Funina couldn't hold back.

Laughter and anger were mixed on her face at the same time, and she couldn't help but make some kind of mocking sound at Rama's sudden answer, but Rama's indifference made her very angry.

The conventional response of "Yes, it is true that there are some unexpected changes in the plan, but please don't worry", naturally we have various plans as coping strategies, which are enough to deal with the vast majority of risks - but certainly not absolutely deal with all risks, there are always some unexpected factors that cannot be prevented at all.

And Rama's answer is don't worry, although we can't handle it, but we run fast, and disasters can't catch up with us······

Is it human?

This answer is absurd and humorous, so much so that Funina's first reaction is that Rama is playing treasure at such a time, deliberately doing something perverse to amuse everyone.

If that's the case, Funina is willing to admit that she was really laughed at.

But this was just the first reaction, and the next moment her head began to work, she suddenly realized that Rama was not such a person.

He doesn't mind playing the Joker to get something important to him, but the premise is clear that He needs good.

There is obviously nothing good about this, and His words are true thoughts.

Yes, things went unexpectedly again, but it didn't matter, I could run, so I didn't panic.

"I don't seem to have a reason to be angry?" Fucarus sighed.

Unlike Funingna, who was so angry that he looked calm, he clearly did not feel the need to be angry because of Rama's answer.

"You certainly don't have a reason to lose your temper with me." Rama took it for granted, "I didn't make the plan, and I didn't control the big whales that I used, so if there were any unexpected factors, I certainly wouldn't have to be responsible for it." ”

"I'm a beneficiary of the program, but I'm not the only beneficiary of the program."

He glanced at Funina, and with the patience of the adults to forgive the child, "But she can lose her temper with me, because she always believes that the god of water is responsible for this country, so whether the plan is my hand or not, I should be responsible for the future Fontaine." ”

"But she was wrong." "Because you can't be counted as a true god of water in our dealings. ”

"The power of the god of water in the future will be completely divided." Rama spread his hands, "I can't participate in Fontaine's specific decisions, I can't mobilize Fontaine's army, the only thing I enjoy is the faith that the god of water deserves." ”

If it weren't for that, Rama's first step would not have been so tortuous.

He didn't need to mobilize Fontaine's guards, he could solve a lot of problems on his own.

But in the original contract, he was just a clay puppet who enjoyed the faith of the people and stood up to deal with the danger when Fontaine was in danger, which was the only thing Rama had the right to do in his capacity as the god of water.

Funinga didn't know this, so she had a normal populace expectation of her own gods for Rama.

But this kind of expectation itself is something that does not exist, and things made of paper and clay can only protect people's hearts, but when it comes to a specific thing, it is still necessary to do one's best, and listening to the destiny of heaven is only a kind of persuasion for oneself, not really wanting to listen to the destiny of heaven.

"The timing is not right." Fucarus said helplessly, "It looks like we're going to have to do another thing we used to do this time in trouble." ”

In the contract, Rama had to obtain the faith of the people before he could begin his official work.

The people's reverence for the gods is itself a resource that can be obtained very easily, even if they do nothing, they only need to naturally complete the inheritance and replacement of the gods, and the people will contribute their faith to the new gods.

Even if they don't know the new gods of the country, it doesn't stop them from choosing to give their faith.

But this is a normal situation.

Rama's ascension to the throne was accompanied by his speech, which seemed to the people of Fontaine to be quite rebellious.

You can gain faith by doing nothing, but Rama did something.

Of course, this has now been proven, and Rama has other ideas and plans to carry out, and turning himself into a tyrant in the eyes of the people is only one step in his plan.

But the coincidence is here, because of Rama's operation, He himself did not receive any useful faith.

Although the former water god Fcarus is a hero who designed to sacrifice himself to save Fontaine, the people do not know that the Fcarus in their eyes is the Funina who has nothing to do at the Opéra Picole.

Such an predecessor, as the successor of the god of water, Funina, Rama himself did not receive anything useful from his "predecessors".

Rather, because the god of water is Funina, the majesty of the god of water has almost been swept away.

In this period, the people expect much more normal people from Naviette than from those who expect Funina, and it is true that Funina is not disgusting, but the people do not have much expectation and awe of her, and she is infinitely close to a mascot in essence.

Of course, you don't hate a cute kitten, but to be reasonable, if you count on this cat to save your life when you're in danger, it's pretty obvious why you're in such mortal danger.

As the inheritor of such a god, Rama couldn't get too many positive resources and inheritances from Funina.

In the years that Fucarus chose Funinga and disappeared herself, the power of the god of water in Fontaine had actually been "stolen" by the Supreme Inquisitor.

The people no longer need to care who the god of water is, they need to care more about the highest judge.

It's not Navillette's problem, it's Funina's problem.

She's not a very good god, even though she's not a god at all.

The power itself is limited, and during the period when she served as the god of water, the work she undertook was scarce, and the corresponding power naturally could not stay on her - someone had to make a decision, and the power to make a decision was left in a person who did not know anything, which was really a bit extravagant and wasteful.

She didn't make a decision, and the person who made the final decision became Navillette, and the decision of the matter naturally went into the hands of Navillette.

By this time, Fontaine's reign naturally favored Naviette rather than the god of water.

Rama took over such a situation.

