Surviving The Fourth Calamity

Capítulo 1697: Chapter 274: Just Wear It, So You Don’t Explode With Rage

“Lu Huayu” was bewildered for a few seconds before reacting: “Is Aesces that troublesome?

Ambori…”

“Do you think I’d care about Ambori?” “Snow Cloud Peak” glanced at him, “Patience is a thing I rarely have, and even less where it can be used.”

“Lu Huayu” pursed his lips: “Rose or Ambori, who would you pick?”

“What the hell have I done to deserve choosing between these two?” “Snow Cloud Peak” couldn’t hold back.

“Seems like your glasses aren’t that useful, better to not wear them. They’re really ugly.” “Lu Huayu” smiled slightly.

“Snow Cloud Peak” was completely unfazed, his tone still icy: “You think that was me losing composure?

That’s just everyday life.

What I need is, a final leash to hold me back, so I don’t publicly curse the sky… at least not in front of the local natives dissing their Main God.

Doesn’t have to be strong, just a reminder will do.”

“Lu Huayu” couldn’t help a twitch at his mouth… as the powerful person who had brought Ambori to this state of an aging child, he really couldn’t imagine how much “Snow Cloud Peak” must have suffered to be so devoid of passion.

To know, Snow Old Dog… actually, that nickname was originally given by their enemies.

Of course, back then the insults were worse, generally linked to some special breed of dog in the snow.

Considering how vile his personality was, how venomous his words were, and his innate ability to instantly regain fighting spirit, he wasn’t much different from that thing.

As for the intelligence aspect… who would ever admit their enemy was smart?

Anything possessed must be stomped into the dirt to feel normal.

That’s also the fate “Snow Cloud Peak” brought upon himself, who let him love wearing white robes and always shouting about his clan and alliance being as united and valiant as a wolf pack.

Tsk, Snow Wolf, as if he’d fit.

Looking at “Snow Cloud Peak” showing signs of breaking down, “Lu Huayu,” mercifully swallowed the words “dog leash” back into his stomach… of course, he didn’t want to antagonize this cunning Old Dog at this moment.

Hey~

Even if Snow Old Dog doesn’t plan to use his methods for outsiders against him, “Lu Huayu” still thought he might not be able to withstand that friendly torture.

Even someone like the “Perfect Bald” could become so tame… after many years of rivalry, “Lu Huayu” understood perfectly well that one has to suffer immensely to truly grasp the notion that “those who understand the times are wise.”

And then he calmly shifted the topic: “So, why did you call me over?”

“I thought you wanted to come out for some relaxation?” Buried in his tablet, “Snow Cloud Peak” laughed and looked up, “I heard your boss and Ambori had a tiff?

Tsk~ not feeling great, huh?

Balancing between those two’s pace, and not letting either one feel you’re siding with the other.

Tsk tsk~”

“How so?” “Lu Huayu” laughed, “Was it those patrolling from your clan who said that?

They really overthought.

Someone smart like me never mixes the tactics for bosses and family.”

He leaned back on the sofa: “Of course, as someone like you who constantly treats business as personal, you wouldn’t understand.

Ha~

Another few kicks and maybe you’ll understand a bit?”

“Your take on Ambori surprises me a bit.” “Snow Cloud Peak” put down his tablet and spoke calmly.

“Isn’t that exactly what you said?” “Lu Huayu” sneered, “Chief Steward Lu plans to spend his life with AI, you guys need to keep some distance from Ambori.

You guess what that sentence would morph into after circulating outside?

Our boss even came to me asking if he changes games later, would he be able to take me along.”

“Would you leave?” “Snow Cloud Peak” retorted, unbothered, “Your boss and Ambori, I think you’d still choose Ambori.”

“That’s my business.” “Lu Huayu” said noncommittally.

“So, have they finished arguing?” “Snow Cloud Peak” couldn’t care less about these people’s personal affairs… as long as it doesn’t affect his plan, even if Chief Steward Lu falls in love with a sheep, a horse, he wouldn’t care.

Just like the Night Slumber Clan’s Clan Leader who hosts a wedding ceremony every time he acquires a horse, he’s never bothered by that!

People are free… damn it, Proud Sky Alliance is already famous for weirdos, so a few more doesn’t matter at all.

“It’s no big deal.” “Lu Huayu” took a deep breath, “It’s still the old issue, the clash between Temple and castle’s decorative styles.

The color preferences between Ambori and our boss are too huge, style-wise… also not quite matching.

But you always find some balance, like if special materials from this world are used, our boss can concede a bit in terms of color.

Ambori isn’t that demanding actually.

Mainly, it shouldn’t be too luxurious and just less use of light blue and white.”

“It seems Ambori still despises the Sun God and the other Kind Alignment Sea Gods?” ‘Snow Cloud Peak’ spoke without a hint of emotion.

