Chapter 1307 Festival Preparations
Chapter 1307 Festival Preparations
(MC POV)
I'm not sure what they were planning for the festival but they've expanded the space to include an open field that was three times the size of my courtyard.
Unfortunately, I have not made this space suitable for non-mortals to enter yet so the people who would be coming here are the gods.
I'm guessing my disciples made use of the connections they made during the battle royale to invite those gods.
Everyone got busy with the setting up of the festival, even me. The only issue was that I was busy tearing things down instead of putting things up because for some reason, my disciples felt that it was a given that there would be decorations of me all over the place.
At first they wanted to put up a giant statue of me in the centre of the field so that everyone could see it no matter where they were within this space and I vehemently rejected it.
Then they wanted to put multiple medium sized statues of me all over the field in various poses and I had to take those down too.
They then suggested making statues of themselves to put around the field and I saw no reason to deny that.
While they stayed true to their word, they neglected in telling me that they will also be adding a statue of me beside theirs.
I accepted most of them since I felt it was still acceptable as they wanted to show how I have guided them to reach where they are today.
Most of them were pretty wholesome and I quite like the look of them as a representation of how far my disciples have come.
Lian Li had a few where it showed me picking her up from her lowest point and guiding her to ascension; Brendan showed the two of us researching alchemical recipes together; even Cai Hong made a few where I played with her and gave her headpats.
But then there's Diao Chan who basically made all of the statues where we were engaged in some kind of BDSM play or another…
Elaria also made some where I was some kind of tyrannical overlord standing over corpses or enslaved beings too…
Yeah… Those I definitely rejected.
After the statues came what they called 'souvenirs' that I had to police as well.
They took quite a long time discussing what they could make for the festival and there were some suggestions that I shut down immediately as soon as they suggested it.
Really? Gravure photos of me? Who the hell would even want those?
And what's with making plushies of me with removable clothing? That's just entirely stupid! I wouldn't mind having a Cai Hong plushie though…
What? Bath water? That's just disgusting and unhygienic! And no, Lian Li, I don't want to know the possibility that someone might want to drink that. That definitely does not make things any better.
I didn't actually consider this before accepting this festival idea but…
When I first heard that they wanted to make this festival, I really thought it would be just like those generic festivals you might find where there's food and game stalls. But for this case they really wanted this festival to be extolling my 'virtues' or something.
As much as I wanted to not be bored, I didn't want to be embarrassed too…
But this was the one thing that they were adamant about not changing.
According to Lian Li when I asked them about it, "There's not enough people in this Universe who know about how great you are, Master! That's why please allow us to show it to the rest of the Universe for you!"
Since they were all pleading at me with puppy eyes, I finally gave in and told them not to go overboard after that.
But of course I still kept an eye on them to shut down anything that I felt would be too embarrassing for me to accept should it leak out to the other gods…
It only took us three days to finish the preparations where most of the time was spent on discussing what they should do rather than actually doing it. Not like they have a problem with materials and manpower now since they were literally ascended divines now. Anything they needed could be created with a simple thought.
The invitations were also quickly received with positive responses so we were expecting there to be quite a big turn out.
I looked at the field that they had expanded to accommodate the expected number of guests. At this size, it was already bigger than the entire Heaven Sect…
I was wondering who was going to man all the stalls and activities they had made and I realised that my disciples had gone ahead to make clones of themselves to take care of everything.
So now there's probably several tens of thousands of them running around the field while the original stayed by my side.
It would have been cute in a way but my attention was currently elsewhere at the moment.
I looked up at the giant stage they had prepared for me.
This was something they created at the very last minute so I didn't know about its existence until now.
It would not have been a problem if it was a normal stage but of course, with what they have been doing so far, this stage was far from normal.
I pointed at the picture painted on the wall of the stage, "Why is there a giant picture of me making a heart shape with my hands with the speech bubble 'love, love' above it?"
"Because this is the 'Love Love Master Festival', Master! That's why we need something like this as the centrepiece of the festival! We can make this into a yearly affair and get people to come here to spread Master's love to everyone!" Lian Li explained.
I want to bend all of them over to spank them right now…
I sighed, "If I were to ask you all to take that down…"
"Waaaahhh! Please don't, Onii-sama!! We even hand painted it ourselves instead of using our powers!!" Elaria pleaded.
Ugh… The fact that they actually made this by hand while also looking at me with such pleading eyes… There's no way I can reject them after that… Even Cai Hong had joined in too since she seemed to have helped paint it as well…
I didn't even know they could draw paint something this good…
"Ugh… Fine… Let's just leave it… I guess I'll just watch over the festival from a hill somewhere…"
"Eh? Master. You are the star of the festival! Of course you'll need to sit on the stage!"
Is it too late for me to take back the idea of this festival now?
