Since Lily moved into the house, Hao Ren's furniture, doors, and windows would break down every now and then. But on the other hand, Lily's repair skills had improved. After all, her income as an idle veterinarian and an unpopular author was limited. She could not afford to repair a new set of furniture every few days. So, she had to improve her repair skills. Hao Ren reminded the husky maiden. Lily looked up and saw the big face of her landlord on the steel security door. It was a vivid image. Not only the face, but the outline of half a hand was printed under the face, which showed the resistance and hesitation of the owner of the face at the moment of the door's attack. The husky's ears drooped, and she began to repair the door.
The husky's door was different from others. Lily did not even need tools to repair the door. She just held the door and patted it with her hands. The uneven marks on the door were instantly smoothed out. Not to mention Hao Ren's face, even the few decorative patterns on the door were flattened like mirrors. In fact, due to the frequent occurrence of similar incidents, the steel security door with many beautiful patterns had now been completely flattened. Hao Ren had no doubt that other than the door frame, the other parts of the door had actually been as thin as paper by Lily.
Lorissa followed Hao Ren into the "palace" that was completely different from what she had imagined. The first thing she saw was a large living room with all kinds of strange furniture. There were a few doors and a staircase around the living room, which should lead to other rooms and the second floor. On a low cabinet opposite the living room, a square flat device was showing a lifelike picture. A smiling woman was holding a colorful bag and introducing it. "This cat food is a key product of our show. For cats over two years old …"
On the coffee table in the middle of the living room, the cat maiden was squatting on the table, staring intently at the screen, drooling. When she heard Hao Ren entering the house, the dumb cat immediately turned around and jumped down. She scurried to Hao Ren's side and shook the latter's collar. "Big dumb cat! I want to eat that, I want to eat that, you go and buy me that now! "
While shaking the cat maiden, she pointed at the cat food advertisement on the TV. Her eyes were so bright that they were almost glowing.
"Go away. I just bought you a lot of canned food a while ago. Why don't you eat it?" Hao Ren slapped the dumb cat's paw away. "How many times have I told you not to squat on the coffee table when watching TV!"
Vivian heard the noise in the living room. She pushed open the kitchen door and poked her head out. "Hao Ren, you are back. Is this Lorissa?"
"Hello, everyone." Lorissa looked around the living room, smiled and bowed. She then raised her hand and outlined a magic dispelling rune. She instantly restored her original silver-haired and elven long ears. "Hao Ren said that it is better to disguise yourself when you are outside. Otherwise, it will attract unnecessary attention. But it should not matter here, right?"
As soon as Lorissa's voice trailed off, Nangong Wuyue in her octopus form staggered down the stairs from the second floor. Each tentacle of the siren maiden's lower body was wrapped in a rag. While wiping the stair handrails and steps, Nangong Wuyue waved her other two tentacles at Hao Ren. "It doesn't matter. Look at how many people in this house keep their human appearance …"
Y 'zaks looked up from the newspaper. "I keep my human form at home."
"You're the only one who has no right to say that. You look like an alien in your human form," Hao Ren said casually before looking for the demon girl. "Y 'zaks, where's your daughter?"
"Repairing my electric scooter in the backyard." Y 'zaks grinned. He did not mind Hao Ren's teasing. He was used to it anyway. "Why? Looking for her?"
"While Lorissa is staying at our house for a few days, let the little girl learn shapeshifting from her so that she doesn't have to wear contact lenses and a hat every time she goes out. Her tail is tied around her waist." Hao Ren took off his coat and threw it to Rollie. As he walked to the sofa, he said casually, "Can you change your vehicle? It's hard for you to carry yourself on your electric tricycle, and you have to pull a bunch of fridges, TV sets, and washing machines every day. I feel bad for that tricycle … Rollie! I gave you the clothes for you to hang, not for you to sleep on the floor! "
Y 'zaks heard about shapeshifting and laughed awkwardly. "Hey, it's the same if she learns from me. I'm going to teach her soon."
Hao Ren rolled his eyes. "Forget it. I don't see her learning anything other than making fireballs with you all day long. Look in the mirror. Can you see your shapeshifting spell?"
Y 'zaks thought for a moment and could not help but agree.
Lorissa watched with interest as Hao Ren and his family communicated with each other. She always had a smile on her face. Unlike the indifferent smile she often showed in Holletta, her smile seemed to be full of warmth at this moment. Lily noticed it when she came back from repairing the door. She was a person who could not keep her mouth shut. She went up to Lorissa and asked, "What are you laughing at?"
