Chapter 58 - Interlude-Ninguang

The Pendragon company, one of the most influential and powerful trading companies that has ever existed.

It's influence and power reaches every nation where it be Liyue, Inazuma, or Snezhaya.

But the reason for it's influence is it's history, tough most of it origins have been lost to time, one thing is for certain. That it has existed for a long time, perhaps even longer than the archons themselves.

But of course Ninguang knew this very well since she is the Tianquan of the Qixing.

Even before she came to power each and every deal that was made with the Pendragon company wasn't made through her and them but through the Lord of Geo and the Pendragon Company. In fact Ninguang has never seen the face of the company's leader.

That alone showed how close the relationship between them were despite the Pendragon Company mainly operating from Fontain.

And one day Ninguang was sitting in her office doing her work as usual until she saw a file that had cought her eye.

It showed information of a talented worker that had risen in rank due to her incredible skill.

Asuna Pendragon.

Telent like her is indeed rare here in Liyue but that wasn't what had cought her attention. What made her so curious about her was the last name, Pendragon.

Out of curiosity she invited her to see if she had any connection to them.

And sadly she didn't, the probability of her not knowing herself was high.

But the only one clue that she did get was her father or adoptive father. The way that Asuna talked about him and the fact that he was currently fighting a dragon in Mondstat gave her the thought that he might be related to the Pendragon company.

*Knock* *knock* *knock*

Hearing the knocking on the door, Ninguang who was looking at her papers said "come in"

The door was busted open by a panting office worker. Ninguang who was surprised by this asked "what's the matter, you look urgent?"

The panting office worker looked at Ninguang and said "the *WEEZ* the head of the Pendragon company has come to see you"

"Huh?" Ninguang herself was baffled at the sudden news.

Why now?

What does she want?

As Ninguang was asked herself such questions a new figure walked inside the room.

She had short red and white hair, and wore a company inform that had the Pendragon logo on it. A dragon eating it's tail as it when in a circle.

[A/N: Meliodas tattoo is the logo btw if you didnt get the reference]

it's an honor to meet liyues Tianquan. Sorry that we've never met face to face but I have my reason" the woman that came inside the room as if she owned it.

"Allows me to introduce myself, I am Topaz Pendragon. The founder and leader of the Pendragon company" said topaz as she twirled mora between her fingers.

Niguang who was still trying to keep up with the sudden sequence of events narrowed her eyes at Topaz.

Not because she doubts her identity but becuase-

Founder? Isn't the company really ancient. Even more ancient than Liyue.

"You could ask Rexy if my identity is true if you have any doubts" said Topaz with a confident smile.

Rexy?

Is she talking about the Lord of Geo, Rex lapis.

Ninguang started wondering how close their relationship was but shook it off her head and smiled "there is no need Miss Topaz. have a seat, I'm sure your here to talk about certain matters" spoke Ninguang as she managed to regain her composure.

Topaz walked across the room and sat on the chair infornt of Ninguang. Tension was high in the room but only for Ninguang, she didn't know why such an important person would come to her instead of Morax like usual.

"I've come to inform you that tomorrow a fleet of pirates will come. They wont do anything bad so just let them anchor their boats on the harbor"

'... Is she joking' tought Ninguang.

The leader of the worlds most renowned company is telling her to let pirates into her country. Beidou is a pirate to buy she's an exception.

"Miss topaz, I apologize but I canot let pirates into Liyue. It does not matter to me who you may be but I will not be allowing pirates into our borders" said Ninguang in a firm tone.

Topaz wasn't bothered by her answered. In fact her smile became even bigger.

Ninguang was confused by her reaction, she expected her to argue with her not smile at her.

Topaz suddenly lifted her hand showing three fingers.

As she finished counting down, Ninguangs door was opened by a woman with blue hair and horns.

"Lady Ninguang, Lord Rex Laps has sent a message-, eh?, Topaz" said Ganyu in surprise.

'They know each other?' (Ninguang)

"It's been a while hasn't it Ganyu. The last time we saw each other was at the barbecue Ban had hosted. Heh, I still remember Rex dancing on the table naked while drunk hahaha" said Topaz with a laugh.

Ganyu smiled wrily at her comment while Ninguang looked at her absolutely baffled at the information she had just given.

The Lord of Geo, the god of war... Dances in a table naked while drunk?

She couldn't even begin to imagine such a. Scene in her mind.

"Yes it has been a while, and yes... I do remember that day... Heh. A yes!, lady Ninguang Lord Morax has sent a message" said Ganyu, snapping Ninguang out of her thoughts.

"yes bring it here" Ganyu brought the letter to Ninguang and she opened it.

[To the Tianquan-

Tomorrow a few guest of mine will arrive. They go by the title of pirates but they aren't So do not worry about them causing trouble. A few other guest of mine will come but they won't be as noticable or as... Grand as the Roger and White Beard pirates. Also, do take care of my Aunt when she comes by. I am sure that she will come to your office soon

Morax-]

Ninguang who has finished reading the letter spoke "it seems like these pirates that you spoke of are aquatinted with Lord Morax *sigh* and who might this Aunt be?. Does he even have one to begin with" said Ninguang with a sigh. Today has been a rollercoaster of emotions, first she met the leader of the Pendragon Company, she letting pirates into Liyue, and now the God of stone has a supposed Aunt.

"Um lady Ninguang, shes right in front of you" spoke Ganyu with a wry smile.

"Eh?" (Niguang SFX* has stoped working)
