Running for their lives, paimon and aether are currently fleeing from the knights after committing such a stupid crime...

stealing the Holy Lyre.

Well, it's not entirely their fault...

flashback before the break time, Venti suggested them another way to get the Holy Lyre which was not a good one.

Inflitrating the Church of Favonius.

Although the lyre had been stolen by the fatui before it touched their hands🗿

Paimon: aaaaaaaaaaa! we didn't steal the lyre!!!

Aether: ughhh, paimon... just shut up!

Knights: surrender yourself!

Paimon and Aether started running faster, and slowly the knights were out of sight.

Paimom: *looks at the bar* Quick, this way!

Paimon then enter the angel's share while dragging Aether.

*kring~*

The bell rang as the door opened, and Aether and Paimon quickly went inside without noticing Rimuru and Venti.

They then immediately went to the second floor, also ignoring Diluc.

A second later, about three knights entered the bar as well.

Knights: Master Diluc, did you see a blond young man?

Diluc: *raises eyebrow* hmm? is there something going on?

Knight: yes. actually a while ago, the Holy Lyre was just stolen...

Diluc: ohh? *mumbles* The thief had really bad taste, huh?

Knight: pardon?

Diluc: ahh, no. if you're looking for the thieves, they've already left the bar. they're probably outside mondstadt by now, you guys better hurry up.

Knight: Thank you Master Diluc! Well then...

The knights quickly leave the tavern and head for the main gate.

Diluc: So... mind telling me what happened? *stare at paimon and aether*

Paimon: ahahaha... *scratching her head*

Aether: wait! I can explain!

blah blah and blah~

Aether began to explain what was happened to Diluc, with Rimuru and Venti listened while drinking.

Diluc: Holy lyre... stormterror... fatui, huh?

Paimon: y-yes... we didn't steal that lyre! *mumble* Well... if fatui hadn't interfered maybe we would have stolen it...

as they were talking, the bell rang as the door opened.

revealing a blonde woman.

Jean: looks like you're really hiding out here, hm?

Diluc: Well, if it isn't the Acting Grandmaster, how can I help you?

Jean: You don't have to call me by my title all the time. it's my break time. *looks to aether* So...

Aether: j-jean! *sweating* u-uhmm...

once again, Aether told the whole story. there wasn't a single lie and it was a complete package of truth.

Jean: So you're saying we can stop the stormterror with the Holy Lyre?

Venti: we don't know until we try, that's for sure.
