Chapter 421 As long as I'm not embarrassed... (Please subscribe!)
broken!

Someone is spying on me!
After realizing the presence of the Sun Goddess, Herbert was completely distraught.

Oh open!

What are you doing here?
Haha, what a coincidence!
Uh, what a coincidence, um, hahaha... cough cough.

Herbert, with most of his body submerged in the pool, remained frozen in place, his lips twitching slightly, his eyes slowly narrowing.

He looked at his reflection in the water, unsure of what to say.

You're not just a "bald woman," you're also a "lower-headed woman"!

Get down!

It's really awful!
To prove your innocence, the only thing you can do now is announce that you were just playing with a katana...

Only a few breaths had passed in the outside world, but Herbert was internally ranting and raving.

However, complaining alone is useless, and running away won't solve the problem either.

So, what's the best way to break the awkward situation?

Have you eaten?

No, that would be too polite.

"Are you here for a bath too?"

That won't work either; that's a bit too direct.

"How about... we all soak together?"

Well, it's not that it's impossible, but it just feels a bit too impolite.

While pondering a way out of the impasse, Herbert was also distracted by complaining about the current situation.

Putting aside the fact that I went to your temple to have a romantic bath together, don't you have any problems?
You women here have no martial ethics, why are you launching a surprise attack?

Are you satisfied with the scene now?

Furthermore, the current situation...

It's not so much awkward as it is, but it's definitely awkward.

That's so damn awkward!

However, amidst his embarrassment, Herbert's doubts grew stronger.

But this situation is very strange.

This is wrong!

Shouldn't the Sun Goddess be still asleep right now?

Why are you spying on me after I take a shower?

Is your energy really that high?

Herbert dared to come here and act recklessly in the Temple of the Sun because he was certain that the Sun Goddess would not react.

Or rather, betting that He won't notice.

The darkness under the lamplight is quite thrilling.

Previously, after the consciousness of the Sun Goddess descended into Herbert's body, except for a certain Miss Harmony who hid herself, most of the secrets within his body were exposed to the eyes of the gods.

An excessively powerful physique, various blessings, and extraordinary talent... all of this fell into the eyes of the Sun Goddess.

However, this is not a one-way, transparent examination.

When the abyss gazes into you, you also gaze into the abyss.

Just as forces interact with each other, Herbert, while being observed, also glimpsed some clues from the opposite perspective.

Herbert also noticed something about the Sun Goddess's condition.

Some truths that outsiders cannot know.

For example, regarding why the sun god descended from the heavens rather than taking action in his physical form, the general consensus is that the sun god disdains to act personally.

Because He was too lazy to dirty His own hands, He used this rather arrogant method to make His chosen ones serve as tools.

In other words, in their eyes, Herbert was essentially playing the role of an outer layer... a glove in the whole incident.

But that's not the truth.

As a key figure in the affair, Herbert knew more details.

Doesn't Alberta want to just slap that annoying bug to death?
I was thinking about it.

It's not that He doesn't want to do it, but that He can't—at least, He can't do it easily.

The true form of the blazing sun has always been in a special state of slumber. What is wandering in the Holy City of Radiance now is only a wisp of its consciousness that is not yet fully asleep, half-awake and half-asleep.

Even with this wisp of will that had not yet fallen asleep, the Sun God could not guarantee that he was awake at all times, and spent most of his time wandering around the city unconsciously.

The battle with the evil god had exhausted most of His consciousness, and He would surely fall into slumber again after leaving Herbert.

These are not Herbert's own guesses; he doesn't have that much ability.

These were actually quickly transmitted to him by Nenasha while he was still outside the city after the battle, taking advantage of the moment Ebersta left.

Nenasa wouldn't lie to me, would she?

"..."

Herbert pondered for a moment, his uncertainty growing. He thought to himself, "...No, if it's Him, it's really hard to say."

What kind of bad intentions could Miss Harmony possibly have?

He just wanted to have more fun.

Just as Herbert was awkwardly frozen, pondering a solution, he felt someone tap him on the shoulder.

"Na!"

Immediately afterwards, a large face suddenly appeared very close to him.

