Chapter 141: Trouble
Ai muttered putting a hand on her beating chest while looking at the red lucky charm in her hand.
She opened the lucky charm and what out from it was the black card with his name.
It was the card she could use to enter his shop at any time.
"But I'll figure it out because I want you Adam," Ai looked at the card.
She wouldn't stop until she had what she wanted, the joy of being a mother, the joy of being an idol, and now she wanted the joy of being in love with someone.
And she will not stop, because, in her own words, Hoshino Ai is a greedy girl who wants everything.

"So, why did you come here again?" The Administrator of Ai's world asked as she saw Adam.
But he had a very good reason for coming here.
"I wanted to ask you about something," Adam felt like he needed to ask this but the administrator shook her head.
"I know what you will ask, It is about the time adjustment right?" The Administrator asked and Adam nodded.
"Why did you do that?" Adam had felt that the settings were tampered with in that place because more than 100 years would've actually passed if it hadn't.
That is why he asked that, Why did this happen when he never asked for it?
And the answer he got was simple, but…
"The Goddess of Wishes asked me to," The girl answered and Adam was shocked.
"What? Why would she ask that?" His question was based on many reasons after he met the Goddess last time but…
"You didn't ask her to?" The girl looked confused at this moment, she knew that Adam was someone connected to that being so she thought he was asking a favor of sorts.
'No, I mean it wouldn't make sense for her, since he can just ask me about it directly,' The Girl frowned as she saw Adam shake his head to answer her question, this all seemed very out of place, and…
"Well, not that it matters because you got what you wanted, right?" She asked and Adam stopped what he was thinking about and looked at her.
"That's not the point, the important thing is, why would she do that?" Adam asked since there was no way to take this as a simple thing.
There had been no times where he had asked for this and he didn't think she would do this on her own given her personality, but…
"You are really overthinking it, She told me to do it saying that you were worrying over it," The girl said and Adam froze in place.
"She …said that?" Adam asked and the girl nodded making his mind race again.
'Was it because of that day? No, the more important question is, which one was it? Was it her or the other one?' Adam's mind stopped at one place and he asked the question.
"Did she have her blindfold on and did she have it off with a look smug enough to make you want to punch her face in?" The more Adam spoke the more confused the administrator became.
"What are you talking about?" She frowned because the words Adam said sounded highly illogical.
"Why are you acting like you can see her?" The Administrator really thought that Adam had lost it at this point.
'I mean he has been acting weird since before, but today is even more, He really must've lost it,' She looked at Adam who was blinking in confusion as he couldn't understand her reaction.
But he spoke up since he had a bad feeling about this…
"Of course, I can see her, Are you telling me that you can't?" Adam asked and the girl shook her head like it was obvious.
"No one can, we can just hear her voice and even that is taxing to us," She just didn't bother to say more than this since in her mind Adam had finally gone mad in all sense of the word.
'Wait, what? Is the one I am seeing the real one?' Adam wondered if it was some sort of hallucination the voice made just because they had a contract as a visual representation.
'No, she was real,' But Adam had indeed checked, the person in front of him was real, Well he was forced into it, and even then it was certainly true.
'It could be that I can see her because of that contract? Yeah, that seems like the answer, I can see her physical body since we have a link since I essentially work under her,' But what made Adam feel something was amiss in the latter part of the administrator's words.
'The only time I felt a presence from her that was threatening was when she attacked or more like a playful attack since she did it slow enough for me to move out of the way, Other than that I have been fine talking to her for hours, I didn't feel it was taxing at all,' Adam was still thinking about this since the only threat he felt the Goddess other than that day was her insatiable hunger at times and even that wasn't much of a problem.
"If you want to figure this out do it somewhere else, your presence is more distracting to me," The girl said making Adam come out of his thoughts.
"Ok, I will, but I have a question," Adam agreed but he wanted to ask another thing now that the topic has been brought up.
"What?"
"Will the time here be the same as it is now?" Adam asked a very important question, it was something that had stopped him from coming here again for a long time and because of that, what he feared the most almost came true.
'The way he acted to my greeting gave it away, but I guess it seems natural when he had relations going on down there,' And The administrator understood that which is why….
"Yes, But if you waste any more of my time then it might just return to normal," The Administrator said and Adam just waved at her before disappearing in an instant.
"Sigh, what a troublesome man," She sighed but then her eyes landed on the pile of boxes that were left where Adam was standing before.
And there was a note stuck on them which read, Thank You.
She went over and opened on box only to find it filled with lollipops, the one he had given her before.
"Well, I guess …he is much better than the other one, that bitch pisses me off," She shook her head as she unwrapped one of the lollipops that she had been meaning to ask him about.
"Not that I care, I need to get my work done, whatever happens outside of here is none of my concern," She shrugged and got back to her work or she wanted to because...
"My My, you really like bad-mouthing people behind their backs?" The Administrator sighed and turned back to look at the voluptuous woman in a revealing dress, she had just casually walked out of the door with a wide grin on her face.
And looking at her face there was only one thing the Administrator had to say.
"No,"
"What? At least let me ask for it," The woman whined but the little girl was unfazed.
"And I know what you will ask since this is the fifth time, you should learn a little tact and not waste my time," The Administrator wasn't one to falter on this, but it was just that…
"I have been tactful till now, but I certainly don't mind trying a new way to get inside there since you are so adamant about stopping me," The woman looked about ready to attack as her black hair moved around wildly because of the insane amount of Mana she released.
"You really think you can beat me in my own domain?" The Administrator frowned as she waved her hand and the woman lost nearly 50% of her mana, In simple words the Administrator put a limiter on her because she was going against her.
'I can handle someone like her easily here even if she is stronger than me,' She thought looking at the woman as other than just mana, there have been several other limiters put on her opponent.
"Tch, My Goddess can't you see this? She is stopping me from doing my work, this is a blatant violation of her authority," The woman shouted looking above and the Administrator nearly rolled her eyes at this lie, of course in a way it could be seen this way.
And the Administrator would like to plead her case before it goes any further, But it seemed like what she wanted to say had reached the person the woman was trying to contact.
