Dragon Ball: Saiyan's Gourmet Journey

Chapter 615 The resurgence of the Nine-Tails is all due to the laziness of you native gods. Wiz arrives, and late-night embraces.
To stop the Nine-Tails from reviving, you need to understand why it wants to revive in the first place.

The resurgence of the Nine-Tails in the Food Souls world is due to the fact that the purification system at the bottom of the Great Spirit Vein, Naraku, cannot keep up with the rate at which sinful souls fall in, potentially causing a blockage or stagnation in the entire reincarnation system.

In order to prevent the reincarnation system from being blocked by the evil souls, the Nine-Tails, a great demon, appeared, intending to devour the souls of all mankind to solve the problem that the purification speed of the Naraku purification system could not keep up with the rate at which the evil souls fell and became corrupted.

"In other words, as long as the evil souls that are gradually overflowing in the Great Spirit Vein Naraku are dealt with, there will be no reason for the Nine-Tails to revive."

We, as guardians of the Great Spirit Vein, are aware of this problem, but we have no solution to it.

However, we have no solution, but perhaps someone as powerful as Lord Broly has one.

The old-looking local deity is now truly confessing whatever comes to mind.

"So, does this mean I've cleansed Naraku's sinful soul?"

Broly pointed behind him to the huge hole he had forcibly created with his spiritual energy and asked.

"You have only shattered the evil soul, but the malice and resentment have not been purified. They have only been crushed into smaller pieces of malice and resentment, and they still cannot re-enter the normal cycle of the great spiritual veins. Therefore, it is not a true purification..."

The old earth god said cautiously, but in fact, if Broly destroyed the entire Great Spirit Vein and Naraku, it could indeed prevent the Nine-Tails' revival. After all, without the reincarnation system, how could the purification process within the reincarnation system continue to start?

"Purification..."

This wasn't something Broly was good at, but he knew who was, and that person was probably sleeping while cuddling his own body right now.

"Yes, I should have a solution. Let's talk about the resurrection incident."

The old earth god: "..."

Are you still concerned about being resurrected?

"I'm sorry, we really don't know. Perhaps, Lord Broly, you should give up?"

As the old earth god said this, his heart was pounding; he was prepared to be killed again.

As it turned out, Broly merely glanced at Him, apologized for his sudden attack on them that evening, left a message saying he would come to visit again later, and then departed.

Back in her own body, Aqua was fast asleep.

The slight earthquake hadn't woken her; Broly was held tightly in her arms.

Feeling the soft touch of his master on his face, Broly didn't wake her. He raised his hand and hugged his master's somewhat plump waist, then pressed his body tightly against Aqua's embrace.

Aqua slept soundly until dawn, only to wake up from her pillow, which was damp from drooling in her sleep, feeling a dampness on her face.

Good morning, Master Aqua~

At 6:11 a.m., Broly looked up and greeted his sleeping master.

"Has the resurrection been resolved? Were you deceived by the local indigenous god?"

Aqua wiped the drool from the corner of her mouth, rolled over, and pulled her disciple onto her lap, asking a question.

"There shouldn't be any deception. It's just that the soul that was put back needs to be dealt with."

Broly rested his head on Aqua's chest and recounted his experiences in the Great Spirit Vein the previous night. Finally, he asked his goddess master beneath him, "Master Aqua, I wonder if you could help purify the Naraku of this world?"

"This is no problem."

Although having to work during the holidays made Aqua a little unhappy, it was, after all, her only adorable disciple's request.

"However, this is clearly a stopgap measure. Instead of just treating the symptoms, I have a suggestion that addresses both the symptoms and the root cause."

Aqua said.

"Eh?"

Broly looked at the goddess master in surprise.

"What, you don't believe your master?"

Aqua noticed his surprised look and said with some dissatisfaction.

"No, I am very willing to believe you, Master Aqua."

Broly answered immediately.

Of course, whether what one thinks in one's heart and what one says are actually the same is unknown.

After all, her goddess-like mentor is always very reliable when it comes to being unreliable.

"Hmph, you don't dare to meet my eyes, you must have some doubts about me as your master."

Aqua sat up, while Broly sat on his master's lap.

"Broly, listen to me carefully. No matter what, I am the chief god of the heavens. The job that I command most of the goddesses and angels is to guide the souls of the dead to reincarnation."

Therefore, when it comes to things like reincarnation, there's definitely no native god in this world who can compare to me, understand?

