Finina was stunned when she saw the piece of cake in front of the fairy Ellie.
Ahhh – my favorite cake, available only sixteen slices per day for a limited time!
This is the last piece of the day!
Miss Funina, who loves desserts, felt like her heart was in cardiac arrest.
Damn it——Why do these two ruin my desserts every time they come!!!
Death penalty, must be death penalty!!!
Of course, Miss Funina seemed to be able to do nothing but wail in her heart.
But while feeling sad about her dessert, Funina was more or less fascinated by the fairy Ellie.
Although my dessert is a bit disgusting, this little guy... is so cute!
It's small, just like Melusine, and its ears make it look like a fairy or something!
Fu Fu felt like her heart was about to melt as she stared at the fairy Ai Li.
At this time-
"Lady Fininna, a trial is about to be held in the Opicle Opera House. Do you want to go and watch it?" A plump, dark-blue-haired lady wearing a French navy uniform and a boat cap approached from outside the courtyard and said to Fininna.
At the same time, her gaze fell on Jiang Qiao and the fairy Ai Li, and became a little sharp.
"...these two."
Funina is the water god of Fontaine and one of the most important core figures. Although it may be ridiculous for humans to protect gods, the Law Enforcement Court and the Shadow Chaser Court are still very strict in their security work for Funina.
What's more, this is Mo Mang Palace, the political center of Fontaine - she has never seen these two people, and she is sure that these two strange people should not have been reported or anything like that... In other words, are they smuggling or having a secret meeting?
If it weren't for Furninna's unclear attitude and the harmonious atmosphere, the chief duel agent would probably not have been so polite. Even so, she was highly wary of these two obviously unidentified people.
Furninna, who discovered this, rushed to the rescue:
"Ah, Clorinde, don't worry about it. They are my friends. You know, there are always some interactions between gods that are different from those between mortals."
"Don't take it too seriously. Clorinde is just like that. She's very serious. But don't be fooled by her cold appearance. She's actually a very good person."
Clolinde: "..."
"Ahem, by the way, I haven't introduced Clorinde to you yet. She is the chief dueling agent of the Law Enforcement Court."
"I know."
Jiang Qiao sipped her black tea calmly, very calm.
"Oh, right! Since there's something going on at the Oprykle Opera House, do you want to go with me? It's really interesting."
The relieved Funina took the initiative to invite Jiang Qiao, and her eyes revealed a certain expectation and desire - although it was a bit strange to be so intimate with someone you met for the first time, and as the water god it was also somewhat controversial, but for Funina who was used to loneliness, for five hundred years, a full five hundred years, she didn't even have anyone to vent her emotions to, and she could only hold back any pain in her heart and cry alone.
Although Jiang Qiao still couldn't let her confide the pain in her heart, and Funina didn't dare to do so, at least with the other person's presence, Funina would feel that she was not alone. Even if she still needed to devote herself to the drama of "playing the role of god", she would feel more relaxed and comforted with the other person by her side.
You don't have to do anything, just be by my side.
The lively fairy Ai Li was a little excited:
"Eh? Opera? Great, great. Fairies from the Fairyland love interesting things the most."
Jiang Qiao did not respond, but smiled slightly after feeling the eager gaze.
"If I refuse Miss Funina's invitation, it would seem a bit unromantic."
"In that case, I can't refuse your kindness."
He paid special attention to the pronunciation of "Funina".
Even in front of Clorinde, Jiang Qiao's attitude towards Funina was still - Funina.
But he also cleverly maintained the image of the God of Water that Funina had tried her best to maintain.
Although Clorinde did not hear the hidden meaning, Funina coughed twice with a calm expression:
"Ahem, let's go then."
(Yeah, he said yes!)
Privately, Funina started cheering. Of course, she also had some complaints. She walked over to Jiang Qiao with a serious expression:
"Although I understand that you admire my greatness as a god, there is no need to over-praise this glory. After all, I am not such a boastful god."
Translation: There's no need to be so embarrassed in front of others, I don't really care about it - Additional: I love to hear this, say more!
"I understand."
Led by Clorinde, Jiang Qiao and the fairy Ellie followed Funina out of the Momang Palace, which aroused cheers from many people in Fontaine.
