But regarding Paimon alone...

Although he wasn't particularly sensitive to the fact that this little guy, who had basically mastered all abilities, was full, he didn't mind lending a hand to his former travel companion, even though they weren't in contact anymore.

The strings that mocked fate have been severed; she needs no guidance. She just needs to be herself and make choices that she will not regret.

"I hope you have a pleasant journey ahead."

At the entrance to Petersburg, in front of the elevator platform overlooking Fontainebleau, he looked at Ying with Paimon and said this.

"And in the meantime, I'll help you deal with some of the obstacles."

"...What obstacle?"

Paimon found it strange, but she soon noticed something else, looking around with some surprise:

"What happened? Why did it suddenly get dark?"

It should be daytime now, but for some reason, the sky is frighteningly gloomy.

"I have a feeling... something bad is coming." Funina shrank her neck, looked at the ominous gloomy sky, and silently protected Jiang Qiao in front of her.

On the distant island of Irie, Navilette gazed at the sky outside her window, a solemn expression on her face.

"coming soon!"

"It looks like a nail, a really big nail!" With the help of her vision device, the fairy Ellie was able to see what the thing containing such immense power was.

"...The Nail of Frost".

The Tree King was more familiar with this—after all, the original Sumeru Desert region was originally a lush rainforest, but after a celestial nail fell, it turned into a barren land.

Although these things are essentially designed to prevent the abyss from seeping in, the disasters they cause can indeed be called a form of 'punishment'.

After all, following that great war, there is a record of Heaven reshuffling human civilization due to its dissatisfaction with humanity's violation of taboos.

"It's Sky Island."

Now that even the Frostfire Nail has appeared, it seems there's no need to guess whose arm it is anymore.

Of course, Jiang Qiao was not surprised by this.

After all—as an Invader, his own reckless actions without a guiding mechanism like 'Paimon' have likely already offended the natural order. First, he used the Heart of God, crucial for establishing order, to block the abyss; then, he severed the Great Tree of Compassion from the World Tree; and now, he has even disrupted the 'thread' that controls another Invader. This will undoubtedly lead Teyvat's fate in a completely unpredictable direction.

This is the kind of situation that is most unacceptable to the natural order.

So—it's time to punish this guy who's just as reckless as the Second Advent!

"We have to stop it. If this thing lands, Fontaine will be affected!" Fukaros said anxiously.

As a deity, she knew very well what the consequences would be if such a thing fell into Fontaine's hands—it would be a crisis no less severe than the one prophesied by Fontaine.

"It's alright, leave it to me."

"It just so happens that this body has already been adjusted."

Adjusting your body to the most comfortable, convenient, and suitable shape is an important secret to maximizing your body's full potential.

The blue-and-white-haired girl raised her head, revealing her fair neck, and looked up at the celestial nail that would bring disaster, a faint smile appearing on her lips.

The gown that belonged to Fryna was removed once more, and the divine garment covering her beautiful body stunned the brave Miss Fryna—this dress... wait, isn't this Fryna's dress?!

When Fu Ningna saw Jiang Qiao in her 'Fukaros' state, she was completely dumbfounded.

How did Fukalos's clothes end up on this guy?

...Could it be?! This guy is actually the real Fucarus, and everything before was just a joke?

Although it seemed impossible, seeing 'Fukaros' whose posture and appearance were exactly the same as when she first met him five hundred years ago, Funina couldn't help but have such an absurd and bold idea.

However, [Fukaros] doesn't seem to look exactly the same as before.

Based on Fukaros's divine armor, this completely revamped [Furina] has many more... light dragon scales and patterns, which look extremely strange from a human perspective. However, those seemingly ugly scales, under the asymmetrical aesthetic, make this barren body more beautiful than its original state.

Fu Ningna was stunned.

So beautiful....

Damn it, why do I feel like Jiang Qiao is prettier than me?!

Feeling somewhat humiliated and angry, Miss Funina puffed out her cheeks.

However, at this moment, 'Fukaros' only felt inner peace.

The 'Heart of the Fetal Sea' belonging to Aegolia has been completely integrated into this body—[Frinna] is no longer the original 'pure water spirit body'. As a functional replacement device modeled after the Water Dragon King, [Aegolia] is less a demon god and more like a 'dragon' in essence. In fact, it can be said that she is more like a dragon king than Navelette, who did not obtain the complete power of the ancient dragon.

The current 'Fukaros' has inherited these qualities, completing its transformation from a pure water spirit to a 'dragon'.

