In the Abyss

"Your Highness!," A voice called out trying to get the attention of the young blonde lady who was just staring out of her window as she hasn't even noticed her guards calling her.

"What is it, Lector?" She asked not liking how he disturb her but she also knows that Lector won't do such a thing without any reason.

"According to the report, Your brother just left Inazuma and was already in contact with the Liyue, and...

"And?" She raised an eyebrow.

"It seems that the Inazuma was experiencing great changes and your brother has great ties with them. In case he is in danger, Inazuma won't hesitate to help him. That means, our plan for him and the Liyue won't work." The Abyss Lector reported.

Lumine the Abyssal princess smiled, "Abandon the plan, it seems Aether has already built his influence on Inazuma," Lumine was planning to make a misunderstanding between the Liyue, Inazuma, and his brother.

The plan is simple, manipulate the three-nation into betraying the Traveler. In that way, Aether will be aware of how cruel the Gods are and that this peace was all made up and just a lie. Lumine would expect him to Join abyss soon if this plan succeed, but it seems that the plan was no longer needed.

Little did Lumine know, Aether was already making his preparation for the upcoming fight that will happen soon.

"There is also the other report referring to the fight between the Shogunate and the resistance"

"And what about it?"

"According to our spies, a girl named Kamisato Ayaka has an unusual power within her. It seems like her power was not like a vision but rather something else. The spy told us that she has the same technique as the Cryo Archon," The Lector stated.

"Was she still alive?" Lumine asked.

"Yes, she is well and alive, wait...Your Highness?" The Abyss head mage wondered and an evil smile formed on her face.

"Capture her...we will make her our pawn," She ordered but the Abyss soldiers behind the lector shivered. "What?" She glared.

"It seems your brother and the daughter of Kamisato Household have some kind of relationship so I'm afraid that if we abduct her, your brother will rush to us on the spot, After all, Your brother's power was on par with an Adepti," The Lector stated.

Lumine's eyes sparkled joyfully instead of getting furious at the fact that her subject was showing fear to a woman. "Your highness?" She knocks out of her trance and stops her wild imagination. "Forget my order. I'm here to destroy Celestia not to destroy my brother's relationship,"

"For now, watch my brother's movement. You must tell me everything that you will see," She ordered and they all bowed and gladly accept.

Liyue

"What the hell, Traveler! First, you mine such expensive ore, second, you hunt every ruined hunter and guard all around the Liyue. I'm impressed and glad about that and it makes Millelith's job easier, third, you cut down trees with adeptal energy, and now you sneak into Liyue's library to steal an alchemy book in front of me!" Keqing shouted. In the past two weeks, Aether and Paimon did a lot of illegal deeds.

"Hey, hey calm down," Paimon sweatdropped at the angry girl.

"I'm tired of this, I'm going to arrest you!" She shouted.

"Hey. did you forget our contract?" The traveler's smirk and Keqing formed a very tick mark as a sign that she was mad.

"That's right! You and the Traveler fought and you lost! as the loser, you need to avoid telling others about the Traveler's wrongdoing!" Paimon shouted as she witnessed the two fight as the contract says. The loser must follow the winner.

"NO! This is outrageous! I don't care if you are this Nations's Hero, I'm going to arrest you!" Keqing jumped at him but the Traveler dodged. The girl keeps attacking him but nothing ever happens. She couldn't even touch him, no matter how fast she was.

"When will she admit her defeat?" Paimon sighed.

"Hey, Boss thunder lady, I guess you are not aware that you will also tarnish your name as one of the Qixing for helping the Traveler steal and do illegal things if you arrest him," Paimon said as she stopped and glared at the two.

She was gritting her teeth as she didn't expect that she would lose to the Traveler in their fight and force her bind to the contract between them. "In short...you're my lackey," Aether said with an evil smile.

"Fuck you!" She shouted as she was forced to follow them. Little did he know, Ningguang was all aware of what the Traveler, Paimon, and Keqing did. Still, she hasn't made a move but instead covers for the thing he stole by paying.

In the Jade Palace. Ningguang was reading the reports of an unknown person stealing books in the library. It stated that the suspect wanted to buy it but the owner declined so they decided to steal it instead.

She also read a report about the Ruin hunters and guards that have been brought down with all of their cores missing. Added to that were the stolen Ruin cores and hunk all over the Liyue shops.

A report about the dead whopper flowers all around the Nation has also spread and all of their energy nectar has been squeezed to the very last drop. "Illegal Mining, Illegal killing, Illegal cutting down trees, stealing,...what the hell are these three doing?" Ninguang wondered staring at the photo of the trio doing stupid things.

"I'm surprised Keqing is allowing such a thing...even if it's a contract," She thought as she recalled the time when Keqing told her that she lost to the traveler and she is now forced to join him in his travels. "So this is what she means, eh, poor girl,"

"Ganyu," She called as the half Qilin revealed herself.

"Go and drag the Traveler here," She ordered and the girl nodded.

"I wonder where he needs those things. The report stated that he didn't sell them anywhere," She thought as she was surprised at the number of things they illegally earned.

Core Lapiz: 1,348 worth 2,022,000 Mora

Nautilus Jade: 1,493 worth of 1,791,600

Crystal ore: 3,345 worth 3,010,500

Ruin Cores: 2,350 worth 1,175,000

Alchemy books: 37 worth 333,000

and many more if this goes on. "I'm sorry Traveler, but if this goes on, I'm afraid that my Mora will run out," She thought as all this time, The Tainquan covered a total of 5,245,758 Mora to pay for all the things the Traveler and Keqing steal on the Liyue shops.

she didn't need to pay for the things they obtained illegally, but she need to cover what they stole and which was worth 5 million Mora. 'I hope Ganyu can bring him soon," she sighed.
