Variety: I Loaded the Dream Game

Amisha lowered her head and explained in a low voice: "So, I made these desserts, I hope you will like them."

It turned out that he was a very hospitable father.

Xia Zhi thought in her heart, looked at the girl in front of her and asked, "Then I would like to thank you for your kindness."

"but……"

"But?" Amisha tilted her head in doubt.

"If you want me to forget about the previous incident, this little bribe is not enough." Xia Zhi said.

"Please don't mention that thing again!" The girl wailed.

After much difficulty, I comforted myself with the words "No one will care about this kind of thing, those people will leave here in two days, and I will never have any interaction with her again", and slowly calmed down , temporarily forgetting about it.

But the words just now made her calm down suddenly collapse again.

He will forget what he said, but this person clearly remembers it better than himself!

With tears in her eyes, Amisha stuffed the dessert tray into Xia Zhi's arms, turned around and ran away.

"Student Xia Zhi, don't tease others like this in the future." Kirisu Mafuyu felt a little helpless for the rather bad character shown by the young man.

"Yes yes yes~"

Xia Zhi agreed without sincerity, and returned to the table with a tray full of desserts.

"...Ai Luke, what's wrong with you?"

Seeing that the red-haired girl next to her was staring at the steaming hot soup in her hand, and she didn't know what she was thinking, Lilia asked suspiciously.

At this time in the past, seeing desserts to eat, the girl should have jumped up happily, right?

"Ah? I..." Ai Luke came back to his senses, shook his head quickly and said, "No, nothing!"

"Really?" Lilia was still a little confused, always feeling that the girl's face seemed a little red.

"Then, let's continue the topic just now." Xia Zhi sat down again, "This place is located in a remote area of ​​the empire, surrounded by hills and forests. No outsider will come here."

This can be confirmed from what Amisha said just now.

Kirisu Mafuyu frowned slightly: "You mean..."

"That's right." Xia Zhi nodded and said, "It's not so much that they chose such a deserted place just to wait for a few lost travelers to come and kill them for fun, it's better to say that they came here to take refuge. Be reasonable."

"Refuge?" Lilia asked confusedly, "What are they taking refuge in?"

war?

No, this is not an era of war. With the strength of the Zanguang Church and the brave, few people dare to launch a war against the empire.

Natural disasters?

Probably not, she hadn't heard of any large-scale natural disasters in recent years. At most, there were occasional droughts, but they were far from the level of natural disasters.

So what are they hiding from?

"What else could it be?" Xia Zhi looked at the girl and said.

"..."

Seeing the meaningful eyes he looked at her, Lilia quickly realized.

What they are avoiding is "us".

Chapter 46 Ai Lu doesn't want to be treated like a child

Demagoguery does not require any pupil power, nor does it need to use any curses, as long as there is a sufficiently sinister heart, everyone can do it.And in this respect, human beings are obviously much better than the fallen ghosts.

After dinner, Lilia returned to her room without saying a word, and Kirisu Mafuyu followed because she was worried about her. For a while, only Xia Zhi and Ai Luke were left in the room.

"Want to go for a walk?" He invited the girl.

"Okay, okay..." Ai Luke's cheeks were a little flushed, and he turned his head slightly and said.

Xia Zhi was a little confused, so he didn't know why the girl was blushing.After thinking about it, he finally didn't ask.

Although she is a star god, the girl's temperament is actually similar to that of human girls of the same period. It is normal to have her own little thoughts.

Just like that Amisha, doesn't she have hobbies that she doesn't want others to know about?

Thinking like this, Xia Zhi and Ai Luke went downstairs together. During the period, they deliberately glanced in the direction of the counter, but they didn't see the girl named Amisha, and they didn't know where they went.

"Is it really okay to just leave the store here?" Looking at the empty storefront, Xia Zhi thought to himself.

But if you think about it carefully, there are not many customers here anyway, so it seems that there is really no need to pay too much attention to whether there is anyone visiting the store.

The vermillion color of the setting sun lightly sprinkles on the streets of the village through the gaps in the clouds.

Maybe it's because their faces are too conspicuous to the people here, or maybe it's because Ai Luke is too cute, everyone on the road casts curious eyes on them.

Xia Zhi felt uncomfortable for a while, and began to regret his decision to go out for a walk in his heart.

"Let's go back tomorrow." He thought to himself.

The sub-quest of crusading the Fallen Ghost Clan would definitely not be completed, and he wouldn't have slaughtered his entire village just for the mere 60 dream points.

Fortunately, corresponding to the mechanism of mandatory acceptance after triggering, the side missions of the dream game do not have failure penalties. If you don’t want to do it, you can give up at any time. At most, you will lose some reward points you could have obtained.

Now in his hands, plus the 500 dream points rewarded for completing Lilia's mission, and the rewards obtained from some other scattered side missions completed in the past two months, there are a total of nearly [-] dreams. Point deposits can be said to be quite a huge sum of money.

