Chapter 689 - 28: As Long As There Is Love, It’s Not a Problem
"Really not?"She raised her head, glaring at him angrily, but her gaze involuntarily lingered on his pair of deep blue and clear Star Pupils. A few seconds later, the silver-haired girl lowered her head again, looking listless.
The long side ponytail resembling a rebellious silver cowlick also drooped dejectedly, no longer possessing its previous liveliness.
Damn, if he’s really not of the same race, doesn’t that mean there’s even less standing and reason?
Sure enough, my things will be taken by that bad woman!!
She thought reluctantly, not knowing what to do about the current situation, her whole demeanor somewhat dispirited.
"Really not." On the other side, Gu Mo seriously reiterated, knowing his own circumstances, naturally not feeling he had any racial connection with Miss Shinki. To be precise, his existence was like that of an outsider in this world.
— Not to mention racial heritage, even the world of origin is completely different!
— This isn’t like the situation of Miss Shinki founding the Demon Realm; seemingly different worlds are actually within the same temporal and spatial dimension... but entirely different even at the cosmic plane.
"..."
"..."
After he seriously reiterated his point, determined to clear up this misunderstanding, the silver-haired girl fell silent, and the air temporarily quieted down.
After a long while, she suddenly stood up, turned around dejectedly, and started walking back unsteadily.
"Um... where are you going?"
Gu Mo watched her back with some uncertainty or worry and asked.
Miss Shinki did not turn around; she just said dispiritedly, "I’m going back to my room to rest..."
Back to the room to rest...
That’s good too.
Gu Mo watched thoughtfully as the silver-haired girl’s back faded into the distance, then gently sighed and rubbed his forehead with his long index finger again. Even though he felt a bit of a headache and helplessness, this matter should be resolved now, right?
Yes, it should be...
......
No matter how beautiful, what is lost is lost.
No matter how cruel, what is to come will still come.
......
A night passed without anything else happening.
Gu Mo spent the whole night admiring the moonlight, or more accurately, comprehending the Moonlight Power.
Meanwhile, his Perception constantly enveloped the entire canyon, particularly focusing on his Magic Ship.
Although he thought theft was unlikely, according to Yakumo Zi, the area around Demon Mountain was a bit chaotic and mixed with various beings. Not all Demons communicated well, and some had unique circumstances, so it was best to keep a Heart Eye.
At the same time, he also paid attention to Miss Shinki’s situation.
After all, the girl was still somewhat childish, although Gu Mo felt that after explaining things clearly, it would just be a short-lived sulk, and things should quickly improve. However, the possibility of her dwelling on the issue couldn’t be ruled out, so he naturally had to remain adequately concerned...
Just as he said, despite not being of the same race, he was still happy to know Miss Shinki.
After all, he didn’t have many friends.
The dawn pierced through the lingering night like a sword, casting its light upon the earth. Not long after daybreak, from the direction of Demon Mountain, Tengus began flying over one after another, just as he had predicted.
The golden reputation was effective, and being the Tengu who couldn’t keep a secret, Miss Aya Shameimaru made a sensational impression when she returned last night.
Her firsthand account was the best and most direct advertisement; in this era, there was nothing more effective. It was like a depth charge exploding on Demon Mountain, causing huge waves. So, early in the morning, the Tengus swarmed in.
The fastest arrivals were the crow Tengus like Miss Wenwen.
They flew over at top speed to secure advantageous positions, and when the following Tengus arrived, they found a long line already formed near the Magic Ship.
Considering the high volume of guests, they couldn’t allow all to board for detailed discussions. Gu Mo had prepared in advance, setting up several reception points in the open space by the mooring area of the Magic Ship, with dolls busy at work.
He had enough dolls, plenty of Spell Scroll magic terminals, and ample open space by the shore...
But with some little tricks, he limited the number of reception windows, forcing the Tengus to queue up, instantly creating a wildly popular atmosphere...
As a result, the on-site atmosphere became even more lively.
This was only the Tengus who arrived; there was no sign of the demons yet, likely still drunk and asleep. And once the advertising effect spread, attracting other Demons and even those from underground to come—
Wow, this market really holds great potential.
Just imagining the scene gave Gu Mo a burst of energy. Standing on the deck of his two-masted Magic Ship, he held onto the railing, looking down at the bustling scene below, vibrant and orderly amidst the chaos, with Tengus seemingly very excited.
