The unfamiliar girl first looked around, then fixed her gaze on Funina, her eyes sharpening:
"Are you that so-called God of Justice?"
“Eh… ah… I am…” Funina paused for a moment, then nodded softly.
Looking at the girl before her, she suddenly had an idea—and blurted it out without thinking:
"You wouldn't happen to be that country kid from the group chat, would you?"
"what?"
Upon hearing the words "country child," Xingzi's expression turned much sharper.
"Aren't you going to judge me?"
“Uh…yes, that’s right! Offending the gods is a grave sin! The gods cannot be insulted!” Although she was a little flustered by Kyoko’s gaze, Funina still forced herself to speak up when the topic came up, while thinking to herself:
"Where did this guy come from...? He looks kind of cute, but he's kind of scary... Will using the name of a god really scare him...? I hope nothing bad will happen?"
"Of course, I'm a very magnanimous god. As long as you apologize to me, I won't pursue the matter further!"
Somewhat timid, Funina tried to say something conciliatory to save face.
"apologize?"
Kyoko's expression was a little strange, and Funina's heart skipped a beat. She quickly said:
"Any questions?"
"Of course, no problem, but..."
Hearing the girl's words, Funina was somewhat pleased. "Yay! There's a way out!" she thought. "If I just back down a little, I can both uphold my divine status and resolve the problem." Thinking this, Funina felt a little excited.
"But what?"
"Beat me first!"
As the sharp words were spoken, a chain-like spear appeared.
"Eh... eh... huh?!"
Staring at the gun barrel so close at hand, even from a distance she could feel a throbbing pain in her neck. The initially delighted Funina was instantly terrified, her pupils dilating in shock.
"God's word must be very powerful, right? If you want to judge me, then defeat me first. Perfect, I've never fought with God before!"
Listening to Sakura Kyoko's enthusiastic words, Funina almost burst into tears.
Why...why did things turn out this way?
She knows her own situation perfectly well. As for Fu Ningna, whose combat strength is only that of an ordinary person, to put it bluntly, her combat strength might not even be as good as a chicken's.
As for fighting a magical girl like Sakura Kyoko who is skilled in combat... all Fryna can say is—are you going to kill me, friend?
However, simply backing down was not an option, since for her, revealing that she was not the true water god was even more unacceptable than death.
What should I do...? What should I do...?
Just as Funina was in a complete panic, she suddenly noticed a message in the chat group—
Jiang Qiao: If she encounters difficulties, give her food. @God of Justice
Undoubtedly, Jiang Qiao, who was acting as Eden's bed partner and scrolling through the chat group, had already guessed the direction the conversation would take next.
Given Kyoko's personality and this new group member's behavior, it's quite possible for these two to start a fight... or rather, for Kyoko to be one-sidedly beaten up.
Although Funinga didn't know who this suddenly appearing ID belonged to, she instinctively accepted the suggestion despite being in dire straits.
She glanced around... food... food... and finally, staring at the gun barrel so close at hand, Fou swallowed hard and, with a trembling heart, pushed her barely-eaten Proustius toward Sakura Kyoko.
"This...this is for you..."
She shouldn't mind if she's already eaten something, right? Fu Ningna suddenly regretted taking the stranger's advice in the group chat. After all, giving someone something you've already eaten is practically a provocation.
What if this girl suddenly lunges at me in a huff...? I'm so scared...
But she clearly didn't understand the allure of food for a girl named Sakura Kyoko.
Upon seeing Funina's actions, Apricot's eyes lit up instantly as she looked at the cake on the table, and the hostility in her eyes receded at a visible speed, like a receding tide.
After twirling the chain gun, she slung it over her shoulder with one hand, and then casually sat down on a chair on the other side of the courtyard.
Sharing food = Let's be friends?
For Kyoko Sakura, this was an extremely simple logic.
Even if it's food that's been eaten, it doesn't matter. As long as you give me food, you must be a good person... If it's God, then you're a good God too!
