Chapter 361 It's time to eat Aqua.
After finishing soaking in the hot spring, the time was still nowhere to be found; Darkness couldn't find it anywhere outside the towel.
Huihui probably knows, but she doesn't want to tell him.
This is not like her at all. Logically speaking, shouldn't she die with us?
But it doesn't matter if he doesn't know; he'll find it himself later.
Back in their room, Huihui and the others followed Shichen to his room.
However, perhaps because the mark was known, Huihui was too embarrassed to check the time.
"Aren't you going back to your own rooms?" Shichen asked Youyou.
"Can we...can we stay here for a while?" Youyou asked softly.
"Of course!"
"Very good!"
"Youyou, be careful. Shichen might want to know where your mark is."
"Hmm... if you want to know the exact time, I can tell him," Youyou said, blushing.
"You...that's our mark, how can you show it to Shichen?"
"But the time doesn't matter."
"You... never mind." Huihui shook her head helplessly.
"Look at Youyou, and then look at you. So what if I found out? What's there to be ashamed of?" Shichen said disappointedly. "How... how do you know about the shameful points of our Crimson Demon Clan... Youyou is just a bit different."
Compared to ordinary Crimson Demons, Youyou is indeed quite different. While other Crimson Demons take pride in their chuunibyou (middle school syndrome), she is ashamed of it.
However, for the time of day, leisurely pace is the normal course.
"I've already touched it, are you still afraid of being seen?"
"Wait, this kind of thing!" Huihui looked at Youyou in a panic.
"Huihui? Can you tell me what happened?" Youyou looked at Huihui with a forced smile.
"Um, this... the time..." Huihui looked to the time for help.
"Just tell Youyou, it's not like it's something you can't tell her."
"How could I possibly say that!"
"Shichen, what's going on?" Youyou pouted, looking at Shichen unhappily.
Of course she knew where Huihui's mark was, and Shichen had said he had touched it, so there was no need to think too much about what the two of them had secretly done behind her back.
"Well... come here."
"Wait, when will you arrive?" Huihui asked, her face flushed.
"There's no way to hide it now anyway," Shi Chen said, shrugging.
"Hmm..." Megumin couldn't help but look at Aqua and the others, only to find that they didn't care about her at all.
Actually...
When Shi Chen and Youyou walked over, she leaned close to her ear and explained.
It's nothing more than helping Huihui develop, and then because one hand is enough, the other hand just runs around uncontrollably.
There's nothing to hide, especially from Youyou.
"Oh, I see. Shichen is a boy, so it's nothing... But I can do it too," Youyou said shyly in a low voice.
"I understand." Shi Chen blinked as he looked at Youyou's rosy cheeks.
"Um..." Youyou lowered her head shyly.
"Hey! What are you two whispering about?" Huihui, who was still feeling embarrassed, immediately noticed that something was wrong.
"It's nothing. Speaking of which, we haven't had dinner yet, have we? How about we go have dinner first? Let's see if the food at this hotel is any good."
"Let's hurry up and go, I'm starving!" Aqua immediately chimed in.
"Me too! Shichen, bring my Coke!" Frillie exclaimed excitedly.
"I've always carried it with me."
"Hurry, hurry!"
"Wait! You still haven't told me what you two were whispering about!"
"There's nothing there~" Youyou replied.
Do you think I believe that?
"That's still better than you secretly letting the time help you develop, right?"
"Well..
Youyou's words left Huihui speechless.
The hotel's dining area was on the first floor, but there were no other guests. The food was very plentiful, with seafood, but it was larger than the previous hotel.
After choosing their food and finding a seat, Shichen and Aqua sat down together to enjoy their meal.
"By the way, this town seems to be in danger," Aqua suddenly said.
"What's wrong?"
"Well... Shichen, you should know about my purification abilities, right?"
"Um."
"The hot spring at the previous inn was easy to purify; it only took a few seconds. But the hot spring here is a bit slow; it took me a long time to purify it."
"I see." Shi Chen nodded gently.
"Wait! What purification? Aqua, what are you talking about?" Megumin realized the key point.
"Did I forget to tell you? As long as I come into contact with liquid, I can completely purify it into water. After all, I am the goddess of water," Aqua said proudly.
"What? So you mean the hot springs here have turned into ordinary water because of you?"
