After bidding farewell to Atalanta, she turned into spots of light and disappeared before everyone's eyes.
"That girl left really fast."
Seeing this, Euryale couldn't help sighing.
"Yeah, clearly being my believer, she didn't even say a few more words to me!"
Artemis puffed out her cheeks, looking unhappy.
"..."
Hearing this, Orion wiped the sweat from his forehead.
I think it's more because she couldn't accept that the deity she believed in was a hopeless love-brain. To avoid affecting her impression of her own deity, she left so hurriedly!
"Hmm?"
Suddenly feeling someone was speaking ill of her, Artemis looked around suspiciously.
Orion was startled by her sudden movement, breaking out in a cold sweat—although a plush toy body couldn't sweat, haha...
"Since everyone is leaving... Master, could I trouble you to squat down?"
Euryale said, looking at Takumi.
"Uh, squat down for what?"
Takumi asked somewhat puzzledly.
"It's a reward for working hard to protect me during this time. Hurry up and squat down."
"Ah? Oh..."
Realizing something, Takumi's fair face turned red instantly. Under Goddess-sama's urging, he slowly squatted in front of her.
Feeling somewhat embarrassed and shy in his heart, but also somewhat... expectant?
Looking at Takumi's eyes dodging but carrying a hint of expectation, Euryale couldn't help smiling.
Then she cupped Takumi's face with both hands.
"This is a gift from the Goddess. Accept it with gratitude, my favorite Master."
After speaking, Euryale closed her eyes slightly and kissed Takumi on his right cheek.
"Mwah~"
Goddess-sama's exquisite and flawless face gradually approached. Takumi only felt a soft touch, slightly moist, gently touching his face, and the pleasant fragrance unique to Euryale invading his nostrils.
His brain went blank for a moment, and his whole being floated on air.
Charmed~
If this were in a game, pink words would probably appear above Takumi's head.
Seeing the scene she wanted to see appear, Euryale couldn't help but put on a teasing smile.
As a Goddess, she wasn't just beautiful. The charm effect applied to her arrows could also be displayed a bit through actions like this!
Looking at the dizzy Takumi, Euryale continued:
"Also, for Asterios's share, his power should still be on you, right?"
Hearing Euryale's voice, Takumi came back to his senses and nodded.
"That's good... Hmm, you really took a big advantage, actually receiving the Goddess's second gift indirectly."
"But it doesn't matter. Treat it as a gift for your hard work for so long."
"Continue to be grateful!"
Euryale said with a smile, her beautiful head leaning close again.
"Thank you for your hard work, Asterios. This is a reward for you~"
Euryale's gaze was gentle, lightly pecking Takumi's face.
This time it was on the left cheek.
After the kiss, the broken Spirit Origin in Takumi's body finally shattered, signifying that Asterios's last trace in this Singularity disappeared.
Seeming to also feel the change within, Euryale breathed a sigh of relief.
Only Takumi was somewhat awkwardly unsure where to put his hands.
'Does no one feel this kind of thing is a bit weird...'
"Boohoo, clearly everyone is on the same ship. You rewarded Asterios and Mimi, but there's no share for me? I'm going to cry..."
Drake obviously didn't care about such small matters. Putting on an act directly, she started wiping tears.
At the same time, she secretly observed Euryale's expression through the gaps between her fingers.
"Why do you suddenly become childish like a kid at a time like this?"
Euryale was also defeated by Drake, holding her forehead, looking like "I give up on you."
"Actually, I'm also still a child!"
Drake put down her hand and said seriously.
"Yes, yes. Since it's like this, you squat down too. You are so tall I can't reach."
Euryale said helplessly.
Seeing this, Drake grinned happily, squatting down quickly, deliberately turning the left half of her face towards Euryale.
"This is a reward for you, my dear Captain."
"Mwah~"
After being kissed, Drake ran to Takumi's side to snicker.
"Boohoo! And mine too! Eury-chan kiss me too!"
Artemis also ran over to join the fun, looking pitifully at Euryale.
"Okay, okay, kiss you too~"
Euryale was even more helpless but still cooperated and kissed Artemis on the cheek.
Artemis trotted to stand beside Drake and started giggling.
As a Goddess, she seemed not only a love-brain but also a bit of a goofball.
"Cry cry, then can you kiss me too?"
Orion pretended to cry, looking expectantly at Euryale.
Responding to him was Euryale's gaze filled with coldness and disgust.
And the familiar, destined suffocation of his neck being pinched by terrifying strength.
"Darling~"
"Whoa! I know, I know! I will apologize! So don't use me to grind against the tree——!"
Orion's wailing resounded through the surrounding space again.
David: "What about me? Can I..."
Euryale: "No, get lost."
"Oh."
David walked aggrievedly to Takumi's side, maintaining the formation.
"Then goodbye for now, Eury-chan and everyone. Darling and I still have a lot to talk about, so we won't disturb everyone here~"
"I don't want to talk!"
Before Orion could finish speaking, Artemis took him directly and exited.
Seeing this, Takumi slowly lowered the hand he had just raised, simultaneously using the other hand to wipe the non-existent cold sweat from his forehead.
"Artemis left too... I had a lot of fun with you guys, but all good things must come to an end. We can only wait to meet again next time."
Euryale looked in the direction Artemis disappeared, saying regretfully to Takumi and Drake.
"Mmh, goodbye."
Takumi waved his hand, smiling at Euryale.
"Goodbye. If we meet again next time, let's have another big adventure!"
Drake hugged Takumi, waving at Euryale as well, a hearty smile on her face.
"There will be a chance."
Recalling the experience of going to the sky and entering the sea while clearly on a ship, the corners of Euryale's mouth curled up involuntarily.
"Also, do your best, my Master..."
Turning to look at Takumi, Euryale encouraged gently.
Then she turned into spots of light and disappeared.
"All gone, huh? Then I also..."
Looking at the surroundings which were lively just a moment ago but suddenly became empty in no time, David sighed with some emotion.
"Wait, Mr. David! I have some questions... I want to ask you..."
David was just about to follow suit and exit when Takumi suddenly spoke up to interrupt his movement.
