He is a pure-blooded dragon in the miniature garden.

Chapter 248 Young comrade, if you don't know how to say something, don't say it carelessly.

"Thank you, I owe you a favor."

Scáthach pursed her lips and looked at Su Nian gratefully.

"Does it really need to be so heavy-hearted?"

Su Nian gave Scáthach a rather strange look; he felt that Scáthach seemed a little too serious.

This, however, made Su Nian somewhat wary.

Wait a minute? Could this really be some kind of trap?
Thinking of this, Su Nian turned her head and looked at Scáthach with a hint of uncertainty in her eyes.

Seemingly noticing Su Nian's gaze, Scáthach showed a guilty expression and sighed helplessly.

"That's exactly what you think. I'm also a bit confused about what the Halloween Queen is thinking..."

After all, it is well known that the Halloween Queen in the miniature garden is the most willful and powerful being, and the title of "powerful being" was born because of the Halloween Queen.

Originally, the strongest beings referred to those who had reached double digits, but in the Little Garden, an anomaly like the Halloween Queen was born.

Whether it's spirituality, truth, or even personality... in every aspect, the Halloween Queen has reached the double-digit level, and has even gone quite far beyond that level.

But she just couldn't get promoted.

The reason is that the Celestial Spirit of the Primordial Star, White Yaksha, was downgraded to a Sun Celestial Spirit and then blocked her way, causing her to be stuck in the three-digit exceptional position.

The title "Supreme Power" was created to express respect for the Halloween Queen.

As for the Halloween Queen's personality... it's even harder to say; it can only be described as a coexistence of divinity and demonic nature.

Sometimes, the Halloween Queen would have a sudden whim and have all the communities in the North District send her a dessert she'd never seen before, before sunset... and that was only when she was in a good mood.

As for when she's in a bad mood... Scáthach knows this all too well.

The only redeeming quality about the Halloween Queen is that she proactively cleans up the messes she makes, and she is very fair in her rewards and punishments.

Although he was domineering and willful, he was also sensible and knew how to handle things properly.

Unlike the two problem children, White Demon and Arger, who lacked a sense of the bigger picture and ultimately met a tragic end, he was not like them.

Thinking of this, Su Nian narrowed her eyes and asked Scáthach with some uncertainty.

So, what exactly did she say to you?

"Let me tie you up and take you to the banquet she's prepared for you."

Scáthach paused, then shrank back and said.

But right now... she wasn't sure if she could be a match for Su Nian. Who knew how Su Nian could have gone out for a short while and come back with her numbers in the hundreds?
Moreover, it seems that his combat strength is at least in the triple digits and has been accumulated to a very high level.

Well, at least it looks better than what she wanted.

Before she unleashes her spiritual power and completely plunges the world into the shadowy and death-filled realm of Shadow Kingdom, she may not be a match for Su Nian.

The Queen gave the order easily and pleasantly, but this made things difficult for the person carrying it out.

A word from above will break your leg from running down.

But she's at the point where someone is going to break her legs.

It’s bitter~~
"Uh……"

Upon hearing this, Su Nian was surprised for a moment, then frowned.

"Is that really the case? I thought she was planning to give me the sovereignty of the sun she possessed."

After all, Su Nian was collecting solar sovereignty for the twelve zodiac signs for Athena, which was no longer a secret among the Ouroboros' higher-ups.

It was only out of respect for Kurima that the others didn't interfere, and besides, the sovereignty of the sun was actually useless to them.

Besides the Sun God, completing a portion of the Spirit Realm and simulating the Star Chart also requires Solar Sovereignty, and the one with the greatest need for Solar Sovereignty is the Halloween Queen.

She needs to gather all the solar sovereignty to become a true solar spirit and escape the embarrassing situation of being born with a triple-digit superpower.

While it's true that breaking through to the three-digit mark means you can give it your all in the miniature garden... why is she stuck at breaking through to the three-digit mark while others aren't?

Obviously, there is a fundamental difference between three-digit and two-digit numbers, even though the Halloween Queen is no weaker than a typical two-digit number in terms of combat power.

