Chapter 368 The Blame Lies with You
When Broly and the others came out to greet her, Aqua, just like an old leader, stood with her hands behind her back, leading a group of goddesses and angels on a tour of the garden in front of the villa.
Yuuyu usually takes care of the garden, but in Aqua's words, it's as if she's the one who's managing it.
However, Aqua did take care of it, if watering it when she had the time and inclination counts as taking care of it.
"This is the Goddess of the Sword, this is the Goddess of the Forest, this is the Goddess of Misfortune..."
"It's the goddess of misfortune!"
"They all mean the same thing, don't worry about it too much."
The loli goddess, wrapped in black cloth and looking like a grieving girl, started complaining, but Aqua just shrugged at her complaints.
After introducing the goddesses and angels of the lower realm to the group of people who came, she also introduced Broly and the others to them.
"These are my faithful followers in the lower realms~"
Aqua pointed at Yu-Yu and Megumin. Megumin wanted to retort that she was not a follower of the Axis Cult, but Yu-Yu covered her mouth and whispered in her ear that she should give Aqua some face in front of her subordinates.
"This is my adorable disciple, Broly. He possesses immense power and the extraordinary wisdom I bestowed upon him, which saved this world from being ravaged by the Demon King."
Aqua then picked up the Saiyan boy again, showing him off to the other goddesses and angels.
"Ah, it's Lord Broly!"
The goddesses and angels exclaimed in surprise. The origin of the Heavenly Holiday is well known to all the gods. It was a very precious wish made by a brave disciple of the great water goddess in order to show his love for his goddess master.
Aqua, out of pity for the other goddesses' tireless hard work, was willing to share her own happy vacation with them. Only after gaining the approval of the gods did this extend to all the goddesses.
The goddesses and angels were quite curious about the other protagonist of this holiday's origin and held a considerable degree of affection for him.
"Alright, let my followers and Eris entertain you first. I have other important matters to discuss with my disciple. See you later."
Aqua left a group of goddesses and angels to Eris and Yuuyu to entertain, then carried Broly to a corner.
"So, is there anything suitable?"
Aqua asked in a low voice. She was very confident. If beautiful women had a higher chance of becoming Broly's wife, then none of the goddesses and angels who were abducted to the mortal world were bad-looking. They were all rare beauties in the human world.
Especially the Forest Goddess, who possesses a rare breadth of bosom among goddesses, and in terms of shape, size, and pertness, Aqua admits to being inferior.
If you don't like anything too big, then the Goddess of Swords is also a good choice. She often trains her martial arts in the celestial realm, and her skin is incredibly firm and elastic. Although her chest isn't large, it's real and completely different from Eris's padded chest; it's the kind that you can hold in your hand.
What? You like small ones? That's fine too. The Unlucky Goddess is exactly that type. She's a loli, timid, and a little socially awkward. When it comes to receiving the dead, she's in charge of those autistic or shut-in types. She's a delicate little goddess who wouldn't dare to speak up even if she was bullied.
……
With so many goddesses and angels, Aqua felt that there must be one or two suitable candidates to become her disciple's new wife.
"No, there isn't a single wife here."
However, Broly's answer made her pick her ear.
"What did you say? There's not a single one suitable to join Crystal Palace?"
Aqua asked in disbelief.
"Um."
Broly nodded. Crystal Palace wasn't looking at the quality of the women, but rather whether they had figurines or statues.
"Damn it, the conditions are so harsh."
Aqua became somewhat angry, and began to blame the goddesses and angels who had been abducted from the heavens for their lack of ambition, as none of them had gained the recognition of the Crystal Palace.
"Alright, alright, you can all go back to the Heavenly Realm now."
While Yuu was discussing flower cultivation tips with the Forest Goddess, she suddenly saw Aqua walk over and say these words.
"Eh, Lady Aqua, didn't you say you wanted us to have a picnic in the mortal realm, and that you had any other instructions for us?"
One of the angels asked, somewhat puzzled.
"I did have some, but now I realize you two aren't a good match. As for gatherings and such, I suddenly realized I don't have any extra food at home."
Aqua's attitude was incredibly honest; after discovering that her subordinate goddesses and angels were utterly useless, she simply treated them as freeloaders.
Upon hearing this, the group of goddesses and angels exchanged bewildered glances, while Youyou looked puzzled: "Didn't I buy a lot of food this morning?"
"Can't you see? None of the goddesses and angels here have gained the Crystal Palace's approval. Aqua is trying to drive them away!"
