eula lawrence - the spindrift knight

at the headquarters - 03

Eula carried you all the way to the headquarters with the eyes of the guards piercing her heart. Goodness, these guards are staring at me! Stop staring at me for goodness sake! I'm already suffering from this person's scent!

Keeping her shattering composure, she struggles to say a request. "Greetings to you two! Can you assist me with the door?" With a hint of confusion on their faces, The guards complied with Eula's request.

Eula walked up the stairs in the quarters. "Honorary Knight.. You'll pay!" She whispers. Eula places you rigorously on the bed and she immediately started making a soup for your hangover in the quarter's kitchen. After a couple of minutes, she has finally finished the soup. She places the soup on a serving tray then she arrives at the door. Once she opened the door, the scent of a booze-filled room comes rushing through.

"My goodness.. This smell!" Eula clasps her nose shut as her body is facing the direction of you.

She sighs soundly as she shouts, "Honorary Knight, wake up already!" Those words woke you up in a jiffy. You covered your ringing ears and you finally sat up straight and Eula sets your food.

"Eula.. You could've let me sleep more.." You said in a drowsy tone and Eula came back to that rigorous look you saw at the tavern over You and Eula's tiny quarrel.

She sighs soundly once again and fed you the soup harshly. "Eat this. Maybe that'll stop that inactivity in you!" She asserted. You smiled at her as she reminded you of a certain caring someone. What was his name.. Zhongli perhaps? You remember Zhongli tell you one of his memories of the drunk bard Zhongli treated from a hangover. Well, isn't that funny?

You continued eating the soup until it was done. You saw the proud look on her face when you finished the dish. She took out the dirty dishes to the quarter's kitchen. Right before she left the room, you made a quick request.

"Eula, if you don't have much planned this morning, might I request your company to venture out and help me with my commissions?"

Eula stopped at the door and thought of your request."Well, I don't have a lot planned, all I need is to buy groceries then do my business at the Knight's of Favonius Reconnaissance Company this afternoon. I might as well take up on your invitation."

"Great. If I may, can I take a bath here? I reek of booze and I don't want this room's scent to get worse by the second."

"Please. Get rid of that scent from your body already." Eula walks out of the room and leaves you be.

After a few minutes, you arrive at the exit of the quarters with Eula waiting at the corner.

"Alright, I'll grab groceries before I assist you with those commissions." She claims.

"Well, can I tag along with you? I don't want to be reduced to standing around here."

"Alright then, come along now, Honorary Knight."

You two exit and arrive at the general goods store.

"Greetings. We'll purchase 3 radish's, two eggs, and salt & pepper." Eula bids with a strong and impactful voice. But her tone of voice doesn't match her actions as you observe her. Her eyes were flashing left and right and she kept fiddling with her fingers. When you shifted your attention to the owner of general goods, she was even more worse than Eula. The owner immediately brought the requested items and Eula paid for them. This was the same for each stall Eula bought from. When you two finished purchasing the groceries, You two sat at a bench.

"Finally! We can begin working on your commissions." Eula exclaims.

"Eula, do you usually act like that around people?" You inquired.

"What do you mean? I just act like how I act like. Why? Is there anything you're worried about? Well, if that's the case, no need to worry about it at all." Eula claims with a hint of resentment in her voice.

"Ah, I see. Well, if you claim so, let's get on with those commissions, shall we?"
