“…You’re really wicked,” Su’er rolled her eyes in annoyance. “So what do we do now? According to what you just said, this deity’s previous outburst and response were all subconscious reactions during a period of suspended animation, right? Should we wake it up?”

"Ah~ that's about right, but before we awaken Him... Miss Monster?" Xin Ke suddenly raised her voice and looked around as she called out.

no response.

Suer waited blankly for a moment, only to find that after Xinke shouted loudly, it wasn't Jibril who appeared, but a prolonged silence. He wondered about it until he saw Xinke's gaze fall on him—and then he understood!

"Jibril?!" Startled, Sull also raised his voice and shouted.

"Alright~~~, Jibril, who has been watching her friend from Abant to the nameless island, is here! Is there something you want to kill? Or do you want to raze some place to the ground?"

This time there was finally a reaction. Just like the first time they met, bright specks of light drifted by, and amidst Xin Ke's cold laughter, Jibril made a grand entrance.

"Haha, it's mainly about this divine essence..."

"Oh! Sur, you've finally given up! Are you going to give me this incredibly precious treasure?!"

"I'm not giving it to you! Didn't you hear it when He reacted before? Listen to me properly!"

Before Suer could finish speaking, Jibril interrupted him with a bright look in her eyes, and retorted irritably to the impatient Skywing.

"Even so, aren't we still practically dead right now?" Jibril had clearly overheard Xin Ke's explanation, and the pink-haired girl shrugged casually as she spoke.

“Yes, so now Xin Ke says she has a way, right?” Su Er chuckled dryly.

"Oh my~, it seems so~", Jibril exclaimed dramatically and pretentiously, covering her mouth and looking at Xin Ke with a fake smile, "I think I heard the weeds calling for me just now? Is there some place where the great Lady Jibril needs to come and save you?"

"Ah~, it's just used as a battery~, it's very simple~, Miss Monster, don't worry about not understanding~," Xin Ke replied with a forced smile. The two women looked at each other and smiled eerily.

"..."

Speechless, Suer really couldn't figure out how these two got along. They argued so fiercely, but when it came to actually working, they never held each other back... What a strange thing.

--------------

"Is it today?"

"It's today, that's right. What's wrong, Mr. Monkey? Do you miss Miss Monster? Or are you feeling uneasy after not seeing her for so long?"

"...Don't be so sarcastic," Su'er said, turning away from the window and looking at Xin Ke, who was sitting at the table leisurely drinking tea. "And aren't you worried at all?"

“This time is different from the past. If Jibril’s calculations are correct, she will fully recover her power today and appear before us in her complete form…” Suer’s voice became somewhat low. “According to her own words, changes in her physical condition will also affect her thought patterns. So aren’t you worried at all that she might change her attitude towards certain things after recovering?”

Yes, after such a long time, today is the day Jibril will precisely restore her strength. What Sue was looking out the window just now was the direction of Avant Heim, the capital of the Skywing race, where Jibril is located at this moment.

This is also the reason why Suer is worried.

For him and Xinke, Jibril's power was far too great, and she knew far too much. If she changed her views on certain things after regaining her power, Suer and the others would have no way to stop her.

"Hmm~, Mr. Monkey actually considered these issues?" Elegantly setting down her teacup, Xin Ke raised an eyebrow in surprise and said, "Seeing how close you and Miss Monster are, I thought you were completely infatuated with her."

"...What do you mean by 'getting addicted'? Can't you be serious for once?" Su Ermu sat down next to Xin Ke with a blank face, picked up his cup of tea and took a sip.

Why does this sound weird?

"It's just the literal meaning, right? Mr. Monkey has fallen in love with that monster... Is there anything hard to understand?" Xin Ke said casually.

Chapter 197 Fragments of Memories

"Huh?" Sur asked, sounding confused.

Rather than worrying about the possible changes in Jibril, he was now more puzzled... puzzled by Xin Ke's inexplicable conclusion.

He even quickly recalled the events in his mind, questioning himself, verifying, and judging whether it was really true—

There is a great deal of curiosity about the other world of Sur.

Magic, swordsmanship, exotic races, and dazzling special effects that seemed to overwhelm the world—all carrying the fantasies of his past life.

Even if they are unable to use magic due to their own limitations, those races that can use magic mostly engage in wars with relatively equal forces among themselves, but... it's still worth watching, right?

He hadn't had the heart to think about these things before because of the hardship of survival, but now that he finally had the opportunity to realize them, how could he resist such a temptation?

This happened over the past two years.

"A wonder? A spectacle?"

Sitting cross-legged on the edge of the cabin's roof, Jibril repeated the word.

"Ah, it's pretty much those very spectacular buildings, uh, landscapes formed by the power of nature in some corner of the world, things that are quite rare or hard to find, uh, like the top of the world's highest mountain... Do you understand what I mean?" Suer tried his best to make his request clearer.

