Chapter 239: That Villette, you are actually from the Chiming tribe!
Villette sat upright, looking at the letter on the table, which was placed strictly parallel to the edge of the table. A letter was not worthy of the attention of the Grand Inquisitor who worked so hard and for 500 years.
Of note is the decoration on the envelope seal.
——A lifelike aqua blue butterfly.
The added beauty of this butterfly is secondary. The key to its ability to stop the Chief Judge from working is the amount of information it adds.
Hundreds of years ago, the water god wrote a letter inviting the Water Dragon King to Fontainebleau. After being accepted, Funina made several promises with him.
This includes the criticality level of the information being transmitted.
The water element seal represents normality;
The water vortex seal represents that it is worthy of attention;
The crystal butterfly flapping its wings represents the highest level of urgency.
Villette clearly remembered that even 400 years ago, during the extremely serious Melusin case that provoked racial conflicts, Ms. Funina did not use this seal.
In just this moment, Villette made her plan. She opened the envelope and saw the special format and the most important address.
Debo Hotel.
"Sedna, I'm going to leave Momang Palace."
"I understand, Lord Villette. You don't have any cases to hear today, so please rest assured." Sedna nodded while holding the documents.
…
Cesar is performing a magic trick.
To be precise, the protagonists who went back to the past to investigate the case were forcibly controlled by the "cutscene" of the "Table Theater".
"There's a plot-killing!" Navia complained softly, "Does this mean our next actions are limited to investigating the case and won't be able to change the future?"
Peruvian nodded slightly, "Very sharp."
"Ahem!" Krevy looked at Navia with a smile in her eyes, "Miss, it's time to say that sentence—"
"Hey hey hey! Really?" Navia scratched her head embarrassedly, "Why are you suddenly calling me Miss now?"
Clorinde also spoke up, "Miss, it's up to you."
"I understand!" Navia shuddered, raised her head and chest, and her serious expression took on a bit of holiness. She took a few steps forward -
"Can I use [Persuasion] on him?"
Pointing to the magician Cesar who can turn rainbow roses into soft lanterns, sea dew flowers into soft lanterns, lily of the valley into soft lanterns... everything can become a soft lantern, and he is controlled by the soft lantern devil.
Furninna: Huh?
Convince him not to perform?
The answer came out quickly. During the fate test, Cesar used his actions to tell them that it was not possible.
Even though he had disrupted the children's plans, there was still a lingering hint of joy on his face.
Cesar: V.
Ming Chong: Very good, my friend, you have grasped the essence.
The time it takes for a magical girl to transform is also counted, so as a villain, you have to take advantage of this opportunity to interrupt the transformation!!!
"This is indeed a good approach." Peruvili folded his arms and nodded, looking at Ming Chong with an inexplicable tolerance and kindness in his eyes.
This is what it's like to be a father.

Unlike Ming Chong, who is caught in the battle to defend his father's position.
Krewe gave a fair assessment, "Pepe looks like a father."
To put it the other way around, Ming Chong isn't much of a father. He might not even understand love, but instead skips that step and aspires to be a father.
"…Are you polite? And isn't this off topic?"
No.
The future top two leaders of the second generation of the Thorn Rose Society shook their heads simultaneously. "Perhaps we'll discover the descendants of the time travelers during the investigation?"
Navia's eyes lit up surprisingly. "That's right! Now we can get to the point! - "When I grew up, I met my 18-year-old father."
"Oh, my lovely niece Navia!" Ming Chong's voice was calm and unperturbed, and he used a sarcastic translation tone, "I really should kick your ass with my boot."
However, it turns out that it can happen.
"That's great, Villette. You finally arrived!" Furninna left the children behind with different expressions, looking touched.
——Great, great! No matter what happens next, it can finally be resolved. Well... at least the script of "Table Theater" is complete.
Besides, with so many people here and the situation becoming so complicated, everyone here has a responsibility to satisfy everyone; it's no use playing catch-up.
But to make everyone unhappy...
Funina is quite sure about this!
"Wait, why is it the Chief Judge?" Navia covered her mouth and looked around, hoping that no one would notice her bad mouth.
Clorinde was silent for a moment. Not wanting to spoil the fun of the duel agent, she clearly sensed that things were starting to go in a strange direction. "Is this also part of the script, Miss Fininna?"
Finina, the instigator, was about to nod, but the burning gaze from the side stopped her from saying anything.
Villette's expressionless face was filled with confusion, bewilderment, doubt, and a little bit of grievance of being left out by everyone.
"..." Funina had a bad feeling. To verify it, she elbowed Ming Chong and asked in a low voice, "So Violet is your child, right? Weren't you looking for him the last time you met me?"
Villette twitched his ears but remained silent. A closer look would have revealed that he was silently following the two's whispers.
This is understandable because everyone around you is like that.
Ming Chong had some doubts in his heart, but he nodded confidently.
