Trista's little face immediately scrunched up—"Wait, who are you?"
Starting with this kind of thing? Do you think you're the God of Water?!
...But to be honest, Trista felt that 'Fuch's' tone and mannerisms were quite familiar, just like the real Lady Fuchina.
But after examining Funina from Melusin's unique perspective, Trista still maintained the same attitude—she didn't buy it!
Hmph, if Lady Funina hadn't been there, she would have dragged this impolite and arrogant man back to the guard post for obstructing official business!
—The experienced Funina immediately noticed the displeasure in the look in her eyes. Most of the time, Melusin didn't hide her emotions; when she was angry, she just looked angry, and anyone with eyes could see it.
"what......"
Funina immediately understood what was going on, and after looking down, she felt somewhat embarrassed.
Oh no! I forgot I'm not the water god anymore!
He was used to giving orders, so he couldn't adapt to the new body—it's all his fault.
Miss Fu Ningna silently passed the buck to 'Jiang Ningna' beside her, who suppressed a laugh before regaining her composure:
"Okay, let's do it her way. Her opinion is my opinion."
The blue-and-white-haired girl was quite calm, her tone incredibly peaceful, yet revealing a hint of non-questioning—this was not intentional, but rather the authority of a superior, the "Queen of the Waters, the Directions, the Peoples, and the Laws."
"Uh, okay, Lady Funina." Trista was stunned for a moment when she felt that aura, then nodded—wow, this feeling about Lady Funina is similar to that of Lady Vilette, no... maybe even more special. I didn't feel this way at all when I saw Lady Funina before... Oh well, who cares! As long as she's handsome, that's all that matters!
Trista, successfully captivated by the 'domineering aura,' became much more amiable, a stark contrast to her attitude towards Frynn.
Funina, watching from the side, almost ground her teeth to powder.
That's not how you treat me at all!
I don't like being the Water God, but when I encounter situations where 'things that originally belonged to me are being played with skillfully by others,' 'all the admiring glances that belong to me are going to others,' and I can only watch helplessly, and even get yelled at by my former subordinates... Waaah.
Miss Fulina immediately activated her alternate personality mode—"Mine! Mine! All of those are mine!"
Fortunately, there were more important things to deal with, so Funina gave up on dwelling on these complicated feelings.
While doing this might not be in accordance with regulations, it must be said that the banner of "Water God" is indeed very useful. As the "God of Justice," personally helping suspects investigate and clear their names is truly awesome!
Ying, who was being watched, was taken to the side courtyard with a bewildered look on her face.
Then she noticed some excited gazes—from 'Fucho'.
The intensity of that gaze caused Miss Ying to instinctively take two steps back.
This guy... could he be planning something weird to do to me?
Unfortunately, for safety reasons, Ying's bladeless sword has been confiscated—even if she wanted to defend herself, there was nothing she could do but watch Funina warily and protect herself.
Don't even think about anything sexual! Even if you give me enough raw stones... it won't work! Probably!
"Hmph, it seems that it's not me who's being treated as the bad guy, but you." The blue-and-white-haired girl next to her took a sip of her red tea and teased Funina in a mocking tone.
The latter choked, her face turning slightly red—embarrassed, she quickly explained to Ying:
"Don't misunderstand, I'm not a good person."
"No...no, I'm a good person!"
Funina is certainly not the type of person who panics in the face of trouble, well... at least when she's alone—except when she encounters someone with a strong personality.
But perhaps because she knew from Jiang Qiao that the girl in front of her was related to the prophecy, Fu Ningna was still a little nervous, which led to her making a slip of the tongue.
Although the correction was made in time, Ying's expression still became more wary.
At just the right moment, the fairy Airi retorted in her sweet, childlike voice:
Would a good person introduce themselves as a good person when introducing themselves to others?
Ying nodded in deep agreement.
Great, you have vocal cords now, and from the same manufacturer (I'm sure).
"...Stop it, don't sabotage me!"
"Really, really, I'm a good person, you can ask him if you don't believe me! He can vouch for me!" In order to gain the trust of the wary Ying, Fu Ningna had no choice but to seek Jiang's endorsement.
Ying followed the gaze and looked at Jiang, who was smiling gently and nodding at her in the 'Funinna' pose. She nodded in return.
This one is clearly much more credible than Funinna!
After all, the other party had said a few words in her favor during the court hearing. Although the outcome didn't seem very clear, Miss Ying, who was grateful for the favor, had obviously accepted it.
