Genshin Impact: Funina's Official Pastry Chef

Ying leaned against the stone wall, looking at Villette's gradually receding back, and was a little dazed for a moment.

She felt...that Violet was not as simple as she seemed.

"It can control the water of the original fetal sea and can manipulate the power of water elements very smoothly..."

Ying lowered her head slightly, constantly searching her memory for creatures that could be directly linked to these two points.

As a mountain-like figure and a flash of green light in the yellow sand appeared in her mind, her golden eyes widened instantly.

"Could it be..."

Ying looked at Villette's back in disbelief, but immediately shook her head.

"Forget it, just go and ask."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ying suddenly jumped up from the wall, and then dragged Paimon, who seemed a little confused, to the place where they had just encountered the Beast Realm Hound.

......

Perhaps because the distance was not far, Ying quickly pulled Paimon to the broken stairs.

At this moment, Villette was standing by the pool that had been polluted by fetal sea water, seemingly thinking about something.

Ying walked slowly forward and came to the side of Villette. She looked at the tall figure, then looked at the fetal water in front of her that was sparkling with a strange luster, and sighed slightly.

This is why she ran away when she was besieged by the Beast Realm Hounds just now.

The exploration of the ruins cannot be delayed. After all, this is one of the few clues that can be directly related to the prophecy.

If we miss it like this...I'm afraid a scene that no one wants to see will occur.

After all, even the water at this location has been polluted by the water of the original fetal sea, which means... the predicted ending is about to come.

Although Ying is not from Fontaine, she always feels that...she should not stand idly by and watch such a disastrous ending.

She shouldn't do this, either in her own heart or in the beliefs she has always held.

Of course, the premise is... don't hurt other people.

Thinking of this, Ying turned her head to look at Villette and asked softly:

"So Villette, are you done with your work...?"

Hearing this, Villette's thoughtful expression froze slightly, and he shook his head gently and chose to turn off the microphone.

And outside the ruins...the rain in Fontaine was getting heavier.

As for Ying...she nodded as if she was used to it. After all, Chang Ming's workload was a bit too scary, and it was normal that she couldn't finish it.

After a brief silence, Ying spoke slowly, breaking the dead silent atmosphere.

"Well Villette...I have a question for you."

"But it doesn't matter."

"You... can actually control the water of the original fetal sea?"

Hearing this, Villette was startled at first, then shook his head gently.

"It's not 'manipulation', it's 'sealing'."

Navilette corrected slowly.

"So... do you have any feelings about Chang Ming's disappearance? Or how do you view Chang Ming as a person?"

Before Ying could continue asking, Paimon asked first, as if this question had been weighing on her mind for a long time.

But it is true that the serious Navelette does not seem to be the kind of person who would make subjective judgments about others.

From both of their perspectives, the only time Villette commented on others was when he used the case of Carres to evaluate his own "justice".

Villette pondered for a long time, then slowly spoke:

"From what he has done... he is an upright and kind regent, and a kind person who cares about Melusin."

"His disappearance is as sad to me as Mr. Carey's death."

"Although there is still no news to confirm whether he is trapped in the quagmire, the word "missing" is not a good word after all."

Having said that, Villette took a deep breath, as if he wanted to use this method to calm his slightly fluctuating emotions.

Ying closed her eyes slightly, then murmured softly:

"Water dragon, water dragon... stop crying", the heavy rain in Fontaine over the past two days..."

She nodded slightly, and just when she was about to ask Violet something to verify her guess, Paimon, who was floating beside her, said loudly:

"Ah?! Are you——"

Before Paimon finished speaking, Violet nodded slightly, turned to look at Paimon who had just screamed, and said:

"Perhaps... it's just as you think."

"But as for my 'essence'...I sincerely hope that you two can keep it a secret for me."

Hearing this, Paimon nodded quickly like a chicken pecking at rice.

She vaguely remembered...the scene when she met the Dragon King Ruota in Liyue and Apep in the Sumeru Desert.

The two elemental dragons before had more or less given her some...shocks, so she was a little scared now.

Before the fear completely subsided, Paimon came up with an even more shocking guess.

"Wait?! You are the Water Dragon King, then where is Chang Ming? Could Chang Ming be the Thunder Dragon King who is not in Inazuma?!"

Hearing this, Ying blinked strangely, as if she didn't understand where Paimon's inference came from.

Not only Ying, but even Violet was stunned by her question.

However, the Supreme Judge's work ethics allowed him to quickly recover and he explained with a normal expression:

"Unfortunately, neither I nor Mr. Chang Ming himself know his true nature."

"However... I can vaguely sense a very unique power from him, but because I don't have those memories from ancient times, I can't make a corresponding judgment."

Villette shook his head with some regret, as if he was a little regretful that he could not judge Chang Ming's true nature.

——After all, in his opinion, Chang Ming, like him, is a person troubled by his "essence".

After saying this, Villette turned his head slightly, pointed to the broken bridge in the distance and said:

"If we want to go deeper...we need to cross these broken bridges."

"Be careful. Although you are not from Fontaine, too much contact with the water of the original fetal sea is not good for you."

That Villette reminded with a serious face.

Hearing this, Ying and Paimon nodded to show their understanding, and then carefully walked across the road that had been broken to the other end of the room.

And Villette closed his eyes slightly, trying to find Chang Ming's trace through the water of the original fetal sea, but... the result was the same as before.

"I hope... this trial will not come as planned..."

That Villette sighed softly and then followed.

I am grateful to the boss of "Liuying (Samuel)" for giving me seven or seven great god certifications. The boss is generous...

I will calculate how many chapters I owe after tomorrow’s data comes out.

The air conditioner I bought will arrive tomorrow afternoon. After installing it, I will try to see if I can guarantee five updates a day (it’s really hot and I want to die)
