Chapter 887: Chapter 4 Ava’s Questions

"The question is, what will they represent?" Catherine asked, puzzled, "Seeking information from the outside world? It doesn’t seem like it; otherwise, with all those followers of Danacus, it would hardly be the turn of these kids from the corners. Then, is it to regret the Yarran World? Doesn’t look like that either; if they wanted to come back, the reaction should not be sentient undead but rather reflected on Death’s Gate. So, what will could be making them slowly gain sentience? Strange."

"Who knows about these things." Pannis shrugged and said, "Maybe the Deity’s will got bored, and so the undead gained sentience. Deities, after all, doing strange and bizarre things isn’t impossible."

"You, you’ve just blasphemed against all Deities," Catherine said, seeing that Lina had already picked up the hammer and couldn’t help but laugh as she punched Pannis twice, "How could Deities be as casual as you describe, thinking they would be as idle as you?"

"Cool it, cool it, violence isn’t right," Pannis seriously stopped Lina’s intent to carry out the Deities’ judgment by proxy, and looking around, said, "Haven’t Vivian and Freya come back yet? They should be back earlier today."

"Not yet, don’t they always come back when it’s almost dark every day? Is there something special today?" Catherine shook her head and said, "Also, where have you hidden Ava? I didn’t see her coming back with you."

"You actually brought her up on your own," Pannis almost jumped on the spot, waving his hands and complaining, "You are so malicious, sending her to mess with me. Oh my God, I worked hard for three days, and finally got Miss Emerald to agree to meet my demands, and you ruined it just like that. Almighty Father Lord Yarra, punish these evil sinners."

"Hang on a second, dear Mr. Pannis," Lina’s veins on her forehead throbbed as she gritted her teeth and asked in a low voice, "Would you mind explaining first who Miss Emerald is? Is she the owner of the tavern where big sister dragged you back from last time?"

"Eh? Miss Emerald, who is that?" Pannis froze, scratching his head in confusion and said, "Did I mention this person? Hahaha, you must have heard wrong; I don’t know any Miss Emerald. I haven’t been to her tavern for drinks—no, wait, I don’t even know if she runs a tavern. Hahaha, oh, I remember now, I have to go see Odin at the Guild today, hahaha, I’ll be off, hey, don’t pounce on me suddenly, you’ll kill someone."

"Sigh, what a headache," Catherine muttered, massaging her forehead. She turned to Ava, who had been sitting behind a tree pretending to be a doll, and asked, "Did you see what he was doing, to harbor such a grudge for being interrupted?"

"The tavern owner agreed to get him a barrel of Deep Sea Sour Vine wine, and as he was about to drink from the barrel, I sat in front of him and just stared. He couldn’t drink anymore. Then, he tried to coax me away, and after talking to me for a long while, when he turned back, he found that the wine had been snatched away by the unrecognized drinking buddies who often joined him," Ava said expressionlessly, "Following your instructions, I didn’t say a word from start to finish, didn’t do anything, just sat beside him staring."

"Well done," Catherine patted Ava’s shoulder and gave a thumbs-up in praise, "That idiot is always hanging around the tavern; we didn’t have the heart to catch him there every time, but now luckily we have you. You must continue to do this."

"Yes, I will," Ava nodded blankly but suddenly asked, "But why? Given his current situation, even if he drank non-stop every day and messed around, it wouldn’t have any bad effects on him, right? Why must you go out of your way to stop him? If he were seeking other women, I could understand your jealousy, but why stop him from drinking?"

"Wha...what jealousy? Why would we be jealous?" Catherine said with flushed cheeks, shaking her hands, "We are not jealous at all. We’re just worried that those nonsensical women might lead him astray."

"Based on logical deduction, there is a 95.7 percent chance that your statement is a cover-up, hence it lacks persuasiveness below 5 percent," Ava said mechanically, "However, these are irrelevant to the issue and can be dismissed. The key point is, can you answer my question and tell me why?"

"Well, the reason might be something you wouldn’t quite understand; it’s very complicated," Catherine sighed, patting Ava’s head as she explained, "Of course, we know very well that it wouldn’t be a big problem for him, not just drinking every day, but even if he drank a barrel of deadly potion. But on one hand, spending every day in a tavern naturally leads to increasing degeneracy, which isn’t good for anyone, even a demigod like him. More importantly, on the other hand, you see, he enjoys it himself, as he knows that this is actually our peculiar, awkward and special way of showing care. He likes it, no, at least it can be said that he doesn’t dislike this unique way of care. It’s also because of this that everyone’s relationship with him is getting closer."

"I cannot understand," Ava tilted her cute head, her confusion almost tangible as it seemed to pour out of her eyes, "Your actions do not match any logical models and cannot be replicated."

"That’s why I say, the human heart is actually very complex. When you can set aside logic, you will roughly understand human emotions," Catherine patiently explained, "You don’t need to replicate behavior. When you can truly want to do something from your heart, with no reason or logic, just a pure desire, you will find that you really are no different from normal people."

"I hope so," Ava nodded dumbly, "I will try my best."

"Hehe, don’t worry, take your time, there’s no rush," Catherine pinched Ava’s delicate cheek, before transforming back into a valiant knight and shouting, "You two, quit it, are you planning to dismantle the house with all that racket? Sit back down, and you, Pannis, we were talking serious business just a moment ago, why are you causing trouble again?"

"Oh, all right, hey, wait a minute, I’m the victim here, how come... alright, alright, I’ll stop talking, I’m sitting down," Pannis ran back and sat down obediently but asked in confusion, "But... I don’t remember us talking about anything serious just now?"

"My head hurts so much," Catherine said, rubbing her head fiercely, "Just now, you mentioned Vivian and Freya will be coming back early today."

"Oh oh oh, I forgot all about that, hahaha," Pannis laughed awkwardly, "Tomorrow, an envoy from the elves will be arriving, and the guilds are all preparing for the reception."(To be continued.
