Cocolia frowned.

Having been reminded by Gwen, she had already reviewed the documents and confirmed that Belobog did indeed have another bad debt.

That is why she was so eager to accept the foreign Lostbelt Britain, even going so far as to use euphemisms in historical records to promote integration between the two sides.

The purpose is to be able to shirk responsibility when the company comes to collect debts.

This kind of thing is already quite rough. If you can't even do a proper job of separating the old from the new, wouldn't that just give people more ammunition to criticize you?

"Whether we are rough or not does not depend on whether we have done a good job, but on whether we have the power to say no."

Morgan, sitting opposite her, offered a reminder.

"That's right."

Gwen nodded and added,

"The other party is a global behemoth with tentacles reaching throughout the entire galaxy. If we are not strong enough, no matter how perfect the details are, we will still be pursued for debt."

But as long as you have enough strength, all you need is an excuse that both sides can accept.

And just so happens—

My strength and connections are enough to earn them treating me with respect.

"In that case, it's decided then."

Having received affirmation from Gwen and Morgan, Cocolia no longer hesitated and made her decision—

"During these days of celebration, spread the word to facilitate a deep alliance between the two sides as soon as possible, complete the power structure, and create a fait accompli."

"Yes, I have two special devices over there for repairing planetary environments. I'll have them sent over and repaired so they can be put into use as soon as possible."

Gwen laughed.

"The end of the Cold Wave is not the end, but rather the beginning of a new life for this planet."

The sooner the environment recovers from the effects of the Cold Wave, the more life this planet will have.

"Thanks to you, otherwise we would have had to wait for the environment to recover naturally..."

Upon hearing that Gwen was even going to take care of the environmental restoration, Cocolia felt an even stronger sense of security and couldn't help but sigh.

Is it really necessary for us to say such things to each other?

Upon hearing Gwen simply smiled calmly.

"Oh..."

The three exchanged a smile, everything understood without a word.

This planet belongs to the Belobog, and also to the future United Kingdom/city-state of Britain - Belobog, but in any case, Gwen's shadow is always behind it.

After the meeting ended, Gwen found himself with little to do for the time being.

After several purges, both systems became quite efficient, Cocolia and Morgan to smoothly advance their plans, while Gwen, the hero, could also join in the city's joyful atmosphere.

Unsurprisingly, Gwen encountered the same Astral Express Crew who were also caught up in the joyful atmosphere.

After chatting and laughing for a while, Xing suddenly asked a question that piqued the curiosity of the others—

"So, you now have a star core inside your body?"

"Oh right, back then, half of that star core was embedded in your body, but now it's completely invisible. Did it merge into your body like a star?"

March 7th also realized the problem, and her hands moved faster than her brain, already touching Gwen's chest, seemingly wanting to feel if the star core was still embedded there.

"Little March, watch your ladylike demeanor, you're almost turning into a female hooligan."

Feeling the restless little hand groping around, she smiled and reminded it.

"Cough cough..."

This is just showing concern for a friend. Do you understand what concern means?

Upon hearing this March 7th blushed and withdrew her hand as if she had been electrocuted.

"Of course, I have already felt Little March's concern."

Gwen smiled and nodded.

"Hey!"

If you keep doing this, I'm not talking to you anymore!

March 7th thought Gwen was still teasing her, and immediately pouted her little mouth in dissatisfaction.

"I'm not kidding, I really felt it."

Gwen laughed—

At this moment, there are several more shining stars in the starry sky of his Stigmata Space than before, one of which comes from the girl in front of him.

"Okay, then I'll take it seriously."

March 7th squinted at Gwen for a moment, then couldn't keep his serious expression any longer and patted Gwen on the shoulder with a smile.

"Guaranteed authentic, even more authentic than real gold."

Gwen laughed.

"So I'm not the only Star Core Spirit now?"

Miss Star Core, who was surprisingly aware of her nickname, spoke with a hint of surprise in her tone.

"Um...

Although the hierarchy of importance is somewhat misplaced, this statement isn't entirely wrong.

