Autumn seemed to come especially quickly this year.
It had only been less than a month since the start of autumn, and pedestrians wearing thin cashmere shirts began to appear on the streets of the city. A slight chill gradually spread through the air, and the smell of summer seemed to have unhesitatingly left the city.
And on this slightly cool early autumn morning, lying on a deck chair on the balcony and enjoying the warm but not hot sunlight, with a cute little maid standing next to you and serving you delicious tea and snacks, this kind of life … is really too comfortable …
At this moment, Liliana also had a depraved expression as she lay on the deck chair next to me with a straw in her mouth. From time to time, she would tilt her head to take a sip of the orange juice that Anveena passed to her. It was a pity that the appearance of a ten year old loli combined with the actions of an adult would seem strange no matter how one looked at it.
As we quietly enjoyed the leisurely morning, Liliana suddenly stretched her waist and twisted her body on the deck chair. She faced towards me and said, "It's just a pity that the refreshing summer scenery that even perverts would be infatuated with is gone forever."
"That's right, that's right … No!"
Under the illumination of the sunlight and the sleepiness of autumn, a certain someone who was about to fall asleep subconsciously agreed. Then, she suddenly woke up with a start.
That was close, I was almost led into a trap by this black-hearted fake loli. Speaking of which, this brat is really getting more and more arrogant!
"I've already led into a trap."
Liliana grabbed the armrest of the deck chair and pulled her body back to its original position. Then, she smiled and shook her finger, pointing behind me.
At the same time, Shallow Shallow's' gentle 'voice sounded behind me, "Ah Jun … You can't focus on the wild flowers and weeds on the street …"
… Should I find a chance to throw that fake loli next to me into a material recycling furnace so that I can contribute to society!
Facing the dissatisfied tone of Shallow Shallow, I decisively changed the topic. I turned my head to look at Liliana, who had slid down from the bamboo deck chair again and was currently twisting her body to climb back up. I asked in confusion, "Liliana, why didn't you go shopping today?"
"It's boring to shop all the time. It's more comfortable to stay at home …"
Anyone else's words would be more convincing than yours, right?! Is it because you've been running for a month and you're so tired that you can't run anymore? Are you planning to continue shopping after you rest today?!
With a creak, the balcony was pushed open from the opposite side. The elder sister walked over with a rather heavy parcel in her arms. She had a puzzled look on her face, "There's a parcel! Ah Jun, did you buy anything? "
"No …"
I took the square parcel that was about the size of three computer hard drives stacked together from my sister's hands. I found that the recipient was indeed my name, but I really don't remember when I ordered it …
"Why don't you open it?" Liliana urged.
My hand, which was just reaching for the package's seal, instantly froze in place. Then, I turned my head and looked suspiciously at a certain fake loli who had an innocent expression on her face. "Why does your suggestion make me feel a sense of danger?"
"Ma ma, don't mind it, don't mind it. Anyways, mail bombs and anthrax aren't a threat to you … Wu, I'll leave a bit. If I die, it'll be troublesome to revive …"
This despicable fellow who can revive infinitely because of the World Tree … Damn, after her encouragement, I really have to open it and take a look …
"Rip — —"
The parcel's seal was easily torn open.
I casually passed the beautiful thing to the scared Liliana and said, "Look at your crow's mouth."
"Hey hey hey! Don't bring such a dangerous thing over! I'll die! I'll really die! "
"You can revive anyways …"
I muttered, then raised my head and asked my sister, "Sis, what do you think?"
"Looks like we've been targeted." My sister shrugged indifferently, "To the outside world, it looks like a weak and unguarded small organization. Isn't it just right for them to target us?"
In my hand, was a bomb.
Strictly speaking, it was a bomb that had already been detonated. The shell of the bomb had begun to twist and roll, and bright light was spewing out from inside. The solidified flame appeared to have just burst out, and the outer layer of this gorgeous flame was a transparent membrane, wrapping the entire bomb like a weird jelly. This membrane was something that cut off the flow of time inside and outside of the membrane. Inside the membrane, the concept of 'time' had been deleted.
It looked beautiful, like some kind of post-modern art piece, but it was a real murder weapon.
Of course, it wasn't a threat to us.
"Shallow Shallow, how long can this thing last?"
