Chapter 21: Finding The Sage
Toriyama flew past the tall mountains. We were one step closer to finding Fu Hua.
Paimon: So is there anything you can tell us about Fu Hua?
Patrick: To start, she's a sage and possesses the spirit of the Phoenix. She also goes by other names like Jingwai, Phoenix, and Fuka. And she's over 50,000 years old like Toriyama.
Paimon: WHAT?! How can she be that old?!
Patrick: Because of her Divine Key, Fenghuang Down that prevented her from aging. She's our class monitor and fights with her fists.
Paimon: What about your boat master captain? What's his name?
Patrick: He has no name. So we just call him Captain. He's the captain of his ship, the Hyperion. When ever we get sent on missions overseas, we usually get deployed from his ship. And he's an idiot and a pervert.
Paimon: Like how stupid and perverted is he?
Patrick: The kind who flirts and is lustful. And he is also dumb. He always ends up in tragic events. And he thinks of himself as a harem king blessed with being in a squadron of girls and being in charge of the girls. Every time he gets into an accident, the girls aways misunderstand him and always hit him thinking he did something to them on purpose.
Paimon: What about you?
Patrick: I tend to avoid accidents and misunderstandings with the girls. But every time I get into a misunderstanding I always block and hit back for payback just to get even with them to show them that I'm nothing like the Captain.
Paimon: You should use elemental sight to try to find them now.
Patrick: You're right, I should.
I used elemental sight and saw a large trace of Pyro energy coming from Mt. Aozang. I also sensed a small trace of Anemo energy. I pointed at Mt. Aozang
Patrick: Over there. I sense them over there.
Underneath a shaded area was a girl floating while meditating.
Instantly we recognized her to be Fu Hua in her old sage dress, Azure Empyrea and with the long hair in a pony tail. And she had a Pyro Vision attached to her sage dress.
Patrick: That's her! Over there! That's Fu Hua!
Toriyama: Let's go!
Toriyama flew in the direction towards Mt. Aozang.
(Mt. Aozang)
Toriyama landed then we jumped off. He laid down
Paimon flew over to Fu Hua and floated around her. Before Paimon got to her, Fu Hua opened her eyes to be greeted by Paimon.
Fu Hua: Greetings, little one.
Paimon: So you're the 50,000 year old sage that Patrick talked about. We finally get to meet you. I'm Paimon.
Fu Hua: Fu Hua. It's nice to meet you little Paimon.
Fu Hua got out of her meditating pose and floated back down to the ground and stood up to see us already close to her.
Fu Hua: Hello everyone. Long time no see.
Aether: It's nice to meet you. I'm Aether.
Fu Hua: I know who both you and Paimon are. I heard about everything you guys have done in Mondstadt.
Patrick: So how has Liyue been for you and the Captain?
As Fu Hua began to tell her story, flashback scenes started playing.
Fu Hua: Well... to start... after coming here, we've had to get by. Luckily since I've had experience getting through ancient times, I knew the ways around. At Liyue Harbor we registered into the Adventurer's Guild. We've been fighting against the monsters in Liyue. Especially against the Abyss Order and the Fatui. I decided to go by my old title the Celestial Empyrean and have been becoming well known through out Liyue like in my old days in China.
Kiana: You did protect China with Nuwa, Fuxi, and Book of Fuxi. So you would know your way around ancient times.
Fu Hua: Doing the guild requests, commissions, and quests made me feel nostalgic. Including fighting in the dungeons of Liyue too. As for the Captain, since he is able to fight thanks to Anemo magic and the use of a sword, he's been using old battle tactics he used to do before becoming a commanding officer on the Hyperion. Though he tends to get into awkward situations.
Then the flashback scenes stopped.
Patrick: Where is the Captain anyway? Wasn't he supposed to be with you?
Fu Hua: Oh, he's just with the ELFs Book of Fuxi, Jingwai's Wings, and Blood Embrace.
Paimon: ELFs?
Fu Hua: Short for Equipment: Living Forms. It's an acronym.
Patrick: What is he doing with the ELFs?
Fu Hua: Just finding some Sunsettas and some snapdragons, tofu, and lotus heads. I'm going to be making Jewelry Soup. A few days after getting trapped in this world, we found the ELFs.
Paimon: Were they fished out like I was?
Fu Hua: No they weren't. They were fighting off Geo Slimes but we saved them and they joined us.
???: *huff* *huff*
Coming into view was the Captain of the Hyperion carrying a bag filled with the stuff Fu Hua wanted. With him were the 3 ELFs. He was in adventurer clothing. Instead of wearing his usual airship hat, he was wearing an adventurer hat and had an Anemo Vision too.
Paimon: So thats him?
Patrick: Yes. That's him.
I walked over to him while Aether and Paimon followed me.
Jingwai's Wings: Keep going. Just a few more feet.
