Cupid

In the technique of "Soil Reincarnation Art", the stable output of flames is only the first step to success, and the change of temperature and the adjustment of the flame position are also crucial parts.

At this time, the "little animals" in the workshop are needed to bring the new pots.

However, due to the strong magic power on the pot, your "little animals" with insufficient combat power huddled together as early as the moment it entered the door.They make the appearance of fried fur, vigilantly barking around you.

Among them, only the little guy with "twelve eyes" is still calm, and he can choose to stand up when he sees Hu with a bad face.

Su Nuo’s act of naming Shikigami before gave you some inspiration. Now you are using top-notch talents as a pilot, and the twelve-eyed one also officially has a name——

【big eyes】

As the chief executive of your clay sculpture business, Big Eye exudes the aura that his predecessors should have.

It paced around the new employee, Ahu, eccentrically, and uttered some language that only the magic spirit could understand as a guide——

"grumble--"

The temperature of the kettle flame dropped a little.

"grumble?"

The flame moved.

"grumble!"

The range of the flame has expanded a bit.

In this supervisory work, the eyes and arms with a surprising number of big eyes have fully played their due role.

Its watery eyes stare at every movement of the pot from top to bottom, from left to right, and will not let go of every moment it makes a mistake.

Its soft and unrestrained tentacles are flexible and free, whipping Ahu's stiff arm unceremoniously to adjust its posture.

You saw the rigor of big eyes today.In the past days, you never knew that your work could be so precise.

...Although you don't quite understand the way of communication between spell spirits, it has too many opinions, right?

By the time you can notice something isn't right, the problem is obviously getting pretty serious.

The taciturn Ke, couldn't bear it, and stood up abruptly from the small bench you brought him.

He kicked up and kicked Big Eye's ass mercilessly.

The scene is wild.

"Go out and fight, no, don't let me smash things!"

You exclaimed in confusion.

Before the manual skills can be further improved, you are forced to learn to "hold water".

……

Fortunately, Su Nuo taught you how to use "spells" before.As long as the real name of the shikigami is called out with mana, their behavior can be restricted to the greatest extent.

The scene was finally brought under effective control.

【Shikigami cannot hurt the master】

Taking advantage of this rule, you have a jug in your left hand and a big eye in your right hand, encircling them on both sides of your body, selflessly extinguishing the raging flames of war between the two "little animals".

Although it is not fighting, but what should we do next?

Hu doesn't seem to like hugging very much.

You looked at the little animal in your arms in embarrassment.

It is different from the big eyes that are honest when you hug them, and secretly wrap their tentacles around your arms.Ke once again showed an aggrieved expression, he wriggled in your arms, and sparks began to flash in his head restlessly.

"I'm sorry, pot... for making you uncomfortable."

Hu quickly glanced at you with his big eyes, and let out a threatening growl towards the door.

You raised your head following the line of sight of the pot, only then did you notice a little monster whose legs were weakened by fright at the door of the workshop——

A tender green frog.

Because it's so weak, you don't even notice when he appears.

"Please, may I ask, can the little one come in?"

"Grandma Tang asked me to come over and deliver some snacks."

Wearing oil house overalls, he hugged an exquisite food box tightly, looked at you with lowered eyebrows, and begged pitifully.

Auraya's sweets!

You will be deeply impressed by the exquisitely shaped pastries and the sweet and delicious fruits.

"Thank you so much!"

Food effectively relieves your worries and puts a happy smile on your face.

The little frog stared blankly at your smile, and froze in place for a moment.It took him a while to slow down, lowered his head and responded:

"No, I dare not. It is enough for you to taste the food in this restaurant."

……

The oil house is a place to entertain the gods, and the food has its own spiritual power, even the spirits of the curse can taste the taste.

In order to appease the restless "little animals", you took the initiative to distribute the snacks in the food box to them, leaving only one piece for yourself.

It was the first time he got this kind of "food", Ahu seemed a little hesitant.

He carefully sniffed the snack in his hand, and after confirming that there was nothing wrong with it, he stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it slowly.

A taste that he had never tasted before seized Ahu's mind in an instant.

He was completely immersed in this new experience, with one big bright eye open, he even forgot to swallow for a moment.

The big eyes watching the pot with cold eyes on one side once again played to his advantage.

Not only did he wrap his own share tightly in his hand, but he also sneakily used the remaining tentacles to grab Ahu's share when he observed Ahu's distraction.

Ah Hu slammed down the big-eyed tentacles angrily.

Because of the big eyes staring at him, his swallowing speed increased a lot, and they quickly launched a new round of struggle——

Food scramble.

