"Ok?"
"Let me try..." The Great Tree King also became interested.
The power of the mere sun is nothing but a drop in the ocean before my god of wisdom!
After a long pause, Miss Tree King gave up, her lips pursed.
She was somewhat better off; she wasn't harmed by this power.
In terms of practicality, it's probably not much better than Fukaros.
It's completely different from his own wisdom and authority, and from Fucarus's righteous authority.
"As expected of something from the Primordial Beings..."
"You guys should pay attention to other people too." Jiang Qiao said helplessly. Although she didn't want to say it, she glanced at Fobs, who had been hit by the "sun" that had been "thrown" out and had already lost, and couldn't help but complain.
"Hey...why did he fall down?" Fucaros was surprised when she noticed, and then felt a little guilty:
"...Could it be that I did it?"
"This doesn't make sense. He clearly has the power of a demon god, how could he be defeated by a mere sun?" But she had deep doubts about this.
Indeed, the Red King's solar authority is very powerful; none of the demons dared to tremble before it.
However, the gap between them is not so large that one skill could instantly kill you.
Of course, let's leave aside Heuria for now.
"Because Phoebus was originally a product of imitation of fate, and it seems to have used some means to confront the 'sun' authority that represents Phanes, even if only in part. It is impossible for such a mere demon creation to withstand it."
"But Remus's power was ultimately stolen by his own creation... Sigh..." Agoria felt regret for this old friend she had only met a few times.
"Ah... indeed..."
Fukalos felt a little guilty.
Although it seems to have nothing to do with her, upon closer reflection, I realize that I did use some tricks to steal Ergolia's gold coins.
Although it was actually Jiang Qiao who did it, given the circumstances between them, she was at least an accomplice.
"Another fragment of the demon god."
After Phobos was destroyed, Jiang Qiao, who had just withdrawn the ball of light, sensed the details and twitched the corner of her mouth.
Needless to say, this piece belongs to Remus.
Because King Remus protected the royal city through sealing, under Phobos's scheme, this fragment of the demon god, which should have disappeared, was preserved just like the Red King's.
Jiang Qiao felt something was strange—if she went out to collect more, would she be able to reassemble Fanes?
Outside the royal city, Apep and Scylla's reunion seemed to have come to an end.
"Scylla, what are your plans after this?"
"Roar, me? I'll naturally follow the newborn Water Dragon King."
Skala's original idea was naturally to go for a swim in the sea first, after all, he had been sealed away for so many years. But after chatting with Apep, the prince of the water dragon changed his mind.
Why not go anywhere else for a trip? Let's go see our own king first. There will be plenty of opportunities to go elsewhere later.
'Furina' nodded:
"Then come back to Fontaine with us. I can help you reshape your body."
After being betrayed by Boethius, Scarla lost the body she had once been so proud of.
She could only rely on the Immortal Dew researched by Remus to prolong her life. Since it was a gift for Mr. Water Dragon, Jiang Qiao decided to do it as well.
"Huh? Is it really okay?"
Scylla was somewhat excited. Although it was already somewhat familiar with this body, to be honest, as the prince of the dragon lizards, it definitely preferred its old appearance.
"no problem."
"Then I'll leave it to you, Water God of Fontaine... Oh, and please make sure my body is sculpted to be presentable! So that I won't be impolite when I meet our King!" Scylla pleaded, as if remembering something.
Fairy Airi, however, was somewhat reluctant to part with them.
"Uh, are we really going to abandon this whale body...? The dragon lizard looks so ugly..."
She had seen creatures called dragon lizards along the way... Although living things can't be associated with being ugly, their fierce appearance made them look nothing like the whale in front of her!
"Hmph, little fellow, don't humiliate us dragon lizards—how could you mortals understand the nobility of my dragon lineage?" Scylla said with some displeasure.
“That’s very true.” Appepp nodded in deep agreement.
Upon hearing this request, 'Funina' instantly seemed to realize something and smiled:
"Appropriate... Hmm, no problem."
Ever since.
Back on the steamship in Fontainebleau, there was another small figure.
"So tiny, so cute~" Fairy Airi teased the small, petite figure, thoroughly enjoying herself.
Of course, the latter was not satisfied with this at all.
"Usurper, are you humiliating me?!" Looking at the adorable image in the mirror, Scylla, who had been fantasizing about how majestic and domineering she would be if she returned to her former self, glared angrily at the culprit, 'Frinna'.
The life force belonging to Egolia and the Great Tree King, combined with the power of creation and death, ultimately created the image that is known to every household in Fontaine—Melushin.
"No, no, I did exactly what you asked."
"Huh? This isn't what you're asking for!" Skala was furious, but looking at that adorable little face, she actually found it kind of cute.
It accused:
"If I were to appear before my king in this form, what face would I, a dignified prince of the dragon lizards, have?"
"Oh dear, this is what it means to be out of touch with the times."
"Your current Water Dragon King, our Supreme Judge, is most fond of Melusin."
"What?! Our king actually likes such petite creatures? This is truly..."
"That's right, according to the prophecy, the newborn Water Dragon King will be in human form..."
"No, don't try to change the subject. I won't be fooled by you so easily!" Scala sensed something was wrong and said with great dissatisfaction, "What does this have to do with how you made me look like this?"
“Look, over there on the shore.” 'Furina' pointed to the shore, where the steamship had returned to Fontaine from Softlight Harbor and arrived at the nearby island of Irie.
And on the shore, there happened to be a small figure.
"Hmm?...This is the Melusin you were talking about?"
Skala, who had disembarked from the ship, stared at Perseif with some suspicion:
"...No, that familiar scent..."
"Young man, are you a water dragon lizard?!"
"...?!"
“Perseif!” The familiar dragon lizard language brought a touch of nostalgia to Skala, but upon seeing Perseif before it, it felt a surge of displeasure: “Could it be that you, too, were manipulated by that usurper?”
As it spoke, it glared at Jiang Qiao.
Persephone tilted her head and thought for a while.
"Melushin! Because that visitor...liked it!"
"Familiar? You're also a blue thing?" Percy asked, half questioning and half delighted.
The strange language left Skala somewhat bewildered, but fortunately, as a dragon lizard, she could barely understand it.
After learning the reason why the water dragon in front of them was mimicking Melusin,
Scylla fell into a long silence.
This dragon prince has inexplicably become somewhat withdrawn.
No... It's because the Dragon King really likes Melisandre, so in order to win his favor, you all went out of your way to imitate Melisandre's appearance?
The thought of the once mighty and powerful water dragon that roamed Teyvat turning into the whimpering Melusin made Skala's vision go black.
After learning of this situation, Apep, who was initially somewhat dissatisfied, immediately fell silent.
...Has the water dragon fallen to such a state?
Thank goodness, thank goodness my grass dragon lizard... Hmm? Where is my grass dragon lizard?
As the Grass Dragon King, he was originally glad that his clan and its retinue hadn't fallen to such a state, but suddenly he discovered a blind spot: he didn't seem to have seen a single Grass Dragon Lizard along the way.
It is said that Apep's main family members are actually the Tank Beasts, but as the oldest creatures in Teyvat, the Dragoon also exists as a Grass Dragoon.
At this moment, Appepp's entire team was in a bad state.
Oh no, where are my retinue?!
...
As Jiang Qiao returned to Fontaine with a bountiful harvest, far away in front of the Pure Goodness Palace in Sumeru, Alicia, who had just been released from prison, gazed at the distant Fontaine, her beautiful blue eyes blazing with fire.
"You wicked Jiang Qiao, just you wait!!!"
