Fate-Bound Rivals - Chapter 4 : It's Called Speedrunning...(pt.2)

"Dang, Liyue has a lot more important people compared to Mondstadt."

"Actually, Mondstadt has more. Who have you met or heard of so far?"

"Uh, the three knights of Favonius, Diluc, Diona, and you mentioned Venti."

"Uh, well, even though we aren't in Mondstadt, let's go ahead and cover the others you haven't met."

"Uh-huh. Paimon will take it from here! There's adventurer Bennett, wolf-boy Razor, idol Barbara, alchemist Sucrose, and..and librarian Lisa and maid Noelle."

"How is that introducing? You literally just dumped a list of people!"

"Yeah, well that's Paimon's way!"

The two continued to argue, drawing some attention from the citizens of Liyue as the four walked through town.

"Oh, look who it is!", called a voice from above, "If it isn't the little miss from before!"

Jumping down from the place he was at, an orange-haired man straightened up and smiled.

"Hi Childe! You aren't up to anything shady this time are you?"

"Relax, Paimon, I'm just saying hi. Seems like you got new companions, Lumine. Nice to meet you, I'm Tartaglia, but you can just call me Childe."

"I'm Lancer. The guy in red is Archer."

"Hey Childe, these two are also other-worldly travelers. I'm just taking them around Liyue for a bit before we head to the palace."

"Oh, the boss fight with your memories me?"

"Yup."

"Sweet. Hey can I watch?"

"Sure. There's still a slot open in the party."

"Well, let's get going then! I want to watch them fight. And maybe fight them as well later."

"Hey, we're right here you know. You can just ask."

"Actually, Childe, if you fight them, you'll be beaten in literal seconds."

"Oh? And why is that?"

"Let's go watch them fight 'you' first."

"Fine, fine."

The five made their way over to the Golden Palace.

"Alright. You two ready? Childe?"

The three nodded and Lumine sent all five into the palace in her memories.

"Woah. This place looks sick!"

"Is that gold and gems over there?"(Archer)

"Why, want some? Not that you can get it though."

"No. Just brings up some bad memories."

"Oi! Carnival was great! I actually got a chance to live for once!"

"Only for a bit."

"But I still stayed alive for a while!"

"Carnival? And staying alive?", asked Childe.

"Long-story short, Lancer died every day."

"So you two really are zombies."(Paimon)

"Hey! To be fair, zombies die after their heads get blown off. We're more like spirits than zombies!"

Whoosh!

Appearing out of nowhere, a Tartaglia look alike stood in the middle of the arena.
