I left the battle on the ground to Starwood City. If I didn't send reinforcements soon, Timlad would probably blame me for going to the Hades.
The ominous black cat was still napping on my shoulder. The green-haired ominous witch was walking in front of me. With such a line-up, it was likely that anyone could go to the Chaos Abyss … Fine, I admit that I was just making things up. Even though it was still the same people, I felt suffocated when they walked together.
My logic told me that they could be trusted, but my instincts told me that they would likely kill me first rather than kill their opponents.
On the surface, everything seemed to have returned to normal. However, since some words were said, it would be impossible to take them back. Many things didn't seem to change on the surface, but they had indeed changed.
"… Silly cat, I'll change what you like about me, alright?"
I was no idiot. I had paused in surprise just now, but now that everything was over and I had calmed down, I noticed many things that I hadn't noticed before.
Could it be that the silly cat really liked me? I wasn't Beifeng, who didn't like cats. Yep, that was only natural. At most, I would treat her like a brother. Did she really want to sleep with me?
But I truly didn't know what part of me would attract the silly cat's attention. I usually treated her like … cat balls, cat frisbees, cat scarves, cat carpets, cat postal service, cat scouts … I used all sorts of excessive methods to treat my pets. I was already lucky that Druil's animal protection organization hadn't found out about it. Could it be that the silly cat actually had some special hobbies?
Alright then, if I couldn't figure it out, I could just ask.
"She's beautiful. Princess Peach is really cute. Hugging her should be really comfortable."
I felt rather helpless. Her answer was so honest that it was impossible to argue against it.
Actually, many couples started chasing after each other for the most basic reason of all.
"Why do you like her? She has such a bad personality. She's so arrogant and unreasonable. "
"I like her because I like her. There's no reason."
"… If she had a birthmark and pockmarks on her face, would you still like her?"
A smart person would probably answer "of course", because this comment would likely be heard by the person in question. An honest person would probably remain silent and not tell the truth, since they didn't want to be labeled as someone who judged others by their appearance.
The world had always been like this. They would always use ambiguous words like pleasing to the eye or getting along well with someone to describe the beginning of a favorable impression. However, no one dared to say that they had never judged a person by their appearance. After all, everyone would look at a person's face first.
With the same personality, a good-looking violent woman would be a tsundere, an average-looking woman would be a tomboy, and a low-looking woman would be ugly and mischievous. Of course, it was the same for women when they looked at men. Handsome men would always receive preferential treatment and patience.
Of course, looks weren't everything. Whether they could get together still depended on their feelings. But for an unlucky guy who didn't have good looks, he probably wouldn't even have the chance to build a relationship.
But personally speaking, I felt that it would be better for me to be slightly more muscular, at least based on my experience of being targeted by those scary dark elf aunties …
Although my face had caused me so much trouble in the past, I was still rather happy to be praised as handsome by a Gold Elf who had astonishingly high standards of beauty.
"That … no matter what, you should say he's handsome."
"Have you forgotten my hobbies? I wouldn't be able to stand it if you really grew up to be a handsome or muscular man. I'm already sick of seeing such elven men. Ah, a shota that's suitable for women's clothing is so cute. Let me kiss him. Goddess of Wind, you've truly done a good deed. "
What did it feel like to be teased by a cat and have a barbed tongue lick my ear? At that moment, I felt a cold, wet, and painful sensation at the tip of my ear. My most sensitive spot had been licked, followed by a chill down my spine as goosebumps appeared all over my body.
I tried to grab it, but it was empty air, and the black cat in front of me jumped in front of me.
The silly cat proudly shook her cat ears and wagged her tail in front of me. Then, she unhesitatingly revealed her bad hobbies. So she was actually a strange aunty just like Momo! She had always been peeking at my body!
"… One day, I'll grow a real beard. At that time, I'll stab you to death with it!"
"Ha, I'm quite curious as to when you'll grow an X down there …"
Harloys directly said sexually harassing words. When the Gold Elf Princess transformed into the Gold Elf Queen due to the passage of time, ten thousand years of loneliness finally accumulated. I didn't even dare to think too deeply about what kind of existence was underneath the loli's body.
I regretted it — I truly regretted it. Back when I was still an undead, I naturally suppressed my desires, which resulted in many scandals. Now that I had helped her recover her physical body, it was likely that she had given me quite a bit of trouble.
I was sweating profusely as I stared at her, wondering if I should use a goblin rocket or a gnome flying chair to send her to the moon and completely eliminate all future troubles. At this moment, the silly cat suddenly started laughing to the point where she started rolling around on the ground.
"… Haha, I was just teasing you. You actually took it seriously."
The black cat suddenly jumped up onto my left shoulder. This time, she licked my finger and meowed as she licked it, just like any other ordinary pet cat.
However, the words that were being transmitted through our soul connection were becoming worse and worse.
"No matter what, I'm still the Gold Elf Princess. Even if I need a * * * *, Renée would be more suitable than you. She has the same face, and her figure is much better. Besides, I've only been alive for a few years now, so I don't have that many desires. I was just joking, and you actually took it so seriously? You're so narcissistic. "
Although there were still quite a few inconsistencies in her words, our soul connection told me that she was telling the truth … especially when she said that Renée would be more suitable than me! This silly cat actually took a liking to my granddaughter!