"So, it's something that's worthy of being a collectible, but has to be kept because it's inconvenient to move, right?"

“Ah, yes, yes, that’s it!” Su Er snapped his fingers and said.

Very good, this intelligent Skywing has understood everything.

“No problem!” Jibril nodded readily. “Shall we set off now?”

"Ah, wait a minute, I'll go get the camera I made last time, and... Xin Ke?" Su Er pushed open the door and peeked inside, raising her voice to shout, "Want to go out and play together?"

Xin Ke's tightly closed door opened slightly a crack as it moved slightly without any wind.

"Where to? Will Miss Monster go?"

"There's no specific destination, just some places that look spectacular. As for Jibril... well, she used spatial magic to take us there..." Suer stammered, his words slowing down as he spoke.

boom!

Almost the instant he finished speaking, Xin Ke slammed the door shut, which she had just opened. She didn't reply, but her refusal was quite clear.

"Hehehe, that weed can't rely on my magic, you know?" After watching the show, Jibril leaned down from the roof and said with a strange laugh.

It was as if Mr. Newton had been turned upside down; although she was completely upside down, Jibril's hair was still spreading upwards against gravity.

"Ah, there's nothing I can do..." Suer sighed deeply.

Xinke and Jibril's relationship was not good at all, and it was really too much to ask that proud forest elf to go out and play by relying on the magic of the Skywing race.

"Let's go!" Suer said decisively, no longer dwelling on the issue, after picking up his things.

"Oh~~~"

--------------

cold!

Each breath felt like a forceful effort to prop up my shrunken lungs with a crowbar, and a chill spread from my throat and nose all the way to every capillary.

"How about it? Should we turn the temperature up a bit more?" Jibril looked at Sull, who was shivering and freezing, with a strange expression, and was speechless.

"Hehehe no... no need, da da da do," even though every word he uttered was colliding with each other and his teeth were constantly chattering, Suer still insisted on not raising the temperature surrounding him.

For the sake of convenience, we will omit the incessant clicking sounds that accompanied every word the man spoke.

"Is this the highest point in the world?" Su Er couldn't help but exclaim, taking a deep sniff.

Even though the world has become a post-apocalyptic wasteland due to endless wars, if you stand high enough and have a wide enough view, you can appreciate another kind of beauty—a red sky overhead, as if the endless boundary has disappeared at the farthest end, and everything in sight except the mountain peaks at your feet has become a toy on a chessboard.

Magnificent.

"...Leaving aside kingdoms like Avant built in the sky, this is indeed the highest point extending from the landmass. But is it really appropriate for you to be reminiscing about this now? Seriously, if we don't turn up the temperature, you'll freeze to death here, won't you?" Jibril squinted, a rare moment of speechlessness in her voice. "If I were to take a dead version of you back, that weed would probably fight me to the death, right? Well, I'm not afraid of that, though."

"No need, no need, it'll be ready soon," Su Er said, waving his hand and sniffing the air. "Besides, wouldn't it be a shame to feel warm at such a high place? This is what the world's highest peak should feel like!"

This man has a strange obsession in a strange place.

"Just take a picture of me first!" he said decisively. Although he said nice things, the man still chose to leave a picture and then quickly slip away.

Click.

Run away!

Apart from the divine race, no other race in this world can surpass the Skywing race in terms of spatial manipulation. If placed in a peaceful world, the Skywing race could become everyone's father simply by virtue of this extremely convenient magic.

At the very least, Suer now genuinely feels an urge to bow down to Jibril.

"Ah~, I'm alive~~", he exclaimed deeply. The temperature around him suddenly changed from cold to warm, making Suer feel his skin getting warm.

Forget about hoping for warmth; unless you return to that ruin with its little sun, the word "warmth" is completely foreign to you in the outside world.

So where is this?

"Inside the lair of the demon race~"

"Demon—???"

!!!

The pink-haired little girl spoke in a light, airy voice, showing no sign of nervousness, while in contrast...

All the questions in his mind turned into shock in the blink of an eye, and the fear didn't last long either. Like a chicken with its neck being choked, Suer's eyes were wide open as if they were about to pop out of their sockets, and his lips were pressed tightly together.

He could hear the rustling sound of rocks rubbing against the soil, the slow and heavy breathing, and the hot air rising from beneath his feet.

Chapter 198 A Colorful World

"...It's so ugly."

"That's what demon species look like~. Theoretically speaking, even demon species from the same series are not exactly the same. Their appearance depends solely on the ideas of the fantasy species when they were created."

"The aesthetics of those fantasy species are really too poor, aren't they? From this perspective, the creations of the divine species are more pleasing to the eye."

"Huh? Suer, are you subtly praising me?"
