Ch 284: Yay! Less Work!
Time came to the next day.
Furcarus, guarded by several Sir Lancelots, was admiring flowers in the Court of Fontaine Garden.
Furina and several women got up early in the morning to go find Topa to record a song. She couldn’t wait to record her song and upload it online.
After a night of fermenting public opinion, Furina’s Weibo account had reached 10 million fans.
Furina became famous overnight, barely a slightly famous singer in the Honkai: Star Rail universe.
Furcarus turned to a knight.
“How is Neuvillette?”
The knight bowed slightly and replied.
“My Lord, Neuvillette has recovered and can now get out of bed.”
Furcarus heard this.
“Where is he? I’ll go see him.”
Furcarus thought that if Neuvillette was almost recovered, she would let Neuvillette go back to work.
There were mountains of files piled up in the office, which gave Furcarus a headache.
Especially recently, she was busy with immigration matters, which was incredibly troublesome.
Furcarus came to Neuvillette’s room.
Neuvillette was sitting by the window, holding a newspaper, with a bottle of mineral water from the train on the small table beside him.
Furcarus pushed open the door and entered.
“Neuvillette, how are you? Hey, it seems you’ve recovered well.”
Furcarus saw Neuvillette sitting by the window reading the newspaper, and her heart rejoiced. This way, she could get Neuvillette to help her.
Neuvillette looked at Furcarus; everything Furcarus was thinking was written all over her face.
Furcarus looked at herself excitedly; without thinking, she must want her to help her with government affairs.
Neuvillette said slowly.
“I’m still not quite okay. Right now, I can only get out of bed and walk a couple of steps. Asmodeus, as you know, she is very strong.”
Furcarus was a little unhappy after hearing this.
She was just about to get Neuvillette to go to work, but after he said this, it didn’t seem right to ask him again.
Furcarus pouted.
“Fine~ then you rest for now, I’ll go busy myself.”
After saying that, Furcarus turned to leave.
Neuvillette suddenly spoke at this time.
“If you trust me, leave the immigration list to me.”
Furcarus heard this.
“Really! That’s settled then! The list needs to be submitted tomorrow.”
Neuvillette nodded slightly.
“Don’t worry, there will be no delay.”
Furcarus, having received Neuvillette’s response, happily went to work.
Yesterday’s immigration matter had already spread throughout Fontaine.
Those old nobles started making trouble again; they tried their best to add their own people to the list.
They waged public opinion wars, wrote letters of recommendation, using every means possible.
To put it simply, they wanted their family members’ names to repeatedly appear before Furcarus’ eyes.
After Furcarus left, Neuvillette called his secretary.
“It’s a bother for you to run a trip, help me invite the Fatui Executive’s servant to come.”
Furcarus is kind-hearted; even if she knows these people are causing trouble, as long as they don’t violate the law, Furcarus won’t care.
Not only does Asmodeus not want the immigration plan to fail, but Neuvillette does not either.
It concerns the whole of Tivat and absolutely cannot go wrong.
Neuvillette planned to make a deal with the servant to suppress the arrogance of the old nobles.
At the same time.
In Melopetersburg.
Several family heirs of old nobles had obtained positions in Melopetersburg yesterday through their family connections.
These positions were neither big nor small, each commanding some prison guards.
Several family heirs gathered together.
“Are you all ready?”
“Don’t worry, I’ve already greeted the prisoners on my side. They will riot tonight, and we will suppress them to gain merit.”
“Check again; there can be no omissions. Also, keep those prisoners tight-lipped; don’t let the word leak out.”
“No problem, it’s just that they want more money.”
“Give them money, what we need is merit, allowing us to get on the list, understand?”
“Understood!”
“Understood!”
Melsen Caesar nodded in satisfaction to his other companions.
“Disperse, 8 pm, start the riot on time!”
Melsen Caesar is a member of the Caesar Clan, an old noble family that existed from the beginning of Fontaine.
This time, he was arranged by his family to come to Melopetersburg to earn merit.
The family planned to orchestrate a riot in Melopetersburg, and then have several family heirs lead the prison guards to suppress it.
Staging a play to gain merit.
As long as they suppress the prisoners, Melsen and several other family heirs’ names will appear in the battle report presented to the Hydro Archon.
With this merit, these family heirs will most likely be included in the list.
Melsen separated from his companions. When he just returned to his room, a sudden black air rushed towards Melsen and burrowed into his body.
Melsen clutched his chest, looking like he was having a seizure, and fell to the ground.
After a while, Melsen stood up; a black gleam flashed in his pupils, revealing a sinister smile.
“Riot? I like it! Asmodeus! You destroyed my Abyss Order; I will destroy your country!”
Melsen walked towards the outdoors, looked around, confirmed no one was there, and then entered a secret passage.
On Neuvillette’s side, he had finished talking with the servant.
The servant accepted Neuvillette’s commission; she had long since disliked those old nobles.
If it weren’t for the lack of a reason, she would have done it long ago.
Neuvillette continued.
“Then, next is the reward, what do you want?”
The servant looked at Neuvillette.
“I want to ask you for a favor. Many of the children under me are from Fontaine; I want them to return to Fontaine.”
Neuvillette agreed immediately.
“Okay, they are people of Fontaine, returning is only right. I will have people arrange work for them and the like.”
The servant heard this and beckoned to Linni and Linnett behind her.
“Linni, Linnett, you two are returning to Fontaine, this is your hometown.”
Linni and Linnett shook their heads in refusal.
“Father, we want to follow you.”
The servant said calmly.
“Linni, Linnett, be obedient.”
Linni and Linnett still wanted to follow the servant.
The servant saw this.
“Linni, Linnett, you are still young; you don’t need to participate in cruel struggles.
It was necessary for Her Imperial Majesty before, but now Her Imperial Majesty has disbanded the Fatui.
Linni, Linnett, take care of your younger siblings; they are still young. Do you still want them to live in dire straits?”
Linni and Linnett, even though reluctant, could only agree.
“We understand, Father.”