As long as you don't smash anything, you can say anything.

With this thought in mind, you didn't prevent the two of you from constantly competing at that moment.

But is it so delicious?

Their actions whet your appetite.With such doubts, you pick up your own piece of snack.

When your fingertips touch the layer of oiled paper that wraps the dessert, the exquisite patterns on the paper suddenly come to life, and they turn into ethereal "smoke" that quickly penetrate into your skin.

It brings up a very uncanny feeling—

It seems that your mind suddenly becomes a page for writing, and at this moment, a line of ink is slowly emerging.

It's the password Granny Tang left for you.

And none of the people present noticed the abnormality that happened to you.

"Everyone has worked hard today, let's go here first..."

You took the two curse spirits back into the wooden box where the spirits could inhabit, and returned to the oil house with the little frog.

At midnight, it's time for you and Su Nuo to be alone again.

Holding the wooden plate with wine jug sent by Grandma Tang, you softly ask Su Nuo:

"Can I have a drink with you today?"

"It's okay."

……

Alcohol is a good thing, it dissolves people's mask of reason, so that everyone can speak the fiery words hidden in their hearts more according to their feelings.

Since you are drinking the wine sent by Granny Tang, its effect is even greater than you imagined.

It doesn't get you very drunk, it just makes you stupid for no reason.

You must know that unlike you who is a curse, you in the past were still a "pure and lovely" girl, who could make unrealistic wishes, speculate about your future all day long, and ask some childish questions to the gods.

Overwhelmed with alcohol, you raised your doubts in your heart to Su Nuo, and said something like a "coquettish"——

"Will you become a god?"

"...Will you forget me and leave me?"

In the face of your outrageous words, Su Nuo finds it more interesting than unpleasant.

He still supported your body that would become limp every time you drank alcohol, and even poked his fingers into your long hair, combing your hair slowly.

Su Nuo is really good at creating this "affectionate" illusion with his movements, but it's a pity that his language is never gentle.

"It's all a curse, but you think of a status like a human being?"

"It's because I have indulged you too much recently. Do you want to be my woman?"

"Why is this?"

He was always like this, neither rejecting nor accepting.

Su Nuo would only play with a careless expression, as if he wanted to hold the other party in the softest part of his heart and play with it, and playfully ask rhetorical questions.

What a bully.

As if your "true heart" is like a beautiful useless little flower, he watched it bloom with great interest.

He thought it was good, and he liked it a little, so he casually picked it off the stem and kept it at hand as a decoration, and then watched it wither and wither.

This can't be helped, after all, who can say "I love you" to a flower?

You should be used to it by now.

It is said that witches must "love" their gods wholeheartedly, so you have never been the only one to reply.

"Because I love 'you'..."

You followed the rules and answered Su Nuo's question dryly.

For wanting to be loved.

It's not about pleading with someone in particular.

It's just that as long as he can survive, he will push forward and want to be loved.

You are cursed with such desires.

It's a pity that your gods have never loved you, they will only appreciate your one-man show from above, but no one can see clearly the desire in your heart and respond to your wish——

no one.

no one...

Please hug me, please take me away from this boundless loneliness and darkness.

You really shouldn't be drinking in front of Su Nuo today.

It reminds you of the sad past that you can't bear to look back on, and it cuts a crack in your closed heart, making the sadness surge into your heart like a tsunami, and you can't help crying.

The tears that belonged to a little girl 50 years ago flowed from the eyes of a woman.

You know it, you know it too well.

This is definitely not the feeling you can have now as a curse.

It is only because you have not realized the wish of the past until now, so the tears that have been accumulated for ten years have no outlet.

……

Ahhh, you totally screwed up.

There may be a man who hugs a woman who is pretending to be weak and weeps because of affection, but who would hug a girl who is sad and crying.

Su Nuo was also stunned, his fingers stopped on the side of your face stiffly.

It stands to reason that he should laugh at you and hate you.

【Because I love you. 】

"I know."

But he just replied with a hoarse voice, and then he lowered his eyes and fell into silence.

You can't figure out what he's thinking.

Just let the past you give up and cry for a while.

……

This midnight conversation was started by you and ended by you.

Anticlimactic, unreasonable.

But it doesn't matter.

After all, the conversation with Su Nuo is not the main purpose of your actions, the key is to drink a glass of wine completely.

Questions are just incidental.

……

"Chewing wine" is the link between the witch and the gods.

So in Granny Tang's secret code, the way to meet Master Fuzao and Amber is very simple——

As long as you drink the wine brewed during your lifetime and pray "piously".
