"Before Lady Furina could react, the people beside her also began to lose control of their emotions and roar at her..."
"Then, stirred up by those people, everyone in the opera house grew agitated. The situation spiraled out of control for a time, and they all began blaming the Hydro Archon!"
Paimon: "So it really did come to this. People still turned their eyes toward Furina. After living in fear of the prophecy for so long, they finally had an outlet for their frustration. Naturally, this was bound to happen!"
Isadora: "You're right. As people from the Palais Mermonia, of course we understand that we can't pin all the blame on the Hydro Archon and make her the scapegoat. After all, this prophecy involves far too much. People have always taken their reliance on the gods for granted, and when they lose their sense of security, the gods are always the first ones they blame!"
Paimon: "Then what happened? How was Furina?"
Isadora shook her head. "Lady Furina was all right. When she saw that the situation was about to get completely out of control and that the people wouldn't respond to anything she said, she said the praise wasn't very interesting and left first!"
"But because the angry crowd had drawn all the attention of the Marechaussee Phantom at the time, they didn't get a chance to see which way Lady Furina went! By the time they finally calmed the people down, they had no idea where she'd gone!"
Paimon: "So you can't find Furina now?"
Isadora: "That's right. Almost everyone in the Marechaussee Phantom has been sent out to find her, but there haven't been any reports back!"
"But I still think this is a minor matter. This response seems a little excessive. Lady Furina is the God of Hydro, after all. Even if those angry residents found her, what could they possibly do?"
Lumine nodded. "I think I understand!"
Isadora: "Good. Monsieur Neuvillette sent me here just to tell you all this. I hope I explained it clearly enough. There's nothing else..."
Paimon: "You explained it very clearly. Sorry for the trouble of coming all this way. We'll help too!"
Isadora: "That's good. I still have things to do, so I'll be leaving now. Thank you both for your help. Goodbye!"
[Hu Tao: See? What did I tell you? Life is hitting you with its ultimate!]
[Nilou: These people are awful. Furina was clearly making an effort too. Even if they didn't know that, they shouldn't act like this! Doesn't being the Hydro Archon mean she has other things to deal with too?]
[Charlotte: As a journalist, I can deeply appreciate how frightening public opinion is. The emotions of the masses are terrifying. Once they're stirred up, the consequences are unimaginable, so I always remind myself to uphold my professional ethics!]
[Paimon: Charlotte really is a great journalist!]
[Yoimiya: The Hydro Archon is just too gentle. If something like this happened here, I can't imagine what the Shogun would do!]
[Kujou Sara: Of course. Everlasting glory, eternal Narukami!]
[Sayu: Can I ask if any of you have a Statue of Her Excellency, the Almighty Narukami Ogosho, God of Thunder? I really want one!]
[Keqing: Although I don't think there's any need to put too much faith in gods, even I think this went too far. This isn't Furina's fault at all!]
[Ganyu: This is the first time I've heard Keqing say something like that. They really can't pin all the blame on Furina!]
[Xingqiu: The people of Fontaine in the video have been like a pile of dry grass lately. All it takes is a tiny spark to set them alight. Under these circumstances, they won't consider whether something is true at all!]
[Lisa: I think these people also know perfectly well that their actions are meaningless. It's just that they...]
[Yelan: I'm skeptical. This should be a premeditated operation, and the Traveler's and Paimon's attitudes in the video also leave me with no choice but to think more deeply about it!]
[Ningguang: I feel the same way. Let's keep watching!]
In the video.
As Isadora left.
Paimon's and Lumine's gazes met, and in an instant, they understood each other.
Paimon: "Destination: Poisson. Let's go! We don't have much time!"
Lumine: "I was thinking the same thing!"
Paimon: "Sure enough, Furina still chose to run away. Even with something like this happening today, he still chose to leave instead of facing it head-on!"
"But I'm sure you can tell too. Although Furina seems carefree on the surface, as if she doesn't care about anything, she's never been someone who truly doesn't care about the people!"
Paimon: "Last time, when Neuvillette argued with her in the Palais Mermonia, once she got a clear look at that list of the dead from Poisson, no matter what expression she wore, she couldn't hide her guilt and sadness!"
"And with what happened in Poisson today on top of that, she must be feeling awful right now!"
"So my guess is that the place Furina most wants to go right now is Poisson. Otherwise, I don't think she has anywhere else to go!"
"What do you think...? Even though they told me ages ago, I could still work out a few of these reasons myself. Not bad, right?"
Lumine: "Impressive, impressive. Having been a detective really did make a difference. Paimon is so clever!"
Paimon: "Hehe, then let's hurry up and go. We don't have much time!"
[Arataki Itto: Damn it, I actually got fooled. I didn't see that coming. I really didn't.]
[Hu Tao: So the plan was already underway at this point, huh? Amazing!]
[Kaeya: Indeed. A very clever move!]
[Lisa: It looks like these people of Fontaine were all being used as pawns. Everything was just part of your plan!]
[Yae Miko: Ah, it looks like I won't be able to learn from this plan. In Inazuma, I'm afraid even the first step would be impossible.]
[Ganyu: I just feel like this might not be very good. Even if it's to capture Furina, having the people say such hurtful things would still cause her quite a bit of distress, even if they told her afterward!]
[Nilou: I think so too. I hope they can explain everything properly to Furina afterward and try to keep her from suffering any psychological harm. After all, although Furina is a god and her body is difficult to injure, I think her heart is still very tender!]
[Lyney: Although I believe in the Hydro Archon, I think that whatever she's doing, she still needs to give the people a sense of security. At the very least, she should create the impression that she's busy, rather than spending every day like this. It really will make the people lose confidence in her.]
[Navia: I hope this plan targeting Lady Furina can get her to talk.]
