Diluc Ragnvindr, the general of the Knights of Favonius, was well-known throughout the lands of Mondstadt. Although he was not the most outwardly gentle man, he truly had a heart of gold. He is always levelheaded and prioritizes the lives of the empire above all. He has proven time and time again his loyalty to the throne and has done his best to serve the royal family as their intrepid blade. His overwhelming strength and valor have proven to be in the best interests of the country.
Once again, he has triumphed over the enemy on an expedition towards the farlands. The spoils of the journey were fruitful and aided many in need of materials for the kingdom. He was quick to return to your side and give you a thorough report of all that occurred on the journey. Your expression told him you were pleased, and he was more surprised when you gave him your thanks.
"Thank you..?" Diluc murmured to himself, his face heating up with embarrassment before falling back into his stony stare. As a general, he felt it was inappropriate to express intense emotion around nobility. However, your words didn't fail to melt his heart. It was a great feeling to be appreciated. He then cleared his throat and replied, "It was nothing, Your Majesty. I am but a knight safeguarding his motherland."
