"So this is the famous Archon statue in Monstadt?" Ren asked the beautiful girl next to him.
"Yes, this statue is the most historic object in the city of Monstadt. Many people often pray in front of the statue so that their prayers will be heard by the Anemo Archon." The beautiful girl who answered Ren's question was Amber. She was currently guiding Ren to interesting and nice places in the city of Monstadt.
"Is that so... Is there any other good place in Monstadt I need to know about?"
"Hm... How about a visit to the Knights of Favonius?"
"Is it okay for me to go there?"
Amber smiled and said. "It's okay, Ren! Actually the Knights of Favonius is open to the public, because it also has a public library in it."
"Alright then, let's go over there."
"Un, just leave it to me!"
Ren then followed Amber who was walking in front of him. Actually today is Ren off work which means he temporarily closed his bookstore for 1 day.
He is currently strolling in the city of Monstadt, with Amber. How did he meet her? Well, this morning the two of them met by chance, while he was strolling in the town square of Monstadt.
Amber seemed to have finished her patrol for today, so she had some free time and chose to follow him for a walk.
She took him to many great places in the city of Monstadt. For example, such as seeing the famous windmills in the city of Monstad, seeing the popular city fountains for hangouts, adventure guilds, weapon shops, popular food stalls, archon statues and other good places in the city of Monstadt.
Right now he and Amber were on their way to the Knights of Favonius. Many people greeted the two of them. Especially Ren, his current reputation was no less than that of the important people in the city of Monstadt.
He is the owner of the Happy Heaven bookstore, a bookstore that sells manga. Manga is no stranger to people in the city of Monstadt, many of whom have already bought and read manga. Many people already recognized Ren's appearance as the owner of the Happy Heaven bookstore.
The topic of manga is very hot in the city of Monstadt lately, especially after the new manga titled "Weathering with you" was released yesterday. Many people in the city of Monstadt continued to talk about the manga's story.
For example like the people Ren saw when he passed in front of the food stall.
"Aghh! I want to go to Japan!" Said a man sitting in a food stall with a manga in his hand. He is not alone because he is accompanied by his friends.
"I'm the same! I wonder if this country of Japan really exists? I at least want to take a walk in that beautiful country."
"To be honest I'm more interested in the food depicted in the manga, especially the food Hina cooked for Hodaka Ahh! I want to try it!"
"Now that you talk about food in manga... I'm getting hungry."
"Rather than food, I want a girlfriend..."
"...Well, you're not alone. I want to have a girlfriend too."
"Right, right. You're not alone."
The person who said he wanted a girlfriend smiled at his friends and said. "Hey let's order more food and drinks! I'll treat you guys!"
""OHHHH!"" They all cheered happily.
Back to Ren who was walking with Amber. He smiled seeing people talking about his manga.
"Look at them Ren! Isn't that because of your manga?" Amber giggled seeing the reactions of people talking about manga. She was glad that so many people finally knew how good manga stories were. In addition, she also enjoyed walking with Ren in the city of Monstadt today.
In her mind she wondered. 'Isn't this like a date?'
Amber's cheeks reddened when she thought about that. She walked a little faster, so that Ren wouldn't see her face.
"Yeah, good to know so many people like my manga." This makes Ren even more motivated to continue making manga. He continued to follow Amber who walked in front of him, and he did not realize that Amber's beautiful face was blushing at that time.

Meanwhile, in a room.
A red-haired man was reading a book which was called manga in his hand. This manga has been popular in the city of Monstadt since a few days ago, and he just heard the news about it this morning from his secretary.
He somewhat regretted being late knowing the news about the manga beforehand. Because this manga turned out to be a very good read, but now it didn't matter, because he was reading the manga in his hands.
Actually the manga in his hands belonged to his secretary, and he borrowed the manga out of curiosity.
The manga he is currently reading is titled "Your Name". There were 2 manga series with different titles which he borrowed from his secretary, but his secretary suggested him to read the manga entitled "Your Name" first.
The red-haired man continued to turn the pages of the manga with a faint smile on his usually expressionless face. He looked at the manga page that was about two people swapping bodies with each other, then he saw the beautiful image of the city called Tokyo in the manga.
He wondered if that thing called a smartphone was possible to create in the real world? He is interested in the advanced technology that is told in the manga.
But not only that, he was also amused by the interaction between the characters named Taki and Mitsuha. He saw Taki and Mitsuha who were looking for each other's whereabouts on the hill. But the two of them could not meet, because they were in different places and times.
"Interesting... A love story between two people in different places and times." The red-haired man smiled faintly, then continued to turn the manga's next page.
Time passed as he read the manga, He then looked at the manga page where the adult version of Taki and Mitsuha met on the bridge. The bridge is painted red and has the city of Tokyo in the background. The sight was so beautiful that it made him, who had harbored his emotions for a long time, feel emotional at this moment.
His eyes became slightly teary, and he sighed calming his emotions. Then in the last page of the manga he saw Taki and Mitsuha talking to each other.
Taki asked Mitsuha if the two of them had met before, and Mitsuha replied that he felt the same way. After that the manga story ends with text that reads "Your Name".
The red-haired man closed the manga in his hand with a sigh. He then looked out the window, where there was his vineyard.
His vineyard is called Dawn Winery, which is renowned for supplying the best wines in the cities of Monstadt and Liyue.
He smiled faintly as he looked at the vineyard he had been tending to for a long time. After reading the manga he felt emotional, and couldn't help but remember his past.
His name was Diluc Ragnvindr, born into the prosperous Ragnvindr Clan. He was the current owner of the Dawn Winery and an honorable noble in the city of Mondstadt.
He was a former elite member of the Knights of Favonius, but a past incident caused him to part ways with the Knights of Favonius. Even so he continued to protect Mondstadt in his own way. He owns an intelligence organization that protects the city of Monstadt in the shadows.
Diluc walked to his desk and took out a piece of paper containing the information for the owner of the Happy Heaven bookstore. According to the information he got, the manga he was reading was sold from the Happy Heaven bookstore.
"Ren Kazuma, he's about 17 years old. He's from Inazuma. Hm... Not long ago he did business in the city of Monstadt, but he's already a successful businessman because of the manga he sells."
He then continued to read the paper in his hand. "Oh? So besides the bookstore owner, he's also a manga writer? Interesting... He's very talented for his age."
Diluc rubbed his chin while putting on a thoughtful expression. He became curious about this person named Ren Kazuma, should he meet him?
He then glanced at the other manga he hadn't read on his desk. The manga is titled "Weathering witu you".
"Hm... Well, there's no need to rush. There will be time in the future."
Diluc then sat on a chair and picked up a manga called "Weathering with you", then he started reading it.
