Chapter 819 - 13: Relogin_2
In this way, even Gu Mo himself naturally felt somewhat inflated, confident that if he were to return to that battle back then, he would...Well, maybe even without using the Fixed Star Technique, he could go head-to-head with God Fusion Zeus.
But wanting to crash into Chaos was still a long way off.
After a bit of self-assessment, he quickly calmed down, extinguishing the small sense of inflation in his heart. Speaking of which, thanks to the spar with Chaos, this over-the-top battle provided him with an abundance of experience, allowing him to grow so much at once.
Thinking about it this way, should I go scrounging with dangerous bosses in the Dungeon World more often? Wouldn’t that be better?
With this subtle thought in mind, his thoughts wandered through the vast universe, his gaze also cast toward the blue planet 380,000 kilometers away.
The material universe is diverse, and he naturally has various perception forms of the world.
On the planet’s surface, the ups and downs, the flickering of the sea of consciousness, and electrons lasted no more than a fraction of a second, and his vast infinite thoughts were projected over.
......
...
The scene shifts back to Fantasy Land, and about another week has passed.
Suwako’s state is naturally nothing much to talk about.
The proverbial "once the bowstring is drawn, there’s no turning back" –
After the plan began, Suwako also entered the process of divine transformation. As long as this step is crossed, the world would be infinitely vast and the future bright without them being affected by the retiring of the Power of Faith environment, no longer having to worry about stopping without renewal.
However, aside from Gu Mo being confident enough, to Kanako and Sanae Kochiya, who are new to this plan, it’s a nerve-wracking matter.
This step looks very perilous...
Kanako could still keep her composure, but Sanae was truly unable to fully relax; of course, whenever something felt amiss, she would immediately come to find someone to have a look... Gu Mo understood this, after all, it’s human nature.
But the number of times she came looking for him was too many, and the frequency was too high...
Plus, Fujiwara no Meihong also tried every day to come over during recess and persistently occupy his time, preventing him from having a chance to interact with Teacher Keine...
— This way, the situation became quite peculiar.
Even in the Human World, his reputation seemed to have a tendency to be twisted.
In a way, he certainly became more renowned, but unfortunately, none of it was good reputation.
In the Bamboo Forest.
"Meihong, your cooking skills are too terrible..." Squatting deep in the bamboo forest, looking at the white-haired girl skillfully and nimbly taking the barbecue from the fire pit edge and handing a skewer to him, the young man twitched his mouth and commented on the overly charred meat in front of him.
Is this the essence of the millennium roaming experience she bragged about?
Why does it feel like it’s all just the bad parts?
"Hmph! There was no sight of you helping out with the barbecue just now, and now when it’s time to eat, you have so many opinions!" The white-haired girl’s face also turned slightly red, replying fiercely while looking at the barbecue in her hands, feeling deeply embarrassed.
"I couldn’t help it, I had to re-log in just now..." Gu Mo blinked.
"What nonsense are you talking about, it sounds just like something Kaguya would say?" Fujiwara no Meihong looked displeased.
She boasted and ended up botching it... Such a thing makes her feel completely ashamed.
It should have been fine; she used to barbecue often, making it taste great, why botched it now... wait, it seems like that was all in the past, and since meeting Keine until now, she didn’t need to cook herself for hundreds of years.
Even if she didn’t eat at the Temple School, she could go have a fight with that witch Kaguya and get a meal at the Eternal Pavilion... she had no psychological burden eating Kaguya’s food.
But because of this, naturally, she neglected her cooking skills for hundreds of years, and now, picking up barbecue again after so long, she was indeed somewhat rusty.
"It’s just a bit burnt! Eat up!"
"No way, I’m not eating this!" The young man on the opposite side showed no mercy, putting the barbecue down directly and saying seriously, "Let’s head back to the Human World to eat. The stews at Nidong Pavilion are pretty good; I think that’ll do..."
"Damn it, it’s easy for you to talk, I’m out of money... it was all spent on treating you to meals." Fujiwara no Meihong said, filled with anger.
But Gu Mo was even more righteously indignant: "The Temple School originally provided work meals. It was you who kept dragging me out every day during this period... and if I don’t eat, it’s not my problem, right?!"
Damn!
Why does this guy make so much sense...
Fujiwara no Meihong bit her lip, frustratedly throwing down the barbecue in her hand: "All right, all right, let’s head back to the Human World now."
She did it so he wouldn’t waste his spare time at the Temple School, dragging him out every recess, lunch break, etc., to avoid Keine... so naturally, she also felt responsible for his meal problems, although he mentioned it was unnecessary, she didn’t take it seriously.
Yet previously having no demand for human currency, she didn’t have much spare change, and now found herself in a predicament.
"Perhaps I’ll just eat at the Temple School from now on..." Gu Mo casually suggested.
"No way!" Fujiwara no Meihong squinted her eyes, stating firmly. "You promised to cooperate with me!"
She worked so hard to reach this point; if she let him go back, wouldn’t everything be in vain? What was all she did before for then?!
"Okay, if you think it’s fine, then it can work..."
Gu Mo neither agreed nor disagreed, his eyes full of amusement; this delinquent girl was quite interesting.
"Oh right..."
Fujiwara no Meihong seemed to remember something, reluctantly reminding her, "If it’s this afternoon, you can eat at the Temple School... anyway, in the afternoon, Keine and I will be going out— don’t look at me like that, it’s mainly to deal with that tree."
She irritably pointed at the giant tree at the horizon, glowing golden under the sunlight, like a towering Golden Tree.
Because of this giant tree’s presence, Fantasy Land’s recent backdrop has turned fantastical.
"So that’s it... wish you luck with that."
Gu Mo raised an eyebrow, but nodded nonetheless.
"We’ll definitely be fine, you don’t need to worry... anyway, situations like this are quite common in Fantasy Land." Fujiwara no Meihong pouted and continued.
"Not long ago, the Eternal Pavilion was trying to turn the entire land into a sealed room and make the night last forever... now this tree, it’s probably some idle person coming up with a whimsical idea again, but in the end, they’ll all be solved by getting beaten by the Reimu Witch."
Getting beaten by the Reimu Witch...
Gu Mo’s eyebrows twitched slightly, his expression a bit peculiar.
He let out a couple of nervous, awkward laughs: "Haha... I wasn’t worried either."
