Genshin Impact: Funina's Official Pastry Chef

"Wait, wait a minute? Chang Ming is the next Supreme Ruler... but he has the power of the abyss?"

"The source of power is one thing, but how to use it and whether you can control it is another."

Zhongli said this rather calmly, as if he had already figured the matter out.

Or in other words... Chang Ming had figured this out the moment he arrived in Liyue.

Everything in this world has two sides, and power is no exception.

Some people, once they have power and knowledge, will seek to wreak havoc on everyone in order to make themselves supreme.

Some people use their strength and knowledge to improve themselves and the lives of more people.

Some people who cannot control power will become puppets of power and lose their humanity, while some people do not lose their humanity after gaining power. Instead, they take on more responsibilities than before.

What's more... Chang Ming is a fairy, a member of the Sky Island clan, and the Ruler of Death has no objection... So it is estimated that mastering the power of the abyss is also part of the plan.

Thinking of this, Zhongli sighed slightly, as if he was thinking of the old friend whose mind was dominated by the abyss.

While Zhongli was reminiscing about the past and remembering old friends, Wendy nodded with a smile.

"So I'm telling you, you don't need to worry about this problem. Because of Chang Ming's existence, it won't be difficult for you to meet the Supreme Ruler later."

Ying nodded slightly when she heard that, then closed her eyes and let out a long breath.

In fact, for her now, it is not important whether she can find the god who separated her and her brother. What is important is... why her brother is standing on the other side of the abyss.

He said that the answer can be seen at the end of the journey, so...her clearer goal now is actually to reach the end, rather than looking for the murderer.

"...So now, how is Chang Ming?"

"do not know."

Wendy spread her hands, a look of helplessness appearing on her face.

"After all, that is an independent space created by the Ruler of Death. If the old man didn't have the feather of the Ruler of Death in his hand, we wouldn't be able to help him."

"Now...it all depends on him."

As Wendy spoke, she looked at Chang Ming who was lying next to her and sighed slightly. She seemed a little helpless, and also seemed to... imply some other meaning.

“Wow, hahahahahahaha, powerful force, more powerful than before! I am free!!!”

Just when the atmosphere suddenly became a little gloomy, a bold voice came from a distance - it was Scylla's voice.

The process of integrating Scylla's soul into the Devouring Whale was not interrupted by the arrival of the Archon of Death, but continued to run smoothly and eventually entered the final stage.

Although Scylla didn't make any sound when the ceremony just ended, it now seems...that his body has not yet been fully adjusted.

"Little ones, where is the regent? I want to thank him in person, and then I will officially join the Fontaine Court after meeting the Dragon King!"

Scylla didn't seem to realize how loud his voice was, and it made Paimon's ears feel a little uncomfortable.

“Uooaaaaaaaa!! Hey guys, can you please keep your voice down a bit!! My head is going to explode!!!”

"Ah, sorry, sorry. I haven't fully adapted to this new body yet. Hahahahaha, forgive me, little one~"

After hearing Scylla's apology, Paimon crossed his arms across his chest, looking like he would not forgive Scylla if she didn't give him a sweet flower-stuffed chicken.

But the child's anger came and went quickly. She quickly put down her arms and then patiently told Scylla what had just happened.

"So... Mr. Regent is actually the heir of Sky Island... Never mind. You will understand what is going on after you meet Lord Dragon King."

"I have now taken back the body of the dragon clan. Cassiodoro and the little ones, do you want to go with me to settle accounts with that demon?"

After hearing Scylla's words, Ying and Paimon looked at Wendy and Zhongli standing next to them, as if they wanted to hear their thoughts first.

"No problem, Chang Ming, the old man and I will take care of this place, you guys just go do your things~"

Wendy smiled cheerfully, then turned her gaze to Chang Ming, as if she was waiting for something.

Zhongli nodded slightly, looking at the huge whale - Scylla, and seemed to be more concerned about the word "Dragon King".

Of course, he didn't ask much. Since this was the person recruited by Chang Ming... he would just ask directly when the time comes.

"Then let's... go settle accounts with that rude guy Boethius first! There was such a big commotion here just now, he must know we are here!"

Paimon rolled up his sleeves symbolically. Although he looked murderous,...this was done by Paimon, so there was no need to talk about whether it was murderous or not.

"Come on, little ones. I will take you to settle accounts with that demon. Come up!"

......

Ye Zhi looked at the scenes before him, a dazed look on his face.

She always felt that... as long as it was related to Chang Ming, her enthusiasm for the plot would be refreshed.

You think the awakening of power is the kind where you break the seal and endure tremendous pain, and then there’s a famous scene like “Ultraman, open your eyes, I’m Shafrin”, and then it’s over.

In fact, it is just a direct confrontation with the high-level existence, and it also puts on a drama of "one side in trouble, support from all sides" for you, and then there are a group of people who have been to the main line themselves?

What is this all about?

Didn't we just have a gathering in Liyue? Why are we all in Fontaine now?

This time there is also Columbia and the Dragon Prince, what are you going to do?

Also, is Chang Ming really going to fight Sky Island like this? He doesn't even need to act?

But then again, Chang Ming's positioning is indeed the same as she thought at the beginning - a character used to reveal the underlying worldview of the world.

Now, the four shadows that only existed in various textual research and scraps were directly pulled out.

"So...is this a good thing or a bad thing?"

Ye Zhi shook his head gently, gave up thinking about this matter, and then pondered the meaning of Chang Ming's words: "Stand up, don't kneel."

Just like he said, once you kneel down, you can never stand up again.

As a funny thing, the chapter I posted last August criticized capitalists, and it was judged as inappropriate speech in January.

To be honest, you can say a lot of things that are unfavorable to the government on Tomato, but you absolutely cannot say bad things about capitalists.

Difficult to stretch.
