My two-dimensional resident

Upon hearing that Lin Tian's apples cost five kilograms of gold, Reigen Arataka immediately flew into a rage. The money he earned from selling apples last time, converted into gold, was only about two kilograms. It seemed he had sold the apples far too cheaply.

"Expensive?! Not expensive at all. I sell apples to other worlds starting at six kilograms. Reigen, you know how precious apples are. Five kilograms a piece is already cheap enough. Think about it, your target customers are superpowered individuals, and these people are not short of money. Remember, you are running a monopoly business. In your world, only you can sell apples. If you sell them cheaply, can you live with yourself?"

Seeing that Reigen Shinryu's expression was becoming anxious, Lin Tian began to raise his price on the spot.

Anyway, he didn't know that he was only worth two kilograms in the Inuyasha world. The price he set was entirely up to Lin Tian.

"That's still too expensive. Island Master Lin Tian, ​​look at me helping you persuade, no! Heal Shinji Ikari. Can you give me a discount? Next time... no, in the future, whoever you need me to treat, I'll come over from home immediately."

An apple weighing five kilograms of gold is a sum that Reigen Arataka, currently penniless, simply cannot afford. Therefore, he decides to appeal to Lin Tian's emotions, hoping Lin Tian will lower the price further.

A strong gust of wind swept in, causing the dark clouds in the sky to obscure the scorching sun and making the surrounding atmosphere heavy.

"Hmm... how about this? Seeing how eager you are to help me, I'll lower the price further, 4800 grams per piece."

Chapter 271 All the Glory Belongs to Lelouch

"4800? That's a bit too much. I don't have that much money right now. How about 4000?"

Reigen Arataka wiped the sweat from his face, continuing to feign a pitiful state, hoping to gain Lin Tian's sympathy and drive down the price of apples.

"I didn't take your money right away. You can pay me back the money you're owed after you've made some. But don't even think about not paying me back. I can bring people to your house to collect the debt. At that time, it won't just be a matter of paying for the goods. You'll also have to compensate me with an item equivalent to the value of the miles."

Lin Tian knew that Reigen Shinryu didn't have much money on him right now and was afraid that he might suddenly decide not to sell the apples because the price was too high. So he told him at the beginning that he could take the goods first and pay later. Of course, to prevent him from taking the apples and running away without paying, Lin Tian decided to threaten him a little, telling him that he could go to his world and collect the debt from him.

"Payment after payment? Island Master Lin, you're too kind! 4800 grams of gold. That's fine, that's fine."

The dark clouds in the sky drifted away from the adorable rabbit island as the sea breeze blew, and the bright, scorching sunlight shone on Reigen Arataka once again.

When he heard Lin Tian allow him to sell the apples first or settle the bill, the worry on his face instantly vanished. Ignoring Lin Tian's exorbitant price, he quickly agreed to Lin Tian's terms, afraid of missing such a golden opportunity if he hesitated even a second longer.

4800 grams of gold, let's go with 4800. Anyway, it's pay after delivery, he has plenty of time to promote and hype it up.

As for whether the apple would be stolen by other espers, Reigen Arataka said it wouldn't be a big problem. His apprentice, Shigeo Kageyama, is currently the most powerful esper.

What? Child labor?

No, no, no, Shigeo Kageyama is his disciple. How can having a disciple help his master be considered an employment relationship?

At worst, I'll just give Mob a few thousand more yen each month...

At this point, Reigen Arataka had already begun to fantasize about becoming rich by selling apples, driving luxury cars, buying luxury yachts, marrying a beautiful and wealthy woman, and reaching the pinnacle of life.

"Mr. Reigen? Mr. Reigen?"

"Ah! Island Master Lin Tian, ​​for the first transaction, may I take back 100 apples first?"

Lin Tian's shout instantly snapped Reigen Arataka out of his pleasant fantasy. He looked at Lin Tian in confusion, wondering why he had called him. Was he going to give him an apple right now? He quickly grinned at Lin Tian.

