Side Story 10: Diplomatic Immunity? Says Who?

Ein and his entourage returned to the grand Narukami Shrine. He then decided to make a pool and initiated a pool party. He took out swimsuits and gave them to everyone. "Here, wear this. We'll be having a pool party!"

He then started to make some refreshing drinks and barbecue. A staple for a party. "Awawawa, this... Reveals a lot." Ayaka looked at her swimsuit and blushed heavily, as a noble and from a japanese bootleg country. She hasn't shown her body to anybody and was very shy.

"Oya, it is fine Kamisato Ayaka. We're in the grounds of the grand Narukami shrine, nobody would come here." Yae smiled at her and she trusted the guuji.

"This is kinda embarrassing Yae, and would this make me look fat?" Ganyu hesitated and saw that it was practically underwear. He gave her a black 2 piece and she went red like a tomato. Imagining his reaction when he sees her.

"It's just a bathing suit Ganyu. Why hesitate in the 1st place?" Shenhe quickly stripped and everyone looked at her funny. As Ein was just behind her and was cooking. "Ooh, boy. You should probably wear that inside Shenhe, I mean. Thanks for the show and all, but you'll probably kill Ganyu from shock."

Shenhe nodded and put her garments back in place, while Ganyu pulled her inside quickly. They then wore their swimsuits and went outside, not used to it as the clothes were basically underwear.

"Oh my. Ei, Makoto, you guys look nice. Ei has slightly more toned abs, but that's because she fights more." He gave a thumbs up and then looked at Shenhe and Ganyu.

"The simple swimsuit accents your curves perfectly Shenhe, very nice. Ganyu, you're not fat, stop hiding your curves. It's such a waste." He shook his head and Ganyu nodded shyly, putting her hands on her back to show off her figure.

"Yae, white suits you perfectly. It also digs a little into your skin, as a man of culture. I approve. Ayaka, don't be shy. Be comfortable in your own skin." He smiled and also took off his towel on his shoulders.

Revealing his toned body and muscles. "You can grate cheese with those abs." Yae made a comment and everybody looked at her weirdly. "Thanks, you actually can, somebody tried already."

He remembered Elysia sneaking up on him and grated cheese on his hard as hell abdominals. "Anyways, let's go party girls!" He took pictures of them and ushered them to huge pool. (Pics of them here)

They dipped their toes 1st, and it was heavenly. Ein made the water have a rejuvenating effect, and the pool's temperature was perfect. Not too cold, not too warm. They quickly started to swim around.

"Ein! Let's go! This is such a nice pool! It makes me feel veryyy good~" Ganyu felt like all of her stresses and tight muscles were unwinding. Making her feel floaty.

"Umu, this pool is magical. If I were to dip in here everytime I finished adeptus training. I would train all day and be rejuvenated here." Shenhe nodded in contentment and everybody relaxed while floating.

"Haha, it seems it didn't turn into a party like I thought." He then added waves to the pool and brought them some surf boards to enjoy an activity.

He taught them how to do it and they played for quite some time. Then the gang enjoyed a nice barbecue with some refreshing drinks that felt like they were filling up your soul in a summer day.

"I can get used to this." Shenhe continued stuffing herself and Yae nodded. It was nice being away from all the responsibilities and work.

"Right? I wish everyday would be this fun and relaxing." Ganyu thought it was nice, enjoying her time with him. Away from the back breaking work and having fun.

"Un, this is nice. Though I need to return to the estate. Nii-sama must be worried." Ayaka said and Ayato was malding from worry. The Shuumatsuban even denied his request for them to spy on the Narukami shrine. Calling the mission suicide and treason.

"Eh, don't worry about him. He'll be just fine." Ein waved his hand nonchalantly and he then looked at Ei and Yae. "So, I think it's time I know what's happening here in this country anyway. There's tons of rumors and there's even something called a vision hunt here?"

Ei and Yae winced when they heard that and looked down in shame. Yae, because she didn't do anything really. And Ei, because she left it all to their government. Due to being inside the plane of Euthymia, her mind space. Not knowing that the corrupt had such nefarious plans.

"It was due to the Fatui harbingers taking advantage of the nation. They enticed the officials with Mora. They are the agents of the Tsaritsa, the cryo archon and she governs Snezhnaya." Ei said, she researched about it and Makoto was surprised.

