[Genshin Impact] My Lady the Witch, You Forgot to Put Out the Frog

Huixia was a Liyue foodie. One day, while studying the recipe book her grandmother had left her, she turned around and saw a god wriggling and screaming in her pot...

"How did you summon me?!"

The Geo Archon above, she had only wanted to make Adeptus' Temptation!

When in doubt, go to the Geo Archon. She carried the pot and the god all the way to Yujing Terrace, hoping the all-powerful Geo Archon could offer a solution.

She hadn't expected the Geo Archon to die so soon, or that carrying a god would make her a prime suspect in his assassination.

What do you know? This god is an offering she brought! The Geo Archon loves seafood! Who knows more about his tastes, you or me? Besides, isn't that Traveler who slipped away more suspicious?

After landing in jail, she decided to turn the god into a drinking snack, to comfort the Geo Archon's spirit in heaven. But before the god was cooked, the Geo Archon, who had already died, ended up lying in the pot.

He's alive! He even moves! Ahem, no, I mustn't let my filial devotion turn into something else...

The Geo Archon, struggling, pushed aside the tentacles of the god Osial. "In the interests of general rationality, I do not care for seafood."

Sorry, she wasn't a very good Geo Archon fan after all.

With the Geo Archon's help, she got a cover identity to conceal her abilities: the disciple of a powerful witch named Alice. She also got the chance to study under the Liyue Qixing.

What do you do when Hilichurls are too tough to beat?

Add Qingxin to Almond Tofu, and you'll get a bowl of sweet, silky Xiao.

Add just a little ley line sprout to Sautéed Fish, and you'll get a mysterious Albedo.

Mix the water from Springvale with water from Qingce Village, and you'll get a glass of pure Neuvillette.

She could beat back not just Hilichurls, but even Osial if he returned! Next time, she'll make it extra easy!

The pairing hasn't been decided yet. Updates will follow the rankings. This is a lighthearted, sweet slice-of-life story, and there may be some Honkai: Star Rail content later on.
