Chapter 46

~6 min read 1,162 words

Furina: “No, absolutely not, these are all things from the past life.”

Paimon: “But so far, there hasn’t been a big change between the past life and this life.”

Lumine: “She must have thought that way at the time.”

Yae Miko: “Pfft, no wonder Navia would say the Hydro Archon of Fontaine is cute; seeing her psychological activities, I think she is indeed very cute.”

Nilou: “The so-called arrogance and complacency are all illusions; the inner self of the Fontaine Hydro Archon is actually a very cute girl.”

Lisa: “No wonder Mr. Su Bai would become the Pope of Fontaine; he must have seen through Furina’s essence long ago.”

[Given that Lyney hid the facts, Lumine requested a one-hour break to re-discuss Lyney’s matter in detail.]

[After the court resumed, Lumine recounted the story of Lyney entering the opera house’s tunnel and then sneaking into the core of the Oratrice through the ventilation duct.]

[Because of this, Lyney did not hear the loud noise.]

[The evidence Furina used to accuse Lyney became the most favorable proof to clear his suspicion.]

[Furthermore, the guards of the Maison Gardiennage also found Primordial Seawater, which can dissolve people, in Cowell’s suitcase.]

[Hearing for the first time that humans could be dissolved, the audience in the opera house was in an uproar.]

[Fortunately, due to the trial, this matter did not continue to spread.]

[Just as Lumine was about to win this defense, the guards ran over to tell everyone at the scene that Primordial Seawater was also found in Lyney’s luggage.]

[The situation immediately shifted again.]

[A simple Fontaine trial left people from other nations in Teyvat dumbfounded.]

[Primordial Seawater can actually dissolve people?]

Arataki Itto: “What do you mean, people can be dissolved by water?”

Sangonomiya Kokomi: “This is the first time I’ve heard of such a thing.”

Neuvillette: “.....”

Jean: “The Iudex of Fontaine should know some inside information, right?”

Tianquan Ningguang: “I remember reports saying that the great flood in Fontaine some time ago appeared suddenly; could it be related to Primordial Seawater?”

Alhaitham: “They didn’t dissolve; I remember hearing that their prophecy was that the sea level would rise and people would dissolve in the seawater when I went to Fontaine.”

Torres: “The sea level rose, but people didn’t dissolve.”

Arlecchino: “Perhaps the prophecy has changed.”

Tartaglia: “Facing this kind of question, everyone in Fontaine has become mute; is there something being hidden from everyone?”

Arlecchino: “I am from Fontaine, but I don’t know what happened in the end either; anyway, people didn’t dissolve.”

Yae Miko: “Don’t be so stingy; anyway, with the exposure of the reincarnation, I think the secrets of your Fontaine cannot be hidden, so just say it early.”

·· ······Begging for flowers··· ···

Neuvillette: “Yes, I think we should wait for the exposure of the reincarnation and see how Su Bai, as a Reincarnator, deals with the prophecy of the past life.”

Venti: “Drink...”

[Having collected all the evidence, Furina was in high spirits.]

[“The course of events is that Lyney conspired with his assistant Cowell to kidnap the girl Halsey.”]

[“But because he was afraid that the matter would be exposed, Lyney killed Cowell and put him in a wooden box, used the water tank to crush him to death, and then used Primordial Seawater to dissolve Cowell.”]

[“I suppose this is the final act.”]

[Furina, with the joy of victory, called out to Neuvillette: “Sitting there, that noble, universally respected Iudex, in your opinion, can we now...”]

[Just as Furina wanted to order Neuvillette to start the verdict, Navia’s appearance attracted everyone’s attention.]

[“Everyone, listen, listen to me for a moment.”]

[“Arguing back and forth, I think everyone must be tired of listening.”]

[“Would everyone like to see another magic trick?”]

[“A magic trick that can make the girl who has already disappeared appear in front of us again.”]

[Eh?]

[Furina was instantly stunned.]

[In her deduction, Halsey had already been harmed by Lyney, how could she appear again.]

[What does this Navia from the Spina di Rosula want to do?]

[Furina looked calmly at the wooden box already prepared on the high platform.]

[Her heart was pounding with nervousness.]

[Once Halsey really appears, then she would have truly wronged Lyney.]

[As a god, wronging others would definitely have a great impact on her, right?]

[But Navia is not the kind of person who likes to mess around.]

[“This...”]

[“I wouldn’t have really wronged a good person, would I?”]

[Furina subconsciously looked at the opposite side.]

[Su Bai was still drinking tea.]

[“Hey, is there something wrong...”]

[“You still have the mood to drink tea now?”]

[“It’s Navia.” Paimon and Lumine looked at Navia happily.]

[Navia also cast a look of confidence at the two.]

[“Lumine, Paimon, I finally know who secretly took the macarons off the table when we were eating that day.”]

[“What? Could it be...” Paimon looked at the wooden box on the stage in surprise.]

Lumine: “Tsk, I didn’t expect the past life to reach this point; that means we won.”

Diluc: “So confident?”

Paimon: “That’s right, Miss Navia is not a person who messes around; she found the missing Halsey, broke the deadlock, and finally defeated the Hydro Archon, letting Mr. Lyney see the light of day again.”

Furina: “Hey, what light of day? It makes it sound like I deliberately made things difficult for Lyney.”

Navia: “Partner, don’t make a decision too early; Mr. Su Bai hasn’t made a move yet.”

Lumine: “Even if my Mr. Su Bai has extraordinary strength, since you, partner, have already reached this point, he couldn’t possibly let Halsey disappear in front of so many people.”

Clorinde: “That makes sense.”

[“I’m counting on you, Mr. Lyney...”]

[“Perform a wonderful magic trick for everyone once again.”]

[Navia gave Lyney a thumbs up.]

[“Don’t worry, the Spina di Rosula has already arranged everything for you who are troubled.”]

[After listening to Navia’s encouragement.]

[Lyney looked at the wooden box in the center of the stage.]

[Meles and Silver stood on the left and right sides of the wooden box, nodding confidently at Lyney.]

[“Snap,” Lyney snapped his fingers.]

[“Clang, clang...” Lynette followed closely with a cute prompt sound.]

[In an instant, the spotlight covered the wooden box.]

[After the wooden box was opened, everyone was shocked.]

[Inside, there was nothing.]

[“This is...”]

[Navia was the first to be stunned: “This is impossible, this...”]

[Meles and Silver, who had reacted, were also stunned: “Where is the person?”]

[“We clearly watched her walk in, where did the person go?”]

[Paimon and Lumine were also stunned.]

[The two looked at Navia in disbelief, saying they would help them deal with Furina together, could she be an undercover agent sent by the Pope?]

[That’s not right either; they were clearly unable to defend Lyney anymore, so Navia doing this seems like gilding the lily.]

[“What on earth happened?” Lumine couldn’t stop the horror in her heart.]

[“Eh? What’s going on?”]
