Delusion

In the center of the capital city of country Z was the Griffin Palace, the official residence of the President of Country Z, who was President Dukakis currently. And at this moment, the blond handsome president was having a private meeting with an important tycoon in the country, Mr. Karasu, who also headed a powerful faction in this country.

No one knew what they had been talking, but by the time Mr. Karasu came out of the office, his face was gloomy.

"Hammer!" he turned around and called his valet.

"Yes, Master!" replied the man named Hammer, who had a big and bulky body.

"When will 'they' give us the good?"

"Master, 'they' will give us the good tonight!"

"Just make sure that there won't be any mistake. I want the good to be delivered to my hands tomorrow morning" said Mr. Karasu.

"Yes, Master!" Hammer replied.

Across the street, an old lady was sitting in a tea shop and was enjoying her tea. But different of her exterior, she was thinking about a serious matter.

(I can't believe that someone brought back those cursed things! But well, I will let the young man handle this.)

3 of today's commissions were no difficult for Alexy, they were just daily helping his mother and friends. However, the 4th commission involved fighting.

<<Blasphemous Invention>>

<<Someone had successfully re-created Delusion and are preparing to make a transaction with an evil faction. As the person chosen by the supreme deity of Teyvat, you must prevent this.>>

<<Rewards: 10 primogems, 70 EXP, 50 friendship EXP>>

"Huh, Paimon, what's Delusion?" Alexy asked.

"Delusion, or Evil Eye, is the evil counterpart of Vision. As Visions are granted by the gods, so Delusion is considered a blasphemous invention." replied Paimon.

"Ugh, this quest will involve fighting, I doubt that the site will stand firm after the fight!" said Alexy, remembering Klee and her destructive power.

"E-he-he!" Paimon could only agree.

===

At night, Alexy once again left home, wearing black suit and a black face mask.

"Ugh, if I'm gonna be a hero at night, the system should at least give me a decent mask." Alexy complained with Paimon.

"Uh, 'He' is the one who created the reward system, so Paimon can't help with that." Paimon replied while holding her head.

"Paimon, you are so useless. Sometimes, I think it's better to cook you up."

"Hey, Paimon is not emer. . ."

"Huh, Paimon, why did you stop?"

But Alexy received no answer from Paimon.

"These food taste so bad!" said Aether, without changing his tone.

"I'm sorry, Your Highness. I will make you another dish!" said a Hydro Abyss Mage, while reaching his hands out to take away the dish that Aether had criticized.

However, a water bubble appeared from the ground and trapped him.

"Please...forgive me...Your Highness..."

Without saying anything, Aether breathed, Cryo element came out from his nose and mouth, immediately froze the Abyss Mage, turning him into an ice ball.

"Isn't it too cruel. He just put too much salt." said Lumine after putting her chopsticks down.

"Isn't putting him into Electro Abyss and have him electrocuted crueller?" asked Aether, knowing full-well his sister's usual punishment for displeasing her.

"But he still lives, right?" said Lumine, smiling.

"Your Highnesses!" said a Hydro Abyss Herald, who knelt down on one knee before the two.

"What is it? Don't you see we are eating?" Aether said.

"I'm sorry. But I have an important report."

"Say it!" Aether ordered.

"We are sure that those that you are searching had been transported to Galaxy SBNBUK67M37Z by an unknown method to us."

"Then what are you waiting for? Go to that galaxy!" Lumine ordered.

"Yes, Your Highnesses!" the Hydro Abyss Herald stood up and and went backward.

"Remember, leave no stone unturned!" said Aether.

"Yes, Your Highnesses. Your wise word had been engraved to my mind!"

After the Hydro Abyss Herald left, Aether turned to Lumine and said:

"I remember in Galaxy GOOSEBUMP15423, Planet ABX125, there is a game where you use an ice ball. It is played like volleyball. However, breaking the hard ice ball grant you double point."

Aether then looked at the ice ball in front of them.

"OK, let's play!" said Lumine, smiling at her brother.

"Here's your payment!" Alexy gave the money to the taxi driver.

"Thank you, kind sir. . .Sir, I must remind you that the port is very dangerous at night."

"I know. I come here because of some business." answered Alexy.

The driver drove away, thinking that a mafia member was on his car just now. Trying to dismiss the thought of what the driver might think of him, Alexy walked deep into the port.

"Hey, who are you? Which family do you belong?"

Alexy turned around and saw three men, all sitting on their big motorcycles and had tomahawk hairstyle.

"Uh, I work here in the morning, and I forgot something important. I came to take it back." said Alexy.

"Do you take us for a fool?" one of them roared. They all got off their motorcycles and walked towards Alexy.

"Uh...wait...wait...wait...I have this for you guys, please let me pass!" said Alexy, before taking out a small box and threw it to them.

"What is this? Bribery?" said one of them, before opening the box.

BOOM

"How dare you?! We will kill you!" said all three in unison while helping each other standing up.

Alexy shook his head and pointed to the motorcycles behind them, on which there are so much fire.

"Oh no!" said one of them.

Alexy turned around and ran to the purple point on the map, ignoring the three of them.

BOOM

Hearing the noise, many ran to the place, but Alexy had left.

<<Klee is summoned>>

"Thank you for your bomb, Klee!" said Alexy.

"The bad guys was all blown up!" said Klee happily.

(Later, if I make you angry, please don't blow me up!) thought Alexy.

"But they are not the main bad guys we are going to fight, who are in that warehouse!"

"Ah oh, let's eavesdrop what they are saying. That's what Kaeya taught Klee." said Klee before going to the door of the warehouse.

(Kaeya...probably one of the characters in the system then.) Alexy thought and then going to Klee's side to eavesdrop.

"Did you bring the good?" Hammer said with a loud voice.

"You don't need to shout like that. Of course, we bring the good!" said a man wearing black hood, looking very suspicious. Beside him are two other men that dressed like he did.

The man in black showed Hammer a suitcase and opened it in front of him. Inside is a glove with a purple crystal orb.

"Are you sure this is powerful?" asked Hammer.

"Of course!" said the man in black.

"Then I'll try it on them first!" said Hammer, turning his head to the door.

"Crap, he noticed us!" said Alexy.

Hammer grabbed the glove from the suitcase and wore it on. A big suit with glowing purple color appeared on him. A hat with similar design appeared on his head, and a hammer in his hand.

"This is cool!" Hammer smirked.

"That's a Fatui Skirmisher, an Electrohammer Vanguard to be precise." said Paimon.

"Thank you for the info, Paimon!"

"Hai!" Klee threw bombs at Hammer.

BOOM BOOM

"Your bombs are annoying, brat!" said Hammer after receiving some damages. Suddenly, he roared and purple energy surrounded him.

"That's a shield!" said Paimon.

"Hai...ya!" Klee continued to throw bombs but nothing affected him.

"Klee, dodge!" Alexy shouted.

And Klee dodged the hammer in time. However, Hammer did another swing and it sent her flying to the cargo nearby. Fortunately, inside the cargo were soft pillows, so Klee was only wounded from the hammer swing.

"It's your turn, brat!"

Alexy turned around and saw the Electrohammer Vanguard already stood in front of him.
