Genshin Impact is a big stage, come if you dare

Su emerged from the Dust Song Pot carrying a large bunch of thorny roses, exclaiming, "I'm back!"

Emeritus took a thorny rose from the pile and sniffed it lightly.

"Hmm... Just as Su said, the fragrance has a faint sweetness with a slightly cool and spicy medicinal feel, similar to woody herbs."

Emeritus thought for a moment and then took out a fragrance bottle. “Rose root fragrance, a fragrance extracted from herbs.”

Some aromatic herbs are also used in the making of perfumes. These include sandalwood, cloves, peppermint, myrrh, and rose root.

Paimon brought out the plant guide given to him by Tinari, "This medicinal herb, rose root, is made from thorny roses!"

"The guidebook says that this rose rarely blooms, but its thorns grow abundantly, so it is processed into a large quantity of medicinal materials."

Su: "It really knows how to pretend to be a tree. No wonder it's in a pharmacy instead of a flower shop."

After planting it in the sunniest spot in the Chengehu Garden, I built a trellis to support its branches and diligently managed it with fertilizer, but it only grew strong and never flowered!

She wrote to Tina and Nasita for help, and then, as they suggested, she secretly channeled herb elemental energy into it whenever she had time, which finally allowed her to see it bloom some time ago.

Funina took the large bouquet of thorny roses from Su's arms and soon extracted the pure thorny rose fragrance.

After being extracted by Funina, the characteristics of the thorny rose scent become more pronounced.

Beyond its subtle sweetness, the spicy medicinal sensation evokes associations with wounds, pain, and healing. It's like a mysterious, dangerous, and alluring magic potion.

Having taken over the thorny rose fragrance, Sue finally began the work of blending the perfume.

——*——*——

"It's done!" Sue handed a classically shaped glass urn to Funina.

Inside the highly transparent Remurian dynasty glass urn, a pale blue perfume was tinged with a very faint pink.

Funina took the heavy perfume jar, pressed the gemstone bud on top, and a fine mist of fragrance sprayed out.

Amélie closed her eyes and felt it carefully.

The top notes are bright, slightly spicy, and bubbly, like a grand entrance of a superstar.

In the middle notes, the cool and clear scent of lily of the valley emerges, like light bubbles bursting and crystal-clear water droplets condensing.

She sensed a divine aura permeating her, a aura so clear it was almost chilling, so pure it was almost ethereal, yet also filled with a sense of resolute determination and the loneliness of swallowing everything alone.

In the final notes, water droplets splash onto the petals, and the rose, moistened by tears, exudes a subtle fragrance.

A subtle sweetness mixed with a medicinal feel, like a fugue interwoven with pain and temptation.

Amélie opened her eyes.

This fragrance appreciation experience allowed her to "feel" Lady Funina from another perspective.

Emeritus clapped softly. "A wonderful piece, like a duet of aquatic and floral notes."

"The top notes are a stunning entrance, the middle notes are a strong monologue, and the base notes... are gentle blessings and companionship."

Sue gripped Emilie's hand and shook it vigorously. "Yes, yes, that's exactly the effect I wanted! You understood, great job!"

It seems this perfumery project was a great success!

With her eyes closed, Funina bathed in the fragrance that Sue had specially blended for her, feeling an unprecedented sense of ease and joy.

The difficult choices I used to face alone, the moments when I had to force myself to arm myself, are all in the past.

Those vulnerabilities that would only hurt her were all caught firmly by someone.

Funina decided to use this...this jar of perfume as her night fragrance.

Falling asleep pleasantly to such a fragrance and waking up satisfied would make every day a happy one.

Paimon nudged Furnessa, who was smiling with her eyes closed. "Furnessa, Furnessa! The Singer is out again!"

How strange! Funina was clearly not in danger, so why did the Singer of the Waters suddenly appear?

Funinna quickly opened her eyes! Sure enough, the Singer of the Waters was quietly floating beside her.

Around the pure water sprite formed by the transparent water flow, there was a ring of bubbles and water droplets formed from perfume.

“This, this is my summoned creature!” Furna quickly explained to Amelie, “I didn’t expect her to like Sue’s perfume too, haha.”

Emeritus nodded without asking any further questions.

She had heard the news that Lady Funina had lost her divine power in order to break the prophecy, and she also knew that Lady Funina had obtained the Eye of God on the day she abdicated.

Sue looked at the singer surrounded by water; the bubbles and foam formed from the perfume seemed to alleviate her condition.

I never knew her perfume had such an extra benefit; she's truly amazing!

After Furnessa had put away the perfume and the singer of all waters, the shopping group said goodbye to Amelie.

Sue: "Thank you, Emeritus, for letting us know how fun it is to make perfumes!"

Emeritus said softly, "You're welcome. I had a very pleasant day because of you all."

Watching the girls' anxieties and laughter surrounding perfume reminded her of her own feelings when she first started learning perfumery from her teacher.

Perfume should not be a tool for revenge, but a beautiful thing that carries feelings and blessings.

——*——*——

After leaving Emeris's house, the shopping party headed to a beach in the wilderness.

Su said, "Now that Funina has the Singer of the Waters, it means we can start practicing in real combat."

Paimon nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes! It's definitely good to learn how to fight and have the ability to protect yourself."

Sue and Paimon looked at Frynn together, "Has Frynn learned any combat skills?"

After thinking for a moment, Funina said confidently, "I know swordsmanship!"

“Alright,” Sue brought over a heavily armored crab. “Go, Funina, try out the knife on it!”

"What 'testing the sword'? I'm using a staff sword!" Fryna complained as she drew her magnificent Still Water Flowing Radiance and walked up to the Armored Crab.

"Hmm..." Fryna glanced at the armored crab a few times, "Sorry? I'll try my best to hit your shield!"

A minute later, watching Fryna being chased and running away with her head in her hands by the armored crab, Sue and Paimon shook their heads speechlessly.

Furnessa fled, panting, "Help—"

Stop, stop, stop just watching! She's about to run out of steam!

"Sigh." Su Fei kicked the armored crab chasing Funina away, saving Funina from being chased to tears.

Sue: "Furina, aren't you skilled in swordsmanship? Why don't you try cutting it down?"

Paimon couldn't help but complain, "Forget about offense, there's no defense either. All they do is run away from being chased."

Funina finally caught her breath. "I...I chopped it! Who knew it would be so fast and try to clamp me down!"

Those pliers are huge! One bite and your arm might just snap off!

How terrifying!

Sue glanced at the singer of the water who had reappeared, "With her here, you won't get hurt, Funina."

Healing bubbles and water droplets clung to Funina's body.

Even if Funina is injured, the wound may have already healed completely before she even feels the pain.

“But…” Funina felt so much pressure, “But close-quarters combat is really scary!”
