Chapter 53: For Internal Affairs, Ask Jiang Qiao; For External Affairs, Summon 【Elysia】
Looking at Bronya, who had a pink arrow stuck in her head and was staring at her with that emoji-like expression, Elysia, who was slightly embarrassed, said softly, her voice lacking confidence:
"Uh... it seems that the treatment is quite effective?"
"Stare."
Indeed, it's effective. Why didn't you just shoot me dead?
Bronya directly pulled the arrow out of her head. Although she didn't feel any pain, and there weren't any wounds, at this moment, her trust in this unreliable man plummeted.
She had misjudged him.
This man named Jiang Qiao, in a way, had surpassed that white-haired fluffball!
—Although she hadn't been able to get her revenge by acting like Jiang Qiao, she had succeeded exceptionally well in acting like a useless Jiang Qiao! It couldn't be denied that, in her plan to take revenge on Jiang Qiao, the fool did have a taste of an indirect approach.
Of course, although her methods were incredibly unreliable, so much so that even Kiana and Mei wanted to avoid her, Elysia had, in her own way, completed the mission.
At least, she had also used the power of Origin, right?
Hadn't Jiang Qiao also used the power of Origin to extinguish all the Honkai energy sources of Nagazora City with a single arrow?
Now, she had also used one arrow to solve the hidden danger in Bronya's head.
Same power, same method, the two of them were clearly the same!
Jiang Qiao, I've caught up to you!
Holding the abundant pink light in her hand, and selectively ignoring Bronya's resentful gaze, Elysia, who was standing there, was full of confidence and excitement.
I've mastered the power of Origin!
The next time she swapped back, using her own body, she could definitely do even better!
The fat woman, whose confidence had soared dramatically due to a success that couldn't really be considered either a failure or a success, didn't notice that the pink light in her hand was flickering continuously. She might have thought that it looked pretty.
But in reality, that was a sign of instability. Of course, it could also be seen as... dislike.
Naturally, this was unavoidable.
Besides the fat woman's ignorance, there was also a difference between how Jiang Qiao and the fat woman wielded power.
When Elysia used the power of Origin, she would say to it: I want you to make a colorful black.
In short, she would be in charge of wishing, and it had to make it happen!
When Jiang Qiao used the power of Origin, he would say to it: Do this, do that, then I will obtain the result that I want.
In summary, one of them was a client who was very good at making wishes, the other was a client who clearly stated his demands and never procrastinated.
Between these two masters, who to choose, it should have been very obvious, right?
All the authority of Origin could say was: Big sis, stay away from me, I'm afraid that Big Bro will misunderstand!
Not to mention that the fat woman from before was even more outrageous in the Origin's authority's eyes than what was described above.
Elysia: I won't tell you what result I want, but you have to fulfill the result that I want!
—Your sister! Even those who make wishes at least say their wish! You want me to guess what your wish is?
Unfortunately, although most of the fat woman's Origin's authority had temporarily escaped this sea of suffering, there was still a small portion that had to stay with the children and suffer through the fat woman's antics.
It was fortunate that the authority wasn't conscious. Otherwise, it might have spammed the chat with question marks: Dad, I'm here! Why aren't you here?!
…
Although even Mei was starting to think that Elysia was unreliable and wanted to suggest, "How about you let that Elysia come back?"
But she couldn't say that it was because she felt that [Elysia] was more dependable, stronger, and more Elysia-like.
Whether it was due to politeness or something else, Mei resisted the urge to blurt out her idea and said:
"What should we do next? Just continue with our daily lives?"
Now that the Nagazora City crisis had been resolved, they should go back to their daily lives.
But, since she had accepted Jiang Qiao's invitation to save the world, although she still felt that it was a little ridiculous, Mei still accepted her position. She even felt a little expectant.
She, who had a slightly chunibyo side, was extremely excited to be participating in something as interesting as saving the world!
"Uh..."
Elysia, upon being asked this, instantly had her mind go blank, and started to stutter.
What to do? What to do? What to do?
She had completely, completely no idea!
She only knew that Jiang Qiao had asked her to stay in this city for some time. As for anything else…
Ely, I don't know anything!
All the plans before were made by Jiang Qiao, weren't they?
—Just like some people had once said, Elysia wasn't suitable to be a leader, and that assessment was very accurate.
Because besides having a beautiful face and being a straight-forward lesbian, her education was somewhat… ahem.
As the saying goes—Reading ten thousand books isn't as good as traveling ten thousand miles.
The fairy lady, who had traveled all over the world since childhood, was extremely intelligent, okay?!
But as they say, everyone has something they're good at and not good at.
Maybe coming up with plans was something that the fat woman wasn't good at?
Although she was very unwilling, and would occasionally fantasize about becoming the female Zhuge Liang in the eyes of beautiful girls, when faced with this kind of awkward situation, Elysia would honestly choose the safest option—Please teach me!
For internal affairs, she consulted Jiang Qiao, and for external affairs, she summoned [Elysia].
The current Elysia was extremely proficient at summoning people.
Elysia: Dear Jiang Qiao~ What should we do next?
—Seeing this group message—
On his way to Eden's concert after applying for leave from Fire Moth—
Wearing a sun hat and a casual sundress, a certain pink-haired female tourist (A) shook her delicate toes, which were covered by sandals but had pink nail polish that could still be seen, and sighed:
"Seriously, I'm suddenly worried that my brain will rust away in Elysia's hands."
Although he had said that, expecting the fool to take initiative and use that little brain of hers seemed rather unrealistic.
Jiang Qiao: I can't do anything about you…
His current feeling was exactly like Doraemon and his burden, Nobita.
Fortunately, he already had a base plan for the future 50,000 years later.
To save the Previous Era, whose ending had already been determined, he had to personally dominate this past.
And for that, he inevitably needed to use those Divine Keys as support.
So—
Elysia and their task was very clear.
Find and obtain all the Divine Keys.
Coincidentally, in Nagazora City, which was within reach, one of Jiang Qiao's goals was present.
—The 12th Divine Key, the Key of Domination, Jizo Mitama!