"Funina seems to be very popular." Fairy Ellie couldn't help but sigh: "She is indeed a beloved god."
“But this place is really big and spectacular.”
The fairy Ellie following behind would float past the shop from time to time, looking very excited.
Jiang Qiao also looked at the city with a scrutinizing eye.
——Just like Liyue Harbor and Mondstadt, the ones in the game are all scaled down, and their actual size is far beyond Jiang Qiao's cognition. The same is true for Fontaine Garden.
Compared with the one in the game, the scale of this Fontaine City is at least dozens of times larger.
But the familiar ones are almost always the familiar ones.
Although Clorinde was rather serious, perhaps because she was a friend of the God of Water, or perhaps because she did not want to tarnish the reputation of Fontaine Court, she briefly acted as a tour guide and patiently explained to Jiang Qiao and the others:
"Next we will take a guided boat to Ilia Island, where the Opikle Opera House is located."
Of course - soon there came a more professional tour guide, the guide boat's tour guide, Ophini.
"Lady Fernina, Miss Clorinde."
Although she seemed a little lazy when facing most people, Ophelia became more or less serious when looking at these two important passengers.
Fu Nina, who was sitting next to Jiang Qiao, returned to her flamboyant look:
"It's okay. These two are my friends. Please introduce the beautiful scenery of Fontaine to my important guests as you would to other visitors to Fontaine."
"Ah, okay..."
"Dear passengers, the destination of this voyage is the Oprykle Opera House..."
Although he was a little reserved at first, as a senior tour guide, Ou Fini quickly got into the role and talked eloquently about the scenery and various things along the way - of course, that kind of enthusiasm was not at the same level as dealing with a certain yellow-haired idiot and UFOs.
Under the supervision of Fernina and Clorinde, Ophini used all her skills as a tour guide, which made people wonder whether she was planning to compete for the top performance this month.
Chapter 240: The Riddler is Guilty! Death Penalty!
"Fontaine is such a magical place." Looking at the many Water Cubes hanging in the sky in the distance, the fairy Ellie, who was lying on the railing beside the guide ship, sighed again and again, "Hey, I bet that if the stupid me knew the scenery here, she would definitely regret it."
"Hehe, of course. After all, Fontaine is led by me, the God of Water, God of Justice, and the Queen of Waters, Directions, Peoples, and Laws. Even among the seven kingdoms, Fontaine is the most outstanding one!"
Finina hummed, her hands folded and her posture of sitting upright looked very aristocratic and she was quite proud - in this regard, the 'acting' water god had no objection. Although she felt that playing the role of the water god was a tough job with no end in sight, the acting water god also truly loved this land and the people who lived on this land.
It is precisely because of this that she was able to continue to persevere.
Of course, despite her pride, Funina couldn't hide her curiosity:
"By the way, who am I, stupid?"
"I am stupid, I am stupid."
The innocent fairy Ellie showed her superb skills in nonsense literature, which made Funina speechless - who knows who the stupid me you are talking about is?
I hate the riddle man's beating around the bush! I've decided to add a new rule to the laws of Fontaine... beating around the bush is a crime! Talking nonsense is also a crime! And it's a capital crime!!!
Although this charge may be somewhat absurd, the people of Fontaine must have gotten used to it. After all, their god is an 'absurd god'.
"Dear passengers, this flight is about to arrive at Ilia Island."
"Oh, that's the Oprykle Opera House. It looks so spectacular!"
"Hehe~ Are you surprised? I was the one who proposed to build this!" Funina was even more proud, and she couldn't hide the smile on her face.
She didn't have much to be proud of in this difficult job, except for the Opéracle Opera House and the invitation of Villette to serve as the supreme judge of Fontaine.
Leaving aside the latter, the former, the Opécle Opera House, is quite popular among the people of Fontainebleau and is almost always full every time it opens.
The reason why her reputation as the goddess of water is relatively stable, in addition to her exaggerated performances over the years, is more because the Opiclay Opera House has indeed brought huge spiritual wealth to the people of Fontaine.
"Hey, what do you think?" Funina looked at Jiang Qiao beside her, looking quite concerned.
