It was neither majestic nor scary, and even had a gentle voice that made Furina almost fall off the chair in fright. When she saw Takumi appear on the sofa, looking at her playfully, she immediately shrank her neck, scared. She whispered, "Lord Tianli..."
QAQ, Lord Tianli heard it, what should I do?
Will Lord Tianli punish me?
Thinking of this, she quickly got down from the chair, like a student who made a mistake in class, put her hands on her knees, smiled nervously, and a drop of cold sweat broke out on her forehead.
Furina also panicked for a moment, then sat down and looked at Takumi, who casually appeared on the sofa and picked up her coffee cup to taste. "Lord Tianli."
Neuvillette was very calm, although her expression was still slightly nervous, but compared to Furina, she was much calmer.
"Lord Tianli, this time, Fontaine has completed your plan. From our perspective, we cannot see if there are any flaws in the plan. Please review it again."
Furina couldn't help but feel her heart pounding, afraid that Master Tianli would say "No."
Takumi waved his hand. "If you hadn't done well, I wouldn't have come here. Instead, I would have called you to Sky Island for criticism."
Furina instantly breathed a sigh of relief, as if the mountains that had been weighing her down were gone, and Neuvillette also felt relieved.
After all, as the Water Dragon King, he could feel the changes in the world of Teyvat very clearly. But after all, he wasn't the one annexing the world, so he didn't know if there would be any future troubles.
Takumi clapped his hands and looked at Furina and Neuvillette with a smile.
"I am a fair leader with clear rewards and punishments. Since you have completed your tasks well, you deserve rewards.
"Of course, Fontaine's existence is based on original sin. I believe you yourself understand what this original sin is."
When they heard the word "reward," Furina was already overjoyed, but when she heard the second half of the sentence, she became uneasy.
Furina came back to her senses, lowered her head in fear, and said, "Yes, I understand that the people of Fontaine are not complete humans but rather creations of the first-generation Water Temple. Gloria has usurped the unreasonable authority and secretly used the original fetal sea water to destroy the water elves, creating the Fontaines."
"I even planned to shatter the throne, return a portion of the water element's authority to Neuvillette, use the power of the ancient Dragon King to create life, and make the people of Fontaine into real humans."
Takumi's golden eyes looked at the nervous Furina. "Although I am not Fanes, and it is not me you are transgressing against, original sin remains original sin. The people of Fontaine have indeed made indelible contributions during this mission, and by making up for your merits, I absolve you of your original sin. Thus, as a reward, you will become true humans."
Furina felt a sudden enlightenment, as if her whole body was under the sunlight. Coming back to her senses, she quickly said, "Thank you, Master Tianli, for your gift."
Takumi took a sip of coffee. "This is what the people of Fontaine deserve. From now on, Furina, you must work even harder."
Furina hurriedly swore, "Yes, Lord Tianli. I will devote myself to the prosperity of the world of Teyvat until my death."
Neuvillette added, "I will do the same."
After speaking, Furina and Neuvillette looked at each other, sensing each other's happiness.
Furina sighed. Master Takumi was so great, with clear rewards and punishments, treating them well even as the Seven Archons.
"I am so fortunate to have such a great leader," she thought.
When Phanes was still in power, the former Water Goddess Egolia worried every day and never had a moment of peace. Furina silently swore that she would devote her entire life to serving Lord Tianli.
Moreover, during the annexation of the world, Master Tianli had also given her the "Rules of Water" and "Rules of Justice" of that world. Now, she had become stronger, on par with the first-generation Seven Archons.
Although the original Seven Archons were certainly even stronger now.
Takumi pushed the finished coffee cup toward Furina. "Make another cup."
Furina nodded eagerly. "Okay." She quickly held the cup and made coffee.
Takumi looked at Neuvillette. "What about you, Neuvillette? What reward do you want?"
Neuvillette said without hesitation, "I don't have any particular wishes, but the only thing I desire is the 'Ancient Dragon Power.'"
Takumi rested his cheek on his palm and smiled. "I knew that was what you'd ask for, so I approve."
Now the world of Teyvat was entirely his domain, and the 'Ancient Dragon Power' was well within his grasp.
Raising his hand, Furina's body glowed with an aqua blue light. She looked at her hands, sensing the separation of the 'Water Element Authority' from her divine throne. Her power had not weakened. Ninety percent of her power came from the 'Devil's Pattern.' The divine position did not significantly increase her strength, as it was more like a status symbol for the Demon God. Of course, for the gods, the divine position was the foundation of their existence.
The current role of the Seven Archons was to suppress half of the water elemental authority that Fanes had plundered from the Seven Dragon Kings of the first generation. The complete power of the 'Ancient Dragons' had the potential to interfere with Fanes's 'Light Realm Force System,' which meant fighting for control of the world.
For Teyvat, the 'Light World Power System' was akin to the group leader, while the 'Seven Ancient Dragon Powers' were administrators. Since the administrators and group leaders were hostile forces, Fanes had suppressed them. Now, with all authority in the hands of the new Tianli, the 'Ancient Dragon Power' had lost its function as a control mechanism and could instead serve as a reward to encourage Neuvillette to work even harder in the future.
The 'Water Element Authority' appeared before Neuvillette like a glowing orb the size of an egg. The moment this power appeared, the sky in Fontaine was suddenly covered with dark clouds, and a light drizzle fell. People in Fontaine hurriedly sought shelter from the rain, grumbling about the unpredictability of the weather forecast.
Neuvillette quickly stretched out his hand. As the second-generation Dragon King, something deeply inherent within him longed for the complete power of the ancient dragon. His ego had little interest in such power, but his body acted independently of his rational mind.
The 'Water Element Authority' merged with Neuvillette, and the vague aura around him transformed into one of pure, ancient power.
"The ancient dragon's power... is finally complete," he thought, feeling the change within himself.
At the same moment, a shadow of the 'Original Dharma Ring' appeared behind Takumi, and he spoke slowly.
"I, the law of heaven, forgive the original sin of the people of Fontaine, absolve the transgression of the former Water Goddess Egolia, and permit the people of Fontaine to become true humans."
