"Trouble?"

Hoshino responded to Nian's question, "That's wrong. It's them who should be in trouble. I'm just sitting here. They have to negotiate for days to find someone to talk to me."

"That's true."

It's only been so many years since we came out, and now even gods can openly accept people's worship?

Can their fragile bodies and minds endure it?

Miss Kallen takes Nian to visit Shrine. The mountains of Lungmen Dollars are bright blue and very beautiful, but Nian feels conflicted. No matter how strong the love for money is, it should disappear completely as long as it experiences currency abolition. So why...?

"Don't think about it, I just like it. Having money here can prevent inflation, right?"

It seems to be some kind of quirk. Who doesn't have a quirk?

Without obsession, the spiritual body of a living being would not be able to support such a long period of time. It is the railway track that supports a person from endless years, and it has special significance.

If you love money so much, you must have been very poor before, right?

Hoshino stretched out. "Meeting and establishing contact with me is probably a huge political achievement for the Yan Kingdom, which is why we are involved in such a long discussion. I can't wait any longer. How about I appoint someone?"

"You are so brave that you actually try to interfere in internal affairs."

Nian yawned.

"It's not an intervention, I'm just inviting a Yan Kingdom government official I know to come over for a cup of tea and finish the work." Hoshino lowered his head, "But having said that, there seems to be only one person I know who can be called an official?"

Miss Jingzhe.

She also rested her head on the witch's white silk thighs, she was one of her own.

The most important thing is that Jingzhe is not from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, but is responsible for judicial and criminal law. It is really unprofessional to find a discharge judge to do diplomatic work. What Hoshino likes most is this kind of unprofessionalism, which means that she can fish in troubled waters.

"That's it."

Nian looked at Miss Jingzhe who was sitting upright with great interest, and from time to time he would point with his bright red finger, and there would be a snap sound, thunder and fire from heaven and earth, and one of Jingzhe's pale yellow hairs would instantly disappear into the air.

Quite interesting.

Miss Nian clicked again and again, making a crackling sound, and the air was filled with the smell of burning protein.

"Stop playing."

The pale pink light flashed away, and the air was filled with the fragrance of cherry blossoms. When the blade light came, Nian took it with his bare hands, but a strand of hair was cut off by the "just beautiful" cherry blossoms.

Nian clapped his hands, feeling resentful.

"It's too much. Even if I don't give him spicy food, he still beats me."

"Your Excellency."

Jingzhe finally came to the rescue. Jingzhe was a little touched. After all, she had also heard about the legendary Nian Beast. She had heard the legends spread since she was a child. She seemed to have returned to the childhood when her parents used legends to scare her and she did not dare to sleep alone.

Too scary.

"Nian, please don't treat bullying children as fun. It's not funny."

"Alas."

Miss Nian is full of confusion. In her eyes, the witch is like a human being who cares about Originium Slug's emotions. It is not a specific concern for cats and dogs, but a concern for the entire group.

It's not that Nian wants to complain.

Is there something wrong with this person?

After being driven away in 2008, Hoshino sat down calmly, holding tea in hand and talking face to face with Jingzhe. Censorate, who was selfless and unfailing, looked a little shocked at this time.

Hoshino took a sip of tea and said, "You came a little late. I made a request in the morning, but you arrived even after dinner time."

"Because diplomacy is Ministry of Rites's job, and Censorate is in charge of penalties and laws. It had nothing to do with me originally, but now it does. I was appointed by the speed of light to the high position of Court of State Ceremonial... Now the people outside probably regard me as a thorn in their side."

Indeed, the Yan Kingdom messenger was discussing how to gain points in his political career, but all of a sudden everything turned into a bubble, and he must have been itching his teeth.

But hate comes after hate. This meeting will do more good than harm to Jingzhe.

There are some beings who don't need to provide any substantial benefits. As long as they look at you or say a word to you, the changes they bring are earth-shattering.

"Is that the legendary Nian Beast?"

"Don't worry, she is just a picky person who comes here to get food. Only Raiden Mei can stand her. I can't stand her anyway, and I will kick her out sooner or later."

Don't rush.

Jingzhe wants to say this, because Nian Beast staying in Shrine is the safest for the people of the Yan Kingdom.

"Are you still afraid of this?"

Forget it.

"Ahem, let's stop talking about old times and greetings... I'm not a professional diplomat, I'm just a temporary substitute hired by Court of State Ceremonial. Laying everything out on the table is my style."

"Is it like laying out the evidence one by one during a trial?"

Hoshino nodded and expressed appreciation. She really wanted to hear Yan Kingdom's attitude.

"We hope that you will protect Yan Kingdom."

"Ah this."

When hearing such words, Jingzhe observed that the witch's first reaction was one of astonishment, and then deep fear. Hoshino put down the teacup, looked around, and said mysteriously:

"Yan Kingdom did this kind of thing, did he want to harm me?"

Aren't you some immortals? You've boasted so many times, consciously or unintentionally, you're trying to raise the standards of the immortals. Why can't you learn to remember?

"Sigh, we may need a visible and tangible guardian. An invisible existence is still too ethereal and does not make people feel at ease. On the contrary... it makes it difficult to sleep and eat well."

Hoshino shakes his head like a rattle.

"If possible, I don't even want to set foot on the land of the Yan Kingdom, because the immortals are so... scary."

I declined the kindness of Jingzhe and even Yan Kingdom, but in order to prevent Jingzhe from returning without success, Hoshino planned to throw a Xuanyuan Sword to her on the way back to show that the immortal is watching you quietly.

Yan Kingdom people really don't have a long memory!

"Is this going to start?"

Miss Nian crossed her arms and watched with interest as the witch beat her breasts and beat her feet. Hoshino lost her appearance, and her face was full of panic. She didn't look like she was pretending at all.

"Nian, let me ask you, where does your furthest memory extend? Put aside that boring brother-sister fight."

"Fight."

Nian shook his head. "What's wrong? Of course, the thing that will last the longest in my memory is the thing that impresses me the most. The thing that impressed me the most is disgust. I'm tired of brothers and sisters fighting with each other."

"Then have you ever thought about why you lost your memory?"

Hoshino shook his head.

"I don't know. Of course you don't know. You will only regard it as a natural fading of memory. With that kind of fear in your heart, how can you walk on this land in such a leisurely manner? Alas..."

"..."

Does she mean that she was frightened and lost her memory?
