Genshin Impact, Breezing Through Teyvat

She giggled playfully as she finished the last part of her speech.

Yomite sighed and nodded before checking a few quests they were listed on the notice board. Apparently, as expected, there were many of them that had been registered over the past week. These included single quests, long and dangerous ones with strong time requirements, or alternatively, harder and faster quests to challenge them once they reached a certain level. Some of the quests were quests to take pictures of local animals, some were to track down missing persons and get back those who wandered off. And a lot of them were to engage with more hazardous monsters.

Other than those missions, there were also exterminating bandits, gathering intel, hunting monsters, escorting, and order takeouts which he never tried before.

(Order Takeouts? Delivering food to customers within scheduled time...how is this a quest...This should be easy with Lumine\'s teleport.)

The questboard was almost full, since it was so hot outside, almost no one wished to do any of them and he could understand that sentiment.

(I would probably die if I had to fight monsters during this heat...Well, if the girls wanted to do some hunting then I would join them but still...)

They left the guild and Yomite immediately turned to Barbara, "Say, isn\'t this the same Katheryne as the one from Mondstadt?"

"Is it? I\'m sorry, I don\'t think I\'ve ever paid attention to women around me, but you seem to be very proficient at it." Barbara smirked as she responded.

"Ahahah..." Yomite\'s nervous laughter echoed softly through the street.

As they were heading towards the Inn, Yomite could hear a weird sound saying "...Error..." in the distance, coming from the Adventurer\'s guild behind them.

"..."

(I swear if that Katheryne isn\'t a mass reproduced robot, then I\'ll eat my own liver!)

In any case, there wasn\'t any point in thinking about Katheryne right now. There was a bigger issue at hand, and that issue was Barbara...

Despite Yomite having questions regarding Barbara, he refrained from asking anything at all; he understood that this Yandere obsession subject wasn\'t open for discussion with the person herself...Or else he might find himself waking up without balls one day, screaming at the top of his lungs, which wouldn\'t be pretty...

He figured she would elaborate about herself later on in due time if she wanted to take next steps in their future \'relationship\'...they could even go with that approach.

(Hopefully...A life with another girl like that would not be bad at all...She is cute after all, and seems like she would make a really great girlfriend, as she seems like the type to fully devote herself to someone she loves, but currently, I am more than happy with what I have...and having a weird psychopathic girlfriend would make me unable to sleep at night...What if she hurt me, or worse, my other girls somehow...)

The risk was too great to accept...not only for his sake, but also for theirs...He just hoped that Barbara wouldn\'t do anything rash once she met them...

By the time they reached the Inn, they were finally ready to throw themselves on the mercy of the establishment\'s cool air, though the massive intake of sudden cold ensured that they could actually sweat their asses off inside the room, never venturing outside except when necessary.

(Honestly...fuck the dailies...I am sorry, but I am not fighting monsters in this heat...The money is not worth it, I got plenty from that Childe guy...Come to think of it...Childe managed to find such a nice cool place for a battle...but this heat is way too much for me to not laze in my bed from morning to night...No wonder he wanted me to follow him and even paid me for it, fuck the sun.)

The wind whined above them as Yomite shut the door behind them, closing the world from their sight. Silence fell between them, the sound of the heavy breathing, reverberating in the enclosure of the building.

"So, as you might know, I have five party members who are currently staying at this Inn. We have two rooms and one of them has an empty bed, so if you want, you can sleep there. You won\'t need to pay anything either."

Barbara hummed thoughtfully while taking in Yomite\'s information. "Yum-Yum, I can\'t let you pay for my expenses. It\'s not fair." She said. "I have enough money, don\'t worry about me."

Yomite took a deep breath after hearing his nickname, "Are you sure? I don\'t mind if you didn\'t pay, I already got the room anyway as it wasn\'t so expensive."

Barbara gave him a broad smile. The intent of her warm gaze was to reach his core where his feelings would bloom for her, but after hearing what she said about him earlier today, Yomite was currently the furthest away from falling for her...

"You\'re sweet, I appreciate it. But, don\'t worry about me, Yum-Yum, my family is very well off, it\'s not a problem. Here\'s the money."

With these words, she handed him a bag of Mora, and lightly patted his cheek with her free hand, leaving him stunned for a moment. It felt more affectionate than he was expecting at least.

"Alright. If that\'s what you wish fo—" Yomite cut himself off and paused.

Their discussion was interrupted by a slight commotion, a set of footsteps was audibly running down the stairs and coming closer towards the entrance.
