Yomite beamed after receiving five million Mora from Rosaria.
“Pleasure doing business with you!”
“Sod off. Dickweed.” Before leaving, the nun slammed her heel into the ground with anger.
“A dickweed? I don’t think I’ve heard of such an insult before…how creative.” Yomite muttered to himself.
Before she could leave, however, an unexpected individual suddenly emerged in front of Rosaria, causing her to freeze.
“Oh, if it isn’t Rosaria. I don’t believe I’ve ever seen you angry like this? So you too are a human, huh?”
“Kaeya. On your way to tavern, I assume?”
“Of course! You know me well!”
“Then why stop here? Young tycoon’s pub is on the other side of town. You should know that given he is your brother.”
“Oh, right! I rushed here since I heard some poor citizens were scared of two violent people, engaging in hand-to-hand combat, and I wanted to get some free credit by beating them up, but looking at you two, I think I’d be the one in trouble instead,” Kaeya explained as he looked at Yomite.
“Yo, lil bro. Woah, it looks like you’re roughed up, hey? Rosaria doesn’t look it, but she’s from an actual assassin unit under the Church, you need to be careful to not get on her bad side or you won’t be sleeping soundly during the night, ey.”
“Kaeya…you and your lying mouth…” Rosaria sighed loudly and took her leave once more, “I need a cold one. You coming or not?”
“Oh no, my mistake, everything I just said is a lie…kind of…” Kaeya corrected himself, “Anyway, I would love to go for a drink or two, what do you say, lil bro?”
“Sure…” Yomite nodded slowly, “I’ve got some Mora for free just now, so how about we treat ourselves to something nice?”
“Sound good! Ah~ my lil bro is so much better than my grumpy older brother! I’m so glad I adopted you!”
“Well, you didn’t give me much of a choice there…it was more like kidnapping, than an adoption…”
“A surprise adoption! Against your will~”
As they began walking towards the tavern, Yomite fixed his shoulder back into its rightful position.
Kaeya noticed this immediately.
“…Hoh, it seems you’re quite experienced with that kind of injury.”
“Indeed, back when I was a complete beginner and couldn’t fight at all, Hu Tao trained me like mad and I usually ended up with some bruise or worse…”
“Oh? That little girl? If I remember correctly, you said she was your official lover and the future wife. You sure have…unique taste…” Kaeya chuckled as he spoke, seemingly amused by this.
“Well, I love cute things and hot things, and she’s two in one. I also love her bratty attitude, even if it pisses me off sometimes. So that’s that.”
“Fair enough, to each their own.” Kaeya shrugged it off and tried to change the subject. “By the way, Rosaria. Are you alright? The way you’re walking is a bit…odd.”
“…I am not fine. Tomato Hissha kneed me right in my crotch, and then extorted money from me afterward. Hero of Mondstadt, apparently.” She said in a tone devoid of emotion as she struggled to move without wincing.
“Well at least you’ve got my family name right this time. Improvement!”
“Wow, little bro, you’re merciless even to women…how could you do that to her? She can barely walk straight…” Kaeya stared at Yomite as though impressed by his ruthlessness.
Yomite returned the stare with one of his own. “Well, I’m only ruthless to those who try to attack me first. Either way, it was an accident. I didn’t mean to do that to her, I was only fighting back…”
“Aha. So you were one of her victims too. Well, she does that sometimes. She attacked me a few times too. But after a while, you get used to it.”
“I don’t think that’s a good personality trait to have.”
“True, but what can I say, Mondstadt is full of amazing people, and she’s one of the normal one’s. She isn’t from around here, but she’s trying her best to rehabilitate herself after Grand Master Varka killed her whole—”
“—That’s enough, Kaeya,” Rosaria cut him off coldly. “You’re running your mouth more often than usual. Watch it or I’ll tear it off.”
“Sorry~ Sorry~ It won’t happen again…probably.”
“…Good. Now move along, I want to sit down on my ass to ease the pain.”
“Alright~”
Rosaria rolled her eyes over Kaeya’s overly cheerful and fake attitude towards everything—she knew him well enough to know he was a blabbermouth by nature—and also that most of the things he said weren’t true.
“So, how did the two of you meet?” Yomite asked out of curiosity.
“Well, let’s say we’re drinking buddies.”
“Drinking…buddies?”
“Basically, whenever I’m bored and feel like skipping my work—*cough* …whenever I’m bored ‘after finishing my job at knights of Favonius’ I go out drinking and I see her here quite often, so we drink together and talk a bit.”
His little slip there didn’t escape either of their notice.
“So you’re drunk during working hours?”
“Let’s say…my grandfather’s a pirate and I have inherited his blood, which makes me a better worker when I’m intoxicated~”
“Yeah not buying it.”
“Hey, come on…What do you mean not buying it? I just explained it clearly.” Kaeya complained but didn’t appear to be serious about it as he kept walking alongside them.
