The 2 made it back to Mondstadt as they noticed everything was calm, for now

Razor, Klee, and Bennett were in front of Eula, and Klee was behind the slightly older adventurers

"So you haven't seen Amber nor the monster?" Eula asks as the 3 just shook their heads

"I'll be on my way then," she says and leaves, the group reuniting back at their secret tavern, with Venti drunk again

"We're doomed!" Aether panics, but Albedo comes in as Klee hugged her older brother

"I was testing his blood samples again, and other than the whole thing with Kaeya, I found another solution."

"Are you saying we could've used that one instead of the whole bonding thing?" Kaeya was starting to get upset, but at the same time, he was glad they bonded, even a little

"Yes," Albedo says as they all looked at Kaeya, who didn't seem alright for a moment

"We just need to find their main cave," Albedo adds as they all looked at him

"Where is it then? We got many hilichurl camps, but no their main lair!" Kaeya says angrily as Albedo looks at the map he stole from Mika

"According to this map Mika drew, they should be around this area," Albedo circles the area near the Thousand Winds Temple

They plan out of traveling there to find the cure for Diluc, they have 5 days, and hopefully, they can get it

"I'm going to get another drink," Venti hiccups and waddles to the Angel's Share

Bennett and Razor will distract the Reconnaissance Team as much as possible, and they'll try to stay hidden as well

Klee, Aether, and Venti will do everything they can to help the 2 and help from a distance, in case something goes wrong

As for Albedo and Kaeya, they're going to find the secret lair alone, for one, they're both Khaenri'ahn, and they have a plan of taking a small detour

"All right! I am not too happy with distracting Eula, but for Diluc, I will!" Bennett says happily as Razor howls in excitement, but all breaks down when the chair Bennett stood on breaks, falling and hitting his butt hard again

"Ow! Just my luck," he groans as he rubs it, Razor taking him to see the sister who heals with water

"Alright, are we starting?" Aether asks as Albedo nods. Aether takes Klee and they met up with Venti, letting Razor and Bennett know it has begun

As they parted, Kaeya and Albedo looked at each other, and only Kaeya blushed as he looked away

"What's wrong?" Albedo asks as Kaeya turns to him and presses his lips on Albedo's

"Thank you, for everything, and even though we could've done it without him and I bonding, it really helped us get closer," Kaeya says as Albedo smiles, "Don't mention it."

Aether, Klee, and Venti follow Razor and Bennett as both were heading to the Whispering Woods, for some cover and ideas

"Maybe your wolves can help us?" Bennett asks as he wanted to see one, but his luck got in the way as always

"Lupical hunting, I protect you, you and me only," Razor says as Bennett laughs and hugs his friend

"I see, no worries! We can handle it!" He says as Razor felt a small feeling inside his chest, and his heart thumped, not knowing what it meant

They find the Reconnaissance Team, and Eula and Mika were searching for Amber as they noticed something was off, because she's always with them

Razor attracted monsters as he makes it to a tree, and Bennett waits as he uses his sword to make a scratch, then runs to their direction and climbs up

"We got company!" Mika says as he and Eula fought the slimes

Razor watched, and did not realize Bennett leaving, for when he turned, he noticed him running away, with a humongous group of hilichurls chasing after him

Razor laughs silently as Bennett climbs up quickly, the group of hilichurls noticing Mika and Eula and charged at them

The 2 climb down and head away deeper into the woods as they heard the 2 fighting the mob

"My gosh! My luck really comes in handy sometimes," Bennett huffs as Razor nods

They head off and Razor picked up the scents of Klee, Venti, and Aether as they run off, knowing their plan was working, but even with 5 days, their time isn't enough, and hopefully, Kaeya and Albedo will make progress by the end of their time

If not, well then, they must prepare for the worst, which is battling the entire Knights and having to deal with the Acting Grand Master
