(Genshin Impact) Even Teyvat's Workers Deserve Romance!

On the continent of Teyvat, there is a group of hardworking laborers who stay far away from the thrilling stage where the protagonists shine. Whether they work for a living or for their ideals, they toil day and night, and even find time to fall in love.

[Down-and-Out Mercenary X Great General Mahamatra]

The people of the desert have always been looked down on by those from the rainforest. Because of prejudice and poverty, many cannot afford an education or medical care. Their only way out is to become mercenaries. Only a rare few with enough intelligence can change their fate.

To support his younger siblings, Novi became a mercenary. But every mercenary has blood on their hands, to some extent. Tormented by his conscience, Novi betrayed his leader, and in doing so met Cyno, the Great General Mahamatra. Cyno then kept him confined at home under the pretext of monitoring and rehabilitation.

“General Mahamatra, since I’ve earned merit while atoning for my crimes, could you please let me go?” Novi asked with a bitter smile, looking at the shackles around his ankle.

“Until I’m sure you’ve turned over a new leaf, I won’t let you leave so easily.” Cyno hid the key to the ankle cuffs. When it came to a cunning desert fox, he would only feel at ease if he kept him close.

[Ugly Duckling X Ice Rose]

Because of its past atrocities, the Lawrence Clan is unwelcome in all of Mondstadt. Its members still dream of returning to the past, and a child born into such a twisted family is bound to have a hard life.

Compared with his talented, beautiful cousin, who had the courage to defy her family, Haruo is ordinary, timid, and weak-willed. Like an ugly duckling on the lake, he spends all his energy just trying to make ends meet.

No one would have imagined that such an unwelcome ugly duckling could become involved with a cavalry captain whose future was so bright.

The man wearing an eyepatch took the hand the young man had hidden away and invited him to dance on the ice.

Even an ugly duckling deserves to dance his own dance.

[Gem Merchant X Master Architect]

Miller opened a small jewelry shop in Sumeru. In a place that valued knowledge above all else, only beautiful gemstones and the dances of the Grand Bazaar were labeled impractical and superficial.

Miller never argued with them. Someone would always appreciate the beauty of gemstones, such as the destitute architect who had been locked out because he didn't have his key.

The architect, named Kaveh, seemed especially fond of pearls, which were hard to care for and unpopular in Sumeru. He asked Miller to save a pearl brooch for him.

Years later, after saving up enough money, Kaveh bought the pearl brooch. He held it carefully in his hands and, blushing, proposed to Miller.

Miller said yes.

[Makeup Artist X Wangsheng Funeral Parlor Guest]

Doing the makeup of the deceased must be one of the jobs parents least want their children to do. Luoshui is a makeup artist who does just that, and now works for the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor.

When Luoshui first said they wanted to enter this line of work, their family strongly objected. Fortunately, Zhongli, a consultant at the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor, supported them. As a result, Zhongli became the person Luoshui admired and respected most, and Luoshui became the well-known superfan of Consultant Zhongli in Liyue Harbor.

It wasn't until the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor took on the major job of arranging a funeral for Rex Lapis that Luoshui learned the Consultant Zhongli they had always talked about was actually Rex Lapis himself.

Zhongli, whose touch was almost dangerously intimate, laced his fingers through Luoshui's. His inhuman arm held their slender waist in place, while his tail, hanging lazily down, curled around their pale thigh. He murmured suggestively against Luoshui's ear.

“What is it? Don't you like touching me?”

“Then touch me as much as you like.”
