Chapter 343: Second Battle between Tartaglia and Sora
After dinner, Sora slowly asked, "Tartaria, what brings you to Fontaine?"
Tartaglia casually sat on the chair, crossed his legs, and said leisurely: "Of course it's to complete the mission."
Upon hearing this, Kong immediately looked at him warily, his eyes full of vigilance, "No matter what bad things you do, I will stop you."
Tartaglia waved his hand and said nonchalantly, "Don't worry, I don't have the guts to do anything wrong on Ide's territory. This guy is extremely ruthless.
If he hadn't arranged for Scaramucci to stop me in Liyue, I wouldn't have ended up like this."
When Kong heard him talk about Liyue, he was furious. "You bastard, I trusted you so much, but you lied to me."
Tartaglia spread his hands, shrugged, and said disapprovingly: "I didn't expect you to be so gullible. You believe whatever others say."
Kong was about to scold this guy, but suddenly he thought of his recent experience.
He felt a little like he had fallen into an elaborate scam again.
He looked at Tartaglia, pointed at himself, and asked, "Am I easy to fool?"
Tartaglia nodded and answered seriously, "Yes. I have been a Fatui for so many years, and I have successfully deceived you."
Kong was very depressed when he heard this. It was really embarrassing to be deceived by Tartaglia.
Tartaglia continued, "Although you are easily deceived by others, your strength is improving rapidly. Fight with me!
I have been able to master the Demon King Arms."
Kong was not interested in this meaningless battle. He frowned and said, "What's the benefit of fighting with you?"
Tartaglia's face froze, obviously not expecting Sora to be so realistic.
Then, he took out a purse from his pocket and said, "There are 100,000 Mora in it. If you can beat me, the money will be yours."
Kong was immediately tempted. One hundred thousand Mora, if spent frugally, would be enough for him and Pai to get by for a while.
He really didn't want to go to the shelter again and endure those strange looks.
Afterwards, Sora took Paimon and Tartaglia out of Fontaine City.
They searched along the way and found an open and deserted place.
In the dim glow of the sunset, the battle was about to break out.
At the beginning, Tartaglia directly activated his Demon King Armor.
His whole body was instantly wrapped in dark black armor, like a mighty abyss warrior, exuding a powerful aura.
Then, he held a long blade and turned into a bolt of lightning and attacked the air.
Faced with such a ferocious attack, Kong remained calm.
He held the edgeless sword in his hand and went forward steadily.
A fierce battle began, the sound of swords colliding and energy explosions intertwined, shaking the entire world.
About a quarter of an hour later, Tartaglia knelt on the ground dejectedly.
He supported the longbow with both hands, breathing heavily, his eyes flashing with deep unwillingness and frustration.
He never thought that he would be defeated so quickly.
When they were in Liyue, he could barely fight Kong on equal terms, but now he was defeated so easily.
Sora wiped the sweat from his forehead, slowly walked in front of Dadalia and stretched out his hand.
Tartaglia raised his head, looked at him, and shook his head, with a hint of stubbornness in his tone: "I can stand up by myself, I don't need your help!"
Sora said speechlessly: "You misunderstood. According to the previous agreement, you should hand over your purse to me."
Tartaglia felt his heart aching, his eyes were full of resentment: "You are already a guard of the Western Factory, why do you still care about this little thing of mine, Mora?
I haven’t been paid for months.”
Sora had no sympathy for Tartaglia, "Give me the money quickly."
Tartaglia had no choice but to empty his purse.
After getting the purse, Kong immediately turned around and left.
Looking at Sora's receding back, Tartaglia felt like crying but had no tears.
He sighed, "Alas, it seems that I can only go to that woman Alechino to borrow some money."

In a very inconspicuous corner not far away.
Helotadi stood there quietly, watching the entire battle, and couldn't help but sigh: "He is indeed the fourth adventer. His improvement in strength is really amazing. I'm afraid even Ide back then was not as good as him."
Beside her, Babilos looked calm and commented calmly, "The Traveler is truly a destined person, and his strength should improve so quickly."
Helotati turned to look at Babilos, "The purpose of your Witch Society is to prevent the destruction of the world, and our goal is to control the world. The two are actually not in conflict."
Babilos said with a hint of anger: "In order to control the world, you guys can watch your compatriots being swallowed by the abyss."
When the past was mentioned again, Helotadi showed no guilt at all, and responded indifferently: "They are just ants. Their existence is to highlight our greatness."
There was a flash of disgust in Barbiros' eyes, "But don't forget, you came from among them!"
Emperor Helota replied expressionlessly: "So what?
The moment I gained the power of the abyss, I left my mortal body behind and became a great being in the world."
Babilos said coldly: "You despicable people with no humanity will never ascend to the throne of the world."
Facing her rebuke, Helotadi looked calm, chuckled and asked back: "Barbilos, but who among those who have ascended to the throne of the world has not used despicable means?
History is the victor’s lie.”
Barbiros did not argue any further. Those who had ascended to the throne of the world had all used dishonorable means, including Yuanchu.
She snorted, "I don't know if the witches will interfere in your fight for the throne, but if it shakes the foundation of the world like it did during the Kanreya disaster, we, the Witch Society, will definitely intervene."
