Genshin Impact: I wrote the plot into a novel to spoil the future

"Mascot... cough cough, hehehe, as the star deity of Fontaine, being called so affectionately by everyone actually means that my performance was a great success."

"However, you can't ignore my authority during the trial!"

Chapter 865 D'Artagnan has arrived too.

In the story, Linnie leads the travelers to the temporary dwelling at the House of Hearths.

Seeing this, Seno nodded: "Because it is Linni's residence, it is called 'temporary residence' (Linni's residence)."

Tina was already used to it. Luckily, Linni and the others didn't hear it; they weren't surnamed Lin.

So Tinari pretended not to hear and continued watching the story.

Seeing that Tinari ignored him, Seno moved closer out of curiosity and explained, "Didn't you understand? 'Temporary' sounds like 'Lin's'..."

Tina covered Seno's mouth with her hand, but didn't look at him at all, continuing to read the story.

Sino didn't resist, thinking that it was good that he had heard it, and continued watching the story.

At their temporary lodging, the traveler encountered Linni's other 'brother'—Fimini.

Unlike Lynette, who was taciturn and spoke little, Fimini was quiet, seemingly because she was shy.

This is quite different from Cole, who, although also shy, is quite talkative.

Just as everyone was chatting, a light rain suddenly began to fall, and Fimini took the opportunity to tell a legendary story.

"It is said that there was once a water dragon king in Fontaine, though its whereabouts are now unknown, but... whenever it cries, it rains."

It has to be said that there are many legends and stories about Fontainebleau; the audience has seen no fewer than five in just a short time.

Navelette felt a mix of emotions as she read these words.

Thankfully, everyone just took it as a legend, otherwise I would have become a crybaby. Not all the rain is because I'm crying.

[Fimini continued, "When I was very, very young, my mother told me that if I wanted the rain to stop so I could go out and play, I should shout at the sky..."]

【“Water Dragon—Water Dragon—Don’t Cry—”】

The legend was very interesting, so Paimon shouted it out loud in his cute little voice, which was super adorable.

Navilette: "..."

Funina had naturally heard this legend before, but seeing it played on the big screen now felt completely different; she almost wanted to laugh.

She seemed much more relaxed after she stopped appearing on screen, and now she even wanted to lean close to Villette's ear and say, "Water Dragon—Water Dragon—Don't cry—"

Unfortunately, Navelette's seat was far from the gods, so she couldn't cause any trouble even if she wanted to.

At this point, most people didn't really understand what was going on with that statement. Most Teyvats were still wondering who the Water Dragon was and where it was.

They never imagined that those words would have such a powerful impact!

A future viewer commented: "I don't know if Suiryu will cry after Fukaros said that, but I felt a little like crying when he said that."

After Paimon in the story tried to shout this phrase, the rain didn't stop, suggesting that the legend was just that—a legend.

It has to be said that everyone felt a little awkward when Paimon shouted that at that moment. Luckily it was Paimon who shouted it; it's kind of cute when a kid shouts like that, otherwise it would have been even more awkward.

'It would be so awkward if an adult had to do it, wouldn't it?' That was everyone's thought at that moment.

If we actually have an 'adult' call them that later, they'll be unhappy about it.

But that's a story for another time. The current travelers plan to help Linni and the others bring the materials for making the 'magic pocket' to the Beaumont workshop.

It was supposed to be Fimini's job, but his social anxiety kicked in and he didn't dare to go.

At the entrance of the Beaumont workshop, Paimon called out, "Boss~ Boss~?"

Boss, boss, don't cry.

The moment the boss came out, he started chatting away with the travelers. No wonder Fimini didn't want to come; people with social anxiety really can't handle such a talkative person.

Here we met someone who surprised everyone – D'Artagnan.

The traveler was chatting with the shopkeeper about the grand story of how the 'Cardinal Decree' provided energy to the entire city.

One machine can handle the energy needs of an entire city. Travelers were still marveling at how amazing the Water God was, even though it seemed unreliable.

The last person to pull off such a big stunt was Wendy, who used his power to disperse the snowstorm in Mondstadt.

Foreigners, upon hearing about the power of the 'Cardinal Decree', were also amazed by the water god's abilities, never expecting that the water god to be so useful.

