The Overlord of Teyvat: Genshin Impact x Overlord crossover

Part 7

"Huh?!"

Joy radiated from Lisa as the weight of the curse lifted, leaving her elated and grateful. The mysterious Momon, the hero of Mondstadt, had successfully eradicated the curse that had threatened her life, rendering it as inconsequential as a discarded toy.

However, in the midst of her jubilation, Lisa's eyes widened in astonishment. What lay beyond the mask of Momon, the enigmatic savior, unveiled his biggest secret, and the revelation was beyond belief. Lisa, momentarily frozen, beheld an image that defied her expectations.

She had anticipated seeing human features—skin, flesh, or blood. Yet, what greeted her gaze was far from the ordinary. Momon's head was not adorned with the expected human countenance; instead, it was a skull, a pure white testament to a skeletal form. Lisa, confronted with the surreal sight, could hardly fathom the revelation before her.

Momon, the hero she had trusted, wasn't a human at all. The realization struck her like a bolt of lightning. The mask concealed not a face but a skull, unraveling the mystery of Momon's true nature—a strange skeleton creature that defied the norms of Mondstadt's known inhabitants.

"Oh shit..." Momon's internal reaction echoed the gravity of the moment. The revelation of his skeletal form had the potential to turn into a catastrophic situation, one that might necessitate drastic measures to preserve the secrecy surrounding his true identity. If Lisa reacted with fear, Momon would be compelled to manipulate time and erase this unsettling incident from her memory.

"Momon..." Lisa's voice cut through the tension in the room. The expected scream or expression of terror was conspicuously absent. Instead, Lisa, in a surprising turn of events, regarded Momon with curiosity.

"What are you?" Lisa inquired, her gaze fixed on the crimson dots that served as Momon's eyes.

"I'm not a human... Don't you remember that part?" Momon responded, attempting to guide Lisa's memory back to the acknowledgment of his non-human nature.

"I know, forgive me, but... are you actually a... skeleton?" Lisa pressed further, her curiosity overcoming any fear that might have lingered.

"Kinda, but I don't like being called a skeleton. I am an undead, and my species is called Overlord," he explained with a measured tone, laying bare the identity that he had concealed behind the mask.

"An Overlord?" Lisa repeated, mulling over the unfamiliar term. Her gaze lingered on Momon, the being before her now defined not by the macabre image of a skeleton but by the enigmatic title of Overlord.

"Yeah..." Momon lifted his upper body while Lisa was still standing on top of his lap.

Lisa's reaction defied the expected norms when faced with such an unusual and otherworldly appearance. Instead of recoiling in fear or shock, she exhibited an uncharacteristic curiosity. The Librarian of Mondstadt, driven by an intellectual inquisitiveness, reached out to touch Momon's skull, her fingers tracing the contours with a gentle and deliberate motion.

"I'm speechless, Momon. I never imagined encountering someone like you." Lisa's eyes widened with a mix of awe and disbelief.

"I'm glad it had an impact. But, Lisa, I need you to promise me something—keep this between us," Momon urged, swiftly pulling his mask back on, concealing his identity once more.

"That won't be a problem at all after what you've done for me." Lisa prevented Momon from covering his face and kissed his non-existing lips (teeth). "I would have loved to go further...~"

Momon, caught off guard by Lisa's boldness and her suggestive expression, found himself in a moment of unexpected intimacy. The atmosphere in the room, once filled with curiosity and acceptance, now took a turn into uncharted territory.
