Genshin Impact: Funina's Official Pastry Chef

Chapter 79 Chang Ming, a plot catalyst

Chang Ming knew very well that no matter whether it was the "prophecy" or the "sinner's dance", they ultimately led to only one question:

——Can Navilette, the second generation Water Dragon King who took back the power of the ancient dragons... forgive the sins of the Fontaine people?

From a standpoint, Navilette, as the Dragon King of the Water Element, should be completely opposed to humans. Asking him to forgive the "sins" of the Fontaine people is... harder than climbing to the sky.

But he is Navilet, a dragon king born in human form.

At the invitation of Fucaros, he became the supreme judge of Fontaine, and witnessed the human drama for five hundred years with his gray eyes.

Once he recognized the meaning of humanity, he would naturally forgive the sins of the people of Fontaine.

And the process of Villette recognizing the "meaning of human beings" is, to put it bluntly, the process of how an ancient dragon views and understands human beings.

Chang Ming, who owns the script, is very clear about this, so... he needs to push the process forward, and naturally this problem arises.

After hearing Chang Ming's words, Villette fell into a brief silence, and Navia and Ying naturally turned their eyes to him, waiting for his answer.

After nearly three minutes of silence, Villette finally spoke:

"...I have always viewed humans as "some kind of creatures."

"The desire to continue to exist in this world, the desire to continue to live, is an instinct deeply rooted in the blood of every living thing."

"In my previous understanding, I thought that humans did not have the ability to resist biological instincts and biological rules, and I did not think that they would regard certain things as more important than their own lives."

"But the things that happened to me recently...completely overturned my previous understanding."

"Vasher, who did all kinds of evil for 'love' and was willing to exchange his life for it in the end, and Kares, who sacrificed his life for 'responsibility' and 'justice'..."

"Their presence made me realize one thing: the highest position in the opera house really blocks a lot of things, so I don't have a comprehensive understanding of many things."

"Perhaps... most of the human race is not what I thought."

As soon as he finished speaking, the figure of Watling suddenly appeared in Villette's mind, and his appearance seemed to confirm the conclusion that Villette had now reached.

It seemed that this figure touched Villette. He raised his head slightly, looked at Chang Ming and Navia beside him, and said softly:

"Thanks to Mr. Chang Ming and everyone at the Cimei Club for their hard work."

Hearing this, Chang Ming nodded first, then looked at Navia who was obviously at a loss beside him, and the smile on his face became more and more intense.

"This can be considered a reconciliation... And Villette's definition of human beings is clearer than in the original script, which is also a good thing."

While thinking this, Chang Ming gave Ying beside him a look, indicating that she should leave the next space for the two of them.

Ying naturally understood Chang Ming's meaning. She nodded slightly and followed Chang Ming to the small hill nearby.

"Leave the space to them first. If you have any other questions, you can ask me first. If I can't give you an answer...you can ask Villette."

Ying nodded gently, then asked:

"Have you seen a... traveler who looks similar to me, with blond hair like me?"

Chang Ming lowered his head when he heard that, and habitually reached out his hand to touch his chin, then shook his head with some regret.

"I'm sorry, but I haven't seen any other blond travelers besides you. After all, I'm the regent, and I'm involved in all matters big and small in Fontaine."

"If a traveler dressed in special attire came to Fontaine...I would probably know about it."

"But even so, if I meet your blood relatives in the future, I will inform you as soon as possible."

Hearing this, Ying nodded somewhat disappointedly.

Although she had expected Chang Ming's answer, it would be a lie to say that she was not sad at all, and she gave up asking that question to Violet.

After all, Chang Ming, as the regent, has never seen his brother, let alone Navilette, whose job has nothing to do with this issue.

Looking at Ying who was feeling a little depressed, Chang Ming sighed silently in his heart, then said slowly:

"But then again, you are now well-known figures in Fontaine. Take advantage of this time to walk around Fontaine Court more. You may find something unexpected."

Hearing this, Ying nodded slightly, and Paimon seemed to see that Ying was not in a good mood, so he changed the subject:

"Oh, right, Chang Ming has been in Fontaine for so long, he must know a lot of interesting places, right? For example, what delicious food is there in Fontaine?"

"The chefs at the Debo Hotel are very good. If you're lucky... you might even be able to eat their special cakes, which are limited to 500 pieces a day."

“Eh?! Limited supply cake? It’s hard to imagine what it would taste like…”

Paimon tilted his head curiously, as if he was very curious about the cake.

......

As Chang Ming and Paimeng chatted casually, Ying's mood gradually returned to normal.

After making sure Ying had no other questions for him, Chang Ming suddenly remembered something very important...

Is today the time he and Leosley agreed to pick up their weapons?

Thinking of this, Chang Ming raised his head slightly, roughly confirmed the time, and then looked at Navia and Navilette who were still talking. For a moment, he was speechless about his arrangements.

"Ah... If I had known earlier, I would have asked Sedna to convey it to me..."

Chang Ming complained about himself in his heart and said to Ying in front of him:

"I'm sorry, both of you. At this time... it's almost time for me to meet with the person in charge of Melo Petersburg. I have to leave first. Please help convey my apologies to the two of you."

Hearing this, Ying was stunned at first, then nodded slightly.

"I'll talk to them."

"sorry to bother you."

After saying that, Chang Ming walked towards the pier at Baisong Town without looking back.

Ying quietly looked at Chang Ming's hurriedly departing back, sighing slightly.

"The work of the regent is really busy..."

"Yeah, it's really hard to imagine how much work Chang Ming has to do on a normal day..."
