Chapter 451 [Forced Reward] (Please Subscribe!)
What! ! ?
The Ice and Snow Goddess had prepared numerous excuses and rehearsed them countless times before finally being mentally prepared.

He genuinely didn't understand before, and watched the exciting and stimulating scenes for a long time in a daze.

But He is not stupid.

As a goddess, it's one thing if you haven't experienced it before, but once you've seen it with your own eyes, you can still find the answer by following the clues.

He searched.

Then I regretted it.

The kitten wished it had never known anything about this.

Looking at the various poses, combinations, and tools found... the Ice and Snow Goddess was stunned several times.

The cat was quite shocked.

However, the impact at that time was far less than it is now.

The kitten was utterly shocked!
You mean, the moon goddess herself descended to meet you?
And just for a reward?
Or was it a forced reward?!?
are you sure?

The Ice Goddess couldn't believe Herbert's casual and perfunctory explanation.

What does it mean when someone forces you to give something you don't want?
You, you, you, don't talk nonsense!
That's...that very person!!!

In the eyes of the Ice and Snow Goddess, the Moon Goddess has always been the noble and elegant Silver Moon Goddess, with absolutely no element related to the "blood moon".

Although the Ice and Snow Goddess doesn't admit it on the surface, she knows in her heart that the Winter Goddess is good to her, but she always shows a proud and awkward attitude.

But if given a chance to become what it wants, it would never become the goddess of winter.

Instead, she wanted to become the Silver Moon Goddess.

How to describe this feeling?
To draw a rough analogy... that's like my mother's elegant urban friend, an "auntie" she greatly admires.

My mother is a good person, but I'm so familiar with her that I feel she has many flaws.

An excellent aunt is even more desirable.

And now...

That auntie was secretly forcing herself on me... Ah!! ?

The kitten felt that its worldview was on the verge of collapse.

"Haha."

Herbert smiled as he watched the Ice Goddess's bewildered expression, pondering how to use this opportunity to get her to let him touch her tail.

That big tail, wow, I really have to touch it!
Besides, Herbert really wasn't lying this time.

In fact, the Lady of the Moon had just departed shortly before the Ice Goddess descended.

Just before leaving, the Goddess of the Silver Moon gestured for Herbert to lower his head.

After thinking for a while, the Goddess of the Silver Moon actually accepted Herbert's forced explanation and, without any hesitation, directly stated the first half of the prophecy.

He acknowledged Herbert's peculiar use of prophecy.

After making that decision, His gaze toward Herbert held an undisguised admiration.

It can only be said that he truly lived up to being diagnosed with schizophrenia by Dr. Albert, as his emotional shift was remarkably rapid.

Flip it over!

Furthermore, for a goddess, merely verbally acknowledging the thoughts of mortals is not enough.

So, at that moment, recalling what others had done in the past, He did something to Herbert that He had never done before.

Before leaving, the Goddess of the Silver Moon walked up to Herbert, gently floated up to a slightly higher position than him, and raised her hand to press his shoulder down.

—It wasn't pressed.

Silver Moon Goddess: ?
The goddess was puzzled.

This guy's body doesn't look particularly robust, but he looks like a giant dragon!
Rock hard!

It's impossible to press it, it's completely impossible to press it.

Herbert: ?

Ordinary people are confused.

what does it mean?

I'm familiar with that move, but I used to be the one making others kneel down for me... Oh!

He snapped out of his daze when he saw the puzzled look on the Silver Moon Goddess's face.

Oh, so that's not what I was doing!

Fortunately, Herbert was quite accommodating after realizing what was happening, and readily bent down, kneeling perfectly on one knee before the goddess like a true knight.

He didn't know what the Silver Moon Goddess wanted to do, but he could guess that he was probably going to receive a reward.

Why did He reward himself?
This reason is actually not important.

Gods are free.

Goddesses, on the other hand, are capricious.

I'll reward you if I want to; there's no reason needed.

As Herbert pondered, he heard a smug hum; the goddess seemed finally satisfied with his "humble" attitude.

Herbert couldn't help but chuckle to himself.

Once the goddess's facade was exposed, she stopped pretending and gave him the feeling of an innocent child.

Then, he felt a fragrant breeze on his face, and his forehead was gently covered by something soft.

kiss?
!!!

