DISCONTINUED!! Ajax's Story (Genshin Fanfiction)

Chapter 3

... Ajax gotten a glimpse of those who chatted in the dark little corner.

-

"Is he the one who made that huge noise?"

"How would I know?!"

[ Thoses things.. what are they talking about. I'm scared]

He immediately went to try find his shortsword but the wounds near his stomach and leg were acting up, they were too deep.

"AHHH- no! I don't want to die, please.. Mother.. Father.." Tears started streaming down his face.

The creatures were alerted.

"Kid! Don't be scared."
[We'll be killed if you keep talking teyvat language in that scared voice.]

[ Was he talking to me..?]

One of the creatures were caving closer. Ajax had noticed it was and saw his shortsword was just a couple inches from his left side.

" Let me go! Don't come closer." Tears were still streaming while he said those words after he picked up the sword.

The creature stopped.

"Do you know any teyvat language..?"

"It's obvious.. ofcourse I can't."

The two creatures were talking to each other again.

Ajax was starting to feel light headed once more. He saw him and his mother in their house? She telling him a tale.

-

"My Ajax.. there is this tale about strange flotting creatures called Abyss Mages, it is heard they do not speak teyvat language. They have amazing powers.. but they attack us."

"..mother, why do they attack us?"

"No one knows dear. It may be a grudge, revenge, self defense, or they just like to kill people.."

-

Childe had been on the sidelines this whole time, watching his past self shake holding a sword.

[ I'm sorry for thoses two abyss mages. I can't keep dweeling with the past though, I should look forward to the future.]

Childe was staring boredly as his past self keep on threatening them with the shortsword.

[Hahh.. I wonder what Mr. Zhongli is doing, I hope to see him soon.]

-

It took rather long for the abyss mages to make a plan so Ajax hadn't been attacked by them or anything.

Time flew by like light but, not for Ajax. Ajax kept yelling at the abyss mages while the abyss mages were trying to communicate with him.

"illo?"

[Is that abyss mage trying to speak tevyat language..?]

"I +$)#93!! w(8#9t sto($)?"

{ A/N: The random symbols are just words the abyss mage can't teyvat language, I've been just making what they say so that you, the audience would understand. }

".. what.." [ All I understood was that it said hello.. I should use this time to run while they're busy discussing]

-

"What should we do? It doesn't seem like the child understands us."

"Tsk..He's probably scared now, we should watch him."

"Wouldn't that creep him more out and cause our death though?"

"... +$)#93!! the child is gone..!?"

"WHAT?"

"Let's go out! Come, hurry!"

—

Childe's wounds were acting up once more, he forgot about them but it didn't seem like much of a bother.

A man's footsteps were caving closer, silent yet loud. When the abyss mages heard this sound they were shocked, they were starting to leave the small space they found Ajax.

The loud steps were coming closer by the second, the abyss mages were currently rushing out. When the abyss mages arrived at the only exit of this contained space their heads were cut off. An intimidating man sliced their heads off..

Truth be told Ajax never left, he witnessed the decapitation with his own eyes. This man immediately noticed Ajax, examined him thoroughly.

"You there. If you wish to live, find me, I will teach you the ways to survive."

The man left, Ajax was dumbstrucked.

"What else could be here..? More of thoses creatures? Haha no way.."

He got up from the rubble that was caused from his fall.

"I should hurry and find him. I really don't want to die."

He rushed out of the small dark place and hurriedly picked up his shortsword. It was so dark that he couldn't tell where he was going, he had bumped into something.

[ Augh! That hurt.. some blood? How dangerous is this place.. I don't want to be here anymore. Mother, father where are you..]

A voice suddenly appeared.

" +$8$99!!;;!!谢hua+$90 !! Hwo7"

"Eh..?" [Tears started streaming down his face once more, his face was practically trembling.]

" +8)20."

[ Shou-u-ld I run..? No.. I need to follow this path to find that man! ]

Ajax was thrown to the side of a dark place.

"Gah-hH!" His ribs had the most impact, they were practically broken but, still intacted. Blood was flowing from his mouth and nose though.

[Ah..h..ah I feel light headed. Must find him.. that man.]

Before he fell unconscious he saw a figure similar to the man, or maybe the is that man.. has he come to save Ajax? No, the man told Ajax to find him if he wants to learn.

It seemed like the man was finished slaying that thing that attacked him.

"Yo kiddo.. I told you not to get killed but find me to live."

"..." Ajax couldn't talk from the impact.

"Hahaha, yeah of course. Here's some items you can use!" The man threw some items.

Ajax was somehow able to get voice. "Yo-u're n--a-ame.."

"Oh? My name.. it's Skirk."

He dashed away.
