Supreme Bishop of Fontaine

After a moment of silence, Ji Zi chose to ignore the two men again and continued her introduction. "Alright, our 1.5 version has more content than just this. There's also a strange creature that has traveled from the distant Land of Water, but has accidentally caused a major crisis for Mondstadt's wine industry. What does the Supreme Bishop think of this strange creature? It comes from Fontaine."

Ji Zi asked in a very malicious tone, "You've been causing us trouble here, now it's our turn to make things difficult for you."

"It looks like a pure water elf. Players should be familiar with it. It's a member of the same family as Lottia."

Ji Zi raised her eyebrows in surprise, but it was not too surprising. After all, players should still have a deep impression of the pure water elf Lodia. For most players who are not well trained, fighting Lodia is a torture, and this strange creature looks like a smaller version of Lodia.

So, Jizi just continued to ask: "It's strange, why did this pure water elf come to Mondstadt?"

"That's not strange. He should be looking for Lottia."

Ye calmly said:

"Lottia is very famous among the pure water elves, considered the strongest. After Lady Finina inherited the throne of the Water Goddess, Lotia defected from Fontaine due to dissatisfaction with Lady Finina and never returned. It's not impossible that a pure water elf who admired her would travel thousands of miles to find her."

Jizi: "???"

Yulandel: “???”

Alicia: "???"

Fu Xuan: “???”

Kiana: “???”

"Mei, did you tell him about this setting when you gave him the script?"

"No, in order to prevent the insider, I definitely won't say anything that shouldn't be said!"

"Then how did he know?"

"I do not know?"

While the girls were puzzled, Ye continued to speak.

"The pure water elves are actually followers of the previous water goddess, Egolia. Lady Finina was also a member of the pure water elves before she inherited the throne of the water god. Therefore, this strange creature can be said to be of the same clan as Lady Finina. Players, please treat her gently."

"Stop, stop, stop, stop right now!!"

Fu Xuan couldn't help but shout.

"Hurry up and inform Ji Zi to stop him and end the live broadcast! I swear, I will never invite him to a live broadcast again no matter what!"

How much work will it give us if we let him do a live broadcast?!

The previous water goddess was called Egolia? Don't just pick a name we haven't decided on yet, okay?

Before becoming a god, Furninna was a pure water spirit? How come we didn't know that?

Live broadcast accident! Major live broadcast accident!

Fu Xuan regretted it so much that his intestines turned green.

This was a preview livestream, so it's okay to fluff the plot a bit in this kind of livestream, like calling it a candy when it's clearly a knife—that's a minor issue—but in a strict setting, what you say is the truth! If you go back on your word, you'll probably get slammed by the fans!

Since he said in such a certain tone that the first water god was Egolia, then this must be the only name that can be used from now on!

If he said in such a certain tone that Funina was a pure water elf before she became a god, then it must be true!

But miHoYo hasn’t decided on this setting yet, okay!

The voice actor of this Supreme Bishop is simply...

"That's exactly what I thought!" Kiana said in surprise, "I just decided to set it up this way. How did he know?"

"?????"

Everyone looked at Kiana with a puzzled look on their faces.

Then the next moment, everyone suddenly calmed down.

Oh, by the way, I almost forgot, we never expected the game Genshin Impact to be able to update to Fontaine without the plot collapsing. Now we just let the voice actors help Kiana decide on several settings for the Fontaine version. It’s a trivial matter!

It’s okay. The settings of Fontaine are already a mess, so there’s no need to worry about it getting even messier.

Let's take it one step at a time. Maybe in the future Kiana will be able to connect these messy settings together.

Believe in miracles.

With the girls in such a calm state of mind, the live broadcast finally came to an end little by little and then ended.

Then, the four people who were ending the live broadcast also began to say goodbye to each other.

Although it has been turned off, the microphones of the four people have not been turned off. In short, if they speak at this time, no audience will hear them.

So, Alicia finally asked the mysterious man who was not here: "Before we say goodbye, can I ask you a question?"

"what is the problem?"

