People in Xumi: I am really not the Dragon King

Chapter 294 From now on, you are the true God of Water, "Funina"

"——Show me now."

"Ahem, since it's a gift to the great God of Water, bring it here quickly!"

"As a testimony to the friendship between the leaders of the two countries,

Although such a small amount of power is of no use to me as a ruler,

But in any case, it is better for me to keep this gift personally."

I almost let myself be known because of my excitement.
Furninna, realizing her current identity as the "Water God", coughed twice.

Finally, he extended his hand to Navelette in front of him with an attitude consistent with his previous performance.

"."

"Ms. Funina, this is a gift from that Excellency. I will not stop you from checking its effects."

".But even if this power is not too important to you,

As a symbol of goodwill from a strong man,

Considering the relationship between our two countries, I still suggest you treat this gift with the highest regard.”

"——In addition, the instructions for use will be automatically delivered to you after identity authentication is completed, and the maker's message will also be included.

Ms. Funina is the current Goddess of Water. As long as she opens the gift box, she should be able to complete the certification smoothly."

Thinking of my boss's various unreliable behaviors in the past,

Although Villette thought she would like this gift very much, she still reminded her cautiously just to be on the safe side.

"."

He took two steps forward and placed the gift box on the wooden table.

Feeling that his mission was accomplished, Navelette said goodbye and prepared to leave.

——Because I feel that I am not good at communicating with people, nor am I suitable for the job of passing messages.
Before he left the desert, he had asked the god to keep his message and the details of the item on the gift.

The first person who touches the scepter will naturally receive all this information while completing the authentication.

".etc!"

But just as Villette was about to leave,

Finina, who had already touched the wooden box, suddenly stopped the Supreme Judge who wanted to return to his post.

It seemed like there was something else he wanted to ask him.

"Although such a gift is the same as what you said, it is of no use to me, the great water god.
But I still know its value to ordinary people. Why did that being specially give Fontaine such a precious gift?"

I am about to touch the power I have always dreamed of.

But Furninha recalled the past five hundred years.
An inexplicable feeling of anxiety made her stop before taking the first step.

——Since it is a precious gift given to the "God of Water", it must be protected from being opened by others.

She is still essentially a mortal. Can she really complete the authentication of her identity as a god?

"."

".That being said that he recognized you, Ms. Funina, and your achievements in governing Fontaine over the past few hundred years.
He thinks you’re a good manager.”

"So, in addition to its friendship significance at the national level, this scepter is also a personal gift to you, Ms. Funina."

"."

".I. Am an excellent manager?"

I never imagined that besides the performance, I could get the word "excellent" as an evaluation.

For a moment, not only was Funina silent;

Even the oval floor-standing dressing mirror next to it flickered twice, barely perceptible.

——Although in order to become a qualified god,

Over the past five hundred years, Finina has secretly learned a lot of knowledge that a god should have, and has been working hard for it.

But I don't know when it started.
"Praising Miss Funina's performance on stage will make her happy" has become the consensus of the entire Fontaine people.

Funina receives numerous compliments for her outstanding performance every day.
Listening to the visitors' carefully crafted compliments,

Under that standard smug smile, he already thought that he would never have a chance to deviate from this "correct answer".

But at this moment,
After suddenly hearing this sentence which had nothing to do with strength and identity, but was just an appreciation of the efforts of "Funina" herself,

She wanted to put on a matter-of-fact smile, but she couldn't respond to the audience the same way she had in the past.

"."

Based on Funina's past performance,

Navelette, who thought her boss's behavior was normal, did not notice the unusual behavior of her boss.
In the previous moment, he vaguely sensed another breath in the room.
After checking this familiar power with some caution and confirming that it still belonged to the "God of Water" in front of him,

Villette also shook her head in relief and left Funina's room.

——Sure enough, it is still as unpredictable as ever.
No matter how long you've been together, you still can't guess what your boss is thinking.

Having completed his mission, Navelette turned and left.

now,

Once again, Furninna was the only one left in this magnificent room.

This "Water God" is always extremely confident in front of people and always has a strong aura on stage.
Faced with this extremely quiet gift box in front of him, he showed a kind of "stage fright" that had almost nothing to do with his identity as a god.

"."

He placed his hand on the edge of the gift box and left it like that after a moment.

Because she saw hope, she was even more afraid of Furninha's hope being dashed.
There is a sense of anticipation and fear that the answers will be revealed after completing the exam.

——This could be the end of her previous life of constant fear of being exposed, but it could also be a complete denial of her past efforts.

——If a mortal cannot be recognized as a "god" no matter how hard he tries, then this thing may become a serious flaw in her identity.

"."

After hesitating for a moment,
Thinking of that praise not for the power of the gods but for her own efforts,

Funina took a deep breath and decided to put aside all her doubts:

".Anyway, the god who gave me this gift is a being that even Villette considers powerful.

I didn’t have the option to refuse from the beginning.” And I didn’t want to refuse
Temporarily discard all thoughts about "mission" and "disguise",
A water god who has already started to plan in his mind how to fool around after failure.

He closed his eyes and placed his hand directly on the special area used for identity verification.

"."

"."

".Failed?"

Not feeling any special reaction, Funina's heart sank deeply.

Having let go of his fluke mentality, the fake water god slowly opened his eyes as if he was afraid to face the consequences.

But the next moment,
She was about to accept failure, but she was deeply attracted by the scene in front of her:

——The exquisite gift box that was originally used to hold the gift seemed to have completed its mission and gradually turned into a dreamy emerald green light.

