"Mashu, let's go!" Gudako's gaze was determined as she reached out her hand to Mashu.
Ignoring the sowhat inspiring scene that might have unfolded if not for Gudako's words, Mashu could only give her a disappointed look upon hearing Gudako's declaration of surrender.
Seeing that Mashu was hesitating to extend her hand, Gudako forcefully pulled Mashu's hand towards her.
Then, with a resolute tone, Gudako said, "Since no one's objecting, let's skedaddle!"
To anyone who couldn't understand Japanese, this statent might sound like Gudako was saying sothing motivational. At least, her tone suggested so.
After saying this, Gudako held Mashu's hand and dashed off into the distance, with the previously innocently insulted C Chulainn following closely behind.
For Gudako, every extra second spent here increased the risk of being caught by Schrdinger, which was absolutely unacceptable to her!
As they ran, Gudako even rubbed her own butt, mimicking the gestures of an oily uncle.
The battle with Schrdinger at the riverbank had indeed left her butt quite sore, and that was one of the reasons she feared Schrdinger.
Honestly, who would ever expect to get hit on the butt during a battle?!
"Mmm." Mashu heard this and couldn't help but feel a bit unwilling as she joined Gudako in their escape.
"But, is this really okay?" Mashu asked, concerned. "Aren't those Saint Quartz like your salary for working at Chaldea? It seems a bit wasteful to just abandon them like this."
Facing Mashu's question, Gudako turned back and gave Mashu a gentle smile. "Don't worry, Mashu."
Unfortunately, due to the extrely clear red handprint on Gudako's face, when she turned back to speak, it looked like a hand from the Naruto series had grown a mouth.
Seeing Gudako smiling with the handprint on her face, Mashu couldn't help but laugh. "Don't worry, she says... hahaha?!"
Gudako didn't realize that Mashu was laughing because of the handprint on her face. She thought it was because of her generous attitude.
As her gentle smile slowly transford into a cunning one, Gudako's expression began to resemble that of a cunning fox with a bald head but wearing a wig. "You know, the money from whaling isn't actually coming from my personal stash?"
"Huh?" Hearing this, a sudden realization seed to dawn on Mashu, and her smile gradually faded.
"You should rember, right? The forr director, Olga Marie? She was doing promotional work for rchandise."
"I know about that. It sounded really tough. I think she had to work from 9 in the morning to 9 at night, six days a week, right?"
Mashu counted on her fingers and suddenly felt that Olga Marie's transition from her previous job to her current one was quite challenging.
"Exactly, you're right."
"By the way, senpai, why are you suddenly bringing this up? I don't see any connection between this and the current situation... or is there?"
As Mashu spoke, she suddenly paused, and her expression visibly worsened. "Senpai, you wouldn't..."
"Yes, you're right!"
At this mont, Gudako extended her right hand and clenched her fist, her mouth curving into a crazed grin that stretched far beyond the city limits.
"I'm the one who recomnded Olga Marie's job placent agency. But the salary reported to Olga Marie is actually only one-third of her original pay. In other words, two-thirds of the money she earned through her hard work is in my hands!"
Hearing this, Mashu looked at her senior Gudako in disbelief. "Senpai?!"
"All the money I spent on whaling was actually embezzled from the hard-earned money she made!" Gudako's grin grew even more sinister. "In other words, those two lost Saint Quartz an zero loss for !!!"
"You... you... you..." Mashu covered her mouth with both hands, her actions resembling the gesture of soone about to vomit. She took a few slow steps backward.
"You're inhuman!"
"Don't call despicable, okay, Mashu?"
Saying this, Gudako suddenly took a step forward, extending both arms and leaning her upper body forward a bit. "Who else can achieve such a freeloading thod?!!!"
"Senpai, doesn't your conscience hurt doing this?" Mashu, envisioning Olga Marie's pitiable situation, shuddered in horror and began to question Gudako's actions.
"Conscience? Can you eat it?"
"...Truly, you're sothing else, senpai." At this, Mashu fell silent, raising her right hand and sticking her thumb up, albeit reluctantly.
At this point, she was at a loss facing Gudako. Trying to reason with soone so shaless was futile.
However, it was truly unfortunate for Olga Marie, the forr director. She had barely escaped from Singularity F, only to beco a tool for Gudako to make money.
Such a fate could only be described as tragic.
In this mont, Mashu could only carry her compassionate prayers, hoping that Olga Marie was safe.
"Could you two lovely ladies move aside a bit? Thank you." Just as Mashu was once again feeling disappointed by Gudako, a male voice suddenly ca from the side.
The three of them turned their gazes towards the source of the sound, although their reasons for doing so were quite different.
Mashu turned around purely out of caution, imdiately preparing herself to draw her sword and strike if there was any potential threat.
As for C Chulainn, his motives weren't entirely pure. He turned around solely to see who on earth was so clueless that they would utter the words "two lovely ladies." After all, to be frank, other than Mashu being a lovely lady, wasn't Gudako more of a demon?
Only after he turned did he realize... oh, it was just soone carrying a large box. The box happened to block his line of sight, so he could only deduce that there were two won chatting in front of him based on their voices. No wonder they said sothing like that.
C Chulainn's words were ignored completely because he had been nonchalantly munching on waterlon while observing the scene.
But Gudako was different. Her reason for hearing that voice was simply because it was a familiar one! Upon hearing the voice of that familiar voice actor, Gudako swiftly turned her head at the speed of light and shouted with a determined look.
"Is that the voice of Hikaru Midorikawa...? Could it be you, Red Hare?!"
