180 Side Story 16: Dendro Has Great Weed

Beidou was having tons of fun exploring the roughest seas with her new ship. And while she was at the helm, one of her crew mates received a message from land. "Captain! We received a comm from Ein-san. Please read it."

Beidou opened up the chat on her display and she saw that the last original archons are going to have a little get together for old time's sake.

"Woah, he really doesn't play when he does something. Yosh, let us return to Liyue at once! We've mapped a good portion of the unknown sea with this baby already." She patted the vessel like it was her kid and they started going back to Liyue.

Tianquan was relaxing at the jade chamber as she had more time to because of the scanners. Having a nice bubble bath, courtesy of Walmart's bath bombs with a bottle of champagne on hand.

"Ahhh, I'll get lazy because of these. Damn you Ein, you're giving me too much time." She sighed in satisfaction and was listening to music as he also gave her a player that she could use. But a knock disturbed her relaxation time and she was fuming.

"What!? This better be good. I'm trying things that my lover gave me." She hissed and the attendant got scared, but befitting her status as the Tianquan's servant. She managed to reign her fear and delivered the message.

"Lady Tianquan, Ein-sama wants to inform you that a party with multiple archons will be held today. It includes the archons of eternity, contract, and freedom." The attendant said and Ningguang thought it was an insane line up.

"I understand, thank you." Ningguang then went quiet and thought of how this will go down. But at least she had a bubble bath while she agonized.

Ein was roaming Mondstadt so he could invite Barbatos with them personally. And he was at the top of the church of Favonius, eyeing the city like a hawk as he thought it would be more fun locating the femboy the old way.

"You, what are you doing here?" He heard a female voice and he slowly turned around with his eyes as slits. She looked at his eyes with wonder and didn't flinch.

"Hmm, I'm trying to find somebody. Perhaps you'd know where he is?" Ein asked as he looked at the nun in front of him. She had pale skin and her complexion looked like it was a dead person's. (pic)

"You are not from here. What's your purpose in finding that person?" She was vigilant because Ein was sussy, squatting on the highest spike on Mondstadt and wasn't even shaking for a single bit. He looked like an assassin that was trying to find a target.

"Hmmm, why so suspicious of me sister? I'm a completely harmless member of society. I even run a shop here at Mondstadt, ever hear of Walmart?" He completely turned around as he stood up. His balance was impeccable and the woman thought he must be a master assassin.

"I see, then who are you looking for?" She tried getting more information and silently prepared her hidden blades.

"I'm looking for my good friend Barbatos. Looks like a femboy, has a lyre, and has a green motif." Ein described him and the woman was almost shocked that she knows one person like that and he was actually the anemo archon.

"No need for violence woman, I can see you reach for those blades on you. I'm Einheri, call me Ein." He shrugged and the woman thought that if she engages, she would surely lose. Just based on his intimidating look.

"I guess. My name is Rosaria, a sister here in the church of Favonius. Who really are you Ein?" She was still sussy of him and he landed on the ground elegantly.

"Me? I'm just a normal shop owner. And you, you're a person who keeps this city clean don't you?" He said with a grin and Rosaria thought he was interesting.

"Hmmm, I do. As a sister of the church, it is one of my duties. But why are you looking for the archon of Mondstadt? What's his name, Bartobas? Barsibato? Whatever." She couldn't remember the archon's name because she could care less.

"An ice vision user huh? You must have been through some things. Well, I just found my little target. You shouldn't be too suspicious of everyone Rosaria, what if I was a bad guy that would've disposed of you if you found me snooping around?" Ein said with a chuckle and Rosaria flinched from his words.

But back up has arrived as Rosaria informed the knights with his description immediately and it was Eula as he was just about to leave. "You... What are you up to now!?" Eula pointed at him like he was a repeat offender of crimes and he shrugged.

"I'm just trying to find a friend you know? Why are you so mad Eula?" He smirked at her and Rosaria thought that he really might be a danger to Mondstadt if the reconnaissance division's company was fuming when she saw him.

"I've finally found you, my vengeance shall be fulfilled today!" She lunged at him for a strike, as she was banned using her great sword against him by Jean. Thinking that he will milk them dry if he takes their scuffle to court as he was a civvy.

"You don't learn, do you?" He parried her flurry of attacks and they looked like they were in an elaborate dance. Rosaria decided to sit down and watch their little scuffle. "Welp, I should just sit back and relax then."

