(MC POV)
"Ehehe~ Papa, funny people~" Cai Hong giggled as we watched another pair of gods wrestle with each other on the ground.
I kind of already figured out that this event had something to do with trying to find me and everyone within the festival is involved in it.
I'm not even sure if my disciples had planned this ahead of time or they came up with this on the spot because I decided to teleport away from them… But something tells me they actually anticipated something like this…
I've already witnessed quite a number of gods running around the place trying to find me.
I'm assuming they are also adhering to some kind of rule since they aren't flipping over the stalls, using their domains or even flying around the place.
I'd think that if the gods were serious, there would be explosions and things being thrown around left and right.
I guess my disciples must have threatened them with a permanent ban from coming here if they were to make trouble or something.
I ushered Cai Hong away from the scene, only to run into a group of gods who seemed to be glaring at each other.
"If you still think that Father is inferior, you are being entirely delusional!"
"Hmph! For you all to get roped into this stupid little game not even seeing how Mother is the superior one, you really are just a bunch of idiots!"
"Oh yeah? Well you're all just simps for Mother!"
"Aren't you all simps for Father then?!"
"Father created us! And He's the most perfect being in the Universe!"
"Oh please, that title belongs to Mother! All of you are just too stubborn to accept it! Father literally created her to be the most perfect being in existence!"
"That's after Father Himself you dumb dumb! Do you want me to smack you?!"
"You wanna go?! Let's go then!"
"Let's take this outside!!"
Cai Hong giggled again, "Ehehehe~ Papa, funny people~"
I patted her head, "Yes, funny people indeed."
I wonder if this is what usually happens when the two 'fandoms' meet each other outside… You wouldn't think that these beings quarrelling like children were actually omnipotent gods…
Deciding to just ignore all that, I ushered Cai Hong down another path, trying to find somewhere that is safe from all that.
Turning round another corner, I came face to face with Lian Li.
Not just a clone of her but the actual Lian Li herself.
"Oh, pardon me," She apologised, taking a step to the side from me to avoid a collision.
She must not have realised it was me.
I shook my head, "No, no, it's my fault, I apologise."
I was just about to move past her when she suddenly reached out and grabbed my arm, stopping me in my tracks.
"Hey. Who are you? I don't remember inviting you. You snuck in here didn't you?"
Golden sparks of electricity began to dance around her as the air was charged with her domain.
Wait… There's no way she remembered every single god that she invited to this event, could she? There's at least a million or more of them you know?
Actually… Knowing Lian Li… I can believe that she really did remember all the divines that she had invited to this festival since she's just that much of a genius.
I was still trying to come up with an excuse to get out of this when the lightning around her disappeared just as suddenly as they had appeared.
"Ehehe~ I'm just kidding, Master~ I know it's you!"
Oh.
"How?" I asked, wondering if my barrier that stops anyone from recognising me was not effective against her somehow.
She giggled, "I remember all the gods and goddesses that are invited to this event, so someone who isn't familiar would definitely be Master in disguise!"
She really did remember more than a million faces huh…
I shrugged, "Well… You got me there, though I want to know what you intend to do about it?"
"Ehehe~ Finding you makes me the winner of this event! So let's go somewhere nice where we can--"
"Nooo! Papa is Cai Hong's!" Cai Hong squealed, hugging my leg from the side.
That made Lian Li jump a little as she look down to see Cai Hong pouting at her.
"Eh? Cai Hong? Since when were you here?"
I chuckled, "Ahaha! she's actually been here all this while, she found me almost immediately after I left you girls."
She gasped, "No way?! That means Cai Hong was actually the first one to find Master and won?! Argh!! I lost again?!"
I'm not sure what they were even competing for but I felt a little sorry for her so I just went and patted her head.
"Unnghhh~ Ehehehe~ Master's headpats always feel nice~"
"Muuu!! Papa! Cai Hong wants headpats too! Papaaaa~"
Of course I'll give you headpats too~
Now I am headpatting both girls with both my hands. I'm just grateful that no one is around to see it except for the clones since anyone would be able to figure out who I was just from looking at this.
Just as I was thinking about asking her what was with this event about finding me, I heard the soft sound of something exploding in the distance.
I quickly looked around but I saw no smoke or any indication of the explosion happening within the festival grounds.
"What was that?" I asked.
Lian Li looked up, "Umm… I think some of our guests are fighting? But they're doing it outside so there's no need for Master to worry about it."
I looked up as well and I froze upon seeing what looked like celestial bodies in the sky being flung around in distant space.
The explosion I heard was the result of two planets colliding with each other, which made me wonder how the sound managed to travel from space to here?
"Should I… Should I go and stop them?" I asked.
Lian Li tilted her head at me, "Eh? Why? It's not like it's Master's business if they decide to fight each other for some silly reason, right?"
No, no, no… They're literally throwing planets at each other aren't they? You're telling me to ignore something like that?
Oh wait… I'm supposed to be enjoying my easy life right now… I guess… I'll just let it happen and if things really get serious, I'll just rewind time or something…
Anyway, who wants cookies?
