"No, you guys damn..."
Seeing the banner hanging in the courtyard of the villa, Fang Mo wiped his face.
Even without the others saying anything, he could roughly guess who was behind this. After all, whenever the words 'petty' were ntioned, everyone could pretty much figure out who it was.
Fang Mo glanced at the tea table next to the banner.
Ancient One was calmly drinking tea, as if the whole matter had nothing to do with her.
But considering that today was the last day here, and everyone had co to celebrate the victory, Fang Mo decided not to argue with her.
He shook his head.
Fang Mo then turned to look at the other people.
One had to admit, there were unexpectedly many people in the villa.
Besides the original hot pot group and Fang Mo's barbecue group, almost all the S-rank heroes were present, along with so A-rank heroes.
Fang Mo took a quick look and found that except for Blast, tal Knight, and Watchdog Man, all the other S-rank heroes were there, including the usually absent Zombie Man, Drive Knight, and even Super Alloy Darkshine, who had been dragged over.
As for the A-rank heroes...
The number one ranked Sweet Mask, Atomic Samurai's three disciples, Stinger from the J-City battle against the Deep Sea King, Lightning Max, and Sneck were also present.
Of course, there was also Genus and his team of operatives.
Since Genus had been very active lately, his ranking had risen quickly, and it seed only a matter of ti before he reached the top of the A-rank or even entered the S-rank.
Even among the B-rank heroes, Fubuki's group had sent a few people.
For example, Fubuki's two subordinates, Eyelashes and Mountain Ape. Honestly, every ti Fang Mo heard these hero nas, he wanted to make fun of them.
Besides these.
There were quite a few people not related to heroes.
For example, Dr. Kuseno, Bang's disciple, and Sonic. Even the rescued hostage child, Waganma, his Priest Narikin, and Snotty Boy were there.
"Are there too many people?"
Seeing the courtyard full of people, Fang Mo was honestly a bit confused.
Though the courtyard was quite large, the number of people was overwhelming. With dozens crowded together, it felt less like a visit and more like a farewell party. If soone placed a coffin in the middle, it wouldn't feel out of place at all.
Due to the number of visitors.
Ah Xue was kept busy.
Fortunately, Ah Xue had learned a lot during her ti at the Qiao family estate. She was no longer the little maid; she could now transform into a perfect head maid when needed.
Under her authoritative presence.
Many were unknowingly conscripted into helping.
First in line was Black Sperm, who had no right to refuse. Actually, Ah Xue seed quite fond of it, likely influenced by Fang Mo over the years, and she had it squatting to peel potatoes.
Additionally, Sonic and the Mun Rider were pulled over.
So were Fubuki and her two subordinates. Fubuki was helping mainly because she didn't want to face her sister, Tatsumaki, who was still in the courtyard.
Though their relationship had improved, Fubuki was still not comfortable around her dominant sister.
The number of guests also changed the way they were hosted.
Tables were set up in the courtyard, and food was placed on them as it was prepared, allowing everyone to talk and eat freely. It had a bit of a high-end banquet feel.
Though calling it a rural feast wouldn't be wrong either.
"Isn't this too many people?"
At the top of the Pure White Space, Fang Mo looked at the crowd below and couldn't help but complain, "If I go down there, they'll swarm ."
"Hmm?"
Xiao Yao looked down as well, stunned by the crowd. She instinctively said, "I can't tell if you're too popular or not popular at all."
"Never mind, it's the last ti anyway."
Fang Mo shook his head, then grabbed Xiao Yao and headed down, "Let's go, I'll take you..."
But before he finished speaking, Fang Mo suddenly felt his hand lighten. When he looked back, Xiao Yao was gone.
Soon after, a ssage appeared on the public screen.
[Xiao Yao: I'm going back to the main world first. Handle the ss you made yourself.]
"..."
Fang Mo rubbed his temples in frustration. He knew Xiao Yao disliked social interactions, possibly finding them botherso, unlike himself who was socially adept.
Shaking his head.
Fang Mo had no choice but to go alone.
With a thought, he appeared in the villa's courtyard.
"Ah, it's the Priest!"
Just as Fang Mo expected, soone noticed him imdiately. With a shout, everyone turned their attention to Fang Mo, "Look, the Priest is back!"
Zombie Man stopped interrogating Genos.
Genos, who was questioning Drive Knight, turned around.
"Oh, you're back."
The first to speak was Saitama, who treated Fang Mo naturally, unlike the other heroes. "Where did you go? We couldn't find you anywhere."
"I went to study SCP-2000."
Fang Mo made up an excuse.
"Good evening, Priest," said the second person, Child Emperor, who greeted Fang Mo politely and asked, "Were you with Dr. Bofoi?"
"You're quite smart."
Fang Mo ruffled his hair, making Child Emperor smile.
After interacting with Child Emperor, Fang Mo looked around and quickly spotted Pig God not far away.
As ntioned earlier, the ti-reversal ritual is theoretically feasible, which piqued Fang Mo's interest. He never wanted to give the Feminization Core to the Pig God in the first place, and the other party probably didn't want to turn into a woman either. So, he thought he might as well take this opportunity to get it back.
"Priest."
Unfortunately, before Fang Mo could take action, he heard a voice next to him again.
Turning his head, Fang Mo discovered that this ti it wasn't a familiar face but Zombie Man, one of the S-class heroes. He walked over seriously, first glancing at Dr. Genus not far away, then looking at Fang Mo: "Genus... why has he beco like this?"
"You know him?"
Fang Mo looked at Zombie Man with so curiosity but soon recalled: "Oh, right, you're also one of the House of Evolution's experintal subjects."
"Did he tell you that?"
Zombie Man frowned instinctively at these words.
