[Reward: Body Part Enhancement *1]
Chapter 269 Funina in Jail
"By harnessing the power of the Great Tree King?"
Jiang Qiao's expression was somewhat strange at Ergolia's suggestion.
The former was somewhat confused.
"...What's wrong?"
“The Great Compassion Tree King died five hundred years ago. The current Grass God of Sumeru is the Little Auspicious Grass King.”
"...How could this be?!" Upon hearing this news, Agoria was shocked and somewhat incredulous: "After me, the war in Kanria should have ended. Although the Great Tree King did indeed suffer a great loss, he shouldn't have died, right?"
After sleeping for five hundred years, Ergolia never expected that she would hear such shocking news as soon as she woke up.
"You'll have to ask Ahmar about that."
“Akhmar…you mean the Red King? He should have died long ago.” Egolia was taken aback when she heard the name. Although she had been imprisoned for a long time, during her free time, Egolia had been very concerned about her neighbor, Sumeru.
Furthermore, with the ability to use water veins as an intelligence network, her knowledge of information about the mainland is second only to the Wind God who can obtain information through the breeze.
The god revered as the Crimson King was defeated a thousand years ago. When discussing this matter with the Tree King, the Tree King's expression was not quite right.
"Forget it, if the Great Compassion Tree King is no longer here, finding the successor, the Little Auspicious Grass King, should be fine. As the Goddess of Wisdom, I believe her judgment in choosing a successor is absolutely correct."
To adjust the seal of the Ten Thousand Mother Trees, all you need is the power of a demon god of the same level as the Great Kindness Tree King. Ergolia thinks that even if the Little Lucky Grass King, as a second-generation god, is slightly weaker, he shouldn't be too much worse than the previous generation of grass gods, right?
"You're looking for Little Lucky Grass Queen? She's in jail right now."
Imprisonment—a word that was so familiar to Ergolia.
"...She also did something against all reason and law?!"
Ergolia was somewhat surprised—the situation on Sumeru shouldn't be as urgent as it was on Fontaine's side, right? Logically speaking, the biggest threat here was actually right under her body.
As for being imprisoned, she wasn't surprised.
Like her, who is the heart of the primordial womb, the Grass Goddess, who has a close connection with the World Tree, is also the kind of person who is 'irreplaceable'.
For demons of their type, the laws of nature cannot be easily replaced.
"Oh, no, she's being held there by the Order of the Church."
"The Order of the Church... wait, you mean... humans?" Miss Agoria was a little confused, thinking about what exactly the Order of the Church was, before she suddenly realized what it meant, her eyes widening in disbelief.
No, this is too surreal!
Little Lucky Grass King is a grass god, a demon god!
Although demons all desire to stand shoulder to shoulder with humanity, everyone knows that the gap between humans and demons is astronomical. Even though there are indeed exceptionally powerful individuals among them, comparable to gods, because they started on completely different levels, the demons imprisoned by humans...
This is so embarrassing!
'Funina's' expression was also somewhat subtle—or rather, Fukaros's.
Being with Jiang Qiao allowed her to see some of the information that Jiang Qiao shared.
This naturally includes that little lucky grass king.
They are both actually second-generation gods, but if we disregard Frinina, the disguised monster who tarnishes the reputation of the Water Goddess, the difference between them is...
No, even if Fryna is a complete weakling, she's still much better than the current Grass God!
Although Funina is weak, she is quite well-connected in Fontainebleau, and everyone respects their water goddess.
The grass god Nasita fell into disdain among her people, was abandoned, and wanted to create another god to replace her.
If other gods knew about a god who was disliked and abandoned by his people, they would laugh themselves to death.
How can a god end up in such a miserable state?
Even a dog wouldn't go this far; it's worse than a dog.
"this....."
Ergolia was dumbfounded.
No, after I slept for five hundred years, has the living environment of the gods in Teyvat become so harsh?
The pace of progress is just too fast!
"Our Fontaine is still better..." This was the only way Ergolia could console herself.