"Oh yeah, is she still that blue power ranger? Or the archon changed as well?" Ei shook her head. "She's a new archon. Only 2 are left that you met Ein-sama. Well, now 3 because Makoto has returned. It's Morax, Barbatos, and Makoto." She said the 2nd name with some aversion.

"Fatui harbingers? How can they even do that in the 1st place?" Ganyu then spoke up and remembered a hot blooded youth from Liyue. "They have diplomatic immunity Ein. They use their wealth and takes advantage of the people. Kind of like how you have diplomatic immunity now in Liyue." She gave a smug smile at him.

"Hmm, I guess I'll just bring my business in Mondstadt and Inazuma. They'll surely appreciate my shop." He countered and Ganyu went quiet. If they knew he pulled out of Liyue because of her, everyone would riot and start a witch hunt to find her.

"That's what I thought. Now... There's something we need to do it seems. Hunt them down like the pigs they are. Ei, cancel the decree. I now know anyone who were in the plan. And they'll be going to Brazil."

He said in a plain voice, but everyone nodded quietly. They don't know where Brazil was, but everybody understood, wherever that was wasn't going to be a nice place.

__

Ei along with Yae quickly took back the vision hunt decree. Efficiently cancelling it and bringing back the visions to the people. Though some has died due to resistance, the people didn't have any qualms about it much.

"People of Inazuma, the vision hunt decree is now over. It was all a ploy of a group of people that took advantage of the corrupt in our nation of eternity. The Fatui harbingers." Everybody gasped and a lot of officials and clan heads started disappearing.

Ein not only damned them to the shadow realm. He also gave them a chilling memory before their eternal imprisonment. "You've been a little bad boy. And your sins have caught up to you."

Multiple hands appeared from thin air and grasped on to them tightly, slowly sinking them to the abyss. It was a realm he made where you cannot feel anything. A hell scape that would torture you for eternity, forever alone with only your thoughts. Making even the hardiest and strongest wills crumble to time.

"Hehe~ you're going to Brazil." They all screamed, and he slowly pulled them inside. Then they were gone forever, never to be seen again.

"Whew, there's a lot of them." He connected with Ei's mind. "Ei, announce Snezhnaya as the number one enemy of Inazuma. It's an all out war, nobody from there can come near for 100kms near any land of Inazuma, except refugees. All trespassers would be shot down without mercy."

The shogun then made the announcement that surprised everyone. Though it was understandable, especially in the nation of Eternity. As they threatened the eternity of Inazuma.

Ein set up an array that would read any mind that comes even close to Inazuma. If they were clean, they could come. But if they were agents or spies. They would be vaporized immediately, no questions asked.

He then appeared at the platform with everyone else and patted her head. "Well, the announcement will spread far and wide. If they even try to get inside here, then they're in for a rude awakening." Shenhe nodded in satisfaction.

Violence was the question, and the answer is always yes for your problems. If it doesn't work, then you're not using enough of it.

"Okay, that's a nice ending to our trip here in Inazuma. We'll visit again everyone, fix up the country okay? Or I'll be punishing you guys severely." Ein teleported with Shenhe so they'd be back in Liyue.

"Did he just turn Inazuma into an impregnable fortress?" Yae shivered and thought that her home is now a death trap for anyone spying from Snezhnaya.

"Yes, yes he did. We have tons of work to complete. Our nation is in disarray, and we have nobody to blame but ourselves." Makoto said and they started to work to make Inazuma great again.

__

A little guy wearing a big hat then got shivers. He felt a huge wave of killing intent that was possible due to his sealed divine powers. "Wh-what was that?" He then gasped for air and patted his heart. Making sure it was still beating.

Ein's remnant energy washed over Teyvat and it was with a will. Decimate anything harmful from Snezhnaya without mercy, no questions asked. Hunt them down like the pests they are. Except the innocent that were brain washed are forgiven and teleported away, while the perpetrators that do it for a nefarious purpose gets a dog's death. And it came from the lands of Inazuma.

"I can't go back there. Something is lurking there that would kill me like a pig." His hand was trembling and he sweated like crazy. He then contacted Snezhnaya and reported the unknown variable.

