Chapter 131 Watching the Show 2
"Scene 1, in front of the mirror, Fukaros."
......
Xia Xi exclaimed: "So this is why Fukaros pretended to be a god."
Conan touched his chin with one hand and thought: "The Fukaros in the mirror should be the real water god. No, to be more precise, it should be the part of the water god that is similar to divinity."
However, it turns out that this is the true character of Fucaros as a human being. He doesn't look arrogant at all, but rather seems a bit humble?
Just like an ordinary human being.
Xia Xi: "So, the Fukaros we met before should be the human part of the water god."
Alas, against human nature...
I don't know how she managed to hold on for so long with the human spirit. It's amazing that she managed to do something as a human that only gods can do.
Zhu Xing also said: "I really didn't expect that Fukalos would decide to put Fontaine's safety above her own without a second thought. When I was with her before, I really couldn't tell from her appearance that she was such a self-sacrificing person."
Conan: "But the Fukaros in the mirror didn't say when the show would end. He only said it would end in a grand, farce-like trial. Is this referring to the trial we conducted on Fukaros before?"
"It should be, the trial of the gods, how can this not be a wonderful farce. Moreover, after the trial, Fucaros's human identity was exposed, and her performance as the water god was indeed over." Zhu Xing said the last sentence with a complicated expression.
Before they could discuss for too long, the announcement sounded again:
"Act 2, inaugural speech, Fukaros."
......
Conan: "So, this is why Fukaros became what he is now?"
Moroboshi: "She is a god after all. Aren't gods usually strong, confident, and have a strong presence in our imagination? Her inaugural speech was indeed a bit too humble and polite. My father's speeches were stronger and more contagious than hers. It's normal for the audience to question her."
However, the latter part actually doesn’t quite fit in with his imagination of God. The performance is a bit exaggerated and the transition is a bit abrupt.
Zhu Xing thought about these words but didn't say them out loud. After all, this should be Fukaros' first time to play the role of a god in front of the public, so it's normal that he is not yet proficient.
Xia Xi crossed her arms and said with a little discontent: "Although that is what I said, when I think of the pressure Fukaros is under, I feel that what these audiences said is a bit too much. Besides, what's wrong with a humble and approachable god? What basis do these people have to question Fukaros based on this?"
Zhu Xing disagreed: "It's normal for gods to be strong. Powerful, strong, proud, elegant... Without these characteristics, they are not gods at all."
Xia Xi turned her head and looked at Zhu Xing: "Who said that? Who stipulated that gods must be like this? As the saying goes, "God loves the world." If a god cannot do this, he is not a god no matter how powerful he is. On the contrary, although Fukalos may not have the characteristics you mentioned, she can sacrifice herself for Fontaine, which shows that she is worthy of the title of God."
Moroboshi: "I admit that Fukaros is amazing, but she is only human after all, and there are things she can't do. And gods are supposed to be omnipotent, and she is not a god at all."
Xia Xi and Zhu Xing couldn't convince each other, so they turned to look at Conan and said, "Conan, what do you think? Whose opinion do you agree with?"
Conan: "..."
He really didn't expect that Xia Xi and Zhu Xing would quarrel over such a trivial matter.
But according to his thoughts, "Personally, I think gods should be stronger, but I think Sister Xia Xi is right. Fukalos is indeed worthy of the title of Fontaine Water God. Until the last moment, she was doing her best to protect Fontaine."
Conan felt complicated when he thought about the previous trial, when Fucaros was trying to prove that he was the water god until the cardinal gave the result.
Now I know why the other party pretended to be the God of Water. When I think back to the scene at that time, I always feel like they are the villains.
After hearing Conan's answer, Moroboshi looked at Conan and said nothing more.
At this time, the announcement sounded again:
"Act III, Opera House, Fukaros."
......
Zhu Xing: "I didn't expect Fukalos to be so busy every day. She looked unreliable at first, so I thought she didn't have much to do. She has been paying attention to the hydrological conditions in Fontaine. It seems that she really cares about the prophecy."
Conan: "Yes, the performance is from morning to night, and there is no slack for a moment. At most, you can relax before going to bed. The next day, you will definitely repeat the same process, over and over again, as if there is no end. If it goes on for a long time, ordinary people will not be able to bear it..."
As if to prove Conan's words, the following fourth and fifth scenes are in the same scene, but Fukaros' spirit is getting more and more exhausted day by day...
Everyone watched with complicated expressions, and then came the second act. It was still the same scene, the same daily routine. The difference was that Fukalos' spirit was obviously not as good as at the beginning. She seemed to be unable to hold on any longer.
After seeing this scene, everyone was silent for a while.
After a while, Zhu Xing spoke: "I admit that she is indeed amazing. She persisted in doing the same thing for more than 100,000 days without letting up. It is incredible that she did not collapse mentally."
Conan: "No, she may have been mentally exhausted a long time ago. Just like Fucaros just said, she may have reached her limit a long time ago, and now she is just numbly persisting."
Xia Xi: "She did this for her belief, the belief of saving Fontaine. Fukalos will persist no matter how painful it is."
Then, the final scene, the opera house, Fukaros, and...
As the lights came on, Fucaros suddenly appeared in the center of the stage. She danced gracefully on the stage of the opera house, as if she was performing her final farewell performance.
Conan, Zhu Xing and Xia Xi stopped discussing and focused on looking above the stage, admiring the last dance of Fukalos.
She really didn't let up until the very last moment, and wanted to protect the people of Fontaine until the very end...
Finally, as the music stopped, Fucaros spread his hands at his sides, squatted slightly and saluted, as if saying goodbye to Xia Xi and the others, and to everyone.
