Genshin Impact is a big stage, come if you dare

Chapter 958 Tabletop Theater

After confirming the number of players participating in the game, Florian left first to arrange props and adjust the scene.

A group of people strolled slowly toward the beach outside the city.

Navia thought it over and over again, and after much effort, she finally mustered up her courage.

"Lady Funina, I'm so sorry!" Navia bowed to Funina. "I've always wanted to apologize to you in person..."

But she could never find the right opportunity.

If Sue were by Lady Funina's side, she would have absolutely no courage to show herself and get in their way.

If Sue wasn't by Lady Funina's side, she...would be even less likely to show up casually.

I was worried that Lady Funina would be scared, and I was also worried that Su would be even angrier if she found out later.

“I apologize for my immature behavior, I…” Navia choked back tears of shame, “I have always been grateful for your love, yet I…”

“I was wrong too.” Clorind knelt down on one knee and presented her pistol. “As your bodyguard, I failed in my duty. This life is now in your hands.”

Linni bowed his head, representing the House of Hearths in confession, "I also bear an inescapable responsibility, I am willing..."

"What's going on all of a sudden!" Funina anxiously tried to pull them up while also covering Sue's ears, running around in circles.

"We're here to play games, do we have to make the atmosphere so serious?"

Su Cai finally agreed to let go of those things, so please don't remind her of them!

In fact, she had already sensed their remorse and accepted their apology.

Clarinde moved to the same apartment building and became her hidden bodyguard.

The members of the Rose Society and the children of the Hearth House also secretly helped her "invite" away many strange people.

This "job," which offers neither pay nor recognition, will likely continue until she no longer needs it.

“Alright, alright,” Paimon said, trying to smooth things over. “Let’s talk about the theater troupe’s games.”

If we continue to talk about things that Su doesn't want to hear, her bad temper will definitely be triggered!

Claurind nodded and said as if reporting a task, "This script is adapted from the history of the Shadowhunters."

As a true Shadowhunter, she had to admit that the scriptwriter, Florian, was quite capable; the plot details were very well done.

Funina was very interested in excellent scripts. "Could I take a look?" she asked.

Claurind shook her head. "I only have a part of the script, and as a player, seeing the plot in advance will affect your gaming experience."

Funina: "Alright then, let's wait and see after the game ends. Hopefully, it'll be an interesting adventure."

——*——*——

A group of people arrived at their destination. Two tents were set up on the beach, along with a long table with many small props.

Su walked over and found two tents. One tent contained a lot of clothes, seemingly a changing room. The other tent contained dessert tarts and tea.

"Wow—" Paimon happily twirled in the air, "Was all of this prepared for us? How lavish! How thoughtful!"

Funina was also pleasantly surprised, "It's practically a tea party!"

Having afternoon tea and playing games with a group of friends... it's like a dream!

Linnie: "Hmm, it seems that Mr. Florian is indeed very good at innovation and improving customer experience. If the game is also very fun, he will definitely make a fortune."

"What would you like to eat or drink? I'll get it for you!" Navia ran around enthusiastically, taking good care of the girls and making them feel comfortable.

As a seasoned player in Tabletop Theatre, Clarinde took on the role of facilitator, patiently guiding the newcomers.

"Please take a seat, then open the envelope in front of you to set your identity and skills."

"As shadow hunters hidden among the crowd, you have ordinary professions."

Furna drew the Bard card from a pile of identity cards.

Funina: "Uh... I am quite good at singing, but what skills are actually useful for this profession?"

Sue thought of a certain professional bard, "Hmm... singing for three days can earn you a glass of apple wine from Dawn Winery."

Even Funina was speechless. "Are there really bards this miserable?!" She was so miserable that she even wanted to donate money to them!

No, no, how could a bard end up like this? Su must be joking with her, hahaha.

"Su, what did you draw?" Funina leaned closer to look at the girl's identity card. "Chef? What skills does a chef have?"

“The chef can cook delicious food and restore the team’s morale!” Paimon, who shared an identity card with Su, explained.

"That's right, the chef's skills are amazing!" Chef Su commanded with an air of authority, "Paimon, breathe fire!"

"Paymon, I can't breathe fire!" Paymon jumped up and down. "Tell me! Are you eyeing Xiangling's kitchen helper again?"

Once exposed, Su looked at everything but Paimon's eyes.

"Alright, alright," Furina scooped Paimon up and hugged him to comfort him, "Have you all chosen your classes and skills?"

Navia eagerly raised her hand, "I chose persuasion and investigation, which are easier for gathering intelligence. Any situation requiring negotiation can be left to me!"

Linni nodded. "Then I'll choose Stealth and Dexterity. In case we encounter a situation where we can't negotiate, we'll have another option to get through the challenge."

"It's like the roles in a theater troupe, each with its own function," Funina remarked.

“I chose art and performance, although I don’t know what it’s for. I don’t know much about the other skills either… I hope I won’t hold anyone back.”

Navia waved her hands frantically, "No, no! If we all work together, we'll definitely get a perfect score!"

Clarinde looked at Sue, "Young Shadow Hunter, may I ask what your ordinary identity and skills are?"

Su smiled confidently, "My skills as a chef are cooking and administering medicine!"

Having frequently served as a host and seen many storms and troublemakers, Clarind nodded. "Role identities have been selected. Hidden identity: Shadow Hunter established. Hidden skill point +1. Each of you can also choose one additional skill."

Funinga glanced at the newly released list of hidden classes and skills. "The Shadow Hunter's built-in combat skills are really impressive. What's this summoning skill?"

Su thought the Summon skill was perfect for Funina, "Choose, choose, Summon the Seafood Army to battle!"

Funina was speechless. "What seafood army? Be careful, or Lady Hevima will get angry and spray bubbles all over your face."

Paimon shook his head. "You'll only make Sue happier if you say that." Bubble rain and all that, it's just a dreamlike scene!

Linni read the skill description: "Summons a character or creature that fits the script setting in a specific occasion or situation."

Linni stroked his chin thoughtfully, "What kind of thing would be summoned by a Shadow Hunter...?"

Navia immediately checked the summoning skill box. "If you're curious, let's all choose them. Anyway, it's the host's job to explain how it's done!"
