"Hello, you must be Mr. Bai, our friend from Liyue who helped us deal with Stormterror."

As soon as they entered the banquet hall, a tall, icy figure walked towards Shiroki and waved to him.

Shiraki extended his hand and shook hands with him.

"Yes, it's me. This gentleman must be Mr. Kaeya, the cavalry captain of the Knights of Favonius. It's a pleasure to meet you."

As they shook hands, Shiraki responded with a smile.

Seeing how friendly Shiraki was, Kaeya breathed a sigh of relief.

Although Jean did not reveal Shiraki and Wendy's identities, she did not hide them from some of her close confidants.

The steady and reliable Kaiya is naturally one of Jean's confidants.

He was also shocked when he learned of this.

Since Jean had repeatedly emphasized that Shiraki posed no threat to Mondstadt, Kaeya also planned to make contact with Shiraki.

Through this brief encounter, Kaiya discovered that Shiraki's personality seemed to be just as Qin had described—very easygoing.

As for the wind god beside him, Kaeya has no intention of having much contact with him right now.

Prior to this, he had had several encounters with Wendy and had learned some things about her from Diluc.

He was truly speechless when it came to his own Wind God.

After shaking hands with Kaiya, Shiraki found a seat in the banquet hall and sat down.

Looking around, Bai Mu noticed some familiar faces in the banquet hall.

For example, there's Diluc standing there with a blank expression, Amber chatting with Barbara, and Lisa standing next to Jean, secretly observing herself.

To Shiraki's surprise, he found a Geo-element NPC in a corner.

Even abd is here!

Shiraki was slightly surprised; he hadn't expected Abedo to attend such an event.

Seeing the gaze that Shiraki cast his way, Abedo met his eyes, then nodded as a greeting.

"Big brother, could you give me one of those grilled fish over there?"

Just then, a soft, sweet voice came from under the table where Bai Mu was.

Shiraki looked down and saw a small red house pet Klee standing there, looking at him timidly.

"of course."

Seeing how cute Klee was, Shiraki immediately nodded. He picked out the largest grilled fish from the plate and handed it to Klee.

As he handed the grilled fish to Klee, Shiraki patted Klee's head.

"Thank you, big brother, you are such a good person."

After receiving the grilled fish, Klee happily thanked Shiraki. At the same time, she didn't forget to give Shiraki a "good guy" card.

"Hmm, the little one is so good."

Shiraki smiled at Klee, and at the same time, he patted Klee's little head.

After being patted on the head by Shiraki, Klee skipped away with the grilled fish in her hand.

"Sigh, if only Narcida were as polite as Claire."

As Shiraki watched Klee skip away, he couldn't help but think of Narcida, who had just seen him that day and immediately called herself a little lizard.

"I am the Princess of Judgment, summoned here by destiny. Warriors, thank you for your contributions to Mondstadt, which allowed the Dragon Plague to end."

While waiting at the entrance of the banquet hall, a very chuunibyou (a Japanese term for someone with delusions of grandeur) voice suddenly rang out.

Everyone turned to look in the direction from which the sound came.

At the entrance, a girl dressed in a purple dress, with a slightly chuunibyou (delusional) air about her, slowly walked in.

A black raven stood out conspicuously on the girl's shoulder.

For some reason, the crow perched on the girl's shoulder was covering its eyes with one wing, as if it felt very embarrassed to be perched on the girl's shoulder.

In this situation, when Jean saw Fischl, whose chuunibyou had relapsed, she felt that she was probably going to embarrass herself abroad this time.

Sure enough, when Qin turned her head again, she found that Bai Mu was just like everyone else, trying hard to suppress a smile as he looked at the girl standing at the door.

Jean couldn't help but cover her face, worried about Mondstadt's reputation abroad.

Seeing that no one responded to him, Fischl, who was standing at the door, also felt a little embarrassed.

Although she was a bit of a chuunibyou (a person with delusions of grandeur), she wasn't thick-skinned enough to control her chuunibyou soul.

With so many eyes watching her in the banquet hall, Fischl felt trapped, unable to move forward or backward.

"Your Highness, welcome. Please allow me to guide you to your seat."

At this extremely awkward moment, Shiraki stood up from the empty dining table in front of him and walked towards Fischl.

He said some words to cooperate with Fischl, and after walking up to Fischl, he gestured to guide Fischl toward one of the dining tables.

Fischl gave Bai Mu a grateful look and followed Bai Mu's directions to one of the tables in the banquet hall.

