Chương 1: The Sixth Harbinger
I had been working as the sixth harbinger for a few months now and during my time I had grown to deal with most of the harbingers, Tartaglia especially. There was one Harbinger I hated, one I couldn't ever get along with. So imagine my displeasure when The Tsaritsa told the harbingers Noctis and The Knave will be working on a mission together In Mondstdadt.
After the meeting I met up with Tartaglia or childe and we talked for a while about normal things until the topic of my next mission came up...
"So you're next mission is with The Knave huh, you excited" childe spoke in a teasing manner knowing I never got along with her.
"Come on man you know we were never able to get along" I responded slightly annoyed being reminded about my mission with her which would take place a month from now.
"Exactly the reason I teased you for it, comrade" he answered back in his usual light tone and annoying smile.
"I wonder why The Tsaritsa paired me with someone I obviously don't get along with" I spoke mostly to myself in a rhetorical manner but childe had to answer my question with his theory.
"Maybe that's exactly why she paired you two up" his answer just made me confused more than anything.
"why would she do that, you look as if you have some sort of stupid theory." He just laughed in response and began to talk.
"how perceptive of you, comrade. My theory is that The Tsaritsa paired you with The Knave so you two could get along with each other on this mission." I just stare at him as if he is some kind of idiot.
"Why would she do that?" he just stared before responding
"Well I don't know" 'he's so incredibly useful ' £ think to my self.
"I'm going to my room I can't deal with you right now" I say exhaustion visible in my voice
"ok then comrade, I will see you later" Childe beams enthusiastic as ever.
I leave childe in the room we were chatting in and walk down the large hall to my room, as I am walking I feel a presence watching me from the shadows, I sigh in my mind wandering why I can't get a break as I knew who it was already.
Coming out from the shadows was a women with snow-white hair with occasional black-streak, her clothing was quite luxurious and she had a pyro vision glowing slightly on the back of her neck.
"Arlecchino" I say in an apathetic tone, this women was none over than The Knave no doubt her to remind me about the mission.
"If you're here to inform me about our mission your wasting your time I was at the meeting to" I spoke not wanting to show any emotion in front of the person I disliked so much.
"Good, I hope we can set aside our differences for the sake of The Tsaritsa" her voice carried Authority and dominance, these aspects were boosted by her eyes which gleamed, the red cross glowing in the dark hall, as if she was superior than everyone her gaze bore through my soul.
She spoke about 'For the sake of The Tsaritsa' but even childe told me she would betray The Tsaritsa in a heart beat if it meant better conditions for her.
"I hope so to" I spoke after a long silence, not breaking eye contact even once, after I had finished speaking she had disappeared leaving no trace that she was ever here.
I sighed mentally and returned to walking towards my room, eventually I reached my rooms door, when I opened it I saw my room which was quite simple with a bed, sofa and other such things you would have in a room but what drew my attention most was a note of the table.
No one should've been able to get in her so obviously I go towards the note and pick it up to begin reading the contents.
I found out the note was from the Tsaritsa and it mentioned things about how I needed to learn to bond with Arlecchino, How the fuck was Childe right.
Not wanting to ponder it any longer I place the note on the table and walk to my bed, I climb into my bed and fall asleep nearly instantly...
The next day I was awoken by a loud and repeating bang on my door. it was driving me crazy and I could no longer ignore it as it seemed the person, most likely childe, had no intention of giving up.
"Alright stop banging the shit out of my door" I shouted as I got up and stretched, I heard immature laughing from the other side of my door as I realised what I said.
"Oh for fucks sake grow up" I said while working to the door.
I opened the door unsurprisingly revealing Childe who had his hand over his mouth trying to hold in a laugh.
"Really?" I said bored of his shit
"Y-yo-you told me to stop banging your door!" he practically shouted and then burst into a fit of laughs, all I could do was watch him as if he was an idiot and wait for him to calm down.
"Are you done?" I said as I crossed my arms
"aah yes I am done" he said as he took a relaxing breath.
"Well,l what did you want?"
"uhm well to be honest I can't remember" he spoke while rubbing the back of his head.
"Are you serious"
"Maybe..." I slam the door in his face
"Wait! Don't leave me!" I hear scratching on my door similar to that of a cat which wishes to enter a room.
"Ugh... Fine, what do you want" I groan as I once again open the door.
"I remembered what I was here to tell you"
"oh well spit it out" I seemed quite irritated, and I was mainly because I was woken up too damn early.
"Well I was wondering if you wanted to fight me, comrade" I slam the door in his face. I'm forced to open it again because he won't stop begging, however.
"I'm not fighting you childe" my voice is monotonous and still have aspects of tiredness.
"B-but why?" he says while trying to sway me with puppy dog eyes and fake tears.
"Childe ever since I became a harbinger you've asked me this at least 3 times a day. I need to save energy for my mission with Arlecchino. *I say while rubbing my forehead to soothe a headache.
"ugh, fine no fight. You say you want to rest and save energy, why not come to Liyue with me. I will introduce you to Mr. Zhongli." He said his fake begging face completely changed to a normal expression.
"Fine, I do still have a month until my mission with Arlecchino."
"Great! Comrade, get dressed and pack a bag we leave immediately." Childe shouted out his voice full of enthusiasm and energy, two things I lacked in the morning.
"Seriously..." I blinked slowly as I continued to state at his stupid grin.
"Seriously!" he repeated back to me causing me to let out a string of curses as I shot my door to prepare.
In my room I put on a simple but comfortable outfit, the outfit was mostly black, I wore a white t-shirt covered by a black jumper with sleeves thst were to long for my arms, but that's how I prefer it anyway, for trousers I wore some simple black jogging bottoms. I didn't care if the harbingers had to look presentable if I was traveling all the way to Liyue, with childe aswell, I was gonna be damn comfy.
I then began to pack my bag with clothing similar to what I am wearing now as I didnt think it would be good for someone to be walking around in a luxury outfit that just shouts fatui. Once I finished packing I put on some clean white shoes.
Before leaving my room I looked in the mirror and saw my hair had gotten quite long, it was ice-white and went down to my lower back. I also admired my own eyes for a second they were a perfect hue of amethyst-purple.
I exit my room and see that Childe is still waiting leaving his back on the wall of the hall, upon seeing me walk out he gave me a smirk.
"you look like a femboy" his smirk was eye-to-eye as he teased my feminine appearance
"Well, fuck you to!" I had a always been mistaken as girl when I was younger and even now I still get mistaken, I guess its to do with my skin and face shape, my purple eyes definitely don't help my case.
"I'm just playing with you, Noctis. I am being for real when I say this though, if you keep wearing clothes like these people are gonna think your emo."
He paused for a second before continuing as if contemplating whether he should go through with his next sentence.
"then you will be an emo femboy, all you gotta do is dye your hair black" he laughed deviously as he finished his sentence.
"I swear to The Tsaritsa, I will kill you." I started him in the eyes, releasing my killing intent but it had no effect on his joking personality.
"Hooray, then I can fight back." His annoying smell didn't leave his face at all not even for a second. For fucks sake does nothing work against him...
He continued to state at me waiting for me to speak but I just stayed silent before sighing and then speaking.
"hmph, when do we leave."
