Chapter 942 The troops are divided into two groups
After calming down considerably, Navelette was finally confident enough to talk about the matter without it raining.
Navilette: "After accepting Fucarus's invitation and becoming the Supreme Judge of Fontaine, I brought the Melosens to Fontaine."
Paimon: "So Vilette and the Melosens knew each other hundreds of years ago! That's a long time."
No wonder the people of Fontaine always associate Melousin with Navelette, and even believe that Navelette is a male Melousin.
Sue: "No wonder Melosin is your 'real spouse,' and no wonder Persephone tries so hard to become Melosin."
“You’ve seen the child,” Navelette said somewhat awkwardly. “How are she and the water dragons doing lately?”
I'm speechless.
When it comes to Percy, who can transform into Melusin's appearance, she is "that child," while those who cannot transform are "the water dragons."
It's surprising that Navelette, who represents absolute fairness in the eyes of the Fontaines, also has an unconscious bias. No wonder Percy works so hard.
Sora suddenly remembered something, "Sorry, I accidentally interrupted you again."
Paimon: "When we travelers chat, it's easy for us to go off-topic."
Navelette said sincerely, "It's alright. While calm water can be calming, jumping droplets can be quite interesting."
Sue: "Naviette, did you go to Mount Sumeru to study wondrous metaphors? Uh, let's get back to business."
Navelette nodded and continued.
Several hundred years ago, Fontaine was beset by internal and external troubles, and everything was in ruins.
Fontaine's proud fleet was completely annihilated. While natural disasters played a part, it was also a man-made disaster resulting from factional infighting among different classes and factions.
Su and Kong could easily imagine how difficult it must have been for Navilette, who was invited by Fukaros with a letter and parachuted into Fontaine's Supreme Court as a lone commander.
Su:……
Fucarus, the ultimate pit-pit master!
In his position, he was responsible for his duties. After assuming the position of Supreme Judge, Navigette quickly initiated a series of institutional reforms.
"The Melusin race originally lived entirely in isolated villages. I responded to their wishes and brought some of the Melusin to Fontaine."
"This also included my personal reasons. Meiluxin's special abilities were indeed very suitable for Zhuyingting, and at that time, I didn't have many trustworthy people around me."
The Travelers now understand even better why Violet and Melusin have such a deep bond.
Firstly, Meiluxin was a very good person, and secondly, there was a deep friendship between them.
Melousin was Navigette's de facto spouse, as well as his friend and comrade-in-arms.
“Carole, who was Melsin, and the human youth Walterin were two of my subordinates at the time who were both very capable and of excellent character.”
"However, I failed to protect them."
In the eyes of the public, the relationship between Melusin and Navelette is very special, and their every move is closely related to Navelette.
Thus, the die-hards who had suffered losses in the reforms united and used Caroline's alien identity to create a political upheaval, forcing the "non-human supreme judge" to relinquish power.
Dark rain clouds gathered over Fontaine. Navelette said slowly, "Their plot was ultimately foiled, but the price was... Carolie committed suicide, and Watlin went to prison."
The travelers' breathing became heavy as they listened.
Sue also understood why the usually calm Navelette reacted so strongly after learning that Melosin had received a threatening letter.
Before Navelette, who hadn't intended to make the atmosphere heavy, could apologize again, Sora spoke first.
Kong: "Because of past examples, you believe that there might be interest groups manipulating this incident. In that case, I suggest we approach it from two directions."
Navelette understood Kong's meaning; now was not the time to wallow in negative emotions. "I'll leave the direct perpetrators of the threatening letters to you. As for the interest groups behind them, I'll handle that."
Paimon raised his arm and shouted, "Let's wipe out all the bad guys!"
Su quickly added, "Then kill them all!"
"..." All three of them stared speechlessly at the girl who had uttered those outrageous words.
Empty: "The Laws of Fontainebleau..."
Paimon: "I don't support killing to vent anger..."
Navilette: "I understand how you feel, but..."
"Tsk!" Su was disgusted by Fontaine's weak laws. "I know, I know! I'll spare your head."
Paimon patted his chest. "Phew—thank goodness! Sue has indeed become much more mature and gentle."
The division of labor for the mission has been agreed upon, with the Traveler's team and Navilette splitting into two groups.
Navilette returned to the Moman Palace to review the cases that Chiara had handled, investigating the groups that had suffered significant losses and harbored resentment towards her.
The Travelers' team then found the guy who delivered the threatening letter through shady channels, prying information and evidence out of him to identify the mastermind behind it all.
Paimon glanced at Sue, then at the ground, "Speaking of Fontaine's shady dealings, it really is..."
"..." Su crossed her arms and looked to the side.
“Let’s go, let’s contact the Rose Society,” Kong Yichui decided.
——*——*——
Navia: "All the unfamiliar faces that have appeared in the Grey River recently are here."
"So many people were 'invited' over so quickly!" Paimon exclaimed in amazement at Navia's efficiency.
"As soon as she heard that Miss Su needed help, the young lady immediately became full of energy!" Silver quickly praised Navia.
After bowing politely, Miles said, "We have always hoped to do something to repay Miss Su."
Navia looked at the girl with sparkling eyes, "Melushin is a good friend of the Fontaine people, and the Rose Society will never stand by and watch them be in danger!"
"..." Su looked away, casually finding something to do, and fiercely grabbed a "guest" by the collar, "Tell me! Who sent the threatening letter!"
Once again ignored by the girl, Navia's bright eyes dimmed.
"Give her a little more time," Kong said softly.
Paimon nodded repeatedly, seemingly biased.
Over there, Su had already interrogated a row of people, but without any progress.
"Hmph," Su sneered, "You all say you don't know, right? Then you're all suspects and accomplices!"
Su stopped wasting words and simply beat up all the "guests".
It wasn't that no one resisted during this time; however, the stronger the resistance, the harder the punches they received.
"Stop hitting us! Please stop! We really didn't do it!"
"Help! Help! Boss, save me!"
"Thirty-eighth brother! I'll fight you to the death with the Rose Gang!"
……
Paimon tilted his head. "Uh...why is it a fight against Rose?"
Kong: "Because they can't beat Su, they can only resent the Thorn Rose Society for capturing them."
Su Yi tossed her long hair, found a chair, and sat down. "Intermission!"
Upon hearing that there was a second half, the "guests" who had already had their fill of the "iron fist of justice" felt even more like crying.
"We didn't do it! We really didn't do it!"
"Please! Please have mercy and let us go..."
"Let him go?" Su threatened skillfully, "As long as the criminal isn't found, you'll all be getting punched every day!"
"What does this have to do with us?" someone said, feeling wronged and indignant. "You're just taking your anger out on us!"
Is there no morality left? Is there no law left? Do these gangsters have absolutely no human rights?
“Yes, I took my anger out on you, so what?” Su said matter-of-factly. “If you continue to make me unhappy, I’ll hold you accountable and even exterminate your entire family!”
"Waaah..." The burly man, with no way to appeal, curled up in a ball in frustration.
The gang leaders exchanged glances, gritted their teeth, and said, "We'll help you find him! We'll definitely find that scoundrel!"
Su snapped her fingers, and the thorn rose gang's underlings opened the guarded gate with great tact.
“Go ahead, you can take this opportunity to escape.” Su pulled out a dagger and examined the blade against the light. “However, once I catch you…”
"Then you'll have to bear the consequences."
