Chapter 493: The Final Peace, Let's Party
Hakuto turned his head and looked at Erina and the other two. “What’s up? Something on your minds?”
“You…”
Before Erina could finish speaking, the doorbell rang, and then Yukino and Haruno appeared outside the door.
“You’re here. Just wait a moment. Other people will be coming too.”
Rindo looked at Hakuto. “What are you doing?”
“A party. Throwing a party, understand? I’ve already chosen the location—right under the Sacred Sakura Tree.”
After all, there might not be such peaceful days in the future. So while things were still calm, Hakuto naturally wanted to gather everyone together to enjoy what might be the final peace.
Upon hearing this, Rindo’s face was full of resentment. “Why didn’t you just say so? I thought you were going to eat everything alone!”
“If you had trusted me, you wouldn’t have thought that way. But you don’t believe me, so what can I do? I haven’t even said anything about you, and you’re already playing the victim.”
Rindo was clearly struck a chord by Hakuto’s words and immediately felt guilty. Beside her, Erina and Alice also felt somewhat guilty.
Hakuto glanced at Alice, Erina, and Rindo. “Go outside and wait.”
Clearly, none of them had the courage at this moment to oppose what Hakuto said. After all, they had just misunderstood him. Now that he was only asking them to go outside and sit, how could they possibly refuse?
They obediently walked out. Then, facing the gazes of the others, the three looked extremely embarrassed.
“That Hakuto really knows how to do things. Don’t mind him. He did it on purpose.”
Even if it was intentional, being fooled by Hakuto still left Erina and the others extremely embarrassed.
Yukino sighed helplessly. Wasn’t Hakuto afraid that they would actually get into a fight with him over this?
After a silent complaint, Yukino changed the subject. “Speaking of which, have you noticed that Hakuto seems to have something on his mind?”
“It should be about the Nine Provinces Barrier. The Nine Provinces Barrier probably…”
“We need to find ways to increase our strength too.”
Everyone spoke in turn. They gradually guessed what Hakuto was thinking. He was nothing more than worried that things might become uncontrollable later, with everyone scattered far apart, so he wanted to bring everyone together for a gathering.
Soon, the others arrived as well. Then Hakuto took out the Anywhere Door and appeared directly under the Sacred Sakura Tree.
There stood the Sacred Sakura Tree, along with Makoto and Ei, who had been waiting there for a long time, plus Yae Miko and Kikyo.
“I’ll go get Boss Bai and Honghong and her sisters.”
Hakuto took out the Anywhere Door and soon brought everyone back.
“With this harem of three palaces and six courtyards, can you handle it all?”
Looking at the girls present, the contemptible fox Yae Miko smiled mischievously and teased Hakuto.
“None of your concern.”
Hakuto rolled his eyes. Then he went and brought Tifa, Alice, Wanda, Morgan, and Artoria as well.
After everyone had gathered, Hakuto told them about the Nine Provinces Barrier.
“Later, you will probably encounter some dangers. So I want you to have a certain ability to protect yourselves.”
“So, Ophis, give them your snakes.”
Ophis put down her game console and nodded. Then she spread her palms, and purple snakes emerged from her hands.
“How do we use these? Eating them feels kind of gross.”
Looking at the snakes in Ophis’s hands, Alice said with some disgust. Hakuto rolled his eyes, picked up a snake, and placed it in Alice’s palm. Instantly, the snake merged into her hand.
Then Alice felt a new power within her body. This power she could manipulate at will, but it seemed very violent. She might not be able to control it precisely.
With Ophis’s power, everyone present received a tremendous boost in strength.
“If you’re worried about your families, you can temporarily settle them in the Little Garden. Later, after the Nine Provinces Barrier is re-established, you can take them back out.”
This suggestion from Hakuto immediately made the eyes of those girls with families light up.
After all, no one knew what the world would become, but going into the Little Garden was undoubtedly much safer. Those dinosaurs were no match for the magical beasts Hakuto had created.
Then they could clear out the dinosaurs in the Little Garden or move them elsewhere. The Little Garden would become the safest place.
“We’ll think about it.”
Hakuto nodded. Then he stopped talking, directly raised his glass, and said, “So today, let’s not talk about anything else. Just enjoy yourselves. After all, we might not have this kind of leisure time again.”
Hearing Hakuto’s words, the others were silent for a moment, then each raised their glasses.
Drink today’s wine today; worry about tomorrow’s sorrows tomorrow. Everyone present understood what Hakuto meant, so they treasured this moment, possibly the last bit of peaceful and leisurely days they had left.
Under the Sacred Sakura Tree, the group started off perhaps minding some etiquette and such, but in the end, the scene became atrocious. Even Hakuto found it hard to look at.
The corner of his mouth couldn’t help but lift into a smile. Hakuto was particularly happy now. He could keep these embarrassing moments for a lifetime.
These girls probably never expected Hakuto to preserve their embarrassing history at a time like this.
“Aiyaya, look what I’ve discovered you’ve been up to.”
Yae Miko’s voice came from beside Hakuto.
Hakuto turned his head and found that Yae Miko, Tushan Rongrong, and other smart people were secretly watching him, their expressions somewhat teasing.
Hakuto had been caught doing something bad. What to do?
The best solution was to turn them into accomplices.
He had always been well-versed in this principle. If they became accomplices, then they would all be in it together.
So the number of people taking photos went from one to a group.
