Chapter 197 Chef Lei Movie?
Remus listened to Sibyl's words and was silent for a moment: "What will happen if I refuse?"
"You have no way to refuse. This is already decided by fate." Sibyl answered seriously, "You are destined to become the god of Fontaine for a time."
Remus smiled bitterly: "Is fate already determined?"
He took a deep breath, and a thoughtful look flashed in his eyes: "Okay."

Around five o'clock the next morning, Guili Qixing had already gotten up and, with the help of the servants, arranged Qixing's gorgeous robes.
Today is the day for the Demon God to report on his work once every three years as stipulated by the Human King.
The four demon gods from Inazuma and Sumi will talk about the changes in their respective territories over the past three years in the Fengtian Palace.
This filled the hearts of the Seven Stars with pride and excitement.
For a long time, the demons have been high and mighty, and invincible in the hearts of humans. But now, four demons are bowing down to their human king, which undoubtedly breaks the impression that the demons are invincible in the hearts of humans, and also makes the image of the human king look incomparably great.
The sun gradually rose from the east, shining on Guili's most prosperous place, Guili City.
Outside the Human King's Palace, Guili Qixing and their subordinates had already lined up in order of their positions.
"Open the city gate!"
As the Qianyan Army guarding the gate of the Royal Palace gave a majestic shout, the 49-meter-high gate engraved with golden patterns trembled and slowly opened, allowing Qixing and his subordinates to enter one after another.
Go forward all the way and enter the Fengtian Hall.
Zhu Yuncheng, wearing a black and gold robe embroidered with patterns of the sun, moon, stars, unicorns and phoenixes, sat in the main seat, with Gan Yu standing beside him.
"Greetings to the Human King. Long live the Human King!"
The people below bowed to Zhu Yuncheng.
In such a solemn occasion, only the appearance of the emperor could make these people kneel down and kowtow, but when facing Zhu Yuncheng, they only needed to bow and salute.
"No need to be polite, please stand up." Zhu Yuncheng finished speaking. After everyone stood up, Ganyu stepped forward and said, "Since the war between demons and gods began, I, as the king of men, conquered Inazuma and Xumi and made those demons submit to me. The two lands then returned to my rule. Now it is appropriate to have Lei Yingying, Lei Dianzhen, Daci Tree King, and Flower God come to the palace to report on their duties."
"The Human King has ordered that Lei Dianying, Lei Dianzhen, Daci Tree King, and Flower God go to the palace to report on their duties!"
The Qianyan Army outside shouted, and the Qianyan Army farther away heard it and shouted the same thing.
Soon, four demon gods dressed in divine robes walked into the hall together.
Although Guili Qixing and his subordinates tried hard to maintain a serious expression and wanted to look at the four demon gods, their bodies' instinct to submit to the demon gods still made it difficult for them to keep their eyes on them.
The Great Compassionate Tree King and Thunder were in front, bowing slightly to Zhu Yuncheng.
"Inazuma, Raiden Shin."
"Sumeru, the Great Kind Tree King"
"Greetings to the Human King."
Zhu Yuncheng nodded slightly.
Ganyu said: "Please let the demon king report his duties!"
Lei Dianzhen spoke first: "It has been three years since we submitted to Guili. With Guili's assistance, the livelihood of our people has become better and better. We have 500,000 acres of fertile land, 6.5 million people, 6,000 officials, 500,000 soldiers, and this year's tax revenue is 9 million Mora..."
King Mahamati said later: "It has been three years since we submitted to Guili. With Guili's help, the livelihood of our people in Xumi has become better and better. We have five million acres of fertile land, a population of 40 million, and 70,000 officials, but no army. This year's tax revenue is 17 million molas."
When Tianquanxing heard these numbers, he couldn't help but compare them with Guili.
At present, Guili has a total of 60 million acres of fertile land, a population of more than 70 million, a total number of 3.21 million soldiers, and an annual tax revenue of more than 200 million Mora.
It can be said that even if Xumi and Inazuma were added together, they could not reach half of Guili.
As the two finished their reports, Zhu Yuncheng spoke: "I am very pleased to hear your reports. You have all worked hard to defend your territory, and I can rest assured. I hope you will continue to work hard and announce the decree."
Gan Yu took out a roll of cloth and unfolded it, saying in a loud voice: "The Human King has ordered that the demon gods of Inazuma and Xumi, who have made contributions to governance, will be granted the titles of Inazuma and Xumi, ranking below the Human King and being called Dukes!"
This is also the reward system that Zhu Yuncheng came up with not long ago, imitating the five noble titles of king, duke, marquis, earl and viscount in the previous life of Shenzhou.
The Thunder Sisters and the Great Compassion Tree King were themselves named the Lords of Inazuma and Xumi by Zhu Yuncheng, and now they are named Dukes, which further deepens the connection between the two places and Guili.
Immediately after the court meeting ended, someone compiled a document of what had happened at the meeting and sent the Qianyan Army to post it in conspicuous places where people gathered in various cities in Guili.
In just a few days, the news that the four demon gods came to Xumi to report on their work and were named dukes by the Human King spread to every street and alley in Guili.
"It is said that our Guili is already the most powerful country in Teyvat!"
In the Immortal Drunk Restaurant, a customer drank the wine in one gulp and said cheerfully, "Look, even the high and mighty Demon God has bowed down to our Human King, and those storytellers even said how powerful the Demon God is."
His partner was a little confused: "That's true, but the Demon God's surrender doesn't seem to have changed anything for us. Before the Demon God surrendered, we rested eight days a month and received a salary of 6,000 Mora. After the Demon God surrendered, we also rested eight days a month, and our salary didn't seem to increase."
"What are you talking about?" The customer said seriously, "Look at the barbecue we ordered just now, isn't it more delicious than before? That's because spices were added to it. In the past, spices were rare in Guili, and a small package cost several hundred Mora. But in Xumi, spices are not worth anything at all. A string of barbecued meat with spices is only five Mora. And there is also Inazuma's sake and ramen, clothes, etc. Don't you see anything at all?"
His friend immediately blushed: "I didn't think of that."
The customer smiled and said, "That's good to know. All this is thanks to the Human King. Let's have another cup of Inazuma's sake. This stuff won't make you drunk. It tastes very comfortable."
These two ordinary people were drinking, not knowing that there was a woman and a man at the table next to them who could hear everything clearly.
"It seems that in the hearts of the people of Guili, Yongle's status has far surpassed yours, the Emperor."
“That’s not a bad thing.”
These two people were Dijun and Guizhong who came here to have lunch.
Gui Zhong propped his chin with his hands and said, "Emperor, if this is the case, can you ask Yongle to stop holding those festivals in the future? The festivals cost a lot of money every year."
"If I do this, my master will be the first to beat me to death."
A teasing voice was heard, and it turned out to be Zhu Yuncheng, Liu Yun and Gan Yu coming over.
Liu Yun nodded slightly after hearing this: "Yongle is right. If he dares, I will never let him off."
"Okay, okay, Xianyun, don't get excited." Gui Zhong said with a smile, "Come and sit down, the food will probably be served soon."
When the two immortals were seated, they saw Lei Dianying, who was dressed as a cook, and the Kitchen God, coming over with delicious dishes.
Zhu Yuncheng was stunned when he saw this scene. He immediately stood up and said seriously: "Food is the most important thing. You let Baalzebu come here as a maid?"
