Genshin Impact: Funina's Official Pastry Chef

"...!"

Feeling the murderous intent and violent power emanating from Chang Ming, Boethius was like a duck with its throat strangled by a farmer, completely unable to speak.

The man whose consciousness he had once easily invaded... was standing in front of him again.

At this moment, he was no longer weak, and he would no longer be easily controlled by him as before. Instead, he exuded an aura that made him and Phobos tremble slightly.

But...what can I do?

He, Boethius, has completely merged with Phobos and has long since transcended all harm from the real world. In other words...

"Ha, your strength does surprise me a little, but it's not enough."

"Let you barbarians be the ones who understand, and I will tell you."

Before Chang Ming could swing his sword, Boethius instantly turned into spots of light and disappeared in front of everyone, and then those spots of light quickly flew behind everyone.

hum-

Accompanied by a strange buzzing sound, the figure of Boethius, who made people feel a little uncomfortable just by standing there, reappeared at the place where the light spots gathered.

"Look! This is the power of Phobos. My real body is not here at all. You can't cause any harm to me!"

Boethius opened his arms, and although his face could not show any emotion, his actions and that annoyingly arrogant tone showed everything.

"It's not too late to surrender now, my dear friend, let's rule the world together!"

He invited Cassiodoro again, but...he was Cassiodoro, how could he agree?

"Hey..."

Cassiodoro sighed slightly, and then said softly:

"So stop here, Boethius, and return the souls of those who are here on earth to them, and then return to the shadows, to the deep waters, to where you should be."

Having said that, Cassiodoro paused for a moment, glanced at Chang Ming who was standing not far away, sighed again, and then said with a hint of pity:

"This is my final advice to you."

Cassiodoro, who would visit Chang Ming's consciousness space whenever he had nothing to do, of course knew exactly what Chang Ming's current strength was.

In terms of strength and technique alone, Chang Ming is already on par with his former believer, the "God King" Remus.

But if we talk about the weirdness of the origin of power... then Chang Ming, who masters the power of the abyss, is naturally better.

Not to mention that Phobos has been silent for thousands of years. Under the power of time, its strength is no longer as unmatched as it once was.

But obviously, Boethius didn't think so. He sneered and said jokingly:

"Oh, and then what? Then you can continue to play the hypocritical face of a traitor and close your eyes and ears until the next thousand years?"

"Did you notice this? Why did my melody break through the shackles and affect the world at this moment?"

"Why is my power enough to allow me to open the door to the golden palace under the deep water and manifest here?"

"That's because the power of the sea is growing. Cassiodorus... the time for Phobos to reappear on earth is coming!"

"The mystery of omniscience and great power can finally come to the world again. Isn't this exactly what we wanted to achieve in the beginning?"

"..."

Cassiodoro shook his head silently, glanced at Chang Ming who didn't want to interrupt their "reminiscence", sighed again, and then said:

"Don't you understand after all these years? Repeating the past will only lead to tragedy... Besides, I never thought of sacrificing the lives of innocent people."

"Oh... it doesn't matter, Cassiodoro. The world you protect is falling apart, and the people of the old days in your eyes are about to return to where they belong."

As Boethius spoke, he looked at Chang Ming sarcastically. He knew very well that this man with a strange aura was one of the core members of Fontaine.

At this moment, he had no way to deal with himself, so... he could mock and whip him unscrupulously to highlight himself and the superiority of Phobos.

"The existence of Fontaine is a mistake. I, we, will correct this mistake. When the sea swallows up Fontaine, Lemuria will once again stand above the sea level! And the glory of the Golden Kingdom will once again shine on the earth!"

"A thief with such little power... dares to speak so arrogantly?"

Chang Ming crossed his arms across his chest. There was no trace of anger on his face, but rather a playful smile.

"The source of your power, what you rely on... its origin, or the true inheritor... are all the core members of Fontaine."

"Remus obtained the spiritual dew of the original fetal sea from the first generation of water goddess Egolia, and the water goddess is the founder of Fontaine Court. Her successor is also in Fontaine now."

"The power of the original fetal sea should have been controlled by the king revered by "Prince of the Dragon Clan" Scylla - the Water Element Dragon King, and the second generation of the Water Dragon King is the highest judge of Fontaine."

"As for Phobos's so-called omniscience and omnipotence...it comes from the power of the ancient fairy "Golden Bee" Sibyl."

As Chang Ming spoke, he slowly walked in front of Boethius, the sword in his hand still emitting a heart-pounding and violent energy.

"Guess who is the successor of the fairy?"

After saying this, the long sword in Chang Ming's hand pierced into Boethius' chest without warning.

The abyss power attached to the sword instantly lost its restraint and ran rampant in Boethius' body like a wild horse.

The power of the abyss is deadly to anyone, but... Boethius did not show any pain.

He smiled contemptuously, then took two steps back steadily. The wounds on his body healed in an instant. This scene stunned Ying and Paimeng who were standing in the distance.

"He actually...didn't get hurt at all?!"

Paimon screamed, then looked at Ying and Chang Ming worriedly, and was a little panicked for a moment.

Such an enemy...how can they defeat it?

Ying bit her lips lightly, her brain working rapidly, thinking about what to do next.

"Hahahaha, the barbarians are indeed barbarians. I've already said it before, this kind of clumsy damage is completely irrelevant to me—"

Before Boethius could finish his words, a pain from the depths of his soul instantly swept through his body, and his body, which was originally made up of light spots, began to twist and deform at this moment.

This pain from the depths of his soul made him tremble. Thousands of years had passed, and he had long forgotten what pain felt like, but now...

The pain that was enough to dominate his body appeared again.

"What...did you do?!"

Boethius' voice trembled slightly, and it was obvious that he could no longer bear the pain.

Chang Ming put away his sword in silence, and the signature smile of a regent appeared on his face again.

"I didn't do anything. I just used a little trick on something you were so proud of."

Chang Ming smiled and pointed to the golden palace behind the sea-blue door. In the center of the palace was a glittering golden harp.

That was one of Phobos' carriers, and at this moment, the thing that should have been shining with golden light... was stained with a bit of black.

"To put it bluntly, Phobos is still a force that belongs to this world, so..."

"Can you stop the destructive force coming from outside this world?"
