The whole ruckus was dealt with when the knights responded after getting a report from one of the cavalry's captain men which are on undercovered.

"Looks like you draw some huge attention." Aether said as the spindrift knight rolled her eyes. "Hmph, and here i was going to enjoy my job. Until a certain man stole my spotlight.

"Okay, first of all. I just saved you by skin your teeth, therefore you owe me, and second. Well that can be arrange." Kenji raised an eyebrow as a knight approaches them.

Hubert one of the respondent walk between and filled them in. "Captain Eula, thanks for taking care of this, leave this to us and I'lll handle the report to the acting grandmaster."

"It's fine, i happen to be here that's all." Eula simply replied as the knight.

This lady. Kenji noticed that his body just got shocked by an electro. As he is somehow familiar from the spindrift knight.

"Now as for you!" She points at the demon who also points to himself as well. "Me? What is it?"

"From this forward, you shall not let your guard down! Because vengeance will be mine!"

"Oh boy, she really did it." Paimon just looks at Eula deadpanned while Aether could only stare at them.

"That's Miss Eula for you." Venti giggled as the demon turns around with his arms crossed.

Argh! Of course she's from the Lawrence family. After establishing the new Mondstadt. Barbatos asked Morax to send the lord of all demons for a favour. Because the Anemo Archon has retired. The lawrence clan, one of the corrupted family nobles rise in oppression. Kenji accepted the job and once again taught them a lesson and stopped their antics by showing his true power if they happen to cross him.

"Come to think of it, does that bring back memories?" Venti smiled knowing what Kenji did back then. As the demon was very uncomfortable. Because he almost destroyed Mondstadt as well.

"Doesn't ring a bell to me." He shrugged off the question.

"What are you talking about?" Paimon asked and yes they are always left behind regarding the demon's past life.

"It's not worth mentioning, and lady if you want to thank someone, it's better to say it in a natural way."

Kenji smiled as Eula stuttered as someone saw through her words. The demon then walks ahead as his companion followed after bidding farewell to her.

"If you'll excuse us, the wine mustn't wait on us." Venti ran off as Aether rebutted. "That's just you."

"Wait a minute! Especially you estranged man!" She used her authority as a knight as Kenji looks back. "What do you want."

"My family told me a story when i was young." Eula explained then proceeds "The Lawrence family rebelled against Barbatos and sought to overthrow Mondstadt."

"Then a single man stood in the battlefield facing the nobles. His signature weapon. A sword forged from the south which is Inazuma. And the sword of illusion it's power can be also rivaled to Barbatos."

"It's you, isn't it?"

Kenji closed his eyes for a second then replied. "This is not the place to talk about. How about join us in our drinks." It was not a question or an invitation. He is simply ordering her to follow him because of the answer she seeks.

Entering the tavern. Aether and Paimon noticed a familiar face, the owner of the Angel's shares, Diluc.

"Hey! Diluc!" Paimon waved as the hot batman finished wiping off the beer wooden mug with a clean fabric towel.
