"Wait, girl, are you trying to create a god?"
Himeko stared in astonishment as the entire cauldron began operating and giving off a faint, multicolored glow. She went numb.
"If I'm making a Bangboo, naturally I've got to make the cutest one~"
"Incidentally, there's a slight difference between the cutest and the fiercest, but not much. Hilarious, isn't it~"
Theresa folded her arms cheerfully and threw in a corny joke. The catgirl was also looking forward to seeing what sort of Bangboo she would refine.
Gradually, the multicolored glow from the enormous Artifact Refining cauldron grew more conspicuous, drawing many people's eyes.
"Whoa, what's that catgirl up to this time?"
"No clue!"
"This catgirl might be the most absurd girl I've ever seen in my life. Most girls are pretty as flowers, all sweet, soft, and cute."
"Not her. She could conquer everything with her looks, but she insists on being absurd instead. I don't get it..."

A man from Natlan stared in astonishment
