Genshin Impact: I Became The Son Of Greater Lord Rukkhadevata

"Thank you both for rescuing me. I, Bosacius, am not one to forget a favor. If there's anything you need, don't hesitate to ask. As long as it's within my power, I'll do everything I can to help."

"Thanks, Bosacius. Actually, we do have a problem," Aether said, recounting everything they had experienced in Liyue.

Bosacius laughed heartily. "Don't worry, it's just a misunderstanding. Judging by your demeanor, you two are clearly not assassins or thieves. I'll go see the Geo Archon right away and have him clear your names."

After glancing at his fellow Yakshas, Bosacius lit an incense stick before leaving the shrine with the group.

Don't ask why he didn't free the others. His heart was willing, but his strength was insufficient.

Tianheng Mountain

"I'll summon the Geo Archon here. Once he learns I've awakened, he's sure to come, and you can explain everything to him then."

Bosacius invoked the ancient contract Morax had left him, using adeptal arts to call upon the Geo Archon.

However, despite his efforts, nothing happened. Bosacius frowned in confusion.

"Morax… have you forgotten me?" He fell to his knees, feeling as though the world had turned dark.

Meanwhile, hidden nearby, a blue-colored version of the Geo Archon clenched his sharp teeth, grinding them back and forth. Seeing his loyal subordinate reduced to such a pitiful state stirred a mix of guilt and irritation within him. Anger flared in his chest. So what if I embarrass myself a little? I'm still Morax! Aint I?!

"Bosacius, you've awakened…" The Geo Archon suddenly appeared, startling everyone.

Bosacius froze for a moment. Was this really Morax? He double-checked through their contract—yes, it was him. But… since when did the Geo Archon control water elements? And why did he look like this? Could it be that times had changed while he was sealed, and this was the new trend?

Morax patted Bosacius on the shoulder, and then…

Another blue infectee joined the group.

"This is a contagious disease spreading across the continent. I accidentally caught it, and I lost control for a moment when I saw you, which is why you got infected too."

"Morax! You didn't forget me!" Bosacius was so moved that he clung tightly to Morax's leg.

Aether and Dainsleif exchanged glances at this sight.

"Dainsleif, did you bless your mouth or something? Turns out you were right."

And so, thanks to Morax's intervention, the bounty on Aether and Dainsleif was finally lifted.

"We still haven't met up with Xiaochen. Even though our bounty's been revoked, we did complete her task. We didn't free all the Yakshas, but we did release one. Shouldn't we go collect some reward from her?"

Elsewhere…

"Tell me, where did you get the antidote?"

Our dear Geo Princess had been caught by her parents.

Xiaochen tried to lie, but she was immediately exposed. She attempted to cover it up, but after being seen through again, she endured a "loving lesson" and was now lying quietly on the bed, sobbing pitifully with red, swollen eyes—both miserable and adorable.

Xiao sat silently beside her, applying ointment to her bruised backside.

"Xiao, I'm already this old. Why do my parents still beat me all the time?" Xiaochen asked tearfully, feeling deeply wronged.

Xiao didn't know how to respond.

"To the Geo Archon and his wife, you'll always just be their child."

"But I'm already so grown up! Aunt Rukkhadevata told me that when Bro Yu was my age, he was already hunting down gods in the desert and battling dragons alone."

"You can't compare yourself to him, Miss. Not all gods are the same. Bro Yu's divine origin grants him immense strength and immortality. There are probably only a handful of beings on the entire continent capable of killing him."

"So… I'm just too weak, huh?" Xiaochen began crying again, feeling even more dejected. Deep down, however, she was reflecting. Ever since she was born, her father had been like a man possessed, relentlessly hunting down gods. The once chaotic land had been pacified under his rule. She, on the other hand, had never experienced real battle, always living as a sheltered princess. But this wasn't the life she wanted!

A wild ambition suddenly sprouted in Xiaochen's heart. I don't want to be Morax's little princess—I want to be the princess of this world! I want everything I desire to be mine!

Several centuries later…

In the cold and regal palace of Snezhnaya, the elegant and dignified Tsaritsa extended her hand to Xiaochen.

"Come, be my princess. Together, we will upend this world."

Determination as solid as rock gleamed in Xiaochen's eyes. She reached out and took the Tsaritsa's hand.

"No problem, Your Majesty. I will follow your will."

In the solemn, icy halls of the palace, a clear and crisp voice resounded with a solemn oath.

"From this moment on, you are Fatui Harbinger Katyusha, codename: Princess. You will have no seat among the Harbingers, for no rank can match your nobility. You are the Princess of Snezhnaya herself!"

(Ah, the rebellious streak is showing!)
