Chapter 574

~9 min read 1,771 words

Lumine and Paimon were looking at the news in The Steambird.

They were with Xia Luodi.

Xia Luodi wanted to interview everyone, while Lumine and Paimon wanted to go and see everyone.

Arriving in Poisson and finding Navia, her recent situation was quite good, and there were representatives of the Fatui here.

The Fatui representative indicated not to report the Fatui in too high-profile a way; their actions were not righteous deeds, just that their interests coincided with the Spina di Rosula.

Lumine and Paimon had some changes in their view of the Fatui in Fontaine, but not much.

Xia Luodi's professional ability was very strong. After a burst of shutter sounds, she quickly took photos of Poisson and interviewed several residents at a very fast speed.

Clorinde was somewhat impressed by her speed.

Was Xia Luodi's indomitable spirit perhaps the key to persuading the Fortress of Meropide to allow her to interview?

After chatting for a while, Lumine and the others headed to the Fortress of Meropide.

Wriothesley didn't want to be the focus of the interview; Luvie and Jurieu were.

Lumine and the other walked a section of the road with Wriothesley, sharing news from above.

After Wriothesley understood, he indicated that Tartaglia's three little brothers were still waiting for Tartaglia to return.

Wriothesley planned to tell them one good news and one bad news. The good news is that Tartaglia didn't encounter too much danger, and the bad news is that the three little brothers helping with the prison break would increase their sentence.

After chatting for a while, Lumine, Paimon, and Xia Luodi arrived at the port of Poisson.

Lyney and the others were distributing magic pockets, indicating that although the water level of the seawater had recovered, things were floating everywhere, and these magic pockets could help.

Xia Luodi saw they had something to say and specifically sent everyone away.

"You don't know yet, right?"

"Actually... after Lady Furina left, Father and Lord Neuvillette discussed it, and Neuvillette 'diplomatically gifted' Fontaine's Gnosis to Father." Lyney said.

"Diplomatically gifted? Gave the Gnosis to Arlecchino?"

"Hmm, I was also surprised at first, but thinking about it carefully, there are quite a few reasons, such as apologizing for the wrong trial of Childe's case back then, thanking Childe for delaying the All-Devouring Narwhal in the Primordial Sea... and Father also helped the Fontaine authorities and Poisson quite a bit before."

After Lyney explained, Paimon said: "But even if you say so... that is the Gnosis, isn't it a bit rash?"

"Also, but I actually heard... Lord Neuvillette's attitude toward this matter had a clear change... you should ask him personally about these things."

While chatting, Arlecchino suddenly appeared.

Lumine handed Tartaglia's Vision to her, asking her to pass it to Tartaglia.

After chatting for a few sentences, Lumine and Paimon found Neuvillette.

How exactly was Fontaine saved? Paimon still had many doubts about this.

When many things really reached the moment to speak, Neuvillette was instead a bit depressed.

He told the two in detail the truth from his perspective that day: Focalors deceived the Heavenly Principles and relied on Furina's long performance to save Fontaine.

After Focalors destroyed the Hydro Archon's throne and returned the power, Neuvillette became the complete Elemental Long Wang.

The Authority of the Ancient Dragon meant absolute control over the Hydro element for Neuvillette.

"Fontaine's humans were 'incomplete humans' created by Egeria using the power of the Primordial Sea, similar to a kind of mimicry... but as long as the Primordial Sea energy in Fontaine people is still there, I can exercise the authority of the Ancient Dragon, imitating the process of the planet's initial nurturing of life, and grant them true 'blood'."

"In other words, the moment I cast the 'verdict,' Fontaine people became 'true humans,' and naturally would not be dissolved by Primordial Seawater."

After listening to Neuvillette's explanation, Lumine said: "In other words, at this moment, Fontaine people were truly 'born'."

Taking this opportunity, Lumine asked Neuvillette quite a few questions.

Regarding the verdict on Tartaglia back then, it was because of his childhood experience. He awakened the All-Devouring Narwhal by chance, but reasonably and emotionally, it shouldn't be the reason to consider Tartaglia the root cause of the disaster; it could only be considered as having some joint liability. As for the Oratrice's verdict, whether it was based on joint liability or because Focalors guessed something, it is unknown.

Lumine asked about Fontaine's future.

"Ms. Furina... the public only knows that her death penalty was not truly executed. She stepped down from the position of Hydro Archon, handed over nominal affairs to me, and left the Opera House."

"I faithfully and comprehensively relayed Focalors' last words. After listening, she didn't show sadness, nor did she express gratification... just said... she was tired and needed to rest."

"After saying this, she packed her things and moved out of the Opera House like an ordinary person moving."

Neuvillette indicated not to worry about Furina's food, clothing, housing, and transportation, etc.; he would arrange it.

Then he asked about the next stop of the journey, Natlan.

Finally, he asked about the Gnosis.

Neuvillette indicated that when he sent the two back to land from the Primordial Sea that day, he had a conversation with Skirk.

