Inside of the Jade Chamber, a meeting was occurring to deal with the Osial threat.
Ninnguang, Charlie, Alastor and Sir Pentious were present, but there were also several other individuals.
One was a very tall, slender spider-like demon with dark grey skin and lime green eyes. He wore all-black clothing, with a pitch-black cloak that covered most of his body.
At the front of his cloak was a large black spider with lime green stripes on its eight legs, as well as lime green eyes and lime green on its back.
He also wore a distinctive big black top hat with a light grey patch at the front, along with a grey coloured skull and a lime green and red striped feather on the right side.
Then there was a tall and slender, light grey-skinned demon. She sported white ankle-length hair that had been formed in the shape of large horns by thin ribbons, with black streaks.
She had a darker-coloured area that appeared similar to a mask on her face, and her slanted-eyes had white irises and red sclera. The rest of her arms and hands were coloured white, with her hands being rather large in proportion to her body with black nails protruding from them.
She wore attire similar to a Liyuean ballerina and accessorized with a set of hooped black earrings along with her main clothing.
The last demon to be present was a very tall, slender-built demon with pale grey skin, and a wide mouth full of sharp light pink teeth, black-coloured lips and dusty-pink cheeks. Her eyes were pitch-black with no irises or pupils, and her hair was coloured in both a greyish-white and greyish-pink.
In terms of attire, she wore a large, pimped-out sun hat that was coloured in a pale shade of maroon, with two skulls that were coloured in a greyish-pink and red-pink, three dark burgundy flower-like decorations located at the brim, and a large plume which was black and pink-red respectively. In addition, her hat also included pink frilled-trim around it, along with black lining inside.
She wore a pale-maroon and pale-burgundy dress which included shoulder-pads, thin pale-maroon swirly-like stripes on the high black collar, black-trimming around the waist and on the long sleeves ruffled-cuffs, and three black stripes and black trim located on the hem.
« I thank you for your willing collaboration to deal with the Osial threat, ladies and gentlemen. » Ninnguang begun. « But I thought that Lady Morningstar had explicitly said that we should had attempted to deal with the issue without the "Nuclear Option". »
« You don't become hell's biggest arms dealer without arming yourself. » the horned demon replied. « And you won't be able to be free of Morax rule if you do not arm yourself properly. »
« Uhm…Miss Carmine? I was referring to Alastor when I mentioned the Nuclear Option…» Charlie replied.
« …I do suppose it makes sense. His methods ARE a bit…unorthodox…» Carmine replied.
« Oh, come now! What's a little dead mortals compared to have a bit of fun? » Alastor joked.
« That being said, whilst I, again, appreciate your support, I have conflicting thoughts about using the Jade Chamber as a battle station. » Ningguang continued.
« Well, the more guns, the merrier! » Sir Pentious replied. « And besides, they can be easily removed at the end of the battle. »
« They indeed are! I did it once myself. » Alastor added.
« With the help of your weapons and the Guizhong Ballista, we should be able to deal with the Osial threat, but better fortifications are needed to avoid unnecessary deaths. » Ninnguang continued.
« I mean, we could also use the people of Liyue as living meat shields! » Alastor proposed.
« NO. »
« Oh, come on, give good old Al a listen! » a voice came from outside the meeting room. « A few corpses would look good on our news…»
Coming from outside the room were two demons.
One was a tall and slim-figured, technology-themed demon who stood at approximately 7 feet. He sported a flat-screen television for a head, with the monitor projecting eyes with red sclera, small cyan pupils and different-coloured outlines - black for his right and cyan for his left. The screen also showed a mouth full of sharp, cyan-coloured teeth and a long pointed tongue.
He appeared to have dark navy-blue skin with sharp, cyan claw-like fingers.
He wore a navy-blue tuxedo with the jacket sporting coattails, red-trimmed cyan lapels, thin cyan stripes and cyan lining, worn over a red-and-black striped waistcoat which itself is worn over a collared bluish-white shirt with an upside-down broadcast symbol and a rather large, red bowtie. He also wore heeled dark grey dress shoes with cyan-coloured laces, toes, and tips on the heels.
