Chapter 06: Reunion

On the street of mondstadt city. A young man wearing a loose white uniform jacket with sleeves that stop at his forearms. He also wears slender black jeans that tuck into white sneakers that match his jacket. On his back also carries his katana case on his back while his hand carry a box of pizza

{A/N: swordbag i change to katana case}

Through the street that in past vibrant with many people, now its scarce from it.

'so dvalin already attack mondstadt twice in the last month like the owner of tavern cat's tail, Margaret say. and now many civilians and adventurer leave mondstadt because of it and go to near town. And like the canon, grandmaster varka lead many the knights to expedition and only leave the... weaker one on mondstadt..and jean become acting grand master' I sigh inwardly and go to knight of favonius headquarters.

"Good afternoon sir.. I want to deliver this to the Acting grand master inside.. can I come in?" Gherman greet the guard and confident that no one remember him after 7 years gone. After all he change so much in that years. His hand point at the pizza box on his hand while asking permission to enter the headquarters.

"Hmm? Who are you? I never seen your face and usually its Diona who delivers this" the guard inspect Gherman with his gaze notice he unfimilar and don't have vision, he relax a bit.

'Diona huh? Well she is still inside cat tail grumbling about to end all alcohol in mondstadt' chuckle inwardly.

"I'm Yuta, new employee on the cat tail. Because im new here can you let me in and tell me where the office of acting grand master Jean is?" he put a harmless smile.

"Hmm.. sure okay.. just come in and go left. That's where the acting grand master office is"

"Thanks" Gherman enter the door and critics the guard inwardly 'just because I don't have vision. He let me in? Is that a reason? Or i just thinking too much? Whatever.. what if someone want to do dangerous thing to jean? Sigh. Well jean isn't too weak either.. after all i trained her'

Gherman start walk in then turn to left and knock the door, waiting for answer

After 4 second there another reply in sweet tone "come in"

'Alright~ its jean voice.. I sense 3 people inside.. maybe one is Lisa for another don't know' I open the door and look the grand room inside, on my peripheral eyes. Hazily a tall woman with purple pointed hat lean her torso on the fence opposite bookself look at me with interest. She was Lisa Minci, the Librarian.

'Lisa Minci.. the Boobs monster, umm i mean the mysterious librarian.. truly.. she define what MILF has to be'

While on my right peripheral a tall man lean his back on the wall with his hand cross front his chest and close his left eyes while his right eyes covered by pirate eye patch. He was Kaeya Alberich, The Cavalry Captain Knight of Favonius and His secret job is Agent of Khaenri'ah but only his Brother, Diluc who know these at the moment.. maybe Klee after all her mother is Alice.. one of Witch from Secret Organization, Hexenzirkel.

'is he trying to be cool? Disgusting.' I scoff inwardly while keep putting a business smile.

And in front of Gherman gaze, he meet his childhood friend Jean sit on her chair behind desk with frown on her face. Look at me with scrutiny gaze.

'Her face seems too tired.. sigh'

Gherman put harmless smile as he raise the hand that hold pizza box

"Jean~ Miss me? And by the way.. the security here in Mondstadt sure so lack~ even i can easily Sneak into Mondstadt~"

...

"...you.. How..?" Jean hit a realization after some thoughts

"My my, dear jean~ do you know this cutie? Is he a enemy? Fufu" Lisa look at me with a hint darkness inside her eyes, a spark purple lightning coiling around her hand while kaeya opened his eyes look at me with a hint interest.

"Ahh.. no.. i mean. Ahem! Yes i know him. He is my.. my friend who deemed gone 7 years ago. Gherman. So relax Lisa."

"Ohh its that so~ Alright my Dear.. fufu hey cutie~ im Lisa"

'even tho Lisa have a laid back personality she know how to protect her friend.. good' Gherman thought

"Nice meet you~" Gherman greet her then turn to look at jean "Congrats you've achieve your dream.. and now its mine to achieve so I came back just to say goodbye" He smile before suddenly vanish from door and only appear in front Jean desk.

Whoosh

"!!!" Gherman sudden action make Kaeya and Lisa raised their guard except Jean who still calmly watch Gherman who already front her desk and placing the pizza box

".... I have so many questions right now but.." jean say while hiding her surprised and look calmly to his eyes

"But?"

"Sigh.. don't you have something you need to say to me?" Her tone tremble a bit as she look down avoiding his eyes.

"... Ummm.. I.. umm.. well.. ahem!.. I'm home" Gherman look away from her as he scratch his cheek

'ugh im not good console at people! especially im too shy when other people see me here!' He lampooned and look at Lisa and kaeya..

"Easy everyone.. i'm not enemy infact I'm a helper" he smile

"Jean.."

"My dear Jean.."

Kaeya and Lisa who still don't put their guard down from Gherman while discreetly readily to active their elemental power from vision if something happen seek an amswer from jean

"It's okay Lisa, kaeya.. Gherman always bold and reckless since we childhood but he will not do harm to me.. nor mondstadt" Jean calm them down

"Exactly" Gherman nod shamelessly after jean say that.

"and anyway.. I hear stormterror bring many destruction on Mondstadt. I mean i can see from the walk i have through"

"This... Sigh indeed you are right. The stormterror has attack Mondstadt twice in these month. Make people growing fear and restless.. and the subsequent their action.. as you can see from your walk to here.. many migrate to other town."

Jean helplessly explain to Gherman the summary about Stormterror. While Kaeya and Lisa who already put away their vigilance then silence and listen. Not disturb Jean.

"I see.. well.. i'm here. I will help with these matter.. by the way.. is those delegations fatui people make some noise about this incident?" I ask Jean as kaeya join the conversation.

"I'm sorry that information is classifi-"

"It's okay kaeya.. Gherman would never harm Mondstadt. I Trust him" Jean interject Kaeya immediately. As she look kaeya then turn to Gherman

"..." Kaeya go into silence again and laid his back onto the wall then close his eyes, seemingly amused by Jean oddity behavior

'Trust huh? What a distance word.' Kaeya think inwardly.

"Yes the delegations from Snezhnaya try negotiate about the security of Mondstadt. the term is let the Knights of Favonius give up and give authority to Fatui and let the KoF put more focus how to handling The Stormterror attack."

"That actually great thing isn't it? Its can make the Knights of Favonius more faster to end this terror"

"From viewpoint People if Mondstadt yes.. but from my viewpoint.. No" Jean gave Gherman serious look

I smile look at her

'She grow up.. i still remember she used to be a cry baby under my 'care''

"Well you are the boss~" I then turn to Lisa

"Can i know your opinion.. Miss Lisa?"

"Fufu.. my viewpoint same with Jean~"

'ahh these voice of her.. ugh' I lampooned as I nod. Then turn to Kaeya.

"What about you?"

"Me? Hahaha my opinion doesn't matter after Jean make a choice.. for now at least" Kaeya shrugged

"Hmm.. well i think we done here.." I shrugged too as I look to Jean

"Jean you have plan right?"

Jean hesitate for a while then took a glance to Lisa, Lisa nod slowly

"I do.. wanna hear it?"

"Later.. just eat these pizza first.. i remember this your favorite" I smile and point to pizzabox on her desk before turn around and open the door to leave. Before I leave i glance back to Jean..

"Jean after you done.. I want test you in combat. Find me under barbatos statue"

"Huh? Wait! No! I don-"

Baam

The door closed. There is dark look on Jean and a bit of fear. Her appetite just gone like that.