Thinking of this, Su Nian scratched her head, paused, and said with some confusion.

"But that shouldn't be the main problem, right?"

"After all, if the Queen joins Ouroboros, she will have to relinquish sovereignty over a sun as a guarantee, right?"

Even though the Holy Son withdrew for some unknown reason, and the Halloween Queen took over his place, it is clear that truly joining Ouroboros is not so easy.

Especially for someone like the Halloween Queen who joins midway through, ensuring certain things is naturally a must.

And the solar sovereignty, which is very important to the Halloween Queen, is the best guarantee.

After all, both Su Nian and Galgi have a certain need for the sovereignty of the sun, but they only need to hold it temporarily.

The sovereignty of the sun will ultimately return to the hands of the Halloween Queen.

From this perspective, the Halloween Queen isn't at a loss; it's just a way to gain trust.

And the best custodian of this property was none other than Su Nian.

After all, the Halloween Queen wouldn't feel comfortable leaving it with someone else; it wouldn't be good if it became a handle that others could use against her.

Although the probability is very low, it is not impossible.

After all, Su Nian didn't have a strong need for sovereignty over the sun; what she needed was Athena.

"I have absolutely no idea what the Halloween Queen is thinking..."

After much thought, Su Nian finally gave up and turned her gaze to Athena.

"I just hope this isn't a trap."

"What's there to worry about?"

Athena then picked up the teapot and poured Su Nian a cup of tea. Amused, she looked at Su Nian's serious expression and said with a light laugh.

"Or are you worried that something might go wrong if you go like this?"

"Hard to say."

Su Nian picked up her teacup and drank it all in one gulp.

"After all, I really can't figure out the Halloween Queen's attitude."

Are she and Su Nian enemies? No. But they're not exactly allies either.

In terms of their positions, Su Nian and the Halloween Queen actually kept to themselves, and even Kurima did not have any real conflict of interest with the Halloween Queen.

It could be said that there were some grudges, but these grudges were mostly one-sided on Kurima's part by the Halloween Queen, and Kurima himself never paid any attention to them.

"Don't you think your expression right now looks like someone who's been on holiday after final exams, but their homeroom teacher suddenly calls them back to school?"

Upon hearing this description, Su Nian was immediately speechless.

"What a strange analogy that is."

"I think it fits your current expression quite well."

Athena shrugged and said with a smile.

"In a sense, it is."

Su Nian rolled her eyes and looked at Athena with annoyance.

"After the final exams, they thought there was something wrong with my grades, so they called me back to school, but actually gave me a reward..."

At this point, Su Nian paused for a moment, then made a face as if she had a toothache.

"Athena, do you think the Queen of Halloween arranged this on purpose, just to see this conflicted expression on my face?"

Given the Halloween Queen's capricious and wicked personality, Su Nian felt that the probability was not low at all. As for the sovereignty over the sun, that was probably his compensation.

"Do you think the Queen is teasing you on purpose?" Athena asked with a playful expression.

"determine."

Su Nian said firmly.

"If she really wanted to do something, she wouldn't need to go through all this trouble, and Sister Xiaoju isn't someone to be trifled with."

"Since you haven't managed to attract the World King's attention, are you planning to use you to do so?"

Athena said with a playful look in her eyes, at which point she seemed to understand why the Halloween Queen was called a problem child.

That's really typical childish thinking.

Su Nian was speechless upon hearing this.

"You think this is... well, it's actually quite possible."

Su Nian said with a strange expression, "There are only wrong names, not wrong nicknames."

After all, both Argel and White Demon have experienced enough painful lessons and failures in a certain sense. Although they still have some problems with their personalities, they have grown a lot.

Only the Halloween Queen, being the most willful and clever, didn't learn any lessons and instead became more like a child in personality.

Su Nian seemed to understand why Kurima ignored the Halloween Queen.

How to describe the Halloween Queen? She's the type who gets more interested the more you engage with her or even oppose her; ignoring her will only make her feel bored.

Of course, it's also possible that they'll get even more excited.

At this moment, Su Nian turned to look at Scáthach, only to see that Scáthach had stopped smiling and was speaking very seriously.

