Genshin Impact: Furninna, sister, I am really not a pervert
Chapter 196 A story about Egolia
"Sister, do you want to know about Lady Egolia's past?"
Fucaros tilted his head in confusion, his heart full of confusion.
"Why are you suddenly asking about the past?"
"I'm curious!" Furnina was bored and lying on the table in a daze. "After all, Holmes is me. I want to know... why Holmes insisted on going to Kanria to save Egolia even at the cost of his life?"
"You clearly don't have enough strength, but you insist on going..."
“That’s the point I haven’t figured out!”
Funina held the Fukaros-like doll and muttered unhappily, "So, can you tell me about her?"
Fucaros stared at Funina in a daze, then couldn't help but secretly covered his mouth and chuckled.
"What are you doing? Why are you laughing?"
Funina suddenly noticed something strange and pushed Fucaros' shoulder in dissatisfaction.
"No, no!" Fucaros smiled helplessly, but the smile on her lips couldn't hide her true thoughts.
"What? You obviously have it!" Fnina glared at Fucarlos with dissatisfaction.
"Really not!" Fukaros explained with a helpless smile, "But, sister. As for the story between Lady Egolia and you in the past, I can't remember it clearly."
"At that time, I was very young, so I have lost a lot of memories. I only know that you and Lady Egolia had a very harmonious relationship. The only puzzling thing is..." Fucaros pondered, but could not get an answer for a while.
Fu Nina showed a trace of doubt in her expression, and then asked in confusion: "Fukalos, what do you want to say?"
"Nothing, maybe I remembered it wrong." After hesitating for a moment, Fukalos explained to Funina tactfully, "It's just... Sister, you seem to cry every time you get along with Lady Egolia."
……
"You're here, Holmes~"
"Yeah." Holmes nodded slightly.
Egolia, who had just obtained the original fragment and truly became a demon god, sat on the cliff and looked at Holmes who had come late. Her face showed no sadness or joy. She looked up at the sky and said softly, "Long time no see. How have you been lately?"
"I... am fine." Holmes nodded hesitantly, and after hesitating for a moment, he chose to sit next to Egolia.
Egolia looked at Holmes who was sitting beside her without saying a word. After hesitating for a moment, she said to Holmes guiltily: "I'm sorry, Holmes. I know that you and Tianli are hostile to each other, but... I have no other choice."
"I know that for the sake of the people of Fontaine, you have no choice." Holmes smiled gently, looked up at Gao Tian and said, "The demons are all lovers. It was their wishes that moved [Fanes], and it is everyone's wish that you can become the water god."
"..."
Egolia opened her mouth to make some excuses, but in the end she found herself unable to refute anything because she had no idea what she had done wrong.
That was natural. After all, in Holmes' eyes, it was not Egolia who was wrong, but the law of nature.
Holmes had her reasons for wielding the sword against Heavenly Justice, and the seven rulers of the mortal world who were on the side of Heavenly Justice were naturally among those she would kill.
If Egolia had not accepted the original fragment, if she had not become the water god of Fontaine, Holmes would naturally have no reason to take action.
But she didn't want to do this...
“If, if I had never come into this world…” Holmes curled up in fear. Cracks appeared on her left arm and her right eye turned red in an instant.
"Don't be like this, Holmes!" Egolia held the trembling Holmes in her arms. She reached out her hand tenderly to touch the long white hair on Holmes' back.
"You and I are the same. We both have no choice." Egolia patted Holmes' back gently and said softly.
"You don't need to belittle yourself, you are just doing what you think you should do!"
Gentle Eugolia gently rubbed Holmes' nose with her fingertips and smiled softly: "Your background has already represented the difference between us."
"You may have a battle with Heaven's Law, but whether or not to fight is entirely determined by your will."
"Your heart is no different from that of humans, but humans are different from gods. You must also have selfish desires. Who doesn't have selfish desires? This may be the biggest difference between humans and gods."
Holmes felt the warmth from Egolia's body on her skin. Her heart was slightly touched by Egolia and tears unconsciously fell from her eyes.
