Chapter 21: Space Police? Space Refugees

As is well known, the Crab Nebula is a supernova remnant with a diameter of about 11 light-years. The only thing in it that can be called a planet is a neutron star that rotates 30 times per second.

There's no way life could possibly grow on a planet like that. Even Superman would have his brains shaken up in less than half an hour standing on it...

The girl initially claimed to be from the Crab Nebula to test Lilith. If Lilith had no doubts about this and could forcefully explain it away with the excuse of a lack of common sense, then Lilith's claim to be from the Crab Nebula would be enough to prove that she had a problem.

In this world, anything lacking common sense, possessing inhuman characteristics, and exhibiting unfamiliarity with modern society is most likely a demon from the depths of the earth.

Having deduced that Lilith was most likely a demon, the girl immediately became alert. After preparing for battle, she warned:

"Don't try to deceive me. I have a hundred ways to deal with demons, so just tell me the whole story to avoid suffering in vain."

Hearing this, Lilith sighed helplessly. She glanced at the girl who was now airborne and looking down at her. She could easily sense that the energy level in her body was rapidly increasing, indicating that she was about to unleash some kind of extremely powerful attack.

In this situation, even if Lilith wanted to explain, she wouldn't know how. She lacked common sense about this world, and if she insisted on explaining, it might only confirm her treachery.

To solve this problem, Lilith came up with two solutions. One was to kill the girl in front of her, but of course, this was the worst possible option.

As for the second point? It's about using the power of order to distort common sense, just like how Lilith forced her reincarnated teammates to treat her as an ordinary person during the zombie apocalypse.

This is the most convenient and safest method.

Without hesitation, Lilith activated her power of order, distorting common sense. The girl who had initially shown hostility towards Lilith briefly lost focus in her eyes before they returned to focus.

In that moment of distraction, the girl seemed to suddenly realize something, and her sharp eyes instantly cleared:

"I think I've been too sensitive lately... The universe is so vast, anything is possible, the chances of life arising in the Crab Nebula are not zero..."

I'm sorry, I lied to you. I'm not actually from there.

The girl scratched her head sheepishly and gave an embarrassed smile. Twisted by common sense, she believed the lie that Lilith came from the Crab Nebula, no matter how absurd it was. She just believed it and found reasons to justify it.

This should have been a happy ending, with Lilith's suspicions cleared up and no one injured, but Lilith still felt something was off.

The girl in front of me, who was just a moment ago full of hostility, has undergone a complete 180-degree change in attitude under the power of the distortion of common sense.

This familiar feeling reminded Lilith of that unsettling scene when, in the Void, the Wither was also hostile towards Steve, but under the pink wooden stick, she instantly became Steve's little wife.

That's why Lilith is so terrified of Steve. But if you think about it carefully, what's the difference between what Lilith is doing now and what Steve is doing?

Forcibly changing someone's will is, at its mildest, a selfish and immoral act; at its worst, it is a grave desecration of free will.

[I don't want to become like Steve. From now on, I'd better avoid doing things that distort common sense...]

With that thought in mind, Lilith silently made up her mind, and then awkwardly began to communicate with the girl in front of her...

During their conversation, Lilith learned that the girl's name was Adeline and that she came from a planet called Proxima Centauri in the Centaurus constellation. Because of the harsh environment of Proxima Centauri, the people of Proxima Centauri evolved a very special biofield.

Initially, this level of biofield only allowed them to live normally on Proxima Centauri. It was only after the Proxima Centauri civilization ventured into space that they realized the power of this biofield.

Invulnerability to blades and bullets, immunity to water and fire, flight... these abilities are undoubtedly superpowers for Earthlings, but for Proxima Centauri, they are the factory settings of every Proxima Centauri.

The greater the ability, the larger the territory.

Possessing such abilities, the Proxima Centauri civilization transformed into cosmic police after leaving Proxima Centauri, spreading universal morality everywhere. However, this behavior angered the gods, who then destroyed Proxima Centauri.

And just like that, the Proxima Centauri who were working as cosmic police suddenly became cosmic refugees, and Adeline was one of them...

Upon receiving this news, Lilith was deeply shocked. She was not shocked by the gods, but by the fact that Adeline had possessed such abilities since birth.

"I guess it truly lives up to its name as the Seven Star World? This guy actually once owned an entire planet..."

Lilith sighed and completely ignored the information about the gods.

In His eyes, even gods are not worthy of His attention. After all, He is the supreme god. As long as it is not the creator god, any god that comes must step aside.

After gaining Adeline's trust by twisting common sense, Lilith steered the conversation to serious matters, stating bluntly:

"Adeline, have you ever heard of a Star Destroyer-class Superman?"

"A Star Destroyer-class Superman?"

Adeline repeated the sentence, then searched her mind for information about Star Destroyer-class Superman. However, even after searching through all her memories, she found no information about Star Destroyer-class Superman.

Adler shook his head, full of apology:

"Sorry, I've never heard of it."

"Is that so..."

Lilith wasn't surprised by this answer; after all, it was a main quest in the Seven Star World, and finding the person right away was obviously not ideal.

Adeline, however, was puzzled by Lilith's question:

"So, what are you looking for that Star Destroyer-class Superman for? Did you come to Earth specifically to see him?"

Not getting the information she wanted, Lilith prepared to slip away. When faced with Adeline's questioning, she casually gave a vague answer:

"Yes, I admire him very much."

Unexpectedly, this casual reply excited Adeline:

"Is that so? Do you have any thoughts about becoming a hero? The environment on a neutron star is so harsh, you must be very strong to be born there."

If you become a hero, you might catch the attention of a Star Destroyer-class Superman, and then... he might come looking for you.

"To become a hero?"

Hearing this, Lilith fell into thought. Although she was happy to help when she saw someone in trouble, she never thought of becoming a hero or making helping people her job.

However, Lilith recalled the reactions of those law enforcement officers when they saw Adeline not long ago; they were practically die-hard fans.

...If becoming a hero can build popularity, then wouldn't that provide a way to complete my first side quest? In that case, becoming a hero isn't entirely out of the question...

Thinking of this, Lilith looked at Adeline and nodded reluctantly:

"Is that so? I think I can give it a try..."