Eula was like a woman scorned, intent on beating him up for his transgressions. "Aww, aren't you a little cutie. Your fighting style is like a dance, too bad. That doesn't really work in real life you know? You're just stronger than your enemies, that's why it works." He critiqued her and she fumed.

"Shut your trap! Vengeance will be mine!" She kept on attacking, but he was getting bored. So he grabbed her arms and put it in the air while he put his arm on her waist and he initiated a dance.

"Hmm, why are you so angry anyway Eula?" He went up close and Eula was stunned. "Y-you! You have the gall to ask!? You've dishonored me, slapped my behind! I can't get married anymore." She struggled against his hold, trying to kick his family jewels. But he dodged of course.

"Hey, that's not a good place to attack." He sighed and poked her on nape, making her slack. Her muscles relaxing as she sat down.

"Alright, alright. I'm sorry, forgive me okay?" He didn't know that she was a noble and they were really obsessed with honor and the like.

"Woah, I need to learn that. That could help me sleep at night, she looks so relaxed." Rosaria made a comment as she looked at their exchange and thought it was just a little quarrel.

"Damn you! What did you do to me?" Eula then gasped and thought he'll have his way with her. "Ugh, kill me. I will not be disgraced any further." He raised a brow at her words and thought the line was sus. She was a knight, check. She was voluptuous and beautiful, check. He beat her and she couldn't fight back anymore, check. It was a cliche female knight gets raped scenario.

He sighed heavily and sat down with her. He then gave a little kiss at the top of her hand and Eula was confused. "Well, how about I just take responsibility then?" He smiled at her and Eula froze.

"Ohooo? They're weak against that aren't they?" Rosaria commented. Enjoying the cliche soap opera.

"W-what are you talking about!?" Eula didn't understand fully as she was shocked and Ein sighed. "You heard me, so? What do you say? I'll take good care of you, ya know?" He grinned and Rosaria decided to help him out a bit.

"She's from a noble clan Ein. That's why she speaks like a dork." Rosaria commented and Ein chuckled.

"Well, if your clan are nobles. Then my family are the gods of gods. Pretty good exchange no?" He took out his horns and his eyes turned to slits once more. Eula and Rosaria perked up to that valuable information and Eula was shocked to her core.

"Nobles are peasants in our eyes, royals bow and grovel at our presence, gods are nothing but servants before us. Be thankful that you are offered to be my lady. Ahem, did I do that right? You think she understood now?" Ein looked at Rosaria and she gave a thumbs up.

"She did. I think." Rosaria pointed at Eula who was blushing and Ein shook his head. "W-wha? Prove it then... That you are a god." Eula said with suspicion and he nodded.

"Well, we're actually having a little party with the archons I know. So you're in luck." He pinched her cheek and Eula got her strength back, she was then deep in thought and suddenly ran away. "I'll think about it... But remember! My vengeance is still unfulfilled!" She disappeared and Ein sighed.

"She's a handful isn't she?" Rosaria commented as she took out a cigarette. "You got a light or something?" She asked and he snapped his fingers. Lighting up her cigarette as she nodded in thanks.

"Hah, I guess I'll just call Barbatos here." He sat down with Rosaria and offered her a can of beer. She smelled the nice scent and took it, gulping down the beverage.

Ein then gave a message to Barbatos, so he would come to their location while he relaxed a bit. Thinking about what to do with Eula coming to get him all the time.

"So, why did you drink it all up immediately? Had a rough day being a sister or something?" He asked to break the ice and Rosaria nodded.

"Jean's sister. Deaconess Barbara is always on my ass, telling me to go to the masses and events. She's a pain to be honest." She then gestured for another with her hand.

"Sheesh, rough day." He decided to give her some wine and took out some skewers as well. They looked like salary men that had a rough day at work and enjoyed a nice time at a bar.

"Hmmm, so you really a god or something? Well, you did took those things out of nowhere." Rosaria took a skewer and she fell prey to the deliciousness as she felt like she was in heaven.

Ein pinched her cheek and she regained consciousness. "Well, I would say I'm a human. But that isn't the case for hundreds of years now. So yeah."

Rosaria looked at the dangerous skewers and decided to try again as surely, he won't poison them if he wanted to kill her. "W-what's in this thing? Are they enchanted?" She asked in wonder while she quickly gobbled them up. Forgetting about her duties in the church.

