Archon of Infinity (Discontinued)

Chapter 6

"Y-Y-Yes..." Y/N replied while trembling from fear

Y/N visited Beidou because he was about to leave and head to Inazuma in a few days. Currently, Beidou and the Crux Fleet were on Guyun Stone Forest because they were on a supply run.

"Lumine is right... I need to go to Inazuma..." Y/N said

Y/N arrived at Guyun Stone Forest and he saw Beidou and a boy with white hair watching Lumine fight someone.

Y/N appeared next to Beidou, surprising her.

"Oh, Y/N! You're here!" Beidou laughed

"What's going on here?" Y/N asked

"You see, the mighty traveler agreed to participate in the clash just to get a ride to Inazuma!" Beidou said

"Oh..." Y/N said

"You must be Y/N. I've heard about you from Captain Beidou. I'm Kaedehara Kazuha" The boy said

("My mama. Only mine." Y/N growled at Kazuha while clinging on to Beidou)

"I'm Y/N. I'm from Inazuma. I don't know anything else about me." Y/N said

"Oh, you're from Inazuma too..." Kazuha said

"Yeah, but I never experienced the vision hunt decree." Y/N said

"Y/N's a runaway from Inazuma. I met him while I was on an expedition. What a silly kid Y/N was. He was floating in the ocean while hanging onto a wooden plank!" Beidou laughed

"Is that so?" Kazuha said

"Yeah, but I'm returning to Inazuma now. I'm going to confront the Electro Archon myself." Y/N said

"W-What? You can't and you shouldn't." Kazuha said

"Why? I'm strong. Really, really, really, really strong." Y/N said

"It's most likely I will be able to withstand Divine Punishment. But it doesn't mean I won't have a hard time with the Electro Archon. She's literally a god." Y/N said

"Well, Y/N easily defeated a Harbinger and a- Wait a minute! Osial is a God too!" Paimon said

"Osial is weak. Morax too." Y/N smiled

"Eh?" All of them were dumbfounded

"To think they were killed by some humans." Y/N said

"Well, it's called favoritism. I only said they're weak and the Electro Archon strong because I'm a devout follower of the Electro Archon before. Even more than my family... they don't want to be one of her people just because of an old family rule. But when the vision hunt decree happened, I feel lost whether I still worship the Electro Archon, but I know there's something behind the vision hunt decree. I am going to defeat her to stop the vision hunt decree." Y/N said

"Y/N..." Lumine said

"Anyways, I have to go back now. I just heard the Crux was here and I still have things to do." Y/N said

Y/N finished packing a few of his things a few days ago and today, he's riding Beidou's ship with Lumine and Paimon to travel back to Inazuma.

Y/N, Lumine, and Paimon along with Beidou and her crew sailed across the storms in the sea and they finally arrived in a harbor in Inazuma. They jumped off the ship where they saw a man with horns.

The man noticed Y/N and the others and immediately ran to them.

"Ahoy, there!"

"So, you finally made it. You sure kept me waiting, Captain. And it appears we have a couple of stowaways... or perhaps I should say, honored guests."

"Hey! Shush!" Paimon shouted

"You can blame your Almighty Shogun. The tempests around Inazuma have been growing stronger. Though the fleet was fully up for the challenge, the inclement whether still caused us some delays." Beidou said

"Let em introduce everyone. This is Thoma, a trade partner that I've gotten to know recently."

"Heh, you don't know how long I've been waiting to see you." Thoma said

"Thoma, these three are-" Beidou was cut off

"No need for introductions, their reputation precedes them. Seems even the stormy seas can't keep rumors of these outlanders' sterling deeds away." Thoma said

"Nice to meet you, Thoma." Lumine said

"... His face reminds me of someone annoying-" Y/N was smacked to the head by Lumine again

"Hehe, it's nice to hear you say that~" Paimon said

"Ha, with any luck, it'll give you a head start here. Lumine. Y/N, Thoma's resided on Ritou for quite some time now. It wouldn't be going too far to say he's the fixer around these parts. If you two run into any problems here, just talk to Thoma. But if he pulls any move on you two, I'll be sure to deal with him personally the next time I'm around." Beidou said

"No need to worry. I'm sure we'll get along just fine." Thoma laughed

"Good then, if it's all settled. I'll be going. I wouldn't want to be caught with my sails here. I do have a wanted fugitive on board, after all."

"Oh, right. Kazuha..." Paimon said

"Until next time, Traveler. Y/N. Remember to give it your all, no matter what perilous storm you may encounter." Beidou said

"Looking forward to see you again, Beidou!" Lumine said

"See you." Y/N said

"Fair seas, Captain Beidou, byebye!" Paimon said

"Now then, first things first, we need to get you registered at the border checkpoint." Thoma said

"Um, Paimon thought we were supposed to be keeping things on the down low. Are we just gonna walk into the government's hands?" Paimon asked

"Haha, don't underestimate the reaches of the Sakoku decree. You wouldn't be able to avoid inspection even if you tried. So we have to play by the rules, even if we're kind of bending them." Thoma said

"Oh, okay." Lumine said

Y/N, Lumine and Paimon got inside Ritou and they also finished applying for residency. The processing fee for Y/N, Lumine and Paimon was three million mora. However, Thoma managed to bargain the price. Y/N also tried, but he ended up being slapped by Lumine.

flashback

"Hey, girlie. Would you be able to reduce the fee to a 900 mora? I'll offer you dinner and a night with us." Thoma said while smirking and posing with Y/N

"I'll pay for dinner. It'll be the best night of your life." Y/N said

"We'll be playing-" Thoma was cut off

"O-Oh, okay. I... um... I would love to, but a dinner would be enough..." Yurika blushed

"Y/N!" Lumine slapped Y/N

Y/N fell to the ground dumbfoundedly staring at Lumine

"I guess we're playing the hotpot game with just the two of us, Y/N." Thoma said

"Eh?" Lumine and Yurika were confused

flashback ends

They just finished some taxing problems and Y/N heard that Thoma is an attendant for the Kamisato Clan. Y/N once heard about the Kamisato Clan when he was a child and his parents used to say they were an enemy clan, but a clan with the same blood as Y/N's family from a few centuries ago.
