The Goddess Is Obsessed With Me [Complete]

Chapter 78

"Immediately send back the gods gathered at the academy."

The principal's office was filled with a cold voice, a mix of negotiation and threat.

"Why not just wait a bit longer since they won't be here for long?"

The atmosphere was suffocating with its intense pressure.

"Our plans are being interrupted now, do you think we are unaware of your intentions? Such struggling is merely delaying the inevitable... Our objective is just a matter of time."

Arsia incisively exposed the principal's intentions, causing her to bite her lip in frustration.

"Time is plenty, but I don't want to waste it on useless things. So, I respectfully request that you send away the gods who are searching for us."

She spoke firmly, clearly not wanting to continue any further discusshion.

"I think it's better to leave them alone."

However, the principal, unwilling to always be on the receiving end, forcefully brought out a confident demeanor.

'I must buy some time... somehow for Aris...'

She didn't want to back down this time and was fighting her best in this one-sided relationship.

"Hmm... What kind of futile thoughts are you having now, displaying such deceptive behavior?"

To the cult members standing in front of her, even the oldest spirits seemed trivial in comparison.

She was powerful enough to obliterate them with a mere thought.

"The event ends today anyway... The gods will leave by evening, so it's better to wait."

Despite this, she had to back down, unable to comply with their demands.

"It's a waste of time, that's why we came here, isn't it?"

But she couldn't accept her fate so easily and continued to buy time by persuading them with plausible reasons.

"If I request the gods to leave as you want, wouldn't that raise suspicions?"

The cult leader paused, slightly taken aback by her words.

"What did you say...?"

Reacting with dissatisfaction, she still managed to force a smile at them. "Cancelling an ongoing event in full swing... Especially when it's supposed to end today. Forcibly stopping it now might actually make the gods suspicious and lead them to investigate this academy even more."

A plausible excuse, crafted from her various life experiences.

"You know, right? The bad rumors spreading from this academy have reached the outside... Even now, several divine factions are secretly moving to uncover the academy's dark secrets, aren't they?"

She suggested this not-so-subtle advice to them with a brighter smile, as if delivering a final blow.

"That's why we decided to resolve this misunderstanding by holding an open event today, aiming to clear up any misconceptions."

Arsia's words seemed to make them understand to some extent, their previously relaxed atmosphere turning slightly solemn.

"But if we just close down this well-going event, wouldn't it rather arouse suspicion and make the divine factions move more aggressively?"

As her words ended, a brief silence fell in the principal's office, but it didn't last long.

"Remember, your actions won't cause any delay in our plans. It's just a temporary obstacle; our plans are still a matter of time."
