Chapter 807: Trial! Begins Now!
"When choosing a location, we searched almost every corner of Fontaine," Linnie said enthusiastically. "We wanted to find a place that was both concealed and convenient for operation, while also taking the magic show's effectiveness into consideration. After countless field investigations and evaluations, we finally settled on the location in Baisong Town."
"Building the Giant Magic Box was a monumental undertaking," Linnet added. "We recruited top-tier craftsmen and architects, utilizing cutting-edge technology and materials. Every detail was repeatedly tested and adjusted to ensure the box's safety and stability."
"Digging a passage and opening up a waterway are also fraught with difficulties," Linnie continued. "We need to dig a secret passage from Baisong Town to Yiliye Island without being discovered, while also ensuring the waterway remains open. This requires us to race against time and be prepared for various emergencies."
“Every step has been carefully planned and prepared, just to present this perfect performance.” Linnet concluded, her eyes full of pride in the team’s efforts.
After hearing Linny's words, Funina was struck by something and asked, "So, the earthquake felt inside the 'Giant Magic Box' was actually caused by the entire house being moved underground?"
She recalled the bumpy ride in the box. No wonder it bumped so frequently back then, but... fortunately, no disaster happened.
Violet felt the relief in Furninna's heart and sighed helplessly.
He thought to himself, God, is this foolish world really worth you going to this extent?
Without them, there wouldn't be so many sufferings and dangers in this world.
After hearing what Finina said, Paimon nodded vigorously, "That's right, it's not the result of another disaster."
Seeing this, Sora scratched his head awkwardly, "Excuse me."
Seeing this, Funina snorted coldly. "Hmph, then Violet and Clorinde don't need to tell us their own mission. Gather the audience temporarily and prepare the "stage" for it. The duel agent Clorinde will make all preparations for the duel. So that when I appear on the stage, I can immediately conduct an "irresistible judgment", right?" She looked directly at Violet and Clorinde with a hint of provocation in her eyes.
After hearing what Finina said, Villette looked at her indifferently, nodded calmly and said, "Indeed." There was no ripple in his eyes, as if everything was within his expectations.
After hearing this, Finina turned her gaze to Clorinde again, "Well, I admire your courage, Clorinde. Facing the duel with the god without flinching, you are worthy of being my most proud duel agent." There was a hint of admiration in her tone. Although she was in trouble at the moment, the pride of being a "god" remained undiminished.
After hearing Fernina's praise, Clorinde replied sincerely and heartfeltly, "Thank you." Her eyes were firm, and she did not show any pride or complacency because of Fernina's praise.
Then, Finina turned her gaze to Kong, "As for Kong, your task should be to keep talking to me after finding me, divert my attention, and prevent me from realizing your plan, until the end, when you confront me as the accuser." There was a trace of scrutiny in her eyes, trying to find the answer from Kong's expression.
After hearing what Fernina said, Sora shook his head. Fernina looked puzzled at this and asked, "Oh?"
Seeing this, Kong directly stated his mission, "My mission is... I hope to make you tell me what is going on and what your plan is before we arrive at the Tribunal." His eyes were firm as he looked straight into Funina's eyes.
After hearing this, Funina smiled bitterly and shook her head, "Haha, is that so? It seems I missed my last chance..."
After saying this, Finina's eyes dimmed slightly, as if she had accepted everything that had happened. She took a deep breath and pulled herself together. "Alright, it doesn't matter. Now that things have come to this, the 'Irresistible Trial' has begun. There's no reason not to let it sit for a long time, no reason not to see it through to the end!"
As Kong watched the scene unfold, he knew it was beyond redemption. He couldn't help but think, "Yes, the only thing left to do is judge the Water God." But he still wondered what Finina had intended to say to him before arriving at the Tribunal. If he had had more time, he would have known what Finina had meant. But... alas, it was too late.
At this moment, a man walked up to Sora and politely handed him a stack of papers. "Mr. Accuser, I have something here... a woman named Charlotte requested and has been granted permission to hand it over to you in court. She says it will help the trial."
Paimon's expression was instantly delighted. "Charlotte gave it to us? So she's here too, Charlotte!" She excitedly took the item and eagerly flipped through it. "Let me see, isn't this the 'exclusive interview' she gave us earlier? It was finished so quickly. Wait, could it be that Charlotte means this exclusive interview just compiles all the events we've experienced since arriving in Fontainebleau... When we present what we've seen, heard, or encountered as clues in court, this exclusive interview becomes a kind of 'clue book'!"
After listening to Paimon's words, Sora nodded, "It's indeed very practical."
Seeing this, Paimon handed the item to Sora and said, "Open it and check the contents first. It can also be used as a way to sort out your memories."
With that, the trial officially began. Sora and Funina also walked towards their respective positions, their steps steady and resolute, as if carrying a sense of mission. As both parties arrived at their respective positions, Villette spoke in a deep voice, "Both parties are in place, and the trial begins..."
But before he could finish, Funina interrupted him.
She looked at Sora and Paimon standing across from her and said loudly, "There's no need to repeat those tedious opening remarks. Villette, please fast-forward to the part where the charges are read out. As the person being judged, the protagonist today, I'm not sure what you're going to judge me on. Let me be clear, it's normal for mortals to be unable to understand the actions of gods, but this doesn't constitute grounds for convicting gods..."
Her voice was clear and loud, echoing throughout the courtroom.
