Advertisement
Third pov:
As soon as they had reach the cathedral they saw Venti waiting for them outside the cathedral as soon as the three went near him Paimon started to question him "so this Holy lyre de Himmel is?" Paimon asked as she was curious sure the two were as well but Setsuna was feeling that something is going to go wrong.
"one if the most treasured items in Mondstadt it's the lyre that Barbados use to play." Venti said now Setsuna knew why as it seems lime Dvalin is close with the Anemo archon with this lyre he use to play maybe it can help them which is true because that was the exact words that Venti had said to them.
" will it really stop stromterror from causing more damage?" Paimon asked while looking at Venti she was a little unsure "of course I'm the best bard in the world." Venti said with a smile on his face his voice was filled with confidence "there's not a single song I do not know whether it's from the past present of even the future." Venti said the confidence in his voice was never leaving as he continue to talk.
"are you sure?" Setsuna wrote as she was starting to doubt Venti as he looked offended he spoke again "look me in the eyes do you not find me trustworthy?" Venti asked as he looked at the two in the eyes "do you want an honest answer?" Setsuna asked while she gave him a blank look on her face "d-dont answer that." Venti said as he didn't want to know.
"look into my eyes. What are you hiding?" Aether asked while looking at the bard who ignore his question and Paimon had asked hers "so how can we get the holy lyre?" Paimon asked as she place her index and tumb on the bottom of her chin in a thinking manner.
"it's said that's it's enshrined deep within the cathedral somewhere safe." Venti said as he gave them a close eyed smile "I'll go take a look around you can come if you want." Venti said as he went inside the cathedral Setsuna was now having doubt and was now getting clue no she already knew who he is given how he almost look like the statute of the archon Barbados.
With the three following Venti as he went inside the cathedral Setsuna's guess was to maybe to borrow if not to steal the lyre after all there are only to option as once as they were now near Venti he spoke again "let me hundle this." Venti said with his voice filled with confidence.
"this is not going to end well." Setsuna thought while looking at Venti who was walking towards the nun "this will be interesting." Dazai and Satoru both thought at the same time which made the other people to smack there face "they share the same braincells."they all thought well expect for Setsuna and the two handsome idiots.
"hello there sister." Venti greeted with his cheerful voice Setsuna was getting worried as she has a feeling this won't go well and something is going to happen soon ay the Anemo archon bless you young bard how can I help you? "the nun asked while looking at Venti with a soft smile on her face.
" actually I know a secret that can save Mondstadt from its current predicament. "Venti said so far this conversation is going good" oh what a blessing from the Anemo archon. "the nun said as she smiled brightly at Venti who smiled at her as well until she spoke again.

"but why is that you choose to report it to me shouldn't you report it to the knights of favonius instead?" the nun asked while looking at Venti she was getting suspicious at him maybe he is lying.
"hahaha, because you dear sister are able to help." Venti said while in the side line Aether, Setsuna and Paimo looked at him with doubt in there eyes "this is not going to end well." Setsuna wrote while looking at Venti and the nun "hey don't jinx it." Paimon said while looking at Setsuna as she stomp her small feet.
"I'd like to borrow the holy lyre with it I'll be able to help Stromterror." Venti said but he was cut of by the nun herself as she spoke "please see yourself out." the nun said which shock and confuse Venti "what?" Venti asked the nun while looking at her in a disbelief "it's a vicious dragon indeed but once the acting grand Master had made up her mind nothing can stand in the knights way and beside Cassandra will help as well." the nun said as it was true Cassandra will help but still.
"that's simply unacceptable wouldn't Stromterror end up getting killed that way?" Venti asked he was sad "the foolish beats betrayed the winds not even the Anemo archon themselves will forgive him." the nun said which made Setsuna angry how dare she decide that is she the archon?
It was funny since she is talking to the archon themselves "it's funny how Venti is the said archon yet she is deciding that." Setsuna thought as she wanted to laugh yet she was angry humans can be foolish sometimes but she and her twin her were much more foolish "wow." Venti let out, out of pure shock by the words that the nun had said.
"please I beg of you." Venti said he has a sad look on his face "I'm afraid not little bard." the nun said as she place both her hands on her hips with a strain look on her face yet inside she was feeling something inside herself when she rejected Venti.
"then I guess I'm left with no other choice." Venti said while looking at the nun "please don't tell me he is going to do what I think he is going to do." Setsuna thought while looking away as she didn't want to see how this is going to turn out "I cannot hide anymore." Venti said which confirm Setsuna's theory.
"my disciples, rejoice! Behold, the Anemo archon Barbados has descend." Venti said which made Setsuna look away trying to stop herself from laughing since the face that the nun was making was beyond priceless "shocked aren't you? Don't you just want to cry out and rejoice? How does it feel to finally meet the archon you've been serving?" Venti asked with that confidence still in his voice not even noticing the look that the nun was giving him.
It was getting more hard not to laugh since Setsuna was failing miserably not to laugh at all" if there's nothing else I'll be going back to handle the cathedral's paperwork. "the nun said not even batting an eyelash which made Venti shock and start sulking.
