Ophis in her loli form, the Oroborus Dragon, the cookie lover and the only living being in the entire world that will annihilate anyone if one of her cookies were stolen, just offered me some cookies?
Is this the legendary dark side, where you got lolis and cookies?
Blinking at her, I didn't know how to respond, but thankfully my [Gamer's mind] managed to kick me out of my paranoiac thoughts.
"Of course, I would love to eat a cookie, my lady," I said while slightly bowing to her as a noble does to another one (A/N: or at least this is what Google-chan told me…)
Thank god Sebastian and Cleria taught me how to properly act as a noble or I would have made a fool out of myself, though I'm pretty sure Ophis doesn't even care about those insignificant things.
"Umu"
I forgot that Ophis doesn't talk that much, but she shows her emotions or at least what emotion she knows using her actions, or at least that's what my people managed to find about her.
Taking a chocolate cookie from her bag, Ophis extended her fragile-looking hand towards me while holding the cookie in that hand and as a gentleman, I gently hold her hand with one of owns while at the same time I picked the cookie with the other one.
After I took my hands back, I looked at Ophis, waiting for her to say something or continue to eat her cookies.
"Eat, cookie is delicious."
I smiled hearing her words and to be fair, as scary as her strength may be, Ophis is just a misunderstood person that only wants to regain her place in the void, unfortunately, she meets me, the future best cookie maker that roamed and lived on this planet.
Without wasting any time I began to eat my cookie and to be fair, it was quite a good one, but like everything that's good, it had to end sometime and that was when I ate the final piece of the cookie.
Meanwhile, Kuroka and the two siblings were glaring at me as if I was their parents' killer or something like that. I didn't attack you first, did I?
Turning my head towards them, I made eye contact with Kuroka and I could see the perk doing its magic on her.
"What?"
"You almost killed Vali-nya, if not for Ophis-sama exiting the shop-nya."
Before I could say something, Ophis walked next to me and looked at Kuroka.
"Baka-neko, he made Baka-white stronger. Now, you…how can you make the world around resemble my Silence?"
That was what she wanted all of this time, am I right [Game]?
[For making a correct assumption for once, you earned one WIS and one INT]
Well, that responds to my question, now how should I tell her about me being from a future universe of this one?
[Just tell her some truth about you, but nothing about the Game, host. She's one of the stronger beings in the whole world for a reason]
"Ophis-chan, can I respond to your question when we are alone? It's quite a sensitive subject for me."
"En, Baka-Neko shoo."
Hearing her words, Kuroka and her friends that could still walk took Vali, his wings, and Bikuo and left through a portal, most likely to their base, and at the same, one of my ghosts followed them through the portal.
"We alone, now tell."
"Where do I even being…I'm from the future or at least the future of a world that's similar to this one and at the same time, I can travel through dimensions."
"I, still curious about the Silence."
"That may have to do with the fact that I had to deal with space and time two times until now and maybe that's why I slowly start to become one with those elements or something along those lines, I'm not too sure myself."
"Hmm, name?"
"Do you want to know my name, Ophis-chan?"
"En."
"My name is Yoshida Haru, nice to meet you, Ophis-chan."
"En."
What did I even expect from her? But even if she didn't say anything a simple nod was enough.
"Ophis-chan, won't your friends worry about you?"
"I, don't have friends, they fight for me against Baka-Red."
"I see, then, would you like to be my friend?"
"What's a friend?"
"A friend is a person that you could talk to without trying to lie or misinform him or control him. A friend is a person you can spend your time doing funny and interesting things and in my case, a friend is someone, who likes cookies as much as you and if you will become my friend, I will bake for you the best cookies that you have eaten ."
"I would like that. You are a strange existence, Haru."
"Tell me about that. Well then, the next time we meet, I'll have a bunch of cookies ready for my cute friend."
"En, later."
"See you later, Ophis-chan."
Just as she was about to leave, Ophis turned towards me and she pointed her finger at me as if she was telling me to come to her which I did without any thought.
When I was in front of her, Ophis dragged me to her level and she kissed me on my left cheek, leaving me stunned, but if that wasn't enough to make a person shocked, the fact that she let a soft giggle as she left almost made me blackout.
