Tanjiro POV

Before Decarabian was fighting against Crealla at Decarabian Tower, Tanjiro and Anbai have arrive at the center of Mondstadt. 

Tanjiro: So this is a tavern?

Anbai: ... Yes.

Inside was everyone looking at us with wide eyes.

Tanjiro: And I thought a talking goat was surprising.

Anbai: Did you just call me a goat?

I lied quickly.

Tanjiro: No.

Anbai: ...

We enter the tavern and felt uncomfortable as they look at us.

We quickly go to the counter where the bartender is.

Tanjiro: H-hello!

The bartender, red hair, orange eyes. His bewildered face looking at us.

Tanjiro: ...

Tanjiro: This is uncomfortable!

Bartender: Hi...

Tanjiro: ! Hello!

Bartender: Hi... But, are you guys foreigners?

Tanjiro/Anbai: Yes.

This got the bartender and everyone surprise.

Anbai: Excuse me, bartender, we are here for something.

This got the bartender attention towards Anbai.

Bartender: Something? In this city? I think you got the wrong kingdom if you were looking.

Anbai: Something related to Decarabian.

The bartender stop what he was doing and everyone look at us wide eyes.

The bartender put the glass down and stare at Anbai.

Bartender: Why do you want something that is related to our God.

Tanjiro: His voice... So this God is that bad huh? To be vexed by him.

I turn around to see the same face as the bartender, anger.

Tanjiro: Everyone vex their God...

Anbai: We're here because it's related to the barrier.

Bartender: Oh? And why's that?

Anbai: Because a certain someone *looks at me who was coughing* want to teach this God a lesson~

Noticing the gaze towards me, the bartender eyes widened.

Bartender: I see...

Then the bartender signal everyone in the room. Everyone nod and get up from their chairs and begun moving towards the back.

Tanjiro: What the?

Some close the blinds and move sign said 'open' to 'close.'

Tanjiro: What's happening?

Bartender: Follow.

The bartender enter the back so we follow him.

Inside the backroom was a basement. We saw the bartender enter the basement so we follow. When we reach the bottom of the stairs, we see is a long hallway. 

Tanjiro: Do you know where we going?

Anbai: I don't know but be ready. We don't know if it's a trap.

I nod and grip my nichirin.
