Chapter 977: Chapter 475: I Only Need You (2)
Extremely self-assured.
In Herbert’s view, even without resorting to dubious means, he is still capable of making it to the end.
—as long as the two of them work hard together.
Nenasha is well aware that she is one of Herbert’s sources of confidence...
Hmph!
Although just "one of," I am surely the biggest one!!!
Those other freaks, like some damn Sun God or Silver Moon Goddess... you bunch of punks definitely can’t compete with me!
Nenasha’s hypothetical rivals are always gods of the same rank, only they can pose a minor threat to her.
As for the other Monster Girls... hehe.
Would you fight for favor with the family’s cats and dogs?
In any case, Nenasha certainly wouldn’t do such a thing.
Not only would she refrain from maliciously targeting them, she would instead help them, increasing their "value."
These little animals seen as "cats and dogs" are capital for her future conflicts with others!
These are my assets!
Thanks to the great generous sisterly love from me, you can reach today’s status!
Nenasha’s thoughts—can’t be considered entirely wrong.
After all, without her initial investment in Herbert, the later story between Valentina and him wouldn’t have happened at all.
Never mind if some Harmonious God changed their mind, or if their initial manipulation was self-righteous, just ask if it’s right or not?
Is the situation like this? Is the situation indeed like this?
Yes, right?
That settles it!
Of course, even though Nenasha didn’t expect Herbert to be bewitched from the start, she was still somewhat displeased at being so easily refused.
["Oh my, although this answer isn’t exactly surprising to me, your decisively ruthless decision really makes me feel quite emotional inside!"]
So boring!
Honestly, even though I know you’re a person with strong will, you shouldn’t deny me even a bit of chance to beguile you, right?
Yet you’re not cooperating at all, making this Evil God feel so embarrassed~
No sense of interaction!
This makes me, a divine entity, feel so discouraged in the gameplay!
Thus, to make her partner understand this matter, she opted for a method that didn’t fit a Divine being, yet was quite girlish.
She chose—to act spoiled.
["Mm~ Hmph~ Heh~ Ah~"]
Nenasha didn’t say anything but made strange noises by Herbert’s ear.
Like a moan or sob, like a cry or lament, echoing in a hollow valley, the sorrow lingered long!
She silently, no, loudly expressed her stance—Hey, friend, it’s time to console me, or else, haha, don’t blame me for crying loudly!
This time, listening to the coercing sounds around him, even if Herbert was slow, he would know what needed to be done.
Besides, he wasn’t slow.
"Hehe."
Herbert immediately understood Nenasha’s meaning, chuckled, and with a smile reassured: "I don’t need to become it, because I believe I only need you, without anyone else’s help."
He didn’t explain his thoughts too much, just straightforwardly expressed one attitude.
I only want you.
Nenasha, don’t need anyone else; I only need your assistance.
Firm stance!
As for the Sun Goddess’s blessing, the Moon Goddess’s blessing, Ice and Snow Goddess’s aid...none of these were by my choice!
It’s those flamboyant flirts who approached on their own!
I merely passively didn’t refuse.
Yeah, I am also a victim!
Faced with Herbert’s explanation, Nenasha didn’t fully believe it, instead gave a playful smirk.
["Heh-heh~ Is that so."]
"Mm-mm~ So it is."
Facing Herbert’s "deeply honest" demeanor, Nenasha smiled silently.
The words sound nice, but don’t you think I know what kind of person you are?
I’ve seen it with my own eyes!
Don’t forget that when you were courting those little ones, I was right there beside you!
Do you think sweet-talk will work?
Well, it actually does.
As the only living being who witnessed Herbert’s ability to tell humans one thing and spirits another, Nenasha reluctantly accepted his assurance.
["Alright, since you put it that way, I will generously forgive you."]Miss Xie Shen graciously demonstrated that she won’t hold grudges against him.
Even knowing Herbert was likely smoothing things over, she was willing to listen.
So what!
He wants to speak, I’m willing, can you control me!
I’m happy~
Although she had become indifferent internally, outwardly she needed to feign reluctance.
["Heh, men."]
Heh, women.
Herbert chuckled inwardly, not exposing his Harmonious God’s little trick.
Hey, how old are you exactly, still so immature?
["Hmm? Are you..."]Certain Harmonious Gods remained as sharp as ever in some aspects.
"Ahem! I’m not, I didn’t, don’t say nonsense!"
Herbert hurried up to kill the dubious topic and instead said: "By the way, since we’re already giving up on manipulating it, is there a way to establish contact with it?"
"I really don’t want it to rush into Elda, such a big tree could cause quite a few problems."
If possible, Herbert hopes that the tree would stay here, not make any bigger noise.
Here, the commotion might not necessarily draw the monastery’s attention, but what if.
Such a tall tree is hard not to be noticed.
Although even if it gets exposed one day, that invincible old Deng would likely just turn a blind eye.
However, others have eyes too.
If other people in the monastery saw this anomaly and reported to the upper echelons, then old Deng couldn’t hold others back from coming to investigate.
Herbert wishes to eliminate all risks of early exposure.
["Oh, there is a way."]
Nenasha was in good spirits, or rather, she almost never had low spirits, and was now back to normal, casually saying: ["The current you is still slightly lacking, but once you’re fully enlightened, your soul will be qualified to hear its call with your own strength."]
"Relying on me?"
Herbert responded immediately, asking: "Can you help me establish contact with it?"
["Of course~ Isn’t it easy? It’s just that the squirrel’s soul is too weak hence incapable to hear it, right?"]
Listening to Nenasha’s ridicule, Herbert silently raised his head and saw the Demigod Squirrel peeking cautiously around the treetop.
This guy really put all points into stamina, didn’t bother with intelligence at all.
The white squirrel hasn’t realized what happened, still thinking the Holy Tree has an issue, trying to communicate with it endlessly.
"Hoo meow! What happened! Lord Holy Tree! Is something wrong?"
It even tapped on the trunk, attempting to awaken it.
Thinking of Miss Xie Shen’s earlier words, Herbert raised his eyebrows, forming a hardly restrained guess: "It...can hear?"
["Yes, all along hearing the squirrel’s voice, but the squirrel fails to understand its response."]
?
Herbert couldn’t help but cast a look of Mercy towards the white squirrel.
"Poor thing."
This guy always thought the other side was deaf, not realizing he was the one ignoring others.
["It’s very pitiful!"]
Herbert’s comment was on the clueless white squirrel whereas Nenasha sympathized with the Holy Tree that probably had calluses growing in its ears.
["It’s been disturbed single-handedly for years, it doesn’t get angry, truly too good-tempered."]
...
...
Meanwhile, as Herbert attempted to establish contact with the Holy Tree.
An epic meeting took place within Elda.
Kathy, newly arrived, met two similar-aged girls.
Kathy: "Hmm?"
Teresa: "Hm?"
Yunier: "Oh?"