This feeling of relief hadn't lasted long when the debt collectors arrived.

"Istel said helplessly, 'I told you I would definitely pay back the money I borrowed from your Cabrière Merchant Guild next month. Why are you still pestering me like this?'"

Before the people from the Cabrière Merchant Guild could finish speaking, D'Artagnan arrived, also there to collect a debt.

In reality, D'Artagnan was also somewhat surprised, never expecting to go to Fontaine, which was the area under Arecino's jurisdiction.

What is he here for? He's here to collect debts from creditors. It sounds a bit convoluted, but it's a double entendre.

First, he lost a bet with the debt collector, so he started collecting debts for the debt collector.

Secondly, the debt collectors he was collecting from were precisely the debtors who had come to collect debts from the owner of the Beaumont workshop.

[A thug from the Gabriel Chamber of Commerce: "People from the Northern Bank? We already said we could definitely pay it back next month, why are you still pestering us..."]

Istelle: He used all my words!

As expected of someone from the Winter Solstice, they're playing with Winter Solstice nesting dolls.

In the unfamiliar new city of Fontaine, everyone felt a strange sense of familiarity upon seeing Dadalia.

I'm also wondering, why aren't you staying in Liyue? What are you doing in Fontainebleau? Are the Fatui about to make their move in Fontainebleau?

Paimon asked him, "Why don't you just stay in your hometown of Winter?" But everyone felt that he had spent more time in Liyue than in Winter.

As for what D'Artagnan was there for, he said he was there for tourism, and that meeting other travelers was just wishful thinking.

China Telecom's 3G network is indeed fast; Dadalia is almost ahead of Traveler in traveling to all seven countries.

[D'Artagnan said, "Now not only do I have old friends with me, but they also happen to be the kind of people who cause trouble wherever they go."]

It seems that the fact that travelers attract trouble is already widely acknowledged; this isn't the first time I've heard this on my journey.

First Paimon complained, then Frynn said it, Charlotte said it, and now even D'Artagnan is saying it.

But it's one thing for others to say that, but how could you say such a thing, D'Artagnan?

Yingmei pouted, looking a little unhappy.

I do cause trouble wherever I go, but have you ever considered the reason for it? Isn't it all caused by you fools?

That's even more interesting. We should arrest you, the executive officer, and make sure you never come back.

The Gabriel Merchant Guild thugs, who were being ignored by D'Artagnan, were very unhappy. Why did they start talking to me while ignoring me?

Whether I'm the one chasing debts or the one being chased for debts, I'm clearly the one in the main character!

Character Voice Lines - Tartaglia: About the debt collector's bet

"Hmm, now that you ask me, I realize that I seem to have never won a bet?"

Chapter 866 Vashe? Vashe?

The man pointed at D'Artagnan and said arrogantly, "Listen up, kid, we're paying you back right now! Come here!"

As he said this, Paimon poked his little head out and looked over, squinting his little eyes and shaking his head with an expression that said, "You guys can't do it," which was quite adorable.

With two "fighting enthusiasts" standing beside her, Paimon became arrogant; she was a master at assessing situations.

Paimon's expression was cute, but the henchman's words really made the audience laugh. Why are you so arrogant about paying back money?

I always feel like the thought processes of you Fontainebleau people are a bit abstract. Maybe you've been watching too many comedies and it's gotten to you?

Now, viewers think that Fontaine's story might not be a very serious story anymore; it has a dramatic feel to it, and there might be some dramatic developments later on.

How will things unfold? Who knows? The water god wants to judge the travelers, but he might end up being judged by them instead. How dramatic!

They never imagined that their casual rant would become a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Although the 'prophecy' came true, they were never happy about it.

D'Artagnan completely ignored what the people behind her were saying and continued chatting with the traveler, having already steered the conversation toward Tok.

Once again ignored, the thugs became completely enraged. They yelled "Hey!" and charged forward, ready to fight Tadalia for three hundred rounds.

However, the thugs were lying on the ground before the third round was over, which made the audience feel that the story of Fontaine was more like a drama. Was this supposed to be a joke?

