Raiden was quick to start the first commission of the journey.

Bennet; "We haven't even eaten yet, can we at least grab something first before we clear out the Hilichurl camp?"

Raiden turned around and eyed him angrily

Kitayuu leaned towards Bennet, "That's your answer"

Bennet rolled his eyes and continued to follow Raiden who was now looking at a map, "Right there" he said

A Hilichurl camp slightly larger than the one Kitayuu and Bennet faced in Monstadt was visible just a few metres on top of the hill that they were climbing.

"Go on now" Raiden said as he sat on a rock.

Bennet and Kitayuu were shocked at what they just heard.

Kitayuu: "So we must do all the dirty work whilst you sit here watching?"

Raiden stood up again and slowly walked towards him until their shoulders met, "Got a problem with that?"

Bennet grabbed Raiden's shoulder, "Look at me you bastard!"

Raiden slowly turned his face with a smirk on his face

Bennet; "Tell me, are you scared of just a few Hilichurls?

Raiden; "No it's just that I thought it would be better that you guys slaughter your own kind, that's all."

Ayaka gasped and walked up towards the commotion, "You can't just go around insulting everyone wherever you go!" She said angrily.

Raiden replied, beginning to get impatient, "If you guys don't do anything, I will make you."

Everyone stood there watching angrily as Raiden raised his arm towards the camp, "Alright, I guess I'll have to make you do it since you refuse to cooperate."

Ayaka; "Hey wait!" She said as she tried to stop whatever he was trying to do. However it was too late. Raiden blasted one of the archer towers in the camp and jumped up onto a tree to get a good view.

Bennet screamed, "You idiot!"

Two Mitachurls, one with a stone shield and another with a massive club charged in with a bunch of hilichurls following behind.

Ayaka who was at the front of the group got ready and took her sword out, Bennet and Kitayuu did the same, getting their weapons ready.

As the Mitachurl with the club swung, Ayaka suddenly dispersed into thin air surprising everyone.

Bennet; "What the?"

Kitayuu then noticed a trail of ice travelling through the hilichurls feet and slowly freezing them, soon after Ayaka reappeared as if she jumped out the end of the trail slicing at 2 hilichurls, killing them instantly.
