Chapter 224: "Pink Spirit of amusement park"

"Something painful?"

To find the second key, Kiana couldn't help to think badly.

However, these words already contain negative meanings.

Along the way to the next place, after leaving the cabin, Kiana continued to ask curiously what the real form of the three keys they were currently looking for was.

K-423 doesn't beat around the bush either, and she tells Kiana that all the things they've been trying to collect all this time are parts of Thea's Core that have been scattered throughout her stigmata space.

By collecting all these cores, Thea's incomplete body parts will become more complete, and she will be able to wake up.

Now, their job is simply to find the missing fragments, and bring them back to their original owners.

"Sister valkyrie, can you help me to fly the kite?"

"Eh?"

Pulled out of the realm of thought, and focused back on the real world. After seeing what K-423 was holding, Kiana nodded her head stiffly.

"Thank You!"

Helps hold the kite at a distance, and releases it when the wind blows. Kiana saw K-423 running against the wind, and the kite began to fly higher and higher.

"Fly! This thing can actually fly! Hahahaha!"

Seeing K-423 laugh so purely and so innocently. A smile also appeared on Kiana's face.

After walking for a long time, and suddenly moving to a new map, a deserted amusement parks. K-423 seemed to have forgotten her duties, and she was instead interested in the rides or toys displayed along the side of the road.

This amusement park is also very strange. Different from the place she had known, the sky here was pink, and all the buildings were painted in very feminine colors.

The atmosphere is lazy, and the aroma of blooming flowers, makes a lasting impression on the heart.

It felt like they had entered a amusement parks in a fairy tale.

"Shall we look for the second key first before we play?"

"No, I want to fly a kite!"

"Then what about the task she has given you? Didn't you say the sooner the better?"

"Who cares about that! She can sleep a little longer! I won't go home until I'm done playing!"

If the real Thea heard this, maybe she would immediately slap this little girl's butt until it was red so she would go home immediately. Unfortunately, children can also enter a period of rebellion.

K-423 seemed to have no intention whatsoever of looking for the second key. Without her sharp instincts, Kiana could only rely on herself to find where it was.

"Okay, I'll look for it myself. I think I'll start in the shop area."

After coming to this place and exploring around, Kiana discovered that this amusement park was very large.

Earlier they were playing in the middle of the square, and here in the eastern part, there is a street that sells various kinds of goods and accessories typical of this amusement park.

Of course, there was no one here except the two of them.

K-423 also bought her kite here for zero dollars.

Continue looking, and glance at the items on display seriously, looking for the second key. One by one she scanned the items, and Kiana began to take a deep breath.

Without K-423's detector-like instincts, looking for the second key among a pile of items would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Even if she found it, she might not know that it was the second key, and might miss it before her eyes.

"It seems I have to go to persuade her. Sister Thea has always liked sweet things, does she also have the same taste?"

Find an item that can be used as a persuasion material, namely a packet of star-shaped candy. Kiana came to the shop stand, and she grabbed it.

"Stealing is a bad habit, young lady."

"Eh, ah, I'm sorry!"

Pulled her hand back quickly, and apologized for her act of bad behavior. Kiana, who felt guilty, suddenly froze.

Here there are only K-423 and herself in this amusement park.

Then, who was talking to her?

Kiana raised her head suspiciously.

"B-Boss black Homu!?"

"What's the matter, if you want something then you have to pay for it. Of course, if you can pay for it."

Seeing a black Homu with a patch on his right eye like a pirate, guarding a shop stand. Kiana was left speechless.

She was silent because she knew that this Homu figure had guarded Kaslana's stigmata space for thousands of years before being kicked out by her big sister Thea.

Is it a bit too mainstream to allow this ancient creature to sell its wares on the side of the road?

Gosh, life is never easy.

"If you don't want to buy something, then get out of the way."

"W-Wait a minute, there's something I want to ask! Are you selling something painful? I mean Thea's Fragments."

"...Yes, there is."

Hearing this, Kiana's eyes sparkled with a bright light.

"Really!? Can you sell it to me?"

Black Homu didn't flinch at the hopeful eyes that Kiana gave him, and he lowered his face.

"Do you really want to buy it?"

"Yes, is there something wrong?"

Merchant Black Homu spoke once again.

"If you buy it, then I can give the key to you directly. However, you seem to want something more."

"You want to know why this second key is called [something painful], right? The reason why that girl tried to delay you from looking for this."

"Then let's make a deal."

Knowing that Kiana would not refuse his offer. Black Homu reached for something in the drawer, and he handed a piece of paper to Kiana.

"Take this."

"...Stamp seal paper?"

"Yes, to unlock the secret you have to have a fairly close bond with the girl. Play with her, and when the stamps you collect are full, the secret will appear before your eyes by itself."

took the paper that black Homu handed over, and turned it over several times. Kiana scratched her cheek in confusion.

"I kind of understand what you mean, but... Aren't all the amusement park rides off now?"

All the rides in the park are not working because no one will run them. If not, why would K-423 choose to play with her kite rather than ride a more exciting roller coaster?

"I know, but she can help you."

"Who?"

Kiana became confused.

"Hi~ beautiful human~ I heard someone needs my help~?"

Turning her head to the side, she saw an Elf doll flying towards her with cute white wings. Kiana saw the Elf doll smiling sweetly at her.

"It seems I came at the right time. I am the spirit of this amusement park, the tour guide, the most beautiful doll~"

"You can call me Elly~"

"Nice to meet you, cute girl~"

"Need my help~?"
