Lu Mingfei is transforming into the final boss.

Chapter 104 Don't Make Progress Secretly

For Xia Mi, she was in a dangerous situation that she could not resist, both in terms of power and the overall situation.

The four monarchs are said to be able to reincarnate indefinitely, even if their physical bodies are destroyed, their souls can be reincarnated.

But that's a lie; only their gods can be reborn indefinitely.

The great Emperor Nidhogg.

The soul is immortal; even if the body is destroyed, its resilient soul will be restored to its original form over time.

This is his unchanging nature, the source of his divinity. There is nothing in the world that is eternal and indestructible; if there were, it would definitely be a god.

Lu Mingfei himself is the source of the word "god".

An eternal king who has a strong bond with this planet and controls all things in the universe.

If they die before they can lay their cocoons, it means they are dead forever.

"I didn't mean to, it's all Xia Mi's fault for laying a cocoon. The smell is so strong, it's like street food skewers. I can't help but smell it."

Lu Mingfei smiled, and Xia Mi couldn't tell whether she was serious or just teasing her.

But this way of describing him is like saying Chu Zihang is some kind of hot commodity. Although she does think Chu Zihang is good, it's not that kind of good.

"I surrender."

Xia Mi raised her hands. It was pointless to argue with Lu Mingfei. She couldn't compete with Lu Mingfei in terms of knowledge or rhetoric. She couldn't beat her in a fight or an argument, so what could she do?

Perhaps the only good thing is that Lu Mingfei isn't really interested in killing her.

"Mmm-hmm-hmm."

Lu Mingfei raised her proud head and patted her hands gently.

A ripple, like the waves of water after an object has been thrown into it, swept past, causing the surrounding scenery to fade and then be recolored.

They returned to their original world, to the bustling streets.

Those people seemed to think that nothing had changed, completely ignoring the two women's location as if they were always there.

"Nibelungen? That doesn't seem quite right either."

"It's a combination of Nibelungen and the barrier. Nibelungen itself is too enormous. If we want to ensure precision, strength, and range, the casting process would become exceptionally long, so—"

"Okay, okay, I don't understand."

Xia Mi raised her hands again. This academic paper-like way of lecturing was giving her a headache. Even after becoming an academic researcher, the tyrannical Black Emperor was still as strange as ever, making it impossible for people to understand Xiu's thought process. He could only sit alone on the throne of the icy sea, quietly watching everything in a vantage point.

However, what Lu Mingfei didn't say was that the process of casting the spell was too long for her, but if you weren't someone of her level, you would hardly even be able to see her set up the altar and perform the ritual.

This is a difference in strength, not a matter of the method of application.

"Did you have dinner?"

"Is the topic jumping a bit too fast? — Not yet."

"Hmm, shall we go out for dinner together? I know a great restaurant."

"————?"

Even the Black Emperor thinks this restaurant is good? That's certainly intriguing. It would be a lie for Xia Mi to say she's not curious.

After all, in the distant past, this aloof emperor had never shown any material desires.

"Then... I'll take my leave."

The quirky girl was suppressed into a well-behaved girl in front of Lu Mingfei, which may be due to some kind of special bloodline suppression.

She and Lu Mingfei walked side by side down the street, heading towards the most crowded place.

This wasn't because she was overconfident and thought she was on the same level as Lu Mingfei; in fact, she was quite afraid of Lu Mingfei now.

To passersby, they appeared to be a confident and proud older sister and a somewhat timid and not very lively younger sister.

It's truly a visually appealing combination, like characters from an anime come to life.

If Xia Mi backs away, Lu Mingfei will also slow down, and it will be so subtle that the two of them will be in sync without anyone noticing. This might be a kind of showing off, but Xia Mi dares not say anything.

However, she was genuinely curious about what exactly could have won over the Black Emperor.

"—This is the restaurant you were talking about?"

It's a very ordinary Western restaurant, just like the street-side steakhouses that you can find everywhere a decade or two later. The taste isn't much different; the only difference might be that it's not as popular now.

"Otherwise, what do you think it would be? A fancy hotel meal? Shouldn't we be tired of that by now?"

Is she naturally dark-skinned?

They might say some really hurtful things with a straight face and a friendly expression, or they might dig a pit for people to fall into.

Xia Mi couldn't help but think to herself.

For some reason, she really wanted to apply all the qualities of beautiful girls from anime and manga to Lu Mingfei, perhaps because Lu Mingfei is a beautiful girl.

And thinking about it this way, tyrannical monarchs are actually queen-like figures — no no no no, you can't think like that, it's too terrifying, Xia Mi, you're not allowed to keep thinking like that!

"What would you like to eat?"

"What to eat—oh, what to eat—let me see."

"Don't worry about me, order whatever you want to eat."

"Hello, you two, are you sure you can finish all this?"

The woman, who was also a waitress, cashier, and proprietress, looked at Lu Mingfei and Xia Mi.

In these small shops, husband-and-wife shops are the most common.

The portion that Lu Mingfei and Xia Mi ordered was roughly the standard portion for three adult men.

It's not that I'm questioning their spending power. After all, Lu Mingfei doesn't look poor at all. Her natural arrogance and confidence would lead anyone with a bit of knowledge to believe that she's a young lady from a wealthy family. As for the one who looks a bit weak, that's probably her younger sister.

Both of them looked quite slender, not like they could eat a lot.

"It's okay, just order this. You can take the leftovers home if you can't finish them."

Lu Mingfei wiped the table with a napkin and spoke in a natural tone.

"Okay, sure."

The proprietress ticked a box on the brochure, and the word "packing" sounded very natural coming from this girl's mouth.

Sure enough, this world is all about looks. These two girls are probably the most beautiful people she has ever seen in her life, even more beautiful than idols and celebrities on TV.

"You even knew how to pack it?"

Xia Mi's question made the proprietress even more certain of their status as young ladies.

The first thing she says is such a thing; she really is a rich girl.

"You're making a fuss over nothing. Is that so strange?"

Lu Mingfei said calmly.