Captain: Easy for you to say, Master.
Blood Embrace: I would have wanted to drink your blood but you still need your blood to keep your veins pumping.
Book of Fuxi: After all this time in Teyvat, you're barely even keeping up.
Patrick: You've done enough carrying. We'll take it from here.
The 4 saw me, Aether, and Paimon.
Captain: Patrick... long time no see...
Paimon: So you're the nameless captain that Patrick talked about.
Captain: That's me. The Captain of a ship being in charge of a squadron of cute girls...
Then he collapsed from exhaustion.
Paimon: So he really is an idiot.
Patrick: Yeah.
Aether: We better help him.
Patrick: Right, we should.
Aether took hold of the bag while I carried the Captain back to the group. I laid him down underneath the tree's shade then Aether gave Fu Hua what she needed.
Jingwai's Wings: While gathering the ingredients we encountered hilichurls, slimes, and eyes of the storm. I've had to use my healing power on him.
Blood Embrace: He barely could keep up with us.
Book of Fuxi: And he had to climb all the way up here feeling so exhausted.
Fu Hua: Let him rest now. I better get started.
Fu Hua began preparing the Jewelry Soup. The 3 ELFs introduced themselves to Aether and Paimon.
Jingwai's Wings: Greetings, I am Jingwai's Wings. I am a sage and a master.
Blood Embrace: I am Blood Embrace. I'm a mini vampire since I can drink blood.
Book of Fuxi: And I am Book of Fuxi. I was created by Fu Hua's two old Goddess friends, Fuxi and Nuwa... who're... dead... in the ancient times of our home world I stood by Fu Hua's side and fought beside her.
Paimon: I'm Paimon. Paimon's glad that more mini beings like Paimon are tagging along with us.
Aether: I'm Aether. It's nice to meet you.
Book of Fuxi: We are from different worlds but we are in the same situation you are. So we make a good party.
Paimon: Paimon can't fight, but Paimon is a great guide.
Jingwai's Wings: So you speak in 3rd person point of view. I think we're going to get along just fine.
When the Captain woke up, Fu Hua had already started making the Jewelry Soup.
Theresa: You're finally awake.
The Captain sat up and rubbed his eyes. Aether and Paimon introduced themselves to the Captain then when the Captain was fully awake, he introduced himself.
Captain: I am the Captain of the ship, the Hyperion. While it is true that I have no name, that's just how it is with me since I am just a boat master.
Aether: Is it uncomfortable for both you and Patrick to be in a party full of girls?
Captain: Not at all, Patrick may feel uncomfortable but I'm not.
Patrick: When we first met I was uncomfortable being in a party of girls but after a while, I got used to it.
Paimon: And Patrick says that you've been getting into a lot of misunderstandings with the girls. Name one time you got into a misunderstanding.
Captain: A few times when I purposely touched Kiana 3 times, she kicked me back into an elevator.
Kiana got tick marks on her head then an angry smile.
Kiana: You can say that. I did.
A memory cloud appeared above his head that shows what happened.
Then it went poof and disappeared.
Patrick in mind: He's supposed to be the comic relief character. So he's supposed to be an idiot and perverted.
After some time has passed, Fu Hua finished making the Jewelry Soup and we began digging in.
Fu Hua: The Sunsettia fruit is really great like any other fruit from other worlds.
Mei: By the way, have you seen Sakura and Kallen?
Fu Hua: Yes we have. They were coming from the nation of Inazuma and they had Selune's Elegy and Higokumaru. They told us that they're going to watch the Rite of Descension from somewhere far.
Aether: Why would they want to do that?
Fu Hua: Because they don't want to get into the crowd of people. They feel that it's not the right time for them to meet us.
Patrick: Ok.
Paimon: You said that you fought against the Fatui. Is that right?
Fu Hua: Yes. Their muscles were really strong but not as strong as my muscles. However I was unable to pin them down for any crimes as they kept erasing all evidence and kept getting away.
Blood Embrace: They couldn't even bring me down as I kept crushing them with an axe. Their blood tasted really great and they were terrified by me that they ran away because they were scared of me sucking them dry of their blood.
Jingwai's Wings: I've had to use my healing powers on the Captain so he can fight against the Fatui.
Book of Fuxi: And since I can boost elemental damage, mostly Pyro damage. The Captain was able to beat a few Fatui soldiers thanks to my ability to boost elemental damage. And Fu Hua was able to bring down a lot of Fatui soldiers.
Theresa: Well back in Mondstadt, we had our butts beat by La Signora and she was able to overpower us and stabbed us with her Cryo magic.
Patrick: I couldn't event melt her ice with my fire. The Fatui keep covering their tracks to make sure that no one follows them or finds out what they are doing.
