Genshin Impact: Taking stock of the Great Merciful Tree King, Nasida cried

Chapter 22: Sudden riot, accusations against Funina

Charlotte's words allowed Paimon and the travelers to see her understanding of life.

This way of living that focuses on one's own career and is immersed in it even when the end comes, is like a breeze blowing into Paimon's depressed state of mind due to Fontaine's prophecy.

Paimon: "Let's get closer and have a look at the sea."

The two of them came to the high platform side by side, looking at the calm sea in front of them, feeling as if they were relieved.

Paimon: "Ying, I was thinking..."

Ying: "Huh?"

Paimon: "If instead of Fontaine, the whole of Teyvat was to be destroyed tomorrow, where would the two of us be and what would we do?"

"No, I should say, if you could choose, what would you like to do?"

Ying thought carefully for a while.

(My choice?)

(...It is true that as Charlotte said, thinking about this kind of thing suddenly will not lead to results.)

Paimon: "We kept moving forward without spending any time thinking about such issues. There was no reason, so we just kept going and kept on the road."

Ying: "I should be on the road by then."

Paimon: "Still traveling?"

Ying: "Cherish every minute and every second... take a good look at this world again."

[Paimon]: What...isn't this what we have been doing?

[Ying]: Just because I don’t know what to do, I can only do what I do now.

[Amber]: It’s really like a traveler’s answer. If possible, I would like to fly high into the sky with the Wings of Wind and take a good look at the whole of Mondstadt.

[Lisa]: I always feel like Paimon here is hinting at something. Is it my imagination?

[Albedo]: Life will eventually come to an end. The meaning of a person's life in this world does not depend on how long he lives, but on what he has done.

[Navia]: If that day comes, everyone in the Thorn Rose Society and I will protect the residents in Baisong Town until the last moment. Of course, it would be great if we could still eat egg-sugar almonds.

[Silver]: If the lady wants to eat, I will bring it to her no matter how much.

[Navilet]: Originally I thought there was nothing more important than life, but it wasn’t until now that I realized that some things are more important than life.

[Nasida]: The most precious thing in the world is life, but there are always some things that we are not willing to sacrifice our lives for. It can be an earth-shattering event, or it can be a trivial matter, because it is precisely These things constitute the meaning of life itself.

He and Paimon chatted wordlessly, and time passed quietly.

At night, the two returned to their residence and ended their busy day.

The next few days were equally peaceful. Charlotte came to visit the two for an exclusive interview. The interview location was at the Rose of Thorns stronghold in Gray River.

After finishing dealing with matters in Baisong Town, Navia returned to the stronghold and took a photo with the traveler and Paimon. Everything went smoothly.

this day.

Paimon yawned as usual: "Ha-it feels like if you stay here all the time, people will get moldy..."

"But it is indeed better than Merlot Petersburg. Not only is it humid there, it also seems to be a little salty..."

While the two were talking, Isadore, the auditor of Momang Palace, came over and said, "So you two still live here, that's great."

Ying: "Did something happen?"

Isadore: "The incident happened in the opera house this morning. The Film Studio defined the incident as a small-scale riot."

Paimon: "Riot?"

Isadore: "But actually, I don't think it's that serious."

"Originally Lady Funina was watching a performance at the Opera House, but during the intermission, other audience members suddenly attacked Lady Funina..."

"Criticize her loudly for her inaction regarding [the prophecy crisis]."

"Before Lady Funina could respond, several more people began to accuse her emotionally..."

"Later, more and more people responded, and a denunciation of Lord Water God started in the opera house."

【Dadalia】: Hey! This is not as "not that serious" as what this young lady said. What was revealed behind this incident was obviously the people of Fontaine's distrust of the gods. If left unchecked, extremely serious consequences would occur.

[Paimon]: Huh? Why?

[Ningguang]: As the highest authority of the seven countries, the gods represent the will and strength of a country. If even the people of the country begin to doubt the legitimacy of their own gods, it will shake the foundation of the country.

[Kaia]: But from what we have seen so far, the water god of Fontaine did not take any measures against the prophecy, and seemed to be completely aloof.

[Kamizato Ayaka]: It seems that the prophecy crisis has allowed the already nervous people to find an outlet. At this time, the most important thing is to appease the people's emotions.

[Navia]: But for now, Lady Funina is guarding her secret and refuses to discuss it with Lady Navilette. No wonder the people think so.

[Leosli]: But no matter what, Lady Funina is the god of our Fontaine after all. To publicly accuse Lady Funina like this is undoubtedly challenging the authority of the god.

[Xigwen]: When human beings are highly stressed, they will inevitably make some outrageous actions. I hope that nothing will happen to Lady Funina.

[Navilet]: I still don’t understand why Ms. Funina refuses to communicate again and again, even though communication is the way to solve the problem.

The screen continues to play.

Paimon: "Have people begun to point the finger at Fonina? They have been frightened by the prophecy for so long, and finally found a chance to vent their anger?"

Isadore: "Yes, people have always relied on the gods as a matter of course, and when people lose their sense of security, the first one to blame is always the gods."

Paimon: "What happened next? Is Funina okay?"

Isadore: "Lady Funina lost control when she saw the scene, and her excuses were useless, so she said that she [lost the fun] and left the opera house in a hurry."

The people in the Shadow Chasing Court were busy maintaining order and did not pay attention to Lady Funina's whereabouts. When the situation stabilized, they discovered that Lady Funina had disappeared.

Paimon: "So, she should be considered missing now, right?"

Isadore: "Yes, Shadow Chasing Court has sent many people to search for her traces, but there are no clues reported yet."

"But I don't think there's anything to be nervous about. She is a god after all. Even if she falls into the hands of the mob, what can humans do to her?"

[Dadalia]: Is it really not going to happen? Although I haven’t met the Fontaine God face to face yet, I have an intuition that Funina herself is not strong.

[Paimon]: You look at people too superficially. You know how to fight and kill all day long. Funina is also one of the seven gods. No matter how weak she is, she is much stronger than ordinary people.

[Ningguang]: But if those mobs really attacked Ms. Funina, the nature of it would be too bad. If word spread, it would damage Fontaine's image.

[Servant]: I have tested Ms. Funina in private, and found that she is just like an ordinary girl, with no supernatural powers at all. If Funina really falls into the hands of those mobs, the consequences will be disastrous.

[Amber]: Huh? ! Wouldn't that be too bad? We need to find Funina quickly.