The process of bestowing blessings is very short.

When Herbert looked up, shaken, the Silver Moon Goddess was no longer there.

The goddess who represented the silver moon seemed to have never existed from the beginning, leaving no trace in the world.

Under the cover of night, only the gentle moonlight shone on his brow, eyes, and body.

Herbert raised his hand and silently touched the spot on his forehead where he had been kissed.

The faint warmth that still lingers there is the only proof that He ever appeared in the mortal world.

"..."

Feeling the lingering sensation there, Herbert's brow twitched slightly.

It felt as if I had been blessed by the Goddess of the Silver Moon.

So, what exactly is the effect of this blessing?
Just as he was thinking this, the holy mark between his brows suddenly erupted.

The radiant holy mark appeared, transforming into cold eyes between Herbert's brows.

At this moment, many new scarlet lines suddenly appeared in the eyes of the blazing sun—looking like dense blood vessels.

But Herbert knew clearly that it was more than just something that looked good.

The original Eyes of the Blazing Sun possessed a true vision that could see through illusions, and could proactively discern situations when encountering crises.

And now, that ability has been enhanced.

"……hiss."

The images before his eyes were blurred, as if constantly changing scenes were flashing by.

Herbert was initially confused, but he was no weakling and quickly recovered, distinguishing the different images.

At the same time, he saw five scenes—the complete process of a leaf being blown by the wind and falling to the ground.

At that very moment, the leaf was still firmly attached to the tree.

pat.

With a non-existent soft sound, the leaf actually fell from the tree just as he had "seen".

Under that vision, he seemed to be able to see what would happen in the next few seconds.

! ! ?

Extraordinary sixth sense?
Predict future?

Or……

As Herbert was filled with doubt and shock, he heard the soft laughter of the Silver Moon Goddess.

"This is your reward."

The goddess whispered in the mortal's ear: "Don't worry, this is just a small gift, a reward for you seeing through the true nature of the moonlight."

"Since you are so good at using prophecy, I will give you a little more help."

"I will grant you the [Silver Moon Eyes] that will allow you to see the future."

The goddess's voice became ancient and distant, as if it came from the ages past.

"Look with this eye."

"See it, and then take hold of the future you desire."

The voice of the deity was solemn and sacred, causing Herbert's expression to become serious involuntarily.

At this moment, Herbert truly understood once again. No matter how unlike "gods" the gods of this world may appear at any given moment, their inherent power is beyond doubt.

They wield authority and possess power beyond human comprehension.

Just as Herbert was feeling sentimental, the goddess... suddenly and without warning transformed back into a crazy woman.

"Haha! That's all, you don't need to talk like that anymore."

The Goddess of the Silver Moon suddenly dropped her act and laughed twice, leaving Herbert stunned.

Um! ! ?
“I didn’t know how you got involved with my good sister before, but after meeting you this time, I think I understand what she was thinking.”

"He saw hope in you."

Herbert: ?

Do you really understand?
What do you understand now?!
In her ear, the Silver Moon Goddess whispered to herself, "You do indeed possess a future that none of us can ignore... an unprecedented possibility."

"That kind of dazzling light, which would even intrigue the gods."

"If a deity with the power of prophecy were to witness this, they would surely notice and attempt to claim that future for themselves."

"But now, you don't need to worry anymore, I've hidden those lights!"

That kiss just now was a blessing from the gods, and also a form of protection.

The Goddess of the Silver Moon took the initiative to help conceal Herbert's "aura".

"Haha, you don't need to thank me."

The Silver Moon Goddess sensed Herbert's gratitude and snorted, "Don't overthink it, mortal. I'm doing this simply because I don't want to lose to Him!"

The crazy woman declared—all that she did wasn't to protect you! It was all to challenge Him!
Who does that "He" represent? Naturally, it's only that blazing sun.

If the older sister can do it, why can't the younger sister?
Herbert nodded repeatedly, saying, "Yes, yes, you're right!"
You can fight even more intensely!
By the way, the tsundere archetype has been phased out of the meta.

"But... my sister?"

The sun and the moon, seemingly normal on the surface, both appear to be in some special state.

The sun and moon as perceived by the world are quite different from their true forms.

The relationship between them may be different from what outsiders imagine.

