Dead silence.
Everyones faces were suffused with smiles. Although it was unclear if there was anything hidden beneath those smiles, on the surface, at least, everyone looked extrely happy and excited.
Feisha thought, if not for the giant crystal above holding it together, Im afraid the roof would have long been lifted.
From his pocket, Mani dug out a purple crystal the size of his fist, holding it in his palm, mumbling incantations in a low voice. Countless rays of purple light shot out from the crystal, forming a brilliant beam of purple light right above Manis head.
A huge shadow suddenly appeared within the light.
Although he was in full formal dress, it was clear that the poor suit couldnt contain all of him. From his shoulders, b.u.t.t and thigh, it could be seen that the clothes were under imnse strain.
But not a single person in the banquet hall laughed. Everyone was holding their breaths as they watched this huge figures every movent.
Suddenly, a far-off and faint cheer could be heard. It sounded like m.u.f.fled thunder that was coming from a distance.
A sound dampened the cheering noise and words could be faintly heard, Let the nine worlds Absurd! Were free! We dont need to suffer from being exploited by anyone anymore we will create our own wealth!
Feisha stamred, Dont tell
its like what I thought of, again?
Isefel, It seems like it.
Feisha said, But when we were in the eting room, the representative of t.i.tan Clan wasnt like that. It was a woman.
Isefel replied, That was the t.i.tan Queen Tina. She has always supported the Novem Union. But despite that, the economy of the t.i.tan Clan still did not improve. Although every year, the faerie world and Genesis provide a sum of gold to a.s.sist the t.i.tans, it is still like trying to put out a fire with a cup of water.
Feisha sighed and said, The gap between the rich and the poor will be found anywhere.
Keeping to old thods and being unwilling to change will not solve problems.
The two of them had been whispering to each other in their corner. In another corner, Mani had already kept the purple crystal, breathing quickly as he said, Look! Even if we leave the alliance of the nine worlds, it doesnt an that wed be alone and without help. The t.i.tan Clan is our first ally! We will stand with them to fight. I believe in the near future, there will be more and more allies joining us. Leaving the Novem Union is not an end, but a brand new beginning. From now on, wealth will be controlled and distributed by ourselves and our lives and our fates will be ours again!
Oh!
[T/n: its a chanting sound ]
Wave after wave of shouts shook the banquet hall until Feisha went numb.
Feisha said, This kind of view seems to be the view of the Liberation Resistance.
[T/n: Liberation Resistance is first ntioned in ch.6]
Isefel replied, That is exactly what they are doing.
I heard Feisha licked his lips and continued, That the Liberation Resistance hates Noahs Ark the most?
That is right. Because a lot of trading and business transactions have to pa.s.s through Noahs Ark.
Feisha muttered, This ti we are really f.u.c.ked. (1)
What?
I said, this ti were really lambs entering a lions den.
Isefel said, They need to attack our prestige.
I really wish soone would teach them that you can win people over by kindness. He had just finished speaking when fate handed this holy mission into Feishas hands.
Mani suddenly paused in his excited narration and turned his attention to Feisha. Our n.o.ble guests have yet to offer a congratulatory word?
Many uniform gazes imdiately focused onto Feisha.
Feisha coughed and quietly asked Isefel, Can you handle it?
Isefel looked in front, his eyes slowly darkening. Dont worry.
Since Isefel told him not to worry, Feisha didnt have a reason to worry, so he arrogantly walked forward a step, speaking in a loud voice, First, for those who have been invited to partic.i.p.ate in such a grand and codic ball, I deeply express my happiness. He ignored the disturbances below the stage, continuing without consulting anyone, Really. This year, there have been many codies, but there havent been a lot of codic b.a.l.l.s. Especially when the partic.i.p.ants gathered are such a large crowd of people who arent young anymore, but have such low IQ and EQ. I think that itself is a feat!
Mr Shi Mani said sinisterly.
I havent finished speaking. Please dont interrupt
anyhow, its very rude. Feisha smilingly educated him, and then continued, Next. I discovered sothing that is really quite a cause for admiration. That is, to hold this codic ball, the courageous Lord has actually spent more than two thousand years walking over every inch of Genesis before finding so many cody talents whose IQ and EQ added together would be lesser than a hundred and convinced them to gather together. What a feat!
When he finished speaking, Manis face was black as pitch.
Feisha wiped saliva from his mouth as though he had not said his fill, and said, Ive finished my congratulations.
Mani, I hope your vitality is as tenacious as your mouth.
Feisha earnestly replied, I hope your IQ will rise like your age
Isefel suddenly sucked him into his embrace.
Tut!
[T/n: sound of dagger hitting the earth]
A dagger slamd into the place where he had once stood.
..
Feishas delayed fear made him break out in cold sweat.
Isefel said, There are six invisible people around.
Feisha said, Splash them with sothing!
Isefel replied, Theyre adults. Even if theres sothing on their bodies, it would disappear.
Then what should we do? Feisha looked at Mani, who was so angry he was smiling sinisterly, and he suddenly felt regretful about what he had blurted out in the spur of the mont.
Like this. Isefels hand waved.
Sothing seed to tumble out of the air. Two guests were knocked off balance.
Mani looked at the excited Feisha and smiled coldly, Are there really only six?
Isefels eyes flashed, suddenly drawing Feisha in, and they imdiately soared into the sky.
The place where they had been standing was filled with more than ten daggers in an instant.
Feisha looked down at Mani from his high vantage point in the air and said, A friendly suggestion, dont use a dagger when chopping at buns. The result isnt good.
Mani smiled and replied, Not only at buns, but poking hornets nests too!