"I'm just good, anyways. Why are you even here in the church? Shouldn't you just be a knight? It would be inconvenient to do the dirty work if you're a nun no?" He asked and Rosaria sighed.

"It's a long story... Well, I could indulge you if you gave me a few bottles of wine and more of these." She asked greedily as she has never tasted something that delicious before, even Diona's drinks aren't that good and she's the best bar tender in Teyvat.

"You're quite the little greedy one aren't you? Sure, I have tons of them anyway." He shrugged and gave her a few bottles and she started chugging one like it was a soft drink.

"My village was attacked by bandits when I still wasn't even aware of the world. They then raised me to be another bandit too. It was rough. Always underfed, doing back breaking labor, sleeping in the cold, fending for yourself or they'll take advantage of you." She started telling her story and he nodded.

"And when I couldn't take it anymore, I ran away. The leader who was old and decided to take me in chased me and told me that deserters are traitors and I could only gain freedom by combat. He threw an old dagger at me and we fought. I won, but it was clear that he went easy on me. I returned to the camp, and they were apprehensive at first, but a kid doesn't eat much and an old fart would kick the bucket anyway." She sighed and reminisced that time, thinking that the leader let himself get killed.

"Grand master Varka then wiped out the group and I was spared because I was too young. He thought I'll change so he put me in the church." She drank another bottle and he chuckled.

"And you were probably a problem child huh? Constantly skipping events and didn't even attend masses. Well, you're in a better place now. But that's how you got your vision huh? You probably don't have friends too." He laughed and she pouted at him. Starting to get tipsy at his wine as they are not normal and can work against gods.

"Hmph. I don't need some, they'll probably nag me like Barbara to stop drinking and smoking." She huffed and he got an idea.

"Hmm, how about you meet with someone pretty similar to you? You guys would get along swimmingly, and you probably know her. Yelan, ring any bells?" He suggested and Rosaria nodded, as the daredevil was really famous, or rather infamous.

"Hmmm, she is interesting. But I got a question, what is this thing made of? I can feel myself getting drunker by the second." Rosaria hiccuped and was feeling the alcohol seep into her.

"It's rated for gods. My family doesn't get drunk see? So everybody can get drunk on it. Well, except me." He sighed and still had to decrease his defense before he could even feel a little bit tipsy.

"I see. Tough being a god huh?" She started chugging another one and ate some skewers, but she has never gotten drunk in her life and started to get sleepy.

He patted her head and put it on his lap. "Heh, you're getting pretty drunk you know? You even listening to me earlier?" He sighed and she was against it at first. But she suddenly felt comfortable and nice.

"I haven't felt this before. It feels nice, it's like I'm fluttery and relaxed like never before." She closed her eyes and he patted her head.

"Well, you have me to thank for then." He smirked and she pinched his thigh as she yawned. "I'm getting sleepy, wake me up later. That's the price for putting my head on your lap." She said cheekily.

"Yes, yes." He then waited for Barbatos to show up and Rosaria started to breathe softly. "Damn, won't Aponia get jealous that I have a nun on my lap? This is her shtick after all." He chuckled and Barbatos appeared as he fell from the air, flying with the wind.

"Hi! Why'd you call me here Ein-sama?" Barbatos greeted and he saw the bottles of wine on the floor along with the slack faced Rosaria that was pleasantly drunk.

"No fair! I want some alcohol too!" He whined and Ein flicked him with some pressurized air on his forehead.

"Shut up, you'll wake her up. Besides, I called you here because we're having a party with Morax, Ei, and Makoto." He informed him and the little archon got excited.

"Wait... Really? And you even returned Makoto here to the land of the living? Wow... Hehehe~ We'll have so much fun then." He smiled and thought of playing the music for the party.

"Umu, so don't be late okay?" Ein told him and Barbatos went away to prepare. "Now, what shall I do? I've got a pretty lady on my lap, I'm in quite the predicament." He was thinking of what to do. And while he weighed his choices, Jean and Lisa appeared with Eula.

"Ara~ look at him Jean. He's being all chummy with sister Rosaria, this is quite surprising." Lisa commented and Eula narrowed her eyes at him.

"Hah, Ein-san. Did you really propose to Eula?" Jean asked and was exasperated as things would hit the fan very quickly if what Eula told her was right, and he was a god. The Lawrence clan would eat the shit right up and try to take over Mondstadt over the premise that one of their clan members is with a god who are above the archons.