When Funina opened her eyes, she saw Sakura Kyoko enjoying her afternoon tea desserts without any hesitation. She was somewhat surprised that "this actually works," but at the same time, she breathed a sigh of relief as if she had survived a disaster.
Watching her beloved Proustis disappear into someone else's stomach before she could even take a couple of bites... Kurusi, for some reason, Frinna felt a pang of pain—it would have been better to just kill her.
My afternoon tea... my dessert... my favorite prostitus... oh my gosh!
Guilty! Death penalty! Death penalty!
Normally, with such a raging inferno inside, Funina would have been furiously judging the sinner who dared to steal her few moments of happiness. But facing the girl who had just been pointing a gun at her a moment ago, Funina could only silently shed tears in her heart.
Why am I even arguing with this person...?
Suddenly, Sakura Kyoko stood up, and this abrupt turn of events made Funina's heart skip a beat...
Is this guy going to eat my dessert and then hit me?
Fortunately, Kyoko did not do that. Instead, after feeling around, she extended her hand to Funina.
It's a sandwich.
"...For me?"
Fu Ningna was somewhat surprised and at a loss.
Kyoko simply nodded, revealing a rather cheerful smile:
"Ah."
"...Ahem, since that's the case, then I'll accept it because I can't refuse!" Funina smiled slightly, but then seemed to remember something, coughed twice, and put on her dignified expression again.
This undoubtedly symbolizes that the two have formed a friendship.
God of Justice: Thanks. @Jiang Qiao
Kyoko Sakura: Hmph, mind your own business.
Although Xingzi was happy to have made a new friend, she was still somewhat dissatisfied after seeing Jiang Qiao's message in the group chat.
Doesn't this make me seem like the kind of person who'll become friends with you just because you give me food?
I'm not that casual! (Enraged)
"It seems like the problem has been solved."
Looking at the chat group where the atmosphere had instantly become harmonious, and listening to the lazy, hazy murmurs in her ears, Jiang Qiao—'Alissia'—slowly closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
The deep night faded away with the passing of the bright moon, until the morning light of the next day shone on his face, and Eden awoke from his hazy, beautiful dream.
Good morning, Eden.
The girl's sweet voice was undoubtedly the most beautiful alarm clock Eden had ever heard since birth, instantly clearing her nerves, which had been numbed by alcohol and had just started to wake up after a night's sleep.
Her beautiful, golden eyes held a dazed look of just waking up, but more than anything, there was an emotion called 'happiness'. The striking singer's pretty face was full of smiles as she softly responded:
Good morning, Ellie.
"How did you sleep last night?"
“Very good, I had a dream.”
"Eh~ were you dreaming? Let me guess what dream it was—it was me, right?" After a brief moment of feigned thought, the pink-haired girl tilted her head with a smile, revealing the playful nature of her girlish body.
"You guessed right."
Eden readily admitted it, then said with a half-smile, "So, can you guess what kind of dream it was, Ellie?"
She said this out of a mischievous intent.
"Hmm... I can't guess that~ But I'm really curious, so..."
"Can you just tell people directly, my dear Eden?"
Quite naturally, just as he remembered, Jiang used Alicia's usual tactic in this situation—acting cute!
Based on what Jiang Qiao saw in Paradise Ellie's 50,000-year memory, this trick has always worked for Eden!
"Sorry, I don't remember either."
Eden said this, and although 'Alicia' was somewhat skeptical, she could only sigh: "If that's the case, then there's nothing we can do."
After all, while dreams can sometimes leave a deep impression, because they are subconscious, they are easily forgotten, and you may forget them almost entirely after waking up.
Given Eden's personality, he certainly wouldn't lie to Alicia, right? Jiang Qiao made this judgment based on her examination of the memories.
And added;
"But if you remember, you must tell me!"
"it is good."
Eden smiled, a faint blush rising on her cheeks, her golden eyes fixed on 'Alicia', revealing a unique meaning.