Point Guard Here

"No rush, I just wanted to remind you to watch your head... 4, 3, 2, 1"

boom!

"what!"

Seeing Lin Tian look up at the sky and begin counting down, Reigen Arataka felt a vague unease. As the sunlight on his forehead was blocked by something, he quickly looked up. But it was too late; a huge figure crashed down.

Reigen Arataka had no time to dodge. The moment the figure made contact with him, he felt as if he had entered a magnificent golden world. As the sun in that world disappeared, he fell into a coma.

"Oh ho, finally I'm not the only one on the island to be knocked unconscious by a newbie. Mr. Reigen, I'm sorry, I already warned you, but you didn't react in time, so you can't blame me."

Looking at Reigen Arataka, who had been knocked unconscious by a girl with flowing long hair and a hot figure, Lin Tian recalled the scene when he was knocked unconscious by Lenalee and the others.

When Lin Tian couldn't wake Reigen Arataka from his hallucination, he did consider rushing over and pushing him away, but then he thought that he might get hit by the falling object, so he gave up the idea.

Anyway, no one will die on the adorable Rabbit Island; at most, they'll just be unconscious for half an hour. So it's perfectly reasonable for Reigen Arataka, a resident of the island, to help him welcome the newcomer.

Even if a newcomer were to appear out of nowhere, and even if she were a stunning beauty, Lin Tian would not suffer such a heavy blow.

"This girl is so tall. Hmm... there's an ominous sign about her; she seems to be someone important. Her long, deep pink hair... I feel like I've seen her in some anime..."

After silently mourning for Reigen Arataka for a second, Lin Tian approached the two unconscious figures. He crouched down, carefully observing the newcomer. He noticed she was about 170cm tall, wearing a low-cut princess dress, and had unusually dark pink hair. He then reached out and moved her off Reigen Arataka's body to examine her face.

"Isn't this Euphemia Li Britannia, the third princess of the Britannian Empire from Code Geass? How did she end up on the island?"

After seeing the other person's face clearly, Lin Tian immediately recognized which anime character the other person was from.

Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion! This is an anime released in 06, which was hailed as a masterpiece by many anime fans at the time.

The protagonist, Lelouch, is the eleventh prince of the Britannian Empire, also known as the Holy Britannian Empire. At the age of nine, he witnessed his mother's murder and his sister's blindness and paralysis, leading to a conflict with his father, the emperor. This resulted in him being sent to District 9 as a hostage.

Therefore, the protagonist Lelouch begins to hate the Britannian Empire and his people. He also vows to destroy the entire empire, avenge his mother, and create a peaceful and tranquil home for his sister.

At the age of 17, he encountered a witch and was fortunate enough to gain a power called Geass. From then on, Lelouch could command absolute obedience. With this power, he began to form the "Black Knights" in the 11th District to rebel against the Empire...

The girl before Lin Tian, ​​named Euphemia Li Britannia, was Lelouch's third older sister. She was innocent, naive, and warm-hearted, the kind of person who pursued idealism. She was deeply dissatisfied with and heartbroken by her empire's racial segregation policies.

After arriving in District 11, Euphemia wanted to create a special district where Britannian citizens and District 11 residents could coexist peacefully. However, during the district's founding ceremony, due to the protagonist Lelouch's powers going berserk, she lost control and committed a horrific massacre against the District 11 residents present.

In order to stop his sister's killing spree, Lelouch was forced to kill her, and ultimately died on her warship.

Well, Euphemia's death left countless people feeling resentful and wishing they could have gone in and killed Lelouch themselves. Even Lin Tian, ​​who was once a fan of Lelouch, a man of high intelligence and lofty dreams, turned against him.

"Sigh... an idealistic and naive princess. Won't she cause me trouble? What's there to be afraid of... Aside from the amazing GEASS power, Code Geass is just a technological world, nothing to worry about. Once she wakes up, let her spend the rest of her life peacefully on the island."

