Copy the Knights of Favonius Handbook Five Times

"Please choose: who is the Darknight Hero?"

"1: Acting Grand Master Jean"

"2: Diluc"

"3: Kaeya"

"4: Eula"

"5: Albedo"

"Regular livestream chat: thirty slots. Correct answers earn 40,000 Mora. Wrong answers earn two thousand meters of frog jumps."

"Elite livestream chat: Jean, Diluc, Kaeya, Eula, and Albedo may not answer and will not be selected. You have two minutes to consider."

[Amber: We can buzz in too? This... couldn't be Acting Grand Master Jean, could it?]

[Keqing: Judging by those moves, someone from the Knights seems more likely.]

[Sangonomiya Kokomi: In terms of values, Jean seems the most likely, but... there would only be a reason to ask if appearances could be deceiving.]

[Arataki Itto: Give me a hint! I don't know any of them. Who's Diluc? At least I know Jean's some kind of Grand Master.]

[Ganyu: Master Diluc owns the Dawn Winery in Mondstadt. His business spans Teyvat, and he's Mondstadt's biggest wine merchant. I've met him twice on business.]

[Arataki Itto: Then he must be loaded, right? If I had money, I wouldn't bother sticking my nose into this stuff.]

[Yoimiya: Everyone, I've made a major discovery!]

[Yun Jin: Do tell.]

[Yae Miko: Go on, go on!]

[Yoimiya: I was watching the regular livestream chat just now, and I noticed lots of people from Mondstadt saying it definitely wasn't Master Diluc, because he doesn't get along with the Knights. Is that true, everyone from Mondstadt? Give us some information.]

[Venti: Yes, yes! I heard about that while drinking at the Angel's Share. Master Diluc really looks down on the Knights.]

[Amber: I'd rather not comment, but that's more or less true.]

[Diluc: Hmph! I certainly don't like how the Knights operate.]

[Arataki Itto: Haha, doesn't that rule out one wrong answer? So who's Kaeya?]

[Kaeya: Sorry, that would be yours truly.]

A camera feed of Kaeya appeared in the elite livestream window. He was standing outside the tavern.

[Arataki Itto: Could it be you? You're all dark and wearing an eyepatch. You look like the sort of guy who does things at night.]

[Beidou: I wear an eyepatch too. You're not a sailor from Dornman Port, are you?]

[Sucrose: Mr. Albedo... is Mondstadt's chief alchemist.]

[Yanfei: And last is Eula, my dear friend. Eula's incredibly strong! When I was in danger back then, she saved me. She cut through two houses with one swing of her sword.]

[Eula: Yanfei, you're talking about me again. I'll remember this vengeance!]

[Yoimiya: Why would you hold a grudge against a good friend?]

Countdown: three, two, one. Please buzz in.

"Arataki Itto has secured the chance to answer."

[Arataki Itto: Haha, pretty quick on the draw, aren't I?]

[Ningguang: I simply found something a little suspicious, so I didn't buzz in.]

[Tartaglia: Let's see what you've got, my friend. Even eliminating a wrong answer would be nice.]

[Arataki Itto: Based on my analysis, first we rule out Acting Grand Master Jean and Eula. I don't think it's a woman. Next, we rule out Master Diluc, leaving Kaeya and Albedo. Albedo's an alchemist, so you can tell he can't be much of a fighter. That's why I pick 3, Kaeya.]

[Kujou Sara: Hmph, you actually know how to use your brain.]

[Arataki Itto: Haha, Kujou Turtle, just stand there and watch me get my reward. Be jealous!]

[Yoimiya: Too bad I didn't get to buzz in. I wanted to guess Kaeya too.]

"Arataki Itto answered incorrectly. His punishment is to eat one jin of beans."

[Chongyun: That was wrong?]

[Beidou: It's not Kaeya?]

[Ningguang: I knew it wouldn't be that simple.]

[Xingqiu: What? I had to wear women's clothes, and he just has to eat beans? How is that a punishment?]

[Paimon: Exactly! Paimon could eat five jin!]

[Lumine: All you think about is food. You must have been a starving ghost in your past life.]

[Kamisato Ayaka: There's something you don't know. Arataki Itto is an Oni, and beans are what he fears most.]

The regular livestream chat erupted with excitement, countless people reporting that those nearby who had secured a chance to answer had started doing frog jumps. There were three of them in Liyue Harbor.

"Oh my, Chef Mao, weren't you laughing at me just now? Doing frog jumps now, are you?"

"Tian Tie Zui, just keep crawling. You've still got seven laps left, don't you? I actually exercise."

"Look how fast Jiayi's jumping! That's the Millelith for you. He's trained for this."

Jiayi: "The Millelith stand firm, the mountains remain unmoved! The Millelith stand firm, the mountains remain unmoved!"

While the bystanders enjoyed the spectacle, a small feed in the livestream showed Arataki Itto on a hillside, a bowl of cooked beans now in his hands.

Arataki Itto: "B-beans... I'm not eating them! I'd rather die than eat them!"

With that, he threw the bowl away.

But the bowl hovered in midair.

"Arataki Itto has been detected refusing his punishment. Enforced execution will now begin."

Arataki Itto's entire body froze in place. "No... I don't want them! Why can't I move?"

The bowl of beans flew up, and a funnel appeared, aimed into Arataki Itto's mouth. Down they poured.

[Yoimiya: That's so cruel.]

[Chongyun: I'm starting to not want to participate.]

[Albedo: We were all forced into this. There's no option to leave or refuse to participate. I've already tried every method I could.]

Arataki Itto swallowed the beans and screamed like a pig being slaughtered.

"It itches! It itches! I'm suffocating! I'm suffocating!" Arataki Itto rolled around on the ground.

"I'm dying! I'm gonna die! Mommy... ah..."

He rolled from the hillside all the way down to the sea, and it went on for five minutes.

[Gorou: That's... that's awful. I really don't want to get an answer wrong.]

[Thoma: Now I don't either.]

[Xingqiu: I'll be having nightmares for at least a month.]

[Yanfei: It's fine, it's fine. Xingqiu looked lovely like that.]

[Xiangling: Yes, yes, he was adorable.]

[Xingqiu: I can never show my face again.]

[Kujou Sara is applauding.]

[Hu Tao: Arataki Itto, are you okay? Need our services?]

Five minutes later, Arataki Itto lay on the beach.

[Arataki Itto: I... I can... can still hang in there.]

[Jean: @Kaeya, let Lawrence know he needs to copy the Knights of Favonius Handbook five times.]
