Genshin Impact : Eerie Teyvat-Chapter 99: Ch : Two contradictory facts

Su Yuan had never believed in things like fate—especially in Teyvat, where even the starry sky was a lie, and everyone's destiny ran along predetermined tracks...

But he himself was the unpredictable anomaly from beyond, the one who could shatter the chains of fate.

Still, before moving forward, Su Yuan wanted to thoroughly confirm one thing—

Among the four questions asked last time, which one was actually false?

"Everyone..." Su Yuan looked around at the others and spoke up, "This time, let me be the one to take part in Charlotte's interview."

And so, Su Yuan sat down with the others and discussed, drafting a new list of questions.

Afterward, Su Yuan sat face to face with Charlotte, ready to begin the interview.

"Alright, Mr. Su Yuan, thank you for agreeing to this interview."

As soon as the interview segment began, Charlotte quickly shifted into her professional mode.

"Then, let's begin with the first question: Mr. Su Yuan, do you believe that a insect—or a certain kind of lifeform—can become the new Hydro Archon?"

"I believe it's definitely possible."

Su Yuan replied calmly, then looked toward Charlotte.

If what the message in his palm had said was correct, and this answer was false, then Charlotte should now already be in the midst of eerie transformation—just still maintaining her disguise...

In the next moment, Su Yuan did something no one could have anticipated—he took out the small knife he always carried with him and thrust it directly toward Charlotte's eye!

Everyone was stunned, completely unable to understand what Su Yuan was doing.

"Ah!!" Charlotte, caught off guard by the sudden blade, let out a scream and immediately shut her eyes.

Su Yuan's hand, holding the knife, halted right in front of Charlotte's face—the tip of the blade was less than five centimeters away from her eye...

Su Yuan looked at the scene with some confusion.

If the question he had just asked was indeed false, and Charlotte had already fallen under the control of the Eerie, then when faced with a life-threatening situation, wouldn't she have already revealed her true nature and fought back?

Could it be that Charlotte hadn't been taken over by the Eerie yet?

Or... was she still maintaining her disguise even in a situation like this?

"Ahem..." Su Yuan coughed lightly, withdrew the knife, and returned to his seat.

"Apologies, Charlotte. That was just a little test—I wanted to see if you had been possessed by the Eerie..."

"Charlotte, please don't take it to heart. Let's continue with the next question."

To perform this test, Su Yuan had deliberately not told everyone that Charlotte would reveal her Eerie state after hearing two untrue statements.

Because Eerie entities retain the original host's memories, this was the only way he could get the most genuine answer—without Charlotte's conscious interference.

"Uh... alright... then, Mr. Su Yuan, the next question..."

"Do you believe that Miss Focalors can resolve the prophecy crisis and save Fontaine without sacrificing herself?"

"I believe..."

"She can..."

Su Yuan had already braced himself for Charlotte to enter an Eerie state.

Because now, two false answers had already been given back-to-back—Charlotte should no longer be able to keep her disguise or suppress her transformation into an Eerie!

But to Su Yuan's surprise, Charlotte didn't show any signs of becoming Eerie at all?

Huh? What's going on? Weren't there already two false answers?

In the next second, Su Yuan quickly pulled out his small knife again and jabbed it toward Charlotte's face!

But this time, Charlotte seemed to have anticipated it.

She tilted her head slightly, easily dodging it...

"Mr. Su Yuan, please don't keep doing that... I'm really scared..."

"Charlotte" looked at Su Yuan with a faint smile.

Su Yuan instantly realized something was terribly wrong—Charlotte had already been taken over by the Eerie, but she was still pretending!

"...Alright, next question..."

However, the current "Charlotte" still didn't seem willing to expose herself and continued the interview... freewebnøvel.coɱ

But that was exactly what Su Yuan had hoped for...

Charlotte's behavior now confirmed that the first question was actually true!

A insect—truly could become the new Hydro Archon!

If, among the four questions, the one about a insect becoming the Hydro Archon was true, then which one was false?

"Is 'The Doctor' Dottore still alive?"

"Charlotte" asked calmly.

"He is," Su Yuan replied.

"Alright, next question..."

"Charlotte" nodded.

"Will Fontaine's prophesied disaster occur within the next seven days?"

"It will," Su Yuan nodded.

"Okay, and now, the final question on the list..."

"Can Lord Neuvillette reclaim his Sovereign authority and absolve the people of Fontaine of their sins?"

Through process of elimination, all the previous questions had already been asked—and yet "Charlotte" still hadn't fully revealed her Eerie nature...

Which meant, those questions were all true.

If Su Yuan now answered "Yes," and Charlotte dropped the act, it would prove Neuvillette could not accomplish those things.

But in truth, there was no need to push that far.

Su Yuan could already be sure of the answer to this question...

As long as he answered "No," and "Charlotte" continued to pretend, it would indirectly confirm that Neuvillette truly couldn't do those things...

"My answer is..."

Su Yuan swallowed hard and looked at "Charlotte"...

"No."

"Charlotte" narrowed her eyes slightly, gazing at Su Yuan—but she did not drop her disguise.

Even though he had mentally prepared himself, Su Yuan was still completely shaken by what he saw...

So now, based on Charlotte's rules, two facts could be confirmed:

Focalors cannot resolve the prophesied crisis and save Fontaine without sacrificing herself...

Neuvillette cannot reclaim his Sovereign authority to absolve the people of Fontaine of their sins...

Although Su Yuan didn't believe in Teyvat's so-called "destiny," no matter how he looked at it—this all felt utterly despairing...

But the two seemingly confirmed truths... contradicted each other.

If Focalors can save Fontaine at the cost of her life, but Neuvillette is not the one who can carry it out...

Then who exactly is supposed to save Fontaine?

"Mr. Su Yuan, is there any other question you'd like me to ask in the interview?"

Suddenly, "Charlotte" spoke up again.

"If not, then I'll start asking whatever I want, totally freeform~"

"For example... Mr. Su Yuan, are you afraid of dying?"

But in the next moment, with a loud boom, a massive iron cage dropped from the ceiling—trapping "Charlotte" inside.

Everyone could see it clearly now—Charlotte had been taken over by the Eerie...

Staring at herself now enclosed in the huge cage, "Charlotte" seethed with rage.

Her face began to distort, flush with a crimson hue, and an eerie energy started to emanate from her body...

Her head twisted a full 270 degrees as she glared at everyone viciously and snarled:

"What do you think you're doing? Are you trying to interfere with my interview?!"
