Genshin Impact: This fireplace house is your graveyard.

Chapter 151 The True Strength of the 4th Seat

The voices of the Fools' messengers echoed through the room once more, and Kujavina looked at the masked man before her with amusement. "Little friend, it seems this is our first meeting."

"Can you explain to me why you attacked my people in the Gray River?" The masked man didn't respond immediately, but slowly gathered energy in his hands.

As the surging energy within him roared like a tidal wave, the masked man's body erupted with energy, and a scaly demonic dragon blade materialized in his hand. Though his expression beneath the mask remained hidden...

But the masked man before them, his eyes glowing purple, spoke in a low, cold voice filled with madness and rage, enunciating each word clearly: "You are the Fourth Seat."

As he spoke, the masked man in front of him lowered his voice and burst into a maniacal, morbid laugh, "Hahahaha. A hundred years of blood debt..."

"You'll pay for his sins today," Kujavina said, her smile fading as she looked at the crazed man before her and felt his breath.

This also dispelled her doubts. A century of blood debt—it seemed they were enemies of the Fatui. Kujavina then spoke up, "Oh? It seems..."

It seems this child has some past animosity towards our organization. If this isn't resolved, it might affect us in the future.

As Kujavina spoke, she slowly stood up, holding the potted plant in her hands. Just as she rose, the masked man before her...

He instantly transformed into a purple shadow, slashing his blade at Kujavina. With a flash of sparks from the friction of the blades, Kujavina was instantly...

She conjured a one-handed sword in her hand and caught the masked man's swung blade. Kujavina was also looking at the potted plant she was holding in her other hand.

Then he slowly turned his head to look at the masked man in front of him, his eyes wide and his smile extremely arrogant, "The powerful divine power, like a raging torrent, is in your hands."

"It's just child's play," but as soon as Kujavina finished speaking, the sword in the masked man's hand instantly absorbed all the purplish-black energy from its blade.

At that moment, the blade instantly turned pitch black, radiating endless black light like the night sky. "Profound and Radiant!" the masked man uttered in a low voice.

The blade in his hand pierced through Kujavina's one-handed sword in an instant, as if the blade had been cut in two, yet an invisible force connected them.

The sword slashed towards Kujavina's neck, the tip of the blade drawing a dark purple light through the air, as if space itself had been expanded.

But just as the masked man's sword reached Kujavina's neck, it suddenly stopped, not moving an inch.

In contrast, Kujavina's sword was now brimming with water elemental energy, and its stance had shifted from defensive to being pressed against the masked man's neck.

The arm that gripped the one-handed sword also blocked the masked man's sword-wielding hand.

Furthermore, a circular water elemental afterimage was left along the path from the point where the sword blade had struck the masked man's neck to the other side of his neck.

At that moment, time seemed to stand still, and the people around them hadn't seen Kujavina make any move whatsoever.

Immediately afterwards, Chehui and the two Fools beside her saw water elementals suddenly emerge from around the masked man's neck, and then the masked man's head moved slightly.

Then, just like a watermelon neatly sliced ​​in half, it fell directly to the ground. Meanwhile, Qiuhe was sitting in an unfamiliar room on the other side.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes wide and took a deep breath, then gasped for air, his face covered in sweat. "Good, good, so fast!"

Akikawa couldn't believe what the body he had just controlled had witnessed. He had attempted to assassinate and test Kugavina's strength while helping Kirie.

Akikawa, who had focused his attention to the extreme, failed to detect any movement in Kujavina's arm; in an instant, the head of that body lost consciousness.

.................................................. ...............

"Take off his mask," Kujavina's voice rang out, and the foolish emissaries beside her gradually came to their senses.

He then picked up the head from the ground and removed the mask from its face, revealing a completely unfamiliar face underneath.

Kujavina was also somewhat puzzled. "Have you seen this face before?" Chee and the two Fools around her all said they hadn't.

