Of course not!

Furina is very clear on this point.

Such an excuse is passable for dealing with ordinary people in Fontaine.

But it is absolutely impossible to deal with existences like Luo Feng and Neuvillette.

Furina quietly glanced at Neuvillette, who was standing to the side, and seeing that he did not show any doubt, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Thank goodness, I didn't let the excuse slip out earlier.

But why would Luo Feng say my tears are Hydro elements?

He should be able to tell that these are just ordinary tears, right?

While feeling fortunate, Furina looked with some confusion at the person who was currently smiling at her.

Furina's eyes slowly widened, and she looked at Luo Feng in surprise.

What to do, what to do, Feng must have seen through me a long time ago.

He must know that I am not the real Hydro Archon.

C-could it be that he said I am not suited for "Trailblaze" because he thinks I lied to him?

Furina trembled nervously, her chest rising and falling continuously.

Seeing that Furina seemed overly nervous, as if her eyes had even turned into mosquito-coil shapes, Luo Feng raised his hand and flicked her forehead.

"O-ouch?!"

Furina covered her forehead and looked at Luo Feng with a grievance.

"At least you've woken up, haven't you?"

Luo Feng smiled, then raised both hands to pat Furina's shoulders, saying with a serious expression:

"Don't think too much; I only said that what suits you best is not 'Trailblaze'."

"It doesn't mean I'm rejecting your idea of becoming a navigator."

"If fate allows, you can still become a navigator for a route from Fontaine to somewhere in the universe."

"S-so that's it!" Furina patted her chest and took a few deep breaths.

Although she was still nervous, after Luo Feng said that, Furina at least felt her breathing had become easier.

"Mr. Luo Feng believes that Ms. Furina is not best suited for 'Trailblaze', then which Path do you think suits her best?"

At this moment, Neuvillette walked over holding a file.

Well done!

Furina waved her fist forcefully in her heart and gave Neuvillette an admiring look.

How could she not be concerned and curious about Luo Feng's previous words?

It was just that she didn't know how to ask earlier.

"As for that..." Luo Feng gave Furina a meaningful look:

"Do you think Preservation suits you?"

"P-Preservation?!" Furina placed her hands by her mouth, a look of surprise appearing on her face.

"Preservation?"

Neuvillette looked at Furina with a sense of loss.

Speaking of the Path of Preservation, Neuvillette immediately thought of Morax, who had previously used the power of Preservation to protect Liyue from the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles.

And Morax being able to obtain the Path of Preservation was, on one hand, because he happened to see the Aeon of Preservation through Luo Feng,

and on the other hand, because Morax's qualities were indeed recognized by the Aeon of Preservation.

If Furina were suited for the Path of Preservation, then she must have also done something similar to Morax.

So, has Furina truly been protecting Fontaine for these past five hundred years?

And in a way I don't know about?

Neuvillette thought to himself.

What Neuvillette thought, Furina could naturally think of as well.

At this moment, she was staring wide-eyed at Luo Feng.

C-could it be that Luo Feng knows what I have done?

Right, Luo Feng is skilled in divination; he must have learned many things about me through it.

Thinking that Luo Feng might have seen through her not being the Hydro Archon long ago, Furina's heartbeat skipped more than a beat.

After all, Furina had never told anyone else about her secrets for five hundred years.

Now that she suddenly discovered others might know her secret, Furina subconsciously felt extremely nervous.

Following that, there was also a sense of relief, similar to finding someone she could trust to confide her secrets in.

If it were Luo Feng, he wouldn't tell these things to others, right?

Furina raised her head and looked at Luo Feng with anticipation.

Seeing Furina's expression, Neuvillette became even more firm in his thoughts.

If Furina could obtain the Path of Preservation, it could only prove that Furina had a will in her heart to preserve something.

And from Neuvillette's perspective, what Furina wanted to preserve was nothing more than Fontaine.

After all, from his perspective, Furina had conducted many investigations over the years surrounding the prophecy that "Fontaine would be flooded by water."

Although by now, Furina had almost stopped doing related investigations,

and her behavior didn't really align with the word "Preservation"—if one had to say it aligned with something, it would be more fitting to say Furina was more compatible with "Elation."

But after Luo Feng mentioned it, Neuvillette couldn't help but feel concerned.

Perhaps Furina still cared about the prophecy of Fontaine in her heart and had the will to preserve Fontaine?

Neuvillette moved his gaze away from Furina and shifted it to Luo Feng.