Seeing this, Egolia smiled and gently patted Holmes' back in her arms, like Holmes' mother.
Holmes, who had not felt the warmth of family for a long time, just wanted to be immersed in Egolia's arms forever.
"Folmes, you can see the future of Teyvat? Right?"
Holmes suddenly heard Egolia's voice in his ears. Holmes paused, and he pulled himself out of Egolia's arms. He nodded slightly under Egolia's gaze.
Egolia smiled softly, then stroked Holmes' cheek and asked softly, "So, can you tell me about the future of Fontaine a thousand years from now?"
Holmes was silent for a moment, then he said slowly:
"A thousand years later, the demon god Fukaros, who inherited the throne of God, destroyed the throne of God and returned the complete power of the ancient dragon to the second generation of Water Dragon King, thus absolving the Fontaine people of their original sin."
Egolia was slightly stunned, and after a long while she slowly said, "So, it was Fukaros who inherited the throne. No wonder, among the new pure water elves, you have the closest relationship with Fukaros."
Holmes lowered his head silently, with an expression of noncommittal.
Everything she had done was exposed before this god.
Thousands of years of hard work have been wasted. Perhaps if she had struggled a little longer, she might not have failed.
But she was tired...
The betrayal of her blood relatives, the turning against her own people...all of this pushed her into an unforgivable abyss. For a hatred that existed thousands of years ago, she abandoned her original appearance, and invisibly hurt and schemed against others for her own ends.
Is all this really worth doing?
Holmes suddenly thought of a friend of hers, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly, revealing a faint smile.
It’s better not to tell him about the thousand years of hatred.
Rather than letting him live in pain with the hatred from his previous life, it is better for him to live this life without knowing it.
He still has a long future ahead of him, and he lives long enough to witness the destruction of this world.
She originally thought that she would be blamed by the person in front of her, but unexpectedly, Egolia had a peaceful smile on her face. She gently brushed the white hair on Holmes' forehead behind his ears.
Then, just like he treated other pure water spirits, he touched Holmes' head and called softly:
"Holmes, are you... tired?"
"Maybe... I'm tired." Holmes felt the warmth on his cheek, lowered his head silently and said softly, "I used to think I had everything, until the moment the lie called family affection was torn apart, I realized that it was just self-righteousness."
"I have been living a false lie since I was born. My own people despised me. They thought my value was only to become a [vessel]."
"My blood relative hurt me. He wanted to be the [spark] of the tribe's revival, and to do that, he made me the [vessel]."
Holmes' eyes were somewhat dim, and his expression became dull and stiff, as if he was mumbling something indifferent to himself.
"Perhaps, all life has two faces since birth. And I am their designated victim."
Holmes slowly raised his head to look at the starry sky above, and counted the stars in the sky blankly with eyes that had lost their luster.
"I have doubted several times whether this is a punishment from God. However, this is just my wishful thinking. He doesn't even know of my existence. I am not the human that He loves."
"Times change, our era has long gone... no, or rather, their era has long gone. Because most of them don't know or don't acknowledge my existence." Holmes stared blankly at the sky, with an unconscious smile on his face.
“But I still have a little delusion in my heart. If He comes back again, will my situation change a bit?”
Egolia stared at Holmes blankly, with a hint of sadness in her eyes.
"Forget it. Those old things should have been crushed by the wheels of history." Holmes chuckled, looked directly into the eyes of the water goddess Egolia, and said softly, "So, Lady Egolia, the water goddess..."
Holmes slowly closed his eyes and said softly: "As the god of justice of Fontaine, what kind of sentence will you give to a sinner like me?"
The first water goddess Eugolia was silent for a long time. After a while, she tried to touch Holmes' cheek several times, trying to relax Holmes' mind.
But in the end, she slowly put down her hands, and an incomprehensible smile appeared at the corners of her mouth.
"As the God of Justice, I do have this right, but..."
The hair on Holmes' body slowly stood up, she stretched her slender neck towards Egolia, and her body couldn't help but tremble slightly.
If I die, then this [Killing Game] should also end.
"Pure Water Spirit Holmes, I would like to ask you a few questions. Please answer me honestly."