Captain: Pinning the Fatui down for crimes will be harder than Henry Stickman pinning the Top Hat Clan down for crimes by infiltrating their airship to get some evidence that they're guilty.
Patrick: And like trying to find Yoshikagi Kira.
Fu Hua: I'm sure we'll be able to pin the Fatui down for crimes. We just have to get stronger to surpass them and their 11 Harbingers.
Kiana: We better. I don't want to get beaten by La Signora twice.
Mei: We'll get a chance when we meet her again.
Seele: I still want to see more. I want to see more of this place.
Patrick: Sure thing Seele.
I turned to Fu Hua.
Patrick: Fu Hua, there is someone that I need you to meet. It will take a a few minutes.
Fu Hua: Who exactly?
Patrick: I'll explain to you later.
Once we were done with our Jewelry soup, Fu Hua and Mei put the dishes and bowls back into their inventories. Then Fu Hua and I jumped onto Toriyama's back then he took off flying. The gang split up to explore around the mountains.
(Mt. Hula).
Fu Hua and I were now at Mt. Hula. In this area where there's water and a waterfall.
Toriyama was laying down near the teleport way point.
Fu Hua: So who are we meeting?
Patrick: KaoruSeta-Simp /Grimluck/Grim/Wolfgang/Wolf and his #1 favorite servant Charles Henri Sanson.
Fu Hua: Why them?
Patrick: Because Charles has been wanting to see you again.
Fu Hua: But I'm not Grimluck's version of me. I'm your version of me.
Charles won't care if you are not the same Fu Hua he knew in Grimluck's FanFiction of "Honkai Impact 3rd".
Fu Hua: But still...
I pulled out a jar with a magic cloud in it.
Patrick: This contains a copy of Grimluck's Fu Hua's memories. I'm gonna have to spray it on you so you have Grimluck's Fu Hua's memories so you know everything Charles is talking about.
Fu Hua: I suppose I could use that. How long till it wears off?
Patrick: Since this is a FanFiction and I make most of the decisions, it will wear off till after the cameo.
Fu Hua: Ok, Go ahead. Spray it on me.
Patrick: Thanks.
I opened the jar and sprayed the cloud on Fu Hua then I closed it and put it back in my inventory.
My Fu Hua had Grimluck's Fu Hua's memories.
Fu Hua: When exactly do they get here? And how are they showing up?
Patrick: I don't know. But I think I'll leave it to them on how they show up.
And then from the sky an unidentified lifeform crashed down within the speed of sound.
Patrick: I guess this is how creative Grim or Wolf or whatever he wants to call himself can be.
In the small crater Charles and Wolf stood up and brushed off the ash and stains off of them while the smoke faded away slowly.
Wolf: *Coughs* *Coughs* Next time Charles. Don't let Moca touch the rayshifting!
Patrick: If I had Hydro I would wash them off then use Pyro heat to dry them off but can't because right now I only have Pyro, Anemo, and Geo now.
Fu Hua: You could have asked Toriyama to spray them with water. But let's just help them up.
Patrick: Ok. You get Charles and I'll get Wolf.
Fu Hua and I walked on over to the crater to help them up.
Wolf: Be careful. Because I brought my Team Fortress 2 supplies with me
Patrick: Ok, whatever. Just take my hand and I'll use my Geo power and get rid of this crater so nothing blows up.
Fu Hua reaches her hand to Charles.
Charles looks at her once again. Then a sparkly background appears behind her.
Charles: A lot of stuff happened in our Teyvat. And Master lost his King Crimson. I can finally see you again. *Sniff* I'm happy.
Fu Hua and I pull them out of the crater then I used my Geo power and got rid of it.
Patrick: What do you mean Wolf lost Diavalo's powers? What happened? If I read a recent chapter I don't remember what happened.
Charles: When Master left somewhere. He got his powers absorbed and destroyed.
Patrick: Oh good grief... you keep letting bad things happen to you... well you should know that my gacha luck hasn't been good lately because every time I try to get Venti I keep getting Barbara instead which I've at least used to upgrade her constellation and level her up to 40.
Wolf: Good for you. This hurts.
Patrick: However as time went by, I've been getting better pulls. On the Venti banner, I got Mona and Xiangling. Then I got Razor. On the Klee banner when I did my first 10 pulls I got Klee on my first try. Then I got Beidou. And since this is off to a bad start. I'm gonna have to do a cut away to change this scene.
I snap my fingers then the screen slides to another screen where the background is brighter and Fu Hua is in an embrace with Charles.
Charles: I missed you so much.
Fu Hua: So did I. I may not be the Fu Hua you remember but Patrick gave me the memories.
Charles: At least I could be happier with the one I love.
Then they leaned in and kissed.
I watched them with Wolf.
Patrick: How long was it since your #1 servant last saw her?
Wolf: A month.