Speaking of the Britannian Empire, isn't it just Great Britain...? There should be legends about Artoria, right? Maybe Euphemia is even a descendant of Artoria. I suddenly really want to see Euphemia calling Artoria her ancestor... haha.

Chapter 272 Kanae the Butterfly Who Wants to Confess Her Feelings

"Island Master Lin Tian, ​​what happened? Why is Mr. Linghuan lying here? And who is this girl?"

Just as Lin Tian was squatting in front of Euphilia, waiting for her to wake up, Kanae, who had brought a batch of apples into Lin Tian's room, came to his side. Seeing that the two of them were still unconscious, Kanae asked with a mixture of doubt and anxiety.

'Just now, when she left, Reigen Arataka was perfectly fine, chatting and laughing with his two younger sisters. How could he have collapsed on the ground in less than half an hour? And this girl... why is she so big?? Lin Tian seems to have a strong liking for him... could he like big ones? But I'm big too... why doesn't he feel anything for me...'

A beautiful butterfly landed on a weed next to Kanae Butterfly. Before it could even sip the nectar from the small yellow flower on the weed, a large net covered it.

"Oh...it's a swallowtail butterfly. Too bad the museum already has one, I'll just release it..."

Looking at the swallowtail butterfly in his hand, Binchotan said with some disappointment. Then, he gently released his index finger, which was holding the butterfly's wings, and released this very ordinary swallowtail butterfly back into the wild.

'Butterfly...isn't that me...'

Noticing the swallowtail butterfly that Binchotan had released, Kanae felt like she was that butterfly, an unwanted one...

"Thank you for your hard work. Reigen Arataka is alright, he's just unconscious. He'll wake up soon. This girl is a newcomer to the island, her name is Euphemia Li Britannia."

Lin Tian, ​​whose gaze was fixed on Euphemia, didn't notice the silent look in Kanae's eyes beside him. He sensed that the two of them wouldn't wake up anytime soon, so he took out a parasol from his spatial backpack and placed it between them to shield them from the direct sunlight.

Then he turned and glanced at the apple-carrying team. Seeing that each of their foreheads was covered in sweat, he felt a pang of sympathy and said...

“Let’s take a break. We can carry all the remaining apples back in two more trips. It’s still early, don’t overexert yourself. Charcoal, get the parasol, wooden table, and chairs. Let’s have afternoon tea. It’ll also be good time to wait for these two to wake up.”

Anyway, there weren't many apples left, and they still had to wait for the newcomers to wake up. So Lin Tian decided to let everyone rest for a while.

"Okay, brother. Kanao-neechan, please help me."

Upon receiving Lin Tian's order, Binchotan quickly put away the insect net in his hand, then took Kanao's small hand beside him and asked her to help him prepare the venue for today's afternoon tea.

"Let me help too." Kanae felt sorry for the two little girls as they moved the table and chairs, so she went over to help Binchotan set up the table.

With Kanae joining them, the three of them—one adult and two children—quickly set up a makeshift afternoon tea camp with parasols to shield them from the sun in the open space. The four sat around a round wooden table, and Kanae first poured Lin Tian a cup of fragrant black tea, then prepared a cup of milk tea for each of the two little girls, while she herself drank green tea that she had brought from her hometown.

They were currently positioned with the orchard's entrance to the east and an inland lake of about 100 square meters to the north. It was late April on the adorable Rabbit Island, and the variety of insects on the island had increased. Several dragonflies flitting about the lake caught the attention of Binchotan and Kanao. After taking a few sips of their milk tea, they told Lin Tian they wanted to catch some dragonflies.

Seeing that Kanao had become much more lively and cheerful after spending time with Binchotan, Lin Tian didn't want to ask them to rest more and save their energy. In order not to spoil their fun, he nodded and agreed to let them go catch dragonflies.

"Thank you, Kanae. I heard from Tan-tan that you took care of her like a younger sister while I was away. If I had come back a few days later, I wouldn't have been as important to her as you, haha."

