I, Yuhaka, am hungry!

.................................................. .........................................

During the day, in a forest cave on Pandora,

While Yuhaka, Via, and Ulis were sleeping, Yuhaka opened her eyes and, after checking that there were no enemies around, got up and took out a kettle from the dimensional portal. Because items in Yuhaka's dimensional portal could pause the passage of time, the water in the kettle was still hot, so Yuhaka didn't need to boil it again.

Then Yuhaka took out three boxes of instant noodles he had gotten from the mercenary transport plane and started cooking them. Following the instructions on the packaging, Yuhaka poured hot water into the opening of the instant noodles, and after a short while, the aroma of the instant noodles wafted out of the box.

Viya and Ulis, who were standing nearby, immediately woke up.

Chapter 557 [Viya suddenly recalled the promise she made after becoming a hero]

suck-

As the sounds of slurping ramen filled the air, Yuhaka and his two companions were eating instant noodles for breakfast. Viya sighed and couldn't help but exclaim:

"Mmm...the instant noodles from the otherworldly people are so delicious~"

Ulis, who was standing to the side, slurped up a mouthful of noodles, nodded, and said:

"Yes~"

Yuhaka simply wiped her mouth and said calmly:

"Generally speaking, OwO......."

Hearing what Yuhaka said, Viya looked at Yuhaka with a curious expression and asked:

"Huh? Has Lady Youyou ever eaten better instant noodles?!"

In response to Viya's question, Yuhaka nodded with a proud expression, his chest puffed out like an airplane stunt. Seeing Yuhaka's expression in the system space, Zelu couldn't help but comment:

"Why do you look so proud of yourself even when you're just eating a box of instant noodles...?"

Of course, Yuhaka can't hear that.

Finally, after the group finished their meal, they prepared to move on to their next destination. Viya put on a set of small armor made of bones, shells, and scales, while Ulis helped Viya put on her armor.

This set of armor was made from materials that Viya and the others collected last night, including some scales that fell from Yuhaka. The processing of these scales must be done by Yuhaka, since Ulis and Viya are not capable of processing them.

After putting it on, Viya looked at her armor with a curious expression. To be honest, it was the first time Viya had ever worn hard armor. As a witch, Viya used to wear thin cloth draped over her shoulders, plus some kind of white creature's skin made into witch costumes, which looked a bit like some kind of XX pajamas.

Ulis checked that Viya's protective gear was properly secured. After checking, Ulis looked at Viya's gear with a satisfied expression and said:

"Very good, this is the best armor I have ever made."

Then Ulis looked at Viya and said:

"Alright, we have the spear, the bow and arrows, and the armor. Viya, all you need now is a suitable mount to become a qualified hero. By the way, have you chosen your mount yet?"

Upon hearing Ulis's question, Viya also showed a thoughtful expression. To be honest, she didn't know what creature she should choose as her mount either. The Niwei people didn't choose their mounts by force to capture creatures.

Instead, they conquer their opponents by connecting their mounts' nerve bundles with nerve bundles without using any offensive means.

It sounds simple, but it's actually very dangerous. Since weapons and other means of attack cannot be used, the Niwei people can only rely on their own agility to conquer the mount. By the way, the ritual of conquering the mount can only be performed by the individual and cannot be done with the help of others.

After thinking for a while, Viya decided to capture an armored dragon whale as her mount. As for why she didn't ride Yuhaka... Viya felt uncomfortable about it, since Yuhaka was an apostle of other star gods, and it wouldn't be right to do so.

Pandora, inside the system space, heard Viya's thoughts and said with a helpless expression:

"Ha...this child is good in every way, except he's too honest..."

Meanwhile, Zelus, standing to the side, wore a satisfied expression, looking at Pandora like a mother-in-law looking at her daughter-in-law, and said:

"Really? I'm quite satisfied with this child. Letting her ride Youyou as a mount for a while is no problem at all."

As for Yhaka's opinion, Zelus never paid any attention to it. Of course, Yhaka never had any objections; he would just change positions when the time came.

After discussing it, the two decided to pair up Yuhaka and Viya together to save themselves a lot of time searching for mounts later.

After all, Tetagon, who was standing next to them, had already sent Heleya to infiltrate the Ambrose space station. If they didn't achieve something, they would lose face big time.

.................................................................................

After receiving Pandora's message, Viya was completely bewildered. Pandora said that Yuhaka could temporarily become her mount, and that there wasn't much time left (referring to Heleya killing everyone on the space station).

Upon hearing Pandora's opinion, Viya also looked nervous. Clearly, Pandora's words had put her on edge. Could it be that those outsiders were preparing even more terrifying weapons?!

Thinking of all this, Viya couldn't help but recall everything that had happened to her original hometown. Viya felt terrified. Just then, a wet, soft touch brushed against her cheek.

"ah!?"

Viya was startled, and when she came to her senses, she saw Yuhaka staring at her with his long tongue lolling out.

Looking at Yuhaka's slightly silly face, Viya suddenly felt that the fear she had just felt had vanished.

Viya scratched her cheek a little shyly and looked at Youhaka, saying:

"Um, Lady Youyou, could you temporarily become my mount and fight alongside me?"

Upon hearing Viya's request, Youhaka was only slightly puzzled for a moment before nodding and saying after understanding what Viya meant:

"Hmm, that's good. By the way, has Viya become a hero now?"

"Eh?"

Before Viya could react, Ulis, who had overheard Yuhaka's words, nodded and said with a hint of pride:

"That's right! Viya is now a hero. By the way, should I call Viya 'Hero'?"

