Survival: My companion is not serious

"Before we talk about that, I need to confirm what you can do, Miss Saint?"

"What can I do?" Celestine was a little confused. She had been thinking about how to help or complete the tasks assigned by Shak, and had never considered whether she could complete it.

"Yeah, right, or you know something?" Xia Ke nodded, and then seemed to have thought of something, looking at the other person's pure and beautiful face with expectation, "I remember when you introduced yourself, you said you were the reincarnation of a goddess, so as the reincarnation of a goddess, you must know some magic or something."

Shaq didn't know the detailed background of the Black Beast, but he was sure that there was magic in this world, so Celestine, as the reincarnation of the goddess, should also be...

"Well, I do know a little magic."

really!

She is worthy of being the reincarnation of a goddess!

If the Dark Elf Queen can do it, there is no reason why you, the reincarnation of a goddess, should be weaker than her!

“But, because I haven’t reached the moment of awakening yet, I can only use a cleansing technique to clean my body or the surrounding environment…” Celestine raised her hand with an awkward smile on her face and scratched her cheek, which had remained white and clean no matter what she encountered since she came to this world. Her voice became lower and lower as she went on.

Xia Ke: “………………”

A reincarnated god can be so weak. In a sense, you deserve to have your city and country destroyed and eventually become that.

As expected, I shouldn't have had any expectations for the characters in the book.

Chapter 14 I Need Some Time

"Uh, I only know how to clean... Never mind, it's okay. By the way, can you cook?" Xia Ke was disappointed to see that his path to transcendence was cut short. He originally thought he had found a great opportunity.

"Well, you also know that I used to be a saint, so..." Of course, she could hear the disappointment in Xia Ke's tone. Although she was extremely reluctant to disappoint him again, she also didn't want to deceive him, so she looked a little shy and embarrassed, but quickly continued, "No, but I can learn!"

"Okay, then the food issue from now on will be left to you, Miss Saint." Xia Ke nodded expressionlessly, "I will probably be very busy rebuilding the manor and collecting materials, so I won't be able to take care of the food."

Okay, actually think about it, as a saint of a religious country, how could Celestine cook for herself?

“Okay, okay, just leave it to me!” Celestine assured quickly. At the same time, she had already made up her mind that she would...possibly...try her best to research and make some relatively delicious dishes.

If you are unable to help the other person physically, then help and take care of the other person in ways that you can!

"Well, thank you for your help." Shak nodded gently. Perhaps he saw Celestine's uneasiness and embarrassment. After thinking for a while, Shak comforted her, "In fact, Miss Saint, you don't need to feel guilty. After all, we are born with individual differences. It's not that you can't do some work, but you are just not suitable for it. You just need to do your best."

How could Celestine not hear Shak's comfort? If she believed Shak's words and enjoyed his care and protection with peace of mind, she would look down on herself.

If you say that some jobs are not suitable, it's simply because you don't want to make yourself feel too uncomfortable...

Mr. Shak, what a nice man!

"Mr. Shak, please call me Celestine directly from now on. It's too strange to always call me Miss Saint." Celestine raised her white jade-like hands to tuck her golden hair behind her ears, and showed Shak a bright smile. "Besides, there are no more saints in this world. There is only Celestine who needs to rely on Mr. Shak to survive."

"Is that so? Then you can just call me Shaq." Hearing that Celestine wanted to get closer to him, Shaq did not refuse and expressed the same wish to Celestine.

"So, Shaq, let's get back to the previous topic. What should we do next or what plans do we have?" Seeing Shaq's attitude, Celestine was relieved.

"As for the plan, we will have it by then. We will first find a way to build a simple house, which should at least be able to shelter us from the wind and rain. Although the weather is fine now, who knows if there will be winter in this world." Shaq gave his summary. "After all, in addition to the threats from monsters from the outside world, we also have to consider the threat of sudden changes in the environment."

"That's true." Celestine nodded in agreement, but then said with some worry and frustration, "But how exactly are we going to do it? We don't know how to build it."

"It's okay, I can." Shak did not hide his incompetence and spoke directly, but when he said this, he looked at Celestine with a thoughtful look.

I've said it before, even though the things Shak made were very crude because of his 'power of thinking', as long as they were usable, that was just to save time and increase efficiency. He was doing things according to the Orcs' habitual thinking, and he wasn't picky anyway, so he would just make do with whatever was available.

But if he wanted, Shak could completely rely on the complete technology tree in his DNA to build normal buildings.

Considering that Celestine was a saint who had lived a life of luxury since childhood, he obviously could not treat Celestine with the same rough lifestyle as he did the orcs.

After all, isn't it good to just let a beautiful and delicate girl enjoy your eyes and gain Waaaaa energy? There is no need for you to deliberately let her endure the wind and sun when you clearly have the conditions.