Alicia asked in a very serious tone: "Could it be... that you are actually Ye?"

"Yeah, exactly."

"That's it."

Alicia nodded and said with a smile:

"I look forward to meeting you one day."

Chapter 71 Hearth House

"Your Excellency the Supreme Bishop, you really know how to enjoy yourself."

Charlotte sat on the sofa and looked back and forth at the Supreme Bishop's exclusive cell. She couldn't help but want to take a picture of the scene and write a comment.

"How can this be a prison cell? It's basically a luxury hotel."

The room was very big, the bed was not small, and it was a soft bed. There was a bookshelf, a sofa, a coffee table, a computer, a TV... it had everything, but it didn't look like a prison cell at all.

Although Melo Petersburg does not lock prisoners in a room and prohibit them from leaving at will like ordinary cells, it does not decorate the prisoners' rooms so well.

Of course, considering the identity of the Supreme Bishop, Charlotte was not too surprised by this.

Even if he is imprisoned, the Supreme Bishop is still the Supreme Bishop and it is impossible for him to be treated the same as other prisoners. What's more, he was not imprisoned normally and will be released in a few days.

"You can live here if you like. I don't mind sharing your bed."

"I mind!"

Charlotte's face flushed immediately.

The Supreme Bishop's joke reminded her of several dreams she had had before, and suddenly she felt the atmosphere was a little ambiguous.

Especially I had a dream last night.

Charlotte immediately calmed down and changed the subject: "Your Excellency, I'm here to press for the manuscript. I forgot about this during the previous interview because of an emergency."

"Requesting for manuscript?"

"The Steambird Newspaper Office is nearly overwhelmed by letters from readers."

Oh yes, after hearing what Charlotte said, Ye suddenly remembered that in order to accelerate the development of Fontaine's entertainment industry and to make some pocket money, he had been a plagiarist for several years.

Novels, movies, comics, animation...all walks of life have been copied.

However, as the entertainment industry developed, Ye copied less and less.

After all, his time was still very precious, and there was no system that could enhance his strength by copying, so he became a plagiarist basically just out of some bad taste of wanting to preach, and he had no intention of continuing it.

Therefore, facing Charlotte's question, Ye calmly continued to play the Genshin Impact, using Astraea to weakly kill the opposite Fu Fu, and said lightly: "Well, please help me issue a statement about the half-cut. I'm not interested in that now."

"Your Excellency the Supreme Bishop, I advise you not to do this."

Charlotte's face suddenly filled with smiles, and she said murderously:

"If our Steambird newspaper gets exposed by readers, I'll expose you first—report in the newspaper that you've remained unmarried for five hundred years because you love men, and that Lady Finina turned her love for you into hatred because of that, and has you imprisoned time and again."

Ye shuddered suddenly: "Is it so serious?"

"It is indeed that serious, Your Excellency the Supreme Bishop."

Ye glanced at Charlotte's bright smile that seemed to want to stab him, then immediately collected his thoughts and nodded: "I understand, I will continue writing. Is there anything else?"

Forget it. I have fast hands and it won’t take too much time anyway, so I’d better avoid getting stabbed.

Charlotte dropped her smile and glanced at the door.

Ye Dandan said: "There is no one outside."

Charlotte then spoke, "Your Excellency, Hearth House has executed Krohas. What should be done with his property? Should evidence of Krohas's crimes be handed over to the Court of Justice for confiscation?"

"The Hearth House is quite short of money right now. Let Alecino handle this for now. Once Alecino is done, we can submit the evidence to the Court of Justice."

Alechino, whose real name is Peruvian, is the fourth executive officer of the Fatui and also a spy planted by Ye among the Fatui.

Of course, although she is called a spy, the Ice Queen actually knows all about it and doesn't care.

In reality, no one can tell whether Alecino is a spy of the Night or a spy of the Ice Queen, because she will obey orders from both sides.

Alechino will perform the duties as an executive assigned to her by the Ice Queen, and will also carry out the tasks assigned to her by Night, without any compromise.

