Amendemtn XXI has three sections. How many are necessary if it was putatively to repeal the XVIII Amendment?
It seems that section II of XVIII is a clue; the States are being granted authority conferred under X.
Sweet.
Its good to be the King; wait for the shake.

Seems to me like their intent may have been to also make it a Constitutional violation, IOW a FEDERAL offense in addition to a state offense. But that's just my impression of it, not having studied the issue. Remember, the states were and are a party to the amendment process.
