Die, princess, the devil is mine!

Chapter 3 Eight-Year-Old Yuli
Yuli, a little civilian girl with only a first name but no last name, is a very well-known NPC in the Novice Village of the Miracle World.

The reason for her fame is not because of how many novice tasks she has to take, but simply because the game officials designed this character to be so likable.

After all, who wouldn't like a little Lolita who has a lively personality, a healing smile, jumps around all day but isn't a bear at all, and never grows up?

When Miracles was first released, Yuli's official age was seven. On the third anniversary of Miracles, all major NPCs in the game underwent minor adjustments, but little Yuli in the Novice Village was still seven years old. Until the tenth anniversary of Miracles, after the last chapter was updated, someone quietly returned to the Novice Village to visit little Yuli and found that she was still as cute as she was seven or eight years old.

Of course, the most important thing is that little Yuli is one of the few NPCs that can interact with all players. From every player's perspective, they or they can play with little Yuli all day long and enjoy her laughter. What's more, she is also a particularly sensible and considerate child. There are often rumors that depressed players have been cured by little Yuli.

Lin En also needed the company of little Yuli in the process of climbing to the top of the miracle world. It is said that the strong are destined to be lonely, but with the lovely little Yuli accompanying him to play for a day from time to time, Lin En also felt a touch of warmth in the cold game world.

"Little Yuli...don't you remember Brother Lin? We've been good friends for ten years."

Lin En's hand that was handing over the candy froze in mid-air, and a look of surprise appeared on his face. After all, it was the official setting that little Yuli would respond to every player. Even after the final chapter was updated, there were no changes in this regard. Then why was this extremely familiar little Yuli in front of him scratching her head and looking at him in confusion?

"But big brother, little Yuli is only eight years old this year. How could she have known you for ten years?"

Little Yuli scratched her little head in confusion. She couldn't understand what strange words the strange big brother in front of her was saying to her. She was only eight years old and wasn't even in her mother's belly ten years ago. How could she possibly know this strange brother?

"Eight? Aren't you seven?"

Now it was Lin En's turn to be surprised. Regarding the settings of little Yuli, the game officials had not made any changes in the past ten years. Other NPCs would grow older as the game progressed, but little Yuli would not. It could be said that the NPCs were constantly changing, but the little Loli remained the same. How come the officials had modified the data while he was dizzy for a while?

"Little Yuli was seven years old when the biggest devil in the world died, but now she's already eight."

Although little Yuli is not very old, she has been very smart since she was a child, and she remembers everything about herself very clearly.

She remembers it particularly vividly today a year ago. After all, it was on that day that her village was attacked by demons, and all the villagers died except her who was out playing. Although she had no parents, the experience of losing all the familiar people was still a major blow to the naive little Yuli.

If she hadn't met the angelic sister Xia in the shelter, she might have been immersed in sadness for a long time.

"The biggest, biggest devil? He's been dead for a year?"

Little Yuli's words were clear and logical, and she was not a lying kid, so Lin En naturally had no doubts about what she said.

But hadn't he just killed the Demon Dragon King? Its massive dragon corpse was still there... Holy shit! Where was the corpse of such a huge demon dragon!?

Lin En looked back and saw the people of all races looking at him in shock under the World Tree. He kept mumbling for a long time, but although he remained calm on the surface, he had already started swearing in his heart.

After all, the place where the dragon corpse should have fallen was empty except for the crowded crowd of people, and there was not even a piece of dragon scale. It did not look like a place that had just experienced a century-long war in which tens of millions of players participated.

"That big brother... is he an angel? Why does he have wings?" The crowd in the distance was stunned for a while, and finally a child pointed at Lin En with folded pure white wings and asked their parents.

But how could those ordinary people who came to make a wish under the World Tree understand Lin En’s sudden move? What else could they say except “WTF”?
That was the appearance of the game costume "Angel's Love". In fact, what made him fly down was the extremely pure fighting spirit transformed into wings. This is a common skill for players above level 600, and there is nothing worth bragging about.

As for why he didn't just fly down, but had to activate the costume effects...

If the fashion item doesn't show up, then I bought it for nothing, right?

"Mom, mom, that big brother's wings are so beautiful, can I touch them?"

At this time, another child was pulling his mother, his eyes revealing his curiosity about beautiful things. However, as soon as he finished speaking, he was pulled aside by his mother, leaving him no chance to realize his wish.

What a joke... He is a powerful being who fell from the sky, and he might even be an angel who descended on the God-blessed Continent. Who would be so bored as to hang around in front of an angel or a big shot who is suspected to be a saint? Do you think your life is getting better and you want to add some new challenges?

Not only the mother thought so, but all people of all races were subconsciously staying away from Lin En. Although the strong men of the Allied Forces of the God-Blessed Continent usually did not oppress the people, no one knew whether this strong man had a good or bad temper. Especially looking at his temperament, he was very much like an aristocrat who always had bad people in the group, which made everyone have to be cautious.

"Yes, yes, that one... I think it was called the Demon Dragon King. It's been dead for a year now. The adults took away its body. Everyone said that the nobles divided it up and ate it."

Little Yuli's innocent words woke Lin En, whose thoughts were wandering. He then observed little Yuli more carefully. Although there would not be much change in the appearance of children aged seven and eight, children are in the period of growth. With Lin En's familiarity with little Yuli, if he looked closely, he could indeed find that she was a little taller than before.

"A year... Is it a version change, or am I confused? No, it might be that I, as a user of Connect, have been working all night for too long. I need to log off and take a break."

Lin En frowned and shook his head, trying to wake himself up, but how could he cheer up in the game without using stamina potions? Without thinking much, Lin En decided to quit the game and take a rest.

Although virtual games can simulate light sleep, current technology cannot directly replace sleep, the universal way for humans to restore their spirits. If you have been playing for too long, you still need to log off and take a rest.

"exit the game."

In front of little Yuli and the unknown elf NPC, Lin En silently recited the four-word mantra.

And then... nothing happened.

"A plant! It's malfunctioning again. I always have to manually exit it from time to time. It's really... Wait, where is my system panel!?"

This time, Lin En still muttered the first half of the sentence in his heart, but he couldn't help but shout out the second half in shock.