"I found it in the experintal records. He lost his mory a long ti ago," Fang Mo explained casually. "In any case, the current Genus is no longer who he was, and the House of Evolution has long been destroyed. So, you should let go of your hatred and focus on being a hero."
"Sorry, but I find that hard to believe."
Zombie Man's expression turned somber: "Genus is a monster who always sticks to his ideals no matter what. As long as he lives, the House of Evolution will not be truly destroyed..."
"But he's a hero now."
Fang Mo spread his hands.
"He's definitely faking it," Zombie Man said seriously. "Genus is very cunning and has terrifying ideals. Priest, I suspect you've been deceived by him..."
"Why don't you take a look at what he's doing?"
Before Zombie Man could finish speaking, Fang Mo suddenly raised his hand and pointed at Dr. Genus not far away.
"Hmm?"
Zombie Man turned to look, and to his surprise, Genus seed to be having a fit. While the other operatives weren't paying attention, he suddenly crouched down, picked up a stone from the ground, and started chewing it with a smile.
Then there was a 'crack' sound, and a front tooth flew out, bouncing far away on the ground.
"Damn it, the doctor has lost his sanity again!"
Soon, the other operatives noticed the scene. The Armored Gorilla hurriedly picked up Dr. Genus and shook him upside down a few tis.
A stone quickly fell out of Genos' mouth.
"What do you think?"
After witnessing this, Fang Mo turned to look at Zombie Man again: "Do you still think he's pretending?"
"…"
Zombie Man looked at the front tooth at his feet, bewildered and at a loss for words.
"Priest, you've finally co back."
At that mont, a female voice called out from not far away. Fang Mo turned to see Tatsumaki walking toward him: "Co with , I have sothing to ask you."
"I really deleted it."
Fang Mo almost instinctively replied.
"You...!"
Tatsumaki's forehead veins bulged instantly: "You're about to leave, but you're still so perverse, aren't you?"
"If I don't leave a strong impression, won't you forget in a few days?"
Fang Mo spread his hands helplessly.
"Anyway, co with first. I have sothing important to discuss with you," Tatsumaki took a deep breath but still beckoned Fang Mo: "You said it yourself back then; it's ti for you to fulfill your promise."
"...What?"
Fang Mo felt a bit confused.
Despite his confusion, he followed Tatsumaki.
Soon, they arrived at a corner of the yard. Tatsumaki waved her hand, causing so leaves and other debris to float up, obscuring everyone's view.
At the sa ti, a telekinetic barrier ford a sphere that enveloped the surroundings, isolating even the sound.
"You know, I thought carefully about what you said to before… and I realized you had so points." Inside the telekinetic barrier, Tatsumaki spoke frankly to Fang Mo, "Although it was quite embarrassing, I still want to thank you."
"Hmm?"
However, Fang Mo was a bit taken aback by Tatsumaki's words.
To be honest, he had forgotten what he had said to Tatsumaki. After all, she was a classic tsundere, and teasing her was so much fun that he had said many flirtatious things… to the point where he himself had almost forgotten most of it.
"You haven't forgotten, have you?"
Seeing Fang Mo's expression, Tatsumaki seed to realize sothing.
"Hey, how could I forget?"
Fang Mo waved his hand with a laugh and then ambiguously said, "What I said is always correct, isn't it? You just realized it now?"
"There's nothing that can be done about it."
Tatsumaki frowned, and perhaps because there was no one else around or maybe because Fang Mo was about to leave, her tone was quite candid: "After all, I'm an older sister, and I've always been used to this way of doing things. It's really hard for to suddenly change my attitude towards Fubuki."
"Oh, I see."
Hearing this, Fang Mo finally understood.
It seed that Tatsumaki was referring to the advice he gave her when they first t, suggesting that she should try to treat Fubuki more equally, instead of always suppressing and denying her.
"Actually, it's fine. Admitting your mistakes and correcting them ans you're still a good kid."
Understanding this, Fang Mo smiled and said, "It's really just a change in mindset. You always habitually place yourself in a parental role, but in reality, you're just her older sister, right?"
"If you can't let go of your tsundere nature, then simply change your mindset."
"You're the most invincible sister in Fubuki's eyes, so of course, you should be more accommodating to your incompetent little sister. Doesn't it make it easier to accept if you think about it this way?"
"…Pfft."
However, hearing Fang Mo's reasoning, Tatsumaki suddenly laughed.
"Hmm?"
Seeing this, Fang Mo raised an eyebrow, "Did I say sothing wrong?"
"No, you didn't." Tatsumaki lightly shook her head with a smile, "I just found your reasoning… quite interesting, like you're coaxing a child. Don't you know my age?"
"A bronze appearance is still bronze."
Fang Mo nonchalantly waved his hand and said, "What's wrong with coaxing a child? I've been wanting a child recently, so isn't it perfect to practice with you? Co on, little Tatsumaki, call Daddy."
"You really can't speak properly, can you?"
Unexpectedly, Tatsumaki didn't lose her temper; she just sighed with her hand on her forehead: "I don't need you to teach such things, okay? I've been thinking about these for a long ti."
"Oh, that's good then."
Hearing this, Fang Mo nodded approvingly.
"Actually, I haven't finished dealing with the ss at the association." Tatsumaki said with her arms crossed: "This ti I ca here partly to thank you. After all, it's because of you that I took this step, and also to properly say goodbye… since I probably won't see you again in the future, right?"
Saying this, Tatsumaki seed a bit lancholic.
"Hey, there's no need to be so sentintal."
Seeing this, Fang Mo smiled mischievously, "Although I'm leaving temporarily, I'll definitely co back in the future… don't think you can get rid of so easily. I lied to you, I didn't delete those photos!"
"…"
Hearing this, Tatsumaki's face darkened again.