Kujavina was even more confused. After all, she had never seen this face before, but this person had just mentioned some blood debt. If he was an enemy of the Fatui...

He should know that, but looking at the child in front of him, who appeared to be only thirteen or fourteen years old, he wondered, "Could he be a descendant of some enemy?"

Kujavina thought about it and it made sense; it was normal for the Fools to kill someone and then have that person's descendants seek revenge.

"Just throw them out and dispose of them," Kujavina said. The two Fatui members, one carrying the head and the other the body, walked out.

Kujavina sat back down in her chair, and Chehui, who was standing beside her, spoke up, "I'm sorry, Mother. Everything went smoothly when we brought him back."

"I thought he was nothing special, and I'm sorry for causing you trouble," Kujavina said, putting on her fake smile again. "My dear child, don't blame yourself."

The child who completes the task deserves praise; "You did a great job!" At this, the room fell silent. "Then, Mother... I..."

Kujavina was silent for a few seconds, then smiled and said, "Go back, sweetie, go find your friends. They're probably getting really anxious waiting for you."

After thanking Kudjavina, Chehui left the room, while Kudjavina's smile remained, as she stared at the flowerpot in front of her.

"Time really flies,"

Meanwhile, Qiuhe, on the other side, was also sitting on the beach, arms wrapped around his knees, watching the seagulls, his heart filled with mixed emotions, his eyes seemingly brimming with unspoken thoughts.

"Only in our first battle did I realize that even with that power, there's still an unreachable galaxy between us."

Akikawa was still brooding over his test of Kugavina; he suspected that Kugavina's fighting power in the CG animation had been weakened.

But he never imagined he could become this powerful. At that time, Qiuhe had already pushed his ability to perceive the intertwined voids to its limit, and the energy within his body had reached its peak.

He fought her with the sole intention of killing her, but unexpectedly, he didn't even see her attack before his head was chopped off.

At this moment, Qiuhe couldn't even imagine what would have happened if he had used his own body, nor did he know how much more he needed to improve to surpass Kujavina.

Even if I improve further in the future, how can I know if I am stronger than or have absolute confidence in killing Kujavina?

Just as Qiuhe was feeling extremely down, Funina threw a seashell at his head. Qiuhe scratched his hair and realized it was a seashell.

Then he looked at Funina beside him, who pouted and said, "Really, Qiuhe, you said you'd come to the beach with me."

"So what are you doing sitting there daydreaming?" Qiuhe paused for a few seconds before forcing a smile and saying, "Nothing, just thinking about some things."

As they spoke, Qiuhe turned to look at the other side of the sea, and seeing this, Funina, carrying a large pile of glittering seashells, sat down next to Qiuhe.

"Ever since you came back from running errands, you seem a bit down. Did something happen?"

Qiuhe laughed and said, "It's really nothing, maybe she's just homesick." Funingna, somewhat puzzled, asked:

"You miss home? Then why don't you go back?" Qiuhe was speechless when she heard the word "home." "Do I... still have a home?" Qiuhe had never considered it.

After rescuing Clementine and the others, what should one do next? Go home? But do they even have a home? Earth? If only they had a perfect home...

Then why did you jump off a building in your past life? And if you really have extraordinary abilities and can return to Earth, would it still be meaningful to go back?

Is there anyone over there who needs me? Is there a place for me to stay? Qiuhe simply can't understand, amidst these anxious plans for the future...

Only the sound of the sea breeze, the crashing waves, and the cries of seagulls, along with the sound of Funina holding Qiuhe's hand.

"Alright, if it's something that makes you unhappy, let's not think about it. It's almost noon, let's go again. Let's stroll around Fontainebleau, and then go eat. I'm starving."

Hearing Funina say that it was almost noon, Qiuhe also looked up at the sky and noticed that the sun would soon be at its zenith.

Qiuhe looked at the sky, seemingly lost in thought.
