Chapter 77 Fu Hua: Let’s Go and Grab a Man
"It's just... the sudden... um, headache you just had is very suspicious." Aponia didn't say her words too bluntly.
Well, she can't say to her friends, "I suspect you are mentally ill and you should go to the hospital for a check-up."
In return, Fu Hua said helplessly, "I'm fine, Aponia. I just felt a little uncomfortable for a moment."
"Besides, my 'cousin' just came to this city today, and I want to show her around." Fu Hua found a very appropriate reason that Aponia could not refuse.
After saying this, both of them turned their eyes to the Herrscher of Sentience, who was jumping around just out of the kitchen.
"Old antique! That guy called Kalpas is quite powerful. He actually hurt me!" Senti pointed to her forehead. There was a small wound on it that was less than the size of a fingernail.
Well, you could slightly see the redness of blood. The skin on the forehead was broken, and it almost bled...
In the kitchen, Kalpas was now lying peacefully on the chopping board.
It can only be said that this world's Kalpas is just an ordinary person, and it's already very remarkable to be able to achieve such a record. After all, in that world where Honkai exists, the Herrscher is in a sense a synonym for God.
"This is my cousin..." Fu Hua looked at the Herrscher of Sentience who came out of the kitchen and paused for a moment before continuing, "Her name is Fu Shi... You can also call her Senti."
At this moment, Senti acted like a big dog that had won a fight. She pretended to be indifferent and kept circling around Fu Hua, but in reality, she wanted Fu Hua to praise her.
"Your cousin... is really lively." Aponia glanced at Kalpas, who was still unconscious.
To be honest, it was the first time Aponia saw the always angry man so quiet. After being completely quiet, he even seemed a little cute?
"Well... In that case, I won't say much." It was obvious that Aponia seemed to sigh, "But no matter how anxious you are, it won't hurt to wait a little longer, right? I'll go get the medicine box..."
Ten minutes later...
Our great Lady Herrscher of Sentience had an extra Band-Aid on her forehead.
Aponia just stared blankly at the two people's backs as they walked away. She could vaguely hear some of their conversation.
"Where are we going next, old antique?"
"Next, we'll go find the captain..." Fu Hua pondered for a moment, then told Senti their next destination.
"But didn't Welt tell us that we should stay in this world for a while longer?" The Herrscher of Sentience said hesitantly, "Shouldn't we find a place to stay now?"
Fu Hua paused for a moment: "Senti, these two things are not actually in conflict."
"That's right." Our Herrscher of Sentience said with sudden enlightenment.
"And... we have to move quickly." Fu Hua looked solemnly at the street ahead.
In fact, Fu Hua knew very well in her heart that her biggest opponent on this trip was not others, but those "teammates" around her.
Fu Hua was very clear about this from the beginning... The so-called inner ghost was just a "teammate" who was faster than her in terms of progress...
"Senti, let me ask you a question." Fu Hua suddenly stopped, "Do you like the captain?"
"Old antique? Why are you asking that suddenly?" Senti stopped and looked at Fu Hua with a puzzled look, "Do I even need to tell you? Of course, I like him."
"He would play with me and buy me whatever delicious food I wanted..." Senti was listing the advantages of the captain's company. "Although he could be very strict sometimes, like when I picked a fight with others..."
Fu Hua's mouth curled up slightly: "So, Senti, do you want the captain to stay with us all the time?"
The Herrscher of Sentience squinted at Fu Hua and said, "Old antique, do you really think of me as a child?"
"If you want to marry the captain, just say so... don't use me as an excuse." She shouted without hesitation.
"Ahem..." Fu Hua didn't expect her little thoughts to be exposed so casually by the Herrscher of Sentience.
On the other side, Aponia, who was about to go back to check on Kalpas' situation, stopped.
She pricked up her ears...
'Did I just hear something extraordinary?' She pretended to tend to the flower beds and lawns on both sides of the door.
Aponia turned sideways and directed her ear towards Fu Hua, who was chatting not far away.
"Senti, keep your voice down!" Fu Hua looked around nervously, "Don't speak so loudly..."
At this moment, Aponia had cleverly lowered herself, using the flower bed and the half-open door to block her figure.
"What are you afraid of? There are no other outsiders here." The Herrscher of Sentience said, looking at the empty street.
Then she suddenly realized, "Are you afraid that another Valkyrie will snatch the captain away first? Don't worry, old antique, the captain likes me the most! As long as I find the captain! He'll definitely play with us!"
The Herrscher of Sentience patted her chest, as barren as Fu Hua's, and assured, "How does the saying go? Those who are involved are often confused... Old antique, you have to believe in the captain's feelings for us."
"Alas..." Fu Hua couldn't help but sigh, "Senti, you think it's too simple..."
"Senti, think about it. In this world, the captain is already married and has a wife. Even if we find the captain, it's foreseeable that the captain will definitely put his family first in his future life."
"He'll spend less time with us, including you, Senti..." Fu Hua said in a coaxing manner.
"Not to mention if the captain has children in the future. Then the captain will only play with his own flesh and blood and give all the delicious food to his own children..."
"No, that's unlikely. Could the captain be such a person? The captain likes me the most." Senti was successfully fooled by Fu Hua's trickery.
"Are you sure?" Fu Hua asked back.
"..." Just one sentence made the Herrscher of Sentience fall into deep thought.
Our Herrscher of Sentience never thought that this matter would be so complicated.
They just received the news from the captain and during the meeting not long ago.
The consensus in the brain about identifying treasures can be said to be quite simple.