Gwen nodded thoughtfully; he hadn't really thought of that before.

"If I become a Star Core Spirit first, shouldn't I be considered the older sister?"

Star looked at Gwen with sparkling eyes, eager to try.

"I woke up earlier than you, so I should be the older brother."

Gwen said with a confident look.

"That...

Elder brother?"

Star didn't argue with Gwen about who was older or younger; he immediately called out.

"You're not going to fight for the title of 'older sister' anymore?"

Gwen, who thought Xing was going to argue with him about seniority, asked with a smile.

"Actually, being a younger sister is quite nice."

Xing nodded firmly.

"If you get into trouble, you can call your parents."

Snap—

Gwen to his forehead, glanced at Star who was proudly standing with his hands on his hips, and then turned his gaze to March 7th—

Your Star Core Train is causing immense harm; what kind of children have you raised?

"Don't say such strange things."

March 7th sighed helplessly, rubbing his forehead.

"Don't worry, I won't cause any trouble."

Although he often makes surprising remarks, Xing says he is still a good Xing core spirit.

"Don't worry, I won't spank you if you really cause trouble."

Gwen said in a very serious tone.

"So you two really are half-siblings, aren't you?"

On March 7th, it was discovered that the brainwaves of these two individuals unexpectedly matched.

Gwen and Stars exchanged a smile, ceasing their antics and truly getting down to business.

"Of course, if you are bullied, remember to call your parents immediately."

At least in terms of force, I am still somewhat confident.

"Um...

Since I'm your sister now, then even if it's just so I can call your parents..."

Star gave a shy smile and extended her small hand to Gwen, revealing her true intentions.

Chapter 891 Because of Trust!

"!"

Looking at Xing's small, white hand outstretched in front of him, and then at her exceptionally innocent smile, Gwyn raised an eyebrow.

It's not hard to guess what Xing wants.

The problem is...

When did this kid become so clever? He's learned to be so cunning and resourceful.

"..."

Seeing that Gwen did not respond, Star blinked her pale golden eyes again, making her appear even more innocent and charming.

Meanwhile, watching the two staring at each other, March 7th quietly clutched the hem of her clothes, unconsciously revealing a hint of nervousness.

Gwen understood immediately, rolled his eyes at the cunning strategist, and pulled out an Invitation Letter, waving it around—

"You want this?"

"Uh-huh..."

Xing's eyes lit up immediately, and he nodded repeatedly.

"Since you learned about this from March 7th, you should also know that it needs to be bound to a soul—"

Gwen handed over the Invitation Letter, his tone becoming noticeably more somber.

Are you really... ready?

"Certainly."

Xing accepted the Invitation Letter without hesitation, casually opened it, tapped twice on the materialized phone to complete the binding, and a new avatar appeared in Gwen's friend list.

The next moment, Pom-Pom sent a waving emoji.

"Oh..."

Gwen smiled and replied with a chibi-style emoji of a photo taken on March 7th, then looked at Xing, who had her eyes closed and was clearly focused on the Chat System in her mind—

"Why did you suddenly decide to ask me for this?"

He was indeed somewhat curious—

Having lost her past Remembrance and not having experienced much since waking up, Xing shouldn't have much drive right now. So why is she taking such a roundabout way to ask me for Invitation Letter today?

"This..."

Upon hearing Gwen's question, Star opened her eyes, blinking in confusion, seemingly hesitant about how to answer Gwen.

"It was just a casual question. After all, the idea of binding souls doesn't sound very appealing, does it?"

Seeing that Gwen raised his hand to signal her to relax and not to be nervous.

Will it?

Upon hearing this, Xing immediately countered with a question.

"Um...

Objectively speaking, it is indeed a very dubious claim...

March 7th, however, after hearing Gwen's question, stroked his chin thoughtfully for a moment and then retorted,

"So Gwen, why don't you rephrase your statement? Saying it like this is really easy to cause misunderstandings."

What kind of devil is in the envelope...
