"We were just orphans... living by the day with no purpose or goal, and now we're here, separated. We had no time to say goodbye... so let's not call it that."
Lucius, a 19-year-old boy, having lived a life full of hardships, is mysteriously transpo...
After hanging out at Windrise, Lucius invited Noelle to his Serenitea Pot, granting her the ability to enter his teapot whenever she wanted. From there, she introduced herself to Paimon and Tubby as Lucius told her that she can also rest here whenever she wants.
Noelle would then offer her services in cleaning and maintaining the house, though Lucius insisted that she didn't need to. She still decided to do so regardless, for she considered it as part of her training.

During the very next day, Lucius walks towards the Adventurers' Guild stand, intending to do some commissions.
But at the stand talking to Katheryne was a male just around his height, wearing cuffed navy shorts and a sleeveless cream-coloured jacket.
Upon noticing Lucius, his eyes suddenly sparkled.

???: Ah, it's you! Didn't think I'd be running into you here... Hehe, I guess it's my lucky day...
Lucius: Uh, hello there.
???: How're your adventures going lately? Did you come here to get a new commission from Katheryne, or to get paid? and where're you going after this? Bet you've got a really exciting adventure lined up, huh?
The male asks question after question while leaning towards Lucius, with a big excited smile on his face.
Lucius: Uh, may I receive your name first?
Bennett: The name's Bennett. I'm your run-of-the-mill adventurer from Mondstadt!
Bennett introduces himself as he extends a hand, which Lucius grabs with his own as he shakes it.
Lucius: Nice to meet you too, Bennett.
Bennett: Ah... I'm talking too much, aren't I... I'm sorry... I was just so excited to run into someone I admire so much... And, uh... maybe a little starstruck, too... haha...
Lucius: You... admire me?
Bennett: Of course! You're the mysterious Traveler, the hero who quelled the Stormterror crisis, and the leader of your own adventure team to boot! If I'm being honest... I'm totally jealous of all your achievements...
Lucius: A Lucius Adventure Team...
Bennett: Yeah, word's been spreading in adventurer circles for a long time now. Your adventure team shows up all over the continent... It might look like you're just handling a bunch of boring commissions, but then, as soon as something big goes down, you're always there!
Lucius: I... have my reasons.
Bennett: Anyway, I just really envy you. You're sort of like... the protagonist of this world, or something. Hahaha...