At least in Herbert's view, they were not so harmonious, yet they were indeed inseparable.

"hehe."

The Goddess of the Silver Moon vaguely sensed Herbert's thoughts, but did not argue further. In the end, she simply said, "Don't be too happy yet. Let me remind you, I am not as magnanimous as my sister."

"He may not care where you end up, or even whether you live or die... but I'm different!"

"Now that you've taken my power, I'll be keeping a close eye on you."

"If you disappoint me, I'll take it back!"

In its final moments, the silver moon seemed to be both a warning and a declaration of some kind of protection.

He said:

"The silver moon will always watch over you."

Eventually, the surroundings returned to their usual tranquility, with only Herbert standing quietly under the moonlight, contemplating his conversation with the gods.

What exactly was that conversation all about?
What was the reason for His coming?

The Silver Moon's Trial?

If so, does that mean I've passed?

……

While Herbert was pondering these things, the Ice Goddess appeared, which led to their initial conversation.

Herbert said that to see the Ice Goddess's reaction and to see if he could glean any insights from it.

The result—just three sentences were enough to shut down the kitten's not-so-bright little brain.

Herbert's lips twitched, and he felt even more that this little cat goddess was unreliable.

My initial assumptions seemed to have made Him seem too lofty and unattainable.

He looked at the Ice Goddess and asked with amusement, "Madam, don't you doubt the truth of what I'm saying?"

pat pat pat.

The Ice and Snow Goddess blinked, looking confused, and asked, "Eh? Then... then, is it true?"

"of course it's true."

Seeing the goddess's adorable expression, Herbert's previously confused mood brightened, and he said with a smile, "I'm a paladin, why would I lie?"

Paladin?
As a result, seemingly struck by the word "paladin," the Ice Goddess subconsciously said, "Yes, you are a paladin, but you weren't just now..."

"What happened just now?"

!!!

The Ice Goddess immediately snapped out of her daze, shaking her head repeatedly until her whole body swayed: "No! Nothing! Really nothing... nothing!"

The voyeur goddess was excited and nervous, afraid that she might accidentally reveal something.

Herbert, the person being spied on, smiled without losing his composure and asked casually, "So, you saw it? Heh."

"I...I didn't, I didn't see anything."

The kitten didn't see anything!

"..."

"..."

Herbert lowered his head and silently watched the cat goddess who had looked away.

Do you want to hear this for yourself?
Who will believe it?

After staring at each other silently for a while, Herbert suddenly said, "How about this, let me see yours, and then we'll be even."

"?"

The goddess of ice and snow was not angered by these offensive and disrespectful words; her eyes were filled with pure shock.

What the hell are you talking about!
What do you mean by "Let me show you"?!
Herbert smiled at His reaction, seemingly taking a step back in resignation, and continued, "So it really won't work? Tsk, fine then, let me touch your belly."

"...Hey! Don't go too far."

The Ice and Snow Goddess, who was initially in the wrong, pouted and glared at him with some dissatisfaction.

Say that again!
If you say that again, I'm going to breathe on you!

"Alright alright."

Herbert, seemingly intimidated, could only reluctantly take another step back and sigh, "This won't work, that won't work, fine... then let me touch your tail, is that alright?"

Look, they won't allow it.

She wouldn't let me touch her belly.

Then I'll touch its tail, that should be okay, right?

"..."

He gave Herbert a deep look.

Kittens aren't smart, but they're not stupid either.

At that moment, He suddenly understood.

All of Herbert's build-up and preparation were ultimately for the "reward".

"……snort."

He grunted, then moved silently in front of Herbert, rubbed his tail against his trouser leg, and muttered, "Consider this your reward!"

Be gentle!

"Otherwise, I might bite you!"

Okay, let him touch it first.

As for the important business...

Oh right, what did I want to talk to him about?

Let me think about it... Ah~
Just then, the Ice Goddess suddenly felt an unprecedentedly strong stimulation and let out a satisfied... meow.

"Meow--"

"Meow~ Meow~ Meow—Meow!!!"

"There! You can't go there!"

"No! Meow—"

But Herbert wouldn't listen and kept going, only increasing the speed at which he petted the cat.

If you can just stop whenever you want, then is the reward for you or for me?!

Okay, little kitty, go tell your mom you're staying at your classmate's house tonight.