He also wore a black top hat on his head, with red and blue designs reminiscent of a broadcast symbol and radio wave symbol, respectively. He had TV antennae that stuck out the top of the hat, the right one bent into a zigzag.
The other was a slim demon with cedar-brown skin, and long curly hair kept into pigtails with bangs by black hair ties. Her hair was coloured in a desire-red that featured the insides coloured in a dark navy-blue, and white swirled-streaks on her pigtails and one on her bangs.
Her eyes had white irises, red sclera and slit pupils, and her makeup consisted of burgundy eyeshadow on her eyelids, and black lipstick on her lips with a strip across the centre of her mouth, and fangs inside.
Her clothing was that of white skull-shaped earrings, and a sleeveless navy-blue coat with burgundy lining and two desire hearts on the left side of the fur collar. Her set of loose-pants were coloured in navy-blue and desire-red in a striped-pattern, held by a black belt with a white heart-shaped buckle.
For footwear, she wore heeled black shoes with white poms on the top. She accessorized with black-striped fingerless opera gloves with alternating colours - white for her right glove and desire for her left.
« Vox and Velvette, I presume? » Ningguang spoke.
« Man, not gonna lie girl, this place would make for a kickass photo set. How much for it? I can triple it. » Velvette asked in a smug tone.
« The Jade Chamber is not for sale. Especially not for fools that wouldn't know how to handle a business if it slapped them in the face. » Ningguang replied annoyed.
« Aw, did I struck a nerve? » Velvette mocked the woman. Before Ningguang could reply, she continued. « So sorry, most of the time I act so disrespectfully because I don't give a shit about any of you fossils. »
She then turned semi-serious. « But right now I'm acting so respectlessly because….uhm... how do I put this-»
« YOU LEFT VALENTINO TO ROT IN PRISON, YA SKANK! » Vox exclaimed angrily, slamming his fist on the meeting table.
« He had it coming. His contracts were turning my people into his slaves. » Ningguang replied.
« Not to mention everything he did to Angel! » Charlie added.
« No one gives a shit about that. Either you release him, or we'll unleash hell on Liyue! » Vox threatened Ningguang.
« Aw, you DO care! » Alastor replied in a smug tone.
« Of course we do! He's our only real friend! » Vox shot back.
« Aw, now I feel sad…» Velvette genuinely teared up a bit, Vox placing a hand on her shoulder.
« Aw, did we struck a nerve? » Ningguang mocked the girl.
« Bite me, Chairman Mao! » Velvette replied angrily.
« Thy threats are empty as thy entertainment here. » the spider demon spoke.
« Quite indeed! You may have an ounce of influence over Fontaine, but you'll find that your products aren't quite as "popular" here in Liyue. » the pale demon replied.
« How is Rosie the Style-less Hag even here? Isn't she a cannibal or some shit? » Velvette asked annoyed.
« As it turns out, Hilichurl meat taste quite better! » Rosie replied.
« None the less, since you're here, I might as well as be graceful enough to allow you to give us a hand, even thought I doubt you can bring anything on the table. » Ningguang said.
« Pff, fuck you commies. We're just here to get Valentino out of prison and get our asses back to Fontaine. » Vox replied angrily.
« He'll be released after he has paid for his crimes. » Ningguang replied.
« Look, he's basically immortal, he can wait a few decades. Now can you please leave? We're in the middle of something here. » Charlie asked annoyed.
« Hey! I may be the #Bitch, but even I care about that goofball! And now that your shitty god has decided to go to the nursing home, something that all you fucks should had done long ago, this Osial fuck is gonna sink this entire town to the bottom of the ocean! » Velvette replied annoyed.
« Morax has not abandoned us. This is merely a test. If we fail, he shall protect us none the less. Now could you please LEAVE? » Ninnguang asked exasperated.
