~6 min read 1,083 words

Clorinde: "It should be fine; it was just a temporary shock. A little rest will do. The rest is to find Mr. Su Bai."

Lisa: "Don't say that. I suddenly feel nervous."

Yoimiya: "Yes, who knows what the situation will be like after the two meet."

Sangonomiya Kokomi: "At least being able to meet is something. Just as Mr. Su Bai said about Furina, leaving without clarifying things is indeed hard to accept."

Kamisato Ayaka: "Looking at it this way, Mr. Su Bai and Furina are exactly alike. No, there are still some differences."

【By the seaside, inside a certain house.】

【"It's time to eat, my lord Pope."】

【As usual, Avelson placed the prepared meal on the table.】

【Then he went outside.】

【Su Bai sat in a chair, gazing blankly at the sea.】

【"Pope..."】

【"How many times have I said it, Avelson? I am no longer the Pope of Fontaine."】

【Su Bai came to his senses, glanced at Avelson a few times, and said: "You have followed me for over thirty years. You should consider your own future."】

【"Leave here and return to Fontaine."】

【"I have hands and feet; I won't starve to death."】

【Upon hearing this, a few traces of panic flashed in Avelson's eyes.】

【He hurriedly said: "I'm used to being by the Pope's side."】

【After a long while, Su Bai sighed.】

【"I don't know if Neuvillette can handle the follow-up issues."】

【"I told you long ago to take some people over and accuse me according to what I said."】

【"For power, you stole the research results of Lei Nei and Jacob from the Academy, pinned heinous crimes on them, and had the Shadow-Hunting Hall purge them."】

【"You deceived the Hydro Archon, gained her trust, and stole the Hydro Archon's power."】

【"Knowing what Vacher did, you pretended not to see it, causing twenty-four young people in their prime to die unnatural deaths."】

【"Just sentence them directly, saving the trouble of explaining this and that to the people."】

【"At the critical moment, you couldn't bring yourself to die or live, causing me to have no choice but to slink away in disgrace, leaving the mess to Neuvillette."】

【"In my entire life, I have never begged Neuvillette."】

【"And those twenty-four girls who died because of me..."】

【"You have followed me for so long and never disappointed me, yet in the end..."】

【Su Bai wanted to speak but stopped.】

【After waiting a long time, he finally said: "Recently, I Seems to have already nagged you several times."】

【Hearing this, Avelson hurriedly said: "The more my lord nags, the more I love to listen. If I can't hear your voice, I feel uneasy."】

【"Sigh."】

【"My time is really running out..."】

【"I know, my lord has said it several times. I know you want to persuade me to start my new life."】

【"I always remember my lord saying that because of your immortality, you have sent away many butlers. If I can send my lord away, I will be the most special butler by your side."】

【"Whenever I think of my superiority, tears fill my eyes, and I feel incredibly proud."】

【Avelson's eyes were slightly moist.】

【However, birds startled from the distant woods made Avelson's expression sink instantly.】

【"My lord, there seems to be a situation over there. I will go check it out."】

【Su Bai said nothing, merely waving his hand.】

【His eyes remained fixed on the distant sea surface.】

【The sea breeze hit his face, making Su Bai sigh with countless emotions.】

【What a wonderful night that was.】

【Moonlight spilled onto the sea surface, which was as smooth as a mirror.】

【Deep beneath the sea.】

【A girl with white and blue hair was curled up beside a seashell.】

【"This is..."】

【The young Su Bai looked at Furina, who seemed to be sleeping at the bottom of the sea.】

【"Deep-sea spirit?"】

【Su Bai widened his eyes, looking at the curled-up girl before him in disbelief.】

【Even curled up, she could not hide the charming aura on her body.】

【He approached Furina.】

【The surrounding seashells kept spitting out bubbles.】

【Surrounding Furina completely.】

【Su Bai gently poked Furina's cheek with his finger...】

【"Dead?"】

【Seeing no reaction from the other party, Su Bai felt deeply moved. Jun】

【He gently lifted the other party's chin.】

【He praised in his heart: "What a beautiful girl. Pity she has no reaction left."】

【"Sigh. Such a young girl in her prime sinking into the sea like this is truly a pity."】

"You're lucky to have met me. I'll take you back to shore and bury you."

However, just as Su Bai held Furina in his arms and wanted to take another look at her,

Furina suddenly opened her eyes.

Su Bai: "????"

Chapter 74: The Final Act of the Past Life, Su Bai and Furina

Su Bai continued to stare blankly at the sea.

The sea breeze brushing the surface of the water stirred his hair, which had already turned slightly gray.

Fortunately, the Pope was a decent person in his lifetime.

More wrinkles had appeared around his eyes, and his complexion was not as lustrous as before.

But his appearance should not have become that old.

Recalling the day he first met Furina, Su Bai inexplicably smiled.

In the distance, a dispute seemed to have broken out.

Since Avelson left, the number of startled birds rising in the distance has been even greater than before.

However, Su Bai simply did not pay any attention.

He quietly stared at the sandy beach by the sea.

There, there seemed to be two figures...

The drowning boy lay quietly in Furina's arms.

Looking at that familiar back.

Su Bai laughed self-mockingly, never having thought that the young him back then would be so startled by Furina's sudden opening of her eyes that he choked on seawater and fell unconscious.

Thinking about it now, the young and reckless him who wanted to appear slightly arrogant in front of his beloved, the first meeting was such an "awkward" scene.

"Are you human?" Furina asked curiously.

A human choking on a mouthful of water in the deep sea and still surviving?

"Nonsense, of course I'm human, and a very strong human."

"After all, I am determined to become a sailing adventurer and travel all of Teyvat."

"As for you, sleeping in the deep sea, you're probably not human."

Showing weakness?

That is something that cannot exist.

Especially in front of a girl who looks like a deep-sea elf.

He must use overwhelming masculine spirit to intimidate her.
