Genshin Impact, Breezing Through Teyvat

"It is as I said before! My wisdom is unattainable! To think this Director guessed correctly! Ah, I think that luck retuned to me! I might start a new business soon!"

"Yum-Yum..? Was that perhaps true? That you're from a different world?"

Lumine gave an awkward smile, "It is as you say, we're both not from this world, but the two of us are from a different place than the other."

'Why would she just confirm it...come on Lumine...agh whatever...' Yomite mentally facepalmed.

"..."

"Ooga booga...?"

"""..."""

"Okay! Okay! This isn't a big deal... Ah you know...fuck you, Monika in dirty clothes... I planned to...you know...find a good place and time to talk about this to my party and have a deep understanding discussion between us, but you ruined it completely..."

"...Oh, so you haven't told them yet...? Well, that's a bit awkward..." She murmured after a brief period of silence, before she realized he greatly offended her, "Hey! What did you just call me again!?"

Yomite ignored her and sighed in defeat, "So yeah...I am not from this world. I do not wish to talk about how I got here, or what happened, but do take note of me, not being a local in this place. That was why I often asked everyone around me questions to know if this world was different from mine and it turned out it was. It was very different and I am still sometimes surprised at some absurd laws."

He explained while rubbing his temple, trying to calm himself down.

A moment of silence passed and Mona could feel herself feeling guilty for bringing up such a subject and revealing the truth once more.

Yomite seemed pretty distressed about his secret being revealed, which made her wonder if maybe she shouldn't've brought up any of these things at all.

"I'm sorry. It's my fault..." Mona muttered.

Yomite raised his eyebrows in surprise, he hadn't expected her to feel like that considering how rude she was to him when they met...but it wasn't too strange since people tended to get aggressive over certain things.

"It was my fault that I exposed your secret to begin with..." She added while looking away. "I hadn't considered you kept it to yourself. I'm sorry."

It seemed that Mona truly believed she had caused all of this mess and accepted her own fault, which meant she was a good person at heart.

"Ah well...it's fine. I planned on telling them one day, it's just that it was too rushed for me and I'm not really prepared..." Yomite replied, "Either way, here it is, the truth."

He looked at each of the girls from his party, waiting for their response.

To his surprise, none of them were angry he witheld information from them.

Instead, they seemed interested in learning everything about him.

"How is it like in there?"

"Paimon is curious, is there different kinds of sweets than here? How many sweets are there?"

"Do you have your own Archons you pray to? Or are there no Archons at all?"

"How expensive are the coffins in your world? They better be cheap!"

"Master, is there a place where you can simply fall asleep and never leave your room?"

"..."

Yomite was caught off guard by their dumb questions, but decided to humor them anyway.

"It's a huge world with multiple countries that pretty much worships thousands of gods with a few of them being main ones, such as, Jesus, Zeus, Ganesha, Allah and so on. There is more sweets than you could ever hope to eat and I don't know the prices of coffins, but I assume they are hella expensive considering I knew a few people who had to sell a few of their belongings just to get one, because they couldn't afford it, so who knows really...As for the lonely place...that's basically owning a house...if you chose to do so, you can end up all alone and never venture outside unless you need food, you can do the same thing in my mansion, Iris and I'm pretty sure you've been doing that up till now..." He finished with a shrug.

"Thousands of Archons..." Barbara seemed troubled, "How many people are there to pray to all of those Archons...that is simply unbelievable..."

"More sweets Paimon could ever eat...Paimon is already drooling"

"No need to move from bed..." Iris almost flipped at the thought of not leaving a house. She was a true hikikomori to the bone that wished nothing but to stay in the house and do nothing all day but lay down and eat food.

Lumine was more than intrigued, "So interesting...please tell us more about your special place later, I shall tell you about mine as well."

"Why are the coffins so expensive? Isn't it the priority to make sure the people that passsed get to be sent off peacefully with the lowest price possible to make sure their relatives don't have to spend much money on them as they've already suffered a great loss? I am a bit angry at that..." Hu Tao commented while frowning slightly.

While she often joked and threw around sales for people to gain interest in the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor business, she would never overprice her customers. She was too kind to even suggest something like that, and it made her mad when Yomite mentioned the poor people who are grieving are forced to pay unreasonable sums for coffins just to part with their loved ones.

She hated it more than anything else.
