Collei opened her eyes and stared blankly at the ceiling.
Her mind was a blank slate, as if she were wandering in endless nothingness.
"I think I had a dream... I dreamt I got my revenge..."
"Shouldn't I be happy after getting my revenge?"
"Why do I feel completely devoid of strength, not even having the power to move a finger? It's as if... I'm fixed to this bed..."
All this time, for the sake of her family, friends, and her conviction for revenge, Collei had walked forward steadfastly despite encountering countless difficulties and obstacles.
However, now that her great vengeance was achieved, Collei, having lost her goal, fell into confusion.
"Collei! Collei!"
"Hurry up and get out of bed!"
"Where are we going to play today!"
Just as Collei was feeling lost, Star's energetic voice sounded beside her.
Collei thought to herself, "It's... Star's voice."
"So that wasn't a dream. Did I really succeed in taking revenge and kill the Missionary?"
Bang!
Star pushed the door open and looked at Collei lying in bed with an exasperated expression.
"I say, Collei, lying in bed like a child isn't good for you!"
Looking at Collei, who was radiating an aura of 'confusion' on the bed, Star's lips curved into a smile identical to Anya's.
"Heh heh."
Collei instantly felt a bad premonition.
She hurriedly tried to get up.
But it was too late.
Star grabbed the blanket covering Collei and yanked it off with force!
Swish!
"Aaaah!!!"
"Star, you dummy!!!"
Collei's ashamed and angry cry echoed throughout the entire farm.
Arkz, who was watering the strawberry field, calmly sighed, "Ah, how peaceful~"
Bang!
A large red lump on Star's head was emitting steam. Tears welled up in her eyes as she sat in a duck-like posture, begging Collei for forgiveness.
"I'm sorry, I was wrong."
Collei put on her clothes, her face still flushed with lingering redness.
Looking at the pitiful Star, Collei recalled the embarrassing scene just now, causing her face to turn even redder and her small fists to clench tighter.
Star muttered quietly,
"Who knew Collei, you don't wear clothes when you sleep."
"Besides, aren't you covered by bandages?"
"Moreover, your figure hasn't even fully developed yet. At worst, I can take off my clothes for you to see too..."
Crunch, crunch.
"What—did you just say!!!"
Hearing the illusory cries and pleas of her own bones, Star quickly knelt down and begged for mercy.
"Lady Collei."
"I was wrong!"
"Forgive your humble maid!"
After Star's commotion, Collei's heart held no trace of confusion anymore.
Looking at Star, who had just been aggrieved but was now grinning cheekily, Collei felt that with such a clown beside her, how could she ever be sad.
Seemingly sensing Collei's improved mood, the demon god remnant inside her carefully spoke up.
"Um... Lady Collei."
"Yes, what is it?"
When the demon god remnant spoke, Collei suddenly remembered that this fellow was actually inside her body.
It was truly because it had been too well-behaved during this period that Collei had almost forgotten about it.
For Collei, she slept soundly last night, but for the demon god remnant, it was a sleepless night.
Since the Missionary was eliminated and Collei's great revenge was achieved, this tool that could provide Collei with power but harm her body seemed to be useless now.
As for the mastermind behind the scenes, the Doctor, both Collei and the demon god remnant knew that taking revenge on the Doctor with their current strength was tantamount to a pipe dream.
The Doctor's power and status were incomparable to the Missionary's.
So, after the Missionary died, the demon god remnant suddenly realized that it very likely had no use anymore.
The demon god remnant spent the entire night praying that Collei wouldn't discard it now that its usefulness was over, and that she would put in a good word for it in front of the big shot here, at least sparing its small life.
Having finally developed intelligence, it didn't want to die so easily.
"You no longer need my power, so how will I be dealt with afterward?"
Hearing the demon god remnant ask this, Collei was also a bit troubled.
The simplest solution was to directly drink a few more bottles of water of purity to purify the demon god remnant.
But Collei was inherently a kind child and naturally wouldn't do something as heartless as discarding someone once they were no longer useful.
Moreover, during yesterday's decisive battle with the Missionary, if it hadn't been for the demon god remnant's full cooperation, she wouldn't have achieved her satisfying revenge.
The demon god remnant waited nervously for Collei's contemplation, not daring to even breathe, afraid of disturbing her thoughts.
It fearfully awaited the final judgment upon itself.
After thinking for a moment, Collei spoke,
"You did help me a lot with yesterday's revenge."
"I will try my best to keep you."
Hearing this, the demon god remnant immediately breathed a sigh of relief. With Collei's plea, its chances of survival increased significantly.
As long as it continued to act harmless, it would definitely survive!
At noon, Amber came to visit.
"Amber!!!"
"Collei!!!"
Watching the two run quickly towards each other before hugging tightly, appearing as sisters with deep affection, Eula behind Amber sighed.
Eula thought to herself, "Didn't they just see each other yesterday? Why does it look like they haven't seen each other in ten years?"
Just as Eula was lost in thought, Star suddenly hugged her.
"Hehe."
"My embrace is warm, isn't it?"
Star flashed a smug smile.
Eula struggled with a blush on her face, "Star, you rascal, why are you hugging me all of a sudden?"
Although she had already accepted Star and Collei as friends, such suddenly intimate contact was usually reserved only for Amber. Eula felt a bit shy.
"Eh!"
"I saw you sighing while watching them hug, so I thought you wanted a hug too."
"Let go!"
"Fine..."
Star reluctantly let go of the curvaceous Eula in her arms. Being able to openly cuddle with Eula, especially in front of Amber, felt amazing!!!
Looking at the little grey-haired girl pretending to be dejected, Eula felt a strange sense of guilt.
"The way I treated Star, won't she think I hate her?"
Eula gritted her teeth, stomped her foot, and pulled Star into her own embrace with a blush.
Boom!!!
Feeling Eula's warmth and softness, Star felt her life was complete.
"Amber, why are you here? Won't this delay your work at the Knights of Favonius?"
Although Collei was pleasantly surprised by Amber's arrival, she knew that unlike her, who was idle, Amber was an Outrider for the Knights of Favonius. Coming to see her during work hours could result in punishment.
Amber smiled mysteriously,
"I have a mission from the Knights of Favonius for coming to the farm this time."
Collei tilted her head, "A mission?"
Amber took out the notice from the Knights of Favonius from her embrace and handed it to Collei.
Collei accepted the notice doubtfully, and her eyes immediately widened.
Amber: "How is it? Are you very shocked?"
Unexpectedly, Collei weakly replied,
"Which Amber, can you help me read it?"
"I... I don't recognize many characters."
Amber: "!!!"
Amber: "Ah!"
