Archon of Infinity (Discontinued)

Chapter 5

Late update and expect more late updates now that 1.6 is here. I'm currently colonizing Hilichurl Islands and I just got a fucking Diluc on the Klee banner. I wanted A FUCKING PYRO CATALYST. THEY DIDN'T EVEN GIVE ME YANFEI LAST TIME. THEY GAVE ME A C6 DIONA. I DON'T EVEN USE CLAYMORES EXCEPT FOR EULA BECAUSE SHE ISN'T SLOW LIKE THE OTHER CLAYMORE CHARACTERS. I AM ANGRY. yeah thats all.

Y/N was standing in front of a ruin near Mt. Aozang where he heard from Ganyu that there was a group of Treasure Hoarders inside. When he was about to walk in, the Lumine and Paimon arrived.

"Oh, Y/N's also here!"'Paimon said

"Did Ganyu-san also tell you about this?" Y/N asked

"Yeah! We met her in the Adventurer's Guild and she told us about this." Paimon said

"I see. Let's go inside already if there's no need for explanation." Y/N said and Lumine nodded

They entered the ruins and saw some Treasure Hoarder things inside.

"There are signs of Treasure Hoarder activity here! They must've come to these ruins. Paimon sure hopes Ganyu's information are reliable." Paimon said

They went deeper inside a ruins and defeated a group of hilichurls inside. There were also traps where bubbles came out of it to stop them fron moving further. When they arrived at a certain place, they saw an upside down statue of the seven from Mondstadt with a purple orb glowing on it's hand and a motionless treasure hoarder, lying on the ground.

"Th-This looks like a person!" Paimon said

Y/N walked over to him and kicked his body.

"This is isn't a person." Y/N said

"How do you know?" Lumine asked

"It's a dead person." Y/N said

"A dead person?!" Paimon asked

"Anyways, seeing a statue of the seven here is strange..." Y/N said

"Wh-Why is the statue of the seven... hanging upside down...? And the statue's hand... Paimon remembers they are normally holding an orb, right? But this statue is holding... what is that?!" Paimon asked

"Uh... Paimon has a really bad feeling about this..." Paimon said

"The Grand Thief also hasn't moved an inch even after Y/N kicked him... Do you really think... he's dead?" Paimon asked

"He is. I am dead serious." Y/N said

Paimon got closer and there weren't signs of movement or breathing.

"He really is dead!" Paimon said

"Let's go, you two. We'll report back to Ganyu-san." Y/N said

Y/N, Lumine, and Paimon fled from the ruins and they arrived at a room where there was an Abyss Herald.

"You cannot spy on the secrets of the abyss, you have come here, you have seen our secrets. For this, you must pay the price. As a Herald, I will mete out your punishment." The Herald said

"An Abyss Herald?!" Paimon asked

"The one Dain spoke of." Lumine said

"Dain?" Y/N asked

"Dain... Dainsleif? Oh, I thought you were just a couple of pests that stumbled in here by mistake. So, you are with Dainsleif, that constant annoyance in our affairs." The Herald said

"Did he send you here to die? His resistance against the Abyss has gone nowhere for a long time. There is nothing you can do to change the tide. The Abyss... is unstoppable!" The Herald said
