Qin Yu and Sangonomiya Kokomi walked together to the vicinity of the lake where Lumine was undergoing special training.
Here, the grass was lush and green, and the breeze was gentle and warm.
Of course, there were also Paimon’s screams echoing from afar.
“Good afternoon, my Lord Justice.”
Furina, still in her cat form, noticed them and greeted them elegantly.
“Good afternoon, Miss Furina.”
Qin Yu shook her cat paw, revealing a satisfied smile.
Who could refuse a cat’s little paw pads?
Seeing her squinting her eyes and lazily basking in the sun, she looked truly relaxed.
High EQ, a sophisticated lady’s life.
Low EQ, another god slacking off.
“Miss Furina.”
Sangonomiya Kokomi bowed her head slightly, instinctively standing behind Qin Yu, making her look like a demure newlywed.
After all, the person in front of them was a true deity.
“Sit down.”
Miss Furina nodded, then said no more, picking up her brush and sketching casually on the paper.
“…”
Qin Yu and Sangonomiya Kokomi took their seats.
On the simple stone table, several cups of hot tea emitted wisps of steam.
“Who else?”
Qin Yu noticed that there were more than three seats and asked curiously.
He also leaned closer to Miss Furina to take a peek.
So, she was sketching from life.
Music, painting, fashion…
It was clear that Furina was a god who truly loved art.
However, this casual movement brought an unexpected turn.
“Lord Justice, who were you with just now?”
Miss Furina sniffed, putting down her brush.
She cast a strange glance at him, as if appraising a prisoner about to be judged.
“I was with Ei and the others for a while.”
Qin Yu coughed lightly and vaguely replied, muttering to himself.
After spending a pleasant time with the Raiden Sisters, they had also soaked in hot springs. Surely, no scent should have lingered?
But looking at Miss Furina’s reaction…
Oh no, had she sensed something?
“Heh… interesting. It seems you don’t know yet. This surprise.”
Miss Furina smiled playfully, then withdrew her gaze, saying no more.
That inadvertently alluring charm made one’s heart itch.
“You and Ei both said that, what kind of surprise is it!”
Qin Yu couldn’t sit still and pressed on.
Could they please stop deliberately building suspense? If this continued, he would break.
“Oh… so it’s the Electro God.”
A flicker of surprise crossed Furina’s beautiful eyes, but she clearly seemed disbelieving, “With a god’s physique, it’s so easy?”
Saying this, she grabbed Qin Yu’s arm and leaned in to smell him again.
It was indeed that scent, no doubt about it.
“What can you smell?” Qin Yu asked.
“Cats are extremely sensitive to changes in scent, so naturally, they can confirm another’s physical state.”
Miss Furina extended her cat paw, pushing his face back, and rolled her eyes.
This scent naturally included…
Pregnancy.
A cat indeed possessed this ability.
“So… your true form is a cat?”
Qin Yu was stunned, not processing it immediately.
Wait, that wasn’t the main point!
As soon as the words left his mouth, cool water droplets flew and splashed across his face.
Qin Yu’s vision went black, and he instinctively closed his eyes.
At this moment.
“It’s just the Water’s transformation. You wouldn’t understand even if I told you.”
“And… my exclusive Lord Justice…”
A faint voice sounded in his ear, playful in tone.
At the same time, a warm and moist breath blew across his cheek.
“Doing something so big has made this lady’s heart feel a bit uncomfortable.”
“?”
Qin Yu shivered and opened his eyes in disbelief.
He turned his head and met a pair of azure blue eyes.
A breathtakingly beautiful face, with skin that looked as if it could be broken by a gentle touch.
The blue and white noble dress accentuated the girl’s elegant and refined ladylike demeanor, making her exquisitely beautiful.
For a moment, the air fell silent.
“Are you… Miss Furina?”
Finally, Sangonomiya Kokomi’s small mouth parted, breaking the hushed atmosphere.
That big cat could actually transform into a beautiful girl!
“Mhm.”
Furina’s lips curved into a slight smile, and she slowly pushed herself up, leaning away from Qin Yu.
She was very satisfied with his stunned reaction.
No one could resist her charm.
Including the Lord Justice she had designated.
“Miss Furina?!”
Qin Yu’s eyes lit up.
So the cat he had been interacting with for so long could actually turn into a beautiful girl!
But clearly, she wasn’t here to repay a favor.
“Are you surprised? This is a clone created by the Great Dreamer.”
“The troubles in Fontaine have just concluded, so I came to take a look.”
Miss Furina leaned back in her chair, crossing her slender, fair legs and swinging them gently.
Don’t think she didn’t know.
Someone had been staring impolitely just now.
“Cough cough… it is quite surprising.”
Qin Yu coughed lightly and pretended to be serious, averting his gaze.
Miss Furina was indeed a peerless beauty.
But soon, he remembered.
He still hadn’t been told what Ei’s surprise was!
“Dispel your thoughts. This lady is not someone who doesn’t understand romance.”
Miss Furina picked up her teacup, a hint of mischievousness in her eyes as she teased him.
There was more than one deity connected to Qin Yu.
She wanted to see how spectacular the ensuing Archon War would be once this fuse was lit.
She was indeed a troublemaker.
“…Alright.”
Qin Yu sighed, giving up on guessing.
What surprise could there be? At worst, he wouldn’t want it!
“Alright, let’s get back to the main topic.”
“The reason for finding you now is the result of our discussion among the gods.”
Miss Furina propped her chin and looked towards the distant lake, her beautiful eyes narrowing.
Unlike the Traveler, Qin Yu was already a god-level existence.
What he needed was naturally not guidance in combat.
“What are your plans, Miss Furina?”
Qin Yu subtly shifted his seat, moving closer to her.
His expectant rubbing of his hands clearly indicated he couldn’t wait any longer.
Ei and the others had already made a good start, entrusting their dreams to him wholeheartedly.
So, what good things would this Hydro Archon from Fontaine bring?
Was she going to teach him powerful authority?
Or perhaps legendary divine artifacts and treasures?
It was fine, he wasn’t picky.
“…”
“My Lord Justice, it seems you’re already impatient.”
Miss Furina beckoned with her finger, signaling Qin Yu to lean closer for a whisper.
Qin Yu complied.
A intoxicatingly faint, elegant fragrance, with a hint of warmth, entered his nose.
The two were almost touching, as if whispering secrets into each other’s ears.
“Would you like to move to Fontaine City and live here?”
Miss Furina admired Qin Yu’s handsome profile up close and teased him.
Where Sangonomiya Kokomi couldn’t see, she quietly blew a puff of warm air.
“Miss Furina is joking. I’m unfamiliar with the place, where would I live?”
“Living with this lady is not impossible either.”
The devil whispered.
“…That sort of thing can be discussed later.”
Qin Yu was helpless and changed the subject.
Where was his reward?
“A reward? Then I’ll tell you a secret.”
“As the Hydro God, I can feel it.”
“This child, Sangonomiya Kokomi… the blood of the Oceanids flows within her.”
“…”
Qin Yu’s eyes slowly widened.
Were the ornamental fish about to become Oceanids comparable in strength to the Seven Archons?!
