Fenghuang's Legacy || Genshin Impact Fanfic

Heart To Heart (36)

Meanwhile.. In Bubu Pharmacy.

Noch, the Traveler and his companion has been trying to look for Atlas.

His disappearance was an odd one.

Though in the past, it is common for him to run away at times.

But, as he grows up, he rarely does it and mostly not even wanting to do it.

So, of course it was a shock for Baizhu and Qiqi.

It is also a bit of a surprise for Ningguang, though she remained calm, and helped his father to find him.

Although she needs to handle of the aftermath of Morax's death, and the sudden stopping production of Mora.

In the end, everyone was trying their best.

That's what has been happening..

-----------------------------------------------------------------

"Ya-hoo~"

Atlas turned around to see Yan Hao, smiling a him.

"What?"

"Nothing, nothing, just wanna tell you something"

Yan Hao sat beside Atlas on the porch.

It's another night in the place again.

Atlas sighed, and drank his tea as he looks st the night sky

The chicken-man however is still smiling silently and staring at Atlas, of course this creeps him out.

"What??" Atlas frowned.

"Nothing~ Just want you to tell some news"

He continued, "There's bad news and bad news, which one do you want to hear first?"

"It seems like I don't have any options"

"You DO, what is freedom without freedom of choice anyway?" Yan Hao tilted his head.

Atlas rubbed his forehead, "That doesn't sound like 'freedom' or even 'freedom of choice' to me, Yan Hao"

"Oh Atlas, you do have it"

"JustpickbothorI'llstrangleyoutodeath-"

"Fucking hell, fine.. Both of them, please" Atlas sighed.

"Good choice" Yan Hao said mockingly.

"So...?"

"Ahem"

Yan Hao cleared his throat, and started talking.

"Maya knows where we are now, and we're fucked"

"Also, she might go to your oh-so worried family and friends for 'advanced interrogation tactics'"

"In short, we're fucked and they might be fucked as well"

Atlas looked at him, "That's.. Nevermind" And sighed.

"We don't have more time, huh" Atlas mumbled.

"Exactly! That's why there's only one solution for us, that you hate so much!" Yan Hao cheered.

"Don't tell me that you're going to-"

"Give me your body, please"

Atlas's eyes widened, "Now that I think about.."

"Yeaaaah?"

"That sounds so wrong"

"Also, no"

"OH COME ON!"

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Maya ascended the high stairs of the mountain cliff.

The dark clouds that covered the stars up the night sky surrounded the environment.

As always, the moons was fully shining brightly in the night sky with small stars and clouds.

As she reached the final steps of the hundred stairs from below, she walks through the bamboo pathway.

It was dark, but there was small lamps giving light in the night at least.

Woooosh...

Then a small wind came from her left, her  bright pink long ponytail sways thru the wind as her skirt follows.

The dark clouds began to cover the full moon, making the environment even darker.

A dead leaf passed infront of her eye, as the leaf flies away however..

The small lamps that's hanging and in the ground suddenly turns off on it self, one by one.

Then, she could tell a smoke had surrounded her, completely blocking her sight.

She was left in a dark, then she heard footsteps.

There's a person, perhaps in front of her.

Unfortunately, she couldn't see that person because of the darkness.

Then, the person began to speak.

"Good evening~" Said that person.

The tone of the person's voice was all too familiar for her.

Yet, the person's voice was quite different than she remembered.

"Who are you?" Maya said as she's entering a stance, keeping her guard up.

"Oh my, it's just been a while yet you've forgotten me already?" The person chuckled.

"Ah~ What should I do with you?"

"Oh well.."

As shadowy person took a step closer, the dark smoke starts to dissipate and clears out the sky.

The full moon shines brightly above them.

The shadow is no longer covering that person.

It's Atlas, is it?

From what Maya recollected from her search so far, he IS Atlas.

The one she's looking for, and yet..

He gave off a weird aura, he looks strange as if his own sentience is not present at the time.

Maya widened her eye in surprise, this wasn't supposed to happen.

This isn't part of her plan at all.

"Haha! I managed to surprise you!" He cheered.

This 'Atlas' seems different, not only he wear an outfit that's a bit unusual for him to wear.

A 2 layer long sleeved qipao, with pants along high boots that's made out of metal.

The horn is wavy from the top to the end of the tip.

He wore short gauntlets with bandages covering the rest of the arm.

Seemed formal, but not really formal in a sense of it.

"You.." She mumbled.

"Ah! You finally remembered"

'Atlas' smiles at her, "It's me, your old battle pal that lost"

"Yan Hao, don't forget again~"

He may look, sound, and has a face of Atlas.

But, he's Yan Hao controlling the body fully.

"All thing aside, I must say.."

"Long time to no see, Maya Jiějiě"