A hungry dragon pokes its head out!

Valentina peeked out from behind the stiff-faced Herbert, puzzled, nudged him with her cheek, and asked curiously, "Hey! Why did you suddenly stop talking?"

Miss Hungry Dragon is very worried about you.JPG
From her perspective, Herbert was waving at her one second, but the next second he got hard—stiffly hard.

That's really strange.

Valentina, by putting herself in Herbert's shoes, helped him come up with a reasonable explanation.

Yes.

He must be hungry.

Hmph, luckily I was prepared!

Are you hungry? Don't worry, I have some food here!

As she spoke smugly, she pulled out a half-eaten yogurt stick and generously offered it to Herbert's lips.

Here, eat.

"……Um?"

Herbert was stunned by Valentina's unexpected combination of punches, and stared blankly at the yogurt stick in front of him.

I noticed the teeth marks left on it...

Others might find this a bit unsavory, but Herbert knew it represented Valentina's personal endorsement.

Valentina has a little habit: she likes to save the best food for last.

The fact that the yogurt stick was left after being nibbled on proves that it was something she liked and deliberately saved for last.

There aren't many people in this world who have the honor of being able to share their favorite food so willingly.

Thinking of this, even in the face of the critical situation, Herbert couldn't help but feel a sense of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, deep emotion/reflection).

This hungry dragon was truly worth raising!
"Ok?"

Valentina became increasingly puzzled when she saw that Herbert not only didn't react, but seemed even more dazed.

Is this... because I've gotten over my hunger?
Are we starving to death?

No!

I must save Herbert!
"You can't die!"

Valentina yelled and grabbed Herbert from behind, shoving a yogurt stick into his mouth.

Herbert: ? ? ?

and many more!

what's the situation?
"Eat it quickly!"

No, what do you want?

and also!

Don't strangle me like that!
"Ugh, I... ugh..."

Sir, I can't breathe!
However, the situation was "critical" at the moment, and the anxious Valentina did not notice Herbert's struggle, and just kept shoving the yogurt stick into his face.

Poke poke.

She poked Herbert's face several times with the yogurt stick, but couldn't get it into his mouth. Huh?
She blinked, muttering in confusion, "Hmm? How come it won't go in... Hey? Why did you run away?"

Finally, after struggling several times, Herbert managed to escape the clutches of the hungry dragon by taking advantage of Valentina's moment of confusion.

"Ah, don't run away, eat this quickly!"

"Stop! Cough cough!"

After Herbert escaped, he suddenly raised his hand to stop Valentina from continuing her atrocity of "trying to put the stick into his mouth."

"You! Wait a minute... cough cough!"

Herbert coughed laboriously for a while, glared at the hungry dragon whose expression had become subtle, and asked irritably, "Are you going to kill me?"

Are you the yogurt bar killer?
"Hmm? Oh!"

Valentina wasn't stupid; she was perfectly aware that something was wrong at that moment.

"...Hehehe!"

Realizing she had probably gotten herself into trouble, Valentina chuckled awkwardly and silently looked away.

Escape • I don't understand what you're saying • I know nothing.JPG
I won't watch!

If I don't look, I won't know who you're talking to!

Then... her face was turned back.

"Where are you looking? Look into my eyes!"

whoosh-

Valentina didn't reply, and immediately turned her head away forcefully.

I won't look! I won't look!

Despite her brute force, Herbert couldn't budge Valentina and could only watch helplessly as her neck twisted to the right.

However, although Miss Hungry Dragon refused to plead guilty, Herbert had his own methods.

Didn't you refuse to turn your head or look at me?

Row.

Then you should never turn back.

"Humph!"

Herbert snorted and then opened his mouth to bite Valentina's ear—but failed again.

He was ambushed.

Just as Herbert leaned over, Valentina quickly turned her head back and gave him a light peck on the lips.

"Hey!"

After making this bold move, Valentina glanced around nervously, and breathed a sigh of relief when she found that neither the devil nor the demon had noticed.

"Hey, don't be angry~"

Then he gave Herbert a fawning grin, hugged him, and said in a spoiled tone, "Oh dear, I didn't mean it. I just thought you were starving!"