“Hill wouldn’t find it strange, right?” ‘Lu Huayu’ responded evasively.

“Hill never makes a fuss.”

Although both displayed insincere smiles, the two managed to exchange their bottom lines.

‘Snow Cloud Peak’ confirmed that Ambori wouldn’t act on her hostility toward Agleya.

Even though she couldn’t defeat Hill at all.

In the past, even if she knew she’d lose miserably, she’d still insist on trying.

Now, she could endure when facing stronger entities.

As for making Ambori completely give up that hostility… everyone knows it’s impossible.

Not to mention she’s still in the Evil Faction now, even if one day the sky falls and Ambori becomes Neutral Faction, she would still regard Agleya as an enemy.

After all, even the Kind Alignment acts mercilessly due to divinity conflicts!

And ‘Lu Huayu’ also got an assurance… Hill wouldn’t strike against Ambori because of her persistent hostility.

These days, what really made him lose hair wasn’t their boss’s dispute with Ambori.

Ambori, knowing ‘Lu Huayu’ was employed by that Apocalyptic Boss, actually let many things slide because of Chief Steward Lu’s face.

And their boss is just a playboy, not stubborn, how could he possibly argue with an NPC indefinitely!

He simply couldn’t accept Ambori’s overly jumping color combinations.

‘Lu Huayu’ actually couldn’t accept it either… so their boss standing up to argue with Ambori might not be without his influence.

“So, what exactly am I here for?” ‘Lu Huayu’ repeated again… this time he wanted the overt reason he could take back to discuss with everyone.

“Gaia… she’s never been a woman to act on her own.” ‘Snow Cloud Peak’ sneered coldly, “She’s used to hiding behind the scenes.

When dealing with Uranus, she cried to her sons, and Cronos stood up for her… don’t say it’s because his power was the greatest, his ambition the largest.

Uranus was the strongest one, he wasn’t without the risk of failure.

And when dealing with Zeus, she knew those with brains wouldn’t help her, even her own children… so she chose to sense the Abyss’s aura and gave birth to those gigantic monstrosities.

Ugh~ In Aesces, although her power wasn’t weak, her way of doing things remained the same, ruthless yet sly.

Once exposed to the sunlight, most of her threats would diminish.

Yet she still persists.”

“Didn’t you always say Cronos seemed to have hope for resurrection?” ‘Lu Huayu’ furrowed his brows.

“I did think so, and prepared accordingly.

But she chose to resist stubbornly in the Danboro Capital, even willing to shift others’ focus onto her to protect that desert pair… Ugh, since when did Gaia become so selfless?

Even if it’s just an avatar.

Back in the day, she wouldn’t even sacrifice her Divine Artifact for Cronos!

She’d rather give birth to monsters than damage her Divine Artifact to breach the Hell prison door.”

“Wait… are you suggesting it’s one of Gaia’s sons?” ‘Lu Huayu’ raised a surprised eyebrow, “Isn’t it said they were all devoured by Asmodeus?”

“Do you remember that monster Gaia and the God of Abyss Tartarus spawned?” ‘Snow Cloud Peak’ gave him a knowing look.

“Typhon?” ‘Lu Huayu’ couldn’t help baring his teeth, “How is that possible? That’s a 100-headed monster.”

“Yes, and there’s even a snake-headed one among them.” ‘Snow Cloud Peak’ pressed on the tablet, “Hermes did actually warn us, that monster isn’t a weak Medusa.

Hah, what a loyalist to Zeus, even though he’s disappointed, he doesn’t want Typhon to re-emerge, truly the Greek Gods’ most feared existence.”

“How could Aesces contain him?” ‘Lu Huayu’ had just asked, couldn’t help but glance at the sea, “That… always heaps up gigantic monster Sea God?”

“Wait… then why do you keep emphasizing it’s Medusa?” ‘Lu Huayu’ asked in displeasure, “You know how long it took me to explain to Ambori so she’d understand what kind of existence it was!”

“Who said there wasn’t one, it’s always been there!” ‘Snow Cloud Peak’ puffed his cheeks and made a cute expression, “I just didn’t mention the other part.

But the snake-headed body is indeed Medusa’s~

It’s just, I didn’t say that later Triton also mentioned it kind of stank like Typhon~

As the Sea Queen’s son, he indeed knows Gaia’s side quite well, and his feelings are complex… hehe, after all, Poseidon did give birth to a Giant son with Gaia!”

“Don’t use sensational gossip to cover your own fault.” ‘Lu Huayu’ calmed down, “No wonder you were so angry you wore glasses, Aesces probably forgot to tell you about this, right?

By the time he remembered to tell you… ah, he might not even have told you, but went to Hill to gossip.

Then Hill realized something was off, and only then were you notified.

Ah~ seeing your expression, that’s exactly it.

Alright~ go ahead and wear the glasses~ though they don’t look good, at least they’ll bring some peace of mind.”