Besides, this person clearly looks much more reliable than the man next to him!
Okay, ask me anything you want, I'll cooperate completely!
Ying sat very upright, like a model student, looking very cooperative.
Miss Funina was so angry that her cheeks hurt.
I actually need 'Funingna' to help me prove I'm a good person—that Jiang Qiao! She took my body as a good person, and now she's making me the bad guy, huh!
This is worse than being a water god! At least I wouldn't feel so stifled... Well, actually, it seems like it would be better not to be a water god.
At least the right to be angry about something is indeed one of the human rights.
People use these methods to vent their frustrations: laughing heartily when they want to laugh, crying bitterly when they want to cry, and venting their anger when they are angry—perhaps many of these can indeed be called 'unnecessary'.
It can also be called a 'human defect'.
But it is precisely because of this 'flaw' that humans are human.
During her time as [Jiang Qiao], Fu Ningna experienced what she had been pursuing for the past five hundred years, but which was not so suitable for her as a 'god'.
Of course—Frinna never forgot her mission, even though she was 'taken away from her body' in such a cunning way, she was still preparing for Fontaine's prophecy.
Over the course of five hundred years, Furynna entrusted her subordinates and the pure water spirits scattered throughout Teyvat with the help of countless others to act as her spies, attempting to glean useful information from them.
However, they still gained nothing.
Now, it seems that I have finally found a breakthrough.
That's the blond-haired girl in front of me.
However, Funina soon discovered something that gave her a headache.
"...Are you really mute?"
“...No... at all!” Ying puffed out her cheeks in dissatisfaction, speaking in a rather difficult and awkward way—undoubtedly, this was a huge problem facing her.
The girl named Luminous doesn't actually understand the Teyvat language—of course, it's not that she doesn't understand it at all, but she's basically at the stage where she can barely understand some of the meaning. As for anything more complicated, or if she's asked to describe things accurately, then Luminous is truly a mute girl without Paimon.
And there's nothing we can do about it, since Ying is actually an extraterrestrial visitor—as an outsider, she was completely clueless about the Teyvat continent without some kind of 'language communication device'.
That's why she didn't speak in the opera house—she couldn't understand it, could she? Yingmei could only vaguely deduce from the manner and appearance of those people that she seemed to have been taken to court.
"I see." Furina was a little annoyed—if that's the case, then she'd have to have someone teach the child Teyvat first, otherwise it would be impossible to communicate...wait.
Her gaze slowly fell on 'Frinna', and suddenly she remembered something:
"you......"
This guy wasn't actually speaking Teyvat at first, was he?!
"Oh dear, it seems you've remembered." The blue-and-white-haired girl sipped her red tea, leaned back on the sofa, and gave a slightly natural smile.
In reality, the languages of different worlds are naturally different—this problem has occurred in the neighboring Star Iron.
It was later the invention of the synesthetic beacon by a member of a certain club of great intelligence that changed this situation, allowing different races in the universe to communicate with each other.
This was not a problem for Jiang Qiao.
Language is the foundation upon which civilization begins; it carries the past, remembers the present, and extends into the future.
No matter what kind of civilization it is, it is difficult to change this point; it is only a difference in form.
For him, who had mastered the power of 'reason', language was one of the manifestations of reason.
It is humanity's explanation of the world.
As for Sakura Kyoko, who came before Jiang Qiao, she also had her own methods. As a magical girl, Kyoko's way of communicating was a unique method among magical girls: the 'team channel'—which was essentially 'communication of souls'.
By allowing our souls to connect, we can directly perceive each other's thoughts, thus abandoning the level of 'explanation' and completing communication directly at the level of 'exchange'.
"Then I'll trouble you with this next step, Fairy Ellie. Could you help this deaf-mute lady install her 'vocal cords'?"
Chapter 246 Even though it's today, we still need to be responsible for yesterday.
"Ah...ah..." Ying Shan opened her mouth slightly, and tentatively asked in surprise, "Hello?"
That sweet voice, unique to young girls, brought tears to Miss Ying's eyes—she could finally speak in a way that others could understand.
"It looks like it's working well." Jiang Qiao nodded with satisfaction.
Funina, however, was somewhat surprised:
"Hey, what did you do?"
She only saw the fairy Ellie and Jiang Qiao huddled together and messed with Ying for a while, and then Ying was able to speak.