Patrick: A month. Since you can't use Diavalo's powers anymore you can always try to mimic your other favorite fictional character's moves or use someone else's powers like I can. Since I've been writing I've been able to do Kirito's Starburst Stream and a while after that I've been able to mimic and use Shirou Emiya's Unlimited Bladeworks and my other favorite fictional characters' moves.
Wolf: Alright then. I guess I have one more trick
Wolf spins around to change his appearance, then he struck a pose after that.
Wolf: Heh. I know I'm beautiful.
Patrick: Yes you are. "Genshin Impact" has been becoming really popular that it's trending all over the internet. A lot of people have been making memes on Paimon being emergency food and her line in Japanese "Ehe the Nandayo!?" meaning "What do you mean Hee-Hee!?" In English. And memes about Lisa's Japanese moaning and not to use Lisa's Japanese voice when climbing.
Charles blushed when Lisa was mentioned. Then he and Fu Hua separate.
Charles: She does moan, like my Himeko when she climbs.
Wolf: And FYI She IS Kiara Sessyoin.
Patrick: All three voiced by Rie Tanaka. I've heard her voice Neptune in "HyperDimension Neptunia", Darya Nikitina in "Dr. Stone", Maho Nishizumi in "Girls Und Panzer", And Duke of York in "Azur Lane".
Wolf: Okay. This appearance is boring me.
Wolf spins once more for a new appearance.
Wolf: This is better.
Patrick: Ok... As I was saying. Bronya did Lisa's side quest then Seele and I joined her. When she saw me with my master, Toriyama, the dragon that's laying down near the teleport way point now, she already knew from Bronya and Seele. Then When I used my summoning spell and sent Toriyama back, Lisa actually kissed me for how I can use a summoning spell then I turned beetroot red with steam coming out of me then blasted off into the sky like a rocket and when I got back down, I had swirls in my eyes and I was still beetroot red. Seele was also beetroot red with wide pale white eyes and Bronya had an angered expression both from seeing Lisa kiss me.
I face palmed before continuing.
Patrick: Then while we were still in Mondstadt, Bronya worked in the library as Lisa's temporary personal assistant because Bronya was really smart and because she has a few things in common with Blanc. During that side quest I gave a cameo to Blanc, Patchoui Knowledge, and Urano Motosu from the Isekai Anime "Ascendence of a Bookworm".
Wolf: Owch.
Wolf: You know. By the time we return to our Teyvat. Hikawa Sayo will be there.
Patrick: I know. Seele is still not used to that kind of stuff and Bronya could have attacked Lisa like Blanc for doing something indecent to me. And since this new character Klee is coming I'm not sure if I should gacha for her as I prefer to gacha for charters as I am progressing the story.
Wolf: And my bones still hurt, it feels like I'm on a plane where Joseph is piloting it.
Patrick: Speaking of Joseph Joestar, I plan on referencing him and his secret weapon.
Patrick: I still haven't decided when to give Saber and Shirou a cameo.
???: Then maybe I should step in now.
Leaning against one of the trees was Saber from the "Fate" Series.
Saber: I know you still haven't had any ideas on how to give me and Shirou a cameo but since your friends Wolf and Charles are here I thought I should drop in.
Charles: FYI I died twice.
Wolf: Irrelivant. Saber, what's next? Castoria?
Saber: Just me.
Charles: What now Master?
Wolf does not answer the question before I decided to answer it.
Patrick: You should probably head back to your Chaldea now. You got to see Fu Hua again and I gave you both your cameo. But I don't know how you get back to Chaldea after getting warped with your ray shifting but its just a suggestion.
Wolf: Well. We'll be going
Wolf and Charles started glowing.
Wolf: This is how we get home. Bye now.
Charles: I love you Fu Hua.
Fu Hua: I love you too Charles.
Wolf: And also...
Wolf slashed a hillichurl upwards.
Wolf: Track. And Kill!
Charles: I'll be waiting for my own Fu Hua. Goodbye.
After Wolf's kill. They disappeared.
Patrick: Well, that's that.
I took out the same jar again.
Patrick: Now it will ware off and magically come back in here.
Fu Hua: Ok.
And then finally the effects wore off and the Jar glowed and the cloud was back to its normal size.
Patrick: This will go to Charles' Fu Hua and she will have the memories of this moment.
I put the jar back in my inventory.
Saber: I guess I should go too.
This random portal opened up then Saber stepped through before it closed.
Patrick: Now we can split up to explore the mountains ourselves.
Fu Hua: Right.
Fu Hua did a long jump and disappeared from my sight. I turned to Toriyama.
Patrick: What about you?
Toriyama: I think I'll stay longer to explore this place.
Patrick: Very well.
I brought out my wind glider then I jumped and repelled myself up with my Pyro magic shooting fire from my hands and flew away while Toriyama did the same thing and took off flying.
