Everything was going great. Except it wasn't.
Barbara was following them in silence. It seed she was thinking about sothing.
Yomite was already expecting an attack from her side with a large knife straight into his back, knowing Yanderes.
After all, he did just kiss another girl on the lips right in front of her and he assud Barbara must have beco enranged after such an act of 'infidelity' and would now try to take vengeance for being ignored by either brutally stabbing him in his back, or by having his throat slit open when he least expected it.
Or chopping off his...manhood...to keep as a pet for herself, or turning him into one of those strange machines that required human sex organs to function. And he knew Yanderes were not afraid of anything or anyone, even if they appeared timid or weak most of the ti.
But so far...
Absolutely nothing was happening.
(Barbara is way too weird...I don't understand her at all...One ti she is cute like a shy maiden, or a puppy, but then she is bold enough to make my blood boil with lust and when she is alone, her stalker tendencies are activated...but at least she seems to be...softer than usual Yanderes...Thankfully...)
As soon as they stepped into the Lumine's room, they saw that the girls were still busy with the card ga.
The first to spot him was his adorable pet fairy, Paimon, who imdiately floated over, sticking to his left arm happily. "Ah! Paimon told you Good Tattoo would co back!"
His ethereal companion giggled excitedly.
"Hoh? Good Tattoo? Been a long ti since I heard that one. Usually it's just, Bad Tattoo or Womanizer or other interesting things."
"Ehehe~ Paimon is simply glad you've returned! You must have given that poo on a stick a nice beating he deserved!"
"Is that so? In that case, here is so Mora, you can buy so snacks with it later." He handed her a small pouch with about fifty thousand Mora inside.
"Nyehehe! Paimon can finally buy the Ultra Burger with this!" She cheered in delight and quickly snatched the pouch away.
(Paimon...the Ultra Burger is at least thrice your size...Good Luck...) Yomite smiled faintly, scratching the little fairy's cheek fondly.
"Party Leader...you made it safe and sound." Lumine murmured happily, almost shining radiantly at the sight of him.
Yomite gave her a small wave of greeting, and an unexpected pat on her head, ruffling her golden hair affectionately.
She felt it was far too tender, and oddly intimate, yet Lumine didn't seem bothered by it. Maybe it was just her.
And soon, his favorite loud girl also welcod him.
"Ah, if it isn't my beloved, one and only Assistant! So? How much did you get your butt kicked on the scale of recklessness and showing off~"
Hu Tao seed like she was nonchalant about him going to fight Childe, but deep down she was also worried because Childe had Trump cards which could prove to be a bit problematic even for her, even if she was confident in beating him.
But the mont she saw he returned safely, she had her usual cat-like grin plastered on her face as she threw herself onto him in a tight hug, making Yomite give a baffled look at her sudden display of affection.
"He was tough, but we are not done yet."
Once he let go, she rubbed her hands together in excitent, "So-So, how much money did we rob him of?"
With a laugh, he waved his hand dismissively. "Not that much, actually. Just enough to feed Iris for two weeks."
"That's a nice number!" She clapped her hands happily, earning a laugh from the rest of the party.
Iris also smiled softly, her gaze fixed on her Master, a rare show of happiness from her.
Childe was looking at Iris with the intention of eating her, Hu Tao teased the poor dragon, but she also added that her Master went to beat him up because of it.
Iris was moved by her Master's kind gesture and found herself beaming even wider.
He provided her with a place to stay, food, and he also beat up anyone that wanted to eat her!
Her Master was incredible!
Eventually, after everybody was comforted and reassured he was fine, they sat down on the beds to discuss, as everybody was seemingly interested in what happened with the fight and how he t the person who was currently sitting next to him.
The Deaconess Barbara, everyone but Iris was familiar with her.
Barbara looked along the party in unison, smiling politely, rubbing the back of her neck with her index finger idly. "Um, nice to et you."
As their match was interrupted, Yomite only ntioned so tidbits and the way Childe fought to make them understand his moveset, if they were to encounter him again.
All in all, his lips were sealed tight when it ca to Barbara and how her presence mysteriously moved from Mondstadt all the way to Liyue...
(I still have to applaud her determination to follow us through this hot weather...She is truly sothing else.) Yomite thought inwardly.
Just as he finished speaking, Lumine also explained what Childe told them.
Yomite wasn't there when Childe ntioned he knew about Lumine's brother and his wherebouts. The fact that Childe wanted Lumine to join the Fatui was...frankly, dumb.
Knowing what kind of people they were, Lumine wouldn't budge even if it...
...
..
.
(Wait...)
It took him a mont to process the information, but it finally dawned on him...
Lumine's whole reason for joining his party, was to find her brother and once she did, she would leave. That was an undeniable fact he shouldn't forget.
(Would she leave if...)
...
He had to admit he would be sad if she left, but he had no right to force soone to stay in the party.
Once she attained her goal, she was free to go and do whatever she wished. Even if that ant leaving the party behind altogether...leaving the world even...
But Fatui wasn't the place...
He wouldn't allow it.
