"Have you heard? The Twelfth Executive..."
"The Twelfth Executive? Is the news really true?"
On the border of the Kingdom of Snezhnaya, in a carriage heading towards Mondstadt, a male Fatui envoy nad Mikhail was whispering to a female Fatui envoy nad Lyudmila.
What they were discussing was the news that the Queen of Snezhnaya had just released.
The number of Fatui executives, which had been constant for a long ti, finally ushered in the twelfth seat.
However, the person who beca the twelfth seat was beyond everyone's expectations.
His title was [Instructor], and he was originally the instructor of the Pyro Debtors, a mber of the Fatui special forces responsible for teaching them martial arts and debt collection.
It is said that the Pyro Debtor's special ability to conceal their presence was passed down by him.
For so unknown reason, he was now promoted to the twelfth seat.
This caused quite a controversy in the Kingdom of Snezhnaya because, due to his reputation as the pyro debt handler, he was not well-regarded in Snezhnaya and even across the entire Teyvat continent.
As a result, the instructor himself faced criticism from the world.
But no matter what, no one dared to disobey the order of the queen.
The twelfth executive officer of the Fatui, the instructor, remained confused until now.
"It doesn't make sense. Isn't the executive the strongest existence in the Fatui? Why did they choose ?"
Looking at the cold ice palace behind him, which mirrored the deanor of the Queen of Snezhnaya, Bai Luo's heart was pounding.
It was not because he was moved by the queen's cold appearance, but because he was completely terrified.
Unlike the other eleven seats, he was completely unprepared and had even been forced into this position.
It was so sudden that he once thought he was dreaming. It was not until the Fatui chief executive officer, the Jester, personally placed the delusion representing his identity on him that he truly awoke to the reality.
It turns out he was really the twelfth executive officer.
He was not originally from this country, as his na suggests.
In fact, he might not even be from the Teyvat continent.
In his world, Winter Snezhnaya was just a country in a ga he played.
One winter, while passing by a river, he found a child who had fallen into the water.
He thought he was not a hero, but he couldn't bear to watch the child drown in the icy waters.
So he chose to save the child.
However, after rescuing the child to safety, he himself sank beneath the ice due to the cold and exhaustion.
When he woke up again, he was already in this magical Winter Snezhnaya country.
Because of his heroic act, he caught the attention of the Fatui and was specially included among them.
As the rumor goes, he was later appointed as the instructor of the secret organization Pyro Debt collector due to his unique ability to beco invisible.
But unlike the rumor, his invisibility ability differed from that of the Pyro Debt collector.
His ability was more special.
In short, his abilities were inherited from a hero in another ga.
His na was Kuro.
Although he was inspired by Lee Sun-sung in "Black Contract," he was sowhat different from Lee Sun-sung.
Or maybe it was just the Kuro from the ga—the Kuro that had been digitized.
To hide his special abilities, he even procured a fake Vision from a vendor. It was said to have co from Inazuma on the other side of the ocean. The craftsmanship was so realistic that even those who truly possessed a Vision couldn't easily tell the difference.
And his "Vision" was of the wind type.
By the way, he was quite tall, so he couldn't even climb a flower bed.
With this unique ability, he was selected into the spy organization and even rose to the position of instructor.
But... this wasn't the reason he beca an executive, right?
Even Tartaglia, who was the eleventh seat before him, achieved that position due to his genuine abilities, right?
What about him?
It couldn't be that the Queen had taken a fancy to him, could it?
"What are you thinking about?"
A heavy hand slapped Bai Luo's shoulder, startling him.
With his strength, few people in the entire Snezhnaya Country could approach him silently from behind.
Unless...
Looking at the other's furry cloak, Bai Luo instantly recognized his identity.
"Mr. Rooster!"
Bai Luo subconsciously saluted and addressed the other party by his code na.
That's right; he was the Fifth Executive of the Fatui - [Rooster].
"We will be colleagues in the future, so there is no need to salute. Follow ; I have a new mission for you."
"Yes!"
Bai Luo wiped the sweat from his forehead. He had not yet gotten used to his new identity.
As for Rooster, he was not very familiar with him.
Mainly because, due to his previous position, he only interacted with [Young Master] Tartaglia at most. He hadn't even t the Fifth Seat.
It seed that this person wasn't bad.
At least he wasn't like the others, staring at him as if they wanted to eat him, especially the Eleventh Seat, Tartaglia.
After the Harlequin gave him the Delusion, he had begun to challenge him in the palace.
If the Queen hadn't rescued him in ti, there might have been a "duel in front of the Emperor."
After following Rooster to a place resembling an office, the latter took out a piece of paper adorned with chicken feathers and placed it in front of Bai Luo.
"What is this?"
Bai Luo knew it was ant for him; he just didn't quite understand what it was.
"This is a letter of appointnt. From tomorrow on, you will be the envoy of Snezhnaya to Inazuma, responsible for all of Fatui affairs there."
"???" Hearing that, literal question marks appeared above Bai Luo's head.
Bai Luo initially wanted to take this so-called letter of appointnt, but after hearing Rooster's words, his heart sank.
Inazuma?! Is that a place where people even go?
He hadn't forgotten how miserable the fate of La Signora in the ga was. After they died, they were whipped by a group of travelers, and their ashes could be scattered around the continent of Teyvat.
"Lord Rooster, I don't think I'm qualified to take on such a big responsibility!"
Bai Luo knew he couldn't refuse outright. He had just taken office and couldn't turn down the first task. If he didn't provide a suitable reason, he might be criticized by the Queen of Snezhnaya.
It seed he had only two options now: either be praised by Raiden Shogun or be favored by the Queen of Snezhnaya.
"You becoming an executive officer is proof enough that you can handle this mission."
Sitting in the chair, Rooster's attitude was very firm.
Inazuma needed an Executive Officer, and he being the Instructor, must go.
"Then can I go to Mondstadt?"
Mondstadt is nice; there are cute little sisters like Klee and Diona.
Most importantly, it is safe there, and he wouldn't have to worry about being targeted by Barbatos.
"Mondstadt is the [Lady's] target. Are you sure you want to compete with her?"
Rooster did not refuse this ti but asked with a playful expression.
Although the lady's strength in the Fatui was not the strongest, it was definitely not sothing Bai Luo could provoke at this ti.
"Then... how about Liyue? Although Morax is one of the longest-lived demons, I think I can manage."
Bai Luo wouldn't refuse Liyue's offer. Who could resist the charm of Qiqi?
Although there were a few more immortals, as long as he acted carefully, there shouldn't be any major problems.
Additionally, he was originally from Liyue in this world, so going there would be a very legitimate reason.
"You have to discuss this with Childe."
Rooster laughed.
Everyone in the Fatui knew that Tartaglia wanted to fight with the newly promoted Twelfth Executive [Instructor].
If he went there now, he would be like a sheep walking into a tiger's den.
"Then..."
"According to our investigation, Inazuma is currently in a state of seclusion, and the stability of the Inazuma City is quite poor. It is one of the weakest countries among the other six and is the most suitable for you."
"In other words... I have no choice?"
"Yes."
"..."