"Nothing. It just feels … good." Lorissa blinked. "I thought I would be arranged to live in a strict church palace, but I did not expect the pope to live in such a lively place … I don't know how to describe it, but it's much better than I thought at first."
"You really don't know our landlord," Lily said, pursing her lips. "He's just a freeloader. I have never seen him come here by any rules. The goddess gave him a Bible, and he almost padded the table. And to be honest, if this place is really as strict as you said, I would have left a long time ago. I used to wander around the world to my heart's content. Landlord, I'm hungry! Battie, I'm hungry! "
Lorissa looked at Lily, stunned. She could not figure out how Lily could suddenly change the topic to hunger before she even finished talking. But if Lorissa knew what kind of husky was on Earth, she would not think so. For Lily, no one could stop her from saying that she was hungry. When it came to mealtime, the girl was as accurate as an atomic clock.
"Come to the kitchen and serve yourself!" Vivian poked half of her body out of the kitchen again. "You only care about eating and not doing anything. Now you don't even want to serve yourself?"
Lily's ears pricked up. She scampered to the kitchen and said, "Oh, I'm coming! I'm coming! I'll be the first to serve! "
"Vivian has always been the one cooking in our house. You have to try her cooking," Hao Ren smiled and invited Lorissa to the table. "She has brought out all her cooking skills for you, our distinguished guest."
Vivian came over with a plate of Kung Pao Chicken. She smiled and said, "I still have a lot of cooking skills. If I bring them all out, the living room will not be able to accommodate them. Do you know how many recipes have been created in the past 10,000 years? The lost recipes alone are enough to feed Lily for three years."
Lily had just sat down at the table with a big bowl of rice. She looked up and asked, "Why are you using me as the unit of measurement?"
"Because you are not a picky eater. Others might not be able to eat Egyptian roasted beetles." Vivian glanced at the husky maiden and then saw the bowl in Lily's hand. "I asked you to serve, but you only serve your own bowl. Can't you at least serve a few dishes?"
"All right, don't count on her." Hao Ren smiled and stood up. "I'll go."
As soon as he stood up, he saw a mass of tentacles crawling out of the kitchen. Each tentacle was holding a plate. Wuyue's voice came from the tentacles. "Mr. Landlord, you don't have to go. I've brought them all!"
The scene gave Hao Ren goosebumps. "F * ck! Wuyue, can you not turn into such a creepy thing when you're eating? I thought it was Cthulhu coming out to serve the dishes! "
The meal was a joyous one. Vivian's 10,000-year culinary skills were no joke. She had basically reached the level of a pot of tea, smoked marijuana, mixed beef tendon, and forgot about Harrods. Lorissa could not find anything more delicious than this meal, not to mention the ones she had eaten before.
After dinner, it was time for the demons and monsters to grab the TV. It was inevitable that they would be in a state of chaos. They did not really want to grab the show, but they were indulging in the joy of grabbing the TV. It was probably the same as when Hao Ren was a child fighting for the last piece of potato chip. Anyway, the protagonists of grabbing the TV were always Lily and Rollie, or Y 'lisabet and Lil Pea. So Hao Ren understood their childish behavior. When the noise in the living room started, he went to a quiet corner and stayed there.
After a while, he saw Lorissa coming from the side. "Not used to such a noisy environment?" he asked casually.
"No, I actually think it's quite good," Lorissa shook her head. "It's just that I still feel surprised."
"Then you have to work hard to get used to it. This is the way of my family," Hao Ren shrugged. "You can't always use the environment in your head to set the rules here."
Lorissa smiled. "But I was born in a world where religious belief is supreme. My memory, inherited from the original, has deeply engraved the solemn church and the sacred clergy in my mind. These things can't be changed in a short time."
"I can understand that." Hao Ren leaned back in his chair, smiling as he watched Rollie jumping up and down to grab the remote control from Y 'lisabet in the living room, and Lil Pea flashing and teleporting everywhere in the air to annoy them. "I guess you won't be able to find such a' Pope's Palace 'except for my place. In fact, I have many colleagues in this universe, and they also hold the position of pope in their respective civilization spheres. Whether they are enthusiastic when preaching or not, they are more serious than I am. By the way, can you tell me about your situation back then? How did the church of the goddess of creation operate in the era of the Magic Empire? How did you communicate with the goddess? "