Huihui pursed her lips. With her own moral standards not being very high either, she was surprisingly able to understand Aqua's thought process at this moment.
Of course, Huihui didn't say what she really thought, only that she felt Aqua's behavior was really stingy and shameful.
"Alright, alright, Lady Aqua, we're having a banquet tonight! It won't be lively enough if there aren't enough people attending!"
However, Megumin also had a way to deal with the situation, and she walked over and said to Aqua.
"Oh, you're having a banquet? Well, then there's nothing I can do."
Aqua, who originally intended to send the gods back to the heavens, suddenly changed her attitude and revealed a look that said, "Consider yourselves lucky."
"Then you can stay and leave after the banquet!"
The goddess of water is also the goddess of banquets, and Aqua loves lively banquets the most.
What? You ask if I like excitement? Then why did I chase the gods away?
Of course, in Aqua’s mind, a meal and a banquet are two different things.
Aqua is both stingy and generous, saving money wherever she pleases.
Evening arrived quickly, and the banquet began in the courtyard of the annex.
Besides the goddesses and angels, the guests at the banquet also included Princess Alice and the female guards and attendants brought by the other party.
"Come, everyone, let me have a taste. This is a fine wine I sourced from the hot spring capital last time. I heard it's been stored in the shop's cellar for over fifteen years!"
A basket of wine, containing eight million Eris, was brought to the table. Aqua, the goddess who becomes incredibly generous at banquets, opened the lid and personally poured the wine for the gods and angels.
"Come on, everyone, drink to your heart's content!"
Aqua hosted the group.
"I can't say about other things, but Aqua's appreciation for wine is quite good."
Darkness took a sip and praised it.
"Hmph, that's all she has to offer in terms of praise~"
Huihui said, swirling her wine glass.
"Why can't I still drink it?"
Broly was puzzled when Aqua poured him a glass of juice instead of a drink.
"Because thirteen is still a child, you have to be at least sixteen to drink alcohol."
Youyou blushed as she answered that she wasn't a big drinker; her face would react after just one glass.
Fortunately, the maids that Princess Alice brought helped her prepare food for the aftermath of the banquet.
"Aqua is really something, throwing a party before Wiz even got back!"
Darkness, dressed in a white evening gown, began to complain.
Her relationship with Wiz is considered relatively good.
Even though Wiz is back, he doesn't eat much.
Aqua came over with a bottle of wine, filled the empty glass in the knight girl's hand, and then answered her question.
Liches do not eat normal food, but they can eat it if they want. Broly can infuse Wiz with enough life energy to temporarily activate Wiz's lich body, making him feel like a normal living person.
"Wiz is back."
"Speak of the lich, and the lich will appear," Broly pointed outside.
Those around him looked over and saw Wiz walking across the street from the other side, accompanied by a masked demon.
"Hey, that bastard Barnier, what's he doing here too?"
Upon seeing Banir, even Aqua, who was usually welcoming to everyone at the banquet, couldn't help but show a hint of disdain on her face.
"Ugh, this overwhelming smell of the heavens is just like the stench of a cesspool that's been fermenting for ages in the summer!"
As soon as he approached the annex, Banir covered his nose.
"Hey, what kind of maggot from hell dares to spout nonsense at my doorstep?"
Aqua, who came out carrying a bottle of liquor, immediately retorted upon hearing this.
"Oh, so this is the great leech goddess! No wonder the latrine smells so bad!"
"What did you say?"
"Stop, I'm not here to visit you."
As Barnier spoke, he looked at the Saiyan boy beside him.
"It's been a long time, Lord Broly."
He greeted Broly.
"Barnier, I heard you've been helping run the magic item shop. The fact that Wiz's magic item shop has been profitable all these years is thanks to your help. Thank you."
Broly thanked Him.
"Not at all, it's all I should do. If you really want to thank me, then give me some of your negative emotions!"
This book has a brand new chapter.
Let's take a look!
Barnier bowed and said.
"Hey, my Broly is always happy, he doesn't have any negative emotions for you parasites to suck!"
Aqua immediately interrupted.
"Of course I have one. I just haven't found a new wife in this world, have I?"
Barnier said loudly, then took a deep breath.
"Ugh, cough cough... Damn it, I forgot there's still celestial energy here!"
The Grand Duke of Hell cursed, succeeding in exploiting the Saiyan boy's negative emotions, but this was accompanied by a heavy aura of the Heavenly Realm.