Why does this guy feel like Villette - of course, it's nothing. I have the experience of dealing with Villette, so it won't matter if there is another one. What makes Funina most unhappy is that Jiang Qiao has no comments or opinions on the scenery of Fontainebleau or even the Opiclay Opera House. Funina, who cares about this "only confidant", naturally wants to get some opinions... Well, it would be even better if it's praise!
"It's spectacular. This opera house has extraordinary significance both in terms of economic benefits and spiritual wealth." Jiang Qiao, who saw through his thoughts, smiled and gave a relatively objective evaluation - of course, Funina was bewildered by this evaluation. Although she had been in power for five hundred years, in fact, she, the water goddess, was basically a half-hands-off boss in the Momang Palace. Many things were handled by the people below or even by Villette.
As for things like economy, spiritual wealth and the like... Ababa Ababa.
Of course - if Jiang Qiao were to make a more concise assessment of this building, it would probably be... a spectacle.
“If this thing had not been built by misappropriating land, it would have been more meaningful.”
"cough cough..."
When Funina heard this, she started coughing, looking around with embarrassment, as if trying to avoid the question.
——Although the Oprykle Opera House was indeed her masterpiece, the construction of this building was indeed accompanied by certain problems.
For example, this was originally supposed to be the new location for the School of Natural Philosophy to relocate, but she turned it into this opera house with a wave of her hand.
Although it was not a wrong decision in terms of the result, it did make this ridiculous water god look a little...
"Don't worry about it. This building is still of great significance to Fontaine as a whole."
After all - in the eyes of most people, an entertainment facility for recreation is indeed more popular than a research facility, isn't it?
What's more, the responsibility of this opera house is not just to stage farces.
"We've arrived."
Clorinde spoke, then got off the boat first, followed by the others.
There is no doubt that Funina is very popular. Even if she just shows up briefly, the people of Fontaine will refuse to come. Fortunately, the Law Enforcement Court and the Shadow Chasing Court have rich experience in such situations and have arranged a security team to deal with this situation.
"Hey, there are so many coins in this fountain." Fairy Ellie curiously floated to the fountain in front of the Opikle Opera House and looked at the stone tablet on it, "Lu...Jing...Fountain."
"This is the place where all the waters of Fontaine converge. All the water flows will eventually converge here. According to the ancient tradition of Fontaine, newlyweds will throw coins in front of the Dew Spring to pray for a happy and fulfilling life."
"What about Vash?"
Jiang Qiao stopped when he heard this.
"Vashie? What Vashie?!" Funina was a little surprised.
"It's just a rat that specializes in attacking innocent girls."
Fairy Ai Li did not doubt what Jiang Qiao said, but instead shouted indignantly:
"Ah? Attacking beautiful girls? This mouse is really bad."
"Um, excuse me!"
A loud and carefree voice sounded in her ears. Jiang Qiao, who was not unfamiliar with the voice, fixed her eyes and saw a lady in gorgeous clothes with beautiful yellow wavy hair, holding a black parasol with a yellow lining and walking towards her.
"The eldest daughter of the Rose Thorn Society?" Funina glanced at her, somewhat surprised.
She is quite close to the people and is familiar with most people in Fontaine - at least the main forces. After all, the intelligence department under her is not a decoration, especially the Thorn Rose Society has done many good things in Baisong Town.
"Lady Furninna, I'm sorry, I'm not looking for you."
"Huh——?" Furninna widened her eyes, a look of disbelief on her face.
Although she believes that she may not be associated with the word "majesty" in the eyes of the people of Fontaine, you are going too far!
Many people want to see me on weekdays but they don’t have the chance!
"Ahem, how dare you! Are you disrespecting the gods? It is a grave sin to disrespect the water gods!"
In order to maintain her reputation as the God of Water, the somewhat dissatisfied Finina immediately pretended to be angry.
But Sister Huangdou——Navia was not afraid at all, and she argued very calmly:
"Lady Funina, Fontaine should not advocate being convicted for speech, right? Although there are indeed crimes like 'publicly insulting God', I think what I just said should not constitute a crime, right?"
"Or is it that the Water God is actually a petty god who wants to punish me just because he is unhappy? If that's the case, I admit defeat."
After hearing this, Funina suddenly felt a little uncomfortable...
