Devil's Path (Genshin Impact x OC)

Chapter 14: Dancing Kites in the Wind

Opening 2

.

Two days would pass by in a flash as Lucius and Paimon meet up with Gaming over in Liyue Harbor.

Paimon: Hi Gaming! Paimon sees you've certainly gotten an early start this morning! Playing games already, are we?

Gaming: Heh, guess you could say that.

Lucius: Who won?

Gaming: I won... obviously.

Longzhou, a Communications Office Staff, arrives onto the scene approaching the trio.

Longzhou: Ah! Perfect, you're all here! There's an important commission I need your help with.

Gaming: Alright, I've got the time. Where are the goods?

Longzhou: It's not just goods this time. I need you to escort a tea merchant and their wares from Qiaoying Village to Liyue Harbor. A very important client has requested to meet with him.

Gaming: Sure. What's this merchant's address?

Longzhou: Here.

Longzhou hands Gaming a paper containing the address. Upon reading it, Gaming's eyes widen in shock.

Gaming: ("Oh boy...")

Paimon: If the client's that important, then this must be a very crucial, very pressing commission, right?

Longzhou: Um... Of course, the sooner you complete it the better. I would advise you to depart as soon as possible.

Lucius: Fine with me, my teleporting can make this easier.

Gaming: (sigh) Alright... Don't work too hard now, Longzhou. We'll set off then.

Arriving at Qiaoying Village, the trio approach the client waiting outside his house with his wares next to him.

Lucius: You must be the tea merchant heading to Liyue Harbor. We're here to escort you.

Yip Tak: ...

Gaming: Dad...

Paimon: Oh! So you're Gaming's father. It's nice to meet you! Just leave this delivery to him. Trust Paimon, he's got this in the bag. Gaming is super good at what he does! Everyone at the Secure Transport Agency says as much. Even the Ministry of Civil Affairs has nothing but good things to say about him.

Yip Tak: Seems like you've made some sort of name for yourself, at least.

Gaming: The... The goods are all in order?

Yip Tak: Yes. They're all here.

Gaming: Then let's get going.

Yip Tak: ...

Paimon: A very important client has asked for you by name. You kinda have to come with us. Paimon doesn't know how we would explain ourselves if you just didn't show up. Plus, you'd be missing out on a huge money-making opportunity.

Yip Tak: I see. I suppose I will have to trouble you all to escort me then. Let's go.

Yip Tak begins walking off as Lucius summons a current to carry the goods.

Gaming: (sigh) This is gonna go well...
