nEverything about Fischl’s appearance seemed to be designed to demand attention.

nThe bangs of her yellow long hair covered one side of her face, hiding the eyepatch beneath.

nHer black and purple leotard accentuated her petite build and shapely hips, the coattails giving her an extra flair as she walked through the city streets.

nHer stockings were asymmetrical as well, one juicy thigh exposed for the world to see.

nThis young girl was a natural beauty. Light skin and hourglass body.

nAn outfit and posture that attracted the gaze of everyone around her, be it men or women.

nAt least until she started talking…

nFischl had the voice of a young teen, while it was pleasant to listen to, the same couldn’t be said about her tone that was laden with arrogant self-satisfaction.

nAnd that wasn’t even mentioning her word usage…

nShe had a vocabulary so weird and fascinating at the same time, that the adventurers themselves have made a so called Prinzessin Dictionary they could use to roughly understand what she was saying although it wasn’t very effective as there were hundreds of thousands of words and phrases, and it would take a while to find what you were looking for.

nFischl was aware of this fact, but merely scoffed. Such trivial thing as a Dictionary wouldn’t be enough for them to fully comprehend or contain her cryptic language of gods.

nBesides, the real deal was born powerful and wise enough to understand what she meant by her words, just like the man she met not too long ago, and his ability to comprehend everything she said.

nShe was indeed talking about Yomite, the one and only.

nShe didn’t know whether to be happy or frustrated about him.

nOn the one hand, she was almost shining with happiness when she finally found someone who clearly understood what she was saying, but on the other hand, she was tad bit frustrated that her way of speaking was decoded by him in a matter of seconds. That shouldn’t have been possible…Unless…

n‘Unless.’

nFischl silently gazed at the back of Yomite who was currently walking in front of her with Hu Tao.

n‘Unless that gent ist a kindred soul of stars. That wouldst explain everything. A tragic being of another world from beyond the stars, just like I am.’

nThey were currently in front of the gates of Mondstadt after exterminating more than six Hilichurl camps around the Wolvendom.

nYomite remembered that he had to collect something as a proof of subjugation, so he took their broken masks with him.

nFischl then told him he could even sell those for Mora, which was convenient.

nThe moment Fischl stepped into the town’s marketplace in Mondstadt, she struck a pose right in front of the Adventurer’s Guild, sweeping her hand across the plaza like a king addressing his subjects. Or in this case, Prinzessin addressing her loyal followers.

nAnd as she did so a cool breeze drifted through the town, making her blond hair and dark clothes dance in the wind.

n“Behold lowly commoners, for I, the Prinzessin der Verurteilung, successor to the grand and glorious lost kingdom of the Immernachtreich, had returned and humbly request to join this commoner’s party! Such a shame that a sovereign of my stature must stoop to walking these lowly streets of Mond yet, that is my perilous fate. Beseech me then, Katheryne!”

n“O-Oh…Welcome Miss Fischl…” Katheryne had a troubled look on her face. She slowly reached her hand towards a book that was neatly placed on a small shelf right next to her and started breezing through it, trying to locate words.

n“Ehm…Immer…Immernach… something…Could mean twenty three things!? Uh…please wait for a bit…”

n‘Is she being serious right now?’

nYomite frowned as he walked up towards the counter, “She wishes to join our party, so could you write her name down as a new member? Also we have completed the daily quests.”

n“Ah sure! Certainly!” She was visibly relieved. Dealing with Fischl was harder than expected.

n“Aha! So you do understand! Then fate does indeed bring kindred spirits together! Grandiose!” Fischl gestured towards the sky.

n“Birds of feather, flock together! My days as an interpreter are over!” Oz’s voice sounded strangely happy.

nAs if a huge weight was taken off of his non-existant shoulders.

n“No, I just guessed…” Yomite denied it quickly.

nFischl looked happier than before. After a moment of thinking she gave a small smile and crossed her arms, “Do not fret! A Prinzessin should always give praise where praise is due… Now, let us converse some more. Do not be mistaken, these are to be the foundations of our new world…”

nIt was far easier than he expected, he didn’t even have to try that hard.

nApparently the reason she was joining his party was that she was interested in conversing with him, although he could clearly see that when they defeated a Hilichurl, she would try to collect as much materials to sell as she could, so Mora might have also been the reason.

n‘Birds of feather flock together my ass, I will have to talk with that raven Oz about these allusions that weren’t true in the slightest…’

nIt was only a momentary feeling of embarassment that won’t happen again.

nHe just wanted to make sure he would take any chance he could to get another capable member aboard, nothing more.

n‘No more roleplaying. It pains me on physical, mental and spiritual level…’

nStill, Fischl said she preferred going in alone and that she might not be available at all times, at least that was what he understood from her speech pattern, but she didn’t mind joining a party.

nApparently, she had joined multiple parties before, but it was spontaneous choice, and the other members didn’t really reach out to her the next day and avoided her the best they could.

nThat was also partially the reason she preferred being alone.

nYomite concluded that she was being alienated by people, just like Hu Tao.

nOz explained her whole situation to him during a bathroom break.

n‘That’s kind of sad…’

nHe guessed that they probably couldn’t handle her antics and got rid of her as soon as they could, as communication in a party was a must and she was a huge demerit when it came to speaking.

nAs Katheryne reached out for documents and a oddly shaped item behind her, Yomite noticed something weird at the back of her neck but chose to ignore it.

n‘Nah…there Is no way that there is an actual keyhole there… right? My eyes are just playing tricks on me… It’s probably a birthmark or a tattoo…’ He refused to believe what he just saw.

nKatheryne then placed a card and odd item which turned out to be a black pin In front of them while saying, “Please drop your blood on the card.”

nYomite pricked his finger with the pin as he was told, and so did Hu Tao.

nAlthough it was a bit hard for him to do so and he had to press the finger much harder than expected for it to even bleed.

nWhen he touched the card with that bloodied finger, white characters slowly begun to surface.

nKatheryne then explained, “This is a guild AR card, you are capable enough to become an adventurer now. They are given to the new adventurers the moment they complete their first daily missions successfully. Now the blood contract was formed, so if someone other than the original owner touches this card for ten seconds, the magic device will turn the card grey. It is for counterfeit prevention. Also, if you happen to lose the card, report it to the guild immediately. Although it costs money, we will reissue a new one.”

nKatheryne took Yomite’s card, and after a short while, the black card turned grey. When he touched the card once again, it instantly returned to black.

n“That’s amazing.”

nYomite wondered how it worked.

n‘It just takes your blood, and it’s bound to you forever. Interesting.’

n“Hmpf. Basic mortal equipment, nothing special.” Fischl sneered.

n“That finalized the registration. You are both officially AR 0, which I hope will steadily increase in the future! I wish you luck! And as for you Miss Fischl, you are already AR 28 but by joining a party, you will also be given a rank of their party, which is currently AR 0. So you may unlock a new party reward perks as you go on adventures together! Of course, your previous rank won’t be lost.”

nShe also handed all three of them dog tags, which would update their team adventurer rank automatically.

n“Shiny~!”

nHu Tao played with it in her hands.

nYomite then asked for one more tag as there was still Lumine, but Katheryne said that Lumine had to be present and that she couldn’t give away more tags than the current number of people present.

n