At least Fontaine wouldn't go so far as to imprison the gods, would it?
At this moment, 'Furina' raised an eyebrow, as if she sensed something.
He gently raised his hand, and a small figure floated in from outside the tree.
Its pinkish color and familiar appearance surprised Fucarus.
"A fairy... Airi?!"
"Weren't you supposed to stay in Fontainebleau to enjoy the scenery?" A mixture of surprise and slight nervousness tinged Miss Fukaros's expression as she secretly clenched her fist. Damn it, how did this little thing get here! My trip for two!
"Yes, but the scenery in Fontaine is actually just so-so. I already saw most of it when I took the rail boat. It's all just water."
"I heard that the scenery here in Xumi is very different, so I came here."
"Besides—the fairies from the Kingdom of Celestial Music have the responsibility to supervise me, so how can they easily abandon their posts!" Fairy Airi blinked her innocent big eyes and said something impeccable.
"Could it be that I, in my mischievous ways, am planning to do something strange with other girls while I'm away?"
"If someone is plotting something like that, I, Fairy Ellie, will definitely not stand idly by."
Fukalos was somewhat annoyed, but Jiang Qiao didn't care—'Funina' simply crossed her arms and asked another question:
"Since you've come along to Sumeru, what about her?"
"She...it seems she went to Mello Petersburg."
"what?"
Upon hearing this, Fukalos was completely stunned.
Jiang Qiao was also somewhat surprised.
The fairy Ellie then used her sweet voice to explain the reason—
"Furina, where should we go next?"
"Hmm..." Funina hesitated. Although the scenery in Fontainebleau was quite beautiful, she didn't really know how fun the place was.
Her daily routine mainly consisted of eating small cakes, going to the opera house to watch the drama trial, or playing with her kittens.
She can manage this kind of thing on her own, but she can't exactly take the fairy Ellie with her, can she?
Wait a minute—I've got it.
"How about we go collect seashells?"
Collecting seashells on the beach is obviously a very romantic and interesting thing. Fulina recalled that two hundred years ago, when her mental exhaustion was not so great, she actually liked to collect seashells during the dry season.
"Yeah."
Collecting seashells is obviously not illegal, but the problem is that they collected a lot of bivalve shells.
It just so happened that someone with ulterior motives, a die-hard fan of the Water God, caught it and reported it directly to the Mo Mang Palace.
Faced with this dilemma, Navelette, after a moment of hesitation, delivered her verdict upon seeing the two men brought in by the security detail:
"I'm sorry, but according to Fontaine's laws, bivalves harvested during the dry season belong to the water god, while mule clams belong to the people. You two..."
"Since you two wish to experience Fontainebleau's style, why not visit Melo Petersburg next?"
"That's what he said."
"Yes, Vilette is indeed a very fair and impartial judge."
The fairy Ellie, who described the situation at the time, praised Navelette's impartial enforcement of the law.
Fukaros was somewhat bewildered, "Wait... why are there such outrageous laws?"
Having just been released from the Cardinals of Decree, Fukalos was clearly unaware of the legal changes in Fontaine over the past five hundred years.
"...Let me see." Jiang Qiao was both amused and exasperated as she flipped through the memories belonging to Funina stored in this body.
"oh....."
"This law was introduced to curb the overfishing of bivalves for a period of time. Funinna provided this solution, and to maintain the stability of the law, it couldn't be changed afterward, so it remained unchanged. It has now become a custom of respecting the gods..."
"...What's wrong?" Jiang Qiao, who had been browsing through this part of the memory, noticed Fukaros's unusual behavior and was somewhat puzzled. The latter whispered in a barely audible voice, "Be quieter, slower..."
The manipulation of memory is an unfamiliar area for most people.
Even a god like Fucarus is no exception.
However, after obtaining the 50,000-year-old memories of Paradise Ellie, Jiang Qiao pointed out the 'skills' in this area in order to make more effective use of the memories.
However, it is clear that not everyone can adapt to his behavior of delving into memories.
