Chapter 402

Neuvillette, what have you brought to Fontaine Court?!

However, after all, Furina had played the role of a god for five hundred years, so she quickly adjusted her mindset and rationality.

She immediately understood that regardless of the strength of her power, Eris's personality was inherently harmless. Moreover, Melusine was naturally kind and innocent; she had never seen a bad Melusine in hundreds of years. At most, it was just some strange aesthetic habits arising from racial characteristics.

'Wait, a super capable yet obedient assistant, wouldn't that work?'

Furina narrowed her eyes, her mind racing.

After a while, she flew in the air and said worriedly:

"Ah, Eris, do you know why I hired you as my assistant?"

"Isn't it because Eris needs to work, and Lady Furina needs an assistant?"

"Of course it's not that simple. As the Goddess of Justice, I saw through your power at first glance, and I brought you by my side to see if you could realize the importance of using your power cautiously... Now it seems that you haven't learned that at all."

Furina sighed, seemingly troubled.

Eris listened quietly to her charade, especially finding it amusing that Furina's beautiful eyes were now gleaming with cunning.

"Like me, as a god of immense power and one of the seven rulers of the mortal world, have you ever seen me use my divine power at will?"

"Never seen her. Eris thinks Lady Furina is much weaker than Eris."

"Cough cough cough! That proves I have better control over my power than you! Eris, you must know this is a land inhabited by humans, and most mortals are fragile. A being as powerful as you, if unable to perfectly restrain yourself and control your power, will bring immense disaster to the people. Eris, you don't want that, do you?"

"Eris doesn't want to."

Eris answered truthfully.

She really didn't want to.

As the mastermind behind the scenes, she intends to use dark methods to control Fontaine, not to destroy Fontaine.

Furina's eyes lit up, and she patted Eris on the shoulder, saying meaningfully:

"Then, from this day forward you must be aware that you must use your power with caution. As the god of Fontaine, I cannot allow you, who is still immature, to roam freely in Fontaine Court. From now on, in order to train your self-control and restraint, I require you to use your power only under my orders. You have no objections, do you?"

"Yes, Lady Furina."

Eris didn't care, and her face showed no sign of resistance as she complied.

Furina was immediately overjoyed and her spirits lifted.

'Hehe! As expected of the inexperienced Melusine, she was fooled so easily? Furina, you truly are a genius!'

Furina felt she had gained a trump card to protect the image of the Hydro Archon. Suddenly, as a master of arts and culture, she had a comprehensive plan on how to consolidate her divine power.

The feeling of surprise and excitement lasted until they arrived at the palace.

Eris casually remarked.

"We are back in the palace. There will be no attack. You don't need to be afraid anymore, Lady Furina."

"I'm not scared!!!"

Furina quickly retorted, very loudly.

Eris tilted his head slightly in confusion, looking at Furina with his calm, clear eyes that seemed to see through everything.

Furina's face flushed red, and her expression froze.

To retract my earlier statement, while Eris may seem safe, she is, in a sense, extremely dangerous to her!