" wait-" Venti said as the nun left with the three going near him to talk to him with Setsuna trying to calm down this was a comedy of a life time that's for sure" eh? She didn't even bat an eyelid. "Venti said while looking at Aether and looking at Setsuna who was calming down.

" at least I learned what I wanted to know. "Venti said while looking at the three Setsuna now calm " she didn't deny that the cathedral is enshring the holy lyre. "Venti said while looking at Setsuna and Aether with a mischievous glint on his eyes.
" now since Aether and Setsuna are the hotshot of the knights of favonius maybe you two can give it a shot." Venti said with his eyes being filled with hope as the two nodded there head and went to talk with the nun.
"Barbados bless you." the nun said while looking at Setsuna and Aether as they greeted the nun "we are the honorary knight of favonius my name is Aether and this is Setsuna." Aether said while looking at the nun with a smile on his face as Setsuna bow her head to show her respect.
"I know the two of you, you two and Amber saved Mondstadt that day." the nun said with a smile on her face as she looked at the three "so what brings you here? Task from the acting grand Master?" the nun asked while looking at the two.
"yes actually. The knights of favonius would like to borrow the holy lyre." Aether said while looking at the nun "is that so?" the nun asked as she was getting suspicious of Aether and Setsuna as Venti did ask for the holy lyre earlier "not that I don't trust you it's just that a suspicious bard came looking to borrow the holy lyre as well." the nun said as while looking at the three Setsuna who was now looking away trying not to laugh.
"he full of nonesense as he even called himself Barbados he must be up to something." the nun said as she still haven't believed about the word that Venti had spoken earlier I mean who would at there situation since there archon did vanish for a long time and now a bard is claiming himself as Barbados the anemo archon "there are regulations in place for the use of the holy lyre currently its only used in ludi harpastum." the nun said again Setsuna had figure out that they won't be able to get the lyre easily.
"singed documents from the grand Master, seneschal and community representative are all required." nun said which shock Aether and Paimon since they didn't know that these was need "so may I see the document from the knights of favonius?" the nun asked waiting for Aether or even Setsuna to give her the document that they need to get the lyre.
"I'm sorry Paimon ate it on our way." Aether said as he lied about it which made Paimon complained about the lie he had said "hey." Paimon said as the lady said about something again Setsuna was in her own world again as she was now being pulled by Aether and they went to Venti to tell him what had happened.
As soon as they had reach Venti they told him what had happened "it didn't work I knew it." Venti said which made Setsuna agree with him "you knew it?" Paimon asked while looking at Venti "it's kinda given." Setsuna wrote while looking at the three "hey whose side are you on? " Paimon asked which Setsuna just ignore.
"I just wanted to know how influential Aether and Setsuna the hotshot of the knights of the favonius is." Venti said as he looked at the two "you see, the best warriors should always be presented with the best swords and yet here we are." Venti said while looking at the three he was sad yes but his hope is still there.
The rest of the conversation Setsuna was talking she was spacing out thinking on a way to steal the holy lyre she walked out of the cathedral as she went to find Cassandra as soon as she found the said girl she had asked for her to help her steal the holy lyre.
Setsuna's pov:
It seems like the bad feeling I had been feeling is when they choose to steal the holy lyre which they will do once night had fallen as soon as I was able to find Cassandra I wrote that I need her help after all Cassandra is someone I can trust most so I know she can help me "Akutagawa is the one who will fill in with the stealing although Saturo can help as well with you being able to use his ability." Cassandra said with a nodded.
We went to the house she was starting staying and I let Satoru, Chuuya, Osamu, Atsushi and Akutagawa out to help me on stealing the holy lyre and to enter the place were the holy lyre is as soon as we made a plan we they went there with Satoru teleporthing them there inside where they hide the holy lyre as soon as they had taken it and had given it to me now that's it's in my hand I made a copy a fake one and made them return the fake one back to the place they won't suspect a thing since it looks like the real deal.
It was now already night time with me and Venti outside while Aether and Paimon went inside to steal the fake holy lyre that I had made I wanted to come with them but "should stay here." Aether said as I can only nodd my head I wrote as I looked at them with a smile on my face.
it was a peaceful time with Venti, me and him had bound a lot with him talking and me writing what my answer are it was really a peaceful night that was until Aether and Paimon burst out the door out of panic "ohhh no were busted." Paimon said as they had run out "quickly follow me." Venti said as he jump and we started to run for it.
with Aether using his wind glider with me running after Venti it was a good thing that I was ae to catch up to him with Aether and Paimon jus behind us following Venti who had entered a familiar traven.
"Master Diluc this is this week's accounts." the bartender said the name to me is familiar its the same man whom I had meet when I was with Kaeya on that temple the one who was following us "hmm the disaster has greatly affected businesses." Diluc-san said with his usual serious look and tone of voice.
while looking at the bartender "well let's hope it all end well soon." the bartender said as soon as the three had burst through the door all out of breath well not me I was perfectly fine Aetehr and Paimon were catching their breaths until Venti spoke.
