Capítulo 1177: Chapter 90: Interlude Break_2
·
“Ah Ce, you finally woke up.” Shiyu Lianyi said seriously, “Qin Qianbai has already eaten your portion.”
Gongsun Ce’s eyes were vacant: “I beg you, don’t tell such real horror stories, okay.”
“Sorry, she actually only ate half.”
“She really ate half! How hungry is that kid?! ”
Due to the large number of participants in this battle, everyone directly rented out a hotel banquet hall as the venue for the gathering. Weirdos from all corners of the world gathered together, the excessively contrasting clothing styles and strange hair colors made the scene resemble a sort of second-dinsional exhibition.
Shiyu Lianyi silently pointed to the long table in the center of the venue, a neat stack of white empty plates ford a wall of hunger half the height of a person. Through the gaps between the plates, a small black head could be vaguely seen working hard behind them, clearly still engaged in the great endeavor of devouring food.
Gongsun Ce cautiously approached, only to see his girl battling a pizza all by herself. Qin Qianbai picked up a slice filled with ingredients and handed it to his mouth: “Reserved for Ah Ce.”
“Thank you.” Gongsun Ce used Telekinesis to support the pizza as he devoured it. It was a classic Margherita pizza, the crispy crust and semi-lted cheese proved it had just been freshly baked, making it delicious, the scorching cheese covered a sour tomato sauce below, while basil leaves and thy burst with their unique aroma from the heat. He finished the large slice in two bites, then shalessly squeezed in beside Qin Qianbai: “Give so, give so!”
“Don’t you dare snatch my portion.”
Shiyu Lianyi quietly observed the battle between the two for food for a while, warmly reminding them: “Even though you two can see it, I still have to ntion there’s plenty more on the other table.”
“You don’t get it, stolen food tastes the best.” Gongsun Ce said as he gnawed on a chicken leg, “Why is your appetite so good today, Missy?”
“The last two cuts took a lot of effort.” Qin Qianbai gestured, “The gap is still big. I need a long ti to catch even a glimpse, while Qin Ming can normally see it.”
“Think positively, Qin Ming lived several more years than you after all.”
“That’s true.” Qin Qianbai said proudly, lifting her head, “In this battle, I still had so outstanding achievents.”
“So amazing, so amazing.”
Gongsun Ce patted her head and headed towards the liveliest part of the venue. Kardesia was yelling while grabbing Qiluo, and Shiyu Ling and Mafan were watching the chaos with schadenfreude.
“Ugghhhh, don’t shake , I’m gonna fall apart!” Qiluo cried with tears in her eyes.
“How can you guys not bring along!” Kardesia said angrily, “How can you have a club concert without bringing Lianyi, and not bring the team leader!”
“There was no ti, okay? Next ti we’ll definitely invite you ahhhhhhh…”
“Sotis I wonder what my actual role in this club is.” Shiyu Lianyi said, while not being taken along.
“Club leader’s luggage.” Gongsun Ce said, “Or the club leader’s cat tree.”
“Not even considered human, that’s really an.”
“If you have the ti to mock, go check on your cat, it’s nearly exhausted by her.” Shiyu Ling knocked his brother’s head. Shiyu Lianyi stepped up to soothe the leader, trading Kiro’s right to breathe with an afternoon tea and a promise to arrange music together next ti.
“Your club is practically a dictatorship.” Mafan comnted from the side.
Gongsun Ce adjusted his glasses: “Our club stands where it is all thanks to my sole support as deputy leader.”
“Stop fibbing, you don’t sing well at all.”
Gongsun Ce was just about to grab the fried chicken when Mafan slapped his hand down: “Just woke up, no eating fried foods.”
Gongsun Ce’s eyes spun: “Give 10 extra points and I won’t eat it.”
“…Such a rascal.”
Mafan poked his face before going off to chat with Kardesia. Shiyu Ling glanced sideways at his boyfriend, putting on a disdainful look before loudly clicking his tongue: “Tsk tsk tsk.”
“Why are you getting sour?”
“What do you think?”
Gongsun Ce linked arms with Shiyu Ling, and together they wandered toward the corner of the venue. He picked up the beer can in Ling’s hand and took a sip.
“Phew… thanks for the hard work, Ling.”
“Extrely hard, okay.” Shiyu Ling pouted, “Out of the whole ship, I’m the only proper Creator Realm Mage, battling I handle stress, supporting I cover, and organizing personnel retreat it’s on — I fought from start to finish! Yet, at the end, all the lilight was taken by the little girls, and I beca the back-office personnel.”
Gongsun Ce rubbed his hands with a smile: “Lord Illusion Moon Venerate, more work goes to the capable, how about we let you have center stage for the next concert?”
“No way, I don’t like lilight gigs.” Shiyu Ling rolled his eyes, “This IOU is on your tab; wait till we finish the trip and I’ll stomp on it hard.”
“Why stomp on it? At least use a gentler action!”
He and Shiyu Ling drank two cups, then aimlessly began to wander around the venue. The gang mbers and local priests were enthusiastically chatting, seeming to find much common ground regarding head-bashing techniques. Yun Yinglang brought John to join Kardesia’s chat circle, the gang leader was pulling a sour face to apologize to forr enemies, Shiyu Lianyi was throwing sarcasm at full power from the side. Budman stood nearby, holding a ham, pretending not to see, chatting with Qin Qianbai about the Cold Steel State’s tournants; he seed to have watched the arena broadcast in Cangdu, feeling deeply regretful at missing participation.
Gongsun Ce initially intended to impart so words of gratitude, thanking everyone for putting aside grudges and fighting together, but upon observing decided it wasn’t quite needed. Compared to the impending enemies and larger circumstances they’d face, the various happenings in Cangdu seed to have faded, beco lighter. He stood alone with a glass of red wine at the side of the venue; for a mont, shards of mory swept over his mind, making the young man slightly dazed.