What should I do if I end up becoming a yellow-faced village woman?

Besides, once the house is built, you will still live in it. You can also benefit from it. Why should you be so hard on yourself?

Education through suffering is not desirable.

After all, we are forced to suffer only because we cannot avoid it.

It's not that anyone is mentally ill, but instead takes the thorny path and walks forward with difficulty instead of taking the broad road.

"I, we understand. Please, please give me some time." However, what Shak didn't know was that it was this look of his that seemed to make Celestine misunderstand something, and a charming blush appeared on her beautiful and pure cheeks.

Considering how Shak explained his ability to himself before, it must be stimulated and strengthened by desire, and by building a qualified, safe and comfortable shelter, the power to distort reality is undoubtedly enormous.

In addition, since he couldn't help much, he had invisibly increased the other party's burden. This meant that Xia Ke needed to expend more 'Waaaaa' energy than before.

Although the other party did not say it explicitly, Celestine knew that he needed more emotional and physical stimulation at this moment!

This is the only thing I can do right now!

Since she had already made plans to go hand in hand with the other party, and later knew the limitations of Shak's abilities, Celestine had naturally made related plans.

Since Xia Ke was able to ignore her distrust of him in the previous situation and take the risk to find and save her, this shows that he is a good person with strong personal abilities and a strong will. It's just that he doesn't look that outstanding and is a bit like everyone else.

But this cannot be considered a shortcoming, it's just not outstanding. Celestine does not deny that good looks are indeed a plus, but compared with the other person's character and ability, especially in this dangerous world, it is even more insignificant.

Celestine is not the kind of person who only cares about looks. She has met many handsome guys since she was a child. Compared with appearance, which is too subjective, Celestine pays more attention to inner qualities and abilities. In addition, she knows that even though they are completely strangers and without the blessing and filter of their status, the other party still saves and supports her regardless of the past...

Forget the past + save life + strong mentality + super ability + kind-hearted...

No, Celestine couldn't find any reason to reject the other party.

It’s just that the contact time was too short. She needed some time to prepare herself mentally and find a reason to convince herself why she could give her purity as a goddess to the man in front of her in such a short time!

Chapter 15 My Goddess

What are you going to prepare?

Shak didn't know what Celestine was thinking, nor did he choose to ask. At this moment, he had no idea what misunderstanding the other party had because of his look, and he didn't know that huge wealth was about to fall on his head.

Now, in addition to considering what style of buildings to build according to the technology tree in his mind, he is also considering making some weapons and equipment that meet standard requirements in the future so that Celestine can use them herself.

Although he had never imagined having Celestine fight alongside him, Shak felt that he still had to allow her to maintain the ability to protect herself to a minimum.

Even if you let the other party guard the home, you have to give them the minimum capital to guard the home, right?

She had indeed bought some weapons and ammunition in the store before, and Celestine could use these weapons directly, but the power of these weapons and ammunition was too limited. They were okay against ordinary zombies and beasts, but if she encountered monsters with thick skin and flesh, then she would be stretched to the limit.

So Shak needs a larger caliber and stronger firepower!

And Celestine herself is a fragile mage, so power armor for defense and additional power must also be arranged!

However, those can only be done step by step.

At this moment, Shak was really grateful for the deadly convenience of the development of technological weapons. If it were in Celestine's original world of cold weapons, women would be destined to be only hot weapons because of their inherent physical weaknesses, and in a world where magic has a high talent threshold and is not popular, and the theme of war is cold weapons.

But in modern times, as long as you teach the other party the simple skills of shooting, the bullets fired from a gun can be equally deadly to men, women, the elderly or children.

Not to mention weapons like the Shak that come from the interstellar age.

But speaking of magic...

Shaq, who was still thinking about these things, suddenly seemed to have thought of something. He turned his head and looked at Celestine who was sitting on the bed, eating canned food silently with her head down.

It might be said that Celestine's cleaning skills are useless, but that's not entirely true.

After the test just now, Shak was pleasantly surprised to find that this magic not only kept Celestine clean at all times, but could also directly remove dirt from other people or the surface of objects.

Even the two dirty and torn beds, quilts, and clothes they brought back from the city were now only torn and old, without any dirt or odor at all.

This will save them time on cleaning later.

However, what made Shak think deeply was where the upper limit of this cleaning magic was and what was the definition of dirt and filth in magic.

Although Celestine said she didn't know either, she only knew of this magic from a simple introduction.

Remove dirt and grime from your own body and the designated target's body or objects.

And then Shak learned that it was not accurate to call Celestine's magic simply magic. The correct way to say it is to add the word "talent" before magic.

The innate magic that belongs only to the goddess!

