Chapter 60: You have not summoned Little Algol today

~8 min read 1,487 words

"Who are you?"

Facing the voice that had suddenly appeared in her mind, Sakura's first reaction was fear, and only then did she ask in a low voice.

"Hm? Algol?"

Su Nian was also somewhat surprised; he had not expected that Algol, who had been sealed within the Demon Star all this time, would suddenly pop out at this moment.

"That's right, it's Little Algol, the most beautiful girl in Little Garden."

Algol couldn't help but speak up; she had been in a deep slumber for all these years while sealed.

If Su Nian hadn't brought her to the outside world, weakening the seal's effect, she probably would have continued to sleep.

In any case, Star Spirits are immortal, so being sealed was just like taking a very long nap.

"Since you've heard the voice of the beautiful Little Algol, why haven't you summoned Little Algol out yet?"

Algol said in a lazy, casual tone.

She was quite satisfied with her current situation anyway; it was fine if Su Nian summoned her, and it was fine if he didn't.

"But are you sure, Little Algol?"

Su Nian said, somewhat puzzled, as Algol summoned as Medusa was hideously ugly.

Although his strength was far greater than Lucius', and the form in which he summoned Algol was much more complete.

This did not mean that the appearance of the summoned Algol could resemble her original appearance by much.

After all, summoning Algol in the name of Medusa was a degradation of her to begin with; how good could it possibly look?

"What do you mean by that? Are you dissatisfied with Little Algol's beauty?"

Algol said indignantly; you could be dissatisfied with her, but you could not be dissatisfied with her beauty.

"That's not it, I'm fine with anything, it's mainly, are you sure, Little Algol?"

Su Nian asked again; he was actually quite curious about what Little Algol would look like when summoned.

But the point was that Algol was, after all, a long-renowned Problem Child of Little Garden, and under Athena's years of meticulous management.

The successive holders of Algol were all playboys similar to Lucius; after all, those who were strong had no use for summoning Algol.

Why would they be bored enough to add variables to their own lives?

And the Algol summoned by the weak only had instincts that were easier to control.

From this, it could be seen that Athena was indeed a woman who held grudges; Su Nian did not believe that Athena had no hand in this.

"That goes without saying, hurry up and summon Little Algol; Little Algol can't wait to let you, this guy, witness Little Algol's magnificent beauty."

Su Nian couldn't refuse Algol, so he simply summoned her.

Athena was quite respectful; at least Su Nian could feel that his control over Algol was maxed out, to the point where he could even perceive Algol's thoughts.

There was no need to worry about her going out of control or other problems after being summoned; at worst, he could just summon her back.

Yet, the moment Algol was summoned, she fell silent.

Before the light had even dissipated, Algol returned directly into the Demon Star, continuing to be sealed.

"Damn ugly woman!"

Algol said through gritted teeth; as expected, Athena was still that same ugly woman who was jealous of her beauty back then.

To ruin that beautiful face of hers, Athena had actually resorted to such methods.

"Little Algol is not finished with you!"

After cursing Athena for a while, Algol turned around and warned Su Nian.

"You have not summoned Little Algol today."

She then continued to wallow in her seal; calling it wallowing wasn't entirely accurate, to be precise, she was looking for loopholes in the seal to see if there was any way to bypass the degradation of her appearance.

Algol could endure the degradation of her Spirit Status, the loss of her Star Authority, and even being used by others for her Sovereignty.

But there was one thing she could not tolerate in the slightest, and that was the degradation of her beauty.

Damn Athena, damn ugly woman, to actually degrade Algol's beauty into such a state.

Even some decent-looking female demons were better looking than Algol.

"By the way, don't forget to bestow a Spirit Status upon Little Algol's student."

Before wallowing, Algol did not forget to remind Su Nian; one of the important reasons she had awakened was Matou Sakura.

Of course, she was not talking about the Matou Sakura of this world, but all the Matou Sakuras across the countless World Lines of the entire Type-Moon World.

Almost every Matou Sakura had a very tragic fate.

Some were sent to the Matou family and thrown into the worm pit.

Some became food for Death Eaters.

Some were turned into specimens after being sealed.

Some were hunted by non-human species.

Countless sorrowful futures, countless desperate futures, and the very few futures where they found happiness—on the individual of Matou Sakura, an unimaginable amount of despair and demonic nature had accumulated.

And she, Algol, the Demon Star Star Spirit, the Original Demon, was more suited than anyone to be the teacher of someone who had accumulated such a degree of demonic nature.

Of course, she, Algol, was not just anyone; if she weren't so severely restricted and sealed right now, why would she bother looking for a student?

Once she broke free, she would definitely make that damn ugly woman Athena pay!

And once she had a shrine maiden, an Executor, Algol would effectively have a Four-Digit Exceptional Avatar in the outside world.

With an Avatar, many things would be easy to handle.

"Bestow a Spirit Status? I have no idea how to do that."

Su Nian said helplessly; he also understood that Matou Sakura and Algol were highly compatible, and Algol was even willing to take the initiative to cultivate her.

But the operation of bestowing a Spirit Status was something he truly had never learned.

He only knew that after arriving in Little Garden, the Little Garden Central would consolidate and bestow Spirit Statuses; in Little Garden, even a grain of sand had a Spirit Status.

But outside of Little Garden, it is hard to say; generally, only those who have had a great impact on the world and achieved a certain amount of Merit possess a Spirit Status.

Or perhaps, they were born accompanied by a Miracle that could not be manifested.

However, these are all beings who possess a Spirit Status by birth.

As for artificially bestowing a Spirit Status, Su Nian truly does not know how; it sounds quite obscure, and even the Laplace Lens does not contain this information.

After all, who would be bored enough to bestow a Spirit Status? Isn't that something one can obtain just by taking a walk through Little Garden?

However, if Little Garden Central were to converge the Spirit Status, it would only bestow it based on the Merit Sakura has established at her current point in time and the information she carries.

And Sakura's future experiences, as well as those demonic natures and the like, would disappear due to the convergence of the six-year-old Sakura.

If that were the case, the demonic nature accumulated by other Sakuras in countless desperate futures would be wasted.

And what Algol wants Su Nian to bestow upon Sakura is this kind of special Spirit Status.

To converge the desperate futures of parallel worlds, converge them into a single one, and then bestow the initial Spirit Status.

Such a Spirit Status, even after arriving in Little Garden, would not be inferior to those of the royal families or Demigods.

After all, a very important indicator of Spirit Status is time density; in other words, it is the density of your existence as observed across Infinite parallel worlds.

And it is obviously impossible for Little Garden Central to do something as energy-wasting as observing every single possibility of every person.

The object of Little Garden's observation is only Human History; nameless people are not worthy of being recorded into Human History.

Therefore, to be precise, time density is the density of your existence within Human History, based on the possibilities of you having made an impact across countless parallel worlds.

And converging it in advance is equivalent to having already organized your own report and delivered it into the hands of Little Garden Central.

When observing the world later and determining Merit, you will naturally have a certain advantage when the Spirit Status is bestowed again.

"You don't need to worry about that, Little Algol will tell you."

Algol said proudly; this is indeed something only an ancient being like her would know.

To be precise, what Algol is telling Su Nian is a technique for bestowing a Spirit Status, created by referencing how Little Garden Central converges and bestows Spirit Status.
