Chapter 27: The Gifts of Marikawa Shizuka and Busujima Saeko

Inside the No Name residence.

Su Nian and Black Rabbit certainly didn't know what Shiroyasha was busy with again; after all, her coming and going like a phantom wasn't just a one- or two-day occurrence.

"Right, Black Rabbit, I still have two companions to summon over,"

Su Nian said, as if he had remembered something; mainly, Shiroyasha's reaction had been too intense, leaving absolutely no time to mention these things.

"They saved the world with me."

Of course, the two of them were purely just hangers-on.

It could also be considered the initial core team Su Nian had found for himself.

Hearing Su Nian's words, Black Rabbit turned around somewhat helplessly, looking at Su Nian, quite speechless.

"Lord Su Nian, why didn't you say so earlier?"

"That way, Black Rabbit could have arranged a welcome party or something."

"After all, this is the addition of new companions; how could it not be more formal?"

Black Rabbit didn't care about their identities; she was simply happy because of the addition of new companions.

Only, listening to Black Rabbit's words, the corner of Su Nian's mouth couldn't help but twitch.

Did this silly rabbit really think of herself as a companion of the Community?

Never mind, at least for now, he really was a companion of her Community.

Su Nian shook his head helplessly, smiling quite speechlessly as he said.

"I wanted to say it in advance, but Black Rabbit, have you forgotten? How long has it been since I arrived? A few hours!"

Hearing Su Nian's words, Black Rabbit turned her head away in some embarrassment, as if she had indeed forgotten that Su Nian hadn't even been in Little Garden for a day.

As for those companions who saved the world, he had probably only just met them, so how could he have notified her in advance?

"Lord Su Nian, then I will go and prepare the evening banquet first."

Black Rabbit blushed and hurried away, heading toward the City of the End, which was also the name of the Outer Gate city where No Name was currently located.

To prepare the food for the evening banquet.

The members of the Community still needed some comfort after having just experienced the Demon King's attack.

And the addition of Su Nian and his companions at this most critical moment was something that needed to be announced properly.

To increase Su Nian's good impression of and sense of belonging to No Name.

However, the only thing Black Rabbit could be glad about now was that the education of Arcadia was still quite decent, even after experiencing the Demon King's attack.

The remaining children were all quite strong, and some had even taken the initiative to shoulder responsibilities.

The older ones took care of the younger ones, and they had even spontaneously formed groups, starting to discuss among themselves what they should do next.

And how to solve the difficulties facing No Name.

Such as fetching water, the supply of food, and the handling of the Community's remaining assets.

In places where Black Rabbit, Su Nian, and Shiroyasha were not paying attention, this group of children displayed a maturity and strength beyond their years.

It could be said that if Su Nian hadn't arrived, or even if the three protagonists from the original story hadn't arrived, No Name might not have returned to its peak, but by the time these children grew up, it wouldn't have been much worse.

Watching Black Rabbit's departing figure, Su Nian also shook his head helplessly, not wanting to think about this silly rabbit anymore.

Better to let Marikawa Shizuka and Busujima Saeko come out first.

"Nian-chan, is this Little Garden?"

Marikawa Shizuka looked around curiously, but why did it feel so desolate here?

Wasn't it supposed to be a paradise for Gods and Buddhas and Asura? It didn't look like it at all; it felt more like a wasteland.

As for Busujima Saeko, the moment she appeared, she closed her eyes, adapting to her brand-new body.

"Yes, you have arrived in Little Garden now."

Su Nian nodded slightly and said, then took out the Biological Cards of Marikawa Shizuka and Busujima Saeko to check the Gifts bestowed upon them by the Little Garden Central Hub.

"Let me see, what are the Gifts on you?"

"Spirit Status of Murderer, and the blessing of Asclepius; both are very good Gifts."

The Spirit Status of Murderer transformed Busujima Saeko's race, unleashed her true nature, and turned her into a newborn Murderer.

And the Spirit Status of the Ghost Species is not considered weak in Little Garden, especially the Murderer known for killing.

It is a race that completely gathers the power, stamina, and resilience of the Ghost Species, along with the bloodthirsty instinct and combat instinct of the Murderer Species.

It can almost be said to be an existence born for battle and destined to die for killing.

In Little Garden, the only ones who can compare to Busujima Saeko are those Born Gods and Buddhas like Asura, or Demigod races.

And the Merit that Busujima Saeko "leached" was not given to her all at once, but rather given to her in the form of a rapid-growth buff.

Before the Merit is exhausted, it can be said that Busujima Saeko receives ten times the reward for every one part of effort.

And this leached Merit is almost enough to support Busujima Saeko until she grows to the top of the Five-digit level.

As for Marikawa Shizuka's Gift, it comes from the blessing of the Greek god of medicine, Asclepius.

Of course, this is not a blessing bestowed by the Asclepius of the Greek God Group; the Asclepius of Little Garden is still a Four-digit.

Rather, it is a blessing bestowed by the Little Garden Central Hub in the name of Asclepius, making Marikawa Shizuka's learning and research in medicine feel as if she has divine help.

Becoming a rare medical support personnel in Little Garden.

In the outside world, the status of a doctor is very high, and in Little Garden, it is even more so, perhaps even exceeding it.

After all, for general injuries or illnesses, one doesn't need to worry; a few minutes later, one recovers on their own.

And when it reaches the point of needing to see a doctor and using a medical Gift, it is almost at the point of being near-death or unable to recover, or it involves various Curses.

The importance of excellent high-level medical personnel is self-evident.

At this moment, Marikawa Shizuka and Busujima Saeko, who possess the Merit of saving the world, are like protagonists preparing to cultivate with a cheat code.

At least until the Merit is exhausted and they reach their growth limit, they will remain in this state of high-speed growth.

This is also the reason why Merit is so important within Little Garden Central.

And this is just the most common use of Merit.

"Nian-chan, how is it? Our Gifts?"

Marikawa Shizuka asked anxiously, and even Busujima Saeko could not help but glance over, looking forward to Su Nian's response.

"Your Gifts are very good, both almost having the potential to become gods!!"

Su Nian said loudly with great satisfaction, telling Marikawa Shizuka and Busujima Saeko about their Gifts.

Before coming to Little Garden, Su Nian had introduced Little Garden to them, or at least introduced the general rules.

He let them not worry about being unable to keep up with him and only being able to act as baggage.

"Mm-hmm, Nian-chan is the best!!!"

Upon hearing that she had the potential to become a god and maintain eternal youth, Marikawa Shizuka was so excited that she threw herself directly into Su Nian's arms.

Even Busujima Saeko could not help but reveal a smile; now she would not have to worry about being unable to keep up with Nian-jun.
