but.
The sword of justice that she had cultivated and grown with "great pains" began to become restless again.
Yes, as early as the last time the court trial was started, Fucaros had noticed something strange. The sword of justice seemed to have sensed some kind of call and wanted to leave her uncontrollably. Fortunately, she forcibly suppressed it at that time.
"This is normal. I am the God of Water and the God of Justice. How could the Cardinal of Oracle and the Sword of Justice, which I personally forged, be the exclusive weapons of others? Even the strongest righteousness that Lady Egolia heard the Great Kindness Tree King mention at the gathering of the Seven Gods could not do it, right?" Fukaros always thought so.
How is it possible that the summoning device I made could be used better by the enemy and even allow others to unlock its upgraded form?
That's not called the strongest righteousness, but rather it's called righteousness causing evil!
If it's really that outrageous, why not just pack her up and send her out to the other party for use!
but now--
"Here comes the sword!"
Inside the empty opera house, a confident voice that was exactly the same as Fukalos's echoed.
Fukalos knew that it was Finina, her ideal human self. She was looking forward to Finina's growth and hoped that she would live in this world in her place after the plan was completed.
But the question is...why would the Cardinal of Oracle and the Sword of Justice obey Furninda's call?
Furninna, I am the water god!
But now she had no ability to resist, because it was not only the giant sword above her head that was shaking, the entire space inside the Cardinal of Oracle and Judgment was shaking like an earthquake, and the channel that was originally used to absorb the power of the outside world now burst out with a huge suction force like a black hole, as if it wanted to pack up Fucaros and the Sword of Justice and send them out together.
Cardinal of the Decree, have you betrayed me too?
"How could this happen..." Fucaros stood there in a daze. She relied on the power of the Heart of God to barely resist the suction, but when she saw the Sword of Justice transform into a deep blue beam of light and shoot straight into the sky, about to leave the Cardinal of Oracle and Judgment, she realized that it was useless for her to stay alone.
She followed closely behind, clinging to the hilt of the dark blue giant sword like an octopus, trying to keep it, and almost cried out of grievance: "You can't leave! What should I do without you?"
Fucaros must not let her plan be ruined, and the changes at this time made her feel that things were completely out of control.
She suspected that Funina had opened it, and there was definitely a cheat in this game.
Perhaps her sincerity moved the Sword of Justice, and Fucaros felt that the hilt of the sword she was holding suddenly stopped.
however.
Just as she showed a look of joy on her face, her expression suddenly froze... because the dark blue giant sword just stayed in place and changed its form, shrinking itself from a giant sword into a long sword that can be held in one hand by a human, making it easier for the new owner to control it.
Seeing the sword of justice she had forged with her own hands transformed into someone else's shape in front of her, Fukalos was hesitant to speak... It was the first time she wanted to say "Fontaine swear word" since she became conscious.
At this moment, she heard the voice of a strange man asking "borrow my sword", and then the sword of justice turned into a stream of light and disappeared.
When Funina heard this voice, she finally couldn't help but respond: "Fuck!"
"Who is this guy?"
In the empty opera house, only Fucaros was left standing there, gritting his teeth.
She could only pray that the other party wasn't the kind of jerk who borrowed things and didn't return them.
And...what about Furninna?
Am I a substitute?
idiot!
...
real world.
"What is this?"
Under Vashie's incredulous gaze, a deep blue beam of light shot straight into the sky from the center of the Opicle Opera House, suddenly tearing through the clouds.
Layer upon layer of continuous blue ripples spread rapidly, causing the celestial phenomena of Iliye Island to change in an instant.
The source of the earth-shaking, the deep blue sword formed by countless beliefs in justice, turned into a stream of light and fell into Finina's hands.
"Vashie...guilty, penalty: death penalty!"
At Fang Yun's suggestion, the Cardinal did not use the previous paper judgment. Instead, he turned the trial result into invisible ripples that spread quickly and were transmitted to all the audience present.
What era is it now? Why are we still using traditional judgments?
All the people watching in Fontaine were stunned.
They were not surprised that Finina could demonstrate divine power, but they never thought that the Cardinal, who had always been as fair as a scale, would have such a strong response.
In the impression of the people of Fontaine, the Cardinal of the Decree symbolizes the absolute justice of Fontaine. No matter how intense the discussion is, the Cardinal of the Decree will always give the most fair decision. Even the highest judge, Lord Villette, uses the verdict issued by him as the standard.
But now, the cardinal not only made the judgment off the stage, but even brought out an "execution sword", which had never happened in Fontaine's history.
