Genshin Impact is a big stage, come if you dare

Chapter 869 Lonely Interpretation

After taking a deep breath, Funina stood on the podium and delivered her succession speech to all the people of Fontaine.

She mustered up the courage to announce to the world that she was the new water god, and then sincerely stated that she had no experience in becoming a country's new god, but she would do her best to bring everyone an era of fairness and justice!

Su was extremely worried. "That's not the way to say it!"

As a god, as the ruler of a nation, being sincere, polite, and easygoing meant being weak and vulnerable! Finina was there to be a ruler, not to make friends. The correct approach was to demonstrate her strength.

Sure enough, all kinds of noises came from the dark auditorium.

There were doubts, "Is this the new Water God? Could it be that the Privy Council is fooling us? As a god, I thought he would be more powerful..."

There was sarcasm, "Hey, did you hear that? She even asked us to give her some suggestions at the end! Haha..."

There was disappointment. "Aren't gods supposed to be omnipotent? She's so humble... How is she any different from an ordinary person?"

Some people worry, "She will easily be led by the nose by those cunning nobles! Ordinary people will have a harder time."

Someone questioned, "I suspect there's no new Water God at all! Isn't she just a puppet pushed up by the Court of Justice to appease the people?"

Su raised his hand and fired a volley of elemental bullets at the dark audience seats in an attempt to silence them, but he hit nothing.

Sora pressed the girl's hand to remind her to save her strength so that she could deal with possible dangers and abnormalities.

Sora: "There's actually nothing there. It's just a reappearance of Funina's memories."

Hearing the audience's reactions, Funina on the podium became very nervous.

This was only her first day on stage as the Water Goddess, but her identity was immediately questioned!

If this continues, her life and everyone else's will be in jeopardy...! No! No!

Finina clenched her fists tightly and then released them, her mind racing as she came up with a new plan in an instant.

Since her understanding of the water god is not what the people of Fontaine think the water god should be like, then she will interpret the water god in the audience's minds!

Strong, with presence, unconventional and unexpected!

"Hahahahaha!" The young girl on the podium burst into laughter. "Very good, very good, my people. Only you are worthy of my rule."

Funina walked down the stage leisurely, attracting everyone's gaze and attention as she pleased.

"I used to wonder, if one day a cowardly puppet stepped onto this stage and claimed to be the master of this opera house, would the people of Fontaine obey?"

"But now it seems... great! You are not such boring guys, and you are qualified to witness those wonderful trials with me in this opera house!"

The exaggerated character of Funina, who pursued twists and turns and a sense of comedy, was recognized by the people of Fontaine.

The questioning voices in the audience disappeared, replaced by cheers of surprise.

"So that was just a performance! I forgot this is an opera house... You truly are our God!"

"The new god actually has so much personality! It surprised me, but it's better than the cowardly image he had before."

"A god who is both interesting and powerful is truly wonderful. I should be able to rest assured in the future..."

Su was speechless. "Do the people of Fontaine really just love to eat melons and watch plays for fun?"

Sora was also speechless, but he still analyzed it from a rational perspective. "The Fontaine people are transformed from pure water elves who naturally crave affection, so it's normal for them to pursue conflict and drama... right?"

Funina seems to be a natural actor, and has become the most dazzling star in Fontainebleau Opera House.

"I heard that the sins of this country are incorrigible. It just so happens that the justice that blooms amidst sin is the most fragrant!"

"As long as it's at this Opikle Opera House, before this oracle judgement cardinal, I, the demon god Fukaros, can judge even the gods of the world!

The curtain slowly rose amid the audience's warm applause and cheers, and then the play entered the third act.

Having successfully taken over the position of the God of Water, Funina worked hard to understand the country and learn how to handle affairs, and her life gradually got back on track.

But as time goes by, the "grand finale" promised by the man in the mirror shows no sign of coming.

Su watched as Funina reviewed reports, attended trials, held meetings with officials, and met with believers to strengthen their faith...

"Her daily schedule is very full. Everything seems unimportant, but she has to do it." Su held his chin up in his hand. "Is this what it feels like to go to work?"

Sora: "Work is exhausting for most people, right? If it keeps going like this..."

Funina's daily life seems to be filled with work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work...

She used her private time to think of ways to deal with the prophetic crisis, and in the rare free time she had, she would sit alone and stare blankly.

Carrying a secret, she dared not make close friends with anyone, for fear that the weakness in her human nature would come out and ruin everything.

"Today is finally over. I barely had a moment to breathe after playing the Water God all day..."

Finina patted herself and said, "Huh...don't think too much. We still have to continue tomorrow. Get some rest."

Then the second day is no different in essence from the previous ten thousand days.

Day after day, year after year.

Finina's condition was getting worse and worse, like a flower on a cliff that was on the verge of withering but still struggling to survive.

Su looked at Funina like this and showed a sad expression.

Funina also used various methods to dispel her loneliness and adjust her state of mind.

But the gorgeous clothes, delicious food, opera, etc. could only make her happy for a moment. The prophecy that kept lingering in her mind made it impossible for her to be truly happy.

The agenda for this day is to receive believers.

Finina responded to the believers' boasting skillfully on the surface, but she was murmuring helplessly in her heart.

Hundreds of years have passed, maybe this drama will continue to play out for hundreds of years...

It's so long... so lonely... how much longer...

"Lady Funina?! Are you...are you crying?" The believer's surprised voice woke Funina up.

"Huh? Hahaha," Funina, who had experienced all kinds of ups and downs, responded skillfully: "Alas, I guess my body is too full of water element. There's really nothing I can do. After all, I am the god who controls the water element, hahaha..."

"No wonder, no wonder," the believers' doubts were easily dispelled, and their faith in the Water God became even stronger. "So this is a manifestation of your power, Lord God! I am so honored to witness this!"

Looking at the scene of Funina smiling and crying, Su felt an extreme loneliness and his heart ached.

Kong was silent for a moment, then confirmed, "Her spirit has long since reached its limit."

The red velvet curtain closed and opened, and the final act began immediately.

Looking at the new presence on the stage, Su was surprised, "That's... me?"
