Genshin Impact Simulation: Starting with Melsin's Friend

"Let us give a warm round of applause to welcome Lady Funina, the Water Goddess, to deliver the opening address for the Thousand Spirits Festival!"

The host's enthusiastic voice echoed throughout the Opicclay Opera House, instantly triggering a deafening roar that nearly lifted the roof off the opera house.

"Lady Funina is the best in the world!"

"Lady Funinna, look at me, I am your most loyal fan!"

"I am Lady Furninna's dog!"

Wait, something strange seems to have gotten in.

Mu Feng's lips twitched as he watched speechlessly as the arrogant fellow was cleanly and efficiently pulled out of the Opikley Opera House by the special patrol team's spring mechanism, still shouting wildly throughout, until he completely disappeared behind the doors.

What a passionate fan!

What we're saying is, without the protagonist's halo of some blond guy, it's still none of the business of the executioner.

Not just anyone can be wanted and steal Fufu's little cakes.

If you unfortunately encounter the above situation, please wait patiently for the Fontaine Special Patrol Team's thoughtful door-to-door service and receive a complimentary one-way tour ticket to Mélo Petersburg.

On the exhibition stand, Funina didn't seem to care about this little incident and calmly began the opening ceremony of the Thousand Souls Festival.

After a brief speech, the lights slowly dimmed, and as the spotlight shone on the edge of the booth, a small cart covered with red velvet slowly drove up and sat high in the center of the booth.

"ladies and gentlemen."

"The special Nightingale cake from Maple Dew Cafe will be unveiled by Lady Funina!"

Funina curiously examined the glass box, which was almost half her height, her blue heterochromatic eyes sparkling with anticipation.

A faint aroma of cream wafted through the Opikley Opera House, and the audience members unconsciously leaned forward slightly, their eyes fixed on Furnessa's movements.

"Clap."

The red cloth was lifted, and the lights were turned off.

Just as people were looking around in confusion, a small flame lit up on the stage, instantly attracting everyone's attention.

It was a small candle, emitting a soft, orange-yellow flame.

A candy figure holding a candle stands atop the cake, slowly sliding down a pre-set chocolate track around the cake, its faint light illuminating the top layer.

"Separated by an endless ocean, that is a land of thunder."

Suddenly, melodious music began to play from the base of the trolley, accompanied by a soft narration, clearly reaching the ears of every audience member in the opera house.

"In that eternal paradise, besides humans, there lives another tribe—the Ghost Tribe."

A sugar figurine holding a candle descends to the top of the cake, and several fondant figurines with small horns on their heads appear in the darkness.

On the grass covered with soft-lighted butter, lifelike little candy figures in blue and red appear to be playing and frolicking.

A gasp of amazement erupted from the audience, who expressed their admiration for the exquisite design of the cake.

"The Red Oni and the Blue Oni are close friends."

"They yearn for the human world, but are considered an evil and dangerous race because of their strange appearance."

As the narration deepened, the lights dimmed, and the joyful smiles of the blue and red demon figures gradually faded into the darkness.

"The red demon was disheartened after being rejected many times. The blue demon did not want his friend to be so depressed. In the end, the wise blue demon came up with an idea."

As the candles burned shorter, the next layer of the cake slowly came into view. The once cheerful, creamy meadow had been replaced by the blue of dewdrop petals, and the melancholy hue made the droopy red figures on top look particularly out of place.

One day, the Blue Demon attacked a human tribe.

The music gradually grew heavier, and the main body of the third-tier cake was no longer in a light color scheme.

The crimson of the sunset fruit mixed with cream mimics the color of flames, and several villages built of cookies are sparsely scattered among them, making the atmosphere particularly oppressive.

A murmur broke out in the audience, but it quickly subsided.

As the candlelight flickered, tiny red fondant figures appeared before the cookie village, resolutely keeping the flames and the blue demons outside.

"The Red Demon didn't understand the Blue Demon's sudden actions, but being kind-hearted by nature, he still chose to protect the village and drove the troublesome Blue Demon away from the human settlement."

The music was light and cheerful as the candles slid down the chocolate track again. Along the way, fondant figures tossed the Red Demon high into the air, welcoming the hero's return.

"The red demon who saved the village earned the respect and acceptance of humans."

"But he still has unresolved questions."

"So the Red Demon secretly returned to the Blue Demon's residence, only to find a letter."

The chocolate track slowly melted in the flames, the candlelight fell from mid-air, and the last glimmer of light illuminated a small figure at the bottom of the cake.

In a forest made of chocolate chip cookies, a lone red fondant figure holds up a small piece of paper.

The man's bewildered expression vanished as the candlelight went out, quickly disappearing into the darkness.

In the darkness, the music played mournfully. In the silence, the deep voice continued, as if it came from across the ocean, or as if it had been separated by a hundred years.

“My dear Red Demon.”

"Racial harmony may not be as simple as we imagine."

"I've come up with an idea for this."

"Once you drive me away from the village, you'll gain their approval, won't you?"

Goodbye, and don't come looking for me again.

"Your best friend, Blue Demon."

As the last syllable faded, the lights suddenly came on, bathing the entire cake tower in light.

Where the candle burned out, lay the final spot where the Red Demon stood. The solidified wax spilled sparsely onto the pristine white butter, continuing deep into the biscuit forest before disappearing completely…

An "opera" made of cakes, like waking from a dream, plunged the opera house into a deep silence, as if savoring the moment or deep in thought.

The past of the Kingdom of Thunder is, in a way, a reflection of the reality of Fontaine.

The Red Oni, considered an anomaly, ultimately protected humanity, but in order to integrate into human society, he had to pay the price of parting ways with his best friend, the Blue Oni.

All of this should have happened without us having to.

So, what about Melusin, who also hopes to join the human race? Are they truly as malicious as the rumors suggest?

Many people unconsciously cast complicated glances toward Mu Feng, who was surrounded by the Meilushin group.

Perhaps, they already had the answer in their hearts.

"I think I have already made a decision about this year's winner of the Furina Award."

On the display stand, Fu Ningna secretly wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, took a deep breath, and slowly spoke.

A cake received the highest honor in the performing arts, yet no one raised any objections; they remained immersed in the extraordinary performance, unable to calm down for a long time.

At Funina's request, the cake was returned to the Mumang Palace for safekeeping, and the crowd gradually dispersed.

This time, however, no one deliberately avoided the group of little Meirusin girls in the center.
