How can a mortal touch a treasure that belongs to an Old Deus?
In front of a treasure named the Suniaster, even powerful races like the Elf and the Flügel, whose power far surpassed that of Imanity, were classified as mortals.
Perhaps an existence who had already become the Only God could hand over the throne to a mortal, but at this moment, the most primitive Suniaster, which had never been touched by any existence, had an invisible threshold that blocked mortals at the steps, allowing them only to look up.
"..."
Silent, Riku grabbed his hair hard with both hands. He rested his arms on the wooden table and lowered his head without saying a word.
He was thinking, thinking infinitely, and looking for a better solution.
"Then, do you want to hear my plan?" Su'er forced a smile. He kept gesticulating with his two hands, "I didn't come back empty-handed this time."
"Okay, tell me," Riku also smiled reluctantly.
"Then let's start with the conversation with the God of Doubt, the mystery of the birth of an Old Deus and... the power that belongs to me alone," Su'er's voice suddenly became extremely deep, "This is a plan that I have discussed with the God of Doubt and Think for a long time..."
"It must have been very hard for Sister Think and Brother Su'er outside, right?"
Nonna rubbed the wooden cup in her hands back and forth and finally couldn't help but ask.
"Eh? It wasn't that hard, you know?" She replied with a smile. The light golden-haired Elf... oh no, at least she looked no different from an ordinary Imanity now, except for being unusually beautiful.
But in terms of beauty, there were many beautiful people sitting in this small cave, but it was also normal. After all, the only ones who could be called Imanity here were Couronne and Nonna, who were unfortunately pulling back the looks.
Not long after Su'er and Riku left, Credo felt that the atmosphere was a bit strange. He quickly took his two lively children and left, saying that the children were hungry.
"Of course it wasn't hard. This woman basically didn't do anything with her own hands, did she? Weren't all the things done by Su'er? From cooking to bathing and so on," Jibril was lying flat on a rock with her legs crossed. She held a book with both hands and was flipping through it, constantly exposing Think's dark secrets.
Yes, they were dark secrets - after all, Think would of course not do anything with her own hands if it could be solved with magic.
"Ah! So Think... also gets help from others... to take a bath?" The one who spoke was the Ex-Machina named Schwi. She looked like an Imanity child, and her every word and action had a feeling of a frightened hamster. Not only was her voice weak, but even a single sentence would be divided into several segments with pauses.
To put it simply, she was very cute.
It's just that what she said was a bit off.
"Also?" Think and Jibril turned their heads at the same time and asked.
"Ah ha ha ha, this child is still young, still young. She usually trusts Riku, so Riku helps her take a bath. It's very normal," Couronne suddenly let out a forced dry laugh. She put her arm around Schwi and rubbed her face back and forth with one hand.
Even though the development of the settlement desperately needed population, in order to ensure safe childbirth, Riku still set a strict rule that those under a certain age were not allowed to have children, as Su'er suggested. And Schwi's appearance at this moment could indeed be described as young.
"Eh? Wait?" After her body had subconsciously done all this, Couronne finally came to a realization. "Miss, Miss Think, you also, also...?"
Until now, Think had not denied Schwi's question, which made Couronne feel that the muscles on her face were gradually twitching.
"Just call me Think," Facing Couronne's strange gaze, Think didn't feel shy at all. Instead, she smiled generously and said, "That's right. Su'er usually helps me clean my body."
"Mhm, mhm!" Schwi nodded twice like a small animal. She whispered, "Taking a bath is very comfortable... very relaxing... being wiped... can clean the details... don't need the self-cleaning device..."
Although this Ex-Machina's words were intermittent and had no head or tail, everyone present instantly understood what she was saying.
"Don't agree on this kind of thing!!" Couronne shouted in frustration. She reached out to cover Schwi's mouth, but Schwi nimbly dodged it.
"Couronne... calm down..."
"How can I calm down! Ahhhh! Nonna! Nonna?!"
Couronne's cry turned into a panic-stricken wail in the middle. When a few people looked over, they saw that the blue-purple-haired girl's eyes were wide open. Her jaw was trembling as if she had been electrocuted, and her teeth were chattering with a dense and crisp sound.
Clack-clack-clack.
"...So, Sister Think, you and Brother Su'er are already that close?" Nonna finally caught her breath after Couronne patted her back for a long time. She looked at Think blankly and said.
"Hmm? Close? We are indeed very close~," Think said with a smile. She touched Nonna's head and continued, "From skin to muscles and even every single blood vessel, even the internal organs are very clear, you know~"
"...That's so scary! What kind of description is that!" Couronne couldn't help but shiver and complain.
"Ah~, all in all, it's more than what you imagined—"
Bang!
Clang!!
Jibril, who understood everything, naturally knew that Think's words were a physical description. While holding back her laughter, she wanted to add fuel to the fire, but she was interrupted by a huge sound from the cave where Su'er and Riku were.
"Riku?! Su'er?!"
Couronne stood up immediately and shouted. She ran over and pulled open the wooden door, but in the next moment, she was stunned by the scene inside the cave.
One of the legs of the wooden table was broken in the middle. A few chairs were also overturned on the ground. The things on the table were all spilled on the ground. However, what shocked her even more than these scattered objects were the two boys whom she considered her brothers.
Riku was straddling Su'er, who was lying on his back on the ground, with his raised fist not yet put down.
