Genshin Impact: What? The one we need to save is Fukaros
Chapter 131: Winter's Compromise
"More than a year later, Fontaine's prophecy will come true." Columbia's voice was clear and cold.
Her words gave Piero great inspiration.
"Could it be that the Western Factory's fuss is related to the Fontaine prophecy?" He expressed his guess.
Columbia did not respond to his question, but stared blankly at a white dandelion floating into the palace from the window, as if she was lost in some profound thoughts.
Love till winter Columbia
At this time, the calculating Pantalone calmly analyzed: "Ide is definitely not an impulsive person, and every move he makes must have a well-thought-out purpose.
Such a resolute and fierce reaction is more like asking us for a high price, ready to ask for a huge sum of money."
"Humph!" Dotore snorted disdainfully, "Are you planning to bow down to that lowly mortal?"
Capitano retorted with dissatisfaction: "If it weren't for your unplanned assassination, how could Zhidong fall into such a predicament?"
Piero slammed the table hard to show his firm stance. "I don't want to hear any more talk of accountability. If the conditions of the West Factory are within an acceptable range, I am willing to make certain compromises."
Alechino asked earnestly, "Mr. General Manager, what do you mean by 'a certain degree of compromise'?"
Piero thought for a moment, then said solemnly: "Mora, land, and all our rights in Inazuma."
Almost all the executives present had expressions of disbelief on their faces. For Zhidong, such a concession was a complete loss of sovereignty and humiliation of the country.
Obviously, Zhidong was the stronger party, but he had to make such a humiliating choice.
Piero said in a firm tone: "All this is just a temporary compromise. When the Fontaine prophecy is about to come true, we will make Fontaine pay several times the price!"
He paused for a moment, then asked, "Who is willing to go to Bayun Island to negotiate with Yide?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the young master Tartaglia, who was sitting at the end, immediately volunteered to step forward and said, "Let me go! I will definitely complete this mission successfully."
His face was full of anticipation and fighting spirit.
Everyone present knew without hesitation that this guy was going to challenge Ide.
Rosaline, who was sitting opposite him, glanced at him with disdain, "I still don't understand why a simple-minded guy like you would become the executive officer of the Fatui?
We have already failed to assassinate Ide once. If you are taking this opportunity to challenge Ide, then wouldn't it be even more difficult to ease the relationship between Zhidong and Fontaine?"
"Hey! I just want to have a friendly sparring with him. Aren't you taking it too seriously?" Tartaglia retorted somewhat dissatisfiedly.
Piero said seriously: "Daddaglia, you are not considered as a candidate."
He turned his eyes to Arlecchino. In his opinion, Arlecchino was the most suitable candidate.
Feeling Piero's gaze, Alechino was about to speak up and take on the task.
At this moment, Columbia suddenly spoke again, with a pure white dandelion floating on her slender jade-like fingers, "I'll go on this mission."
Her tone was as calm as water, as if she was narrating something.
Piero thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement: "In that case, the negotiation with the Western Factory will be handled by Columbia."
At this point, the Winter Conference came to an end.
When everyone was about to leave, the majestic voice of the Ice Queen came from the throne, "Alechino, please stay."
Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Alechino's eyes, and then he stopped.
She turned around and walked towards the elegant and noble Ice Queen with steady steps.
After all the other executive officers had left the palace, the Ice Queen stared at Alecino and asked, "What kind of person is Ide?"
Alechino replied respectfully: "Your Majesty, the Fatui have all the detailed information about him, which should be enough for you to have a comprehensive understanding of him."
The Ice Queen shook her head slightly. "The Fatui in Fontaine have long been infiltrated by the West Factory and have become a sieve. That information is only good enough to deceive a fool like Tartaglia."
After thinking for a moment, Alechino gave his own evaluation, "He is decisive and ruthless, and will do anything to achieve his goals.
But his ultimate goal is to bring justice and fairness to ordinary people so that they can live a happy and stable life."
After hearing this, the Ice Queen calmly asked, "Isn't this also the goal of the Fatui?"
Alechino shook his head firmly, "There is an essential difference between the two.
The West Factory never harms innocent people in their actions, but the Fatui often harm innocent people in the process of pursuing their goals. "
The Ice Queen remained silent. She knew that the sins committed by the Fatui over the past hundreds of years were too numerous to list.
But if Zhidong, who is located in the bitter cold land in the far north of the continent of Teyvat and has a weak national strength, does not take tough measures, how can he become the overlord that shocks the six countries in the world?
After a long time, the Ice Queen sighed deeply and said slowly: "Go back to Fontaine. I agree to your previous condition. As long as you can obtain the Heart of the Water God, everything will be as you wish."
"Thank you very much, Your Majesty the Supreme Ice Queen."
Alechino bowed to her, then turned and walked away quickly.
