《Winter Wonderland》The Merchant from the Depths: part 30

"Y/n dear, are you awake?" a deep voice asked.
"h-huh?" Y/n questioned, still not yet awake in the Planum Libra.
'That doesn't sound like Zadkiel?' she questioned. 'No...I know that voice!'
Y/n opened her eyes to come face-to-face with a certain dragon god of contracts. "F-father Morax?!" she exclaimed.
Morax, also known as Rex Lapis and Zhongli, smiled toward Y/n. He was in his god form, which consist of him wearing traditional Liyue clothing. Golden Ryuu horns and tail were out, as his golden amber eyes shined a bit. "Hello, little one" he greeted
Y/n stood up. "Father, what are you doing here? Where is Aunty?" she asked. Morax isn't actually Y/n's biological dad if you thought. Remember that Y/n's real father died 500 years ago? Morax knew how much of an impact the cataclysm had on the Tsaritsa and her daughter, so he willingly form a contract between Y/n since when she lost her twin sister and father, she didn't know who to trust. The Contract was to assure Y/n that there wasn't anything to be afraid of.
In the contract, Morax would take in Y/n, and help her heal. He helped teach her about geology which helped a lot for her to identify scams that involved stones. Morax became a father figure to Y/n as she grew and even helped her change her form to that of a chimera of a half dragon, half Phoenix. He was there during the day the king and queen announced Malleus's engagement from Y/n since they found each other.
"Zadkiel is currently resting, so she left me in charge of taking care of you for now, especially about the dilemma she foresaw," Morax said before letting out a growl, crossing his arms. "That Azul boy is making unfair contracts that even I don't do. If he did this in Liyue, he sure would face the wrath of the rock"
Y/n would let out a chuckle. "I see oh-so-great God of Contracts. What do you suggest we do?" she asked.
Morax was thinking about that. "It's far too early to disclose any plans for now. After all, Zadkiel told me to only form a battle strategy if the stars warn me about an incoming overblot. But I promise you that you will let order guide your soulmate"
"S-soulmate?! Ah..." Y/n blushed a bit, feeling a sudden warmth at the back of her neck. Morax went around to look at it. "It seems you have his soul mark. I was indeed correct. No wonder he desires to have you for himself. But you know that can't happen. He has to share and follow his fate that already has been written"

"I see...No wonder he put me up as Collateral for if Yuu doesn't complete the contract" Y/n mumbled.
Morax seemed to hear as he perked an eyebrow. "He did what...?" he asked. Oh shit, he pissed.
"C-calm down! Yuuna will have some help in fulfilling her end of the contract. Plus, it isn't that hard~" Y/n said with a cheeky grin.
Morax let out a sigh. "That's because you can breathe underwater and on land" he remained her.
"Oh..." I can't believe y/n forgot.
"It's alright, we'll think of something. Plus, they have me to help" Y/n said.
"I see. I believe that human girl will complete her end of the contract"
"Is that your gut feeling?" Y/n asked.
"Yes" Morax smiled.
Then the planum Libra began to lighten. Y/n's body was waking up. "I see it's time to wake up. I'll see you another time, father?"
Morax would raffled her hair. "Of course"
"Right. See you soon, Father" Y/n hugged Morax in a father-daughter affection. Hah, get family-zoned readers.
"Mhm. Goodbye, little one" he waved as Y/n was lifted up in the air, as white vines pulled her up to the white void to wake up.
"H-huh?" Yuuna would look around, trying to see around her. "It's so dark..."
"Come in, come in, my child" a voice called out. She saw a red-hair mermaid swim pass her, towards the unknown voice. "You're here because you have a thing for this human."
Yuuna took this chance to follow the little mermaid, towards the bright light. "Now, here's the deal" the light dimmed down to reveal the Sea Witch of the great eight.
"h-huh?" Yuuna gasped.
"I will make you a potion that will turn you into a human for three days. Got it? Three days" the Sea Witch said. "Before the sun sets on the third day, you've got to get dear ol' princey to fall in love with you. Oh- and there is one more thing. We haven't discussed the subject of payment" she says, her eals swimming to her with a golden contract.
"What I want from you is...your voice. Now go ahead and sign the scroll!" the Sea Witch said. "I'll help this poor, unfortunate soul!"
Yuuna wanted to stop the mermaid from signing the scroll, but octopus tentacles wrapped around Yuuna to stop her. "Please let me go! S-stop it!" Yuuna pleaded. The water around her began to blacken from the ink as the mermaid signed the contract.
"No can do," a voice said. It sounded, young. "who are you?" Yuuna stuttered.
"If you know who I am, you will only look at me in disgust....like the others did! No....no, no, no, NO!" the voice snapped.

