Mr. Pantalone has no crazy plans today.

And that's exactly the case. He doesn't care what others say, since he doesn't intend to pretend to be anything special. As long as those words don't come out of his own mouth, that's fine.

After mocking Pantalone, Rosalyn got back to business.

"Very well, for the sake of Her Majesty's great cause and ideals, I will agree to this matter. If it can cause losses to Mondstadt, that would be even better. What do you want me to do?"

Pantalone didn't understand why the "lady" had suddenly changed her attitude.

However, he vaguely realized that the reason why "Lady" changed her attitude was perhaps because he had mentioned that all of this was part of a plan prepared for the Queen's great cause.

In a sense, Rosalind is definitely the most steadfast and loyal person among all the Fools' Executors, second only to Piero the "clown," in her unwavering commitment to the great cause of defying the laws of nature.

If it is for the sake of Her Majesty the Empress's great cause, she will carry out this mission without hesitation.

Pantalone, having regained his composure, recounted to Rosalind the matter he had asked her to do.

"You don't need to worry too much about this. I've already made all the arrangements in Mondstadt. You can contact the Fatui's delegation in Mondstadt for details."

"The matter I'm asking of you is very simple. I hope that if you make any moves with the Knights of Favonius in Mondstadt, you can help deal with the people there and ensure that everything goes according to plan."

"Once this plan succeeds, most of Mondstadt's economic power will fall into the hands of Zhidong, which will help me obtain more funds and expand the influence of the Northern Bank."

"As the influence of the Northern Bank expands, Zhi Dong will also receive more funds and resources to invest in the great cause of fighting against the laws of nature."

"It seems you've prepared quite thoroughly."

Rosalyn glanced at it and said indifferently.

"I have a general understanding of the situation. Leave this to me."

Pantalone breathed a sigh of relief after Rosalind agreed to the request.

Fortunately, everything went smoothly. If the "lady" hadn't agreed to his request, he would have had to find another way.

P.S.: I was too tired yesterday, so I took a nap. When I woke up, it was already two or three in the morning, so I didn't write the third update.

By the way, here's a little-known fact: while researching Italian comedy, I discovered that La Signora was Pantalone's wife and frequently cheated on him.

Also, there's no need to connect this to Genshin Impact; it's just sharing some little-known facts.

Chapter 31 Pantalone is destined for defeat

Scaramucci, nicknamed "Skirmisher," is an utterly hollow doll.

He often felt empty, and only his heart, which was supposedly filled with resentment and suffering, could make him feel fulfilled.

For Scaramucci, who is a "scattered soldier," good and evil are just rumors of the masses, useless and noisy, but once this "heart" is dug out, he can feel nothing at all.

But this was not what he craved, compared to something so dull.

He craves interesting things because they make him feel more fulfilled. His liking for interesting things tends to have a negative side, and what those interesting things actually are is unimportant to Scaramucci.

Over the course of hundreds of years, he had grown weary of it.

But at that moment, Scaramucci suddenly discovered an interesting fellow, one of his colleagues, an executive named "The Rich Man" Pantalone.

The guy's unusual behavior piqued Scaramucci's interest in observing him.

Without a doubt, compared to the dull personalities of his other executive colleagues, that man was clearly much more interesting.

But Scaramucci, who was always chasing after interesting things, clearly wanted to see something even more interesting. He wanted to see things go in a negative direction, so when his "servant" Arecino came to invite him, he readily agreed and joined Arecino's camp.

It wasn't that he wanted to help Arecino; he simply wanted to know what interesting developments he could see if he disrupted and interfered with the man's plans.

Unfortunately, everything Arecino did failed to thwart that guy's plan.

Or rather, it was a success.

But it was only half successful.

Unsurprisingly, Pantalone then proposed a new plan.

This time, his plan failed to be seen through by Arecino, so after Arecino said she couldn't understand the plan, Scaramucci readily accepted the challenge.

He wanted to see how the guy would react if his plan went wrong.

For Scaramucci, whose favorite pastime is observing human fear and helplessness, this is a very interesting thing.

So after their last parting, Scaramucci gathered a lot of intelligence and tried to guess and think about the deeper meaning behind the Pantalone Plan.

However, perhaps Pantalone was too well hidden, because Scaramucci, after studying for a long time, could not find a single clue.

In order to obtain further intelligence, he secretly instigated a riot and a demonstration.

After a series of maneuvers, Scaramucci successfully obtained the information he wanted, and after combining the information he possessed and collected, he believed that he had completely found and exposed Pantalone's plan.

Now, all he needs to do is find the most crucial piece of the puzzle.

Then he could be completely certain of the plan that Pantalone was secretly devising.

"Those people you secretly instigated to protest, 'Soldier,' have all been arrested by 'Rich Man' in the name of resisting the Winter Queen's grand plan..."

A fool's debt collector, his face contorted with fear and cowardice, stared timidly at the "scattered soldiers" before him.