"What happened? What happened?"
"Oh my god, Lord Water God, there is actually a death penalty in Fontaine!"
"Although we have witnessed the entire trial process and the prisoner confessed in person, it was after all off-stage. Can the Cardinal of the Decree make a judgment? Moreover, this level of response... Even Lord Villette has never had it before, right?"
"Then Lord Villette only read out the result of the verdict. Now the sword of execution gathered by the faith of justice is simply throwing itself into his arms! Lord Finina is worthy of being the God of Justice!"
Indeed, only Lady Funina can make Fontaine great again!
The people of Fontaine were instantly excited when they saw Funina holding a blue sword and looking down on the whole audience like a queen.
Although there were no loopholes in the water god played by Funina before, facing the increasingly approaching prophecy and various changes occurring in various countries, a water god with the image of a funny person obviously cannot make the people feel at ease. What everyone is looking forward to is the image of a god with powerful military force like the Rock King and the Thunder General.
After all, faith is not something that can be eaten. The rising water level of Fontaine Lake has submerged many people's homes, and the Momang Palace has been slow to give a positive response. Even if everyone believes in Funina, they can't help but have some doubts.
But today, that doubt has vanished.
"Funina, the eternal God!"
"This is Furninna, the power of God!"
However, listening to the people's praises and cheers, and watching Charlotte and others taking out their cameras to take pictures, Funina herself panicked.
Although she has always dreamed of becoming Lanaro's Jinchuriki and dared to brag about anything after becoming inflated, she still has a bit of Hercules in her heart.
"Wait, Lan Fangyun, are we okay like this?" Furniture's panicked voice rang beside Fangyun's ears, "Is the Cardinal of Decree broken? How did a sword suddenly appear?"
Although the people of Fontaine thought that the Cardinal Oracle was her work, only Funina herself knew that this thing was actually prepared by herself in the mirror, and it should play a very important role in the plan to save Fontaine.
"Don't worry, it's just that the Cardinal of the Decree is more enthusiastic."
"But this is too much enthusiasm! The most it has ever done is to spit out a piece of paper with a verdict!"
"Maybe it's your fault too?"
"I?"
Furninna was a little surprised. What did this have to do with her?
"Although I am indeed responsible for this, you should be able to realize that this sword can also be controlled by you... because you have also gained its recognition." Fang Yun said softly.
Finina was stunned. When she heard that she could also control the Sword of Justice, she suddenly felt an indescribable joy in her heart.
She is a fake water goddess who will be brought to trial and accused by countless people of Fontaine once she is discovered. How could she be qualified to be on par with gods?
"What's wrong? King of Waters, you are the God of Justice of Fontaine."
"Yes...yes, but..."
Finina was a little flustered, she was used to being humble, and no one had ever talked to her like this, she still regarded herself as an impostor, plus she had to keep the secret alone, so she had such a heavy psychological burden and developed PTSD about the identity of the Water God.
"Listen... the people are calling your name now." Fang Yun said softly, "King of Waters, you told me that you don't have divine power now, but haven't you been recognized by the people of Fontaine over the past five hundred years? Everyone cares about you and pays attention to you. You are not as unimportant as you think."
This is what he has always wanted to tell Funina, that she doesn't need to be so humble and should boldly face everything about herself.
This is also to help Funina resolve the issue of "playing the role of the Water God" and let her know that she has not lost herself. The Water God is also an identity of hers and a part of her life. She does not need to have such a heavy psychological burden, completely separating herself from the identity of the Water God and thinking of herself as just a simple actor.
"You are worthy of the title of Water God. Now go and do what you want to do." Fang Yun said meaningfully, returning control of the body to Funina.
Am I really worthy of the title of Water God?
Funina was stunned, but she knew that there were more important things for her to do now. She had to enforce "justice" for Fontaine.
Now is the time of judgment!
She took a deep breath and stepped forward with the sword in hand.
"How's it going, Vash? I've already granted you the death penalty you requested."
In front of her, Vashe, who was detained by the security team, had his eyes wide open and his face pale as he kept retreating towards Lu Jingquan.
The guards tried to hold him back, but every step Furniture took seemed to be stepping on his heart. The creature's instinctive fear of death almost made him lose his mind. He didn't even realize he had fallen. He just stood up awkwardly and crawled backwards.
"Wait...what are you doing!" Vashey's terrified tone could no longer be concealed, "You tampered with the decision of the Cardinal of the Decree! This is unfair! You are not qualified to judge me!"