Before Funina could say anything else, Ming Chong elbowed her and chuckled, "But didn't I run into you then? I didn't look for you! So, it should, seems like, probably, possibly... I didn't have time to raise it this time."
Funina:?
!
"Then what's the point of all the emotions, time, and effort I've put into it? I even helped raise you for so long!"
"Didn't I tell you that it's too late this time? I will definitely raise it with you next time!" Ming Chong vowed.
Fu Nina stared at Ming Chong for a moment, then angrily said, "No need!"
—Damn Impas! You keep forgetting to even tell me your real name, how could I possibly remember it?
Thinking about it again, Funina became even more sad and angry.
—I knew it! He raised her, but whether he raised her well or not is another matter. Most importantly, just like forgetting to mention his real name, this bastard forgot to tell Villette about their father-son relationship!!!
So, what is the significance of the Chief Judge who had to help clean up the mess so many times?
——Is he that awesome?!
Navilette: ...
The story behind it wasn't clear, but everyone here was familiar. From the Rose of the Thorn, the Hearth House, the Citizens of Fontaine, to the Water God, and the familiar faces that had been seen for 500 years, Villette didn't know how they had come together, but he understood a little bit.
——Ms. Funina has always treated him as a left-behind water dragon and helped "raise" him.
"It seems that in Ms. Funina's eyes, I am Mr. Impas's child... Then, I would like to ask, how did you misunderstand?"
Navrette nodded politely to everyone and looked at Impas. "I'm sorry, I don't remember where I've seen you before you were accepted by Lady Funina."
After all, Navelette, the dragon who was born in human form and has been immersed in water for countless years, was born without a father or a mother, and is the only Water Dragon King.
Ming Chong was amused by this scene.

Seriously, even if it was just to play for a while longer, he wouldn't open up his memory permissions to Villette!
So, Ming Chong said cheerfully, "There's no misunderstanding! Son, if you have any doubts about the father-son relationship..."
Before he finished speaking, a blue-green air current gradually enveloped the young man. When it faded, the man had dragon horns on his head and a dragon tail behind him. He smiled, "What about this look?"
Navilette: pupil earthquake.jpg
It’s not that I completely believe it. After all, in the continent of Teyvat, the Dragon King is the leader of the dragon lizards, so most of them are Western dragons that are close to lizards.
The image of the Eastern Dragon, like the dragon form of the Liyue Rock God, can only be called a dragon-shaped creature because its original form is a celestial star.
However, the real dragon king, which is similar to this dragon shape, is the grass dragon king, which is closer to the shape of a snake.
All I can say is that there is a certain chain of clues behind the Grand Judge, but not much.
Then, Ming Chong explained seriously, "We, the Chiming Clan, are all without parents. When our lives come to an end, we will transform into eggs and return to reincarnation. This way, we can avoid the mental wear and tear that comes with immortality."
Navilette: Cosmic Cat Head.jpg
I couldn't help but nod.
"However, precisely because we have no parents, when we first break out of our shells, we all rely on our friends from our previous lives or dragon masters for guidance. That's how our relationship is with Violet."
"But...this is not father and son." He was silent for a moment.
Ming Chong: He believed it, he believed it!
Funina who sees through everything: turning her back on everything.jpg
"You're right." Ming Chong nodded, smiling like a Mona Lisa. "But child, the Chiming people can't transform into dragons. They only have slightly pointed ears and a longer lifespan, but the rest of their appearance is no different from humans. Transforming into a dragon... is something only the Dragon Lords of the Chiming people can do."
Navelette, who couldn't transform into a dragon, only had slightly pointed ears, a long lifespan, and looked like a human: ...
Don't make any noise, I'm grilling.jpg
"So..." That Villette couldn't help but speak.
"So, I used my own blood to purify it for you, but unfortunately, it was only half successful. You still couldn't transform into a dragon, and you only gained water-related offensive techniques. In fact, a true Dragon Lord possesses both offensive and defensive abilities."
Ming Chong: Look at my sincere eyes!
Overwhelmed by the barrage of information, Navelette was caught in three philosophical questions: Who am I? Where am I? What should I do?
Logically speaking, Mr. Impas had the motive to deceive, but 500 years of getting along was enough for Navelette to draw a conclusion.
Impas is not capable of weaving such a complete and logically consistent lie.
Finally, he gradually began to doubt everything:
——So, I'm not the Water Dragon King at all? I'm a member of the Chiming clan who failed to transform into a dragon? !!!
Fortunately, the Chief Judge, who had worked for 500 years, came to his senses and discovered a suspicious point. "But Mr. Impas, do the Chiming Clan, or the Dragon Lord, have the power to travel through time and space?"
"Yeah, do they have it?"
nod.jpg
Meeting Villette's serious gaze, Ming Chong chuckled, "If you want to know the answer to this question, then—"
“Join our “Table Theater”!
Raise your hands high, and let the holy light shine upon you.jpg
Looking around, she found that there were still children who believed Ming Chong's words. Funina shook her head: Alas, I told you to interrupt the transformation, why don't you believe it?