"hi we'd like a seat at your uhh least conspicuous table." Venti said with a smile his face Diluc-san who is confuse he still had choose to answer "ummm the second floor has fewer customers you'd be less conspicuous up there." Diluc asked while looking at us as I was now sitting and drinking an apple juice that was given to me.
"but aren't you a bard why not sit front and center? " Diluc-san asked while looking at Venti who just laugh "hahaha let's save the paid performance for next time we'll be heading up now see you in a bit." Venti said as he drag Ateher who wanted to drag me with him but I'm all ready comfortable sitting on the place and having an apple juice.
"hey keep an eye on them there is something wired about that bard I will go out and ask someone." Diluc-san said while looking at the bartender who is known as Charles "ask who exactly?" Charles asked i looked at the two out of confusion as well "the protectors of Mondstadt." Diluc-san said he really don't like them.
"seems like Diluc-san still doesn't like the knights." I wrote as showed it to him with a smile on my face "and you why did you look like you were being chase?" Diluc-san aleed while looking at me as I just smiled at him and ignore him not until the two knights went inside the traven I had to turn around and not look at them.
My own brother and a lot of people told me that I'm to honest and I'm so bad at lying so I had to look away not to do something stupid or tell them the truth or more like wrote to them that's what I mean bug something stupid "ah Master Diluc have you seen two thieves around?" the two knight asked as they catch there breath.
"what happened why are have you mobilized so many guards?" Diluc-san asked the two gruads as he looked at them and he stop looking at me "haven't you heared master Diluc two thieves were trying to steal the holy lyre!" the other guards said while while looking at Diluc-san.
"oh? How odd." Diluc said as teh two guards saw Setsuna "ahh hello honorary knight have you seen any thieves around?" the two asked while looking at me I just shook my head while looking away from them "isn't it the holy lyre is a treasure that was played by the Anemo archon themselves such a precious piece of cultural heritage." the knights said which made Diluc-san chuckle a little.
"why would one want to steal something they can't sell offf would pay better to steal from my cellars." Diluc-san started which made made me agree with him as an act that's what I can do so that they won't catch Aether and Paimon who got caught stealing the fake holy lyre I had made
"huh?" the knight asked put of confusion as they look at each other "sorry of topic believe they headed that way." Diluc-san said as he lied to them which they had believe "I wonder how they didn't notice the lyre being fake since the real one has an aura and the fake one has none." I thought while looking at Aether and Paimon who are at the Second floor since I'm able to see them with using Saturo's six eyes ability.
"understood thank you master Diluc and have a great evening honorary knight." the two knights said as they left the traven believing the words that master Diluc had told them I wrote with a smile on my face as he just looked at me "do you have something to do with stealing the holy lyre?" Diluc-san asked while looking at me as I titled my head to the side.
I asked while looking at him Cassandra had taken me here when Aether and Paimon where solving some Kaeya's problem and me and Diluc-san had become close with him I mean I won't do anything with the lyre I only stole it to help Venti and Dvalin to get out of this problem that they are in now.
I just realize I haven't done Setsuna's pov or the others characters pov so here I am doing it and yay I get to do a double update today tomorrow I will be doing Setsuna's information since I realize I haven't done that and update some of my stories as it had been along time since I had update them

Three Hundred Years After The End Of The World
Three hundred years after the end of the world as humanity knew it, the gears of an old plan slowly begin to move again, as a group of self-imposed reincarnators, along with their equally unlikely companions, gather once again to set things right... but does the world they plan to restore need, or even want, their help? Follow the misadventures of an eclectic bunch of genius misfits as they attempt to assemble and fix the world they accidentally devastated in the past. ~~~ Author's note: This is actually the first volume of a novel I wrote nearly a decade ago for the VNDB discussion boards, taking inspiration from the random off-topic ramblings that characterized the golden age of the community. After sevear years and countless rewrites, it is pretty much unrecognizable, but while it is not fit for professional publishing (due to the fact that several fragments and older versions are still out there on various forums and blogs), I decided it is a waste to just let it sit idly on my hard drive forever. As such, I decided to share it somewhere where people could maybe appreciate it, so here it is.

Phantom Storm
"Have you heard, the entire Bonanno crew was brutally murdered!" Exclaimed a youth in his early teens. "What? you're lying, again!" Another similarly aged child responded with crisp denial in his tone. After all, the crew was infamous for their ruthlessness. An eery silence passed between them. Soon enough, the teens' curiosity trumped his ego, and he found himself inquiring in a meek voice. "So...Who did it?" "I heard my father talking about it while he was drunk. Guess what he said?..." The child responded, he was a natural-born storyteller. Listening intently, the other teen urged him on. "It was done by a single person. When the police arrived, the bodies were charred black, likely the work of an electro mage. Most had an arrow or two lodged in their body, and a few were even chopped into neat little slices by a sharp blade." He paused, inhaling sharply. "All the victims had shocked expressions on their faces. As if the enemy was invisible or something. That's why they call that person the Phantom Storm!" concluded the adolescent with an excited glint in his eyes. 2 CHAPTERS PER WEEK (Canada time) [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] -------------------------------------------- Follow Itsuki as he is reincarnated in an unfamiliar world, left to discover where he belongs in such a place.
