Chapter 125: News of the No Name Flag
Watching the three of them vanish in an instant, even Lamia, who had already steeled herself for this,
still couldn't help but let her mouth twitch twice. Are these truly the heroes cultivated by an old-line God Group?
Isn't this speed and fluidity of escape just a bit too smooth?
Heaven knows how the three of them managed to split up with such tacit understanding.
Lamia had the feeling that she was a fake Four-digit, and that the three of them were the real, proper Four-digits.
How could there be such a huge gap between them when they were both Four-digits?
"Don't worry, the Twelve Heavenly Generals have people intercepting, so they won't let us take action."
Lamia said with great helplessness, feeling mentally exhausted.
Even "mentally exhausted" wasn't enough to describe how she felt right now.
No, why should she, a child not even ten years old, have to shoulder such a heavy burden, commanding four Four-digits to quietly spirit Kalki away?
Isn't this just a bit too challenging?
Yes, she was nine years old this year, and relying on Leticia's Divinity, she had even become a Four-digit earlier than Leticia.
One can only say that Little Garden Vampires are full of talent.
"Is that so? Then it's fine."
A pale gray figure emerged once more; Su Nian returned from the state of having dispersed into the Concept of the Blacklight Virus, condensing his form.
Yet, facing Lamia's near-interrogative gaze, Su Nian said without the slightest hint of embarrassment.
"Rest assured, I've already asked my maid to help collect it."
What dignity? It's just an alt account; why still care about mere dignity? Aren't alt accounts meant for letting oneself go?
"I think my nail art is still quite pretty, so I won't be going for the time being; I'm the one who opened that nail salon."
Meili shook her slender fingers, along with the nail art that seemed to have painted the entire starry sky upon them, and said with a very sweet smile.
And Aishiliya? What? Did she leave?
Of course she didn't leave; she had been standing there the whole time, you all just had an illusion earlier.
Although, it would be better if one could ignore the faint blush appearing on her face.
After all, Aishiliya still carried a bit of an honest Knight's personality, and her skin wasn't as thick as those two scumbags, Su Nian and Meili.
Seeing the reactions of these three, even Maxwell didn't know what to say.
He wanted to complain, but didn't know how to complain.
No, is it you guys who can teleport, or is it me who can teleport?
Why do I feel like you guys disappear much faster than I can teleport?
"We only need to pick up His Highness from a Gift Game, and then let Maxwell take His Highness away."
Lamia stopped hiding things and directly stated the content of the mission assigned to her by those above.
"Oh? Is that so? Then it's fine."
Su Nian breathed a sigh of relief; he wasn't prepared to face the iron fist of the Heavenly Army yet.
——
City of the End, within the No Name base.
After discussing the location and time for their next meeting with Meili and the others, Su Nian swapped off his alt account and logged back into his main account.
Sigh, not being able to create clones is such a hassle; it's a good thing I have strong enough spatial abilities.
Otherwise, having two accounts for one person, and sometimes needing to log in simultaneously, is a headache just thinking about it.
Especially once I graduate from Scathach and take over Avalon, it will be even more of a headache.
But fortunately, Su Nian found himself the strongest caretaker—the Mother of Evil Gods, Angra Mainyu; I'll just let her log in when the time comes.
As for Avalon, I'll leave it to you, Artoria; you wouldn't want Britain to go unsaved, would you?
And just as Su Nian stretched his back and loosened his body.
Bang!!!
A loud noise erupted at the entrance; it was Shiroyasha kicking open the door of No Name, and she even kicked the door off entirely.
That kick was perhaps a bit too powerful.
"Boss, that'll be five hundred Thousand Eyes Gold Coins; this was a door installed back when Canary and the others were still here, it wasn't cheap."
Su Nian extended his hand toward Shiroyasha without a second thought.
"Hey, who treats their boss with that kind of attitude?"
Shiroyasha said, somewhat angrily, as she tapped Su Nian's head with her folding fan.
"I brought good news! Do you really not want to hear my good news?"
Su Nian didn't speak, letting Shiroyasha whack his head with her folding fan, only pursing his lips to signal Shiroyasha to look behind her.
Shiroyasha turned her head in curiosity and saw Black Rabbit, whose hair had changed color, looking at her with a face full of fury.
"Lady Shiroyasha really doesn't know the price of firewood and rice as the head of the house; five hundred Thousand Eyes Gold Coins could feed the children of the Community for how long!"
"And this was left behind by Canary and the others; it still has great commemorative value!"
Black Rabbit said through gritted teeth, lecturing her; that kick from Shiroyasha earlier had almost sent her to the afterlife.
Especially looking at the deformed door, her heart had almost jumped out of her throat.
Although she hadn't lived a life of hardship, in the few days she had been helping Leticia manage the Community's finances, she had truly learned what it meant to spend money like water.
She wished she could break every copper coin in half to spend.
But now that such a large sum of money was suddenly going to leave the Community's account, Black Rabbit felt like her heart was going to break just thinking about it.