The door was pushed open and a crowd of archers rushed out, standing in a row, aiming at Feisha. All the guests moved back. But most of them watched the events excitedly and in good spirits as though they were watching a show, with not a single shred of alarm.
Feisha
and said, Dont tell
theyre actually using bows and arrows?
Mani smiled and said, Is Mr. Shi afraid?
No, Im only surprised. I thought, even if youre economical, youd use AK47. (2)
Manis smile disappeared. Fire!
Sharp arrows instantaneously flew like lightning (3), backed by the wind and headed straight towards Feisha!
Even though Feisha was full of confidence in Isefel, under these circ.u.mstances, subconsciously, his terror of death still made his entire body tremble. Seeing his shivers, Isefel conjured a barrier to block the arrows while drawing up his arms as though he wanted to transfer energy to Feisha.
Upon hitting the shield, the arrows fell one after another.
Mani eyed the brooch on Feishas chest. The Black Star of h.e.l.l?
Feishas heart imdiately jumped in alarm.
I heard this stone is worth more than Genesiss monthly GDP.
.. Was this saying that Genesiss GDP was too low or the Black Stars price was too high? Feisha turned his head to look at Isefel.
Mani lowered his head to look at his fingernail, and then slowly turned around and sat down on the only chair on the stage, saying, After the appetizers are served, its ti to serve the main dish.
As he spoke, the ballrooms air suddenly strangely began to warp. The door and the window disappeared in the midst of the warping. When the air returned to normal, Feisha discovered that the ballroom, which had originally been crowded, had beco twice its size and now seed s.p.a.cious and empty. Yet, compared to the larger ballroom, what attracted attention more was the four people who had appeared before Mani. Or, the four creatures.
Feisha said, That guy with the black wings, do you know him?
Isefel replied: Houllier. (4)
Is your relationship good?
..
Then, let
put it another way. Can you defeat him?
Isefel replied, Lets try.
Feisha looked at the two t.i.tans and the faerie standing in a row with Houllier and lightly exhaled.
Mani stood up and said in a congratulatory tone, Your Highness Houllier, I hope your a.s.sistance this ti will not be too much trouble.
Houllier slowly undid the top three b.u.t.tons of his shirt. The open collar of his shirt happened to reveal two huge pectoral muscles. Compared to Isefels n.o.ble and handso beauty, he seed like a bold and unrestrained fla, coa.r.s.e and yet full of demonic charm.
If it was fighting an angel in a perfect condition, Im afraid I cant even withstand one round. But since it is a mirage A corner of his mouth turned up, revealing a small and exquisite dimple. I think, winning wont be so difficult, after all.
Isefel said apathetically, Another faerie. This is a little difficult.
Houlliers gaze intensified into a stare.
Feisha curiously asked, Ive heard the welfare in h.e.l.l is not bad. Why did you still join the Novem Union?
Because he is h.e.l.ls notorious wanted criminal, Isefel replied.
What kind of cri would make him a wanted criminal of h.e.l.l? Feisha was a little . Werent h.e.l.ls inhabitants Heavens wanted criminals?
Depravation. The one who answered was Houllier. His finger slid slowly down his own neck. When it reached his pectoral muscles, his finger suddenly lifted his shirt. Dark colored nipples appeared together along with a cross-shaped scar made by a knife. According to them, I shouldnt have went into rut everywhere. (5)
Even though this wasnt a good ti to gossip, Feisha still couldnt help himself and asked, How did you go into heat everywhere?
Houllier laughed indifferently, Nothing much. I only wrote Michael a love letter.
So, this was a murder case instigated by a love letter?
Isefel said, Accompanying that love letter was a photo of his own nude body and a photo of him masturbating that hed taken himself.
.. This big brother was too forceful. Feishas gaze moved to the other three. Dont tell
the three of you
The t.i.tans reflexively moved away from Houllier, both waving their hands to say, We are not.
The faerie did not speak, but a disgusted expression could be seen on his face. Towards this fallen angel whod been labelled a depraved criminal and who had fallen and then fell so more, he, too, did not have much goodwill.
Houllier smiled gently at the way they avoided him like he was a poisonous snake, said, Perhaps you should try
before you judge. I guarantee my skills would bring you to seventh heaven so fast, you will want to die~ (6) As he spoke, his eyes stared unwaveringly at the faerie.
Feisha saw that a vein was going to burst in the faeries forehead and in his heart he suddenly cheered, hoping they would fight against each other, but, in the end, the faerie only coldly sneered and swallowed this injustice.
Mani finally brought the conversation back onto the right track. I think, its ti for the main dish.

T/n:
(1) Feisha actually said
Zhbji, which is a character from Journey to the West. This na is usually used as an insult to say that a situation (or soone) is really s.h.i.t
(2) AK47 is a type of a.s.sault rifle
(3) Actually Feisha says that the arrows flew like
Tu jing zh m. Google says its the Chinese na of a 2017 movie, Running Wild (dir. Ranarivelo), but Im not very sure what this reference is supposed to an here, so I just used a taphor that would make sense (flew like lightning), lol
(4) His na is
Hu l r in Chinese
(5) Houllier says he shouldnt have Fqng, which is basically a phrase used to describe animals going into heat.
(6) This whole speech by Houllier has quite a bit of innuendo. In the last sentence, Houllier says his skills are so good he will make them
Y xin y s . Yu xian yu si is an idiom that ans soone is in such a state of euphoria theyll want to die. Its usually used in a s.e.xual context, thus implying o.r.g.a.s.m. Also, Houllier ends the sentence with the , which makes him sound quite lighthearted and flippant, or even flirty, so I tried to capture that feeling by using the ~ symbol