"Yes, that's right. You worried that their clan would try to pull stupid crap? Heh, let them try I think Klee would love to blow some stuff up." He shrugged and Eula flinched. As she wanted to make the Lawrence clan great again.

"You know that things aren't that simple Ein..." Jean deadpanned at him and was getting irritated that Rosaria was sleeping on his lap while he was suggesting to kill all of them if they try something stupid.

"Well, let's just ask Eula then. Hey, Eula, want me to kill every single one of them?" He asked with a smile and Eula thought about exterminating extremists. But she ultimately shook her head.

"No, I... I want my clan to prosper again, and how would it if the majority of them disappear." She raised and he nodded.

"That's a good point. So it's okay if they don't die right?" He smirked and would just turn them into the merriest fuckers around.

"Jean, I don't like where this is going." Lisa looked at his smirk and she was sure that he was going to do something ridiculous.

"Uhhh, yes?" Eula sealed the fate of the Lawrence clan and Ein snapped his fingers. "There, they should be great again. They'll still be strict, noble like, and proud. But they will never hassle or bother the people of Mondstadt ever again." He rewired them to be a proud clan, but more like the Kaslanas.

Jean squinted her eyes at him and didn't notice anything wrong. "What did you just do? Am I going to need to clean up again?" She sighed heavily and he shook his head.

"No, silly. I just turned the remaining members of the Lawrence clan into good, functioning people of society." He shrugged and continued patting Rosaria's head as she started drooling.

"Fufufu~ You hear that Jean? It seems Ein-san has just lifted a heavy burden from your shoulders no?" Lisa commented as the Lawrence clan regularly made trouble for the people of Mondstadt and the knights would have to deal with their bullshit.

"Ahhh, you're a workaholic just like Ganyu right? I saw it in your office, you had tons of paperwork to go through. Here, take this." Ein took out some of the scanners and let her know how it operated.

Jean processed the information with a raised brow and slowly picked them up. "Are you sure you want to give me this? This is revolutionary..." Jean was suspicious and he pouted at her.

"Why is everyone so suspicious of me? I did a pretty nice thing, right Lisa? And they're all bullying me." He poked Rosaria's cheek and she mumbled. "Thatsh right."

Jean felt bad as Lisa nodded. Eula then thought it was the perfect time to strike and ran up to him just to give him a little slug on the face.

"Oops, I can't have you doing that. You're quite rude Eula, can't you see that someone is sleeping over here?" He made Eula trip and used telekinesis to make her float right in front of him.

"Tch, just. Let. Me. Hit. You!" She struggled in the air and was very obsessed on hitting him. "Hah, Jean. This is domestic violence, and we aren't even married yet." He pointed at the fuming Eula and Jean sighed at his antics.

"Whatever, just don't cause trouble. And Eula, stop that. You'll just lose anyway." Jean reminded her and went back to the HQ. Lisa gave him a wink and he reciprocated back.

"So? I told you I'm sorry right? Come on, calm down for a moment. In fact, shouldn't I be the one angry at you? You were chasing me around with a great sword while I was carrying Klee." He raised a point and Eula gained her wits. She then stopped struggling and let her sit beside him.

"Hmph, you might be a god. But I'll never forgive you. My burning vengeance shall reach you for sure." She huffed and puffed her cheeks.

"Damn, that was cute as hell. Anyways, I'll definitely take responsibility. But let's take it slow, how about you ask me a question and I'll ask too. Get to know each other a bit more?" He suggested and Eula thought that was acceptable.

"Who are you and what is your real aim?" She asked suspiciously and he sighed. "I might be a god, but I'm just a normal guy that's a tourist here. Why are you so suspicious of me anyway?"

That got her thinking and it was just prejudice. Coupled along with power that is otherworldly, it was a natural response to something that the human mind could not comprehend.

"I do not know, you are too mysterious. As the captain of the reconnaissance company, it is my duty and responsibility to be on the lookout for enemies that might bring disaster to Mondstadt, and you perfectly match that description." She huffed and he gave a wry smile.

"Hmm, you're right. But I don't remotely look like an enemy now don't I? I've got all the evidence I need. Diona and Klee could vouch for me." He gave a smug smile and Eula couldn't retort to that. As even though Klee likes everyone, Diona was as prickly as a cactus and she really likes him.

"Doesn't change the fact that you hit my behind. You will pay for that dearly." She blushed and he was curious why she was so fixated on vengeance and retribution.

