383 - Preparation

"So, this is the prophecy?"

Sora's expression was a little odd.

"This is the prophecy." Rama nodded, "The sea flooded Fontaine, the people of Fontaine dissolved, and the god of water wept alone on the throne. ”

"Now the sea has flooded Fontaine."

"I ask Navillette to keep some criminals who do not deserve to be saved alive as subspecies, and let the sea purify their souls for the fulfillment of the second description of the prophecy."

"And in a certain part of the prophecy, the people are called upon to judge the god of water······" Rama's smile playfully said, "I have taken this prophecy upon me. ”

"Didn't it take a great deal of effort for the people to store up their anger and convict me of my iniquity?"

"The only pity is that the trial is a wrestling between the two sides, they want to judge me in justice, and I can also adjudicate their injustice through arbitration."

"As for saying that the god of water is crying alone on the throne, there is nothing wrong with what Funina said, in terms of acting, Flaccallus is not suitable for performing on stage."

"It is no wonder," he quipped, "that for the last five hundred years he has only done his own thing in the dictatorship of the cardinals, and has never done anything in front of the people." ”

"Fortunately, we have more suitable actors."

Rama looked at Funingna, "After the death of Fukalus and Navillette in the disaster, do you, who have been protected by them since birth, have you ever wanted to cry?" ”

"It just so happens that under our feet is the throne you are most accustomed to."

"Isn't this a loophole? Can the prophecy be fulfilled one by one? Paimon's eyes widened.

Prophecy isn't such a thing, is it?

You tried your best to do some kind of effort, but in the end, these things still came to your head as scheduled according to the arrangement of fate, without any stagnation or hesitation.

But Rama showed a different way of playing with prophecy.

He did not resist the coming of the prophecy, but took the initiative to cater to every description of the prophecy, helping the prophecy to come as scheduled according to the command of the Sky Island.

It can be said that there are responses in every sentence, but the only problem is that every response is discounted.

You say the sea floods Fontaine?

Yes, but only for a short time, and you'll have to calm down as soon as possible.

You say that all the people of Fontaine will be dissolved by the sea?

Of course, it is possible, but there are two types of Fontaine, one is the normal Teyvat, and the other is the subspecies of humans made by Egolia, I completely follow your order, so that all the human subspecies are dissolved, but those normal Teyvats, they will not be able to accept this fate.

After all, there are people from other countries living here in Fontaine during this period, and if you want to dissolve the Fontaine people who have become normal people, then these foreigners will also have to be dissolved, which is not fair, so it's better not to happen.

And now, you want the god of water to cry on the throne.

You are the boss, of course you say it, you make the god of water cry, we will not make the god of water laugh.

But there were too many gods of water in Fontaine during this period, Fucarus was the god of water, his half-body Funinga was naturally counted, and Rama was also the god of water.

You want the god of water to weep bitterly, but who is the god of water? He's going to weep over something again, and that's what I'm responsible for.

You can give your oracle, and out of respect for the strong, I will ensure that every command is carried out.

But whether the results are as you expect is not my job.

After all, your prophecy is only three lines, and it's not a perfect command.

There was an accident in the middle, it's your problem, not mine.

"God has divine commands, and we don't ask why they are commanded, but only for the will of the gods to be carried out." Rama pinched Paimon's cheek, "I'm a loyal hug of Skye. ”

"Didn't I carry out His commands one by one?"

"Or is that of everything I do, which one is not in accordance with His oracle?"

It is enough for the order to be carried out, the subordinate is not allowed to speak to the boss, you give the order, and I will never ask why I am doing such a thing, I will only be responsible for the execution.

But then again, what you said was not clear, I did it clearly, and everything was right.

If you're not satisfied, you can rewrite it yourself, or admit that you didn't make it clear enough.

"I can't cry for a while." Funina dropped her chain.

"You still have time to prepare, but it's not running out." Rama said casually, "I know they are not dead, so you are not so sad. ”

"But you're not the only one in your life, Villette and Fcalos."

"Think about the other things you care about, think about the emotions you feel after you lose them."

After hesitating, Funina asked, "For example?" ”

"For example, for 500 years, there was a girl named Funina who never became the kind of person she wanted to be." Rama glanced at her, "She used her five hundred years, which can be praised for her perseverance, but actually achieved nothing, to confirm a certain answer like her own god." ”

"The answer is, I'm really incompetent, I can't solve the problem, I can only expect someone who is capable to stand up."

"Will you be slightly more satisfied with this answer?"

Funina didn't want to cry, she just wanted to jump up and hit Rama on the head.

This answer is extremely rude, but it is not ridiculous.

Of course Funingna has a role, Rama knows it, and she knows it herself.

She has been on the throne of the gods for five hundred years - of course, this is not worthy of praise, after all, she has not suffered for five hundred years, and the people of Fontaine have provided for Funina according to the specifications of offering to the gods, and at the same time she is not required to really assume the responsibilities of the gods, and all the work is done by Navillette.

In the history of mankind, there is really no one who can say that this is a punishment rather than a reward.

Five hundred years of life as a god, if you had to say that this kind of punishment was a kind of criminal law, then this kind of punishment is really too abstract and completely incomprehensible.

Funina's value lies in herself, she enjoys but does not chase this enjoyment, but really puts her work on waiting, and then repeats the process of hundreds of years of anticipation of tomorrow - disappointment - new expectation - disappointment again.

This kind of self-demand is actually the root of her suffering.

If she had given up on her pursuit of hope soon, her life would have been nothing of suffering.

