Chapter 8: Training with Toriyama and Bronya's date with Lisa

(Morning)

After having breakfast, the Valkyries and I were at the water fountain. Aether and Paimon were already away.

Patrick: Ok, so we've now been here in Mondstadt for a few days now, so we better make this worth the while. What plans do you girls have now today?

Kiana: I'm gonna go questing with Mei for the guild!

Mei: We're only doing that because we need to make some currency.

Bronya: The Bronya will go study with Lisa and it means that the Bronya is gonna do the Troublesome Work quest.

Seele: I think I'm gonna walk around Mondstadt then meet up with big sister Bronya.

Patrick: I'm gonna go out training my Pyro magic. I might pull off a Seiya Ryuuguuin but it's nothing like that. So at sunset we meet back here.

After we put hands in the middle, we separated and went our separate ways. As I was passing by The Adventurer's Guild, my first cameo called out to me and appeared.

???: Hey, Patrick!

A girl in black and red armor was waving her hand at me. It was Maple, real name Kaede Honjou from "BOFURI: I Don't Want to Get Hurt, so I'll Max Out My Defense." 

Patrick: Maple!

She shakes hands with me.

Maple: Glad to see that you're doing fine.

Patrick: I am. I'm still waiting for your second season to come out.

Maple: It will be come out before you know it.

Patrick: Nice meeting you here, Maple.

Maple: Like always, and thanks for the cameo.

Patrick: Anytime.

(Windrise)

I got to Windrise and decided to do my Pyro training on top of a cliff where I can see the giant tree. I put on a pair of gauntlets with Pyro properties I got from a luxurious chest I found after defeating a camp of hilichurls. Since I was now limited to air and fire, I wanted to keep my edge and mimc my favorite fictional characters' fire and air moves.

Drago's dragon spirit appeared.

Drago: Glad you can take your time to train. Our Herrscher core including Kiana's, Mei's, and Bronya's have been affected when coming here. It's like our gems have split apart. Have a look at yours.

I made my Herrscher core appear and saw that it was only glowing with fire and air while the rest of it was grey.

Patrick: I did say I was gonna limit myself and start at the beginning. So now I have to relearn them like Spyro did. After some training, I'll summon Toriyama to do some training with him before we fight against Dvalin.

I took a deep breath then created a fist with fire coming off of it then I shot fire from my right fist into the distance.

(Whispering Woods)

Kiana and Mei were hunting hilichurls and slimes. Right now Mei was using her Electro magic with her sword fighting against a camp of hilichurls while Kiana was shooting with her crossbow giving support.

Kiana: Feel's like back home right?

Mei: A little bit, yes.

(Mondstadt)

Seele was walking around Mondstadt with a happy smile on her face.

Seele: It feels so fascinating being in a fantasy city like this. It's like being in a fairytale.

(Knights of Favonius Headquarters Library)

Bronya entered into the library and found Lisa.

Lisa: *Yawn* If you're looking for a book, please register it in the log. The restricted section is currently not lending any books... Oh? It's you, little cutie.

Bronya: Greetings Lisa.

Lisa: It's so good to see you! More refreshing than a strong cup of tea in the afternoon.

Bronya: Clearly Lisa is supposed to be working, but Lisa is not...

Lisa: I mean, other than Jean, who really works that earnestly anyway?

Bronya: Others work hard too. Especially the Bronya and her friends.

Lisa: So did you have something you needed? ...Or did you just come to see me?

Bronya: The Bronya just wants to study and read with Lisa. That is what the Bronya came here for.

Lisa: Oooh, someone who is into reading like me. Not what I was expecting. But of course you can read with me, cutie.

Bronya: Thank you, Lisa. Got any good books to recommend?

Lisa: Recommended books... Sadly, everything I'd personally recommend is all in the restricted section, which we're not currently lending out.

Bronya: And why is that? Why are you not lending out books from the restricted section?

Lisa: A lot of reasons why. Oh, right. Would you be interested in checking out the Teyvat Travel Guide? I think it would be quite helpful for you as travelers here.

Bronya: Yes that would suffice nicely. Where exactly is it?

Lisa: I suppose I can try and find a copy from the list...

Bronya: Isn't this subject Lisa's job? What does subject Lisa  mean "I suppose"...?

Lisa: Oh dear... That's unfortunate. Our copy is currently being borrowed. That said, it is now overdue... Come to think of it, quite a few of our books are now overdue. I REALLY wish people would just return their books... ...on time!