A tentacle suddenly wrapped around Yuuna's neck, attempting to choke her. But since this is a dream, Yuuna is unharmed. "YOU! I can't let you go...you have to stay here...HERE. In that way...SHE can be all mine! I won't let you take her way from me!" the voice pleaded.
"W-what do you mean? Who is this SHE your talking- ack!" Yuuna yelped when the tentacle tighten.
"You know exactly who SHE is! My beloved angelfish...She has to stay by my side...she HAS TOO. I'm not ready for her to leave! Not yet! I need to be better...much greater than MY RIVALS. Then you will be all MINE"
"Ah~ My beloved angelfish...All mine! She will belong to me ME ONLY" the voice laughed.
"No matter what happens....no matter what I look like, no matter who I have to get rid of....SHE IS MINE"
"ah!" Yuuna screamed in fear
She then saw the a male silhouette, as their hair became visible.
"A-Azul....?!" she choked out. It was Azul, but him when he was younger.
"SHE BELONGS TO ME!" he screamed as the dream immediately came to an end.
Savanaclaw Dorm- Leona's Room
Yuuna woke with a gasp for air. Making the person next to Yuuna flinch a bit.
"Yuu-chan? Did you have another dream?" it was Y/n.
Grim and Leona were still sleeping, which was a little evident from their snores.
"M-mhm...B-but, I'm glad I'm awake now" Yuuna smiled, hugging Y/n. "Alright.." Y/n mumbled. She wondered what caused Yuuna to be in so much fright. She should've had a dream of Ursala and Ariel about sighing a contract. So, what was scary?
Then there was a knock on the door. "Heya, G'morning!" Ruggie shouted, peeking his head into the room. "Leona, it's time to get up! Oh, I see you're already awake, Y/n" he grinned.
"mhm. I woke up earlier and Yuuna did just now" Y/n tells him.
"Alright" Ruggie then walked inside of the room. "Em and at 'em, Grim. Let's get those mangy faces washed"
"Mrah? Morning already?" Grim grumbling, rubbing his eye. "W-wait, it's barely six!" he yelped when he looked at Y/n's phone.
"We do morning Spelldrive training here at Savanaclaw. Since you're part of the dorm for the next few days, you'll be joining us and Y/n will help train us, after all, she is the famous Camelius" Ruggie tells them. Ruggie walks towards Y/n and helps her out of bed.
"Muh? Morning training?" asked Grim
"Yup. We're been at it ever since the last Spelldrive tournament." Ruggie said, trying to help Y/n get out of Leona's grasp who like held on.
"Mrrrgh, lay off...zzzz" Leona growled before Ruggie lost grip of Y/n and dropped her. Her upper body is off the bed, and her lower body is still being held onto Leona, as he rubbed his face on her butt, thinking it was her chest.
Y/n blushed madly, keeping herself from moaning since his hot breath was making her tail ticklish.
"Leona! Don't go back to sleep!" Ruggie yelped when he lost grip of Y/n. He blushed at the awkward position Y/n was in. Ruggie let out an annoyed huff as he grabbed Leona by the leg and with all of his strength, he ranked the lion off the bed, off of Y/n butt.
"Whoa. Ruggie's draggin' his own boss outta bed feet-first" Grim's jaw dropped as the Amaryllis trio watched as Leona fell from the bed. "Mrrrf...Zzz" he fell back asleep on the floor.
"And he'll still not waking up. Wow," Yuuna said in amazement.
"That goes to show how tough it is to get him out of bed in the morning" Y/n sighed.
She then walked to a struggling Ruggie. "Ruggie, cover Yuuna's eyes, and Grim, hide behind her. This is gonna get ugly" she warned.
"Huh? What are you gonna do?" Ruggie asked.
"Oh, just this" Y/n said, going on top of Leona, and cutting off his oxygen by placing her chest over his face.
Ruggie's eyes widen in shock, covering Yuuna's eyes as Grim didn't see a thing either.
Soon, Leona shot open his eyes, waking up from the lack of oxygen. "Who dare put a- oh..." Leona blushed when he saw Y/n. He thought someone put a pillow on his face since it was soft, but no. It was Y/n
"Come on, kitty," Y/n smirked mischievously. "time to get up" Y/n teased as she moved her body in a seductive way, but was stopped when Ruggie picked her up, stopping her from making any more embarrassing moves.
"Okay, that's enough!" Ruggie shouted.
Y/n had a funny look on her face as she got to her feet again.
Leona was quiet, before hiding his blush on what his 'pillows' were. "Tch, damn Ruggie..." he muttered.
Ruggie then helped Y/n and Yuuna into the bathroom that was connected to Leona's room for privacy. "Go, go. Get ready! Use Magic if you have to"
"Hey" Leona growled when Ruggie shut the bathroom door. "Where the hell is my morning kiss you promised me!?"
Time until Azul's contract expires: Three days
