Dedicated Customer Service
Death God departed in a cheerful mood.
He walked until he reached a place beyond the perception range of the Spring God and the Life Goddess before stopping.
He looked down at his palm and sighed.
It seems there's no going back now.
As the saying goes, it's easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality; this is exactly his current situation.
The Death God once worked tirelessly year-round has disappeared.
As Death God thought this, the eerie, cold wind around him dissipated. He raised his hand and casually tied his long hair, which reached his waist, into a loose bun, then took out a bone hairpin from his sleeve and inserted it into the bun.
The entire deity's aura instantly shifted from "a sinister and unapproachable Death God reaper" to "a carefree and idle slacker."
"Little Bone, come out."
As soon as the words of the Death God fell, a bare skeleton appeared out of thin air in front of him.
Little Bone was the same height as him, and her body was nothing but a pile of white bones.
At this moment, two clusters of eerie blue phosphorescent flames flickered in the other party's two empty eye sockets.
It was staring blankly at its owner.
Death God produced a large black cloak, the kind with a hood, and draped it over Little Bone, covering his bare skeletal frame completely. He then conjured a super-sized Scythe with an equally intimidating design and shoved it between Little Bone Gu's white finger bones.
Don't be fooled by Death God's seemingly carefree wanderings these days; he has a purpose. Traveling across various planets, he's discovered that this is exactly how humanity imagines Death God.
A mysterious figure shrouded in a black cloak held a massive Scythe in his hand.
They call this kind of Scythe the Death God Scythe.
--I have to say, it's actually pretty cool.
Death God took two steps back, looking Little Bone up and down. Originally just an ordinary skeleton, it had become much more mysterious after being dressed up like this, and at first glance, it was quite intimidating.
"Little Bone, I'm leaving the work to you from now on. Oh, and if Chun shows up, remember to call me, okay?"
"Death God gave the order."
Little Bone gripped the massive Scythe, taller than itself, tightly with its finger bones; the eerie blue phosphorescence flickered in its eye sockets.
"Understood, I will try my best, God."
Seeing the other party's ambition, Death God nodded in satisfaction and patted Little Bone's bare shoulder:
"Come on."
Little Bone, carrying Scythe and wearing a cloak, drifted towards the nearest planet.
Today, it officially began its year-round, no-break working life.
Death God rolled his eyes, thinking that if Little Bone couldn't handle it all, he would summon Little Bone Number Two to help.
Wuma Xiu glanced at the Life Goddess, whose mood had noticeably improved after Death God left.
He chuckled softly to himself.
--He's still like a child.
As the Spring God who raised three younger brothers, he sees the gods around him unconsciously taking on the role of the older brother, always wanting to take care of them. This habit is ingrained in him and cannot be changed.
The Life Goddess was indeed very pleased.
The matter was resolved, and that annoying Death God was gone.
She took two steps forward, then turned back, her purple-orange eyes filled with anticipation.
"Chun, I'd like to call you 'Chunchun' too, is that okay?"
The Life Goddess has recently learned a great deal from humankind.
Especially the way people address each other.
She was amazed by how particular humans are about how they address each other, and the complex and intricate system of generational titles.
After all, the Life Goddess is surrounded by gods, or at most, brothers, sisters, and cousins.
Furthermore, she discovered that humans perceive reduplicated words as more intimate. She had never noticed this before, but now that she understands, she wants to change how she addresses someone.
However, she still needs to get the other party's consent before she can do this.
"OK."
Wuma Xiu didn't care about that title at all.
Besides, don't "Chunchun," "Shengsheng," and "Mingming" sound nice?
Chunchun!
The Life Goddess's eyes lit up, and her tone became a little lighter.
She raised her hand and waved it, and a virtual screen appeared in the air in front of her.
The interface is filled with many Huahua icons.
"Chunchun, let me show you something amazing. This was invented by humans and it's called the Star Network. It has lots of interesting things on it."
Wuma Xiu looked at the strangely familiar interface, a subtle smile flashing in his eyes.
He didn't just know him; he was intimately familiar with him.
Not long ago, one of his Old Self posted updates on it.
Another Old Self, in a fit of rage, cleaved the entire Star Network into a madness.
Just tell me, are you familiar with him or not?
"I have an account on it too, let me register one for you. Humans are very fast, it'll be done in a flash."
The Life Goddess began operating with great enthusiasm, her slender fingers rapidly swiping across the virtual screen. She sent a message to the Star Network, and received a reply almost instantly, an astonishingly fast response.
Soon, a new account named "Spring God" was created.
Gods don't need things like Lightbrain.
They can directly capture Star Network signals using their Divine Power, making them a natural super terminal themselves.
Wuma Xiu used his Divine Power to probe and connected to the Star Network. Upon opening it, he found that the account had indeed been registered. The profile picture was a small light green flower, and the two large characters "Spring God" were prominently displayed in the verification section, followed by a golden official verification logo.
Not only that, the Star Network also assigned him a Deity-exclusive Customer Service.
As soon as Wuma Xiu logged in, a greeting was sent from the other side instantly.
[Dedicated Customer Service]: "Dear Lord Spring God, would you like me to give you a detailed introduction to the Star Network? Or would you like me to provide other services?"
[Spring God]: "No need, thank you for your trouble."
The dedicated customer service representative replied with a new message ten seconds later.
[Dedicated Customer Service Representative]: "It's no trouble at all; it's my pleasure to serve you."
The Life Goddess blinked her almond-shaped eyes and said with a puzzled tone, "Chunchun, how come you're so skilled?"
She remembered that when she first registered, she had to rely on the dedicated customer service representative to explain the functions step by step to understand them, but Chunchun used them so naturally, as if she had been using them for a long time.
Wuma Xiu exited the chat interface, his tone calm:
"I understood these things at a glance."
The Life Goddess, unsuspecting, smiled, her eyes crinkling into crescent moons, her tone filled with pure admiration:
"Chunchun is amazing."