After all, in the past five hundred years, except for the kind of endless disappointment, her life has been smooth to the point that anyone would envy her.

Disappointment is the punishment she attaches to herself, and for a long time, she has been a prisoner of hope, a disappointed regulator, eternally disappointed, forever waiting for tomorrow.

Rama didn't think that Fucarus owed anything to Funingna's life, and he thought that what Funingna had gained in the process was enough to match the disappointments she had traversed—if she had been a mortal, she would have gained hundreds of years of life, the status of a god out of thin air, an auxiliary minister of great power who would never threaten her.

For five hundred years, the people of Fontaine have tried to present their own wonderful plays to the goddess of water, at the Opéra Opéra de Eupiclé, but she has always been lacking in interest, as if their performance was completely out of the flow, not the perfect play she had hoped for.

It's just that the god of water himself doesn't think so.

Frunina didn't feel that what Frunina had received was comparable to the disappointment she had experienced over the past five hundred years, he was very satisfied with Frunina's perseverance, and he couldn't be more satisfied with Frunina, and beyond that, he felt guilty that he owed his cub and made her life very difficult······ This is probably a matter of the values of both sides.

That's what Fyakaros thinks, but Frunina isn't.

Her thoughts in this regard are similar to Rama's, not because they share the same values, but because Funina has the most basic qualities of the gods - they tend to despise their own efforts and always overestimate their own gains.

In this regard, Nahida should have a lot in common with her.

They are similar gods, who will always take for granted their contribution to the people, and the people will feel that their contribution is precious, and they will feel that their contribution cannot match the respect and faith of the people.

This is an realization that Rama has rarely had in his lifetime.

He doesn't think like that, I work for you, you give me what I want, and I can be the God you want.

If you don't give me anything when I work, then I'll have to use some special means to get it myself.

I'm God, and I'm going to take care of you?

What do you think?

I don't think I'm a god, and everyone here is only worthy of being my dog, but I really think of you as human beings, and I'm already a great good god.

On top of that, I still want to make an equivalent exchange with you, instead of forcing you to do something with violence, and you should be even more grateful that you can meet a friendly god like me.

At least in Rama's impression, a god who takes money to do things like himself can be called a friendly god in both Eastern and Western mythology.

It's just that the god of Teyvat is a little too strange to make him seem less kind.

This is also a helpless thing, if your colleagues are all gods who do things well without taking money, and they have to sacrifice their lives for the people at every turn, then you, who have to take money to do things, will naturally look very bad.

It's not that Rama has a problem, it's that he really thinks there's something wrong with this world, and that's why he seems a little out of place.

Funnina accepts Rama's suggestion.

Fruncarus felt that she owed Frunina, but Frunina didn't think so.

Of course, she is extremely disgusted that she can't be her past for five hundred years, but she will not say that she has suffered in the Momang Palace for the past five hundred years.

How can he be deserved?

For 500 years, he was worshipped as a god, and he didn't do any actual work, leaving it all to Navillette, and he didn't need to do anything but wait.

In this way, I have to feel that the country of Fontaine owes me something······ Funnina really can't do it, she doesn't feel that she doesn't dare to do anything in five hundred years, she is really sorry for Fucarus's commission back then, it is already because Villette has done a good job.

If there was anything wrong with Villette, she herself would feel that it was all due to her own incompetence.

After all, Navillette shouldered the responsibility of the god of water, because of the inaction of the god of water, all accumulated on the shoulders of Navillette, and the god of water at that time was her Funingna.

That Villette's problem was clearly her Funina's problem, not that Villette was really not good enough.

These high demands on oneself are the regular response of the Seven of Teyvat, and Funnin is no exception.

"I'm going to have a good talk with you when you say that." Foccarus raised his right hand, "You just say that about Frunina, why are you still trying to pull me at every turn?" ”

Funina: ?

"People always have to admit their own powerlessness in order to have better room for improvement." Rama said casually, "I didn't say anything about your food, you can hang me up and beat me, how can I say that a god stronger than me is a rookie." ”

"But every word you say describes my powerlessness in the face of words, and I have done a lot of things······ Forget it. ”

Fcalus waved his hand, too lazy to care.

It's a very annoying question.

Do you have any contributions?

Of course, there is, whether it is Funina playing the god, or he crouching in the cardinal of the oracle to accumulate energy, these are excellent auxiliary performances, which can be called the second contribution, auxiliary Daddy.

Without them, the original story of Fontaine would have been very miserable.

But that's really not the first contribution.

The only big C after the Fontaine settlement, the first contribution daddy can only be Navillette.

Navillette ended up doing a lot of things, but only the most straightforward one, he modified the genetic problems that had existed with the Fontaines since the time of Egria, and completely turned them into Teyvats.

From the time Egolia created the people of Fontaine to the end of everything, there should have been thousands of years in between.

But for such a long time, Egria could only die with sorrow, and the only way that Fucarus thought was to find Navillette and go to C.

It's not that they don't want to do something, it's that they really can't do anything effective except around Navillette.

There was no way for Phukaros not to admit Rama's words.

It is true that manpower is exhausted sometimes, and at this time, if it were not for the heavens sending him a Navelette, he could only wait for death with Egreia, with sorrow.

All the stories since then have been based on Navillette's true ability to solve problems, and he will separate Funinga to play himself, and he will hide in the cardinal of the oracle to accumulate energy.

Of course, this part of the preparation is a bit redundant from the follow-up point of view.

The god of grass in Sumeru next door is also a madman, he is obviously different from himself, and he is not in imminent trouble, but he has embarked on a path that he has perfected only after meditating and meditating.
