3RD POV

“ The view of the harbour really is gorgeous from here “

“ Not as gorgeous as-“

“ N-no ! Don’t say that “ you blushed swatting his hands from your red face
“ ...I was going to say not as beautiful as it’s history “ Zhongli chuckled at the girl who faked being offended by his words “ are you serious WhAt?” you gasped at his words

“ Of course I was joking its you... “

It was always you

Everything she did was familiar but Zhongli couldn't remember why

“ Please do not be mad at me or Childe at whatever I am about to tell you “ Stroking her black to violet hair he sighed as the burden sat heavily on his shoulders

“ Why would I ? “

“ I gave up my gnosis to live a mortal life, the dragon was a fake to get the people to believe Morax was dead “ He exhaled finally feeling the weight off his shoulders

“ WHAT ?! “ Your eyes widened in both surprise and relief “ Rex I-Isn’t dead...It’s you ?! “ Her eyed brimmed with tears

The day I saw that dead dragon , I thought you broke our promise...

Didn’t I tell you to stay alive so we could meet again ?

Zhongli thought those were only tears of relief of her god being alive

But those were also tears of happiness and anger

Why didn’t you tell me

If this was your plan why didn’t you tell huanying ?

How could you let me grieve for months before telling me this

“ But if your a god...won’t that mean-“

You knew his words were true , you would spend the next millennia together

I thought you told huanying you wouldn’t fall for those weaker than yourself morax ?

Or did you find my current vessel too big of a reminder of well

Me

That you couldn’t help but fall for ?

“ I promise we would be together forever I love you“ He comforted the crying female , wiping her tears with his thumb who held his hand

Yujing surprisingly took it rather well

“ I have to be fair to you since I didn't exsist at the time “ She chuckled bitterly laying down on his lap , adverting her eyes to the busy harbour beneath them “ I never got the chance to have such attachments as a god let alone archon...but I was particularly drawn to someone like you “

“ who was she “ you asked internally hoping to hear your name

It was guizhong wasn’t it you thought bitterly , unaware you ripped a sweet flower to shreds

“ She was younger...a god just like me I assume you know about the goddess of chaos Y/N ?“

Her heart fluttered hearing her name

Her real name

“ yeah she went missing during the archon war “

No she didn’t she served as your right hand man

“I didn’t know that was the last time I would actually see her before the war “

You couldn’t know

If i haven’t gone missing i would have been hunted down

“The goddess of chaos thought she would never be fit to be an archon , to rule over people. I tried to change her mind...for it was certain a warrior like her would easily win a seat among the seven .However I think otherwise“

I never saw myself fit to rule after all these years you still think the same about me you still are a stubborn blockhead

“ tell me more about her “