"Fine, I'll pay for it, won't I?"
Shiroyasha said with great helplessness, then looked at Su Nian with a rather resentful expression.
It was as if to ask, did you do this on purpose, letting Black Rabbit manage the accounts!
Shiroyasha naturally knew the personality of a Moon Rabbit; every word in the world that describes beauty could be applied to a Moon Rabbit, and naturally, this included the attributes of a virtuous wife and good mother, as well as frugality.
Letting Black Rabbit manage the money directly awakened her miserly attribute; it was almost as if she were saying that money could only come in and never go out.
Of course, this was a bit of an exaggeration; Black Rabbit wouldn't say anything about legitimate expenses, and she was even quite generous, but it was hard to say when it came to less legitimate expenses.
Especially for Shiroyasha, who had already treated the "Planeswalker" founded by Su Nian as her own private piggy bank.
The comfortable life she once had was gone... and she had enjoyed it for less than two months.
It had gotten to the point where she couldn't even buy a few pretty outfits for Black Rabbit anymore.
As for Su Nian, he naturally acted as if he had seen nothing; this had nothing to do with him, he was just finding something for Black Rabbit to do.
Who told Shiroyasha to tease Black Rabbit all day long?
In any case, he had never felt his own spending was restricted.
Shiroyasha touched her pocket, a look of embarrassment appearing on her face, and she gave Black Rabbit an awkward smile.
"Um, Black Rabbit-chan, can you give me a discount?"
"The gold coins on me aren't quite enough..."
Crap, crap, she had actually forgotten that the upper-level headquarters of Thousand Eyes had come to the lower levels today to audit the accounts, and she had already used the money on her to fill the hole.
Black Rabbit sighed quite helplessly, looked at the awkwardly smiling Shiroyasha, and rolled her eyes.
"Fine, what kind of discount?"
Hmm, once she got back, she would lower Shiroyasha's allowance limit.
"How about a 0.000001 percent discount?"
Shiroyasha took out five Thousand Eyes copper coins and handed them to Black Rabbit, feeling very embarrassed.
"This is all the money I have on me."
Black Rabbit was also speechless; looking at Shiroyasha, she didn't know what to say.
"Hehe."
Shiroyasha could only smile sheepishly, acting cute in an attempt to muddle through.
If it had been five silver coins, Black Rabbit wouldn't have said anything, but what the hell were five copper coins?
"How about we just forget it, Black Rabbit-chan? I'll keep these five copper coins to buy snacks on the way back."
"No way!"
Black Rabbit refused with a determined look, then reached out her hand and forcibly pried the five copper coins that Shiroyasha was clutching tightly out of her hand.
"My last bit of money..."
Shiroyasha looked on in despair as Black Rabbit, without the slightest hesitation, tossed the last five copper coins she had into her wallet.
As for Su Nian, he was suppressing his laughter while watching the show; you deserve it for trying to trick Black Rabbit into wearing all sorts of shameful outfits every single day.
Now you're getting your retribution!
"Alright, enough messing around, Boss, by the way, what was that good news you wanted to tell us earlier?"
Su Nian grabbed Shiroyasha, who was just about to pounce on Black Rabbit to snatch back her wallet, and reminded her that it was time to talk about serious matters.
Of course, it was more likely that she was acting on a whim, rather than actually wanting to snatch Black Rabbit's wallet.
Black Rabbit had just taken the last five copper coins she had, so it was reasonable for her to go and rub up against Black Rabbit, right?
Then Shiroyasha was grabbed by the collar by Su Nian and dangled in mid-air, her limbs flailing.
Seeing that her plan had failed, and following Su Nian's reminder.
Shiroyasha finally remembered what she had come to No Name for.
"Ahem."
Shiroyasha cleared her throat, and then shouted in a very excited voice!
"I have some good news for you all!"
"I've found a clue to your flag!"
In an instant, Black Rabbit froze; she didn't even realize that the wallet in her hand had slipped to the ground, and the gold coins, silver coins, and Shiroyasha's five copper coins inside had rolled out.
"Lord Shiroyasha, what did you just say?"
Black Rabbit still doubted whether she had misheard something.
But a Moon Rabbit's ears were directly connected to Little Garden Central; it was almost impossible for her to have heard wrong.
Which meant that Shiroyasha hadn't been lying just now; she really had found news about the No Name flag.
"I said I found news about your flag."
Shiroyasha repeated it again; she could naturally see the emotion on Black Rabbit's face.
So she didn't say anything else, but said it one more time to help Black Rabbit wake up from her shock.
"But, kid, why don't you have a look of surprise or shock at all?"
Shiroyasha looked at Su Nian with some curiosity; Su Nian was as calm as he had been just a moment ago, saying nothing, yet it was as if he knew everything.
"Could it be that you did all of this?"
"Shh."
Su Nian gently raised his finger to Shiroyasha, telling her not to make a scene.
