4 Chapter 4 - Completed Quests?

"Rin~ Rin~" a voice called out to him.

He felt his body shake as the voice grew louder.

"Rin~ Wake up!" The voice got considerably louder.

Opening his eyes and sitting up, he didn't realize Lynx was sitting on his body, resulting in a collision between the two.

"OW!" Both shouted as they held their heads.

"Rin~ That hurts!" Lynx pouted, holding his forehead.

"I'm sorry, Lynx. Let me blow on it for you," Kaiserin apologized.

*Hoo* *Hoo*

The door slammed open and a person entered.

Somehow, it felt familiar...

"Did you give him a good morning kiss?" Zhongli asked.

"No, I accidentally bumped his head, so I blew on it," Kaiserin quickly explained, having learned from the previous day's incident.

Zhongli stared at them without responding.

Until a small voice came from his direction...

"Sigh, Adonis, this incarnation of yours is too oblivious to his surroundings..." Zhongli muttered with a calm expression.

I heard that...

"Mmm... Why are you guys flirting in front of me!" Lynx protested, his cheeks puffed up like a pufferfish.

Somehow, it's adorable... I want to pinch them...

Perhaps because Zhongli noticed me staring at Lynx or felt that I hadn't been going out much, he started carrying me in his arms when we went outside.

"Hey! What are you doing, you pervert? Let go of my Rin!" Lynx chased after us.

I don't know why, but upon hearing that, Zhongli paused for a moment before picking up the pace.

"Hey! Slow down!" Lynx shouted.

After a chase reminiscent of Tom and Jerry, we arrived at the Third-Round Knockout, where Zhongli usually listens to the storyteller in the game.

At the table, there was an unexpected, yet somehow expected, person.

"Zhongli-sensei, you're here. And with a few guests too," the man said.

Oh... He's quite handsome too...

As I snapped out of my daze, I noticed them all staring at me. The man smiled, Zhongli's gaze darkened, and Lynx pouted, making me feel guilty.

"Um... what?" Kaiserin stammered.

"Nothing, I was just wondering what your name is," the man asked.

"Oh-oh! Hello, my name is Kaiserin Kaslana. And what's your name?" Kaiserin asked, though I already know your name.

The man smiled and replied, "Why hello there, I am Tartaglia, the 11th of the Fatui Harbingers, code name Childe. Delighted to meet you."

His smile feels slightly unsettling... I blushed at his smile.

"Um... likewise..." Kaiserin replied.

The moment I said that, I felt two intense gazes on me.

Without even looking, I already knew who it was.

I turned and saw both Zhongli and Lynx staring at me intently.

Meanwhile, Childe smiled, seemingly amused by something. But at that moment, I felt a mix of delight and anxiety.

We ordered food and ate in silence. Unsure of what to do, I decided to check my status to see if there were any new developments.

[Open Status], Kaiserin thought to himself.

Where did I get those Status Points or even those questionable titles?!

[Rin~ You were sleeping, but they came from the Quests that you completed~]

What??!!! I didn't know that?!

Wait... Can you hear me??

[Hehehe~ Rin, you've discovered my secret~]

Ho-ho-how EMBARRASSING!!!! I can't believe I said all those embarrassing things in the past and you heard me!!!!

[It's okay, Rin~ Even though I heard you, I'll pretend I didn't...]

That's not any better!! Sigh... Can you show me the Quests I completed?

Kaiserin attempted to divert Lynx's attention.

[Okay!]

[Main Quest: Journey to Liyue Harbor

Description: Liyue is a harbor city nestled amidst mountains on three sides. Beyond the inland mountains lie vast foothills, plains, fords, and abundant mines teeming with precious ores. Skilled craftsmen transform these ores into exquisite crafts.

Rewards: 25 Status Points]

[Side Quest: Encounter the Geo Archon

Description: The Geo Archon is the eldest among "The Seven," possibly being one of the oldest gods, surpassing six thousand years of age. Surrounded by numerous legends, some true and others embellished, he is often depicted as an all-powerful deity who conquers all.

Rewards: 10 Status Points]

[Hidden Chain Quest: Evoke Jealousy in the Geo Archon

Description: You have encountered the Geo Archon, also known as Rex Lapis, the god of contracts and wealth. Revered and esteemed by the people of Liyue, they follow his teachings and honor his agreements.

Curiosity about his personality arises within you. You wonder if he possesses emotions and feelings or if he remains a distant and cold deity. To test his patience and interest, you decide to engage in actions that may evoke jealousy in him.

Rewards: +5 Charm, 15 Status Points]

[Hidden Quest: Acquire a Vision beyond the Seven Elements

Description: Visions are divine blessings bestowed upon mortals by the gods, recognizing their exceptional potential, talent, or determination in a specific element. They manifest as crystallized forms of elemental energy, granting wielders the ability to manipulate the corresponding element. There are seven types of visions, aligned with the seven elements: Anemo, Geo, Pyro, Hydro, Electro, Cryo, and Dendro. However, is there more to it than meets the eye?

Rewards: Legacy of The God of Rebirth]

Wait a moment! I never had any curiosity about his personality! And I certainly did not intend to make him jealous, did I?!

[That's why, Rin~ You should steer clear of that Perverted God and the Perverted Ginger.]

Huh? Why is Childe being referred to as a pervert now?

[Rin, while you were reviewing the quests, he couldn't take his eyes off you!]

At Lynx's comment, I looked up and caught Childe staring at me.

Rather than averting his gaze when caught, he smiled at me...

HE SMILED!!! Why did he smile at ME??!!!

"Childe," Zhongli interjected just in time.

Childe turned towards Zhongli and said, "Zhongli-sensei, don't you think Rin is quite adorable?"

His words stunned me, causing me to collapse under the table.

I winced in pain, and Lynx's worried voice sounded near my ear, "Rin, are you all right?"

"Yes... I'm... F-fine..." I managed to hold back the tears of pain.

Then, I felt a cool breeze on my knees; it was Lynx blowing on them.

*Hoo* *Hoo*

"Pain, pain, go away~" Lynx softly uttered.

Now it was his turn to comfort me...

"Feeling better, Rin?" Lynx's eyes sparkled, expecting praise.

My heart melted at the sight, and I embraced him, saying, "Yes, thank you, Lynx."

"Ehehe~" Lynx giggled.

As I hugged Lynx, he turned towards the two and smirked, continuing to hold me tightly.

"Eh~," Childe remarked, "Zhongli-sensei, is he trying to provoke us?"

Zhongli remained silent, but in his heart, he vowed to keep those two apart for as long as he lived...