"I didn't hear anything."

"..."

I haven't even asked you anything yet! You're so quick to deny it; there seems to be something wrong with you.

Su Nian glanced at Scáthach speechlessly.

"I just wanted to ask when we're leaving."

"Scáthach, the way you're acting, I always feel like you're hiding something?"

Su Nian looked at Scáthach with a hint of amusement in her eyes.

"..."

You've almost guessed it already, haven't you?

Scáthach couldn't help but think to herself.

It's no wonder she defeated the goddess of wisdom in Arger with a casual move; her control over the queen's personality is truly unparalleled.

Even the canary of yesteryear couldn't have been this bad, could they?
Let alone Su Nian, even she, listening from the side, almost felt that this was the Halloween Queen's real plan.

But would she dare to admit it? For a subject, it is a grave taboo to speculate on the emperor's personality and have ulterior motives.

All she needed to do was remain loyal to the Halloween Queen and become the sharpest gun and the most convenient tool in the Halloween Queen's hands.

Anyone who dared to try to outsmart the Halloween Queen is probably already dead, their grave covered in weeds.

To be honest, Scáthach would suspect that the Halloween Queen might have played a part in Canary's exile three years ago.

After all, this position originally belonged to Canary. She was the Queen of the Land of Shadows back then, until Canary schemed against her and took this position.

If the Queen hadn't found it boring, she wouldn't have let the canary go so easily.

The best way to make the Queen lose interest is to cooperate and then smile.

However, it's difficult to control this balance; it's easy to accidentally ruin yourself. Only a monster like a canary can keep it under control.

She looked at Scáthach, who was squinting and smiling at her.

"Oh, I'm sure you don't know anything."

Su Nian nodded seriously, then stroked her chin and said.

Scáthach's face darkened. "You'd better be really sure I don't know anything."

But I'm afraid I'll have to put up with this. I just hope the Halloween Queen won't go too far.

Scáthach sighed inwardly; she couldn't be sure whether the Queen knew about what was happening here.

However, it's best to prepare for the worst in advance.

"So, is there anything else you want to say before you die?"

"I can give you a little more time."

"The funeral arrangements..."

Su Nian raised an eyebrow, then looked at Scáthach speechlessly.

"It seems this really is a trap. Ms. Nascáthach, please help me decline the Queen's offer."

"..."

Upon hearing this, Scáthach chuckled and looked at Su Nian helplessly.

"You really don't like to suffer any loss."

She was just venting her malice a little, wasn't she? Because of Su Nian and Athena's analysis, she's about to be in trouble.

So all I can do is try to gain an advantage verbally.

As a result, Su Nian retorted.

"Sorry, the bitterest thing I've ever eaten in my life is an iced Americano."

Su Nian looked at Scáthach quietly, and after the other party became somewhat uncomfortable, she said with a hint of pride.

Everyone says that suffering a loss is a blessing, but Su Nian doesn't care for this blessing.

Tsk, another one who's just as extraordinary as that White Demon.

Scáthach was both angry and amused, feeling that Su Nian was deliberately teasing her.

But seeing that Su Nian showed no intention of moving, she gradually stopped smiling.

"You're not really not planning to go, are you?"

Scáthach's throat bobbed involuntarily, and her eyes showed a hint of panic.

No? Just because of one wrong sentence he said, the previously favorable situation has been ruined. Could Su Nian really be planning to reject the Halloween Queen?

Should I start preparing for my own funeral?

"Of course not."

Su Nian looked at Scáthach with a grin and patted her on the shoulder.

"Young comrade, if you don't know how to say something, don't say it carelessly."

"..."

"It seems you've only been two months..." Scáthach forcibly suppressed her urge to complain, and watched as Su Nian's face twitched.

I've been played again, just like I always have.

Fortunately, she had prepared a series of impromptu kneeling scenarios in her mind, so Su Nian let her off so easily.

As expected, I am just a martial artist; otherwise, I wouldn't have dared to trick Canary.

Scáthach took a deep breath, then another, finally calming herself down before speaking expressionlessly.

"So, can we leave now? Her Majesty the Queen is probably getting impatient."