The power of the gestational sea within the planet was readily available at this moment, and the power that filled her entire body made 'Fukaros,' whose will had reached a state of unity, feel only joy.

Meanwhile, after using Jiang Qiao as a fusion material, Fukaros and Egolia, the two water goddesses, were able to gain access to the former's noble 'status', thus creating the current trinity 'Descendant Funina'.

Abbreviation: Super Fou.

The only slightly awkward thing is that, apart from the body being that of Funina, this Super Fou has absolutely no relation to the real Miss Funina if we disregard the fact that it is essentially the same person as Funina, Fukaros.

Even the body that Funina had used for five hundred years had changed into a shape that Funina didn't recognize... Well, that's not a big problem.

A slender, pale index finger gently tapped in the air.

The Fontaine region was already agitated by the power of the Heavenly Nail, with towering waves and even the rising sea level causing the tidal waters to stagnate—making Navelette, who was about to make a move, somewhat stunned.

He instinctively wanted to use his ancient dragon powers to fight for control of the water, but the result...

"..."

It felt like a three-year-old trying to have a tug-of-war with an older sister. Mr. Water Dragon was having some existential doubts.

No, is this "Gu Long's Power" a fake? How come I can't even seize control from others?! Give me some more power! Gu Long's Power!

It's obvious that this is futile—for Super Fou.

Although the water authority obtained from Ergolia is lower than the complete ancient dragon authority, that is in relation to Ergolia.

For Jiang, who is exceptionally skilled at using other people's bodies and strength, this weak authority, enhanced by Jiang Qiao, cannot be calculated simply by adding one to two.

Besides—anything that has passed through my hands, Jiang, always deserves a second pick.

Of course, it can't be called stealing; at most, when he obtained the power of the ancient dragon, he just glanced at the underlying structure out of curiosity and recorded it in this body.

It is the authority of the water element belonging to Teyvat, plus the 'fluid manipulation' that manipulates fluids from a physical level.

The turmoil in Fontainebleau gradually subsided.

The falling sky nails also stopped, unable to advance an inch.

"Buzzing—"

An inexplicable force emanated from the Heavenly Nail, and ominous dark yellow cubes appeared around it, spreading towards the blue-and-white-haired girl.

But the latter merely glanced at it and smiled.

The fair hand, with its dragon scale pattern, gently clenched—the 'imaginary block,' which was not unfamiliar to her and could even be considered her specialty, disintegrated at a speed visible to the naked eye.

With a rip, a massive, imaginary pocket appeared and immediately trapped the enormous Frost Nail.

Like a family planning device, the 'imaginary pocket' on the Heavenly Nail directly 'ate' this huge Heavenly Nail.

On Sky Island, the white-haired woman, who had witnessed the entire encounter and briefly clashed with the white-haired woman, revealed a hint of annoyance and shock in her golden eyes.

Then he sighed... and chickened out.

She had originally intended to try and eliminate this reckless heretic and get everything back on track, but unexpectedly... this idea was too difficult to handle, and she had no choice.

Given the current situation, dealing with this guy would be tantamount to starting a major war, but unfortunately, with Sky Island severely damaged and himself unable to spare any resources, this is impossible.

Moreover, even if I were to extricate myself, I might not be able to deal with this guy, since this heretic can use the same power as me, and even has a stronger control over it.

This also means that if I run over there, I'll just be throwing my life away.

So... we can only leave it for now.

Everything depends on her.

The gloom in the sky gradually dissipated, and Fontaine returned to its clear and sunny state.

The blue-and-white-haired girl curled her lips as she sensed the dissipation of the locking aura:

“That’s it…”

He thought this guy would come in person.

That way, you can directly stage a live capture of the maintainer—don't ask why, just say it's your profession, a professional pufferfish catcher.

"It seems Sky Island is also struggling to take care of itself." Distracted, the Tree King couldn't help but sigh.

"What are you going to do with this sky nail?"

Behind her fair five fingers, the enormous Tai Nail sealed within the Imaginary Number Block caught her attention.

"Let the people at the Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Educational Sciences work on it together."

Although agar nails cause severe environmental damage, it would be incorrect to say that they are purely harmful.

Sealing off the abyss and possessing power surpassing elemental forces, the Frostfire Nail is a very good 'treasure' as an extremely powerful power source.

Jiang Qiao originally planned to pick up a few stalks when she went out this time.

However, the few remaining Teyvats all had their own significance, and some were quite far away, so they were abandoned.
