Celia: After Dying in the Apocalypse, I Live Once Again!

Chapter 137: Having To Convince Her.

If Shui was trying to trick me, she absolutely wouldn’t have stayed so close to us; fleeing as far as she could. Instead, she stuck behind a tree, not really hiding at all; watching us.

Unless she is a master actress, I am fully believing in Shui being a random reincarnater, or transmigrator; who ended up in this body. After all, Guanyu is making it pretty clear that she is familiar with whom this body belongs to; a known enemy to the Cultivator. That person… is gone, I sense no Soul within Shui besides her young one.

Vulely: “I have noticed her… natural seduction abilities, yes. Shui isn’t using them, though, Guanyu. While they’re surely active… the woman isn’t in control of her seductive aura at all.” I explained, now placing and protecting Shui behind my body.

Guanyu: “Shui?… Is that the name Mianmian has deemed good enough to manipulate you? Even now, this woman remains a Green Tea Bitch… How pathetic of her. I will not let you become her puppet, to be used and then tossed away when you’re no longer of value, Vulely!” She exclaimed, lifting and pointing her sword at… Shui, not me.

Shui: “…”

Wisely, the girl kept quiet, not interrupting the verbal battle between Higher Beings. Even her thoughts were… empty? Ah, Shui passed out, and is now sleeping away, resting her body on my back. Does this intimacy count as cheating?…

It really shouldn’t, as I feel nothing for Shui. Back on topic, Guanyu is super fired up right now! This Mianmian and my sister wife must have a deep, unpleasant history with each other… Either way, none of that relates to Shui, even slightly. Reincarnating or Transmigrating into the body of a Villainess… isn’t really that rare, and doesn’t instantly make Shui guilty.

Vulely: “Guanyu, Shui is not related to this ‘Mianmian’ you speak of. She is a transmigrator, one that I think… only recently woke up in that body.” I said with a serious tone.

Guanyu: “Mianmian is a skilled manipulator. How can you be certain that you aren’t being tricked? Vulely, ancient, bad blood must be settled; and I ask you to not get in my way.” She threatened, now actually pointing that sword of hers at me.

Vulely: “I looked at her Soul. There was not a trace of anything but Shui’s Soul in that vessel, and said Soul is young. Shui isn’t a Cultivator, either. Like you’ve said; a Soul cannot be faked. In fact… I am pretty sure that she has access to the System.” I explained with a confident expression.

Guanyu: “…”

Whoosh!

Unexpectedly, Shui was no longer at my back, now held by Guanyu. Shit! This woman brought up me being tricked… because Guanyu has proven to be able to scam me many times in this Soul Realm. Welp, dear… stranger Shui, your life is now in the Cultivator’s hands, not mine.