« Only when you free Val! » Vox shot back.
Suddenly, however, Blitzo entered the room, before knocking on the wall to get everyone's attention. « Uh…guys? I know yer' in the middle of something'n all, but I think I saw Childe acting weird or some shit…»
« Wait, Childe? As in the producer of the Mr. Cyclops line of products?! I love those things! » Velvette exclaimed.
Everyone, except Vox, looked at her confused. « What? Not my fucking problem they are the greatest toys in the world! »
« Aren't you a bit too old for toys? » Alastor mocked the girl.
« To be fair, Mr. Cyclopses are perfect for all demographics! » Sir Pentious replied.
« And what is he doing exactly? » Ningguang asked.
« I think he had a funny looking piece of paper…» Blitzo replied.
Ninnguang widened their eyes in full panic at that response.
« HE WHAT!?»
Xxxxxxx
In a random spot not too far from the Jade Chamber, Childe summoned some pieces of paper with Chinese words written on them, whilst the Happy Troll Song played. « Well this ought bring the old god back from retirement. »
Everyone in the meeting got out at the speed of sound, as they watched from above the scene.
Suddenly, the once clean sky of Liyue turned into a massive storm, and from the ocean the figure of Osial, a massive hydra, could be seen.
« A TOY MAKER!? YOU MISTOOK THE 11th HARBINGER OF THE FATUI FOR A TOY MAKER!? » Ningguang shouted angrily.
« Well, he DID seem like a nice guy….» Charlie smiled nervously.
« That man is the kind of person who couldn't stop an organ smuggling marked that would profit the Tsaritsa, much less bring happiness to children! » Ninnguang replied angrily.
« Does that mean that we've been tricked, we've been backstabbed and, quite possibly, bamboozled? » Sir Pentious asked concerned.
« Oh, what do you think!? »
As the scene unfolded, Velvette took a selfie with the group. « I'm gonna call this #BingusesthatthoughtthataharbingerwasatoymakerLMAO! »
« Thy are also involved in the picture… » the spider demon noted.
« Gotta involve all the binguses for the picture to make sense… » Velvette replied, smiling but barely holding her tears, as the spider demon patter her shoulders, as she muttered « I thought he was fucking legit… »
Xxxxxxx
As Osial had been summoned, both the Liyueans and Demons work as hard as possible to man the battle stations.
On the Jade Chamber, the Imps, the Hazbin Hotel residents, the Overlords, the Liyueans and the Adepti were preparing for the incoming fight.
« Lady Ninnguang, Lady Ganyu, Lady Keqing, we have managed to evacuate a good chunk of the Liyuean population, but with this surprising appearance of Osial, the harbour itself is undergunned! » Carmine explained.
« Yeah, that's on me….shouldn't had dicked around those Mr. Cyclopses all that time…» Sir Pentious noted.
« Honestly, considering everything, you did one hell of a job, my friend. » Keqing replied.
She had fair skin, amethyst eyes with oval-shaped pupils backed by a shape resembling her stiletto, and waist-length purple hair that turned into silver-purple at the ends.
He hair was tied into waist-length twin-tails, topped by small odango-style buns resembling horns. There was also a small braid running along the side of her bangs.
She wore a pale lavender top with a high violet collar and ruffled dark blue skirt, layered under a deep violet overcoat, engraved with xiangyun and peacock motifs. The opening of her overcoat was marked by a golden ornament, with white flowers and purple and gold-accented feathers attached. The pattern of the feathers resembled the ones on the dangling backs of her detached long sleeves. In addition, she wore a golden hairpin, a pair of drop earrings, a tasseled choker, and dark gloves with lavender trim.
« Well at least you can tell your boys to focus only on Osial. Velvette and Vox broke Val out of fucking prison. » Angel commented annoyed.
« FUCK! » Ninnguang and Keqing exclaimed in unison.
« Well not that it matters, really. The Millelith can't even stand at attention without shaking. The force of an ancient god's presence seems to be too much for ordinary people to handle. » Keqing explained.
