"I'm so tired…Phew... Phew... This Du Qiangwei is deliberately messing with me…"
Mu Xingchen was lying on the table with a tired look on her face. Qilin was not any better. She was a proper young lady and had never cleaned a house before. If she did not want to help Little Chen, she might not have done such a thing in her life.
"Rest for a while. I'll accompany you to buy some daily necessities in the afternoon."
Qilin laid on the table and wiped the sweat off her face. She stared at Mu Xingchen who was lying opposite her.
"Little Chen…"
"What's wrong?"
"I've been thinking about how you sent me to the hospital that day, but after seeing the news today, I seem to understand…"
"…Qilin, do you think I'm an alien or a monster?”
"No, I've never thought of it that way…"
"That's good…"
"Can you tell me…Your true identity?"
"You don't believe me?"
"No, I just want to understand you better…"
After saying this, Qilin deliberately turned her face away and didn't look at him. Her words made her feel embarrassed.
"To tell you the truth, I'm really an Earthling, a human, a citizen of Huaxia, not an alien.”
"I believe you."
"Really?"
"Yes, I believe you won't lie to me."
"You are really silly…"
Hearing Qilin's words, Mu Xingchen felt a warmth in her heart as she mumbled softly.
"Little Chen, what did you say just now?”
"It's nothing…"
The two of them rested on the table for a while and chatted casually. When they looked at the time, it was already 3:40 p. m.
"Chen, why don't we go out for a walk and buy some daily necessities? What do you think?”
"Alright, let's go now."
......
On the street, the two of them bought a lot of things, but most of them were daily necessities, such as a water heater, a kettle, and other miscellaneous things. The two of them were walking side by side on the road. The more they looked, the more they looked like a pair.
Qilin ate the ice cream in small bites. She would turn her head to look at Mu Xingchen from time to time and then smile sweetly at him, making Mu Xingchen dizzy.
At this moment, a discordant figure appeared in front of them. It was a tall Taotie Warrior in white armor. He descended from the sky and appeared in front of Mu Xingchen and Qilin.
Qilin was scared out of her wits. She threw away the ice cream in her hand and took out the pistol she carried with her. Without a word, she fired a few shots at the alien. After all, she had seen it before. This kind of alien could easily destroy tanks and helicopters. Its combat power was terrifying.
After a few shots, it was useless. Many passers-by were scared away, and some bold ones were taking videos with their phones.
Mu Xingchen looked at the alien in front of him with a serious expression. She placed the two big bags in her hands on the ground and asked.
"How should I address you?"
"Devour Howl!"
"What can I do for you?"
"By the order of my God Karl, I have come to invite you."
“... I don't know this Carl you're talking about, you've got the wrong person."
Mu Xingchen looked at the alien speechlessly. However, since Qilin had already shot him a few times, he did not make a move. He would first use the civil way and then use the martial way if it really did not work.
" General Carlos, my God Karl hopes that you can visit the Death Song Academy as a guest. I hope that you won't make things difficult for me…"
“... You've got the wrong person. I'm not Carlos."
When Mu Xingchen heard this alien called him Carlos, he was a little shocked. How could he admit it? He couldn't deny it decisively.
" I know you're not Carlos, but you're the reincarnation of Carlos. The remnant soul of General Carlos is with you…"
Shixiao explained to Mu Xingchen politely. If it was before, how could he talk to a human for so long? He would have been slapped to death long ago.
"Little Chen…"
Qilin also looked at Mu Xingchen with a puzzled expression. She suddenly felt that she could not see through him. This feeling made her heart feel empty.
“... What if I don't agree to go? What will you do? Take me away?"
Mu Xingchen looked at Qilin's doubtful gaze and felt uncomfortable. They were originally on good terms and were just short of saying something like 'you can be my girlfriend'. Now, she was embarrassed by this big guy.
"I can't say for sure. It depends on my God Carl."
"Ke ke, to be honest, I am indeed a little unhappy that my secret has been seen through by you with a single glance…"
"I can't see through you at all. This is all what my God Karl told me…"
"Devouring Howl, right?"
"That's right."
"Go back and tell God Karl to give up on this idea. I won't go to the Dead Song Academy. Alright, you can go now."
“...”