There seems to be nothing wrong with this sentence at first glance, but Xia Ke deeply understands that the more vague and simple the description of an ability is, the more powerful the ability it can exert.

For example, if someone says that a person has the ability to turn red into green, it may seem like nothing.

But in fact, this ability is extremely amazing.

For example, if he wanted to kill someone, he only needed to use his ability to turn all the blood in a person's body green, and then the original structure and properties of the blood would collapse in an instant, thereby killing people directly or indirectly.

In other words, he directly changed the red spectrum of the sun's rays and the earth's rays into green, and the consequences would be equally disastrous!

The same goes for Celestine's cleaning technique. Can this magic really only clean a certain type of dirt that exists objectively, or can it remove what Celestine perceives as "dirt" in her subjective consciousness?

If it is the latter, then this magic is terrifying.

In addition, since Celestine is the reincarnation of the goddess, Shak is more inclined to the latter.

"Um, is there something on me?" Celestine, who was chewing on a can with relish, saw Shak suddenly looking at her. She thought there was something on her body, so she quickly stood up and looked down to check herself.

But then, as if he realized something, a charming blush climbed up his pointed ears, and he was somewhat afraid to look in Xia Ke's direction.

What Celestine didn't know was that this action of hers, coupled with her amazing figure, made Shak feel that the other party was more like displaying arms.

"No, I just suddenly remembered it and wanted to ask Celestine if you know any other magic similar to exorcism besides cleaning." Shak said after suppressing the idea of ​​having a grand 'Waaaaa' tonight.

Before, I was only thinking about those physical monsters that could be dealt with by firepower, and almost ignored those spiritual monsters that could ignore ordinary physical attacks.

Although he has not encountered it yet, Xia Ke feels that it will not hurt to prepare in advance.

Sometimes not needing to use it and not having it when needed are two different concepts.

"Uh, I don't know how to do that." Celestine sounded a little frustrated when she heard what Shaq said.

"It doesn't matter. Now try to imagine that all spirits are filthy beings. Then, with this mentality, cast a cleansing spell on these two guns." Shak took out two automatic rifles he bought in the store and placed them in front of Celestine.

"Yeah, okay." Celestine didn't know why Shak wanted to do this, but she was happy to help within her ability.

As Celestine's divine power surged, Shak activated his own ability at the same time.

"I thought that since Celestine thought spirits were filthy and used the cleansing spell on these two guns, then these two guns should be able to purify the filth."

With the blessing of two extraordinary powers, the two originally mediocre automatic rifles have undergone qualitative changes, but there is not much change in appearance.

In order to verify his guess, Shak placed the two automatic rifles on the shopping mall.

The gun of purification!

A sacred weapon blessed with the cleansing and purification technique performed by the Holy Goddess and stabilized and solidified by the 'Waaaaa' energy. It can cause devastating damage to filthy souls.

Sales amount: 50.

50!

I'm rough!

It was only 10 gold coins when I bought it!

Moreover, when I was selling firearms that were stabilized by the Power of My Thoughts before, I couldn't even get the minimum transaction amount of 1 gold. How come the price has doubled now that Celestine has been added? ! ! !

This huge profit gap instantly made Xia Ke feel that he was being targeted, but this tiny gap was instantly covered by the huge benefits.

“Hahahahahaha, Celestine, from now on you are my goddess!”

Excited and happy, Shaq couldn't help but go up to Celestine who still didn't understand what was going on and give her a big hug.

Chapter 16: Xia Ke's Science Class (Part 1)

"Huh? Huh!!!"

The sudden hug made Celestine, who was originally a little confused, become very overwhelmed. She was indeed considering it and was now finding reasons to convince herself to find a way to help the other party as soon as possible.

However, the other party's sudden initiative made her feel a little unsure about what to do with her body. Her pair of white hands froze there, not knowing what to do.

Is it to push away and reject the other person?

Or should you respond by hugging the other person?

But after a brief hesitation, after feeling the other person's high and happy emotions, and after remembering the other person's words "You are my goddess" before he suddenly hugged her, Celestine finally raised her hands and hugged the emotional Shaq somewhat stiffly.

"Although, I don't know what makes you so excited and happy, congratulations." Celestine said softly and sincerely.

"Hahaha, no no, Celestine, you are also important." Shak did not think that this was inappropriate, but he did not continue like this. Instead, after letting go of the other party, one hand was still around Celestine's round shoulders, and the other hand was holding the enchanted automatic rifle to introduce his new hairstyle to Celestine.

As Shak continued to explain, the originally shy Celestine finally understood why Shak was so happy. The saint who had not experienced the beatings of society did not know what such huge profits meant.

But this did not stop her from being happy with Xia Ke. She just didn't know what expression to use to deal with this matter and she could only smile along with him.
