Chapter 1728 - Bewitched by the Chef (1/2)
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The atmosphere became a little awkward when Bu Fang made that remark. He looked handsome when he said that, but to the spectators, he was just talking big.
Could a chef fight against an army? That was the army of Void City! In other universes, this army would be strong enough to wipe out everything! Was he going to brandish his ladle in front of such a formidable army?
The nobles hovering in midair thought it was ridiculous, so they laughed. Was this the time to be heroic? At this moment, they saw in Bu Fang a higher level of blatant exaggeration.
Even a marquis would not dare to say that they could fight against an army, but Bu Fang had just made such a shameless boast.
At the other end of the projection array, Countess Xia Qiu could not help but laugh when she heard Bu Fang speak so shamelessly.
“There’s something… interesting about this chef.”
The other marquises and counts only thought that Bu Fang was crazy. No one believed him. Of course, they did not think Nethery would believe him either. The reason was simple: The Cursed Goddess was not stupid.
Soul looked at Bu Fang as if he were a fool. ‘Where did this stupid chef come from? Is he trying to make me laugh so hard until I die so Nethery can succeed to the throne?’ she thought to herself.
The noblewoman, on the other hand, was laughing so hard that her whole body was shaking.
Bu Fang felt that there was nothing wrong with what he said. Was he no better than a mere army? He peeled off the shell of a blood lobster with one hand and stuffed the tender flesh into his mouth.
Nethery’s eyes flickered as she chewed the lobster meat. “Well, I’ll fight her, then,” she said. Her voice, calm and cold, filled the air.
The next moment, all the nobles hovering in midair fell silent.
“What? What did Her Excellency Nethery say?! She chose to go to war? She really trusts this chef and chooses to fight? She’s going to fight the most powerful and strongest Cursed Goddess? Is she out of her mind?”
Everyone was dumbfounded and could not believe what they had just heard.
Even Soul had not expected this. She thought Nethery would not make such a stupid decision, but she did.
‘Has she been bewitched by the chef? Or is she being held captive by the lobster meat? The Queen of Curses is right. There is indeed some truth to the fact that chefs are the people to be wary of the most in this world…’
“Are you sure? I’ll give you one more chance to choose…” Soul looked at Nethery seriously.
“I choose war!” Nethery said in a powerful voice. With her long hair and long dress waving in the wind, she looked very beautiful at this moment.
“Well, well… Since you are looking for death, then I will fight you to the end.”
Soul’s voice was cold. The next moment, the blue cursed snake appeared in her hand. She crushed it, and an invisible curse power rushed into the void and spread.
“Since you chose to go to war with me, prepare yourself for death! This chef can’t save you! I hope you won’t regret it when the time comes!”
It was a decision Nethery made on her own. Now that she had overreached herself, what awaited her would be despair.
“Aunt Lian, let’s go,” said Soul. After that, she turned around. Her chariot rumbled, causing the void to tremble. Before she left, she turned her head slightly and looked at Bu Fang.
“If you want to rely on this chef, you’d better wait until he gets into District A… How can he be your army if he can’t even enter District A? Ridiculous…”
Soul shook her head. Then, her chariot crushed the void and sped away.
Duchess Tianlian sighed. “Poor Cursed Goddess…” Her figure slowly disappeared, leaving only her voice with a hint of sadness echoing in the air.
Soul left brusquely. She did not kill Bu Fang, who had killed her right hand. Now that Nethery had made the decision, it was no big deal for her to spare Bu Fang’s life. There was no way this chef could set foot in District A alive.
The throne of Void City was hers!
The tension had finally dissipated. The nobles all let out a breath of relief. They were relieved to see Soul go. The pressure she brought them was just too much.
It proved that she was the strongest Cursed Goddess ever. After all, if she did not have the strength and toughness, she could not have survived in that messy Soul Demon Universe.
On the contrary, Nethery… They thought it was not too much to describe her as stupid.
Bu Fang hovered in midair. The plate of spicy blood lobsters had been finished by him, Nethery, and Foxy.
At this moment, the noblewoman descended and stopped in front of them. Looking at Nethery, her long eyelashes fluttered slightly. “Are you sure you won’t regret your decision? Choosing to go to war with Soul now is really unwise. Even the other Cursed Goddess wouldn’t dare to start a war with her…”
She sighed and glanced at Bu Fang. Her face, however, showed no emotion. “If you made the decision because of this chef, tell me, and I can help you out.”