"Now, it's my time to ask. Why are you so fixated on revenge anyway Eula?" He genuinely asked and it made her look at the sky as she reminisced her clan that has failed Mondstadt.

"My... My clan, the Lawrence clan. Has a history against the people of Mondstadt, at first, we were nobles that upheld honor and the responsibility of noblesse oblige for the people. But as you know, people change when they are in power." She bit her lip and thought of the disgrace and depravity of her clan.

"It all changed when they viewed themselves as rulers. Overlords, kings. The sacred gladiator battles turned into a bloodsport, the clan would engage in debauchery, the populace suffered under their tyrannical rule." She continued her story and Ein gave her a milkshake.

"Thank you. You will pay for this later, anyways. As all tyrants do, they eventually fall. And the Lawrence clan is now a noble family that was disgraced and lives outside of Mondstadt. But the people of course remember. People do not accept any of my money and refuse to even sell me anything back then. Everybody viewed the members of the Lawrence clan as evil and any semblance of being fair and kind is met with scrutiny, as well as suspicion." It all then clicked inside his mind and Eula looked at him, thankful that he understood quickly.

"You're just a tsundere aren't you? It's because your clan wants to have revenge against Mondstadt and would rule it again. So you always say that because people would be suspicious of your motives if you say, thank you or something." He concluded and Eula was gobsmacked.

She hit him softly and huffed. "I am not a tsundere! You'll pay for your transgressions!" He then laughed and patted her head.

"You know, that's pretty unexpected. But that's a pretty cute reason isn't it?" He chuckled and Eula was foreign to the affectionate gesture.

"Hmm, what is this? Why does it feel... Disgusting!" He put his hand away and he chuckled.

"D-do it again... I didn't tell you to stop. But you will taste retribution for this later." She blushed and he continued as she sipped on her milkshake.

"How about another question? You must want to know more about me right?" He asked and Eula thought of questions.

"Then... If you really are a god, then why would you even take responsibility for your transgressions against me?" She was confused on why he would do that as mortal lives are just fleeting moments for gods.

"Hmm, that's a good question. I think it's because it'd be fun, would you believe me if I told you I'm human? Immortality isn't all fun and games you know? You have to pick really good companions to be with or you'll be stuck with them forever. Or you'll inevitably drift apart due to differences and regret it for eternity." He answered and Eula nodded. She cannot imagine what it would be like to be immortal and view time as just fleeting moments.

"You're beautiful, strong, noble, kind. You basically do your schtick in order to blend in right?" Ein answered as he figured her out. Eula blushed heavily and gave a small nod of acknowledgement.

"Yes... The people of Mondstadt cannot imagine a Lawrence that is kind nor respectful. And they expect cruelty and coldness out of me as well, even though I am a knight of Favonius." She explained with a somber tone and he patted her head.

"I don't really know your clan. How about you practice with me? Say thank you for the drink." He smiled gently and Eula prepared herself.

"T...Tha-Thank you for this drink Ein... I'll make you pay later." He sighed as she was so close, but old habits die hard.

"Okay, we're going to have to work on that." Ein chuckled and Eula puffed her cheeks cutely. "Ahh, that gap moe. You're adorable you know?" He teased her and Eula hit her again with a pout on her face.

"You... How many women have fallen prey to your wiles?" She squinted her eyes at him and he chuckled. "Hmm, how about you guess? I don't hide it, but I want you to guess."

"Just say it, you philanderer! I guess you're just trying to make me join your harem!" She accused him, and that was true. But he doesn't add them willy nilly.

"I guess that's kind of true. But I don't put women in my harem just because they're pretty you know? They're all immortal because they've decided to spend their life with me for all eternity. You could guess how I treat them no?" He smirked and Eula thought that was a decision she couldn't even fathom the weight of.

"Why so quiet little Spindrift Knight? I'm not forcing you into it, but how about you interact with them? I think you know some of them because a few are here in Teyvat." He offered a compromise and she nodded after thinking about it.

"Okay... But that doesn't mean I'm in it for good!" She huffed again and he patted her head. "Okay, sheesh. You're such a little tsundere eh? How about I seal the pact?" He kissed her forehead and she went an atomic red.

"There, I would've done more. But we are still pretty new. That shows my sincerity yes? I've touched a noble maiden's behind after all." He chuckled and Eula looked away from him with a huff. But her eyes softened and she blushed a bit with the formation of their new, and certainly weird relationship.