Lin Tian gently placed the white porcelain teacup on the table and looked at Kanae with a smile, thanking her for taking care of Binchotan these past few days.

"You're too kind, Island Master Lin Tian. It's all I should do. We agreed that I would be your maid. It's only natural that I help you take care of Sister Binchotan..."

Kanae parted her two rosy and alluring lips slightly, took a small sip of green tea, and revealed a warmth on her pure and beautiful face that could melt glaciers.

"Ahem, stop. Let's not talk about the maid anymore. You know I live in modern society, and there's no such thing as a maid or mistress in that world. So I don't want you to lower yourself to become my maid just to repay the kindness of me saving you. As long as you live happily on the island, that's the greatest support and help you can give me."

Upon hearing the word "maid," Lin Tian's mind immediately recalled the ripples in the hot spring bath. He felt a little flustered, but still calmly told Kanae not to mention it again.

A cool breeze swept over the two of them, causing Kanae's long, flowing hair to sway in the air like an elf. But as the owner of this "elf," Kanae wasn't happy after hearing Lin Tian's words; instead, she felt a pang of disappointment.

After being rescued by Lin Tian, ​​she fell in love with him. However, because she was somewhat introverted and Lin Tian already had a girlfriend, she had to bury these feelings deep in her heart.

Lin Tian wanted to become his maid, and it was her younger sister, Shinobu Kocho, who saw through her thoughts and didn't want her older sister to be left alone in the Demon Slayer world suffering from lovesickness every day, so she suggested that she become Lin Tian's maid.

Only in this way could she stay by Lin Tian's side, silently taking care of him and showing him concern.

"Island Master Lin Tian..." As the breeze weakened, her flowing hair, which had been dancing in the air, gradually fell onto her shoulders, and Kanae suddenly mustered her courage.

"What? Oh, Euphemia seems to be waking up."

Just as Kanae was about to ask the man she had fallen for for the first time to say what she had kept hidden in her heart for so long, Lin Tian suddenly stood up and walked toward the two unconscious people.

"Hey..."

She had clearly decided to confess her feelings, but fate didn't give her the chance. Her forlorn eyes gazed at Lin Tian's retreating figure. Kanae sighed softly, composed herself, and made sure nothing had happened. Then she stood up and walked towards the awakened Euphemia.

"You're awake... How are you feeling?"

Seeing Euphemia open her purple, bright eyes and stare blankly at the parasol above her head, Lin Tian bent down, reached out his hand, and asked her warmly.

"Where am I? Heaven or hell...?"

Euphemia reached out and grasped Lin Tian's large hand, using his strength to stand up. She straightened her disheveled, low-cut neckline to prevent any accidental exposure. Then, with a hint of doubt, she softly asked Lin Tian.

Chapter 273 Euphemia's Death

As soon as she finished speaking, Euphemia seemed to realize that she had been somewhat impolite. Without waiting for Lin Tian's response, she took two steps back, bowed to him, and performed a noble greeting. She then introduced herself.

"I am Euphemia Li Britannia, the third princess of the Britannian Empire. Are you my guiding angel?"

During the brief moment of bowing, Euphemia had already observed the surrounding environment. The beautiful scenery dispelled her idea that this was hell, so she changed her mind and asked Lin Tian if he was the angel who would lead her into heaven.

"Hello, I'm not an angel, and this isn't heaven or hell. This is the adorable Rabbit Island. I'm the island's owner."

Lin Tian smiled and shook his head, explaining to her that this wasn't the realm where souls go after death. Lin Tian was already used to these newcomers to the adorable Rabbit Island after their deaths.

Kikyo, Neji Hyuga, Shinobu Kocho, and Chelsea—these four residents all arrived on the island after their deaths. Lin Tian was already adept at explaining to such people that this wasn't paradise, but rather that they had been reborn on this island. So, when Euphemia looked puzzled, he began to explain.

"You can think of this place as another world. And after your death, you were chosen by this world to be resurrected. This is fate's arrangement, and also this world's gift to you."
