My destiny is to go to work in a world that is collapsing

Barbara will not say everything in her heart, but she must express basic gratitude

"I'm not being polite, I really respect the honorary knight. In addition, I have indeed benefited from the honorary knight."

Barbara, the prayer pastor of the West Wind Church, shows concern when facing the injured and tries her best to comfort those who are depressed. She has her own troubles.

"In fact, normally I wouldn't be able to walk down the street unabashedly like I am now."

Hua Yi was slightly surprised when he heard Barbara's words.

"I remember that your reputation in Mondstadt was very good, and you were an idol that everyone loved... Could it be that some fanatical fans were invading your life?"

"！"

Hua Yi's words made Barbara look surprised.

He was absolutely right.

Few people know that the idol that everyone likes has long been troubled by so many likes.

This is not something that can be easily understood, nor can it be said casually.

"There are too many people who like me, which annoys me"——Barbara felt that if she really confided in others like this, she would be taken as a show off or a joke.

Even though Mond advocates [freedom], his thoughts are ultimately limited by the times, and his understanding of some things is not complete.

Idols are a new concept, an unprecedented role in Mondstadt. It is difficult for people to sympathize with the troubles of Barbara, the only idol in Mondstadt, when she has not taken the initiative to express them.

Hua Yi is different. The era of the Collapse World has already given birth to too many idols. Rosalia and Lilia are the idol group of St. Freya Academy. If Mondstadt's idol industry is still in its infancy, It's not even a seed stage, so the world-shattering idol career has already become a towering tree.

If Hua Yi hadn't changed some policies after taking over the position of Archbishop Tianming, and followed Tianming's strategy of"hiding the existence of Honkai to avoid panic among the people", the Valkyrie in the eyes of ordinary people would be a professional idol, wearing armor on a few occasions. Appearing directly on the streets with weapons in hand, all for show

"When they learn that their idol has appeared on a certain street, fanatic fans will gather there to express their enthusiasm and love, or to ask questions that they think they care about. 'Please take good care of yourself', this sentence certainly does not contain any malice, but if there are dozens, hundreds, or thousands of people expressing concern every day, even simply listening will be a burden."

Listening to Huayi's words, Barbara's eyes gradually changed.

She didn't expect that anyone could understand her. She didn't need to deliberately tell her worries or tell her secrets. She just expressed a tiny bit of emotion and was accurately guessed. Concerns.

Moreover, the word"fanatic" used by Hua Yi is really appropriate.

"Considering the existence of the Zephyr Knight, there should be no truly vicious behavior in Mondstadt. However, the regulations maintain the bottom line, not the comfort line. The absence of vicious behavior does not mean that your life has not been affected."

"……The Honorable Knight is absolutely right."

Barbara breathed a sigh of relief, and then smiled.

"But things are different now. As the Honorable Knight has become the most talked about figure in Mondstadt, my situation has also changed."

"Is it? I feel like a fanatic fan is not a character who easily falls in love with someone else."

Transfer and love."

Hua Yi's words made Barbara scratch her cheek, feeling a little embarrassed.

"People's love for me as an idol should be different from love in the common sense, right?"

Barbara couldn't use the term"fanatic fan" like Hua Yi did. She always felt that it would be weird if she said it herself. The kind-hearted girl used"enthusiasm" to describe those fans.

"How should I put it? After I became one of the heroines in the rumors about the Honorable Knight, the fans who were originally the most enthusiastic spent most of their energy on theories with others. Although I don’t know much about it. Their specific theoretical content"

"So that's it - then now it's bad"

"ah?"

"What your fans care about should be the relationship between you and me. For example, the gentle Barbara would show an encouraging smile to everyone who was depressed, so even if she had a chance encounter with Hua Yi, and they talked and laughed during that chance encounter, it was just a coincidence. That's all'. Not counting the banquet at the Knights Headquarters, in the eyes of others, we now have a two-way relationship, that is, we are talking and laughing again, another coincidence."

Hearing this, the girl's expression moved slightly. She always felt that there was some kind of noteworthy problem in Hua Yi's seemingly ordinary words, but she could not find it accurately.

"What does honorary knight mean?"

"For those fans who see you as their dream lover, I am their love rival, and for those fans who see you as their older sister, I am the bad guy who wants to take away their loved ones."

"Eh?!"

There was a blush on Barbara's face.

She looked around subconsciously, and sure enough she found that the street was not empty. Those passers-by were looking here either directly or covertly.

"But we obviously don't have that kind of relationship.……"

"Sometimes, what people care about is not the truth, but what they think is the truth."

Hua Yi's tone was half serious and half joking.

"Fortunately, I am an honorary knight and I also have my own admirers. For the time being, this is still a battle between fans and fans, and it will not affect us."

"fighting?"

"Yes, a battle at the level of speech. If left unchecked, the worst case scenario may turn into mutual disparagement, such as 'the playboy honorary knight is not worthy of the pure prayer priest', or 'except for healing the wounded, he failed to end the dragon plague. A praying priest with such notable achievements is not worthy of being an honorary knight."

"Is it really that exaggerated?……"

"In fact, Qin's abilities were almost questioned. For ordinary people who can only see limited things, the dragon disaster only appeared after the grand leader left. The Fools also became more and more unscrupulous after the grand leader left. Without the grand leader , can the acting captain really protect Mondstadt? People in difficult situations are bound to have random thoughts."
