Diary of Guarding Monster Girls-Chapter 638 - 362 Didn’t Let Me Down (6K, Please Subscribe!)

["Hehe~"]

The voice that echoed in his heart was gentle, overflowing with reassuring tenderness and ease.

["I thought I hid myself well, but you still found me~"]

That was the voice of a god.

For ordinary followers, hearing the voice of a god would be a great blessing, bringing excitement and tears of joy.

However, compared to those who give their all to a lofty god without getting much in return, Herbert is incredibly fortunate.

Herbert wasn't surprised by the divine voice, he merely licked his lips slightly in response.

Because the god in his heart belonged to him alone.

["My dear ally, you've caught me again~"]

"So, you've been here all along?"

["That's right, I've always been here~"]

This answer did not surprise Herbert, as he already had a feeling that was the case.

Herbert always felt like he was living under Nenasha's shadow.

However, unlike those sinister stares, this shadow was always warm.

["Hehe~"]

A god with no followers, only an ally, chuckled softly, the sound as gentle as a whisper in a mortal's ear.

Just hearing this voice could conjure an image of a glorious and maternal figure in one's mind.

Unfortunately, the seriousness in that voice didn't last long before it returned to its usual playful tone.

["Hey! So, how did you discover I'm here?"] the curious god asked in an inquiring tone.

Miss Xie Shen was confident in her hide-and-seek skills, believing she couldn't possibly be found.

She planned to jump out and save the day when Herbert could no longer hold on, but he dragged her out halfway.

This isn't right, my hero-saving-beauty script!

"How did I find out? Just a feeling, I guess."

Herbert shrugged, casually saying in his heart, "To be honest, I've felt for a long time as if you were hiding nearby, looking at me with malice."

I thought, why does it feel like someone's always eyeing my beauty? Turns out, I was indeed being watched!

Going out into the world, a boy really must learn to protect himself.

Otherwise, who knows when some weirdo will take interest.

["Hey! What do you mean, malice?"]

Nenasha (the observer) snorted softly, complaining: ["I admit I've been watching you for a while, but it's with affection!"]

You unappreciative fellow!

["Hmm!? This is the special attention from a god, do you understand what that means?"]

Do you understand the value of "a god's constant personal watch"?

This is a favor others can't even dream of obtaining!

I'm not asking you for more devotion, yet you're complaining?

Are you even human?

Huh? Do you have a conscience?

Speak! Answer me!!!

Faced with Miss Xie Shen's "grievance," Herbert twitched his mouth, casually saying in his heart:

"Alright, alright, affectionate gaze, affectionate gaze! Thank you for always watching over me, I'm truly touched!"

After saying this, Herbert inwardly rolled his eyes, wanting to shoot her a "Who are you trying to fool?" glare.

Sister, who are you fooling!

Fooling again?

Go ahead and play innocent, no one can beat you at it!

It's just us two, what are you putting on a show for? Shouldn't we know each other well?

As expected, right after his "apology," Nenasha reacted.

["Ha! Ha! You're welcome!"]

Miss Xie Shen's previous "grievance" vanished in an instant, replaced by overwhelming smugness, bursting into uncontrollable laughter.

["Heh heh, hehe, ha! Ha↑Ha↑Ha↑Ha↑"]

Victory!

This time, I've won~

A little strategy, a small performance, and it's a brilliant victory!

This little Paladin is not a match for this Evil God, easily handled.

Handling him, wasn't that easy~

Win!

As the god unilaterally declared her grand victory, the lucky one blessed by the god almost rolled his eyes.

This one doesn't even bother pretending.

"Alright, that's enough, stop that maniacal laughter."

The "ungrateful" mortal grumbled perfunctorily: "Now's not the time for this discussion, my matters aren't finished yet."

Their dialogue seemed long but occurred within a thought, and not much time had actually passed outside.

While conversing with Miss Xie Shen, Herbert's gaze never left the reflection of his past self in the mirror, watching it intently.

["Hmph! I don't care, you deal with your problems yourself!"]

Nenasha expressed—I'm angry, seriously unappeasable!

Never mind if I'm truly angry or if I previously cheered in satisfaction.

I don't care!

I'm just in an angry state right now, needing someone to placate me!

"I believe you've always been here."

Herbert did not pander to Nenasha's expectations to placate her, his expression calm as he spoke in his heart.

"Every time I've been in danger, you've always been here, providing me immense help."
