Chapter 297 The Authority of Justice
Chapter 297 The Authority of Justice
Under Shiraki's control, the water elemental did not immediately disintegrate.
Aside from his appearance changing to resemble water, the engineer retained his normal speech ability.
After taking control of the water elemental, Shiraki nodded in Navelette's direction, giving him an approving look.
This minor incident has been resolved, and the trial continues, but given the current situation, the case is quite clear.
The key clue lies in the engineer's bottle of Fontaine, or rather, in the original water of the fetal sea within the Fontaine.
...
Looking at the situation in the arena, Shiramu narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he were resting with his eyes closed.
His thoughts wandered, and his attention focused on the device called the "Predictive Judgment Cardinal" hanging above his head.
I don’t know if it’s just my imagination, but Shiraki always felt that the device was “alive”.
It seems to have a life force inside it!
Faintly, Bai Mu felt a pulling force, a very gentle force, as if it was trying to pull his consciousness in a certain direction.
Bai Mu did not resist, letting the force pull at his consciousness.
He wanted to see what secrets this machine held.
"I knew that thing couldn't possibly be the real water god!"
Upon seeing the woman in front of him dressed in a blue and white gradient dress, Shiraki murmured unconsciously.
When Shiraki first saw Funina, he felt that she was a bit strange.
He always had the feeling that the other person was "an ordinary person who was called the water god".
Shiraki even felt that he was more like a water god than Funina.
When he saw Fucarus, he finally understood.
So the true water god was here.
"Greetings, Your Majesty the Dragon King. I apologize for meeting you in this manner."
Fukaros selectively ignored Shiraki's murmur.
She bowed slightly and solemnly greeted Bai Mu.
Although she wasn't entirely clear about Bai Mu's identity, Bai Mu was a dragon, and he was extremely powerful, so calling him "Dragon King" was definitely the right thing to do.
But little did anyone know, Bai Mu was no ordinary person.
"Uh, I'm not the Dragon King."
Upon hearing Fukaros address him as the "Dragon King," Shiraki immediately waved his hand, indicating that the other party had made a mistake.
Shiraki's words left Fukaros speechless for a moment.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became somewhat subtle.
"You gave me this, didn't you?"
After a brief silence, Shiraki spoke first, breaking the tense atmosphere.
He opened his palm, and a pale blue dot of light appeared in his palm.
Those were his insights that had been growing ever since he came to Fontainebleau.
"That's right, this is a gift I prepared for you. You should be able to use it, right?"
Before meeting Shiraki, Fukaros thought that Shiraki would like the gift she had carefully prepared.
But when she met Shiraki, she wavered.
When asked just now, Fukalos was clearly not very confident.
Seeing that Fukaros was clearly lacking in confidence, Shiraki carefully chose his words and uttered the most ridiculous sentence of his life.
"Well, it's alright. I feel like I've definitely become much stronger after obtaining this power."
Fucarus: ...
If Shiraki hadn't said anything, things would have been fine, but his words made Fukaros so ashamed that she didn't even dare to lift her head.
"You must need my help with something, right?"
"Tell me, and I'll help you."
Shiraki walked up to Fukaros, who had her head down, and gently patted her shoulder.
As a member of the dragon family, he has a great fondness for these little gadgets that are rich in water elements.
Moreover, Bai Mu still owes Feng Dan a favor.
Moreover, he was almost certain that Fucaros had given him this because he needed Fucaros's help.
As expected, Fukaros raised her head after Shiraki spoke.
"I do need your help."
Fukaros subtly recounted to Shiraki the crisis that Fontaine would face in the future.
After listening, Shiraki nodded.
"That's easy, I'll take care of it when the time comes."
According to Fukaros, the main force in dealing with the crisis was Navelette, while Shiraki served as an assistant.
Navelette will reclaim the power that belongs to the Dragon King, and Shiraki will need to assist Navelette in defeating the entity that threatens Fontaine.
Regarding how Navelette would regain her power, Fucaros only touched upon it vaguely, seemingly unable to elaborate further.
"With your assurance, I feel at ease."
After receiving Shiraki's assurance, Fukaros revealed a relieved smile.
Before Shiraki left, Fukaros suddenly called out to him.
"Please wait a moment, I have something else to give you."
Bai Mu's figure stopped dissipating and solidified again.
He looked at Fukalos with puzzlement, waiting for her to continue.
"I am both the god of water and the god of justice."
"Justice is also a power."
As she spoke, Fukaros opened her palm, and a small, golden dot appeared in her hand.
"After meeting you, I knew I hadn't paid you enough."
"I'm handing this over to you now as an extra reward."
Looking at the golden dot in Fukaros's palm, Shiraki raised an eyebrow.
To be honest, he used this thing.
Besides, even if he could use it, he wouldn't want it.
"Keep this, I don't need it."
"No, you can keep it. I won't need it in the future anyway."
“I would feel much more at ease if you took it away.”
Seeing that Shiraki was unwilling to take away the power of "justice", Fukaros seemed a little anxious.
She could see that Bai Mu was not whole at this moment.
She wasn't sure if this was Shiraki's normal state or a special condition.
Therefore, for Fontaine's safety, handing over the "justice" authority to Shiraki and allowing him to improve his strength is the best option at present.
"you..."
"Okay, I'll take it."
Shiraki didn't want this power, but when he met Fukaros's pleading gaze, he couldn't bring himself to refuse.
"Thank you..."
...
"Bang sha ka la..."
"Hey, Shiraki, you're awake!"
The trial had already ended before Shiraki regained consciousness.
The moment he opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was Funina dancing an unknown dance.
As Funina danced, she kept chanting words that Shiramu couldn't understand.
Fortunately, there are no outsiders in the opera house now, otherwise the great image of the Water God in front of the Fontaines would have collapsed.
Seeing that Shiraki had woken up, Funina skipped and hopped over to Shiraki's side.
Just as Shiraki was about to ask a question, Funina spoke first, explaining her behavior just now.
"Bai Mu, your wife just said you lost your soul. I happened to have learned the Liyue soul-calling technique before, and that's what I was doing just now!"