« Have you tried giving them a cutie kawaii sloppy head? » Blitzo proposed.
« This is no time for joking around! We must stop that monster before it gets any closer to Liyue Harbor! » Keqing cursed at the Imp. « Besides, this isn't Inazuma. »
« We must man the Jade Chamber right now! Our battle begins! » Ninnguang exclaimed, before turning to the Overlords. « As for you, I request for you to remain behind the frontlines. Unless strictly necessary, we'll try not to use the nuclear option. »
« Understood. »
« So be it, mine fair lady. »
« I wish you the best of luck, darling. »
« Well, if all things go bad, this will be quite the entertaining watch! » Alastor exclaimed.
« Oh, hush you, darling. » Rosie pinched the Radio Demon cheek, as the Overlords got out of the Jade Chamber.
« All right, gentlemen….LET THE FUCKING BEGIN! » Blitzo shouted, as he took a stance.
Everyone looked at him confused. « Uh…the fucking? As in, either he gets fucked or we get fucked? »
« …Yeah, that makes sense…»
Meanwhile, Sir Pentious activated several thrusters to reach Osial as soon as possible. Once in position, the battle begun.
« All weapons ready! FIRE! » Sir Pentious exclaimed, as several guns in the Jade Chamber, including the Guizhong Ballista, fired at Osial, with mixed results.
Sir Pentious laughed triumphantly. « Soon, the world will be rid of you and your kind! »
« Hell yeah! Fuck him up, daddy! » Angel exclaimed, with everyone cringing at the comment.
« SON! I HAVE YET TO BUY THE MILK! » Pentious exclaimed, causing Angel to cringe at the comment.
However, as he said that, several men boarded the Jade Chamber.
« Oh, for fuck sake, really Futas?! Can't ya see daddy Blitzo is a bit fucking busy right now!? » Blitzo cursed.
« How daring. Snezhnaya's diplomats will answer for this afterward. Every last one. » Ningguang laughed.
« If there are any left after this! REMEMBER THE TANNENBERG! » Moxxie exclaimed, as he begun to gun down several Fatui.
Soon, everyone joined the battle, gunning down several Fatui, with Charlie and Vaggie using their trident and spear respectively, Millie and Nifty slashing at them violently with their Pyro and Hydro blades, and Husk and Loona using their jaws and claws, alongside using several Electro and Hydro attacks.
« Keep it up fuckers! Don't let 'em access any of Pentious's holes! » Blitzo exclaimed.
« Not like they're gonna, like, pass or some shit! Have you forgotten about me? » Cerri Bomb exclaimed, as she threw several Pyro bombs at many Fatui.
« Honestly, with all the shit that is going on…kind of? » Moxxie replied, as he fired his tommy gun at a large Fatui.
In the meantime, Blitzo alternated pistols with knives, as he dived in a large group of Fatui, stabbing and shooting as he did, before tossing more out of the Jade Chamber with his Anemo powers.
Meanwhile, Angel alternated twin Tommy guns with baseball bats, as he bashed a Fatui head easily, before turning to see Charlie and Vaggie making short work of another group of Fatui with their Pyro and Geo attacks.
« So much about playin' "nice," are we now? » Angel smirked.
« Oh, come on, Angel! We're no angels! » Charlie smirked in response.
« Yeah…we're not… » Vaggie laughed nervously.
Elsewhere, Husk and Loona were mauling another group of Fatui, whilst also drowning and electrocuting them. « For fuck sake, these bloody Ruskies just keep on comin'! » Husk cursed, with Angel laughing at the comment. « Yeah, walked into that one…»
« I walked into that one too! » Nifty exclaimed.
As Husk raised an eyebrow confused, Nifty, with an incredibly creepy smile, pointed at a Fatui, his chest completely torn apart. « That's why the hole is there! »
« WHOHO! I LOVE KILLIN' RUSKIES! » Millie exclaimed.