The strategy of acting cute.

After discovering that Herbert was more responsive to gentle persuasion than force, and that coquetry was very effective, Valentina often used this cutesy tactic.

As for the results, they were indeed very useful.

Herbert wasn't angry to begin with, but seeing Valentina start to whine, he knew better than to say anything. He could only shake his head helplessly and say, "I'm not hungry, and I'm not angry... By the way, where did you get this from?"

He didn't see where the yogurt stick came from.

"Hmm? Oh!"

In response to Herbert's question, Valentina blinked and then chuckled sheepishly, "Well, I won't tell you... hehe."

I'm not telling you!
Thinking about it, she subconsciously puffed out her chest and gave a smug hum.

Herbert's lips twitched silently as he watched the hungry dragon's action.

Hmm...that's really hard to guess.

You'd never guess!

Valentina thought she had gotten away with it because of her cuteness and wit, and she was indulging in her superior intelligence.

Herbert pretended not to know, silently shaking his head as he watched her silly grin, and couldn't help but laugh.

Regardless of who wins or loses, everyone is happy.

Happy to everyone!

Valentina hugged Herbert, rubbing her cheek against his chest for a while, then suddenly remembered the strange behavior earlier and asked curiously, "By the way, what were you looking at just now?"

Herbert had calmed down by now. He looked at the reflection of the god on the water, squinted, and asked softly, "You really didn't see it?"

Eh?
Valentina looked in the direction Herbert was looking and asked, puzzled, "Hmm? What's there? What am I supposed to see?"

She sniffed, but couldn't smell anything.

Isn't there nothing there?
"It's nothing, just an insignificant shadow, nothing to worry about."

"Oh."

Although Valentina guessed that there must be something there and was somewhat curious, she did not ask any further questions.

Since Herbert didn't tell me, I didn't need to know.

Anyway, he won't hurt me.

Although Herbert didn't explain anything to Valentina, he was still quite curious about the reflection of the sun goddess.

"Is it the reflection of the blazing sun?"

When Herbert was forcibly fed by Valentina, but the sun goddess showed no reaction, he realized that he seemed to have misunderstood something.

Furthermore, the fact that Valentina was completely unaware of this also indirectly proves Herbert's conjecture.

The sun goddess did not actually appear here.

Scare yourself~
Besides, even if He really is here, so what?
Herbert was just too nervous and didn't come to his senses immediately.

I still care too much about what others think.

As long as I am not embarrassed, others will be embarrassed.

What can He do to me?
I am His "saint"!
Besides, what do I have to be afraid of?

I didn't do anything illegal or disorderly!

Isn't it just taking a bath in the temple with a monster girl?

What, is there a commandment in the Sun Code that forbids doing this?
no?
There is absolutely no such requirement!

What's wrong with the sun god? Does the sun god get to do whatever he wants?

Even if He really wants to cause trouble, He has to produce evidence first—hmm?

Suddenly, Herbert felt Miss Hungry Dragon in his arms freeze and hug him tightly.

"what happened?"

Herbert lowered his head and asked in confusion, but found that Valentina, who had been excitedly acting spoiled, had suddenly become extremely quiet and obedient.

Don't dare to move.

This is……

【"What are you doing?"】

An unexpected, cold voice echoed in her mind, causing Herbert's expression to freeze completely.

Damn it.

Are you serious this time?

"Just taking a bath... cough cough."

He struggled to lift his head, looking at the illusory image of the goddess that had somehow appeared on the water. His lips twitched, and he forced a smile: "If I said that, would you believe me?"

【“…”】

The gods remained silent, only looking down at the mortals soaking in the holy water pool.

After waiting for a while and seeing that He did not respond, the mortal tentatively asked, "Um, would you like to come along?"

Finally, the god spoke the second sentence.

Surprisingly, it wasn't phrases like "Get out!" or "Go to hell!" that were used.

Instead, it was an answer Herbert had never considered.

He said:

"Have you made up your mind?"

"I'll leave right away... huh?"

Herbert, who had originally decided to run away honestly, was stunned.

?

What decision?
Want to soak together?
