Chapter 346 The Big Brother Who Sings for a Living—
Seeing that Lisa didn't know where this mysterious island was, Paimon lowered his head in disappointment.
"I thought Miss Lisa was already an expert in this field."
Hearing this, Lisa smiled and turned around, saying:
"Well, I'm just a librarian, I don't like to travel around. Little Claire, do you want to go to the island? It might be a scary place."
"Klee's going!"
Seeing how decisive Keli's answer was, Lisa smiled.
"Haha, that's really brave. Well, I can't deliberately scare the child then. But it would be better if Little Keli had someone accompany her, like someone trustworthy like Little Cutie."
As she spoke, Lisa looked at the three adorable creatures, Huiyuan, Ying, and Paimon.
Feeling that gaze, Huiyuan couldn't help but shiver.
Is the word "cute" appropriate to describe a general?
At this moment, Paimon asked, "Isn't Klee scared?"
"I'm scared, but... Klee is even more scared of not being able to be Dudu's family... Dudu is very important, and Klee absolutely cannot lose to the Great Demon King! So Klee needs to ask for leave, and only after she takes leave can she go to the Golden Apple Islands and find the Great Demon King Dudu."
"Ask for leave?"
Hmm, why do you need to take leave?
Claire didn't have to go to school like other children, and she didn't have a job either.
The next second, Klee gave her answer.
“Klee is a knight. Jean said that Klee needs to ask her for leave before going on a long trip.”
"Are you going to ask for leave now? We don't even know where the island is!"
Seeing Paimon's certainty, Huiyuan shook her head and said:
That's incorrect—
"Hey, Yuanbao, do you know?"
"I don't know, but... there's a wind sprite-like creature that definitely knows. Before we go find him, let's ask for leave from the band leader, Lisa..."
Just as Huiyuan was about to blurt out the word "aunt," Lisa opened her slightly narrowed eyes a crack.
"What did you say?"
"Haha, goodbye, Sister Lisa."
After saying that, Huiyuan's feet sparked as he disappeared from the spot.
It's really weird. He's already powerful enough to rival a demon god, so why is he still afraid of people like Lisa and Yura?
Inside the office, Barbara and Jean seemed to be chatting when Claire burst in.
"Captain Jean, Ke Li needs to ask for leave; she's going on a long trip!"
Qin paused, looking at the adorable little sun in front of her, then glanced at the three people following behind and said:
"Klee? Ah, Huiyuan, the Traveler, and Paimon are here too."
Upon recognizing the person, Barbara greeted them.
"Hey everyone, long time no see! How have you been?"
Ying scratched her head, looking embarrassed, and said:
"Did I disturb your girls' gathering?"
Upon hearing this, Qin almost spat out her water and quickly said:
"Uh! Of course not. Klee, what's with the sudden request for leave?"
"Klee's going to the Golden Apple Islands to see the Great Demon King Dudu! Otherwise, otherwise he'll steal Dudu away!"
Barbara was puzzled when she heard Claire say those words in a flustered manner.
"The Great Demon King? He stole Dudu?"
No way! Who's so bold as to threaten Spark Knight, Mondstadt's strongest warrior?!
It's terrifying to think about closely, and terrifying to think about superficially!
Seeing Barbara's concern, Claire began to explain.
"Waaah... He doesn't believe Klee is worthy of being part of Dudu's family... Klee has to prove herself. Knight of Honor and Dawn will help Klee, right?"
Hearing these words, Qin initially thought that Keli had read some scary fairy tale, but she only believed it after seeing Keli's serious eyes.
Looking at Ying and Huiyuan, the troupe leader Qin sought an answer.
"Traveler, Huiyuan, is that right?"
Ying nodded and said, "Klee is telling the truth."
Seeing this, Huiyuan nodded in agreement.
Having received an affirmative answer, Qin began to think.
"I've never heard of the Golden Apple Islands...where is it?"
"Klee hasn't heard of it either, but Sister Lisa said that someone must know!"
"...a place even Lisa doesn't know about?"
After a moment of thought, Qin's eyes gradually filled with worry.
Seeing this, Ying pondered for a moment and said, "Hmm, I have some ideas."
"Is that so? Since the traveler says so, it must be a rather mysterious land... But I'm sorry, I cannot approve Klee's application to go out."
Hearing this, Klee became anxious.
"Why is Klee going?!"
“Even if the mysterious islands do exist somewhere, we can’t tell if it’s safe there. I can’t let Klee go to a risky area.”
"If we don't go, Dudu might be taken away... Klee, Klee doesn't want to lose Dudu..."
Barbara looked at the pitiful little Cleo with concern in her eyes.
This little guy is so cute, it's impossible not to love him!
However, Qin was adamant that she would not approve the application unless her safety was guaranteed.
"Furthermore, how do you intend to get to the archipelago? I cannot approve it until a specific, safe, and reliable method is found."
Hearing this, Huiyuan was also in a dilemma.
Although it allows one to fly through the clouds, this mysterious magic is probably not safe enough for Qin.
What if we encounter extreme weather during the flight... such as typhoons or thunderstorms? Can these soft, fluffy clouds withstand it?
Just then, Barbara winked at Ying, hinting, "Let's talk outside."
Seeing this, everyone said goodbye to the leader of the ensemble and then followed Barbara outside.
After confirming that Qin hadn't followed, Barbara said:
"Can you think of a way to get to the island?"
Upon hearing this, Huiyuan replied, "Wendy, he definitely knows."
Paimon and Ying nodded in agreement upon hearing this answer.
Upon hearing the name, Klee instantly remembered... from the last Flower Festival...
"It's Wendy! I remember that older brother who busked!"
Seeing Klee address Wendy that way, Ying gave Paimon a reproachful look.
"Paimon, you're corrupting the children!"
"Eh...is it...my fault?"
Well, Paimon, you're not only failing to learn good things yourself, but you're also leading the kids astray!
It seems it's time to learn how to cook emergency food.
At this moment, Klee asked, "Can Wendy help Klee?"
Paimon nodded and affirmed, "Of course! Don't let his seemingly idle lifestyle fool you; he's actually incredibly capable!"
Having learned how to get to the Golden Apple Islands, Barbara's worried expression softened, and she smiled.
“The Knight of Honor and the General of the Dawn are really reliable. Since they are your friends, there must be no problem. Here’s what we’ll do: I’ll try to persuade Captain Jean. You all know she’s a very serious person, so I think it might take me a little time… Klee, please trust me, okay? I’ll do everything I can to help you.”
"Yes, Klee can wait."
"Great! Then let's meet tomorrow afternoon in the square in front of the church. Look forward to my good news, I'm sure I'll succeed!"
