It's been a day since the encounter with Scaramouche. That encounter woke you up for some reason. Of course you wanted to progress in your skills before meeting him and you wanted to travel the world of Teyvat before knowing he'd be waiting for you. But seeing him made you realise that you needed to become stronger.
Which leads to how you've acted towards him. The reason you 'attacked' wasn't because of his status or him seeming violent at first glance. It was more of a reaction of your survival instinct.
When he attacked you, you felt overwhelmed by his aura creating some sort of pressure on you.Also when his hands reached the pole-arm you saw his left wrist. It showed his level. It read: level (90). He was fully levelled, what were you thinking. You keep thinking how stupid you were but after all, all you want is to improve. Make him proud? No why would you, he doesn't care. Right? You shake your head, trying to stop thinking about him.
You were in the library collecting your thoughts. You sat at a table on the first floor 'reading' a book. Well, you wanted to read to ease your mind but you keep making u-turns to thinking again. "How do you like the book sweetie?" You were startled and quickly closed the book as a reaction to that shock.
"Oh I didn't mean to startle you." It was Lisa. The purple and white outfit, the hat, her dark blonde hair it really was her in the flesh.You have encountered her before when Amber showed you around the building.
She wasn't in the library that much, to your surprise. But you did find out why. One night you heard screaming outside so you went to take a look and probably alarm the guards. You put on a coat and walked towards the source of the noise. There was also a zooming noise. Like electricity? Couldn't be that right, this place isn't that advanced. You greeted a cat at the street corner and continued to the last bit. You summoned your swords and quickly ran around the corner.
What you saw was a guy on his knees. His clothes were a bit scorched he looked in pain. On the side the cause of his pain stood. Lisa in all her glory. At one hand a book was afloat and in the other she held another book. She looked at him, if looks could kill he was already dead. There was a purple glow surrounding the area, her eyes were glowing purple too.
You two locked eyes. Her expression turned into a sweet one. "Shhhhh." She put her index finger to her lips. "We don't want people to find out now do we?" She winked and turned back to the man. "Now where were we?"
Later she explained the man was very late at bringing the book back to the library. After that day you swore to yourself you'd never mess with her. "Ah uhm yeah it's great." You lied you didn't pick up anything from it. "You look troubled. Can I help you with something?" She sat down beside you and took the book from you since she saw through your lies.
"You caught me." You sighed. "I'm just thinking about the future I guess. I don't think you can help me." She looked confused. "What do you mean?" You cupped your jaw so you'd be in a thinking position. "Well, I want to head to Liyue soon. I uhm have some business there. I want to level up first though. I need a plan."
Lisa nodded. "I know a person that could help you with a place to stay in Liyue. The rest is up to you." "Thank you so much Lisa!" You beamed. She patted your head and stood up. You looked up at her. "Follow me." She said. "Oh and do you want to lend this book?" You recalled the moments of that night. "N-no thanks! I'll just come by another time."
The two of you arrived at an office. You knew from who it was but had to act oblivious. "So who are we meeting?" "The acting grand master Jean. Now come on in." She opened the door. A quick scan of the room led you to Jean. She sat there hunched over paperwork in complete concentration. Her blue eyes seemed very tired. You felt bad for her, she does so much for Mondstadt. She really should take more breaks.
