Chapter 58: Snowys Worry (1/2)

”Snowy...”

”Hmm?” Snowy replied at the voice who called her name absentmindedly.

”Are you okay?” Feng Xue was really worried about Snowy's state of mind. Since they returned to Blackwood Forest, Snowy had fallen quiet as if she was deep in thought.

”Un. Don't worry, Xue,” Snowy smiled at her as she shook her head dismissively.

”If something bothers you, you can always share it with me, Snowy,” Feng Xue stared at Snowy with determined eyes while locking her fingers with Snowy's, ”I want to help you like how you always there for me. Please, I want to lessen your pain, even if it's just a little bit.”

”Un. Thank you, Xue...” Warmth filled Snowy's heart and somehow also crept up to her face as her cheeks turned rosy when she remembered what they had done while bathing together before.

'Hehe, she is so cute...' She actually had already noticed that Snowy blushed and averted her eyes from her, but she decided to keep it for later so she could tease her properly. She asked Snowy with a straight face keeping her thought in check, ”So, what's going on in your mind? Is it about our meeting with the old man earlier?”

”Un.”

Snowy pondered for a bit before recounting her talks with the old man in the frozen time. She also told Feng Xue about her previous self as a system, her current mission, the Alchemist Goddess, and the significant meaning of the cauldron appearance.

Meanwhile, Feng Xue was listening to Snowy's explanation carefully with a serious expression. Her eyes widen for a second before she quickly returned to her previous serious look.

”So the gist is: you are a former goddess and turned into a million years being who previously assisting many gods and goddess and now ended up in a new body intending to be a goddess once more, huh? If other peoples are telling me this, I definitely think they are insane. However, when it comes from your mouth, I only expect it to be more absurd than this, and not less.”

Although her story seemed unbelievable and absurd, Feng Xue, who already knew about the possibility of Snowy being a goddess, neither doubted her words nor was overly shocked by this revelation.

Whether she had been living for more than a million years or she had accompanied many invincible existences, it only made her think, 'it was the typical Snowy', and she shrugged it off.

However, when she heard the part explaining that Snowy required to understand human emotion to complete her soul, and it was also the reason why Snowy had agreed to come with her when she first met, Feng Xue couldn't help but worry, ”Are you okay? You're not in danger, are you?”

After her father's incident, Feng Xue felt a little bit paranoid whenever the matter of the soul being mentioned. She had calmed down in the past few weeks, but her fear resurfaced when she heard the truth about Snowy's condition. After all, Snowy's soul was in a worse state than her father's soul.
