Chapter 140

Zofia wanted to speak, but the burning pain in her buttocks made her gasp.

It was extremely improper to rub someone's buttocks in front of others; Zofia's upbringing prevented her from doing such a thing.

It really hurts...

So, having no other choice, Zofia simply pretended to be surprised and took a few steps back.

Until her back pressed against the windowsill, until her round, full buttocks were pressed into an oval shape against the wall.

The coolness from the cold tiles seeped through the fabric of her corset and onto her skin, instantly making Zofia's burning buttocks feel a little better.

"Call..."

Zofia breathed a sigh of relief, but didn't forget the important matter. "You are that... that... uh..."

Oh no, Zofia suddenly realized that she seemed to have absolutely no idea what this Evil God's name was...

She can't possibly keep talking about Evil God and Slaanesh all the time, can she?

So Zofia, quick-witted, said, "Although I don't know your name yet, thank you for responding to my call... I just want to know, is Centaurea still alive?"

But the hand did not respond to her question; instead, it made a stroking motion as if rubbing her chin.

After waiting for a long time, Zofia, who was a little impatient, couldn't hold back any longer and asked, "Are you still there? Do I need to pay a price for you to respond to me?"

"Oh, no, that's not it."

Chen Ran finally spoke, but what he said was, "I'm just a little curious, Aunt, you're here rubbing against the wall tiles like a lazy bear scratching an itch. When you leave, will there be two far-off butt prints left on the tiles?"

"I told you not to call me aunt, I'm only in my twenties! Call me sister—oh wait, no..."

Zofia reacted strongly when she heard the term 'aunt'.

But this was purely a subconscious reaction, because that's how she used to scold her two nieces.

Although Zofia reacted quickly and immediately covered her mouth with her hand.

But...

"How... how did you know the title 'Aunt'...?"

Zofia discovered the blind spot.

Did Centaurea say that to this Evil God?

That shouldn't be the case; Centaurea has never met Maria.

So, does this Evil God know a lot? Could it be the ability to read minds?

"I thought you'd complain about the 'butt mark on the tiles' first, but I didn't expect you to react more strongly to being called 'Aunt'?"

Zofia: "..."

Upon hearing this, Zofia blushed and couldn't help but spit inwardly.

Centaurea was right after all; this Evil God was no respectable being at all, and all he said were lewd remarks.

"Rest assured."

Chen Ran seemed amused by Zofia's reaction.

In a good mood, Chen Ran spoke up, "What's wrong, Aunt? Are you worried that something happened to that Little Platinum Centaurea? She's perfectly fine."

"Real?"

Seeing that her question had finally been answered, Zofia no longer cared about whether it was proper or immoral.

Zofia was also curious about where Centaurea got her nickname "Little Platinum".

Why would I lie to you?

Chen Ran said, "I even advised that Little Platinum go out and get some fresh air, instead of staying cooped up at home all day. But what did she do? She just said, 'Can't I enjoy myself?' and then she just lay in bed all day playing on her phone and eating takeout."

Zofia: "..."

No, the way you're talking makes it sound like Centaurea is some kind of troublesome, rebellious daughter...

However, what Chen Ran said sounded too much like something Centaurea would do, so Zofia finally breathed a sigh of relief.

That makes sense. Whether it's Evil God or an extraterrestrial Demons, why would someone of Chen Ran's status and position lie to her?

Having received the answer she wanted and confirmed Centaurea's safety, Zofia finally calmed down.

But even in that moment of calm, Zofia immediately sensed something was wrong again.

Unlike Centaurea, Zofia is far superior to Centaurea in terms of vision, perspective, and ability to recognize and utilize talent.

So before, I only heard Centaurea complaining about it, but now Zofia has seen the real person...

"Excuse my intrusion..."

Zofia asked with a slightly subtle, inquisitive, and tentative tone, "Are you... really Evil God?"

"I never said I was Evil God, did I?"

Chen Ran joked.

Zofia: "..."

Really.

Zofia read through so many legends and stories, but none of them matched Chen Ran's personality.

To put it nicely, Chen Ran seems a bit too easy to please.

To put it bluntly, Chen Ran is more like a god of amusement than a so-called Evil God.

What is the God of Joy? He is someone who finds people for fun.

He takes your soul?

If you die, where will He find fun again?

"In that case..."

Zofia asked, "Why did Centaurea say you were Evil God?"

"That's the setting that Little Platinum wrote for me."

Chen Ran said, "I think it's pretty good, so I'll just use it directly."

Zofia: "?"

"If I had met you first, Aunt, and you thought I was a great and righteous benevolent god, I would probably be saying, 'Poor child, come here, let your Dad take a look,' and then heal the injury on your left hand."

Zofia: "..."

These words made Zofia subconsciously reach out and rub her left wrist.

Yes, Zofia is actually left-handed, but she was crippled by a scheme orchestrated by the former Commercial Federation and the Knights' Tournament.

Although the words "Heal the wound on your left hand" made Zofia's heart flutter for a moment.

But this also made Zofia realize something.

"In other words..."

Zofia's tone was subtle. "Centaurea said something about sacrificing souls, the resurgence of Evil God, and the devastation of life... but is it all just her own imagination?"

"Yes."

Chen Ran said, "Since that Little Platinum thinks that way, and I happen to be bored, I'll play a role-playing game with her."

Zofia: "..."

** Centaurea, what's with all that imagination?!