"Ugh, I'm tryna shleep over here munya." Rosaria waved her hands a bit and sleep talked. Completely out like a light as she drooled on his pants.

"Ahhh, I'll have to tell her about this later." Ein took a photo of her being completely relaxed and would show it to her later when he gets the chance.

__

The party was now set and it was in the middle of the forest and Ein looked at the banquet they'll be having. "Hmm, Aether is still trying to chase down Lumine. I guess I shouldn't bother with their games." He located the older brother of the twins and he was still running around with his locator.

He then gathered up the participants of the party. From Mondstadt, Barbatos, Klee, Diona, Mona, Jean, Lisa, Rosaria, Eula, and Amber. As Eula insisted she wanted to meet his other lovers immediately. And she dragged Amber with her as she was a real homie since Eula's day 1 in Mondstadt. While Lisa and Jean wanted to keep tabs on Klee.

From Inazuma, Ei, Makoto, Yae, Ayaka, and Kokomi were the representatives. And from Liyue, there were Ganyu, Shenhe, Cloud Retainer, Morax, Xiao, Ningguang, Beidou, Keqing, Yelan, and Qiqi.

He started the music and introduced the archons to the people. "Hey everybody, these guys are the archons you know? We wanted to have a little get together, they haven't met each other for some time see?"

Ein then started with the green themed bard as he had the most followers present. "This here's Barbatos, you might know him as Venti. The femboy, no good drunk." Ein introduced and Barbatos didn't even flinched and waved at his followers.

"Bartobas!? I knew it, he felt quite special. And I was right." Rosaria exclaimed and thought that her senses and gut feeling were pretty awesome.

"Oh my Celestia..." Jean almost fainted when she saw that Venti was Barbatos and she started sweating when she thought of telling it to her sister, deaconess Barbara who was a devout follower.

Lisa smiled wryly and patted Jean on the back. "It's okay Jean, Mondstadt has been doing fine right?"

"Ohh, so Venti the bard is Barbatos. Does that mean Jean can't do anything if he gives me permission to go bomb fishing anytime I want?" Klee got excited and would ask him later.

Diona glared daggers at him and was fuming. "So the anemo archon is that drunk that always begs for drinks in my shop nya!? Unforgivable!" Diona's tail propped up and her fur was spiking all over the place.

Ein then introduced Morax and Keqing was the one that had the most reaction. "Wait... The consultant of the Wangsheng funeral parlor is the geo archon?" Keqing did not expect that at all and was flabbergasted.

"Hmm, I knew that guy wasn't normal. But not that abnormal either." Ningguang commented as she lit up a smoke with her pipe. Not really surprised that Zhongli was Morax all along, besides. Nobody would top Ein's introduction as Ei and Makoto's master.

"Hoh? My men talks about him sometimes, it seems I am correct. He really is someone interesting." Beidou commented as she nodded.

"I had my suspicions. But it seems he was even more than I thought, damn it Ein. You sure know a lot of important people." Yelan saw the opportunity and started observing all the attendees of the party. Seeing 2 other adepti that were typically aloof and didn't want to interact with humans were there.

Ein then finally introduced Ei and Makoto. And all of the mortals present were vision holders, making them quite tense. Even Morax could feel something really different about them and thought that they'll wipe the floor with him if they fought.

The party then started and Yelan immediately started socializing with everyone to get more information. Making Ein sigh at her antics as she kept on asking everybody personal questions.

Eula immediately went to the group that was gathered at Ein's table and talked with the twin archons along with Ganyu, Yae, and Shenhe.

"Barbatos, don't drink too much. You will disgrace us all if you let them see you so low." Morax reminded the bard and he waved his hands nonchalantly.

"Don't worry! I've got this, I would only drink a bit, I promise." Barbatos said and Morax narrowed his eyes at him. Thinking that it never ends with just a little bit.

He then sighed and looked at Ein. "Ein-sama, I've been meaning to ask you this. But can you help me with something? Azhdaha, one of my comrades have suffered from erosion..." Morax asked.

"Hmm, ahh. That little dragon that is sealed? I see, that is a terrible fate. One of my family members has experienced it already, so I know how it would end. Well, I guess I did prevent Ei and Makoto to have erosion. Though I would like you to make more mountains as I'd be blowing up a lot more with Klee over there. I don't want to make mountains see? It's boring as hell." Ein shrugged and Morax agreed readily. But he did look at Klee and thought how in the world is that little girl so destructive.

