617 The Meeting Starts (1/2)

”Wyba, you traitor, we should have jumped together, but you disregarded our teamwork and jumped to Yale directly. You will make me cry.”

Although Barha complained, she really didn't care that much. She got bored and walked to Yale and the others.

Nurvey and Nevah also decided to stop touching Ange's ears.

”This girl should be Wyba, right? I heard a lot about her from Nurvey. Well, she has so many plushies about her, that is like if I already knew her from before.”

Nurvey never graduated from her passion for Wyba's plushies, so Nevah had also seen them. After all, the Multiverse Trading Association was producing them, so Nurvey had asked Nevah to go buy some a lot of time while they trained.

”Don't tell those things to others...”

Nurvey was embarrassed when someone else pointed her hobby, especially given that Wyba was there herself. Of course, Yale and Wyba knew about her hobby of collecting plushies of Wyba, so they didn't react at all, but others who didn't know looked at her with strange faces.

”Who cares? The Multiverse Trading Association belongs to Yale, so you are a big sponsor given how much you buy there. You don't need to be ashamed.”

Although Nevah said that, the price of plushies were negligible by people like Yale, so it mainly served as a way to attract people. The real worth of the Multiverse Trading Association was its information network.

”Did you buy Wyba's plushies? Do you know that they also started to sell plushies of me? Julie asked me permission after I met her. She really has good taste.”

Barha spoke like if she did a favor to Julie agreeing to make plushies of her, but the truth was that she was jealous that Wyba had plushies while she didn't, so Julie took that decision to make her happy.

”Sorry...”

Nurvey had been really busy, so it was already a lot that Nevah gave her time to ask the Multiverse Trading Association to send them Wyba's plushies, but it would have been too much asking to see new unrelated products.

Hearing Nurvey's apology, Barha was quite depressed.

”Is my disciple better than me?”

Seeing Barha's state, Yale decided to speak.

”Barha, your plushies aren't available to the public yet. It was delayed until the end of the war for obvious reasons. Moreover, the first one will be a set of you with Wyba. It will be called: The cutest master and disciple pack. Julie is already preparing it to announce it once the war ends. You will be very popular, don't worry.”

That information was real, but Yale didn't care too much about it, so he hadn't spoken about it to others before. However, Barha looked very happy.

”Yale, it has been a long time. Sorry for being late.”

Yale smiled when he heard that voice. In the past, he was annoyed when he heard it so much, but at that moment, hearing the voice of his old friend wasn't annoying at all.

”Hi, Zack. You aren't the last, so don't worry.”

They had met long ago in the Nacesai Academy. Zack was really crazy about archery back then, but his obsession only grew stronger with the pass of time.

His master was known as the Archery Goddess, the first person who obtained the True Archery Divinity, and she was as crazy as Zack for the archery. Yale knew that Zack couldn't wish for someone better than her to teach him.

”I told you that we would be the last, what a shame. They beat us for a few seconds.”

Firene and Aizu appeared just after Zack and the Archery Goddess.

”So, what if we are the last? I managed to become a Great Goddess, while Zack is still a God. Being a bit late for this difference isn't shameful.”

Aizu was late due to her breakthrough, but strictly speaking, because she wasted time celebrating it not because she was trying to advance until the last second like Wyba.

Moreover, she had to thank the magma pool for her quick progress. If she depended just on her talent, she would have become a God at most even with Firene teaching her.

”No need to argue. Our group is already complete, but others are still coming, so it doesn't matter the order we reached this place.”

After Yale spoke, Zack's master tried to catch the attention of all the group.
