"..." Chen Luo shrugged.
Could Chen Luo fail to understand the Puppeteer's thoughts, yet still fail to understand Sparkle's?
His CPU had nearly burned out at the Puppeteer's place from thinking about what kind of trial it was. He had to find someone to suffer alongside him.
It was like a food chain: big fish ate little fish, and little fish ate shrimp.
Sure enough, happiness was built upon others' suffering. That was part of Elation.
His old man had once said that Elation should be used to deal with Elation.
And one of the true meanings of Elation was information gaps.
Sparkle was most troublesome because she could take on different appearances, gather vast amounts of information by impersonating different people, and use that information to obtain even more.
Chen Luo had access to more information than Sparkle.
The Puppeteer might have had more information than Chen Luo.
The same was true of the gap in strength.
"Beep beep!" Just as Chen Luo was about to continue shopping with Aili, his communicator chimed. After opening it, he found a message from Vill-V.
Vill-V had invited Chen Luo somewhere. She had landed him a huge commission.
"???"
A commission?
Chen Luo suddenly had a bad feeling.
Everyone in the bar knew that Chen Luo received rewards for completing missions. If Vill-V was talking about a commission, she had to mean a request. And a huge commission...
"Let's go see what this huge commission Vill-V landed me actually is." Chen Luo waved his communicator at Aili.
"Sure." Aili nodded.
"As long as you're with me, it doesn't matter where we go." Aili said.
"Really?"
"Really."
"Then let's go to Gensokyo sometime."
"Then forget it." Aili unusually rejected Chen Luo's suggestion.
"Why?"
"Because there are too many beautiful girls in Gensokyo." Aili