Shi Xiao stared at Mu Xingchen without saying a word. It seemed like he didn't know what to do. What happened in the morning was enough to prove that he was not someone to be trifled with. He did not even have a Void Engine, so how could he be a match for him? What should he do…
"Why aren't you leaving yet?”
"General Carlos, why don't you show yourself? What's the point of hiding on a human?”
At this moment, Mu Xingchen's body suddenly emitted purple-red starlight. A purple-red light ball ran out of Mu Xingchen's body and landed on the ground.
A long-haired man wearing a robe appeared in front of them. Qilin looked like she had seen a ghost in broad daylight as she stared at the man in the ancient robe in disbelief.
After Carlos came out of Mu Xingchen's body, Mu Xingchen only felt a little suffocated. After taking a few deep breaths, he was fine. He raised his head and looked at his master.
"Master…"
However, Carlos didn't pay attention to him. He just looked at the Howler Devourer with a calm expression.
" The Taotie warriors of the Netherworld River civilization?"
"Greetings, General Carlos."
After seeing the owner, Devour bowed to Carlos to show that he didn't have any ill intentions. He was mainly afraid that he would be killed.
"I didn't expect that I, Carlos, would be quite famous in this universe…"
"You must be joking…"
"Carl seems to have appeared twenty thousand years ago, right?”
"I don't know about these little ones. They don't have such a long life."
"Devour Howl, go back and tell Carl that I know what he wants, but I have the initiative now. Tell him to behave himself and not bother me. Otherwise, I'll make him wait for more than 100,000 years, but he won't get what he wants. Get lost!"
"This…"
"Hmm?"
Seeing that Devour was still not leaving, Carlos's eyes revealed some killing intent. Seeing this situation, Devour quickly flew away, afraid that he would be killed. That would not be worth it.
Seeing Devour Howl leave, Carlos turned back to look at Mu Xingchen and then at Qilin. He felt a sense of familiarity from this girl, but he did not know what it was.
"Little Chen..."
Being stared at by this ghost made Qilin feel uneasy. She pulled Mu Xingchen's arm, perhaps this would make her feel a little more at ease.
"It's okay. He's my master. He won't hurt you. Don't worry."
"Yes…"
" Little Chen, the interstellar war is coming. Remember, you must protect the people you care about. Don't be like me, regretting it for the rest of your life…"
After saying that, Carlos turned into a purple-red ball of light and disappeared into Mu Xingchen's body.
"Little Chen, will you be alright?"
Seeing the ghost run into Mu Xingchen's body, Qilin panicked, afraid that something would happen to him.
"I'm fine... Let's go back."
Mu Xingchen picked up the two bags on the ground and walked back to the academy.
On the way, the two of them did not speak to each other. Qilin's nervous and serious gaze made Mu Xingchen very uncomfortable. Finally, Mu Xingchen broke the silence first.
"Qilin, are you..."
"No, I haven't."
Before Mu Xingchen could finish, Qilin denied him, leaving Mu Xingchen at a loss for words.
"To be honest, I've never had any good friends since I was young. Ever since I finished high school, I've been hanging out every day. I had nothing to do and couldn't find a good job. I didn't have any goals in life either. It felt like my life had passed. But after I met you, I suddenly felt that I wasn't as lonely as before. It's really quite happy to have someone who's willing to talk to me…"
"Little Chen, I..."
" You don't have to say anymore. I know that you think I'm an alien and a monster now. I understand, but I still have to thank you. I'm very happy today…"
" I don't know who you are, nor do I know who your master is. Of course, I don't want to know all this. I only know one thing. When I was with you, every minute and every second was very happy. When I was separated from you in the hospital, I thought about you every day. I wondered when I would see you again and whether I would never see you again…"
"Qilin…"
"I don't care who you are or who you are, but I'm willing to believe you. I like you, Little Chen..."
When Qilin said this, she was so embarrassed that she couldn't even lift her head. She really didn't expect that she would confess to someone she had only known for a few days. However, the feeling of being certain of him was real. Perhaps this was love at first sight. Fate was really a wonderful thing.
"I..."
Mu Xingchen was stunned by Qilin's words. She never thought that a poor loser like him would one day receive a confession from his goddess. Did happiness come too suddenly?
Qilin looked up at Mu Xingchen who remained silent for a long time. Her eyes were filled with confusion.