This spiral light band composed of fluorescent stars is intertwined with the slightly damp blue water element.
Together they gathered around a gorgeous scepter whose true appearance was gradually emerging.

——The dark blue stick body is as natural as flowing water, and the exquisite patterns composed of silver and light blue,
Under the perfectly coordinated handle without any traces of splicing, the hand guard decorated with four azure gems sparkles.
Once this scepter that embodies divine power appears, the entire room feels like it is at the bottom of the sea, filled with the breath of life and tides.

"."

".Am I recognized?"

Feeling the closeness coming from the scepter in front of me,
Realizing that he has become the only user of this gift, he will not lose the power he has been looking forward to for five hundred years until he voluntarily gives it up.

Finina blinked her sapphire eyes and suddenly felt that the result was unreal, as if she was immersed in a beautiful dream.

I vaguely realized that I was only one step away from gaining power.
She also reached out to grasp the scepter floating in the air, wanting to know what kind of message the giver of this gift had left for her.

"Om-"

The water element in the air began to vibrate more than ever before, and a quiet blue light flashed by.

The "gift" from Lin Feng, which also carried the method of using this power, appeared in Funina's mind.

Outside the Momang Palace, Fontaine Court.

As Furninna officially accepted this demon-level power,
A vortex-shaped band of light formed by a large amount of water elements also spread out from the highest point of Mo Mang Palace.

As the most prosperous city in Fontainebleau,
There is never a shortage of pedestrians on the streets of Fontaine.

And at this moment,
The residents of Fontaine, who usually watched Funina's performances, looked at the source of the abnormality in surprise.

".Isn't this the residence of Lady Funina on the top floor of Momang Palace?"

".What's going on? Did someone make Lady Funina angry?"

The abode of the water god is no secret.
Although it is almost impossible to get there without permission,

But at least after seeing the specific location, the people quickly realized that this power came from the god they loved deeply.

".Shouldn't it be possible?"

".Lady Furnina hasn't used her power for hundreds of years. Who would deliberately go to her place to make her angry?"

"——Maybe it was a sudden idea, to practice for a future performance?"

A young man holding the latest model of projector was frantically adjusting the shooting angle, trying to capture this rare and precious scene.

While casually responding to the doubts of his companions.

".Yes, how could anyone want to anger a god?"

".However, if Lady Finina hadn't intervened this time, I would have almost forgotten that Lady Finina, the star actress of the theater, is a powerful god."

After a brief pause, the young man who was walking with his friend said with some emotion:
"——That's good. Two tourists from other countries suspected that our water god was just a mascot.

Although people in our country often think so, we will no longer be looked down upon by foreign tourists after this incident.”

Because I have never seen the Water God take action.
This put the people of Fontaine at a disadvantage in front of some foreign tourists who were keen on comparing the fighting power of the gods of the seven kingdoms.

Seeing that the water element gathered this time and covered the entire Fontaine and was still spreading outward,

This new member of the "Water God School" also felt that his subsequent arguments were much more substantial.

The source of elemental power and the residence of the God of Water among the high-ranking officials of Momang Palace.

If this incident made all the residents of Fontaine realize for the first time that their erratic water god was actually a god,
The one with the most complicated feelings was actually Fucaros, who came here to understand the situation.

Because of the plan to deceive the heavens and crack the prophecy, Fukalos has always felt an unspeakable guilt towards "herself".

now,

Looking at the young girl in the room who was still shedding tears unconsciously even with her eyes closed,
Fukaros had already gotten the answer he wanted from this scene.
After silently leaving the most sincere blessing for this "ordinary girl" who had endured too much pressure, she quietly disappeared into the mirror:

——From now on, you will no longer be a false substitute for the "Water God".
After having the power that matches your identity,

This "performance" has lasted for five hundred years, and no one will doubt you anymore.

——So, although this blessing comes a little late,
But please feel free to be yourself in the days ahead, "Funina".

"."

".I, am crying again?"

".Why? I should be happy."

After feeling the power to control the surrounding elements,

Although she was filled with great joy, Funina still couldn't hold back the tears that welled up in her eyes.

The white-haired girl tried to wipe away her tears with the hand that was not holding the scepter.
But this time the tears were like the loneliness and pain that had been suppressed in her heart for five hundred years. Not only could they not be wiped away no matter how hard she tried, but they even increased in number.

finally,
Perhaps it was because I finally realized that I could get rid of the days in the past when even if I cried, I could only use "too much water element" as an excuse.
The tears that originally flowed like a stream turned into an uncontrollable torrent under the surging emotions.

"."

“.No more worries, no more sleepless nights because of any doubts, no more hiding the wounds from accidental bumps on your body,
I should be laughing, why, why?"

Recalling the "words of encouragement" engraved on the scepter,
In theory, Funina should be worried about the possibility of her identity being exposed, but she was unexpectedly calm.

——As Villette said, the being who could give such a gift was a friendly being that was powerful beyond imagination.
No matter how you think about it, with that kind of power, the other party would not do this to harm you.

The emotions in my heart calmed down a little.
Finina took a deep breath and looked at the scepter in her hand that supplemented her "strength" and "dignity".

Just as if she was looking back at all the sufferings she had experienced in the past five hundred years, she spoke absentmindedly:
".Even if I have no power, am I still a qualified god?"

".Thank you, my unknown supporter."

"——I like this gift you gave me very much."