Bronya in mind: Just like the Bronya remembers from the beta tests, Lisa is scary about books not being returned to Lisa. She really gets angry like Patchouli and Blanc when it comes to bad things happening to books. And like Marisa not returning any of Patchouli's books. Also like Rom and Ram drawing in Blanc's books. The Bronya thinks she'll pull a Patrick and say what he would say.

Bronya: You seem to get angry every time something bad happens to a book and when a book does not get returned like these two girls subject Patrick knew, named Patchouli and Blanc. He also knew this other girl named Marisa who doesn't seem to return some of Patchouli's books back to her while Blanc gets angry every time her younger sisters Rom and Ram draw in her books.

Two split screens appeared from the right and the left of Bronya. In the right split screen was Blanc in her priest outfit from "CyberDimension Neptunia: 4 Goddesses Online" inside her library and in the left split screen was Patchouli in her library.

Blanc: You can say that again, I tend to get angry easily every time Rom and Ram draw in my books.

Patchouli: And I tend to get angry easily every time Marisa steals my books and doesn't return some of them.

Blanc: And considering we're both voiced by the same person in Japanese, we have a lot of things in common.

Bronya: Yes we do. We're both emotionless, we talk silent, we're both Kuuderes, we are both really smart, and we are both heavy hitters.

Blanc: I better go now. I have to mame sure that Rom and Ram aren't drawing in more of my books.

Patchouli: And I have to make sure that I'm well prepared when Marisa comes back.

Blanc and Patchouli: Later.

Both split screens disappear leaving Bronya in the camera view.

Bronya: You were saying?

Lisa: Ugh... such a pain. I'm going out to bring those unreturned books back. If you'd rather get your hands on that copy of the Teyvat Travel Guide sooner, you'd better come with me.

Bronya: Yes, the Bronya will come along with Lisa.

Lisa: You really are such a considerate cutie. Let's go see, first we can go to...

The souvenir shop. It's called "With Wind comes Glory." So let's meet there shortly.

Bronya: Yes, Lisa.

Lisa left Bronya standing there.

Bronya: The Bronya would hate to see her angry again.

???: You got that right. She really is an angry librarian that loves her books more than any person.

Walking up to Bronya was the five year old girl, Myne from "Ascendance of a Bookworm".

Myne: I also love books too. Even after I was killed then sent to another world and becoming overpowered like most Isekai Protagonists.

Bronya: Well fan made overpowered characters are not really liked at all which is why overpowered OCs must be limited and balanced, Urano. Even Lolis like you can become overpowered.

Myne: Soon you and your friends will become overpowered once you all are able to use all seven elements of this world.

Bronya: That maybe true but not too overpowered. Now the Bronya must go on her date with Lisa.

Myne: I'll be waiting for you and Patrick to meet me. Blanc and Patchouli will come here too.

Bronya came outside and found Lisa.

Lisa: Bronya, you're here! Let's begin shall we?

Bronya: Yes.

(Windrise)

I was now near the statue under the giant tree was. I was in the field to summon Toriyama. I used my elemental sight and energy sense to make sure that no one was around and there wasn't anyone in my senses. I held my right hand out then a large glowing construct circle appeared on the ground. I began chanting a summoning spell. As I was chanting, the circle glowed brighter. When I finished chanting, fire erupted from the circle then from the flames appeared Toriyama as he roared out after appearing. Then he stepped on the ground.

Patrick: Master Toriyama.

Toriyama: Patrick, my apprentice.

Patrick: My summoning spell worked. I can summon you.

Toriyama: You summoned me here to train with you for when you go up against Dvalin. I can see that.

Patrick: I only wanted to fight a dragon with a dragon. Unfortunately now I'm only limited to fire and air but the girls and I will continue to learn the other elements once we keep progressing.

Toriyama: I will train with you and prepare for when we face against Dvalin.

Patrick: Thank you Master Toriyama. I appreciate your help.

(Mondstadt)

Bronya and Lisa were near the gate where they found a clue. They had gotten some of the overdue books back but now one was stolen and they are looking for it. Seele had recently joined them after Bronya and Lisa got the second overdue book back.

Lisa: looking at the elemental traces, it doesn't seem likely that the book was stolen.

Seele: So Donna didn't do anything wrong after all.

Lisa: It's not from the restricted section, so it's hardly a book worth stealing. Whoever wanted this book so badly had a strange fixation indeed.

Seele: Hmm... So what do we do now?

Lisa: The elemental traces are very faint but I can tell that the thief took it beyond the city walls. You must see it too, right, Bronya?

