"We got time before we meet with Childe and his 'associate' right?"

At my question the two nodded, not looking away from the city around us.

"Alright, so how's about we go and get that book, the liyue version of the Teyvat travel guide yeah?"

They nodded once more.

It was funny to see them all hyped about Liyue. I remember getting a rather exciting first impression as well.

Giggling at their awed expressions, I took them by the hand and ran towards the only book house I had come to know in Liyue.

Still looking at the scenery, Paimon and Aether allowed themselves to be dragged, which made things easier for me.

✧・ﾟ:* ♡ *:・ﾟ✧

"Heeellloooooo Ms.Jifang, We're looking for the Liyue volume of the Teyvat travel Guide. Do you have it in stock?"

With a shocked look, the boss of the Bookhouse gasped. "(Y/n) I didn't realize you made it back to Liyue."

Laughing at her inquiry, I couldn't help but respond, "oooo~ I didn't realize I was famous around here. Did you miss my presence?"

"Now now, don't get ahead of yourself. The only reason I noticed was that the weird girl who would always check out childish picture books went missing. I'm sure many here noticed."

"Ah- shhhhh don't expose me like that Ms.Jifang! And they're Manga! They are not c h i l d i s h" I detested the word she used to describe the ancient texts.

The owner sighed, "of course I know, I was just messing with you... Though, about the travel guide, I'm afraid we stopped stocking that awhile ago."

Paimon whined at the mention of this and began to worry about where we would get the book.

While she was panicking, Ms.Jifang took it upon herself to tell us of another way we would be able to acquire the book.

There was this old man near Qingce village who would receive out-of-print books now and then. He might have had it in his collection.

At this, another had made their presence known.

"Did somebody say Out of print books?"

With the entrance of this newcomer, we turned to get a look at who he was.

Before we stood a young male, with light blue hair and a very refined aura. He was rocking boy shorts and a coattail. For making that work he already had my respect but...

I could sense something disturbing from him.

"Is there a chance that Volume six of 'Legend of the shattered Halberd' is also in his collection?"

Swallowing my anxious thoughts I gathered enough courage to ask, "Who are you?"

I could hear Paimon gasp from behind me then quietly whisper to Aether, "it's so tense. this is bad"

The blue-haired male pondered a bit then squinted his eyes at me.

He had a confused look on his face, and if I didn't any better, he was having the same thoughts as me.

Man's was shook.

"Apologise my liege" he bowed and reached a hand for my own. once he took it, he kissed it softly. "My name is Xingqiu, a humble literature enthusiast who happened to be passing by."

I looked at him with a blank, soft smile expression, mirroring his own.