« They're like Chilli Churros, but they actually put up a fight! » Blitzo exclaimed, as he blew the head of another Fatui with a shotgun.
Soon, the entire Fatui group had been dealt with.
« And then there was the Japanese tentacle monster! » Blitzo smirked. As the battle against the Fatui ensued, Sir Pentious had intensified the rate of fire against the monster with little effect.
« Tremble before the might of Sir Pentious, foolish pretender! » Sir Pentious exclaimed.
« Wait, why is he a pretender? » Loona raised an eyebrow confused.
« Only I am the snake lord! »
« That…makes too much sense…»
Suddenly, however, Osial charged an attack of his own, hitting the Jade Chamber. Whilst the structure had resisted the attack, it was badly damaged, and all the weaponry had been damaged.
« THE GUNS ARE DOWN! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!» Sir Pentious exclaimed dramatically.
« Without their covering fire, retaliation shall be difficult. » Cloud Retainer noted.
« I can fix them, but I need someone to distract the beast! » Sir Pentious explained, before turning to Cloud Retainer. « And you'll do nicely. »
« I beg you pardon? » she asked, before Sir Pentious injected her with a syringe. As she reacted to the injection, she fell off from the Jade Chamber, only to grow exponentially in size.
Osial widened his eyes in shock at the sight, as now Cloud Retainer had became gigantic.
« THAT'S RIGHT! I'VE HARNESSED THE POWER OF CRYSTAL METH! DIE, FOUL CREATURE! » Cloud Retainer shouted.
« Crystal meth? » Ganyu asked confused.
« Yeah, apparently crystal meth mixes with your adeptus energy to overload, thus turning you into giant Kaiju's. » Sir Pentious explained.
« So that's where my stache went! » Angel cursed angrily.
Meanwhile, Cloud Retainer had punched Osial right in one of his many heads, before the monster retaliated of his own, this time his attack being blocked by Cloud Retainer. As she attempted to counter the attack, she herself had been blocked, and what followed were a series of violent punches against one another, so fast they could barely be seen.
Suddenly, however, Osial charged up an attack with one of his heads, firing a blue laser at Cloud Retainer and hitting her at full speed, sending her flying back to the Jade Chamber, gravely injured at that.
« Cloud Retainer! » a concerned Ganyu raced towards her.
« I HAVE FAAAAAILED! » she screamed dramatically.
« But the guns are not ready! » Sir Pentious exclaimed.
« ….Then we have no other option….» Ningguang eyes darkened.
Everyone looked at her in fear as she said that. « Uh…are you sure? » Charlie asked concerned.
« Yes. It is the only way to save Liyue…» Ningguang replied.
As she said that, Blitzo played a comically small violin. « Very funny. »
« Do I look like I'm fucking around? Do you have any idea what you've caused? » Blitzo replied angrily.
« What will the sacrifice of the Jade Chamber do to your kind? » Ningguang asked.
« …Wait, that's what ya meant for no other choice? » a concerned Blitzo asked.
« What else could I-» Ningguang replied, before her face turned pale. « Ohhhhh nooooooo… »
On top of a large makeshift altar, Sir Pentious posed dramatically with a trombone.
« Let no joyful voice be heard! Let no man look up at the sky with hope! And let this day be cursed by we who ready to wake... THE NUCLEAR OPTION! » he shouted dramatically, before playing the trombone.
As he did that, a flash of grey charged at Osial, it being Carmine, who slashed at the god several times with a spear.
She caused several injuries on Osial, dodging attacks left and right with incredible speed. However, after a while, Osial managed to get a hold of her, and hit her at full speed, sending her flying against the Jade Chamber, greatly injured.
« Lady Carmine! » Ningguang raced towards her concerned.
« Fear not, I'll live through this…» Carmine replied.
« Not to act disrespectfully, but…I thought things were gonna get messier with the "Nuclear Option." » Keqing noted.
« Did somebody say "Nuclear Option?" » Alastor then appeared out of nowhere, everyone's face turning pale as he said that.
