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

There are indeed many rumors about the guardian of Aru Village.

It is said that this long-standing profession is sacred. The shield used by the guardian contains the blessing of the Red King Akhmar. As long as the shield is held tightly, every grain of sand in the Great Red Sand Sea will obey the call. The guardian of Aru Village can raise a huge sandstorm to engulf the enemy in a moment.

When Candice took over the position of guardian, her heterochromatic eyes were naturally eye-catching. The color was like amber, like the left eye of the golden desert under the sun. It was once regarded as proof of the Red King's descent. People believed that the eye could see through the future and distinguish people's fate. Otherwise, why could Aru Village always quickly identify who was the evil-minded treasure-stealing group and who was the illegal mercenary stained with the blood of innocent people.

But only Candice herself knew that she had never really felt the grace of Akhmar. The guardians in the past had never received the grace of God, and the only evidence that she was watched by God was probably the Water God's Eye on her waist.

Relying on the power of the elements, she was able to go deep into the sandstorm alone, eliminate the monsters, and protect the entire village by herself in a situation where the population of Aru Village was expelled and only the elderly and children were left. Only Candice herself understood the hardships.

The little girl's previous words did not escape the ears of the guardian. Hearing the other party's yearning for Xumi City in her words, Candice knew that when the little girl grew up, she would leave the village, just like the other young people who joined the Gilded Brigade and went to the rainforest to make a living.

Bitter?

No, Candice was determined and had seen the changes in Aru Village. No matter what others thought or did, as long as there were still people in the village, she would fulfill her duties as a guardian and remain unchanged.

Of course, it was even more impossible to be happy because she heard that the children who represented the future of the village wanted to go out.

Even so, Candice still looked calm and explained softly to the girl who greeted her.

"...The sandstorm did not dissipate because of me."

It was because of the blonde girl next to me who split the sky with a sword.

To protect Aru Village and deal with the mixed outsiders, it takes extraordinary wisdom and judgment. Candice did not casually tell the child about Ying's specialness. If she hadn't remembered some things in the past and sighed because of the girl's words, her normal reaction at this moment should be embarrassment.

Commanding the yellow sand with a shield and guiding the storm with a spear are all rumors.

Unfortunately, the guardian's duty left Candice no room for embarrassment. She was no longer a young girl, (cgfb) but the guardian of the fate of the largest settlement in the desert and the present and future of Aru Village.

The overly brief answer made the little girl feel awkward. After all, Candice was also a strict teacher for the left-behind children whose elders had fled to the rainforest to make a living. She disciplined them on weekdays. Children who got into trouble would be punished by copying the calligraphy prepared by the old grandmother in the village.

"Hello, here, this is a gift for the lovely little girl.. "

In contrast, Hua Yi seemed very friendly. He squatted down, his eyes were level with the little girl, and he had a warm smile on his face. Even the little kids who were not good at observing people's expressions and failed to notice that Candice was always gentle to them could feel the warmth of this big brother.

Seeing the golden "lotus" he handed over, the girl felt the aroma of good food entering her nose. Something as exquisite as a work of art turned out to be edible. She had never seen it before.

The little girl, who had said before that she would go to the city to make money and eat delicious food, and whose foodie attributes had been fully exposed, was about to take the gift from the handsome big brother. Halfway through, she remembered that Candice said that she could not accept things from strangers casually, especially food and water. She stopped her movements and looked at Miss Guardian with a pitiful look.

Candice nodded in response.

"Great! ”

The little girl cheered and happily took the gifts from Hua Yi. One for herself and one for her friend, just right.

It seems that the big brother in front of her is not a stranger, but a friend of Candice, so she can accept the gift from him.

The little foodie quickly focused on the "lotus". Sniffing the tempting aroma, her mouth was almost drooling.

"Big brother, what is this? Can I eat it directly?"

"Lotus crisps, a Liyue snack made of flour-based water-oil skin wrapped in oily pastry, embedded with sweet fillings and fried, can be eaten directly."

"Liyue? ! Wow, that's a very far country. Even if you walk out of the village, you have to cross the entire rainforest to get there. Is the city selling lotus crisps also close to the Liyue border like Aru Village? ”

“It should be different. We don’t have such exquisite snacks in our village…”

Before Hua Yi could answer, the girl’s friend murmured first, holding the lotus cake in both hands, tilting her head, with a complicated look.

At this time, Liyue’s human fairy, Lord Special License, did not promote the prosperity of Liyue Port, but touched the heads of the two little girls.

“It is indeed different. Aru Village is located in the desert, facing problems such as lack of water and scarce arable land. It must always be prepared for natural disasters such as sandstorms. It has been standing here for thousands of years, which is special in the eyes of many people. Tenacious will is also a treasure. Did you see those merchants just now surprised by the terrible sandstorm and couldn’t stand the heat of the desert? You can live as usual, which is really amazing. ”

When Candice heard Hua Yi's words, a strange color flashed in her eyes.

She didn't expect that this extraordinary traveler did not talk about the prosperity of Liyue Port, which was well-known throughout the entire Teyvat continent, like the Liyue merchants who came to do business, but praised the little girl.

"Oh, am I awesome?"

"Yes, so eat the lotus cake quickly and don't hold it in your hands to look at it, otherwise the sand in the wind will stick to it."

"It doesn't matter. There is a lot of sand in Aru Village. I've gotten used to it because I'm awesome.People, hehe——Ah~"

The girl's mouth is small, and she can't eat the lotus cake in one bite even if she opens it wide. She just bites out a cute crescent mark on it.

"Mmm...Mmm!"

After taking a bite, the sweet fragrance filled her lips and teeth. The two little girls' eyes were as bright as stars, and they expressed their joy of eating delicious food with vague mumblings.

After chewing it carefully, they were able to exclaim. (To read the exciting novel, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

"It's so delicious!"

"Hehe, it's delicious~"

Ying put her hands on her hips, raised her head and chest, and was very proud.

These lotus cakes were made by her. What is a top chef? It's me!

"Since you like it so much, this chef will give you a recipe as a friendly gift. ".
