Oh no!
Soone’s peeping at !
Upon sensing the presence of the Sun Goddess, Herbert felt utterly uneasy.
Uh oh!
You too, huh?
Ah haha, oh well, isn’t this a coincidence?
Uh, what a coincidence, indeed, hahaha... ahem.
Herbert was half-subrged in the pool, frozen mid-action, his mouth twitching slightly and his eyes slowly squinting.
He gazed at his reflection in the water, montarily at a loss for words.
Not only are you a "Bald-Headed Girl," you’re also a "Below-the-Belt Girl!"
Below-the-belt!
Absolutely below-the-belt!
To prove your innocence, your only option now is to declare you’re just playing with a sword...
Only a few breaths had passed outside, yet Herbert had internally griped quite a lot.
Nonetheless, re griping wouldn’t help, and avoidance wouldn’t solve the problem.
So, what approach should be used to dissolve this awkward situation?
"Have you eaten?"
No, that’s too polite.
"Are you here for a bath too?"
No, that’s too blunt.
"How about... all of us together?"
Well, that’s possible, but it feels a bit too rude.
While Herbert pondered the solution, he simultaneously criticized the current scene.
Setting aside the premise that I barged into your sanctuary for a lovebird bath, aren’t you the one in the wrong?
You, the Below-the-Belt Girl, are so un-righteous, springing a surprise attack, huh?
Satisfied with making the situation like this?
Besides, the current scene...
You can’t call it anything but awkward.
Really awkward!
However, aside from the awkwardness, Herbert’s curiosity grew stronger.
But this situation is bizarre.
This doesn’t make sense!
Shouldn’t the elderly Sun Goddess currently be in slumber?
Why’s she here peeping at bathing?
So full of energy?
The reason Herbert dared to co here, to be reckless in the Sun Sanctuary, was because he was certain the Sun Goddess wouldn’t react.
Or rather, he bet she wouldn’t notice.
Hidden truths under the lamp, quite thrilling.
Previously, when the Sun Goddess’s consciousness descended into Herbert, aside from Miss Xie Shen concealing herself, most of his secrets were exposed to the divine eye.
Overwhelming physique, various blessings, extraordinary talents... all fell under the Sun Goddess’s scrutiny.
But this wasn’t a unilateral transparency.
When the abyss gazes into you, you’re also gazing into the abyss.
Just as force and reaction are mutual, Herbert, while being watched, also inversely glimpsed so clues.
The Sun Goddess’s situation was also sowhat noticed by Herbert.
So truths unknown to outsiders.
For example, why the Sun God would send a divine descent instead of acting himself, the common belief was that the Sun God deed it beneath him to intervene personally.
Because he’s too lazy to dirty his own hands, he uses such an arrogant thod to make his Divine Favorer serve as a tool.
In other words, in their eyes, Herbert played the role of the outer layer...a glove.

But this is not the truth.
As the involved tool person, Herbert knows more details.
Didn’t Alberta want to smash the annoying bugs with a slap?
She did.
It’s not that she didn’t want to; she couldn’t—at least not easily.
The Sun’s true self actually remains in a special state of slumber, and now wandering in the Holy City of Radiance is just one strand of her half-asleep consciousness.
Even this strand of yet-to-sleep consciousness, the Sun God can’t guarantee staying conscious, spending most ti unconsciously roaming the city.
And the previous battle with the Evil God already exhausted most of her consciousness, inevitably slipping back into slumber after leaving Herbert.
This is not Herbert’s own speculation; he’s not that capable.
These were actually swiftly conveyed to him by Nenasha when Alberta montarily departed post-battle when Herbert was still outside the city.
Nenasha wouldn’t deceive , right?
"... ..."
Herbert pondered deeply, growing more uncertain, inwardly thinking: "... no, if it’s her, it’s really hard to say."
What ill intentions could Miss Xie Shen harbor?
She just wants more fun.
While Herbert was awkwardly pondering solutions, he felt soone pat his shoulder.
"Hey!"
Next, a large face abruptly appeared closely beside him.
Hungry Dragon pokes head!
Valentina, puzzled, poked her head from behind the stiff Herbert, nudging him with her cheek, curiously asking: "Hey hey hey! Why did you suddenly stop talking?"
Miss Hungry Dragon is worried about you.JPG
From her perspective, Herbert was waving at her one second and went stiff—stiffened stiff—the next.
So strange.
Valentina, reasoning from her viewpoint, helped Herbert co to a reasonable explanation.
Indeed.
He must be hungry.
Humph, fortunately I’m well-prepared!
"Are you hungry? Don’t worry, I have food here!"
She spoke proudly while pulling out a yogurt bar with one bite missing, generously offering it to Herbert’s lips.
Hey, take a bite.
"...Hmm?"
Herbert was left dumbfounded by Valentina’s unexpected combo, sowhat dazed as he looked at the yogurt bar in front of him.