Unlike the spectators who were just watching the spectacle, Tartaglia made a discovery during the battle: the Eye of God seemed to be malfunctioning, and the water elemental power was no longer under his control.

Tartaglia said, "...Never mind, it doesn't really matter. Over-reliance on the elemental power of the Eye of God will dull one's edge. Besides, I still have the Evil Eye to use."

As D'Artagnan said this, the group of thugs behind him who had just been knocked down stood up and ran away in a panic, just like actors leaving the stage in an orderly fashion after a performance.

D'Artagnan ignored the passersby and continued chatting with the travelers, saying:

"Lately, I feel like there's some restless energy inside me, and I don't know why, but my mood keeps getting down."

This description is somewhat subtle, and some female viewers even wondered if the force was mainly concentrated in the abdomen? And that it happens every month?

[Datalia: "That's certainly possible..."]

This answer inexplicably sparked a conversation with the audience, making them feel more involved.

However, D'Artagnan's answer was actually Paimon's opinion; she felt that the Eye of God malfunctioned because of this restless force.

D'Artagnan agreed, and then continued to recall other possibilities.

D'Artagnan recalls that when he was fourteen, he fell into an unknown abyss, where he met a taciturn woman named Skirk, who took him as her apprentice.

[D'Artagnan said, "Once I asked her why she was willing to take me as her apprentice, and she answered me something like..."]

"We, the Cloud Riders, are like clouds obscuring the sky, protecting the immortal boat." "Whoever wants to learn my sword, I will teach them."

*Ahem*, although they are both icy, white-haired, red-eyed beings from beyond the heavens, Master Silky said something else entirely. She said:

"...Because I awakened 'it,' its mark remains on me. In the future, I will find these combat techniques useful."

Viewers exclaimed upon hearing about D'Artagnan's experience: "Isn't this just like the protagonist in a light novel?"

"I Met a Beautiful Swordswoman Master After Falling Off a Cliff" and "I've Descended from the Mountain as a Sword Saint's Disciple"—these titles have a strong sense of déjà vu.

D'Artagnan continued talking, saying that he had dreamed of a super big whale, and he wanted to ask his master about it, but he couldn't find him no matter what he did.

After descending the mountain, they couldn't find their master. But look, it's Sun Wukong and Patriarch Bodhi! No, it's Sister Bodhi!

Silky Kirk, who is the 'protagonist's cheat code,' was actually watching this story in the movie theater.

In fact, she acknowledged Tartaglia's talent, but she always deliberately kept her distance from him, so it was inevitable that Tartaglia couldn't find her.

If Tartaglia can find her easily, then he is probably even stronger than her.

Skork stared at the screen with a calm expression. She hadn't developed enough feelings for the world of Teyvat yet, so she watched the story with a detached attitude.

I only read the prophetic books out of curiosity, not out of curiosity about Teyvat, but out of curiosity about people from beyond the heavens.

This curiosity was directed at the traveler, but also at Lin Qiu, since the prophecy happened to be related to both of them.

Returning to the story, after Dartalia obediently shared all the information with the Traveler, she prepared to leave, and also handed over her Eye of God for safekeeping.

Entrusting such a valuable item to a traveler so casually—it's hard to say whether he doesn't care about the Eye of God or trusts the traveler too much.

If the person opposite him were his colleague, he wouldn't have given up the Eye of God so easily.

In short, he left in a hurry. As for why he was in such a hurry... ever since he came to Fontaine, he had been constantly provoking Clarinde. Now that she was finally willing to spar with him, how could he not be anxious?

This news gave Dartalia a glimmer of hope in real life; it turned out that as long as he kept provoking her, he could actually fight Clarinde!?

He never tried to provoke Clarinde, mainly because they met very infrequently and couldn't keep provoking her.

But Tartaglia said: If you're going to tell me so clearly that I can fight, then I'm not going back to Liyue for now—farewell to Liyue.

In the story, D'Artagnan went off to fight someone, but the traveler wasn't so into 'fighting fun'; she and Paimon explored the whole of Fontainebleau together.

The story has become a Fontainebleau travel guide. Nothing major happened, but the water god and the people of Fontainebleau put on two plays for everyone to see.
