Chapter 6 - A Cold Heated Conflict



Following the shocking disclosure that Lumine made to Ben and Amber, they were expected to grill Lumine with additional questions. Due to the fact that it was growing late, Paimon proposed postponing this discussion until the next day, and everyone agreed with his suggestion.

The following morning arrived, and the group of four decided to meet again at Good Hunter to continue their conversation about the matter. Before Lumine and Paimon began explaining things, the four of them were filling their stomachs with Sticky Honey Roast while seated at one of the tables.

"Paimon believes it is time to leave Mondstadt and continue searching the seven nations for information about her brother." Paimon started things off by carrying on where Lumine left off with her words from the previous day.

"Right. I remember you telling me about your brother who had gone missing." Ben uttered these words while he was enjoying a heaping helping of Sticky Honey Roast.

"I guess this is goodbye for now..." Amber sadly said. Having to see your friends depart while being unsure of when they will return was not a pleasant experience.

"It is. But I will miss my Favonian Family. The journey itself, together with the experiences I had and the people I met along the way, will be memories that I hold dear for the rest of my life." It was a solemn statement that Lumine made with a wistful grin, as she acknowledged that she would truly miss being in Mondstadt.

"Hey, don't feel down! You'll always be a friend of the Knights of Favonius and our Honorary Knight. Wherever you may go, and wherever the wind may blow." In a flash, Amber shifted back into her bubbly, upbeat demeanor, which immediately lifted everyone's emotions.

"Let the Wind lead!" Lumine let out a loud exclamation of joy, much to the delight of Amber, and Ben smiled as he observed the interaction.

"That's the spirit! Keep in mind that Mondstadt will always have a place for you." Amber sent Lumine her most heartfelt compliments and words of encouragement.

"So, Ben, how about you? Will you remain in Mondstadt, or will you explore other areas in search of a return trip home?" Paimon circled back around to confront Ben with this inquiry. This was an unexpected question for the hero, and he wasn't prepared for it. Even Amber was taken aback when she learned this, and her expression changed somewhat as she waited to find out what Ben's response was going to be.

Before giving what turned out to be his definitive response, Ben did, as a matter of fact, give it considerable consideration in his mind. "Hmm. I think I'll be here for a while. If I stay in one place, my friends will be able to find me and bring me home faster."

"I see." Lumine nodded, accepting this as a reasonable response from the hero, and Amber simply let out a sigh of relief.

"But if you guys want a cool hero to help you out on your adventures, I'm down to go along. I do have a habit of making it hard for everyone to find me if I'm out of the house." When Ben made a proposition to Lumine about an opportunity, Amber once more felt a touch on edge.