Next, as long as he can find a way to complete the task of collecting the ancient holy sword, he will earn another 750 points, which is enough for him to realize the idea in his heart.

While making future plans in his heart, Xia Zhi took Ai Luke out of the village and followed the path to a remote forest outside the village.

After getting away from the crowd, Xia Zhi breathed a sigh of relief. Just now he finally experienced the feeling of monkeys in the zoo.

However, Ai Luke didn't seem to be affected in any way, and he was still walking with his head down while kicking the pebbles under his feet, as if he thought it was a very interesting thing.

"Pay attention to the road when walking." Xia Zhi reminded.

"Hmm..." Ai Luke replied absent-mindedly, not knowing what he was thinking.

Seeing that the girl's mind was not here, Xia Zhi didn't bother with her, and began to enjoy the feeling of walking in the forest with the refreshing evening breeze gently brushing her cheeks.

It feels a little nostalgic. I remember the last time I took a leisurely walk in the forest like this. It was the last time.

It was probably three or four years ago. At that time, Xia Zhi was not as obedient as he is now, and he would often quarrel with him. At that time, when he was in a bad mood, he would go for a walk in the park in the city. I didn't go back until it was dark, which made my younger sister very worried. Thinking about it now, it's really shameful.

"Speaking of which, Ai Luke, have you seen your family?" Xia Zhi became curious about those star gods who had never met.

Ai Luke shook his head slightly, and said, "I've never seen it myself, my parents and the others."

"From the moment I was conscious, it was Karma who took care of me, so for me, they are my most important family."

"That's it..." Xia Zhi was a little disappointed. He really wanted to know what kind of mood those star gods who created this world had when they created the special race of human beings.

However, Ai Luke seemed to have misunderstood his meaning, and hurriedly held his hand and said in a panic, "Xia, Xia Zhi, you are also my most important family member!"

"Thank you so much."

All of a sudden, I was provided with the same level of treatment as a god from a human being.

Xia Zhi stroked the girl's small head, thinking in her heart.

"What a perfunctory answer." Ai Luke puffed up his cheeks, stared at him and said, "Did you treat me like a child?"

From the outside, it's hard to see you as an adult, isn't it?Xia Zhi thought to himself.

Seeing that he didn't answer, as if he had acquiesced, Ai Luke became even more angry, let go of Xia Zhi's hand, and walked ahead angrily.

Unknowingly, the sky has gradually darkened.

Seeing that the clear and cloudless night sky began to be covered with stars that seemed to be falling down, Xia Zhi felt that it was time to go back.

"ah!"

On the dark night road, I don't know whether it was because I was looking up at the starry sky or because I was tired from walking for too long. Ai Luke tripped over a stone and almost fell to the ground.

This is no wonder, after all, what the girl is using now is not her original body of a star god, but just the body of an ordinary human girl. It is normal for her to feel strenuous after walking for such a long distance at once.

"Do you want me to carry you?" Xia Zhi suggested.

The road around here is a bit bumpy, and with the girl's current state, it is indeed easy to fall down.

"Huh? That...but..."

The girl was a little hesitant, with an ambiguous attitude.

Xia Zhi didn't care so much, imitating Mafuyu Kirisu's gesture of hugging "self" before, reaching out to hug Ai Luke from the ground.

"Ah!" The girl let out a small scream again, but she didn't intend to struggle, she seemed to be simply taken aback.

"When you encounter difficulties, you must know how to seek help from others. I can't guarantee others, but if you are Ai Luke, there will definitely be many people willing to help you."

After thinking about it, Xia Zhi added another sentence: "It includes me too."

After all, she is such a lovely girl, who would have the heart to refuse her request.

After waiting for a while, the girl didn't reply, Xia Zhi looked down suspiciously.

The girl in her arms lost her words, stopped breathing, blushed, blinked her eyes, she didn't know what she was thinking, but she didn't seem particularly annoying, Xia Zhi felt relieved , continue to move forward.

"Hey, summer solstice."

After a while, Ai Luke in his arms suddenly spoke.

"What's wrong?" Xia Zhi asked.

"From this angle, you can see the starry sky," the girl said.

Isn't this a matter of course?Xia Zhi thought to himself.

"Xia Zhi once asked me, what is the purpose of living, right?" The girl continued to ask.

"Do you still remember?" Xia Zhi was a little surprised, he thought that the girl had long forgotten about such a casual question.

"After all, you said a lot of difficult things back then." Ai Luke looked at the starry sky and said, "But now, I seem to understand a little bit."

"Really? That's good." Xia Zhi nodded in relief.

After going through many things and seeing many stories, the girl is no longer a blank sheet of paper as before, but has begun to think of her own, which makes Xia Zhi very happy, at least it proves that his original approach is effective of.

"What kind of person does Xia Zhi want me to be?" The girl suddenly asked.
