Chapter 293 Navigette
Shiraki was not intimidated by Funina's pretentious attitude.
He glanced at Funina, then looked past her and at the tall figure who had just walked out of the Mo Mang Palace.
The newcomer had a serious expression and was dressed in a blue and black outfit, with two blue "ribbons" floating on his forehead.
Seeing Violet walking towards him, Shiraki released his aura.
The aura contained two important pieces of information: "ancient" and "dragon race".
Sensing the aura emanating from Shiraki, a moment of confusion flashed across Vilette's face.
Then his expression suddenly turned serious, and he quickly walked towards the direction where Shiramu was.
Funina also heard footsteps behind her.
She turned her head and was met with Villette's serious face.
Overjoyed, she quickly reached out her hand to Navelette.
“Navilette, I…”
But before Funina could finish speaking, Vilette ignored her completely, walked past her, and stood in front of Shiraki.
"Hello."
Navelette stopped in front of Shiraki, then bowed slightly and greeted him.
This greeting has nothing to do with stance or strength; it is simply out of respect from a junior to an elder.
"Ah hello."
Shiraki responded to Vilette.
Then, Navelette turned her gaze to Funina and asked:
"Ms. Funina, is there anything you want to say to me?"
Still reeling from Vilette's attitude towards Shiraki, Funina instinctively spoke after being called upon by Vilette:
“Navilet, he bullied me, and I want you to help me teach him a lesson.”
Upon hearing this, Navelette glanced at Funina, and then at Shiraki beside him.
He could sense a kind of benevolence and kindness emanating from Bai Mu, a quality unique to elders.
This aura could fulfill all of Navelette's fantasies about her elders.
Navelette couldn't believe that such an elder would bully a child.
Seeing that Vilette remained silent, the simple-minded Funina didn't even consider why Vilette had been so respectful to Bai Mu just now.
She pointed directly at Shiraki's nose and said:
"Navilet, that guy Bai Mu bullied me, he even tried to hit me with a brick."
Navelette frowned.
“Ms. Funina, please show some respect to my elders.”
Funina:?
Suddenly, Funina's eyes widened, and she pointed at Shiraki in disbelief.
"What did you just say? This guy is your elder?"
"It made you laugh."
Navelette lowered her head in embarrassment.
Meeting his clan elders for the first time in his life, he didn't know what to say. Coupled with Funina's unexpected actions, Navelette, who was unfamiliar with social etiquette, was at a loss for how to handle the situation.
Fortunately, Bai Mu didn't seem to mind. He patted Vilette on the shoulder in an old-fashioned manner and spoke in a tone befitting an elder:
"It's alright, I quite like this little girl's personality."
"Yes, I'm glad you like it."
Navelette nodded.
Since Bai Mu said everything was fine, he stopped worrying.
Seeing this, Funina stood frozen in place.
What did she just see?
She was surprised to see Navelette, who was usually kept at arm's length, being patted on the shoulder.
Not only that, but Villette didn't even show the slightest resistance during the whole process.
“Navilet, White...is he really your elder?”
Considering Navelette's attitude towards Shiraki, no matter how unwilling Funina is to believe it, the facts cannot be changed.
"Ah."
Navelette nodded slightly.
"The bloodline connection and the ancient aura emanating from the elders cannot be wrong."
At this point, Vilette paused for a moment.
Then, his tone took on a newfound respect.
"Not only that, this elder is also revered by countless people, a reverence that comes from the bottom of their hearts."
From the aura emanating from Bai Mu, Navelette could sense the profound reverence that Bai Mu's followers held for him.
"Then...doesn't that mean he's also a god?"
"How is that possible? What kind of gods fight with bricks?"
This time, Funina reacted quickly, immediately deducing the identity of the White Wood God from Navelette's words.
But she found it very unbelievable.
Because, apart from herself, Funina had never seen a god who was so unlike a god.
Shiraki could only shrug helplessly at this.
He had considered holding a knife to Furness's neck, but if he did, the guns of the guards around him wouldn't be for patrolling anymore.
Although Shiraki wasn't afraid of those guns, his trip was about to come to an end.
“Furina, you must not be rude. There must be a deeper meaning behind your elder’s actions.”
Navelette frowned as well.
Although he didn't understand why Bai Mu used bricks to fight, Bai Mu, as an elder, had much more experience than him, and there must be a deeper meaning behind his elder's actions.
Bai Mu had no idea what Navelette was thinking. When he saw Navelette speak up for him, he was about to press his advantage and exchange a few words with Funina, but the Great Tree King pinched him.
“Furina, you don’t need to worry about his identity. Let’s talk to this Supreme Judge about the purpose of our visit first.”
Reminded by the Great Tree King, Funina also remembered the important matter at hand.
She told Navigette about going to the Opiclie Opera House, to which Navigette first nodded, then looked at Shiraki with a puzzled expression.
"Can't you fly?"
Shiraki's lips twitched.
Shiraki was truly surprised that Vilette, with that serious face, would ask such a question.
However, upon closer examination, it's also true that as the highest judge of Fontaine, Navelette rarely engages in equal communication with anyone except Frynn. Over time, Navelette's emotional intelligence cannot develop.
It was only natural that he asked Bai Mu that question.
"You go ahead and get busy. I'll have Funina let you know when you leave."
Bai Mu didn't know how to answer the question. He could only wave to Vilet, bid her a simple farewell, and then leave with the Great Tree King.
Funina followed closely behind Shiramu.
Compared to the complicated political affairs in Navelette, Shiraki's place is much more interesting.
...
"You'll need to be more careful with your words from now on."
"Although that little dragon respects you, it's because he's rather naive, and you're the first elder he's ever met, plus the aura you exude gives him a sense of goodwill."
"But if you reveal your true nature in front of him, uh..."
"Although he will still respect you, it will eventually hurt the child's feelings."
