> present without worrying! If something happens, I'll fix it.❞

One could even say that a special bond exists between them, bound by their love of yo-yos!

❝Aww, Dan Heng! That makes me really happy. My protégé is so sweet!❞

Unable to stop herself, Senadina patted him on the head.

❝Don't put so much pressure on yourself, okay? I want you to enjoy your >

> gift, her heart pounding. Eventually, she breathed a sigh of relief.

❝Ah, I'm so glad! I thought long and hard about it. Now you have your own yo-yo to use; it's one-of-a-kind.❞

Even though she's teaching him how to yo-yo, they're still friends! At least that's what Senadina thinks. So, of course she'd celebrate his birthday.

❝You're very welcome! Now open it, open it! I can't wait for you to see.❞

With bated breath, the red-haired girl waited for him to open the >

> with a beautifully illustrated dragon.

As his yo-yo instructor, there's no way she could miss his birthday! That's why she's currently running over to him.

❝ @clovdpiercer.bsky.social, happy birthday! I have a present for you.❞

With a smile on her face, she handed him a medium-sized box. Inside the gift was a yo-yo, decorated >

> I can't wait to try it.❞

Without hesitation, Sena took a bite from the exact same spot Hua had. She couldn't help but hum in delight as she chewed.

❝It's so yummy! This festival really has delicious food.❞

❝But...? You really look as though you've seen a ghost, Hua. It's actually me.❞

It wasn't a silly wish! And if Senadina heard her say that, she'd definitely pout. The Marshal wasn't the only one feeling that way. She wanted to see Hua too, after all.

❝Hehe~ I'm glad you liked it! My turn, then. >

> insisted that the Marshal take the first bite.

❝Look, Hua! I picked this up to share. Doesn't it look so tasty? Take a bite!❞

Hua's really surprised to see her, huh? Mission successful!

Senadina couldn't believe they were so close to each other! How lucky! Brimming with excitement, the red-haired girl ran over to the Marshal.

❝Huh? Of course it's me, silly! Who else would it be? Do you know two Senadinas?❞

With a bright smile on her face, Sena held the Qiaoguo towards Hua. She >

❥ THAT'S RIGHT... HUA GETS TO SEE THE GODDESS SENA OUTFIT.

> hair, sending it fluttering around her shoulders.

❝Hua? Hua, over here!❞

> Ah, mister, can I have one Qiaoguo please?❞

The red-haired girl asked, intending to share the delicacy with Hua. She can't wait to see her.

After receiving the food, she suddenly heard the sound of her name. Is that... Hua? As she turned towards the source of the noise, the wind caught her >

As if fate had granted the Marshal's wish, Senadina was already on the Xianzhou for the Qixi festival. She had hoped to surprise Hua.

Sena, dressed in different attire than usual, strolled down the street, her eyes searching for Hua while admiring the decorations.

❝Wah! Everything's so pretty! >

So cute! I can feel the love you put into it, Lantern!

(Don't mind her, she's just filming the entire interaction.)

One more time with feeling!

Songque would be the cutest cabbage, though. Especially with the little sunglasses!

Likewise! If it happened to her, she'd nurture the little Songque cabbage!

Would everyone still love her if she turned into a cabbage?

❝Don't be shy! I'm not going to laugh at you.❞

Senadina intently watched his performance. It definitely needs some improvement, but he has talent!

❝Hmm... Okay, we'll be continuing the lessons! You haven't quite surpassed me yet.❞

> onis? All these cup noodles are for you!❞

❝That's a secret! You never know, maybe you did mention it.❞

Actually, how did she know about his birthday...? It felt like the information was already there in her head.

Never mind, it's not important!

❝Summoning you. I've heard that summoning circles work for demons, so I thought, why not >

> visit again!❞

Of course. What else would he mean?

Why? Despite it only being a faint smile, it's still the first time he's ever done so around her! That must mean he feels comfortable with her.

❝Well, I know that! You just seem like the type to dislike talking to others. I bet you try to avoid conversations.

If the food is yummy, we'll have to >

> rest here? There's plenty of space!❞

The red-haired girl shuffled over, patting the empty space next to her.

After hearing an unfamiliar voice, Senadina slowly opened her eyes. She was greeted by the sight of Phainon's inquisitive expression.

❝Senadina.❞

Her purple eyes seemed to shimmer in the light, as vibrant as ever. It took her a moment to grasp the situation.

❝Ah, I'm sorry! Would you like to >

❝You had a certain intention when preparing the food, right? You want everyone to enjoy themselves. The love you put into the food is magical.❞

> when shared with others. Or should I say, with you?❞

❝Huh? You should totally believe me. It's the truth! My energy levels increase when I have enough vitamin Songque.❞

Exactly! It's part of her personality. If Senadina wasn't that enthusiastic, wouldn't Songque be worried?

❝I appreciate the gift, but I'm totally sure! Chocolate tastes better >

❝Hehe~ I did it! But we can't celebrate just yet. We're not in the clear until the mini-Sena lands in the prize zone.❞

As the plushie moved across to the win zone, Senadina held her breath. All the plushie has to do is fall down without bouncing out.