"I'll just send the dragon to you later." Ein informed him and Morax bowed in gratitude.

The party continued and as expected, the people have formed their little groups. Except Barbatos, as he was now without his top while playing his lyre. Absolutely shit faced drunk as Morax mumbled that he was a disgrace as an archon.

And while the festivities continued, a little girl with white hair and elven ears appeared. Making everyone look at her with interest. Especially, because whenever she walked, flowers and vegetation bloomed.

"Hey little girl. What are you doing here? You're the dendro archon right?" Ein asked as he felt a gnosis inside of her and she nodded. Shocking everyone except the 3 archons present. Makoto did not know her as she was one of the gods that have died early at the cataclysmic wars 500 years ago.

"Un, I am Kusanali." She introduced herself and Ein thought she looked like an even smoler Theresa with elf ears. (pic)

"Hmm, but you're not invited here. I'll let you in on one condition." He stopped her in her tracks and she tilted her head. Awaiting his condition.

"Can you make these grow?" He took out some seeds and Kusanali looked at them. She then nodded and Ein threw them on the ground, Kusanali then made them grew quickly.

Ein picked up the suspicious looking buds that had miniature crystal like buds and made them dry perfectly. He then took out a small piece of brown paper and rolled a blunt. Giving it to the young looking girl as she stared at it.

"You do it like this." Ein made another one and lighted it up. Taking a hit as he smiled at the dendro archon. He then lit hers and she took a hit too.

"Ein... Is that..." Ningguang had an idea on what it is and she deadpanned at him. "What? She's 500 years old. Isn't that right, Ei?" He reviewed the current members of the 7 and he knew that Kusanali was over 500 years old at least.

"Hmm~ This feels pleasant." Kusanali started to get high and Ein passed one to the adults. While he made an illusion for the kids so they won't get the idea to even try. Along with a barrier so the air they'll get is pristine. The purest air in the world even.

"Ein... I don't know about this." Ganyu looked at the lit blunt and Ein waved his hands nonchalantly. "It's fine... Ningguang even does opiates sometimes, it's much better than opiates you know? Oh, I know. Ningguang, you better not use opiates anymore, I'll put this in the market as an alternative."

Shenhe was already trying it out and she coughed a couple of times, but her normally droopy eyes started going lower and she looked like a sleepy, but happy person.

Mona looked at it suspiciously, but her innate curiosity made her try it and she started feeling floaty. "Woah, Ein. Am I in space?" He laughed at her and she got a bit clumsy after.

Ganyu then smelled it and didn't notice anything wrong with it, so she tried and coughed too like Shenhe. But when the high hit her, she started feeling nice.

Yelan and Rosaria were at the side, trying to outsmoke each other. Everybody then started to relax and enjoyed their food calmly. As it was specifically engineered to adapt to a person's tolerance and give them just the perfect amount of high.

"Ahhh, good job Kusanali. You've got some good shit coming from Sumeru eh?" He chuckled and Kusanali just laughed at him.

"Ein-san, do you sell this? I need this in my life." Jean asked him as she was constantly stressed while Lisa listened intently as it would be a great sleeping aid.

"Hmm, expect it to hit the shelves soon." Ein said and Jean beamed. Eula then started to get snuggly. "Ein, you philanderer. Everybody told me you were a beast!" She heard stories from the others and it was actually a major reason why they need more comrades.

"Though Beidou and the Tianquan did told me that you didn't make them do anything overboard. So that's a point to you." Eula snuggled to him as he patted her head and the others went up to them too.

"No fair, we're holding back you know?" Ganyu hugged him tightly as well, having a bit more desire to cuddle was her side effect of being high.

He then sighed and took out one of his cloud beds. Lying down on it as he gestured for them to come. They then piled on him and he cooled down the area so they won't get too hot. He also took out more of them and the party abruptly turned into a pajama party and the kids started to run out of gas too so they got sleepy.

"Ahhh, what a nice day. Peace really is the best." Ein sighed in satisfaction and enjoyed the company while they lied down on the soft cloud bed.

Thanks for reading everyone, I don't quite know how Kusanali is yet. But I'd imagine she would be the rational type as the god of wisdom. But a little bit of a kuudere too that is really curious about things she do not know. Anyways, ciao.