I tossed the stationary mail bomb up and down, then turned to ask the girl who had just stopped the explosion.
"As long as you need, there's no problem even if it detonates at the end of the world."
Liliana carefully poked at the stationary flame that gave off an absolutely solid feeling. Her face carried an expression of lingering fear, "Looks like I'll have to scan these mysterious items that appear out of nowhere in the future."
… Didn't you just encourage me to open the package?
Sandora took the exploding mail bomb from my hand. Under my speechless gaze, she habitually placed the bomb in her mouth and chomped on it. Then, she said, "You're bullying us too much. Ah Jun, what should we do?"
Before that, can I complain about the way you collect information from the outside world?
"Just treat it as a contribution to human society, cleaning up the trash …"
I had always thought of myself as a person who stood aloof from worldly affairs. I loved peace and was approachable. Yep, I didn't mean to boast at all. But from the looks of it, I need to teach some restless fellows a lesson. I need to let them know that my aloof from worldly affairs was built on the basis that the fellows who fought with me were all dead …
"Let's eat, let's eat!" Sandora suddenly shouted. "Let's eat first, we can talk about other things later!"
… I really wanted to know what kind of expression those fellows who sent the mail bomb would have when they found out that their meticulously planned attack didn't even manage to delay our lunch …
However, today's lunch was a little different from usual.
When the usually tardy Bubble was dragged out of the 2D world by Sandora by the ear, Jingle still didn't appear.
Sandora bit on her spoon as she looked at the small specially-made tablecloth on the table, which was now empty. "Although Jingle has been acting mysteriously for the past half a month, she would still appear once the meal is served, right?"
Several gazes turned to the same person at the same time.
"Alright, alright," Liliana raised her hands with a wronged expression. "Seriously, I can't even eat in peace …"
As soon as she said that, Liliana turned into a green light spot and gradually dissipated into the air.
As a life that was directly born from the World Tree, she had the ability to directly teleport herself into the Holy Church of Life. This could be said to be the only ability that Liliana had at the moment.
After a while, Liliana appeared in front of us, holding a black lump in her hand.
"I found it on the Altar of Creation in the Holy Church," Liliana said as she threw the thing in her hand onto the plate in front of me.
Judging from the shape, it gave off a sense of déjà vu …
Cold sweat dripped down my forehead as I placed the black lump into the cup beside me. I added water and covered the mouth of the cup. Then, up and down, left and right, I changed directions and did it again.
A sparkling Jingle!
"Jingle will bite you! Jingle will definitely bite you! Let Jingle down! "
The little thing, whose wings were being held in midair and whose eyes couldn't focus successfully, bared her fangs and claws at the three swaying figures in front of her.
"Speaking of which, what have you been doing recently?" I gently shook the little goddess in my hand and said confusedly, "You even tormented yourself to such a sorry state this time."
"Jingle doesn't need you to care! Let Jingle down! "
I silently picked up the godly tool that was specially used to deal with Jingle from the table: the large water cup!
"Ah … Don't … I'm really dizzy! Stop shaking! "
"Then tell me the truth! What have you been doing for the past few days? I heard from Liliana that you often do experiments in the Holy Church? There was even a huge explosion this time? Are you working on something dangerous? "
My tone was firm, and my face was filled with determination. It wasn't that I didn't want to give her face, but Jingle's recent actions were really strange. Curiosity was one thing, but more importantly, I was worried about this unreliable little thing. Even human scientists could have the danger of a biohazard crisis happening when conducting experiments, so a goddess' experiments couldn't be sloppy at all. Especially when this goddess often had all kinds of problems and her intelligence was seriously unstable. Looking at the situation today, it was obvious that Jingle was in such a sorry state because of her own experiments …
More importantly, if the things that Jingle was experimenting on broke free from the World Tree's barrier and one or two of them escaped from the shadow city …
That would be really interesting … No matter how I thought about it, it would be a far more serious human crisis than the Godzilla incident …
Looking at the determined gazes of me and the girls around me, Jingle, who resisted for a while, finally announced her surrender. The little fellow pouted and tears welled up in the corners of her eyes. She shouted in exasperation, "Fine, fine! Jingle is an idiot! Jingle can't do anything!! Jingle is a hopelessly bad student who couldn't get a beginner's certificate of creation even after 14 make-up exams!!! Wah … "