__

Ein and Ganyu waved Shenhe goodbye as she wanted to talk to Cloud Retainer about their trip. Meanwhile, Ein and Ganyu decided to drink some tea with Morax that was surprised they came back quickly. Ganyu finally saw Morax again in centuries and thought it was like him to be a consultant to some business. Though it was an infamous one, the Wangsheng funeral parlor.

"I felt that dangerous aura to the core. What did you do in Inazuma?" He asked and Ganyu smiled wryly. "Ein purged the Fatui from Inazuma, now anyone that have bad intentions to Inazuma wouldn't be able to even come close."

Ein shrugged as Zhongli deadpanned at him. "They are surely a problem, and the solution was both efficient and long lasting." He decided that it was just for the best and didn't argue.

"Ganyu, I will be relinquishing your work back to you. It was surely easy with his inventions." He stood up and decided to come back to the Wangsheng funeral parlor, as he thought that it might get bankrupt or something without him due to its infamous director.

"Thank you Morax, I quite enjoyed my trip to Inazuma." He then quietly went away. Ganyu and Ein was about to leave after finishing their tea, but a tall young man with auburn hair came and noticed him. (pic here)

"Ooh, isn't it the master of the isekai walmart!? I'd like to give you a little offer if you're interested!" He sat in front of them and Ganyu looked at Ein worriedly.

"He's one of the Fatui harbingers Ein." He then got a glint in his eyes and decided to not kill him immediately. "Ohooo? What is it then? Pray tell."

"I am Childe, number 11 of the Fatui harbingers. I would like to propose a joint business between us. Your Isekai walmart is splendid and successful, I would like to see it at many more places besides Liyue." He smiled and Ein knew it was fake as hell.

"Hmmm, I see. Well, what would be your offer then? Put it on the table will you?" Ein leaned on his chair and started the negotiation. "I'd like to fund multiple smaller ones in all the nations. It's still pretty new, and I can't imagine that you have gained a lot of profit already."

That wasn't true and Ganyu knew it, making her smile wryly as the shop was protected like a fortress, nobody could spy in it and predict profits and new products. "Hmm, I guess. But I already have one in Mondstadt too and the shogun agreed to have multiple of them in Inazuma as well. I don't think you're richer than a state?" He was agitating him and it was working.

"Ahhh, well. We won't found out if you don't try right? We share our funds with the tsaritsa, Mondstadt is also a good ally of us right now due to our help to them. Especially of the terrible Storm terror." He smirked and thought he could take advantage of Ein, gaining more mora for Snezhnaya due to his unique, but cheap goods.

It was so obvious on his face, he doesn't have a good poker face. "Kukuku~ Well. It seems I'd have to try huh? My shops are actually made of a material called Imaginary tree, the metals are Adamantine. And a gram of each are estimated to be at least the price of all 7 nations of Teyvat. They're magical materials that even archons can't imagine to scratch."

Truth is stranger than fiction. And each isekai walmart really is made from the trunk of the Imaginary tree, you'd need to be able to destroy multiverses in one hit to even try and damage it. Such is its durability, not even counting the reality warping properties of it. A gram of the things could be a universe ending phenomena that can warp reality, or disassemble the universe to simple atoms like grey goo.

"Wh-what!? That's such a bold lie. You could just refuse you know? Though it's a shame we can't partner up." Ein laughed and looked at him in the eye, his becoming slits like a predator looking at juicy prey.

"Do I look like I'm lying? Ajax? Hmmm, that's a nice name. Heroic even, it's such a shame if anything happens to you. Your siblings would surely miss you, what's their names? Teucer, Anthon, and Tonia? Such cute little kids they are." Childe froze in his seat, his brain rebooted for a good minute.

Ein then stood up and put his arm over his neck and whispered to him. "I know where they are right now, in some backwater village in Snezhnaya right? Kukuku~ it would be a shame if it burned down suddenly and attacked by hilichurls. They'd surely enjoy the fresh soft meat of children."

Ganyu knew he was just acting, but she honestly thought it wasn't beyond him to do that, except the thing with the children of course. "Wh-wha!? How do you know my name? Who the hell are you!?"

