Genshin Impact: The Rise of the Moon [HIATUS]

They went back to Childe and explained the Situation.

"...I see, Moon Carver, Mountain Shaper, Cloud Retainer, Conqueror of Demons, Pyro Dragon..... Some of these names have never come up in the intel the Fatui gets hold of. As a Returning Gift, I too have information for you three." Childe said.

"Regarding the Archon's passing, The Liyue Qixing's Response really has given me food for thought.... They've announced that, as the true Killer has not yet been found, They are not allowing anyone to pay their respects to the Exuvia. They've even gone so far as to try and cut off information..... But with the Rite of Descension of all, even the Qixing isn't able to keep a lid on things." Childe explained.

"Exuvia?" Paimon and Esther questioned in unison.

"It's common Knowledge in Liyue that Rex Lapis is also an Adeptus. The Geo Archon is also the God of Contracts, and is also known as the Exuvia prime of Adepti. The Mighty and illuminated adepti of today all signed contracts to protect Liyue way back then." Childe explained about how Rex Lapis is an Adepti.

"Guess that explains why they're all so focused on Liyue's Well being." Paimon said, Esther nodded.

"Naturally. They both have the responsibility and the aptitude for this job. If the ruling Qixing became unable to perform their duty properly, the Adepti have the right to take corrective action. The Geo Archon spirit has risen, so why would the Qixing hide his vessel? Truly Suspicious." Childe said.

"I agree, something is definitely not right." Aether said, also suspicious about this. Esther head started to hurt.

"All this talk is making my head spin....." Esther said. having spinning eyes.

"Oh! Right! He's the whole reason we came here! If the Liyue Qixing has locked up Exuvia and won't let anyone near..... Then our quest to find the seven is already over..." Paimon said, As Aether and Neoma both looked down in sadness.

"Oh? Your both trying to find the Seven? And just why might that be, Prey tell?" Childe asked, Aether glared at him, putting his hand on Esther's shoulder,pulling her back alittle bit.

"Nothing to do with you." He said.

"Heh.. Nice answer. A knight that gets duped by the Fatui would really be no knights at all now, Would they? But i can help you with that too you know." Childe said.

"Really?" Paimon asked, Childe nodded.

"Give me some time to find someone. Someone who can help you break through this stalemate." Childe said, then went to find someone. After a Few Minutes the went inside the Bank and asked about where Childe is.

"Ah Welcome friends of Childe. If you are looking for Childe, he is at Liuli Pavilion." Ekaterina explains.

"Ooh, ooh. Paimon knows where it is."Paimon said, and led them both Aether and Esther to the Liuli Pavilion. Then they saw Childe waiting for them.

"Aha, you've both made it." Childe said, seeing them walking up to him. "As promised, i have found someone who can help you. Someone who can solve the mystery of why the Liyue Qixing would hide the Geo Archon's vessel." He explained.

"So where is he? In Liuli Pavilion?" Paimon asked.

"He certainly is. Come, i'll introduce you. I took the liberty of setting up a business dinner. as per the Liyue customer." Childe said, as he and the trios walked up to the Liuli Pavilion, where two people noticed Childe and the trios.

"Welcome back sir, you honor us with your patronage. Mr. Zhongli is awaiting your arrival in the room you booked." The man spoke letting Childe and the trio go inside to see him.
