Fearing that Paimon might fall for another temptation, Lumine hurriedly urged her,
“Paimon, hurry up and open it!”
“That’s right.
You shouldn’t be too greedy.”
Jean nodded as well.
Hadn’t Paimon just returned all the way to the starting point because she was too greedy?
Seeing how the treasure chest could be played like this, Keqing was a little tempted.
She had already been dragged into this game.
If she had known things would turn out like this, she should have tried identifying something earlier.
What if she had happened to identify that stone pedestal?
Wouldn’t this treasure chest have become hers?
“Mm-hmm!”
Paimon wasn’t planning to upgrade it anymore either.
Who knew what else might appear if she kept going?
She simply opened the treasure chest.
As the chest opened, a small card flew out.
The picture printed on it was actually Paimon herself.
“What is this?”
Paimon looked at the card, surprised to see her own picture printed on it.
Fang Yue inspected it.
This card was actually worth 80,000 points?
My poor points!
But since Paimon had already drawn it, Fang Yue could only take the card and examine it.
The moment he saw what it was, his expression became strange.
No wonder there was a picture of Paimon on the card.
Wasn’t this Paimon’s exclusive skill?
“Congratulations, little Paimon.
What you got is a Word Spirit Skill.
It’s extremely powerful!”
“A Word Spirit Skill?”
Clearly, Paimon had no idea what a Word Spirit was.
She tilted her head, waiting for Fang Yue to explain.
“Have you heard of the phrase ‘words become reality’?
A Word Spirit Skill allows whatever you say to become reality!”
Fang Yue’s words nearly scared everyone to death.
A treasure chest worth 100,000 points could actually produce something like this?
Words becoming reality?
Wouldn’t that make her invincible?
“Really?”
The moment Paimon heard this, she became incredibly excited.
She immediately snatched the card and used it.
The card transformed into golden light and surged into Paimon’s body.
Excellent!
Paimon felt that she was already invincible.
She looked at Kamisato Ayato, who had been stirring up trouble from the sidelines the entire time.
Her eyes turned, and she pointed at him.
Kamisato Ayato was startled and immediately dodged.
Paimon proudly put her hands on her hips.
Let’s see if you dare bully me again!
She was planning to teach this guy a lesson.
She could just turn him back afterward.
But then something embarrassing happened.
She pointed at him for quite a while.
Nothing happened.
“Fang Yue, you lied to me!
This skill doesn’t work!”
Fang Yue was speechless.
Couldn’t Paimon have let him finish explaining?
She had used it before he could even finish!
Fang Yue pulled Paimon over and whispered a few words into her ear.
Paimon nodded repeatedly as she listened.
“Oh, so that’s how you’re supposed to use it!
I get it now!”
After figuring out how to use the skill, Paimon understood that it wasn’t nearly as powerful as she had initially imagined.
But she wasn’t discouraged.
After all, when it came to fighting and doing the hard work, Lumine could handle it.
“Paimon~~~~~!”
Kamisato Ayato had also figured it out.
So the skill wasn’t as ridiculously powerful as he had thought.
This little thing had actually tried to trick him!
He narrowed his eyes and slowly approached Paimon.
Paimon was startled and hurriedly backed away.
“Don’t come any closer!
My skill is really powerful!
I’m going to use it!”
Seeing Paimon’s panicked expression, Kamisato Ayato smiled.
If it really were as powerful as you claim, would you be this scared?
Just as he was about to reach her, Paimon extended a finger and pointed at Kamisato Ayato.
“The area ahead will have to be explored another time!”
“Oh?”
Kamisato Ayato found it amusing.
He approached Paimon with a sinister smile.
“What if I want to explore it right now?”
The moment he finished speaking, Kamisato Ayato suddenly discovered that his body seemed to be out of his control.
The way he had come over, he was forced to return the same way.
“Huh?”
Kamisato Ayato didn’t understand what was happening.
He walked forward several more steps.
Paimon’s voice rang out again.
“Thump, thump, thump!”
He was forced several steps backward once again.
“Holy crap!
This is powerful!”
Venti was stunned.
What kind of skill is this?
It really was a Word Spirit!
“Hehe, now you know how powerful I am!”
Paimon was delighted.
With this skill, she was completely safe.
No one could get close to her.
And whenever she wanted to go somewhere, everyone would have to ask her permission first!
Seeing Kamisato Ayato’s dumbfounded expression, Paimon curled the corner of her mouth upward.
She pointed at Kamisato Ayato and began repeating herself.
“The area ahead will have to be explored another time!”
“The area ahead will have to be explored another time!”
“The area ahead will have to be explored another time!”
Kamisato Ayato was forced backward again and again.
He was almost pushed all the way to the edge of the space.
“Big shot, please let me go!”
There was nothing he could do.
This Word Spirit Skill was simply too ridiculous.
He could only admit defeat.
“Now you know how powerful I am, right?”
Paimon had never felt this good before.
From now on, whenever she didn’t like someone, she could simply run to their doorstep and shout this phrase.
She could make it so they had a home but couldn’t return to it!
Looking down arrogantly at Kamisato Ayato, Paimon said,
“When we get to Inazuma, you’d better prepare plenty of delicious food for me.
Otherwise, I’ll make sure you can never return to Inazuma for the rest of your life!”
“Gasp!”
Kamisato Ayato sucked in a cold breath.
How had he never realized that Paimon was this shameless?
Was this really something a person could do?
After threatening Kamisato Ayato, Paimon turned her attention toward Venti.
Her little eyes were filled with indescribable disdain.
Venti rolled his eyes.
“Little Paimon, I use a bow and arrow!”
“Uh…
you’re right.
You win!”
Paimon immediately backed down.
Better not mess with this guy covered in green.
What if he really shot me?