He stood up and activated his vision, aiming numerous weapons of water against Ein. "Hmph, that doesn't matter." He waved his hand and his vision turned a monotone gray. His vision was shut down and it shocked him to the core.

"Well, I don't think you're such a bad person. A little crazy yes, but you still value the innocents, so I will be passing my judgement." He snapped his fingers and Childe suddenly kneeled down on the ground. Experiencing a floaty feeling inside of him as he started to morph.

"Nice, look at that Ganyu. Good looking guys that turns into girls are pretty hot don't you think?" Ganyu looked at him like he was crazy, but Childe's short hair became longer. And his chest became plump, his legs and behind got softer and now 'Her.' Hips became wider. (pic here)

"Wh-what did you do to me!" She shouted in a really cute voice that contrasted his earlier one. "Umu, I'm satisfied. You look good." He gave a thumbs up and Childe tried attacking him, but she stumbled due to her center of gravity changing. Her mastery of her body was in shambles due to the changes.

Ein even changed her clothes to a pair of female ones. Making the new girl almost die from shock. She patted her body and noticed the two lumps on her chest. "No... No. No!" She then touched her crotch and it was flat. "NO! NO NO! Bring me back to normal please!"

She begged on her knees to Ein that just took pictures and gave it Ganyu. "She's nice and tall, won't it be cool if I make her into a model of my clothes? I mean, Ei and the others could be as well, especially Shenhe. But she just catches the model aesthetic perfectly."

She was ignored and Ganyu conversed with him like everything was normal. Childe then fell down on the ground like her soul left her body. Her vision was deactivated, she turned into a girl, and she couldn't even fight as her body was drastically different than his male one. Something that she thrives in.

Ein and Ganyu then left her on the floor and paid for their tea. "Oh, Ein. The Tianquan of the Qixing wanted to meet with you. Go to this shop later okay?" She smiled and returned home with some spring on her steps.

"The Tianquan? If I remember correctly, she is like the senate here? Embodying law and order huh? Hmm, I guess I'll entertain her." He then summoned his eldest daughter. The most logical one unlike his kid with Kallen, Kiana, and Bianka.

She appeared, bathed in the blood of her enemies in some cultivation realm somewhere. Killing sects, she didn't like the pompous fucks, and she let them knew it through her fists. Her long green hair with silver tips were untarnished though, as she likes it very much.

"Daddy, I was exterminating some trash. Good thing I killed them all before your teleport went through." He cleaned her up and she hugged him tight. "Heh, is that right Ana? Come here baby girl." Her name was Anaahat. Meaning infinite, limitless, unbeaten. And she had an arsenal of weapons through her gates of babylon.

She had piercing green eyes that were like a dragon's. Anybody she looked at that were normal would tremble to her pressure alone. "Hngh, it was fun killing them all daddy. But spending time with you is still the best, mom is a bit crazy. And she's always trying to learn everything." She pouted because Mobius was always doing experiments or something.

"Well, that's just how your mom is. Now let's go, I want you to meet a little friend I made here. You guys would be the bestest friends!" His daughter was only 5, and she was already 5'8 tall, inheriting the finest of genes.

"You're so tall now baby, you could already destroy universes! You grow up so fast, let's go and play with the little spark knight." They teleported to Mondstadt and found Klee who was reading the hand book for the knights of Favonius.

It was her punishment for allegedly blowing up the HQ. "Heya little spark knight, what are you doing?" He patted her head and gave her a cone of ice cream. He also gave one to Ana and they both looked at each other.

"Hi! I'm Klee! What's your name nee-chan? You kind of look like Ein-nii." She tilted her head and Ana liked the cute little Klee. "Daddy, can we take her home and make her stay like that forever?" She didn't have a little sister that was this cute as they all grew up quickly just like her.

"Sadly no, go on baby girl. Introduce yourself." She then introduced herself and Ein got an idea. "Hey Klee, want to meet some new friends?" The little Elf nodded in glee.

"Un! More friends to play with! We could go bomb fishing and eat the fishies!" Ein smiled and went to get Diona and Qiqi, surprising them at 1st. But quickly calmed down when they saw him.

