The day had begun and you surprisingly woke up without Noelle needing to or maybe she did and you just didn't hear her but anyways you started getting ready for another day but this time you had a pretty somewhat important assignment wich was to report back to the small man that's in charge in Liyue and if he heard you say that you would be dead by now but you aren't

Luckily the Fatui had provided some waypoint maps to everyone and when you got to Liyue you finally saw your first way point it was very impressive the instructions were simple just touch the way point and it'll mark a new location on the map you looked at your map and the little mark was there and before you left you left a note for Noelle and unlocked Mondstadt's way point before you left because you had forgotten that one then you once again looked at the map and saw the new one had appeared then you looked at the Liyue one you tapped it and in the blink of an eye you were in Liyue again

You were made your way to Northland Bank and headed over to the receptionist "Welcome to the Northland Bank. I'm Ekaterina how may I assist you?" "Good morning Ekaterina I'm here to report back to The Balladeer about a job that was assigned to me" you gave her a letter wich said what you had to do and when you had to report back signed by The Balladeer himself "Ok then follow me ill lead you to where he is now" She led you to a small hallway and guided you to a specific door and told you to knock on that one and you did

"Come in" said the voice inside and you opened the door "Good morning Mr. Balladeer sir, I came to give you the report of the people you had asked me to collect the debt of" and layed the papers in front of him "Apparently by what im reading here is that you got attacked by some treasure hoarders who didn't want to pay their debt and technically almost didn't escape" "Well in my defense I didn't have a weapon" he looked straight at you "you're pathetic didn't they teach you hand to hand combat in the trials" "Hehe.." you felt a bit embarrassed for a moment before he spoke again "This little bunch of treasure hoarders have been getting on my nerves for the past month already so I'll have take care of them myself and teach them not to mess with the Fatui. Show me where you last saw them thats an order" you quickly took out your map and pointed to an area near Dawn Winery he then teleported there and you followed

He had a good head start and you tried keeping up with him and soon enough you did you saw that he was standing still and looking at something you thought it was the treasure hoarders but when you got closer to him you saw a ruin grader "What's a ruin grader doing all the way out here near Dawn Winery?" You asked "I have no idea but let's not get too close to it we wouldn't want to activate it" he looked back where you were and didn't see you at all then looked back at the ruin grader and saw you approaching it and of course you had activated it he quickly ran to you and placed you somewhere safe quickly "Stay here and don't cause any more trouble while I deal with this" he ran back to it and soon in the blink of an eye the ruin grader was defeated and all you could ever do and did was stay there staring in awe as he approached you again ""H-H-How did y-you...what just happened?" He only took your wrist and kept moving ignoring everything you were saying "Just shut it and don't ask too many questions" and you did as he said

After a while you got over what had happened and finally found the treasure hoarder camp and approached it without any signs of hesitation but you were still sorta scared since you still didn't have a weapon "Well look whose back little Ms Fatui lady brought her boyfriend with her" both you and Scaramouche got annoyed at his comment "I am nobody's boyfriend I came here to collect your goddamn debt either we could do this the easy way and nobody gets hurt or we do it the hard way you choose" they started grouping up again and you knew they wanted to do the hard way "Well too bad" Scaramouche said and took out a catalyst out of thin air "Hide behind that bush over there I promise this will end quickly" you quickly ran behind the bush he indicated and tried to get peek of what was going on but you couldn't see much

It didn't take long before you heard something "You can come out now" Scaramouche said and you got up to see all of the treasure hoarders greatly injured and some blood blood on Scaramouche's clothing and face "When you said you'd take care of them you really meant it huh" you stood next to him "I never joke around I always mean what I say" you looked at the treasure hoarders and felt sorta bad for them "Well that taught them a good lesson" you said "I hope they pay up in thenext few days if not I will personally end them" then he proceeded take out his map "Wanna come back to Liyue with me or do you have some other stuff to do?" "Oh uhm s-sure I would love to it would be such an honor!" And you teleported back with him and he took you out to Wanmin Restaurant and had a small dinner there and learned more about each other you could say you felt quite fortunate
