently carrying out his movements.
Now, Keqing didn’t know what to say.
Wasn’t the Yanqing in the game quite cheerful?
Why was this Yanqing so…
lifeless?
After standing by Yanqing for a while, the Cloud Knights training in the distance noticed them.
“Miss Keqing, why have you come to the Training Ground?” A Cloud Knight walked over.
Keqing turned to look and recognized the Cloud Knight.
This Cloud Knight often stood guard at the entrance of the Seat of Divine Foresight, and they greeted each other frequently.
“Chi Yan, is this child from the General’s family?” Keqing asked directly.
Chi Yan showed a surprised expression.
“I didn’t expect Miss Keqing to know the art of divination as well.
Indeed, the General brought this child.” Chi Yan looked at the longsword floating behind Keqing.
“Is Miss Keqing here to train as well?” “I suppose so.” Keqing also noticed Chi Yan’s gaze, and the sword behind him immediately appeared in his hand.
“But seeing this child practicing foolishly on his own, I came over to take a look.” Ignoring their conversation, Yanqing continued his practice on his own.
“Chi Yan, let’s spar.
I’ll show this Little Fellow how to use a sword,” Keqing said to Chi Yan.
“A spar?
Sure, but for a spar, we should change weapons.” After saying this, Chi Yan shouted to the Cloud Knights in the distance, asking them to bring over two training weapons.
Handing a longsword to Keqing, Chi Yan smiled while holding an array blade.
“Don’t say I’m taking advantage of you.
I’m much more skilled with these training weapons than you are.” Keqing took the sword, gave it a casual flourish, and swung it a few times.
“It’s fine.
Although it’s not the sword I usually use, it’s enough for a spar,” Keqing said, raising the longsword.
“Hey, Little Fellow, why don’t you be our referee?” Yanqing glanced at them and said nothing, but the sword in his hand paused.
“We’ll start when this Little Fellow makes his next swing,” Chi Yan said, also raising his array blade.
Yanqing looked up at the two of them and swung his sword down.
The moment the sword swung down, Keqing and Chi Yan charged at each other simultaneously.
The array blade was a long weapon after all.
Just as Keqing entered Chi Yan’s attack range, the array blade was already slashing down.
Keqing’s forward momentum didn’t falter.
Instead, upon seeing Chi Yan’s attack, he took a step and, while leaning forward, dashed to Chi Yan’s side.
Just as Keqing’s sword was about to sweep across Chi Yan’s body, the hilt of the array blade blocked the edge.
The blade scraped against the hilt, sending out a shower of sparks.
While blocking Keqing’s attack, Chi Yan directly drove his knee toward Keqing, but Keqing blocked it with his hand.
The moment his knee was blocked by Keqing’s hand, Chi Yan knew he had lost.
“It seems I was overconfident.
Miss Keqing, I admit defeat.” After forcefully pushing Keqing away, Chi Yan immediately spoke.
“Sorry, it’s been a long time since I’ve sparred with anyone,” Keqing said.
“With Miss Keqing’s abilities, you could be a Vanguard Guard even among the Cloud Knights.
Why would you be a Strategist?” Chi Yan set down his weapon and flexed his fists.
“Whether a Cloud Knight or a Strategist, isn’t it all to protect the Xianzhou?” Keqing said, beginning to practice with the sword.
The spar only lasted one strike.
He had originally wanted to show Yanqing how to swing a sword in combat, but now he would just practice normally.
Seeing Keqing starting to practice, Chi Yan said to Yanqing, “Although I don’t know your relationship with the General, you should watch closely how Miss Keqing swings her sword.” “We don’t use swords much, so we can’t guide you.
Having someone demonstrate for you is much better than practicing blindly on your own.” After saying this, Chi Yan patted Yanqing’s head and left.
At this time, Yanqing stood beside Keqing, watching how he swung the sword.
After watching for a while, Yanqing began to imitate him.
When practicing the sword, time passes very quickly.
By the time Qingque came to find Keqing for dinner, Keqing was already standing beside Yanqing, correcting his movements.
