I am so touched, so touched that Su'er wants to reward Jibril with a small red flower.
So you F-ing get away from the Divine Core!
Pa!
He slapped Jibril's outstretched hand without hesitation. If he didn't give this woman a heavy punch to wake her up, Su'er suspected that this drooling, ungraceful guy would open up space and transport this Divine Core away in the next second.
"Tsk," Jibril pouted her mouth in dissatisfaction and snorted coldly, "You haven't given up after so long. I'll praise you for your patience, but you'd better hurry up. That weed seems to have some plans too."
"Ah? Think?" Su'er was slightly stunned.
"I'm leaving~, by the way, my power is about to recover. When that happens, I'll show you what I've got~," Without any further explanation, Jibril disappeared in the blink of an eye, leaving only a sentence behind.
Except for the sound of the continuous waves crashing against the rocks and the beach, it returned to its original silence here.
"Sigh... You heard it too, right?" Su'er sighed a long sigh, feeling a little dry in his mouth, "Those two guys don't know what bad things they are preparing. Give me some reaction, brother."
Well... The six months of mental illness-like self-talk made Su'er's words much more relaxed when he was about to run out of things to say.
If it weren't for Think and Jibril who would come and talk to him from time to time, he would really suspect that he would get some kind of schizophrenia. The feeling of having to find a topic to ask and answer himself from morning to night is really not something that can be completely summarized by a single stand-up comedy.
There were several times when Su'er even heard the answer from this Old Deus, but after the ecstasy, when he calmed down, he only realized later that it was just a voice he had made up in his mind.
With a black appearance, he originally thought it was a regular sphere, but when it was moved to the island, he found that it was a vase shape. What he saw before was just its bottom. The surface was extremely hard. Su'er had also been bold enough to smear his blood on it under extreme daring, but no new changes appeared.
[...None...]
The voice echoed faintly in this world, with an echo in its emptiness, and the gender could not be distinguished.
"Ah~, here it comes again, here it comes again. It's not like I haven't said it. Last time, when I called Think over in such a fuss, I was scolded a lot... Don't play with me..." Holding the fishing rod he made, Su'er muttered and cast the fishing line.
It was basically impossible to catch anything. It was just to relieve boredom.
[... Vain ...]
This time, he heard it clearly, and it even formed a complete word, spoken in the language of the Elf.
"Here it comes again, here it comes again. Isn't it just fishing?! How is it Useless! Even as a subconscious, don't look down on a fishing enthusiast so much... Don't you know you'll get scolded?" Su'er, who was already used to this rhythm of talking to himself, laughed easily, "Speaking of which, the voice I fantasized about this time has a lot of flavor? It really has the same flavor as when an Old Deus speaks, haha, so this kind of fantasy will also automatically improve?"
[...Witless...]
"Hey, hey, hey, don't scold people. How can you scold yourself... Hmm?" Su'er looked to his left in surprise. Jibril, who had just disappeared there, reappeared in a sound like breaking glass. The pink-haired loli's eyes widened in shock, and her mouth was slightly ajar.
Realizing something in an instant, Su'er suddenly became so excited that his body trembled. Jibril's expression at this moment was too convincing, which meant that this voice, which seemed to exist directly between heaven and earth... was not his fantasy?!
"Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah!!!"
This Old Deus finally agreed to speak!
"Quick, quickly call Think back!!"
Running towards the house, Su'er had to inform that woman as soon as possible.
The Divine Core has come to life!
"Generally speaking, I call this method 'talk therapy.' It seems to be working now?"
It was a rare moment of pride for Su'er, and he was very satisfied with the success of his talk. An Old Deus that was so reclusive that it refused to communicate began to respond to him. This was a huge success.
To be honest, even with his state of mind, he felt so emotional that the corners of his eyes became moist. When he thought about it this way, he seemed to be able to understand the silly Siren god who was so angry that she cried and ran home who knows how many years ago.
"Even if you say that, it has been silent since I came back, you know?" Think pressed one hand on the surface of the Divine Core, turned her head, and said doubtfully, "Is this another hallucination of Mr. Monkey?"
"Absolutely not!" After half a year of hard work, he finally saw the results. Although the Old Deus didn't say anything good, it did react. Su'er would never allow this success to be erased!
"If you don't believe me, ask Jibril!! She was there too! She heard it too!!"
"Ah~~~, yes~~, and Miss Monster~," Think's voice was choppy, like she was on a roller coaster, "You two aren't colluding to trick me, are you?"
"What are you thinking? Why would I trick you?" Su'er rolled his eyes in annoyance. This Elf was really talking stranger and stranger.
"Hah~, I don't think you'd dare," Think chuckled and began to engrave spell formulas on the surface of the Divine Core and the surrounding space.
The Elf words, which flashed with light, were fixed in the air along Think's fingertips. The unfolding spell formula had a unique beauty. At the very least, Su'er said he was very satisfied with what he saw.
"Hello? Can you speak again?"
Standing on the edge of the spell formula, Su'er asked tentatively again.
However, there was no response. If Jibril hadn't repeatedly said that she also heard it, Su'er would have almost doubted himself.
"It's useless. When I went back this time, I asked my subordinate to ask that useless Cainus from the side. I have some understanding of the state of this Old Deus now~," While quickly carving the spell formula, the spreading magic formation had even extended from the air to the ground. Think casually stopped Su'er's Useless actions.
"Huh? How so?"
"To put it simply~, it's probably the remains left by an Old Deus that was once active~," Think recalled slowly.
"Remains?"
"That's right. To be more accurate, it's... well... it's the Divine Core that the Old Deus left behind after her death... Therefore, it's completely different from those unactivated Divine Cores."