After the All-Devouring Narwhal was gone, without interference, Skirk sensed some aura on Neuvillette.

She indicated that the Gnosis is the remains of the Third Descender, and it's unlucky to carry such things on one's body; it's better to throw it away.

Neuvillette didn't know much about the Third Descender. After asking, he found that Skirk didn't know much either.

She indicated that if he is interested, she can ask her master next time and relay it to Neuvillette.

Neuvillette asked when they would meet again.

Skirk thought for a while: "Oh, speaking of which, I still have a disciple. If there is anything, let him pass the message."

【Tartaglia】: Ah?! Master only remembers me at a time like this?! (Tartaglia? Damn it)

【Skirk】: Hmm.

【Paimon】: So what exactly is the remains of the Third Descender? (Curious)

【Skirk】: Didn't I say? I don't know, and I don't know what Master is doing, can't ask now. (Spreading hands)

【Paimon】: Alright, alright. (Sighs)

After learning that the Gnosis is the remains of the Third Descender, Lumine and Paimon were very surprised.

Lumine indicated that she is the Fourth Descender, and Neuvillette also never expected this.

Thinking back and forth, everyone had no answer. Paimon felt that after Tartaglia recovers, they should go and force Tartaglia, let him ask his master and then tell them.

Finally.

"Fontaine's prophecy crisis can be considered to have truly come to an end." Paimon sighed with emotion.

"Hmm." Neuvillette nodded: "All of Focalors' efforts were also for this moment."

"But..." Paimon was a bit confused: "As a god, she finally sacrificed herself; as a human, she spent five hundred years in such torment... Is this still what she wanted?"

Neuvillette thought for a while: "The will of gods is probably just this mysterious."

"Can you understand the will of gods?" Lumine was a bit curious.

"I think not." Neuvillette shook his head and said: "It's just that occasionally I also guess, if wishes are pieces of clouds in the sky, one day they will turn into rain and fall back to the earth... Life circulates endlessly like water flow, and rain is the final answer."

"Water occasionally tilts, and rain will fall fairly."

"What is the difference between the rain that you, I, and she bathe in?"

【Witness Series Issue 1】

【Sinner's Finale】【Finished】

【Main characters of this issue receive rewards】

【Each person receives five million Mora】

【Paimon】:??? The reward is just this?! I thought it would reward me with some divine weapon!

【Kaeya】: You are living in a dream? This issue of Witness shows Fontaine's future; this is already a huge harvest. Five million Mora is not a small amount, be happy secretly!

【Navia】: The amount of information given by the video is too large, and now everything hasn't happened yet, there is still time to save it. This is the true reward of the video!

【Melus】: Young Lady's mood is much better after crying for Lady Furina before.

【Silver】: Master's injustice has been redressed, settling a major matter in Young Lady's heart, and Fontaine's prophecy crisis also has enough clues to think about response plans... The mood has brightened up! (Sunglasses)

【Gu Chen】: After watching the entire Witness series, I have to spit it out. Although I understand that everyone sending Furina to the courtroom was just wanting to know the secret she was hiding, for the sake of everyone in Fontaine, I can fully understand, but the blonde hair finally looked at Navia, looked at Lyney and the others, looked at Wriothesley, looked at Neuvillette, why didn't she go to see Furina? (Nahida? Pointing fingers)

【Kaeya】: Ms. Lumine is indeed not very kind this time, but what's more courageous is the Sect Leader, directly calling his first wife blonde hair. (Funny)

【Nahida】: It can be seen that the husband really entered the role. Although guessing the first wife is because she wanted to let Ms. Furina rest for a while before going to see her, this state of temporarily ignoring her is indeed chilling. (Lightly smiling)

(ched) 【Lumine】: If you do something wrong, you have to admit it; if you get beaten, you have to stand straight! I in the video indeed have many reasons that can be justified, but I do feel strange. With my personality, I should have gone to see Furina immediately... If I can't make up for Furina in the video, then I will make up for Furina in reality. I'll let her taste my cooking skills another day!

【Venti】: No wonder she can be the first wife; this attitude toward handling things is satisfying. (Thumbs up)

【Azhdaha】: Speaking of which, just caught a keyword, Fufu, right? (Funny)

【Kaeya】: Can the video of the Sect Leader's wives torturing the Sect Leader be posted for us to see? (Funny)

【Osial】: Sect Leader: Fufu~ my Fufu~ (Funny)

Gunnhildr.

Jean and Barbara were on the left and right sides of Gu Chen.

Although the two were smiling, Gu Chen was sweating coldly.

"I can understand your feeling sorry for Ms. Furina." Jean was quite tolerant, and she felt very sorry for Furina in the video, and even more admired the Hydro Archon Focalors.

Barbara smiled lightly: "It seems a bit intimate, but we understand you, so we won't misunderstand anything."

Seeing this, Gu Chen sighed at the sensibility of his wives.