Upon hearing Ulis's words, Viya looked completely bewildered, clearly not yet understanding what Yuhaka and Ulis were talking about. Then, she realized she seemed to have already completed the Hero's Ritual!

However, Viya felt like she had promised Yuhaka something.

Then Viya remembered what Yuhaka had told her when she was in the Niwei tribe, and her face immediately turned bright red!

Chapter 558 [The title girl is on vacation.]

After Viya officially became a hero, she took Yuhaka and Ulis back to the Niwei tribe.

Upon returning to the Niwei tribe, Viya, wielding a poisoned spear and carrying a powerful horn bow, rode Yuhaka and descended before the Niwei tribe. The High Priestess Lovet and the war chief Rose, who had come to greet her, led the Niwei people to kneel before Viya and said:

"Congratulations on becoming a hero, Viya, no, I should now call you Hero."

After Viya dismounted from Yuhaka's back, she spoke to her tribespeople, asking her mother and the others to stand up.

"Mother, Father, I have returned after completing the Kumosh ritual for the hero."

“(“▔□▔)/(“▔□▔)/Oh~~~”

Upon hearing Viya's words, the Niwei tribe members present cheered for her, because this time their Niwei tribe had gained a new hero, even though this hero was a little one. This did not stop the Niwei tribe from congratulating Viya on becoming a hero.

.................................. .................................

In the Niwei tribe, located in an underground cave, the High Witch Lovet held a banquet to celebrate Viya becoming a hero, filling the Niwei tribe with a joyful atmosphere.

On Viya's side, Lovett was telling his daughter about the nightlife of the Niwei people, while Viya stood there dumbfounded, her face growing increasingly red, as if steam was rising from her head.

After saying all this, Lovett looked at his daughter and said:

"Have you remembered everything I said?"

Upon hearing her mother's words, Viya paused for a moment before nodding quickly to indicate that she understood. Lovett, seeing this, could guess that Viya probably hadn't fully remembered. However, Lovett didn't care about that; after all, once she took off her clothes and lay down on the ground, everyone would understand what was going on.

Lovett had inquired about Yhaka from Pandora. Yhaka had at least a wife and a daughter, so he didn't seem like a novice. It would be fine to hand him over to Yhaka.

Polygamy is quite normal among the Niwei tribe. Generally, powerful Niwei people will form families with several Niwei people, but Lovett is an exception, so he only has one partner.

Lovett then looked at Ulis, who was standing to the side with a completely bewildered expression, and said:

"Witch Ulis, thank you so much for making weapons and armor for Viya."

Hearing Lovett's words, Ulis, who had been looking completely bewildered, finally snapped out of it and waved her hand at Lovett, saying:

"No, no, no, actually I didn't do much. I just made weapons and armor for the hero according to the ritual."

Lovett also said to Ulis what she had said:

"Although you helped Viya make weapons and armor according to the ritual, we won't let you do this for nothing."

Upon hearing Lovett's words, Ulis exclaimed "Eh?" as if she was puzzled. However, Lovett didn't answer Ulis's question but instead spoke to her:

“Witch Ulis, your mother and people will be coming to our tribe in a few days, and then you can return to your tribe.”

Ulis looked surprised and relieved when she heard Lovett's words. To be honest, she was very worried about the safety of her people when she saw the destroyed tribe. Now she didn't have to worry about the safety of her people so much.

After receiving news that her people were safe and sound, Ulis was relieved and said to Lovett:

"Thank you so much for bringing this news, Great Witch Lovett."

Lovett didn't pay much attention to Ulis's gratitude. He was more concerned about his daughter's marriage prospects; after all, if Viya didn't get married soon, no one would want her. (Author: I want her!)

Lovett waved his hand and said:

"You're welcome. It was all under the instructions of the Star God. There's no need to thank me too much."

Lovett then said to Ulis:

"Witch Ulis, you must be tired now. I'll have someone take you to your room to rest. You should get some rest."

After hearing Lovett's words, Ulis vaguely understood that Lovett had something to say to Viya. Judging from their previous behavior, Ulis guessed that the two wanted to talk about those intimate things.

To be honest, Ulis didn't expect that Viya was actually older than her (in terms of age). Ulis had always thought that Viya was about the same age as her, which was a bit hard for Ulis to imagine.

"Then I shall take my leave, Heroine Viya, and High Witch Lovett."

After saying goodbye to Viya and Lovett, Ulis took her leave, leaving Viya and Lovett alone in the room.

After a moment of silence between the two in the room, Lovett seemed to remember something and took some pink, blueberry-like fruits from a nearby basket, handing them to Viya and saying:

"Here, Viya, this is for you."

Viya looked at the pink fruit in her mother's hand with a puzzled expression, and then she recognized what the pink fruit in Lovett's hand was. Viya's face immediately turned red.

Viya said, sounding a little flustered:

"Wait, wait, wait, Mother! Why did you take this thing out?!"

Seeing Viya's panicked expression, Lovett looked at her with a disappointed expression and said:

"What do you mean by 'this thing'? This fruit can really help you. Otherwise, do you think you can get it done in one go?"

Hearing her mother's words, Viya looked at Lovett with a bewildered expression and said:

"Huh? Can't it be done just once?"

Lovett shook his head at Viya's words and said:

"Of course not, but you don't have to use it if you don't want to. Rose and I aren't in a hurry anyway, but I personally hope to have a baby soon."