The feeling was like eating delicious fried chicken in an uncleaned public toilet; the smell caused Barnier's expression to change.
"Hahaha, you maggot from hell, sucking up other people's negative emotions, now feel the sacred purifying aura of heaven, don't you!"
Aqua laughed heartily.
"What are you laughing at? You're someone who's worried about not keeping her disciple in this world for too long, fearing others might see her as an unloved, lonely old goddess!"
"How did you know...?"
"Hahaha, don't forget I am the all-seeing demon Banir. I can see all your past, present, and future fears, shame, and worries clearly through these eyes. And I hereby assert, well, your fears will become reality in the future, in the future, Your Highness the Empty Nest Goddess!"
"Ah, divine purification~"
Enraged, Aqua unleashed a purification spell on the masked demon.
"Escape Techniques Using Masks!"
In response, Barnier removed the mask and threw it to the other side. His body was purified into fragments, but where he threw the mask, a new clay body was reconstructed.
"How could your slow purification magic possibly hit..."
Barnier's voice suddenly stopped.
"When...?"
The white mask on His face was suddenly split in two.
"Instant Slash~"
The Goddess of Swords appeared behind the Grand Duke of Hell at some unknown time, her hand gripping the hilt of her sword, clearly already unleashing a strike.
"Damn celestial goddess, I will return from hell!"
Leaving behind his classic villainous lines, Barnir, the Grand Duke of Hell, vanished from the spot.
"Ah, Mr. Barnier..."
Wiz exclaimed in surprise, and the Goddess of Swords looked at her.
"Lich?"
The Goddess of Swords frowned, about to make a move, but sensed another crisis.
"Um?"
Turning his head to look in the direction from which the crisis was coming, he saw Broly staring at him.
The boy's presence completely changed in her mind; he was like a ferocious beast about to unleash its power.
If I dare to continue making a move, I will be caught and torn to pieces by the other party first.
"This is Wiz. Although she is not my follower, she is a good lich. She often helps purify the dead in this world, which increases Eris's workload by at least three times. When Eris sees her, he gives her a thumbs up and says 'good'."
Aqua then began to explain.
"But how could she be associating with the Grand Duke of Hell?"
The Goddess of Swords frowned.
"Don't get me wrong, these aren't mixed together. That hell bug was once defeated by my disciple and is currently working for this lich."
To be honest, your sword strike damaged my disciple's property. If you weren't unacknowledged, I would definitely make you compensate for this loss right now.
Aqua refers to the kind of wife who repays her husband's debts with her body. Although she can't repay her debts with her body now, the fact that Barnier was humiliated and killed still puts her in a good mood.
Before her subordinate, the Goddess of Swords, could ask any further questions, she pushed her back to the banquet, where music and dance resumed.
"Watch this, the ultimate floral and bird romance!"
Although the dancers and musicians were both Aqua, her acrobatic master boss.
My boss put on a show for me, personally pouring me wine and urging me to drink...
After the banquet, the goddess and angels were sent back, but their approval of Aqua seemed to have increased.
"Since everyone is going back, I'll go back too."
Eris tried to sneak back to the heavens, but Aqua grabbed her by the back of her collar.
"Ha, how could I let you go back? You're the one who's been approved..."
Aqua let out a burp.
"Stay here obediently, and all the blame for what happened to everyone else will fall on you. Make me even happier!"
Aqua was drunk, but she didn't seem drunk at all.
She was taking advantage of Eris, wanting her to shoulder the responsibilities that other goddesses and angels, who were not recognized as wives by the Crystal Palace, would have.
"No, Aqua-senpai, how can you be so unreasonable~"
Lady Luck was on the verge of tears, but she was still forced to stay.
At night, Aqua even used it as a body pillow and slept with it.
"Broly, come to our village tomorrow. They often write to ask me and Megumin about you."
Youyou said, her face flushed.
"Okay, sure."
Broly agreed.
"Very good."
The girl was very happy and leaned over to give the boy a big kiss on the cheek.
"Ah, Youyou, how dare you..."
Huihui wanted to say something, but after giving Youyou a kiss, Youyou fell asleep immediately.
Seeing Youyou sleeping with a happy expression, Huihui swallowed back the words she was about to say.
"I'll tell you more about it tomorrow..."
Huihui grunted like a little pig, not vying for the center position to sleep face-to-face tonight.
He lay back down behind Broly, reached out and straddled the boy from behind to hug him, but also used Broly as a pillow.