"Uh, I understand, Master Aqua, but what is your suggestion that addresses both the symptoms and the root cause?"

"Hmph, of course we'll redo this world's outdated and backward reincarnation system!"

In Aqua's view, compared to her celestial realm, where goddesses and angels receive every soul and determine their fate—whether they ascend to heaven or are reborn as humans or animals—this world's great spiritual veins and Naraku's reincarnation system are utterly inefficient. (In the Konosuba world, the souls of evil people should go to hell.)

Of course, more importantly, she, the goddess of the heavens, can only be a lazy bum in the heavens, while the native gods of this world can lie flat on their world's reincarnation system and continue their existence without doing anything.

This situation of receiving a salary without having to do any work made her, the chief god who was the king of slacking off in the heavenly realm, feel envious, jealous, and resentful—or rather, indignant as a benevolent goddess.

Therefore, Aqua decided to create an ultimate 007 platform for the native gods of this world, one that would allow them to shine, just like the celestial realm before she met Broly, when there was no holiday.

. . . .

"Why can't Naraku in this world purify the souls of evil as fast as the souls of evil are falling? Is it because of Naraku?"

No, it's because of you lazy, good-for-nothing native gods!
If you could help your Naraku distinguish which souls are guilty of heinous crimes requiring severe punishment and cleansing, and which are minor sins that only require mild punishment and discipline, then the purification process for uniformly processed souls wouldn't be so inefficient.

"Ah, does our Earth God need help with this kind of work?"

"Clap~"

Aqua pulled out a stack of folding fans from somewhere and slapped the land god who had asked her a question right in the face.

"Oops~"

The land god immediately crouched down, clutching his head, clearly hurt by Aqua's fan.

"Are you questioning the words of me, a noble celestial deity who has condescended to descend to the mortal realm and come here to provide guidance to you native gods of the lower realm?" Aqua, who arrived deep within the Great Spirit Vein that very night, surveyed the surroundings with disdain, and no native god of the Great Spirit Vein dared to meet her gaze.

"Change it! Change it for me! Optimize all of these crude reincarnation mechanisms that rely on the instincts of spirits to queue for reincarnation."

You guys are here to work as front desk staff, evaluating the merits and demerits of each soul's life, and investigating the annual shortage of souls needed for reincarnation. Souls without sins should be given priority to be reincarnated.

Furthermore, since you only have a hellish realm here, but no heavenly realm, we have designated a region within your great spiritual vein as a place for those highly virtuous souls to recuperate, which will also alleviate the burden on the reincarnation of souls.

What? You don't have enough manpower? Can't you hire more? Are you all just good at eating and not good at working? There are so many souls in the Great Spirit Vein, not one of them is conscious. Can't you turn those conscious souls into your assistants?

Angel? Bah! You dare call yourself an angel? In our heavenly realm, someone like you would need to spend hundreds more years studying at the Heavenly Academy. Do you even know what it means to be spiritually grounded and serve the souls of the deceased? You have no self-awareness whatsoever, and no spirit of dedication whatsoever!

I'm not referring to any one of you, but to all of you. In my eyes, you're all bloodsuckers of the great spiritual vein, trash that should be swept deep into the garbage heap..."

Aqua seems to blame the world's native gods for her having to work during her vacation, but under the guise of giving guidance, she launches a tirade against the immortal beings and land gods of the Food Soul world.

Each of the immortal beings and earth gods had never suffered such humiliation, but they dared not speak out, for this domineering celestial deity was even more formidable than Broly standing behind her.

Before the Great Spirit Vein and Naraku were destroyed, Broly could only kill them one by one. But Aqua's Great Purification Jutsu, which started at zero frames, could actually format them into the purest unconscious spirits.

These land gods, who had long since developed self-awareness, none of them wanted to be formatted and turned into blank, empty-headed spirits. However, under the reprimand of Aqua, a great figure in the heavens, they busied themselves in the great spiritual vein, mainly working on transforming it.

Of course, Aqua was only responsible for providing general guidance; she didn't concern herself with the details and technical aspects.

If any local deity came to ask her, she would immediately berate him: "What? How would I know the specifics of how to transform it? I'm not some native god of the lower realm, but a noble celestial deity. Figure out these details yourselves. I only care about the results!"