"Oh? Weren't you looking forward to being sentenced to death? To be honest, I've never heard such a strange request." This was the first time that Funina treated others with such a cold attitude. She spoke in the voice of a queen, "Besides, I am the God of Justice. My decree is the will of Fontaine. I can even judge the gods, so who are you?"
"you!"
"What do you mean? Why, you're not convinced?"
Vashie was speechless. Only then did he realize how stupid it was to use the rules set by the gods to restrict the gods.
His chest was heaving violently because of fear: "Wait, since you are the God of Justice, you should give me a chance to repent. Besides, I have done some research on the original fetal sea, I..."
"I don't need your apology or atonement. It would be better for everyone if people like you died earlier." Furniture interrupted him. "You don't think we have to beg you to repent, do you? Mr. Vash, you really have the talent of a comedian."
If crimes are not punished, then this just country becomes a joke.
Her slender fingertips lightly brushed across the dark blue sword, infusing it with water elemental power, forcing Vashie to retreat step by step until he reached the gushing Lujing Spring.
"I'm telling you all this because the time of execution has come... What awaits you is not just death."
Amid the admiration of the people of Fontaine, Funina swung her sword with a cold look and turned Vashie into ashes with one blow. As the goddess of water, she enforced justice.
"This demon who despised life is finally dead!" the people applauded.
They had no objection to Funina's verdict, because Funina was the goddess of justice, and Vash requested the death penalty in front of her. Wasn't it reasonable that Lady Funina was understanding and agreed?
But they did not see that after Vashé's death, a shadow that looked like a soul emerged and was thrown into the Lujing Spring.
This is Fang Yun's work.
While tapping the ground with his walking stick and using the element of water to create tides, Fang Yun heard a sound coming from the water... As early as when he first entered Fontainebleau, he discovered that he could sense the remaining emotions in the water, but he didn't expect it to come in handy now.
At this moment, in the consciousness space formed by the flow of Lujingquan water.
Vash, who was executed by the Sword of Justice, looked down at his body in disbelief. The destructive power contained in the belief in justice just now shattered his whole body. He has not recovered from the pain until now, and his consciousness seems to flicker like a candle in the wind.
But no matter what, he didn't die.
"No... I am still dead, I just entered the Lujing Spring, wait..." Vashie suddenly realized something. He looked around and found himself in a stream of water, surrounded by pure water elves.
This instantly replaced the pain on his face with surprise.
Isn't this the dissolution he longs for? In this way, he can see his beloved Weiniel.
Navia, Funina, and those stupid people of Fontaine, the justice of Fontaine is really ridiculous. Melo Petersburg has become a shelter for some people who deserve to die, and I, whom you hated, got what I wanted after my death.
He laughed wildly, then looked at the pure water elf beside him.
He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he found that these pure water elves were getting closer and closer to him.
"Viniel, is that you?" Vash looked at the pure water elf closest to him.
The pure water elf nodded and said in the soft voice of Vinel: "Vash, it's me, you are finally here."
"Is it really you? Vinier... I have been suffering for more than twenty years since the day you left. During these twenty years, I have only lived to resurrect you. I finally meet you again." Vashie burst into tears.
But he suddenly felt a little strange, because after he reunited with Vinel, the other pure water elves also came up to him and stared at him.
"Viniel, are they your friends?" Vash's face changed slightly, and he vaguely sensed something strange.
But it's too late.
"They are also Vinel." The pure water elf no longer concealed and showed a cruel smile, "Every girl who died in your hands, her consciousness returned to the original fetal sea. Our consciousness kept flowing in the fetal sea, and now we have merged into one. And your Vinel, she never wants to see a demon like you again... Go to hell, Vashe."
Dozens of pure water elves gathered around and rushed forward, tearing Vash's soul into dozens of pieces, just like the dissolution experiment he had done on the girls.
...
After looking at this scene, Fang Yun withdrew his gaze.
Fang Yun had no sympathy for Vashé's ending, because that was the sin he had committed himself, and the victim took more than 20 years to take revenge on him, which was a slap in the face of the word justice.
Especially if he had not intervened just now, things would have really been as Vashey said, with a maximum sentence of life imprisonment.
Fang Yun had never dealt with Melo Petersburg, but he had heard from Navia and the others that this could be seen as a "country within a country" in Fontaine. Many prisoners were unwilling to leave even after their sentences had expired. With Vash's ability, he might be able to live much better than ordinary people in this place. This would be too ironic.
"There are indeed some problems with Fontaine's laws." Funina also sighed softly.
