Aether visits the group he tasked to keep Diluc's secret, and they all ate calmly as Paimon was sent away again, making her worried and suspicious Aether is not having her at his side
"Well, I am just wondering, how does Diluc feed himself?" Bennett says while stuffed, choking as Razor holds him and tries to make him spit out the food he was choking on
Kaeya and Aether look at each other, and now that Bennett mentioned it, how does he?
"Let's bring him some meals to him," Kaeya says, but even so, none of them would help due to it being small for him
"Maybe Albedo can help!" Klee says excitedly, and the group looked a little worried with having Albedo to help them
"Let's give it a try," Kaeya says, kinda blushing they're going to see Albedo
Klee leads them to the Favonius Headquarters, noticing the Chief Alchemist was out, and according to the note on his door, he went to collect some Starsilver in Dragonspine
"Let's go," Aether says as the group run to the edge of Dragonspine, eating a bowl of goulash to keep them warm for a longer period of time
They went to every location starsilver are usually found, but all were taken, until they found the last location, where a short male, blonde hair, and white clothing was collecting the stones
"Albedo!" Klee says happily, hugging him as he gasped and hugs her back
"Klee! What are you doing here?" He asks and sees a group walking towards him
"Is there anything you need? I'm collecting some starsilver for an experiment Sucrose and I are working on," he says, and they all wowed at him
Kaeya shyly asks, "Well, we need help with something."
"Does it involve with a certain someone?" Albedo asks, making everyone go in shock, thinking he might've figured their plan
"You...could say that," Kaeya nervously says as Albedo smiles, "Let me guess, someone got into a situation and you want my help from one of my experiments."
Aether then asks Albedo if he remembers anyone by the name of Diluc, to their surprise, he answered, "Of course. I was going to the tavern tonight and ask him if he could hand me some wine for an experiment, but it's Sucrose who needs it, not me."
"Well, about that..." Kaeya says nervously again, and now that they have a new member on their team, the group explain the situation, making Albedo stare at them with wide eyes
"The Abyss Order did that?! How is that even possible?!" He then takes them back to Mondstadt, grabbing his equipment, and takes them away from the city and into the Whispering Woods
"I have been trying to find a way to make things grow, but sadly, my potions to make things smaller are temporary, which I cannot be of help, but I can make the food grow."
"That's my big brother!" Klee cheers happily as Albedo takes out a canvas and begins to paint
He paints a variety of food and makes them appear once finished: chicken mushroom skewers, wolfhook juice, sticky honey roast, radish veggie soup, sweet madame, berry and mint burst, and Diluc's favorite, pile em up, a dish made from cheese, steaks, and potatoes
He gets everyone to carry the dishes and Kaeya leads them to Stormbearer Point, carefully gliding down as they made it in front of the cave
They set the dishes down and Albedo used a potion, placing a drop in each dish, making everyone step away as the food grew, the aroma heading into the cave
"Kaeya?" Diluc's voice calls and Kaeya went inside, explaining how Albedo is another who remembers him
Diluc pokes his head out, seeing giant sized drinks and meals and notices the group saying hi to him, making him feel happy
He steps out of his cave as Albedo examined him, "How magnificent. The fact that the Abyss had some way to pull something like this."
Diluc finishes the meals and, for the first time, smiled at them, making Klee be the one to point it out
"He smiled!" She claps, making everyone laugh, and Diluc look away in embarrassment again
"Is it ok if I come back here and take samples of your blood, Diluc?" Albedo asks as Diluc hesitantly nods
They leave as Klee was bouncing around them, making Bennett and Razor join her as Aether laughs, slightly leaving Kaeya and Albedo alone
"Thank you for the help, Albedo," Kaeya says as Albedo fixes his gloves, "Don't mention it. It's what I can do best."
They arrive back in Mondstadt, noticing Eula, Mika, and Amber were looking at the maps Mika had drew
"According to the travelers, they spotted the monster around here, nearby Stormbearer areas, and some say it's probably by the area Dvalin is at."
The group slowly move away, knowing they're starting to have a lead on Diluc, but they'll try to throw them off and give Kaeya time, before it's too late