Like Funina, at that time she needed to keep a secret that she was not a god, she looked around carefully, and finally decided that the person who needed to be wary of the most was the person she had to trust—Navillette was too strong, and if she didn't watch out for Navelette, he would easily discover that she was not the god of water. Counterfeiters who want to disguise themselves as genuine always have to put in more effort and preparation.

Fucarus left her with a perfect "minister", who was not in love with power but was also able to show a calm demeanor in his hands.

But he didn't tell Frina directly that you could trust Neverette, because he also knew that once Neverette realized that "Flokalos" was wrong, he would find a way to find herself.

At this point, the plan goes bankrupt.

When the wood is already in the boat, what is the heart of Villette, in the end, can only choose to accept.

But if he found out in advance, and Fucarus planned to sacrifice himself to solve the trouble, then Villette would probably not accept it.

Whether it's out of the pride of the ancient dragon, or something else, let him rely on the sacrifice of his friends to solve the problem, and of course he will take the initiative to stop it from happening.

But at that time, Fucarus thought about the final answer for a long time, and he naturally did not want his fifteenth version of his plan to be sent back, and was told that your plan would not be adopted.

That's a little too painful.

There is no neutral choice in this matter.

He described to Funina the necessity of disguising herself as Fucarus and deceiving the people, and almost always said and behaved in the same way - if you disguise yourself well, I will save all the people of Fontaine.

The reverse is that if something goes wrong with you, I can't save the people of Fontaine, they will die.

The hidden sentence is naturally that they died because something was wrong with you.

Of course, Funina didn't dare to go wrong.

Therefore, Fukalus did not explicitly say that anyone who is credible must be untrustworthy in her case.

Fucarus may not have been unaware of this, and even if he hadn't thought of it at the time, it was clear that he had been watching Funina all along, and not just like the remnants of the Great Tree King, who could only be trapped in place, waiting for the future to be erased by Nahida of his choice.

He still had a lot of freedom, but he never helped Funina to break free from the bonds that he could never be himself.

Everyone has their own big truths, but unfortunately when it comes to individuals, as the most direct bearers of gains and losses, it is difficult for them to understand these big truths.

This was the dilemma that Funina faced, who had been in great pain and had left the problem perfectly to her heir, Heral, the god of water.

Rama, the god of water, needs to face the mess left by Funingna after the pain of the year, just as the mess that Funinga accepts is essentially the mess left by Fucarus's predecessor Egria, and the latecomers are always cleaning up the tails of their predecessors.

Funina's inability to bring all the prestige of the god of water to an end was to restore the god of water's throne only if he made Navillette disappear.

It was a struggle for power, and the Supreme Inquisitor had already taken over almost all of the decision-making power, and if Rama wanted to have that say, he could only force Navelette to back down.

But power is not the reason for their struggle, whether it is Rama or Navilet, what they are chasing is more essential power.

Lifespan, power, and more are just by-products of the pursuit of power.

What Rama needs is the faith of the people, and faith is such a thing, in the most intuitive way, when you are in trouble, if you have to find something and not a specific person to ask for help, what it will be.

A corner of a habit, an ancient tree, a sky full of gods and Buddhas······

And in Fontaine, the first reaction of the populace in case of trouble, whether it was prayer or specific help, was the choice of the Naviette rather than the god of water.

Rama had no choice.

This is the mess left behind by Funina's inaction.

She is very happy to do nothing, all the specific troubles are handled by Navillette, even if everyone wants to ask the god of water to come forward, it is still Navillette who comes in the end.

Under these circumstances, it is not surprising that the people chose Navillette.

And Rama is going to fight this kind of headwind.

He needed faith, but the people had chosen Navillette.

He will either spend dozens or hundreds of years slowly doing practical things, and then compete with Navillette for his right to speak among the people, or simply let Navillette step down, so that the people can only choose him.

These things are essentially the after-effects of the actions of Funina and Fucarus, who think about something bigger and broader, such as Fontaine, like all the people of Fontaine, and very few care about themselves, let alone what they can leave for the next god of water.

If Rama were a Fontaine, He would also support such a god of water.

But he wasn't, he was the next god of water who had been abandoned in the first place, and it was a stranger who had nothing to do with Fontaine who chose to accept this position for sheer reasons.

When He came, he had to deal with the mess of these two.

Rama has been working on this problem for a long time, and he really despises some of the beliefs of the people who contribute purely out of respect for the gods.

To be reasonable, He came to Fontaine to harvest faith, not to be a beggar.

And now that greed has paid him an additional reward.

Because he had never embraced the faith of the people of Fontaine, Rama was not responsible for the disaster at Fontaine.

He could really have walked away and returned to Sumeru immediately.

Funnina didn't know this, she didn't understand many of Rama's choices, and naturally she would be angry at his indifference at this time.

Anyway, you are also the god of water in Fontaine, why did you say that I couldn't solve the problem when the disaster came, but I could get away with it?

There was no need to explain this, just as Rama had never told Funina that a large part of the reason for his actions was that Funina had left behind a situation that would be bad for the next god of water who was hungry for faith.

Not necessarily.

There is no need to say that things can be done, the main thing is that she is really useless.

Saying these things only makes her feel a little pitiful to find a way to solve the problem, and it looks like she feels guilty and blames herself, but in fact it does not help solve the problem at all.

In that case, it is better to reassure her.
