"I wasn't expecting much the moment I heard that groups were being formed, but this is just disappointing"

Raiden scoffed as he tried shoulder bumping Kitayuu when walking passed. However, Kitayuu stood his ground and remained sturdy leaving their shoulders locked and their faces right next to each other facing opposite directions.

Raiden gave a menacing side eye, "Don't test me" he finally managed to overpower Kitayuu as he continued walking.

Bennet eyed Raiden angrily who ignored him as he carried on walking to sit on a nearby rock.

"Damn jerk" he whispered to Kitayuu

"I just hope the other person joining us isn't like him."

Kitayuu nodded in agreement, "Yeah, I don't see these commissions going well as long as Raiden is in our team, but at least we know we have a strong group member if things get sticky."

Kitayuu then heard a voice from behind, "You'd be lucky if he helps you in the first place."

The two boys turned around to find themselves facing their fourth teammate, a girl named Kamisato Ayaka.

"It's a pleasure to be working with you" she said smiling

"It's a pleasure to be working with you" she said smiling.

Kitayuu: "Oh you are Ayaka right?"

The girl nodded, "And as for you, pretty much everyone knows who you are."

"Hehe not for the right reasons," Kitayuu said embarrassed.

"I wish I could be like you," the girl responded

Kitayuu gave a surprised look, "Huh?"

Ayaka; "Imagine being able to control all 7 elements! Trust me when you get the hang of it, there's no doubt you'd surpass Saturo and become the strongest"

Kitayuu thought about her words, but had some doubts remembering the incident with Blade.

Before they could carry on Raiden interrupted them, "We're leaving at dawn first thing tomorrow don't be la-"

Bennet; "You can't just barge in and expect us to listen to a jackass like you!"

Raiden put a finger on Bennet's mouth, "As I was saying, We will head straight to Liyue Harbour early tomorrow morning, first of all it is close by and second of all it has the biggest economy in Teyvat meaning we will be rewarded heavily."

Before anyone could object, they found themselves agreeing to him.

Raiden; "Good, I'm going to sleep early, you better be up or I'm leaving your ass behind."

He headed to his dorm room and shut the door.

Ayaka; "Well I guess we should go to bed as well, wouldn't wanna be left out."

Bennet, "Tsk, can't we just leave him behind"

Ayaka shook her head, "I don't think that's an option, we just have to deal with it."