More than four hundred years ago, Ye gradually took the Hearth House organization into his own hands, making it an official organization that was neither recognized nor recorded by the Fontainebleau officials.

This organization has three responsibilities.

The first duty is to act as a spy inserted into the Fatui. The head of each generation of Hearth House will become the executive officer of the Fatui. Even after Hearth House was controlled by Night, this did not change. The Ice Queen, knowing this very well, still let each generation of head of Hearth House continue to serve as the executive officer.

The second responsibility is to serve as an orphanage. This is the official identity of Hearth House, but it is also the responsibility that Ye requires Hearth House to strictly abide by. The behavior of treating orphans completely as tools is completely prohibited by Ye. Under his leadership, Hearth House has become a real orphanage spread across the world. Adopting orphans, protecting and teaching homeless children to grow up is the most important responsibility of Hearth House.

As for the final responsibility number three… that is to serve as an executioner agency that is not officially recognized by Fontainebleau.

Although Hearth House has become a genuine orphanage for orphans after being controlled by Night, Night has not completely shed the dark color of Hearth House.

On a voluntary basis, the dean of each generation of Hearth House would select some children to teach them martial arts and other skills that normal children should not learn. Sometimes Ye would even take time out to teach them personally. When those children grew up, they would become Fontaine's secret executioners.

Yes, the executioner.

There is the death penalty in Fontaine...but Fukalos would never sentence any human being to death.

Her kindness towards people is basically the same as Nashida's. No matter how angry Nashida was, she never sentenced the idiots in the Decree House to death. The same was true for Fucaros. Even for an unforgivable scum like Vash, she would not sentence him to death.

Such a god appreciates humanity's kindness and doesn't object, after all, that's the nature of divinity - but even if he doesn't object, it's also normal for him to disagree, right?

Some people simply deserve to die. Is it right to allow such deserving people to continue living in Mellow Petersburg, imprisoned but able to live out their lives in peace? Wouldn't this make more people more daring to commit crimes?

It was with this idea in mind that Ye gradually took control of Hearth House and made Hearth House serve as the executioner who sentenced unforgivable criminals to death before they even went to court.

This executioner organization is naturally not officially recognized, and no one knows the connection between this organization and the Fontaine official. Even if many people have guessed something, they will not be foolish enough to make it public. At least on the surface, no one can find out what the relationship is between the Hearth House and Night.

As for why Charlotte knew about this and took on the role of delivering the news... Does anyone think that Ye Hui doesn't understand the importance of the news media?

As the largest newspaper in Fontaine, the boss behind the Steambird Newspaper is Ye. Under Ye's leadership, the Steambird Newspaper is not just a newspaper, but also performs various other duties.

Charlotte's part-time job is to act as the middleman between the House of Night and Hearth.

Charlotte usually tells Hearth House the tasks assigned by Night, and Charlotte usually reports the results of Hearth House to Night.

After all, Charlotte has the Eye of God, so it would be more reassuring to let her take on this responsibility.

Fortunately, although Charlotte likes to report the truth, she is not the kind of person who is so stubborn as to only report the truth. She agrees with Ye's ideas, so she has always performed the duties assigned to her very well.

As for Alechino... she was originally a spy planted in the Hearth House by the Clown of the Fatui.

However, Ye eventually made her the new head of Hearth House and still let her monitor the Fatui as his spy.

And Alechino fully accepted this positioning and became a double agent.

So... well, no matter what, Ye believed her.

Therefore, the next task can be given to her.

"Charlotte, after you're released from prison, help me give Alechino a new mission..."

Chapter 72 Eightfold Divine Son

When Ye finally came out of Melo Petersburg after spending the holiday, the story of Genshin Impact version 1.5 was finally officially launched.

While the players were happily celebrating the Wind Flower Festival, he finally started working again, came to Inazuma, and submitted a light novel to Yaedo.

Charlotte's urging for more updates gave Ye Ling an inspiration, and he immediately found a way to get closer to the fox.

It is not long before the travelers set foot on Inazuma, and preparations for the night must begin.

So, now it’s time to meet the Eightfold Son of God.
