Xiao and Paimon followed me towards the Knights of Favonius Headquarters.

We were just about to head inside when we saw Amber.

"Hey, Amber!" Paimon and I both greeted her at the same time.

"Hello Y/N and Paimon! And whose that boy with you?!" Asked Amber, running up to Xiao and examining him head to toe.

"I'm Xiao, the Conqueror of Demons and Vigilant Yaksha Adeptus of Liyue." Replied Xiao.

"That sounds like a huge title!" Replied Amber.

"It's equivalent to the Four winds of Monstadt," Xiao replied, with his arms crossed.

"Oh, nice! And Y/N, I also heard from Barbato-I mean Venti made you one of the Four Winds!" Replied Amber.

"Oh yeah," I chuckled in reply.

"So what brings you guys here?" Asked Amber, looking at us curiously.

"We were just helping Jean with a commission, sort of an investigation if you will," I replied.

"Ooh! What commission?" Asked Amber.

"We went to investigate a member of the Lawrence family because he was suspected of having ties with the Fatui," I explained.

"Oh, no Fatui business again!" Replied Amber, shaking her head, "well how did it go?" She asked curiously.

"This guy spoke to us like we were his peasants or slaves, he didn't even give us a chance to explain!" I replied.

"Mortals like him are a headache." Replied Xiao, shaking his head.

"Another mortal that adds to the list of things that gives Xiao a headache." Giggled Paimon in the back.

"This is why I don't take certain commissions." Replied Xiao, with his arms, crossed still.

"Because you're not good at talking with people!" Teased Paimon and then Xiao gave Paimon a warning glare.

"Well, I can help you," began Amber, "you could go look for my best friend Eula, who happens to be from the Lawrence family but she's completely different from them!" Replied Amber.

"Really?" I asked, shocked.

"Yep! Eula is known as the Spindrift Knight of Favonius!" Explained Amber.

"Should we go look for her?" Asked Paimon, raising her tiny eyebrow.

"I guess," I replied.

"She's just up the cliffs of Stormbearer point!" Replied Amber.

"Alright thanks," I replied with a nod.

"She better not be like that Schubert guy!" Replied Paimon as we headed our way to Stomebearer's Point.

We found 3 Fatui agents around the tower.

I took out Dawnbreaker after Xiao took out his jade spear.

"Stupid Fatui!" Yelled Paimon, from behind us.

After defeating the two Fatui agents, we heard a pyro rifle go off.

"Watchout!" Yelled Paimon.

Xiao grabbed my wrist immediately, pushing me out of the pyro bullet's way.

"Xiao!" I screamed just as Xiao dodged with ease as he was about to kill the Fatui.

Suddenly, ice sparkled across us as a light blue-haired lady with her claymore tangoed in the air. She landed neatly in front of the Fatui and swiftly waved her claymore, icing the pyro Fatui agent.

"Vengence will be mine!" Yelled the blue-haired lady.

She then glanced at us, "you tried to steal my commission, I will remember this!" She goes suddenly.

"You must be Eula." I realized.

"How did you know?" Eula asked as she narrowed her eyes at us.

"Oh, your friend Amber told us about you, and that you're from the Lawrence family and the Spindrift Knight of Favonius," I replied.

"I see, but what brings you three here?! Do you think you should be talking after you tried to steal my commission?!" Asked Eula, raising an eyebrow.

"Commission? We didn't know, we're sorry." I replied, apologizing.

"Vengeance will be mine! I'll remember this!" Replied Eula.

"What! We were trying to help!" Protested Paimon.

"This was my commission!" Replied Eula, glaring at the poor fairy.

"Can you two just be quiet?!" Asked Xiao, suddenly annoyed.

"Anyways, what about you, sir?!" Asked Eula, narrowing her eyes at Xiao "I wonder, what kind of business does Monstadt have, that would interest a Liyue traveler."

"Mind your words, Mortal!" Growled Xiao, "You have no respect for the Adepti of Liyue!" Hissed Xiao, as he glared warningly at Eula.

"Adepti?! Similar to what we have, the Four Winds of Monstadt?!" Asked Eula, surprised as she politely covered her "Oh." expression.

"Yes, and Do you really think it's a great idea for a Lawrence Aristocat like you to speak to me like that?!" Asked Xiao dangerously.

"He can destroy a whole city!" Paimon whispered into Eula quickly.

"I am truly sorry but you cannot just assume I am like my family!" Protested Eula.

"Whatever, mortal." Glared Xiao as he looked at me instead, awaiting instructions.

"I guess Amber was right, she's not like them that much, but still got that kind of aristocratic attitude!" Sighed Paimon in the air.

We headed back to Monstadt and I explained to Eula why we went to look for her.

"So you suspect my uncle is behind this? Preposterous! Just because we are the Lawrence family, you accuse my family of such things!" Glared Eula.

"Well, we could investigate together then?!" Asked Paimon.

"Fine! But you must apologize to my uncle if you are wrong." Replied Eula.

"Deal," I replied.

For lunch, we decided to eat at Goodhunter's.

Amber was already there, ordering food.

"Hello Y/N, Paimon and Xiao!" Greeted Amber, waving at us to sit down. 

"Hi, Amber!" Eula, Paimon, and I greeted. 

"Oh, I see you've met Eula!" Began Amber as she looked at us. 

"Yes, the "Vengeance will be mine!" Lady!" Giggled Paimon, giving Eula a nickname. 

"Vengeance will be mine for giving me that nickname, Emergency Food!" Eula replied as she glared at Paimon. 

"Hey! Paimon is not Emergency Food!" Yelled the fairy as she stomped her little legs in the air. 

"We have food right here," I laughed as the food arrived.

Eula just continued glaring at Paimon while Paimon ignored her. 

"Eula always talking about vengeance, but that's just how she is. Nothing you should take seriously." Replied Amber as she explained Eula's way of speaking.
