Nonomi looked at the screen in front of her, her mouth twitching slightly, then she let out a roar born from over twenty years of being single.
"What kind of Legendary Quest is this *expletive*? This is clearly for pairing up characters, isn't it?! Three pairs with strong CP vibes have already appeared. What's going on?!"
"Even though one of them was stillborn because of that beast Vasher, that doesn't stop people from creating fanworks!"
"Lauvik and Dirfi caring for each other's health is one thing, but what's with Yuto and the old Father helping their socially anxious Daughter integrate into society?!"
When people express their opinions, they subconsciously seek out their own kind.
Just as ordinary people subconsciously like comments they agree with in the comment section, streamers also have similar operations,
Specifically manifested as—watching bullet comments.
However, when Nonomi's gaze fell on the bullet comment display beside her... she didn't see comments that agreed with her, but rather some... troublemakers.
"Look, she's getting worked up again."
"Mic's blown, mic's blown! You're spitting into the mic, Ye Zhi. You don't seem like your microphone would break that quickly, do you?"
"Spitting into the mic? If it's broken, can you mail it to me so I can lick it?"
"Knowing Heaven is easy, defying Heaven is hard."
"Ye Zhi, now everyone knows you're single~"
"But... looking at it this way, he really is an old Father, just a bit of a devious one."
"So, Yuto is the type who's very serious about big matters, but quite relaxed in private?"
...
Watching the constantly refreshing bullet comments, Nonomi sighed faintly.
—She knew it would be like this.
She shouldn't have expected these troublemakers to give her timely feedback and agreement at a time like this.
Looking at those bullet comments, Nonomi sighed faintly, then continued:
"Everyone... can we talk about the game? We're just online acquaintances, and talking about being single or not is really crossing the line, okay?"
As the true owner of this live stream, Nonomi naturally knew how to quiet these troublemakers.
As long as she ignited a topic, they would fall into a somewhat empty state after intense discussion, and then...
And then there was no then.
Because once they fell into emptiness, they would spontaneously look for the next topic, and she only needed to add a hook during the process of igniting the previous topic, allowing them to follow the clues in their empty state.
Thinking of this, Nonomi nodded with satisfaction, then picked up the milk tea by the table and began her slacking-off time.
...
As time passed, after about two or three minutes of intense discussion, these troublemakers began to change topics, just as Nonomi had predicted.
"Uh... I'm still curious how Ye Zhi views this part of the plot. The more I watch, the more confused I get. What's the deal with these two Fontaine Operas?"
"Hmm, now that you mention it, that's true. Wasn't it supposed to be about The Prophecy? Why has it been revolving around The Daughter of Water?"
"Requesting Ye Zhi to interpret!"
Looking at the bullet comments gradually returning to the live stream's original theme, Nonomi nodded with satisfaction, then slowly sat up from her chair.
"Hmm? Do you think this plot is messy? I think it's quite good. It's probably a dual-narrative structure, with one obvious and one hidden, complementing each other."
As soon as she said this, the live stream, which had been somewhat quiet compared to the previous troublemaker carnival, instantly ignited.
After all, this was a live stream of a well-known plot expert, and most people came here... to hear her analysis of the plot.
"Huh? Dual lines? The investigation line is the hidden line, and the Fontaine Opera line is the obvious line, but there are two Fontaine Opera lines, one is The Prophecy, and the other is The Daughter of Water. How do you explain that?"
"Yeah... looking at it that way, shouldn't it be more than two lines?"
Nonomi smiled slightly at these two characteristic questions, then corrected them:
"If divided by events, it is indeed a three-line narrative, but if analyzed by character design... it's definitely a dual-line narrative."
"I often say that Legendary Quests are used to complete character designs and relationship networks, so when analyzing Legendary Quests, you can't just look at the events; you also have to look at the character designs."
Nonomi paused slightly, allowing these little idiots in the live stream to digest it a bit before continuing:
"Look, from the beginning of the Legendary Quest, hasn't Furina's true self begun to be revealed little by little?"
"Whether it's the understanding and gentle girl in Yuto's office at the very beginning, or the Fontaine Opera expert who can accurately hit the core of problems in Beryl Region and on the ship, these are all aspects of Furina's character."
"And what is the vehicle for describing the character's image? It's those two Fontaine Operas you just mentioned."
"I'll boldly guess that The Prophecy and The Daughter of Water are actually Fontaine Operas that simultaneously reflect the endings of both Furina and Focalors."
"The former represents Furina, and is the most superficial story: Furina lost her divine power in exchange for Fontaine's peace."
"The latter represents Focalors, something only we players can see from a God's perspective: Focalors sacrificed her life in exchange for the continuation of humanity."
"As for which one you say is most important... if you ask me, these two are actually equally important."
"One uses a story to make more people recognize Furina and give her the respect she deserves, while the other elaborates on Focalors' spiritual legacy."
At this point, Nonomi tilted her head and continued:
"Of course, it's also possible that this later quest is filler content meant to lay a big foreshadowing. No one can say for sure."
"After all, I think since the character Claude was given something akin to a unique model, he probably won't appear less in future event stories."
At this moment, Nonomi had not yet realized that in the near future, her words would come true, and Claude, shaped and foreshadowed through several Legendary Quests, would transform into a film and television magnate.
He not only became a patron of Palais Mermonia but also her, Nonomi's, second key point to success.
Thus, the title of Prophet was thoroughly established.