"Ein-nii, coconuts milk." Qiqi grabbed his sleeve and wanted her favorite drink. She was still a bit emotionally blunt, but she enjoyed her life now. Meanwhile Diona looked at the ice cream Klee and Ana had in their hands.

He gave them their requests and Ana gushed at the kids that were older than her. Reveling at their cuteness. "I'll call this, the loli brigade. Come on everyone! Onwards to victory!" He led them to a lake and gave everyone bathing suits to play in the water. He even made it warmer because Diona hated cold water even though she had an ice vision.

Ein prepared some barbecue while the kids swam. "Hey everyone, let's see how many fishies we can catch and give it to Ein-nii!" Klee proposed and everybody started to try get some.

Klee bombed an area, while Diona and Qiqi froze the the fish and they played in glee. Ana busted out golden chains from her back and it slithered around like it was alive. The 3 kids thought it looked cool, but it was the chains of Enkidu that were made by Ein to bind abstract concepts. Literal gods that would lose their powers when touched by it, turning them into a wet noodle.

"Ein-nii! Look! Ana-nee is so cool! Though I won't lose!" Klee started blasting and it made Diona and Qiqi work together. They then presented their catch to him and he patted their heads. The loli brigade then started to drool from the juicy and fat eel he was cooking with some sauce.

"Order up girls! Come on, don't be shy." Diona snatched her bowl and started eating with gusto. Klee and Qiqi were mind blown from the 1st bite as Ana chuckled at their antics. "They're good kids aren't they daddy?"

He nodded and started to grill the fishes they caught. Cooking them in different styles, but the loli brigade liked his grilled eel the best. Ein even helped them digest it in a heart beat so they could eat as much as they like.

"Your food is the best daddy, in those cultivation worlds. They only care about their magical grass that grows only once every ten thousand years, so I burnt it all to the ground because it tasted awful." Ana remembered the shitty herbs there and he laughed.

"How about some... Dessert!?" He took out a multitude of sweets, from different flavors of ice cream, to baked pastries and cakes. "This is the best day ever!" Diona's little ears twitched and her tail swayed left and right vigorously. Sniffing the delectable sweets.

"Un, this pairs well with coconuts milk." Qiqi was eating some baked good while drinking a glass of coconut milk. Klee jumped in joy and they ate to their hearts content. Ein then took a picture of them to commemorate the day.

"Whew, I'm stuffed! You're the best Ein-nii!" The loli brigade hugged him tight and thought he was the bestest big brother ever. "Really? You're making me blush." He then gave them some souvenirs so they could eat them at home while he was gone.

He then dropped them off to their homes and walked with Ana while they were in Mondstadt. "Baby girl, can you feel it? Those negative emotions filled with malice." She nodded and he explained the Fatui harbingers.

"I want you to open the gates of babylon in Snezhnaya. Remember, no russian." She nodded and golden ripples appeared behind her. She entered it and disappeared with a sadistic smile on her face.

"I wish she won't go too crazy, Ana. You're just like your mom you know?" He sighed and went back to Liyue to meet with Ningguang.

__

Ana appeared at the icy country of Snezhnaya, her body leaking power and golden energy. Ripples appeared behind her back and world ending weapons peaked out of them. "Daddy said no Russian. So no innocents, well. There's not much of them here anyway, mommy Bronya would be at home here, a shame they've violated the laws of the world, pissing daddy off." She then rained them down like golden missiles.

"Hehe~ Guhahahaha! Die mongrels! Be grateful that you will perish by my hands!" She laughed like a madman and killed everyone that were corrupt or malicious with pinpoint accuracy, the death toll wasn't that big actually and she continued.

A woman with light gray hair then appeared. Surprising Ana as she looked like one of her mothers, Bronya. "Woah, that's freaky. You look just like mommy Bronya." She then felt her purpose and it wasn't really evil. Just needs a lot of sacrifices to accomplish.

"You dare! Snezhnaya will not succumb to a god like you! I will free Teyvat from tyranny!" She started to freeze the surroundings but a chain wrapped around her neck. Making her limp.

"Wh-what..." She couldn't even speak properly and the chains were just touching her slightly. "Okay mommy Bronya look alike. Just let me clean the trash of your country okay?" She continued targeting key places and the tsaritsa could only look on in horror.