« Oh shit….» Ningguang uttered in fear.
« Oh, so this is the "Osial" fellow everyone has been talking about, ay? » Alastor smirked. « Well I assume it's because he has been weakened by the hard work of everyone here present, but he sure doesn't look like much! »
In response, Osial roared at the demon, before a tentacle grabbed his head. As he attempted to get rid of it, more tentacles grabbed the god, sinking him to the sea.
Meanwhile, Alastor smile had grown creeper, deer antlers had formed on his head, the whole air around him distorted, and a deep static sound played.
As the air became more and more distorted, Osial continued to sink to the bottom of the ocean, before ultimately nothing was left of him.
Everyone looked terrified at the now slightly calmer scene, especially the Adepti and the Liyueans, who were a stone throwaway from a heart attack.
Meanwhile, Alastor continued to smile creepily at the scene, before turning casually towards the group with a normal smile. « ...Well, I'm starved! Who wants some Jambalaya? My mother once showed me a wonderful recipe for Jambalaya. In fact, it nearly killed her! Hahaha! You could say the kick was right out of Hell! Ohoho, I'm on a roll! »
« I need a drink….» Ningguang replied in a tired and desperate tone.
« Of course you need it, my dear! We need to celebrate your rise as Liyue new overlord! » Alastor exclaimed. « Honestly, ruling over the Chinese masses isn't quite my style, and the rest of the Overlords find it more lucrative to just trade with your people! »
« That, and the fact that she is far more capable for the job. » Carmine added.
« Pfff… You two are totally fucking, aren't ya? » Cerri smirked, before Carmine smirked in response and Ninnguang blushed.
« Wait, what about Beizhou-» Ganyu pondered, before Alastor spoke once more.
« And something tells me that the Adeptus have little interest in the manner of governance, am I right folks? »
« You have fulfilled Rex Lapis request. We wash our hands with what happens next. » Cloud Retainer replied in full panic.
« With that out of the way, CONGRATULATIONS, LADY NINGGUANG! You are now officially Chairwoman Ninnguang! » Alastor exclaimed.
« I have a feeling this position might not be entirely earned…you people essentially carried this whole operation…» was Ninnguang response.
« Pfff… you totally had it girl. It's just that everything that we fight is almost entirely one shotted in less than 30 seconds… » Loona replied.
« Yeah, I mean this was easy, man! Was it also this simple to deal with Stormterror? » Angel asked the Imps.
« Surprisingly…. yeah. » Moxxie replied casually.
« Well then. If the issue with Osial has been dealt with…all that remains now is receiving Morax seal of approval. That and some serious therapy… » Keqing noted.
« Speaking of which, where the hell is Daddy Earth? Shouldn't he be here seeing us kicking Osial ass? » Blitzo noted.
« Let's go search for him. I don't know why but I have a bad feeling about this…. » Charlie commented.
Xxxxxxx
After a while, the demons had finally found Zhongli in Northland Bank, talking to Childe and Signora.
« Oh, hey! Here is daddy Morax! And look! The whore and the asshat are there too! What wondrous day! » Blitzo exclaimed, as he prepared a sniper rifle and pointed at the trio.
However, before he could pull the trigger, Zhongli trapped the whole group of demons in a rock cube. A muffled « Dafuck? » could be heard inside.
« You know, I'm almost disappointed that you didn't even bother to attempt to betray me, Morax. » Signora noted.
« Why would I wish to break a contract such as this? » Zhongli replied.
« Fair point. Now, if you would be so kind... The Gnosis, please. »
« The contract is fulfilled. That which thou seeketh is now bestowed unto thee, for my promise is solid as stone. » Zhongli replied, as he handed over the Gnosis.
« I can't believe you let me in the darkness through this whole affair! Granted, I sort of knew about your plan, but nothing about your deal with Signora! » Childe complained.
