Married to a Harbinger [genshin impact]

19| Don't go

"As of Liyue law, there must be proof of an affair or clear direction of a cheating spouse, unfortunately, the letters you brought to me and the statements made by Hu Tao, Zhongli and even the adepti Xiao for your case isn't enough," Yanfei explained as she folded her hands over the table. Her gaze was still on [M/N], and a smile came up, "Luckily, you will be able to have some compensation from all of this. So! Since you have land and ownership on a shop, not to mention provide some economic funds to Liyue's banks, you will get 75% of his Mora. His leader had authorized it."

"So..I'm kinda rich." [M/N] said as he pushed some hair behind his ear. He had settled his divorce and needed Ajax to sign the papers. He also wanted his last name back from Ajax, it was only fair. "And my shop?"

"The Fauti had promised to fix it with their funds and even add additional connections throughout your homeland, with proper people of course," Yanfei said as she closed the book. "Now, all you need to do is have him sign the papers and then Lady Ningguang and myself will put the signature on the paper. Then your marriage will officially be over." She said as she gently slides the papers to him and [M/N] looked at it. Everything looked so hard to read and fancy looking but now, he had to get the courage to see Ajax.

It's been days now, since he put his wedding ring in Ajax's dish since Teucer had left and was almost moved out of the home. 

"[M/N] I would suggest waiting a few days but the news had come up with some connections that he's-"

[M/N] watched Ajax packed his bag of clothes, he leans against the archway of the bedroom door. He looks to be getting ready to leave for another mission, somewhere farther away than the Harbor. 

"Where are you going?" [M/N] asked as Ajax stops and looked at him, his face was blank and his dull eyes didn't show an ounce of emotion. "Don't have to tell me, but I need you to sign something."

"Fine." Ajax said as he placed his bag down and [M/N] hands the papers over with a pencil to sign. His blue eyes stared down at the writing and his eyebrows furrowed as he looked to [M/N]. "[M/N].."

"Don't, I'm tired of this between us, whatever it was..I'm tired of being in pain..tired of letting you destroy me like this. You're breaking me Ajax...and I'm so close to shattering...but isn't that what you wanted? To see how long I can take your abuse? Like a fight...you just want to see how long I can stand in the ring with you." [M/N] hugged himself a bit and sniffed a bit, "I just want to live my life...without."

Ajax listened and his heart did hurt, but it was for the best. [M/N] knew of everything now, how his past actions had hurt him and how he had stopped feeling something for [M/N], the second he met Lumine, everything started to make sense. Lumine and he were the same. More common ground that they shared, something [M/N] would never understand. "I'm sorry.."