"I...will answer truthfully."
Egolia smiled and asked, "In your mind, what would be the price of disguising yourself to scheme against others?"
Holmes slowly opened his eyes and whispered, "Are you going to decide my execution method based on my answer?"
Egolia smiled and said, "The answer is for reference only. Please answer truthfully as you said."
Holmes fell silent, as if he was thinking about something.
After a long time, she said slowly:
"If you keep the mask on for too long, you may not be able to take it off. If you scheme against others, you will eventually be punished."
"Really? So that's your answer!" Egolia smiled and said, "You know what? To judge a person's character, perhaps we shouldn't look at what she says, but what she does."
"But...I think you are a very good child!"
"Eh?" Holmes stared at Egolia blankly, with a look of surprise in his eyes, "Egolia, sister..."
Egolia smiled slightly, reached out and poked Holmes' head, and said softly: "I don't think this is your fault, and the purpose you desire is not wrong. Your kind nature has guided you to not hurt others, which means you still have time to make amends."
"Remember, as long as you are still a pure water spirit, you will always be a follower of me, the water goddess Egolia." Egolia tapped Holmes' forehead, then kissed him gently and said, "I am very happy that you really regard me as a family member, so as a family member, I will definitely guide you in the right direction."
"Eh?"
Feeling the wet, soft touch, Holmes covered his lips lightly in disbelief. Then his expression turned red as he took three steps back in discomfort, looking at Egolia with incredible eyes.
"you you you you……"
Egolia looked at Holmes in confusion and asked, "What's wrong? I think humans all seem to express their emotions in this way. Don't you like it?"
"I like it... No, no! I don't like it! I don't like it at all!"
Holmes' cheeks flushed, and he stammered incoherently: "Why do you want to do this? No one has ever done this to me! And, you must have misunderstood! This is definitely not the way humans convey family affection, but, but..."
White steam came out of Holmes' head, and then his whole body stammered as if some kind of switch was turned on.
This feeling is so comfortable... No! It's so weird!
It felt like my whole body was on fire...
Holmes slowly hugged his body, his cheeks red as if water was about to drip out.
"Holmes..."
Holmes heard Egolia's gentle call in her ears. She raised her head and stared at the big sister in front of her who brought infinite warmth to her heart.
Egolia looked at Holmes tenderly and said sweetly, "Next, I will give you the judgment made by the God of Justice."
Holmes swallowed nervously subconsciously. The last time she felt so nervous was when she saw the glory of justice from afar thousands of years ago.
"Pure Water Spirit Holmes is guilty, and the verdict I'm going to pass is..."
"As it is now, as the pure water spirit Folmes, the sister of the pure water spirit Fukaros, and the most trusted follower of the water goddess Egolia..."
"No longer choose to hurt others, but like this."
The first generation water god Egolia touched her chest with one hand and said with a smile: "Join us to welcome a better tomorrow..."
Holmes stared at the water goddess Egolia in a daze, her tears gradually wet her eyes. She wiped the tears from her eyes, smiled and nodded, saying, "Okay."
……
The girl lay on Villette's shoulder as she had done for who knows how long. Her tone was gentle and peaceful, like a bewitching demon from hell.
"Your part...is over. Let me help you become a true Water Dragon King!"
Villette's pupils trembled slightly, as if he could not control his body. He opened his arms with all his strength and tried to resist Holmes.
A trace of blood flowed from the corner of Villette's mouth. Finally, his hands gently brushed Holmes's long white hair, just like he did many years ago. Finally, he knelt weakly in front of Holmes and gently closed his eyes.
As the supreme judge, Navelette had already fulfilled his duties. When Fenina rushed back here, all she saw was Holmes holding a still beating heart in his hand and a familiar corpse lying at her feet.
"That Villette!!"
"It's Fu Nina, long time no see~"
There seemed to be a trace of unknown blood on the corner of Holmes' mouth. She stood between the bodies of the dragon Erinus and Navrat, looked at Furnina with a smile and said:
"Do you remember our agreement? Vernina..."
"I'm here to keep my appointment."
