Hello, Ms. Funina

Standing at the harbor, Linnet sighed softly.

This mission is really troublesome!

By the way, why hasn't the traveler who is the target of the mission come yet? I've been waiting for a long time, and my legs are numb.

Looking at the blue sea, Linnet just felt bored.

Unfortunately, in [Father's] plan, she was the first step to establish contact with the traveler.

"Special mission, free play... What is free play?"

This is what annoyed Linnet the most. [Father] let them play freely, as long as they can get closer to the traveler. However, this kind of free play is like you invite everyone to dinner and ask what they want to eat, and then someone says whatever.

Free play is the most troublesome. There is no reference, no standard of measurement. For a while, Linnet didn't know how to perform.

After all, she had never seen the traveler, and she only knew that wherever the traveler went, major things happened.

The dragon disaster in Mondstadt, the demon invasion in Liyue, the rebellion of Inazuma against the Thunder God, Xumi... the earthquake rescue hero in Xumi.

Hiss! Why did this traveler suddenly change his style when he arrived at Xumi?

Linnett couldn't figure it out, but it didn't affect her mission.

"Um... um, are you okay?"

Suddenly, a strange voice sounded in her ears. Linnett tilted her head slightly, and two mission targets appeared in her field of vision.

The blond traveler and his white mascot.

"Thank you, I'm fine."

Linnett replied coldly.

Now it's good. She was just worrying about how to get in touch with the other party, but the other party came over and took the initiative to talk.

"Hey, really? But you look like you have something on your mind, and you seem to be troubled."

The white flying object Paimon showed a concerned expression, while the traveler Kong looked around calmly, thinking about when Linnett's brother would appear.

"Sometimes, many things can only be hidden in the heart, and cannot be confided to others, nor can they be revealed... There is nothing we can do about it."

Linette looked lost, and she covered her chest with her right hand, looking very sad and painful.

At this time, Linette, who graduated from the Bufadi Mansion and the Fatui Vocational Higher Skills School, had already started her performance.

"I am just reminiscing about the place where I played with my brother when I was a child... It was on that little mound, you see... Unfortunately, it is already underwater."

Linette pointed to the sea and said.

"Uh... Did you play in the sea when you were a child? Could it be that you and your brother are mermaids and lived in the sea when you were a child?"

Paimon was shocked.

Sora, who has already been in the second round, did not comment on this. Everything here is developing according to his memory.

Because his bottom was explored by Arachno in Inazuma, Sora was not sure what would happen to Fontaine and how the prophecy of Fontaine would be resolved.

But Sora knew that when he arrived at Fontaine, he had better put away the idea of ​​speed running. Arachino, who knows him inside and out, will definitely do everything in secret. Maybe when he was with Inazuma, Arachino had already turned him into her chess piece.

This is the scary thing about Arachino. This woman always calculates everything unconsciously.

What Kong hates most is dealing with such overly smart people, because his IQ cannot beat this old shady man who specializes in gambling and scheming... cough cough, strategist, strategist!

"Although people always call the water around Fontaine the sea... but in fact, the water of Fontaine is not salty and hard to swallow sea water, it is just an inland lake full of fresh water. It's just a little bigger."

"Although the small mound is still clearly visible in my memory, it is now lying on the seabed... but the place where we once jumped, raised sand, and felt the sea breeze and sunshine has indeed been submerged by the sea."

"Fontaine in the Land of Water is being swallowed up by water little by little... first our memories, then ourselves."

Linette tried to say sad words in a sad tone, but it was a pity that she, who had a blank expression and spoke coldly for many years, could hardly do it.

However, or perhaps it was Linette's coldness that she had maintained for many years, and her words at this time had a surprising effect, causing Paimon to resonate deeply.

Although he didn't understand, Paimon felt the deep sadness and powerlessness in Linette.

"That, I don't quite understand..."

Paimon shook his head and said.

Linnet didn't answer immediately. After all, she was just a girl who was sentimental about the past, and her attention to Paimon and Sora was just accidental.

According to [Father's] plan, it was Linnet's turn next.On stage.

Although it was free play, the actors of Fontaine were well prepared for the general order of appearance and the rhythm of the play.

"Oh my, faces I haven't seen before! Oh~ Are you Linnet's new friends?"

A voice more lively than Linnet's sounded, and a boy in a tuxedo, a magic hat, and stickers on his face came over.

"Hey, you are..."

Paimon looked at the owner of the voice and asked a question.

And Sora was still just watching. Sure enough, everything was the same as in the first round. It seems that Arlechino has already arranged it. I'd better wait.

"Haha! Let me introduce myself. My name is Linnie. The one next to you is my sister Linnet. Thank you for taking care of my sister. She often misses her childhood at the beach, don't worry. What about you? You look like foreign travelers!"

Linnie's generous conversation and polite smile make people feel comfortable.

"Hmm, hello, I'm Paimon. This is Sora. We both just arrived at Fontaine... sort of?"

Paimon said, looking at Sora uncertainly.

After all, she remembered that Sora was reborn and they traveled through the seven kingdoms together.

"Well, we came from Xumi and just arrived at Fontaine."

Sora smiled and nodded, indicating that Paimon should talk to the other party and play the role of a guide, while he would start to be mute.

Lower your own score to prevent the end from Tartaglia fighting the Whale of Devouring Stars, and he would fight it.

Paimon, who had a tacit understanding with Sora, naturally understood this. After all... the fourth seat of the Fatui executive [Servant] Arlechino, who defeated Sora and looked very scary and not easy to mess with, was in Fontaine.

"We were just chatting with your sister, uh... although it didn't seem to make sense."

"Oh~ I see, it's rare to see Linnet willing to talk to you, she usually doesn't talk much. So, what are you talking about? Can you tell me, maybe I'll know!"

Linnie said.

"Well, nothing much, just sea water, flooding and so on..."

At this time, in a room in Harbor Helu, actress Fernina and her atmosphere foils Alechino, Krewe and Clorinde were waiting for their parts.
