Genshin Impact, Breezing Through Teyvat

***

It looked as if the need to satisfy herself immediately burned within every crevice of Hu Ta\'o sweet, feminine being...

Yet she wanted him to decide on how far they went. If he obliged, they would start immediately as soon as they returned to the inn tonight.

She would gladly massage away the wearyness and stress accumulated over days with fervor and zest.

However, if he was hesitant, she would attack him in his sleep and ravish his own boundaries with ferocity, and satisfy herself with so much pleasure he might never be able to resist no matter how hard he tried. Bind him down into eternal dependency of lust.

But now, was not the time yet.

She had to wait.

Besides, there was still a situation at hand only someone as amazing as her could resolve, or else it might blow into some conflict or deadlock by itself for hours without an end in sight and she still wanted to show them around the magnificent Wangsheng Funeral Parlor...

She jumped down from Yomite\'s shoulders and walked towards Zhongli. With a single slash of her spear imbedded with the power of her pyro vision, the restraints around the man tore apart in a loud popping sound, turning into ashes right away before disappearing altogether.

Lumine looked on with a sad look, her hours of practice going to waste.

The God of Liyue was now set free.

"...Director Hu?"

Zhongli hummed inquisitively as he raised an eyebrow seeing how Hu Tao freed him.

"I must apologize, Old man. My friends are a little bit weird, but we meant no harm! Your identity must be important to you, hence we will keep it a secret! Lumi-Lumi just wants to desperately find her missing brother, so please understand. She\'s a good person."

"Hu Tao..." Lumine could barely contain herself as an ever-present warm smile emerged onto her beautiful face.

She was thoroughly moved by Hu Tao\'s consideration for her, especially since they weren\'t particularly close, and it felt awkward for her to seek assistance from others lately.

The only person Lumine was very close with was Paimon...and maybe Yomite. The rest of the girls she aknowledged to be there...yet she didn\'t seem to find a subject she could discuss with them.

Fischl was too difficult for her to comprehend, and reading books wasn\'t Lumine\'s calling anyways.

Hu Tao was way too cheeky and she never knew what she was thinking about or whether she was interested in talking with her.

Iris was lazy and usually only replied with nodding or shaking her head if she didn\'t have to speak...

And as for herself...

Lumine was someone who was unable to properly articulate her feelings, an ocean of emotions drowning within her mind.

And yet, she held genuine concern for people around her. The desire to ensure everyone was safe drove her actions; despite showing barely any signs of affection she often offered a helping hand even if a situation seemed like a simple errand, ensuring the success of those endeavours, be it against a group of bandits...Or to overcome monsters.

But socializing wasn\'t her specialty.

Even someone like Iris, the lazy dragon somehow got close with Fischl, yet Lumine wasn\'t successful in making any close friend in the party. She was just kind of..."there" like a third wheel in a group of best friends.

So she was comforted to know Hu Tao cared for her even if they weren\'t that close.

"You\'re a precious employee of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor. Nothing will change that. I treat my employee\'s the same! With kindness! Even if you\'re a much, much older Grandpa of a blockhead!" Hu Tao continued and slapped Zhongli on the shoulder multiple times to set the man\'s spirit at ease.

"Is that so?" Zhongli let out a small chuckle as he stood up slowly. "Perhaps I\'m getting old, but if it\'s like that, Director Hu, I shan\'t bear grudges. I could feel no ill will from them, I wouldn\'t hurt them. Please rest assured."

Then smiling as his gaze scanned from Yomite to Lumine, "Unfortunately, as stated before. I do not know where he could possibly be found. You are free to look for him anywhere in Liyue, I will not interfere, however it\'s unknown whether it would bear fruit at all. Try as you might, I do not posses the means to locate anyone within the city."

Lumine was quiet for a second before she nodded. She knew she shouldn\'t ask for impossible. If it was once stated he wasn\'t able to do so, then she should accept it.

Miracles rarely happened.

Fischl\'s single eye that wasn\'t covered by her eyepatch trailed over Zhongli to cast its cold gaze upon him again.

"Hais, this Prinzessin awaited a grand battle...Let justice be served upon the fragile shard of straw. For all who truly suffer shall receive mercy. Before the One known to man and god alike, as the Prinzessin Der Verurteilung freiheiteworden was set free."

With that she hid behind Iris in case of a sudden attack.

Still, despite resolving the situation, being regarded as "weird" by "Hu Tao", truly did some emotional damage to everyone around her. And to Yomite, especially.

(Lord forbid, I am still a normal person.)

"Alright, then. It seems we\'re done here," Hu Tao held out her palms upstretched and flashed a powerful gesture to everyone. "Let\'s leave me with the Old man alone! I have some things to ask him myself! I\'ll show you my room in the meantime and you can stay there for a bit!"
