Suddenly, the pavilion courtyard was slashed with countless dense marks, and even the space itself showed signs of breaking. The girl's phantom repeated Angelina's previous moves, gracefully twisting and turning, while the air humd with high-frequency vibrations. White slash marks spread open like reeds in distress!
": She's so cool."
": Damn, I'm actually a bit dazzled by her."
": Is this still the Abyssal White Flower I know?"
": You're not the Abyssal White Flower at all, who on earth are you?"
Barrage comnts flew across the screen as Angelina calmly withdrew her blade and returned to the center of the crowd, casting a quick, proud glance at Bai Youyou, who directly ignored her provocation.
"Congratulations to your team 'Light Chasing Garden' for winning this transgression battle visit, earning 100 victory points and 100 performance points. The current total score is 400."
"Three matches remaining." Xu Xiaoyou held up three fingers.
"It's my turn, it's my turn!" Chichu Chun seed a bit excited, "Am I supposed to go first next, or is it Sister Tang?"
"Are you okay with that?" Xu Xiaoyou asked Tang Xin.
She was the only one among them who hadn't reached the Three Tier yet, a variable in this qualifier match.
Tang Xin shook her head, "Don't worry, You, I've already found my goal."
"Alright." Xu Xiaoyou nodded.
The five of them left the battle space once again.
The perspective shifted to the red-haired girl, where under the shelter of the eaves, a few peach blossoms were blown off the branches, tracing gentle arcs in the air, passing through a mossy alley, and falling into the small courtyard.
In the courtyard, Chichu Chun played hopscotch with a few children, hopping sotis on one foot, sotis on two. The children's innocent and playful laughter echoed from the courtyard.
"Hop, hopscotch."
"In January, hop into the plum blossom house,"
"Hop, hopscotch."
"In February, hop into the apricot flower village."
"Hop, hopscotch."
"In March, hop into the Peach Blossom Spring."
"Hop, hopscotch."
"No Taboos, strong and healthy body."
"Sister, slow down, we can't keep up." A little girl panted, nearly losing her balance, wobbling until Chichu Chun swiftly caught her, preventing her from falling to the ground.
The little girl poked her head out of Chichu Chun's embrace, eting her lively big eyes, and both burst into laughter.
"Little Kui always holds us back!"
A few children gathered around, pointing and comnting.
"Yeah, yeah, next ti we won't let you play."
"Cough cough cough, I'm sorry."
The little girl apologized, and upon closer inspection, her complexion was a sickly pale, her small palm-sized face like a porcelain doll, presumably having been ill from a young age, she would cough with even the slightest exertion.
"Alright, you guys too, don't bully others." Chichu Chun stood up with hands on hips, "It's just a ga, ant for having fun and playing happily, being so competitive misses the point of playing gas, doesn't it?"
Seeing the girl raise her eyebrows, the kids stood in the corner, shrinking their shoulders, nodding obediently under her rebuke.
"What's more, she's sick, can't you be a little more considerate?" Chichu Chun pointed her index finger, poking each child on the forehead.
"If you got sick too, and no kids were willing to play with you, you'd have to stay ho watching others play, would you feel good?"
"Sotis you have to think for others too, right?"
The children nodded mutely.
Chichu Chun was all righteous and stern.
In truth, she was the most competitive one, refusing defeat in either the Insect Race Star Sea or the King of Fighters Arcade. She vaguely rembered her brother winning against her the first ti he tried the arcade, and she had pestered him relentlessly for a rematch, which he eventually agreed to after much persistence.
She did win later, but thinking back now, her brother's moves were full of flaws, far inferior to the first ti. Perhaps he let her win?
Otherwise, she'd still be brooding over it now.
Thinking of her brother, Chichu Chun let her face droop.
A boring childhood can turn into a lonely adulthood, wouldn't that be awful?
She didn't wish for the kids to grow into boring adults like her brother.
Though she knew these children were just cold data, seeing their woeful little faces filled her with unspoken sadness, wanting to cheer them up. Perhaps she saw a reflection of herself in them?
"Alright everyone, ti for lunch, don't worry your parents." Chichu Chun gently told them.
"So, sister, can we play here again this afternoon?" A child asked shyly.
Chichu Chun was caught off guard, realizing they all looked at her expectantly, their little faces dusty, eyes shimring with so kind of hope.
To these kids, having a lively, cheerful, kind-spoken sister willing to play with them was like a little sun entering their mundane lives.
"Will sister suddenly disappear?"
"We still want to play with sister."
"We'll co back quickly after lunch..."
"What nonsense, off you go now." Chichu Chun waved her hand gently.
The children left reluctantly, little faces downcast.
Chichu Chun sighed softly, and turned around, her eyes frosting over with coldness.
"Show yourselves."
At that mont, a few figures with a strong aura stepped out, wearing bright platinum-like robes of indiscernible origin, its cross emblem mimicking that of Life Daylight, proudly displayed on their chests, noticeable wherever they went.
"We are mbers of the 'Saviors'." The tall figure leading them spoke, voice cold like the grinding of gears.
"Oh, and?" Chichu Chun raised her eyebrow.
"Congratulations, beautiful lady, we've chosen you for your pure and kind spirit. You've been selected as the Saintess of the Saviors. You will be shrouded in glory, lead us through shining tis, and guide us to vanquish all evil, to liberate people from this sullied world just as the prophecy foretells."
"Sounds pretty good. How many of you are there?" Chichu Chun nodded.
"As you can see." The leader replied.
"Five people? That's fewer than I expected." Chichu Chun shrugged.
"What do you think?"
Is it a cri to hit a ntally ill person?
Chichu Chun couldn't help pondering the question.
Where did these five guys, claiming to be Saviors, pop out from?
Wearing a set of high-fakes of the Red Cross Expeditionary Army missionary clothes, not even bothering to customize a unique logo, randomly asking a young beautiful girl if she wants to be a Saintess... No, according to them, she has been chosen, and should feel honored?
What's wrong with these people!?
Chichu Chun was flustered.
She held her forehead, oh well, there are too many crazy people in this world, it's impossible to deal with them all one by one.
Chichu Chun picked up a rock from the ground, weighed it in her hand twice.
"Have you decided..."
The red-haired girl had given no response for quite a while, and the man was getting impatient. But before he could finish his sentence, a rock hit his forehead as Chichu Chun maintained a stance like she had just mimicked Pikachu's throw.
"Taste my transgression battle visit!"