The goddess's carefree attitude was on full display. If an acquaintance saw this, they could only exclaim: "Truly worthy of being called Aqua!"
The Nine-Tails' problem has been solved, but the issue of its resurrection remains unresolved. According to Aqua, she is only responsible for guiding the reincarnation of the dead, not for dissecting their spirits.

While she can bestow special abilities upon the dead, what Bai Rui needs here is the technique of separating souls, which is not her area of ​​expertise.

Fortunately, there are also wives who study souls in the group chat room. Just because Master Aqua can't solve it doesn't mean other wives can't. There are strong ones like the only god in the Fanlou Star Cup world, and weak ones like Aozaki Touko who has reached the Root by relying on her Saiyan power...

However, the one who ultimately came to help solve the resurrection problem was the lich Wiz, who had closed the magic item shop in Axel City.

Rewinding to this morning, after Broly posted a message in the group chat asking for help with separating souls, Youyou replied to him directly.

"As for matters concerning the soul, then it really comes down to Miss Wiz. After all, she is a lich, the highest-ranking undead, a master who manipulates souls..."

Wiz was stunned when she saw this message, because she was still hesitating about how to edit the message so that Broly wouldn't think that she offered to help because she wanted to go to another world to play.

"Yoyo~"

"No need to thank me, Professor Wiz. After all, with your timid personality, if I don't speak up for you, the opportunity will be snatched away by others."

As expected, under Yuuyu's words, Aozaki Touko left a meme of "What a pity, one step too late," and asked Broly if he had any extra Sesshō-seki stones, to put one in her Crystal Palace for research. Fanlou then commented below that if Wiz couldn't solve the problem and needed her help, she could tag her again.

And just like that, Yoyo hit a home run assist, and after finishing her day's business at the magic item shop, Wiz came over.

"Teacher Wiz~"

Broly was also happy to see Miss Lich and went up to her to give her a hug.

"Eh?"

Embraced by the giant Broly spirit, Wiz's head was completely fuzzy.

The young man before me bears a striking resemblance to Broly.

But how come my student has grown so much in just a few months?

My whole body was embraced, as if I were the youngest one.

"Don't be surprised, this is Broly's soul form. His soul seems to have grown up before his body."

Aqua was a little annoyed. This was originally a secret she kept to herself, but because of the need to solve the resurrection problem, she now had to share it with Wiz.

"Let me tell you, don't reveal this in the group chat. Also, don't try to steal my cute disciple when I'm not around, you stinky lich with such big breasts, do you understand?"

Aqua grabbed Wiz by the collar and issued her a gag order and a code of conduct.

Hugging and cuddling are fine, but deeper, more meaningful communication on a deeper level is not.

"Lady Aqua, I understand. Please stop pulling on my collar, or the buttons will fall off."

"Clap~"

As soon as he said the button would fall off, it did, revealing the snow-white Lich Mountain to Broly.

Miss Lich gasped and instinctively clutched her chest.

The scene, however, is even more alluring than if it weren't covered up.

"Woof~"

Bai Rui called out from the side and then stuck out Tsuchimiya Mai's tongue towards Wiz, who was bending over to come to his side.

It smelled a pleasant scent from Wiz. If its owner hadn't stopped it, Bai Rui would have loved to pounce on it and lick it, just like a dog licking a bone.

Of course, whether this second-generation Nine-Tailed Fox can defeat Wiz and lick the soul of the highest-ranking undead lich in the Konosuba world is another matter entirely.

It'll probably be frozen solid, or perhaps blown to smithereens by explosive magic.

"She's the one who's causing my separation, isn't she? Then I'll begin my investigation now..."

Wiz used ice magic to freeze and fix the missing button, then looked at the beautiful dog Bai Rui drooling over him and said to Broly in his youth form.

"No rush. This is Professor Wiz's first time in another world. Why don't we just wander around here for a bit?"

Broly looked at Youyou's private message and said to Wiz.

"Eh!?"

"Of course, Master Aqua is with us too."

Late at night, on a bustling street in Tokyo, Broly's young spirit was surrounded by two women.

His spirit was very solid, so solid that ordinary people could see it with the naked eye.

Although it wasn't as lively as during the day, it still made Wiz very happy.

Of course, some people were also attracted by the beauty of the goddess master and the lich teacher.

But upon seeing that their male companion was a muscular man who looked like a small giant, they all clearly realized that while beauty was alluring, life was more precious, and no one dared to disturb them.