As Shiraki walked toward the dining table, he vaguely heard sighs of relief coming from the banquet hall.

After leading Fischl to her seat, Shiraki sat down at the table next to her.

The food on the table was still very plentiful and had hardly been touched.

He ate almost everything on the table that Shiraki had prepared.

Because Lisa, who was chatting with Qin not far away, kept glancing at Bai Mu, Bai Mu was too embarrassed to go to another table to continue eating.

Now that there's such a great opportunity to switch tables, Shiraki certainly won't miss it.

Not far from Shiraki, Fischl mouthed a warning to Shiraki, and Shiraki understood what she meant.

"Thank you."

"Little Keli, do you want more grilled fish? Brother Bai will get it for you."

"Oh? Thank you, Brother Bai."

Shiraki walked to the table where Klee was sitting, took a grilled fish, and handed it to her. He then began to eat at the same table.

Not long after, Shiraki left the table and went to the table where Barbara was.

"Huh? Is the banquet over already?"

Looking at the empty dining table, Klee scratched her head and said in confusion.

"Bye-ba-la, girls should eat more vegetables, it's good for their skin."

Shiraki placed a plate of vegetable salad on the table in front of Barbara, patted her head, and spoke gently.

"Thank you, Mr. Feng... Mr. Bai."

Barbara, blushing, held up the plate of vegetable salad that Bai Mu had given her.

She felt that there was something awkward about the way Bai Mu said her name, but she just couldn't figure out what was wrong with it.

"Hmm, you can eat if you're okay."

While Barbara was eating her vegetable salad with her head down, Shiraki used a similar approach to get Amber, who had been chatting with Barbara earlier, to also start eating salad.

"We can't waste the leftover food."

Looking at the table full of delicious food, Bai Mu couldn't help but think about how early it was.

After a while, after finishing the food that had been “wasted” on the table in front of him, Shiraki went to Abedo’s table.

"Mr. Abedo, why aren't you eating your vegetables?"

Shiraki sat down in the chair next to Abedo and asked.

While he was cooking, he didn't forget to put food in his mouth.

"Given our current state, we don't need to consume these things, do we?"

Abedo asked in bewilderment.

As an alchemical creation, his thoughts weren't as convoluted as those of the Ice God.

If he doesn't understand something, he will investigate it directly.

Shiraki had no intention of hiding his avatar, so Abedo easily learned that Shiraki's body was just an avatar.

That's why he asked that question.

Aberdo is an alchemical creation, so he certainly doesn't need to eat.

From his perspective as an alchemical creation, he didn't know how to answer the question posed by the white wood avatar.

This is like a normal person asking another normal person, "Why are you eating?"

Isn't this a normal thing?

Abedo was very puzzled as he watched Shiraki eat.

Do you still need to eat to replenish your energy?

"Eating isn't just about replenishing energy."

Shiraki chewed on the food in his mouth, speaking incoherently.

Hearing this, Abedo was still puzzled, but he didn't say anything. He just sat there quietly, watching Shiraki keep putting the food on the table into his mouth.

Shiraki felt extremely awkward being stared at by Abedo. He stopped what he was doing, took a piece of grilled meat that he hadn't eaten yet, and handed it to Abedo.

"Why don't you try some? It's delicious."

Taking the grilled meat from Shiraki, Abedo ate it bite by bite under Shiraki's watchful eye.

"not bad."

After finishing the piece of grilled meat, Abedo went into a daze again, sitting there watching Shiraki eat.

Seeing this, Bai Mu didn't let him eat anymore.

After finishing their meal, Shiraki said goodbye to Abedo and headed to Wendy's table.

"Hey, drinking, Wendy, bro."

Sitting next to Wendy, Shiraki greeted her warmly while simultaneously feeding herself some food from the table.

"Come on, Brother Bai, drink up!"

Wendy, holding up the blanket, spoke drunkenly to Shiraki.

Shiraki poured himself a glass of the same drink Wendy was drinking and took a sip.

Then, he put down his wine glass, didn't eat much of the food on the table, and silently walked to Keli's table.

Klee, who was eating grilled fish with her head down, looked up again and found that the food on her table had disappeared once again.

……

After the banquet, Qin looked at the almost spotless dining table and nodded in satisfaction.

The banquet was a great success. Not only was there no waste of drinks and food, but even the drinks and food prepared for emergencies were eaten up.

Even at the end, Klee complained to her that there wasn't enough food.
