[Genshin Impact] Is Dating My Mentor a Good Career Move?

It all started because I dozed off during a lecture for elite students given by the Supreme Mentor, and ended up being hauled to my feet in front of everyone. I’ve worked my fingers to the bone drawing blueprints at the Akademiya for four years. I really don’t want to get expelled right before the finish line.

“I’ll do anything,” I begged. “Please, don’t expel me.”

“Fine,” the mentor said with a nod. “You said it.”

But my bad luck didn’t end there. A few days later, I lost everything I owned, got inexplicably wanted by the Akasha, and became a Fatui mole.

I haven’t done anything. I think I’m just unlucky. I mean, I’m only a pitiful, utterly ordinary student. What could anyone possibly want from me?

A timid bookworm caught up in Sumeru’s turmoil! Layla’s Great Adventure, serialized now! Come see how this sleepwalking girl overcomes every obstacle to reap a triple harvest of fame, career success, and love (not really).

...Uh. Actually, I’m not too keen on reaping that last one either. I think.

Main pairing: Alhaitham x Layla

The author is a shameless shipper. See the protagonist and supporting cast sections for details. Includes Dottore x Layla, Scaramouche x Layla, Kaveh x Layla, and so on. This is essentially a reverse harem with heroes and villains all thrown into one pot: extremely chaotic and evil, with plenty of bizarre bad endings. Please don’t read if that’s not your thing.

The setting blends real-world engineering disciplines with fantasy elements, and is partly fictional.
