Aether's POV:

Arriving in front of the church, I look down in my hands to see the permission slip written by Diluc to take the holy lyre. I guess the stamp is a proof for identity. Entering the church, I spot Gotelinde, one of the higher nuns below Barbara, stopping in front of her, I speak, " Excuse me Gotelinde, I am here on regard to a task from the acting-grandmaster.

"Ah! its the savior. Its a honor to meet you!. can I see the proof of identity?". I hand over the slip by Diluc. Reading the contents, her eyes widen a bit before she looks back and says " I will have to show this to deaconess regarding the request, this authorization is above my level. I nod my head as I watch the nun walk in a hurry towards Barbara's office, I sit at one of the tables as I close my eyes.

I slowly start circulating anemo throughout the body. Once I got the hang of the feeling I increase the speed of circulation while keeping the quantity to a minimum. Opening my eyes, I feel my body light as air and my vision being more zoomed and able to notice the most minute details.

I turn towards Barbara as she approaches quickly with a wooden lyre in her hands. I give a wave in greeting as Barbara stops in front of me, taking a small breadth, she says " Please make sure to not let anything happen to the holy lyre der Himmel, it is the oldest relic which belongs to our god and is the what we the church protects in his name. I hope you can fulfill this request of mine.". 

Staring at Barbara's resolute face for a bit, I sigh as I speak, " I will try my best to make sure that nothing will happen to the lyre Barbara.", Sighing in relief, Barbara hands over the lyre, I teleport to the city quickly making my way to the headquarters. Opening the door, I enter bringing out the lyre out of my inventory blet and hand it over to venti. Inspecting the lyre, Venti exclaims, " the patterns of the wind carved on to the rosewood... and the string fell cool to touch too.!".

Jean quickly asks " Well Lord Barbatos, do you believe you can still summon Dvalin with this?". Venti sighs, shaking his head as he says " Although the lyre seems to be in good condition, it has not been used for over thousand years that I was asleep, so naturally the anemo energy has been emptied out.". 

"Do you have a solution for it?", Venti points at me as he says " You my friend, are the solution for this. You see Dvalin is in pain and his tears consist on highly concentrated anemo energy which is corrupted due to the abyss mages. And our hero Aether, containing the purest form of elemental energy apart from the gods, should be able to purify it and use it to restore the lyre!.".

Jean hmm's in thought looking at Aether as she points out " hmm. it is true that Aether's elemental energy quality is extremely refined.". Diluc then looks at Venti as he asks " well?, if you can point out the location of these crystal, I can deploy amber and her team to gather them quickly for us by tomorrow.". 

Smiling, Venti tells the locations to Diluc as he leaves to inform Amber. Seeing that we have time, I leave the room to go to the library, I then suddenly the library door being pushed open violently as I see Lisa with a smile on her face but her face is tightened up. I was about to walk away but.

"Ah! perfect timing Aether!, can you please accompany me to get back books from some people who are way past their due date to return the books." I sigh well, I guess I am free, I nod as I speak " Alright fine!. who are we going to first?". " We are going to the souvenir shop called with wind comes glory.". I nod as I put a hand on her shoulder and teleport to the city center.