« You certainly played no small part in all of this... Wreaking havoc and turning the city upside down. The Lord of Geo ought to thank you for your performance, if anything. » Signora replied. « If you hadn't created the pressure of a battle between mortals, adepti, and a god, the lump of coal resting in the hands of the Geo Archon — Liyue — would never have been able to become a dazzling diamond of a city. »
« A fair explanation, yes. » Zhongli added.
« Well then, with the Gnosis in my possession, I have no use for such idle chatter. We should return to Zapolyarny Palace and seek an audience with Her Majesty, the Tsaritsa. Come, Childe. » Signora said.
« Ugh, fine... I'll meet you there later. I have something to deal with first. » Childe smirked.
And with that, the two Harbingers were gone.
However, as Zhongli turned around, he saw the demons looking at him pissed. Sir Pentious even punched Alastor mic so that the suffering of the innocents could be heard.
Zhongli simply sighed. « I suppose I owe you an explanation….»
« YEAH! WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT!? DID YOU JUST HAND YOUR FUCKING GNOSIS TO THE RUSKIES!? » Vaggie exclaimed angrily.
« Not for free, mind you. For thousands of years, I have made countless contracts. If the deal was of no benefit, then I certainly would not be inclined to agree to it. My agreement with the Cryo Archon will be the last of my contracts as the Geo Archon — my "contract to end all contracts." » Zhongli explained.
« Not that I fucking care, but I had that fucking shot! » Blitzo complained.
« I'm sure that in time another opportunity will show itself. Knowing you, you'll be traveling Teyvat considerably for your own "contracts." » Zhongli replied.
« Yeah, sure. Not fucking now, however. Once we've seen this shitty play or whatever, we're getting our ass back to Mondstadt! I had enough of communism for one lifetime. » was Blitzo response.
Xxxxxxx
After a long day of dealing with Osial, the demons returned to the Hotel to get their much deserved rest.
« Urgh, what a fucking day! » Angel stretched himself.
« Couldn't bloody phrase it better myself. » Husk added.
« Man, so that bitch from before was Signora? Man, why do I have the urge of just, like, putting a bomb under everything she holds dear or some shit? » Cherri asked.
« She's a cunt, that's why. » Blitzo replied.
«Oh! I have an idea for a bomb! Put lots of knives inside of it, so that they all strike Signora first! » Nifty proposed.
« Fuck yeah, girl! That's totally rad! » Cherri replied.
« Now, now, I know nobody seems to like her for some reason…. » Charlie tried to defuse the situation.
« Seriously, I kinda get the Imps, but why everyone else? » Vaggie asked.
« Venti's a chill guy, she didn't need to do him dirty like that…» was Loona response.
« At least he didn't bloody retire…. » Husk added.
« …Yeah, that's fair…»
« As I was saying…let's try not to channel our inner IRA for the moment and find a way to deal with the Fatui in a…different manner…except for life-or-death situations…. » Charlie continued.
« Still, I'm kinda worried, ya know? Now that the Fatui have all of our technologies and all that jizz…» Moxxie commented.
« Ha! You wish! Now that official collaborations with Childe are forever forbidden, and now that he has been kicked out of the Mr. Cyclops. Inc., he shall not have any sort of access to my shit! » Sir Pentious declared.
« Uhm…about that… » a voice came, belonging to one of Sir Pentious egg servants. « Several machineries of our in-site Mr. Cyclops production factory have been stolen….»
A short silence followed.
«…WHAT!? »
Xxxxxxx
Five minutes later, Childe and Scaramouche were driving several machineries, once belonging to Sir Pentious, far from Liyue, whilst carrying many other machines in the back of their vehicle.
As that happened, one of Sir Pentious tanks emerged out of nowhere, Vaggie coming out of one of the hatches and pointing a large gun at the two Harbingers, whilst screaming « RUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUSKIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! »
Unfortunately, the group was unable to strike at the duo, as they drove into the sunset, forever banned from the country of Liyue, punishment having to deal with the angry demons.
« I HATE this planet! » Sir Pentious hissed angrily.