Bronya: Yes.

Lisa: Let's follow the trail and have a little look where our thief was headed, shall we?

(Falcon Coast)

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

I rode on Toriyama's back as we were flying in the sky. To go up against Dvalin when up in the sky I had to be riding with Toriyama and practice with aiming.

Patrick: Ok, our training begins now.

Toriyama: Right.

Toriyama flew faster and went lower. We made sure that no one was around to spot us before taking off.

Patrick in mind: This feels like when Kiana and I escaped from Durandal and Schicksal with him. And it feels like training with Hiccup and Toothless from "How To Train Your Dragon".

We flew underneath a rock structure where birds flew. Then we flew up higher then straight. Now he showed off his powerful fire breath, then his ice breath, electricity breath, air breath, earth breath, and water breath.

Patrick in mind: Glad he can still use all elements. I chose not to limit him because of a few reasons why and I can't explain why.

We saw Air Slimes coming at us but Toriyama shot lightning from his mouth and eliminated them. Then we saw an Eye of the Storm boss. Toriyama and I shot fire blasts at it and eliminated it.

Toriyama: What will you do if Dvalin makes you fall off of me?

Patrick: Simple, I'll bring out my wind glider then blast fire from my hands and feet back to you. After getting my gliding license I made my wind glider fire proof with a fire resistant enchantment...!

Toriyama did a barrel roll and made me fall off on purpose. With quick thinking I brought out my wind glider then I blasted fire from my hands and feet.

Patrick: Just like this.

Then I got back on Toriyama's back.

Patrick: There could be more mythical beasts in this world like Unicorns, Pegasus, Griffins, Phoenixes, Wyverns, and Fairies. Not just Dragons.

Toriyama: The Abyss Order could have a beast more powerful and terrifying than Stormterror.

Patrick: Even if they do, we'll be ready for them.

(Starsnatch Cliff)

We had done enough training as we landed at Starsnatch Cliff. I got off of him and went up to his view.

Patrick: I enjoyed training with you, Master. Flying with you made me feel like Hiccup flying on Toothless from "How To Train Your Dragon".

Toriyama: I know. If you are ever in danger with no escape, summon me.

Patrick: I will.

Lisa: My, my. Looks like someone is talking to a dragon.

I turned pale white and so did my eyes when I heard Lisa's voice. I turned and saw Lisa, Bronya, and Seele.

Patrick in mind: Oh no... Why now...?

Lisa: Bronya and Seele already told me. You were trained by a dragon and you were training with him just now.

Patrick: ...I brought him here with a summoning spell I know. I was just training with him for when we go up against Stormterror. But now I have to send him back before anyone else sees him.

I chanted my summoning spell speaking fast then the construct circle appeared in mid air. Then Toriyama spread his wings then took off and went through before it closed.

Patrick: Phew... That was a close one...

Lisa grabbed me and held me close

Lisa: I never knew you were capable of using spells to summon. You really are a cutie, Patrick. I really like your type.

And then she did what I didn't expect her to do...

She kissed me in the lips...

I turned deep beetroot red then I had uncontrollable and steam coming out of me. And then...

I blasted off into the sky like a rocket.

Lisa: My, my. I didn't think he would overreact to me like most of the boys I've kissed.

Seele was also beetroot red with wide pale white eyes. Bronya has an angered expression.

Bronya: How indecent. Flirting then kissing.

Seele: ...Uhhhhhhhhhhh...

Then I came crashing back down. I had swirling eyes and tiny dragons flying around my head and I was still beetroot red.

(Hidden ruins)

After recovering from the kiss Lisa gave me, we found the hidden ruins where the their who stole the book was hiding in.

Seele: The thief lives inside ruins? Mondstadt people do have some strange quirks.

Lisa: Please do not jump to such a preposterous conclusion about the living habits of Mondstadt's residents. This seems far more likely to be the work of some none-too-friendly troublemakers.

Bronya: The Abyss Order?

Lisa: It's like you can read my mind.

Seele: Well she is emotionless and the smartest out of our team, so it's like she can read people's minds.

Lisa: This is more likely to be the Abyss Order's doing. They do seem to have a way of slipping in and out of places like ghosts, after all. Also... There is an elemental seal at the entrance. It looks like the result of an Abyss Mage's magic.

Seele: A seal? How are we going to break it? Is this gonna turn into another huge ordeal?

Lisa: Not to worry. If you think a little magic can keep me out, think again!

Seele: Why is that?

