Genshin Impact: Funina's Official Pastry Chef

Hearing Chang Ming's words, Funina was stunned for a moment, then nodded slightly and left.

What Funina can be sure of now is... Chang Ming must know something, and a lot.

Although this is just a feeling, but considering her experience...it is indeed true.

She has spent the past five hundred years of her life performing. The self in the mirror told her that her life was like a drama, and she had to keep singing until it was all over.

This state is very similar to the one Chang Ming just described.

Even if you know that your life is just a drama, you have to keep dancing.

Because they had a reason to jump.

After Funina left, Chang Ming breathed a sigh of relief.

Sometimes knowing too much is not a good thing.

When he looked at Finina, who had to wear a mask all the time and dance alone on the dark stage with no one watching, he always had an urge to tell Finina everything.

But Chang Ming couldn't say it, because he didn't know whether what he said would have an impact on the timeline of this world, nor did he know whether everything would continue to develop the way he wanted.

This is every living thing's instinctive fear of the "unknown".

Chang Ming didn't know whether his future would be affected by the words he said, and he couldn't afford to take the risk.

So...from the moment he joined the Momang Palace, he also put on a mask, and started his own dance just separated by a wall from the theater where Funina was performing.

He had to keep singing, whether for the peace and stability of Fontaine or to ensure that all of Funina's hard work over the years would not be in vain.

"Meow~"

A light cat's meow interrupted Chang Ming's thoughts. He looked at the little Sanhua cat that had jumped onto his table at some point and was rubbing the back of his hand.

Chang Ming was slightly stunned when he saw this, then he smiled and rubbed the kitten's head.

"What a clever little creature, he can even perceive the emotional state of humans... It's really amazing."

Xiao Sanhua felt the warmth coming from the top of her head, closed her eyes slightly, and made a snoring sound, as if she was enjoying it.

It seemed that the aura around Chang Ming was too comfortable, or maybe because Xiao Sanhua liked Chang Ming very much, it involuntarily collapsed on Chang Ming's desk, revealing its hairy belly.

Those bright black little eyes were looking at Chang Ming, as if wanting him to touch them.

Chang Ming smiled and nodded when he saw this, then he continued to correct the documents in his hand while rubbing the kitten's belly.

For Chang Ming, who has been a corporate slave for almost 500 years, reviewing official documents with one hand is not a particularly difficult task.

The difficult part is to review official documents without using your brain.

——Because you never know how many idiots there are in this world who will suddenly give you something that will make you blind.

However, just when Chang Ming wanted to continue correcting...that familiar light screen appeared in front of his eyes again.

[Main quest "The Prologue to Shiraku and Kuroshio" completed]

[Role participation: 80%]

[Character Presence Level: A+]

[Overall rating of role performance: S-]

[The popularity value is being calculated, please wait...]

[Popularity gained from participating in the main mission: 5500]

【Current popularity value:】

Looking at the numbers that kept rising, Chang Ming nodded slightly.

"Suddenly, there is so much popularity... It seems that the main quests, which are the quests that you have to do, can increase the popularity value more..."

"Ten thousand popularity points... If you want to complete the entire legendary mission, you can do it, but right now... it seems that there is no need for that for the time being."

"Unless my legendary quest is a prerequisite for a certain version of a big event, otherwise... there's really not much I want to do."

As Chang Ming thought about this, he called out a panel that was similar to a game store, and then began to browse.

In terms of the overall content, this panel hasn't undergone any major changes. If I have to say anything, the "Main Quest Adaptation" option that was previously purchased for 500 popularity points has reappeared.

"Legendary quests are not worth it, and other auxiliary functions are unaffordable. The main quest of 4.0 has not been completed yet, let alone the side quests..."

Chang Ming narrowed his eyes slightly, and finally chose the "Main Mission Adaptation".

In his opinion, the object of this "adaptation" is not the content, but his "presence or absence".

To give the simplest example, Chang Ming didn't need to show up to greet the travelers, Clorinde alone was enough.

But after he chose to adapt, Chang Ming naturally appeared in front of everyone.

In the "Prologue to Shiraku and Kuroshio", Chang Ming can only choose one plot node, and the rest are either he is doing something else or he is present.

So Chang Ming guessed that this thing, to put it bluntly, was to change whether he would appear on the stage.

After thinking this through, Chang Ming tilted his head slightly as he looked at the new screenshots of the plot covers that appeared in front of him.

"As far as I can remember... the travelers who finish their farewell dinner with Navia tonight will be targeted by the guys selling "Les" headed by Vash..."

“This might be a good opportunity.”

While thinking about it, Chang Ming chose the plot cover with Navia and Clorinde holding swords back to back, and then continued to observe the remaining plots for selection.

"This is about the 'serial disappearance of girls' case... maybe after Navia finds some clues, I can become her agent and help her argue in court."

"This way... I can not only settle accounts with Vashé myself and vent my anger, but I can also bring all my previous "plans" to the fore..."

Thinking of this, Chang Ming smiled and nodded, as if he was very satisfied with his decision.

"Well, that's it."

As Chang Ming operated, all the scenes related to "Judgment" from the end to the middle of the mission were selected by Chang Ming.

“Although this may be a bit of a distraction, it doesn’t mean ‘no’.”

"As we all know, travelers don't have their own vocal organs. Let her analyze it, and I will remind and speak."

"This is very important to both Navia and me."

Thinking of this, Chang Ming nodded slightly. After confirming that he had paid 5,000 popularity points, he returned his gaze to the document in front of him.

——He has to finish today's work quickly, and then... go out to save people.