After a few minutes of flying around and cleaning up. Ana dusted her hands off, giving a proud smile. "And, done. Daddy would be proud of my efficiency. Oops, look at the time. Mommy Eden would scold me for not returning for bed time." It was already 8 in the evening and it was time for bed.

"Mommy Bronya lookalike, bye~" She was swallowed up by the golden ripples and disappeared just like that. The tsaritsa was surprised that her country just had a few blown up houses and buildings. Thinking that this must have been a coordinated attack with a higher purpose.

It would surely bring her sleepless nights as she agonized why that green haired woman attacked. Not knowing it was a 5 year old.

__

Ein arrived at a prestigious tea house and was escorted to a table with a white haired woman. "Welcome Ein-san. I am the Tianquan of the Liyue Qixing, Ningguang. It's good to finally meet you." She gave a business smile and Ein shook her hand.

"Nice to meet you too Ningguang, so? What's the occasion?" She called for a server to get them some tea 1st. Looking at Ein from head to toe, trying to get as much information on him as possible. The popularity of his shop was skyrocketing, and he was already untouchable in Liyue. She also heard he had a shop in Mondstadt and there was confirmed info that he was close with the shogun of Inazuma.

"1st of all. Thank you for coming here to meet me Ein-san, I know you're a busy man. 2nd, let's not delay things further, what is your plans in Liyue? As the Tianquan, it is my role to uphold the peace and order here in Liyue you see? And you're a variable that can destabilize the nation." She got frank because she doesn't have any important info on him. Instead relying on her communication skills to try and get some.

"Hmm~ a good question." He looked at her and gave a cheeky smile. "Well, I haven't done anything wrong did I? That answers your question doesn't it? I'm just a normal businessman that thrives here in Liyue. Nothing much." She bit her inner lip and thought he was a tough nut to crack.

"I see, but you don't have any contracts that could bind you for responsibility except the land your shop is in. You must understand that it is quite risky for us the Qixing." She tried pressuring him, but he only laughed.

"Ahhh, you're scared aren't cha? I understand that too well, I come in. Dominate the market, and you can't control me like the others. It's such a cliche soap opera plot." He shrugged and his words made her wince.

He was right, and she felt like he was out of her control. Like Beidou, but the captain of the crux still cooperated with her. Unlike Ein, and he doesn't seem willing to be under the law.

"Tell you what, I'll sign a contract. That I won't harm Liyue in any way, I would even let Rex Lapis mediate in it. He's a friend you see? But what's in it for me? As a business tycoon, you already know that the contract needs something of equal value in exchange." She gritted her teeth and could only nod.

It was the basics of the basics, but she was out matched. Beaten by her own specialty that she prides herself with. And with just a simple contract. She then sighed, thinking it was good enough with that. "What do you want anyway? If Rex Lapis is your friend, and the Raiden Shogun, they could give anything to you anyways."

He tapped on the table and stared at her. Increasing the tension, pressuring Ningguang immensely. Something that she does to people, not the opposite. "Hmm~ what indeed." He then looked at her closely and nodded in satisfaction about her goals, Liyue's best interests.

"You're a good hard working girl. I quite like them you see? So how about a little date? Nothing much." He shrugged and it made her choke. She had been proposed to numerous times, but this takes the top spot. No questions asked.

"Hehe, Hahaha!" She started laughing and it brought her to tears. Wiping it off with her finger and Ein pouted at her. "What, haven't experienced a date? Then I'll give you a good one." He appeared behind her and whispered at her ear.

She almost fell from her chair and thought this was the craziest day of her life. "Sure, but prepare yourself Ein-san. I'm a high class lady, I demand greatness." She smiled and started liking him more. He was playful, incredibly smart, and powerful. She thought that if she were to give a date, it would be with him.

Though she doesn't know that even the Raiden Shogun could only bow down to him and fulfill his wishes. She would die of shock if she knew.

"Okay then Ningguang, I'm quite adept in these matters. Leave it to me, I'll leave you breathless." He poked a pressure point in her hand and it was like electricity flowed through her veins. Making her relax to the point that she felt floaty.

"See you later." He then walked out the door and she started thinking seriously about him. "Who is that man really. There's no records of him anywhere." He piqued her curiosity and it was driving her crazy.