Lisa used her Electro magic then the seal broke instantly.

Lisa: Come on.

Seele: Whoa... So this is what Lisa's like when she's hard at work...

Patrick: Should I get the others?

Lisa: Oh there's no need for that. This is more than enough.

Bronya: The Bronya doesn't want Idiotka to make a mistake.

(Mondstadt)

Kiana: ACHOO!... Someone's talking about me...

Mei: It's probably the others...

(Dungeon)

After defeating a lot of spikes the Cryochanter Abyss Mage showed itself.

Seele: It's an Abyss Mage! Lisa was spot on!

It only took a few seconds to beat it.

Abyss Mage: How did you find this place!? It's... so well hidden!

Lisa: I have no interest in finding out where you little rascals hide yourselves away. But I do want my book back. Tell me, how is it that you have the time to conceal your stronghold and apply a magic seal — but not to sign out a library book in a proper manner? You have no respect whatsoever for other people's works.

Abyss Mage: ...You— You just want... the book? I was unaware that anyone in Mondstadt was concerned with unearthing the secret hidden inside this book... Who... Who are you?

Lisa: The librarian. Although, I believe that should be quite clear already. Return the book. This is an ultimatum.

Abyss Mage: Hmph. Since you insist on concealing your identity... I have all the less reason to give you that book. After all, it contains... the secret... Huh!? Wh—What are you doing!? Such concentrated elemental power! P—Please don't— *shrieking*

After using up all of Lisa's patience, the Abyss Mage loses consciousness in the ensuing electrical current... This terrified me and Seele but Bronya's expression did not change.

Bronya: Lisa is so strong...

Lisa: Hmph. Naughty boys who don't do what they're told need a little punishment to keep them in line.

Patrick and Seele: A LITTLE punishment?! You call that a little punishment?!

Lisa: *sigh* This is why I call it troublesome work. We'll just have to find the book ourselves. It should be around here somewhere.

(Knights of Favonius Headquarters)

After helping Lisa find the last book we returned to Mondstadt then went to the library at the Knights of Favonius Headquarters.

Bronya: Was it really necessary to write Lisa's troublesome work when your adventure rank isn't at 15 yet?

Patrick: Well I wanted to write it down where you go on a date with Lisa instead of me or Aether. I think this side quest should've been introduced after acts 2 or 3. But let's just go inside the library.

Seele: And big sister Bronya offered to be Lisa's temporary personal assistant at the library while we're staying here in Mondstadt.

Bronya: The Bronya only wishes to learn more magic from Lisa.

As we entered inside I was greeted with a surprise. In the library was Blanc from "HyperDimension: Neptunia", Marisa Kirisame and Patchouli Knowledge from "Touhou", and Myne from "Ascendence of a Bookworm".

Myne: You're back Bronya. And hello Patrick. Hello Seele.

Patrick and Seele: Hello everyone...

Myne: When you feel like it, you should give my show a try. It's really good.

Patrick: I wasn't sure if I should give it a try but after seeing a few clips I think I will give your show a try.

Myne: Thank you.

Blanc: And are you gonna do a moment where Bronya gets angry like me from a chest insult?

Patrick: I think I will do that. I just need to think of which enemies to insult Bronya.

Marisa: I couldn't miss an opportunity like this to come here.

Patchouli: I took her along with me here.

Patrick: There's something the three of us have to do first.

The three of us went to Lisa.

Lisa: Ah, you've returned. The paperwork is done — you are now the custodians of this book.

Seele: Thank you Miss Lisa!

Bronya: Very much appreciated Miss Lisa.

Patrick: We'll be sure to never make you angry.

Bronya: We still have to read the Teyvat Traveo Guide.

Seele: Look, over there on the shelf! Isn't that the Teyvat Travel Guide? And look how many copies there are!

Lisa: Hehe... The Teyvat Travel Guide is a serial publication. It is not part of the library's formal collection.

Seele: Oh...

Lisa: Take one. Consider it your compensation for being Lisa's little helpers today. With you by my side l, my troublesome work was a little less dull than usual.

We got our copy of the Teyvat Travel Guide then we went to a table to read it just as Kiana, Mei, Aether, and Paimon arrived.

Kiana: What have you got there?

Bronya: The Teyvat Travel Guide, Idiotka.

Kiana: Don't call me that, Bratnya!

Mei: Now now. No fighting.

Patrick: The same as always. Now we can use it to know more about Teyvat.

We all laughed as did the cameos too as the camera zoomed out and the screen turned black.
