Genshin Impact: Various x Reader

•Ch. 24•

Yup. I guessed right. So this person is named Childe, aka, Ajax. He's the 11th of the Fatui harbingers- yada yada yada. Since the encounter with Pretty Fair Lady, Signora, Of course Aether, Venti, and Paimon are skeptical of having Childe's help in their situation. I would be too.

While Venti and Paimon we're talking with Childe, Aether has excused himself and walked across the street from us for a few moments. "I'm not a bad guy..." Childe claimed before looking at us in an awkward silence. "... Okay perhaps I'm kind of a bad guy, but I'm not here to give you any trouble."

"I doubt that, the Fatui caused quite the trouble even in the past." I replied with a glare.

"Hey, that's the stupid Doctor's fault, I wasn't even around-" Childe began before letting a small sigh, "Would it be too much to ask for you to keep the scythe sheathed?" He asked as I barely realized that I still had my weapon out on full display. I finally put it away as Childe gave me a light laugh once more. "Haha, I thank you for your maiden nobility, Miss Y/n." He said with an eye smile as I rolled my eyes.

"I heard of your reputation in Mondstadt from years ago," he went on. "so I couldn't help but notice you during the proceedings back there... And of course, I know the real thing when I see one, you'd be surprised- actually no, scratch that, you'd be petrified of how I know how you looked back then even though we had never met. So I can tell you right now, you are truly Miss Y/n L/n, the bachelorette of Monstadt~"

"....I'm a what-?" I blinked a bit. Now my mind was running into different questions. How in the world would he even know how I looked like? How would he even know what my status and reputation is in Monstadt???

" I had also my eye on you the whole time, during the proceedings in the terrace, I know it wasn't any of you. Someone else was clearly behind it." Childe went on, completely changing the topic.

I was a bout to protest before Aether finally rejoined us again. "Y/n look! I finally got you your constellation!" He said as he shows me a golden vial. Oh I've seen these in the game! There's a purple and golden vials, purple representing a four star, while the gold one represents a five star-

Wait I'm a five star?.... Well it's not a surprise since Imagined my character to be an Archon after all... Which reminds me... Do I have followers? Or a nation? Probably not, after all, there were little to no people who believed in the existence of a fallen archon who isn't even one of the main 7 archons known throughout Teyvat. "Thank you Aether," I replied as I stared at the vial...

...

...

...

How do characters take it in? Do they drink it? Do they pour it on their head? Treat is like lotion or perfume??? It looked easy applying the constellation on characters as a player....... BUT NOT AS A CHARACTER THEMSELVES.

"Sorry Aether.... I don't know how to...apply this.." I replied with an embarrassed tone.

"Really? Ah well... It's easy..." Aether began.

"Just drink it as though your life depends on it!" Venti chimed in with a smile. "Although........ Heads up, it has a weird flavor... It's not the same with others, some say it tastes bitter, sweet, sour, stale, etc. Mine was bitter like wine."

"Of course it was! You alcoholic bard!" Paimon said.

I stared at the vial in hand as I feel nervous. "...well... You only live once..." I said, ".... Though I'm living seven lives like a cat so-" I opened the vial and already sensed the smell. The aroma reminds me of F/f (favorite flower). I closed my eyes and jugged the liquid down.

It tastes like I'm drinking perfume, the fuck-

I coughed and gagged a bit as Venti pats my back in comfort. "There there............. You still have five more to go!"

..... I want to go home....

Timeskip, brought you by Ushi the dancing bull! Look at his tail moving to the beat~!

Northland Bank

Childe waited for us inside this bank. I was amazed seeing how the entire interior was covered of gold from the walls to the decors. I walked around with wide eyes, catching a few Fatui workers eyes, watching my every move and whispering to each other.

"Aja- erm... Childe, is this place... Made of gold?" I asked curiously. Now, I've only heard bits and pieces of the story and lores in the game from my brother... I still didn't think that it would connect to my so called "imaginative world"... It's interesting and kind of scary...since I played in their lives and possibly changed the timeline... Whether if it's a good change or a bad change.

Childe gave a heart warming laugh. "No no, although I wish it was, and Pantalone would definitely want that too. Sadly, that isn't the case, they're just painted gold is all really." Childe explained with a smile before handing an item over to me while Venti and Aether peeked behind me to see what it was.

"This is..." Paimon began as she blinked in complete confusion.

"I'm not sure, exactly." Childe replied, "Sometimes, all money can buy is "things" and not a name for oneself."

I looked at it closer. Even though I barely played the game, I haven't finished Liyue's Story quest yet at all! Hngh... I really should go back to Monstadt and retrieve my phone... I'll find a quiet place to play the game somewhere where no one is going to question what device I have and no interruptions from idiots...

I looked up a bit with Childe waving his hand in front of my face with a childish grin. Like this idiot... I thought to myself with a pensive expression.

"Did you catch what I said girlie?" Childe asked with an eye smile, "I said if you head north from the harbor, then west from Guili Plains, you will eventually reach a Stone Forest known as Jueyun Karst."

"Jueyun...Karst...?" I repeated. Before my face paled a bit at a lost memory that just recently recovered after hearing that name. Shoot... That deer is going to recognize me...

I'm going to get an earful from Moon Carver...