"Oh, this..."
"Fine! I knew the hot spring wasn't working, it's all your fault!" Huihui said angrily.
"Ahem, well, don't worry about that for now, there's something more important to do."
"Don't change the subject!"
"Megumi, let Aqua finish speaking first," Tokiko reassured her.
"Okay..." Huihui obediently continued to gnaw on the shrimp.
"So, the fact that my purification process took so long means the hot springs here are severely polluted. And isn't there a lot of talk about the deterioration of the hot spring quality throughout the town? This must be the work of the Demon King's army, who see my Axis Order as a threat! Hmph! They probably can't defeat us head-on, so they're trying to seize the Axis Order's most important source of wealth."
That is, hot springs!
It has to be said that Aqua does have some brains; although it might be a wild guess, it's pretty close to the truth.
"Oh, I see. That sounds scary," Huihui said dismissively.
"Trust me!"
Darkness couldn't help but ask, "It's just that the quality of the hot springs has deteriorated, so why are you bringing up the Demon King's army?"
"That's right."
Huihui then added, "Is it possible that many people who couldn't stand the harassment from the Axis Cult did this?"
"How could an ordinary person accomplish such a feat? It must have been done by the Demon King's army, since my Axis Cult poses the greatest threat to them!"
"Trust me, come with me to protect this town, will you help me?"
Aqua showed a rare display of righteousness, but unfortunately, Megumin and the others didn't take it seriously.
"I wanted to go for a walk or something, but you've ruined my plans today, so I can't," Huihui said decisively.
"Well, I've also come to understand how terrifying the Axis cultists are these past two days, so I won't keep you company any longer," Darkness added.
"How could you say that! Taking a walk isn't that important! And Darkness, where's your sense of justice?"
"This..." Darkness looked away as he met Aqua's burning gaze.
She could help, but Aqua's claims were too vague and unsubstantiated, and besides, she was usually so unreliable.
The credibility is really low.
"Time..." Aqua looked at the time with teary eyes.
Only he could help her, since Youyou only listened to him, and Frilian didn't care about anything else.
"Alright, alright, I'll help you." Tokiko really couldn't stand Aqua's pitiful state.
"That's great! Time is so kind to me!" Aqua was so excited she almost pounced on him and hugged him.
"Huh? Toki, are you really going to help Aqua? What if it's just her imagination?" Megumin couldn't help but ask.
"No, Aqua is telling the truth. There are indeed members of the Demon King's army here."
"What? Really?" Darkness immediately tensed up.
"Why would I need to lie to you?"
"No, we believe you. In that case, I'll help you too," Darkness said seriously.
"Then I'll help too."
"I'll help too!"
Everyone had to help, except for Frillie, who was happily drinking Coke.
"You guys! Why do you only believe in the time?! I'm the goddess of water!" Aqua looked very aggrieved.
"It's alright, it's alright. They believe in me, and I believe in you. Isn't it all the same?" Shi Chen comforted her.
"It seems so... the timing was perfect after all!" Aqua smiled brightly.
His smile is kind of charming... This guy is really good-looking.
"So what exactly are we going to do?" Huihui asked.
"It's simple. We'll continue sightseeing in this town and look for the Demon King's army while we're at it. Aqua can just continue purifying the hot springs," Shichen said.
"Are we just going to wander around aimlessly like this? Hey, Shichen, could you come with me tomorrow? I didn't release today."
"Huihui asked in a low voice.
"Come on, let's have a go?" Darkness exclaimed excitedly.
"It's explosion magic." Shi Chen smacked her head in annoyance.
"Okay, one more time, harder."
Shi Chen ignored her and replied to Hui Hui, "Okay."
"Great!" Huihui shook her head happily.
Explosion magic is bound to cause a commotion. Although the people in this town are all a bit abnormal, they are not like those in Axel, who are already used to it.
However, this was exactly the effect the timing was intended to achieve: to attract the attention of the Demon King's army so that Aqua could purify the hot springs.
Since Aqua finally wanted to do something, he naturally wanted to fully support her, even though he felt a little uncomfortable that it was helping the Axis Cult.
Perfect timing. Once this is resolved, I'll take some reward from Aqua.
Aqua was now completely off guard with him, and he couldn't resist the urge to fully experience her.
It shouldn't be considered illegal, right?