"… I think I shouldn't tell Renée to be careful. After all, she's already the famous Yuri Princess. "
I felt slightly more reassured now. Even if the silly cat really did intend to commit a crime, it would still be better for her to die than for me to die. Renée, since your reputation has already been tarnished, why don't you block another calamity for me?
Since Harloys had made such a ruckus, I no longer had the mood to ask her about her personal feelings … What if I found out something even scarier!?
"Let's go. I hope that Timlad hasn't died yet. It's so difficult to find talented people in this day and age."
The wood spirits' assault airships were already parked at the edge of the city walls. With their assistance, it wouldn't take long for us to reach the ruins.
Roland shook his head as he walked towards the wood spirits' assault airship. However, he didn't notice the abnormal smile on the cat's face as she sat on his shoulder. She had already achieved her goal, so Roland stopped asking questions.
As if sensing some danger, Roland suddenly turned around to see Amelia, who had been silently watching the entire time. Amelia's bright smile gave off an increasingly dangerous feeling. Roland immediately sweated profusely as he turned around and sped up as if he was escaping from some disaster.
Some words had already been said, and some words had been heard. Some idiots finally understood their own thoughts. Some feelings had been expressed in sincere words, and some feelings were still hidden. But as time went on, everyone's personal feelings had already changed. It was likely that it would be difficult for them to return to how they used to be.
Besides, the Seven Original Sins were all in place now. As Roland's soul became complete, his feelings would naturally recover. Perhaps they were simply waiting patiently.
Perhaps Roland would still be able to hide from the sly hunters, but it seemed that he wouldn't be able to hide for long.
…
The wood spirits' assault airship fleet was a classic example of nature's style. Back in the Forest of Dreams, the wood spirits had used giant logs to create their airships. Perhaps this was the origin of the wood spirits' assault airship fleet. Now, the wood spirits' air force and airship fleet were all constructed from plants.
Flowers, vines, and logs were the most basic design. Every single material was carved with intricate patterns. But if one took a closer look, they would discover that the entire plant airship was just like an exquisite wooden sculpture.
The core of the airship was made up of wooden dragon bones and a sturdy body. The wings and jets were made up of transparent flower-like feathers. The vines were both decorations, as well as a melee defense system.
We were riding on a special assault airship. It looked just like a "flower" made up of five petals. Three petals were the wings, and two intersecting petals were the airship's body. Walking on this airship made me feel as if I had entered a fairytale world.
Although I could also hear the mechanical sounds of magical engines, I could sense that most of the airship's power source was still natural magic.
"Back when I left, we were still using wooden boats."
It would seem that the wood spirits' magical engineering technology had improved greatly in the past few years. They had even created their own path with the help of their Creator Goddess.
"Is this a new technology? It feels like there's no wood here at all. "
The strange thing was that I didn't receive an answer to my question. In the past, I was treated like a VIP in the Forest of Dreams, so the wood spirits would probably fight to answer my question.
But when I turned around, I understood why. A small unfamiliar wood spirit actually shrieked when she saw me approaching. She then hurriedly ran away while shouting for me.
"I don't want to get pregnant! Save me … "
I was able to make a wood spirit pregnant just by chatting? Since when did I have such an ability? And even if I didn't ask, I knew exactly who did it!
I turned around and glared viciously at Amelia, only to discover that she was still smiling subtly … Fine then, considering the difference in power levels between us, I strategically changed my gaze. Yep, it was only strategically changed. I definitely wasn't cowering. But, surprisingly, Amelia voluntarily explained what had happened.
"It's just a rumor."
"You released it?"
"I'm not that childish. It's Renée. She has a deep grudge against me. You'd better think about how to explain things to her. You did so many things behind her back, and now you're back without giving her an explanation."
"Tsk, a naughty child will still be a naughty child when she grows up. I'll teach her a good lesson later."
Amelia smiled ambiguously as she shook her head. She didn't say anything else. She already knew that Renée had arrived. Since Roland said that he wasn't afraid, then she would just have to wait for a good show.
Meanwhile, Harloys noticed another problem.
"What if Sophocles the Deceiver also arrives? What will you do? Even if they send a Greater Demon of the Earl rank or above, it won't be easy to deal with. "
"Relax, I have an ace that's specifically meant to deal with Main Gods. It's best if he comes. He won't be going back. "
"… What? You have an ace that can deal with Main Gods? Then why didn't Conservation use it just now? "
I smiled proudly but didn't answer. Actually, it was quite easy to think of an excuse for something like this. It wouldn't take long even if I wanted to.
As I expected, Harloys had an expression of realization three or four seconds later.
"… That ace is Conservation, right? You really know how to squeeze out every last bit of value."
I nodded. It might be a good thing that Conservation was currently casting forbidden spells in Eich's world. Anyone who was cast into Eich's world would have to face an enraged Undead Emperor and her forbidden spells.
