Aventurine was silent.
Looking back at everything he had done, Pei Guang was the thorniest existence he had ever t.
He didn't fear death; as for social death after death, it didn't matter.
But the problem was, he was betting Acheron couldn't truly kill him.
So the question was, if he truly died, he could ignore Pei Guang's threat. But if he didn't die, he might beco the next Phantylia.
Being looked down upon was one thing, but if this really happened, the whole universe would laugh.
The IPC upper managent getting poked in the butt would be a joke for ten Amber Eras.
Now he could only gamble, gamble that Pei Guang and the others couldn't poke his butt, or gamble that he would truly die?
But regardless, Aventurine decided to ignore Pei Guang's words and continue with his plan.
"Talk is useless. You will beco witnesses to the next murder case, the best candidates to prove that 'no casualties exist in the Dreamscape' is empty talk. Right here, Clock Studios The Park, a truly grand death.
You, you, you, and you will all die. And all of this is because of you, Miss Stellaron. You will embody death here.
Do not underestimate yourself. You possess the power to overturn the table. Let be clearer: I will detonate the Stellaron inside you, creating a little accident in Penacony."
Aventurine was trying his hardest to steer the topic in a normal direction, but obviously, Stelle, who had been led astray by Pei Guang, was clearly unable to be normal.
Stelle looked at Pei Guang excitedly: "Ah Guang, look, you guessed right again. He said he wants to detonate to bring death, but I feel like my one Stellaron isn't enough. Take yours out too! Rejoice! Cheer for the Trailblazer Pei Guang who possesses the power of invincible prophecies!"
Pei Guang: "Since you're praising so awkwardly... Alright! I'll listen to you, let detonate a Stellaron for fun~"
Pei Guang was already holding the Stellaron in his hand, and now that Stelle wanted to 'explode it for fun', he naturally had to satisfy her.
Pei Guang reached out and squeezed the Stellaron. At this mont, the Stellaron in Pei Guang's hand emitted a dazzling light.
The instant he made this move, everyone present shouted in unison.
"Stop!!!"
Everyone knew Pei Guang, and even understood him in various aspects: he was the type to make jokes seriously.
If he really detonated the Stellaron...
Surviving would definitely not be a problem, but being wanted would be inevitable.
March 7th: "Stelle! What are you saying? If Ah Guang really detonates the Stellaron, then... wouldn't our favorability farming in Penacony be in vain?"
Firefly nodded vigorously: "Exactly, exactly! Do you know how much effort Ah Guang put in to sneak into the Family?"
Effort, referring to catching all the Family Heads in one net and sending them all to 'another world'...
Stelle: "Eheh~ I was just joking."
March 7th: "That was way too scary!"
People who can't do it saying they will is a joke, but people who can do it saying it is terrifying.
Conversely, when Hiko heard Aventurine also shout "Stop", her original worry vanished instantly.
Although Pei Guang accepted Aventurine's quest, she could tell that Pei Guang's behavior just now was bluffing Aventurine.
Aventurine's "Stop" had already expressed too many anings.
Hearing everyone's forbidding words, the Stellaron in Pei Guang's hand disappeared and was re-equipped onto the weapon. A smile appeared on his face as he looked happily at Aventurine.
"Eh? Aventurine, why did you ask to stop? Oh my, you weren't just using detonating the Stellaron as a pretext to scare us, were you? I'm so scared~"
Pei Guang hugged his own body with both arms and wriggled coquettishly.
While wriggling, his body beca bouncy and jelly-like: just looking at it made one feel annoyed.
Stelle also hugged her body and wriggled in imitation: "I'm so scared too~"
March 7th: " too, so scared~"
Firefly: "So scared~"
With Pei Guang taking the lead, the other three also started wriggling.
However, it was a pity that March 7th and Firefly, who were following along, didn't let go enough and didn't wriggle as coquettishly as Pei Guang and Stelle.
To wriggle in a way that made people want to beat you up just by looking wasn't sothing that could be achieved by pure technique: it was an instinct carved into the DNA.
Looking at the four little ones in front of him, Welt held his forehead. Pei Guang had really maxed out the taunt.
He felt that if Pei Guang had existed when facing the Honkai back then, maybe the way to resolve the Finality wouldn't have been a great war, but Pei Guang angering it to death.
Leaving aside what Aventurine thought, even if he put himself in Aventurine's perspective seeing these four things, he would want to kill them too.
It was really irritating, too irritating.
But on second thought, even if the other party was... a comrade? He was also an enemy now.
In a 12 ga, it might not be suitable to trash talk, but in a 9 ga, this kind of ridicule was just right.
Looking at the four people initiating the taunt, Aventurine really wanted to smash Pei Guang flying with a chip, but he held back.
"Alright? Are you betting with ? Fine, I'll bet with you. I bet I can win a complete victory, using an unprecedented explosion to prove that the Harmony's vow is a complete joke."
When Aventurine said this sentence, Pei Guang's eyes, which were originally wriggling, instantly beca sharp.
Not only did Pei Guang's eyes beco sharp, but aside from Firefly and Acheron, all mbers of the Astral Express looked at Pei Guang with sharp eyes and grave expressions.
Pei Guang stopped his movents at this mont and looked expressionlessly in the direction the voice ca from.
"You just said 'bet', right? Are you sure you can do it? Are you sure you want to bet with ?"
In this instant, Pei Guang was so serious that Firefly felt he was a bit unfamiliar.
Firefly: "What form of Ah Guang is this?"
March 7th on the side said seriously: "This is the gambling Ah Guang. You might not know, but Ah Guang's gambling luck is very amazing. Countless strong enemies have been defeated by his gambling luck."
March 7th didn't lie.
Although Pei Guang lost every bet, and the reality was that Pei Guang definitely lost every ti he bet, losing was losing, but the enemy did indeed kick the bucket.
Therefore, saying the enemy was defeated by Pei Guang's gambling luck was not a problem, as it was entirely accurate.
Although Pei Guang lost every bet, in reality, gacha gas didn't have much of an overall impact on him. As long as he didn't pull with a gambler's mindset or try to gamble on probabilities, he could enjoy normal ga rates.
But the mont he had thoughts like this for a 50/50 pity: "I bet I won't lose the 50/50 this ti."
Even forced jinxing wouldn't work: it had to be Pei Guang analyzing based on comprehensive data and truly, seriously betting on it—then he would lose every single bet without fail.
However, because he had been losing bets for so long, sotis Pei Guang would deliberately set up a persona for himself, letting those around him win for a laugh.
Or he would use reverse psychology jinxes: after all, one can never set too many flags for the opponent.
But after coming to this world, Pei Guang felt that his "lose every bet" buff had beco stronger, possibly even becoming a hidden passive skill of his.
Precisely because of this, hearing Aventurine say the word "bet," his entire deanor beca serious.
