Genshin Impact: Funina's Official Pastry Chef

As the saying goes, "A storm is about to come."

After the initial eruption of the water from the primordial fetal sea, the peace that Fontaine had finally achieved was completely broken.

The town of Baisong was completely destroyed by the rising water of the primordial sea, the regent Chang Ming disappeared, and heavy rains poured down in Fontaine...

These three things alone made the people of Fontaine panic-stricken, and the water god's silence made them even more worried about their future.

Although some of her previous actions were endorsed by the regent, now... Mr. Chang Ming himself was swept away by the primordial fetal sea and disappeared because of the decision of the water god.

Trust between people is a very abstract thing.

It can be very strong, just like the trust between Chang Ming and Funina.

But it can also be very fragile, just like...the trust that the people of Fontaine now have in Funina.

Funina remained silent about her plan and was confused about the decision of the "Cardinal of the Decree"...

These two points alone have torn a huge hole in the trust between her and the people of Fontaine.

Although Chang Ming has tried his best to mend the gap, the rift in trust...even if you try your best, you may not be able to repair it as before.

——What’s more, such an accident happened.

......

When Funina returned to Momang Palace from the opera house, she could clearly sense that...the way people around her looked at her had changed.

Originally, they looked at me with respect and expectation, but now...

They looked at him with eyes full of suspicion and confusion, and some even... showed a little disgust.

All of this made Funina feel a little anxious, but she still comforted herself in her own way as always.

"It's almost over...it will definitely be over soon. She will definitely not lie to me. She will eliminate the crisis brought about by the prophecy as promised!"

"Hold on a little longer, Funina, just hold on a little longer..."

Just like that, the girl who had been carrying Fontaine alone for five hundred years lowered her head slightly and quickened her pace back to Momang Palace.

Furninna is not afraid of anything. Even if she is asked to face death, she will not frown.

But she was only afraid of seeing that kind of look in the eyes of the people of Fontaine.

Because... her identity has been questioned, and the mission assigned to her by "the self in the mirror" is going to fail.

She had shouldered this inhuman responsibility for five hundred years! One hundred and eighty-two thousand three hundred and seventy-six days and nights of hard work would be wiped out in an instant. This was what she was afraid of.

"Don't...don't look at me like that..."

Feeling the increasingly suspicious gazes, Finina's heart trembled slightly, but the only thing she could do was to raise her head again and walk past them as if nothing had happened.

Because what the gods do does not require mortals to understand, everything the gods do... does not need to be explained to mortals.

Only in this way can she maintain her own style, and only in this way can she not be swallowed up by the doubts like a flood and a beast.

But...it's only a matter of time before it's swallowed up.

Funina knew that under the pressure of crisis, when lives were threatened...the contradictions that had been lurking in people's hearts would one day erupt completely.

And this is just the beginning.

Just like that, Funina walked back to Momang Palace, appearing calm on the outside but already in chaos on the inside.

She gently pushed open the door of Mo Mang Palace and looked at the dim light in Mo Mang Hall. A feeling of loneliness suddenly crept into her heart.

The girl stood at the door for a while, then she sighed imperceptibly and prepared to go to Chang Ming's office to heal herself a little.

"Lady Funina!"

However, before the girl stepped into the gate of Mo Mang Palace, a somewhat childish voice came from behind her, which frightened her greatly.

She turned her head dazedly and found that it was Sedna standing behind her. She then slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

"...It's Sedna... What's going on?"

Sedna nodded her head heavily, then spread her hands, pointed to Villette's office symbolically and said:

"Then Lord Villette asked me to tell you that you should go to his office tomorrow morning to see him. He has some very important issues and events to report to you."

Hearing this, Funina was stunned at first, then nodded gently and said:

"Okay, I understand. Thank you for your hard work, Sedna."

"It's okay, Lady Funina. If you don't have anything else to do... then I'll leave first?"

Fu Nina nodded without saying anything, then walked towards the second floor of Mo Mang Palace with a heavy heart.

Sedna looked at the figure that gradually disappeared into the shadows, tilted her head slightly, and said to herself in confusion:

"Hmm...why does it feel like Lady Funina is very unhappy?"

But this is just Sedna's idea. To her, human emotions are actually difficult to understand.

Plus, she had witnessed how Chang Ming and Funina interacted with each other, so she thought that Funina was in a bad mood because of Chang Ming's disappearance.

She shook her head gently, then slowly closed the door of Momang Palace and left.

......

Funina came to Chang Ming's office.

Today, she did not sit on the chair she usually sat on as usual. Instead, she gently picked up Xiao Sanhua who had been curled up on the table and slowly sat in Chang Ming's seat.

She curled up in a ball on the chair, holding the little calico in her arms, as if she was enduring something.

And little Sanhua seemed to sense that her mistress's mood was not normal. With some difficulty, she poked her head out of Funina's arms and rubbed her face gently.

"Meow~"

Xiao Sanhua called out softly, hoping that this behavior would improve Funina's mood.

But it was this one touch...that completely broke down Funina's defense.

A crystal tear flowed down the corner of her eye, she sobbed softly, calling Chang Ming's name in a low voice.

At this moment, how she wished that Chang Ming could appear in front of her and gently comfort her just like he had done in the past 489 years.

But hope is just hope, not fact.

In this locked office...the girl's sobs echoed.

Only in such a completely closed place can she release her emotions a little.

"Chang Ming...what should I do?"
