Why can't humans do it too?

"...No, it's nothing."

Calmly brushing off Xinke's question, Suer poured the water from the wooden basin over Xinke's head. The warm lake water washed away the foam that had formed on her pale golden hair, and the whitish foam flowed along the lake's current toward the outlet.

"Are you lying? Is there something wrong with the shampoo we just produced?"

Having directly exposed Suer's lie, Xin Ke reached out and lightly brushed her hair, then rubbed her fingers together and sniffed.

Nothing seemed amiss; it was the scent of her favorite flowers.

“So I already said there was no problem,” Su’er retorted irritably, her fingers running through Xinke’s hair.

Yes, that's how it's been since then. Every few days, Suer has to force Xinke to take a bath. The exact interval depends on how strong a woman's body odor is. If he forgets or doesn't remind her, Xinke will absolutely not take a bath on her own. Suer even has to do the washing process for her body—but he really doesn't want it to be like this!

It's definitely not a case of getting the benefits and then acting innocent, or being a hypocrite. To be honest, for some reason, Suer had no intention of having any relationship beyond friendship with this forest elf. Although he had indeed fantasized about some inappropriate things, he was very clear about reality.

The reason I'm forced to do this kind of work is simply because—Sul really can't stand it when you've just finished cooking and are about to eat, and suddenly someone who smells terrible rushes in and starts eating without even washing their hands! Just thinking about it makes me want to throw up!

You can't beat her!

Oh, right! That's not all!

After getting to know her better, Suer discovered that this forest elf really disliked wearing clothes! Every time Suer entered her lab, she would see her naked, even though Suer had specially hung her washed clothes on the door.

The worst part is that they never learn their lesson! They absolutely refuse to listen just because you tell them!!

They'd mumble "uh-huh" and "ah-ah" all the time, then laugh and giggle. What's especially outrageous is that they'd also argue their point with completely nonsensical arguments, for example, saying something like:

Clothes will get dirty, and then you have to run to change them—that's completely inefficient! And nothing in this world is beautiful if it's inefficient!

So, thinking about it this way, wouldn't it have been better if I had just not worn any clothes from the beginning?!

[This is genius-level—no, wait, since genius equals me, and I equal genius, so it must be my genius mind that discovered this secret that ordinary people would never discover!]

They are utterly shameless, spouting nothing but fallacies.

It's hard to imagine that Xin Ke said such a thing with such pride and smugness, and even wiggled her butt after she finished speaking.

From that moment on, Xin Ke's image as a handsome, murderous, and superior person disappeared from Su Er's mind. If he had to describe her again, all that would be left is the word "salted fish".

Where does this woman get the face to claim to be the embodiment of beauty, the standard of beauty?

Suer often fell into doubt about life, unable to find a solution.

Given this situation, how could he possibly be on guard?

There was no development that crossed the line, nor did he dare to develop anything that went too far. He suffered from this pain, and even before washing the dirt off Xin Ke's body, he had to secretly go to a distant part of the city and take a quick shot... I'm sorry, it's a little embarrassing to talk about this.

Although her personal hygiene habits were absolutely terrible, Xin Ke's figure was undoubtedly quite in line with Su Er's aesthetic standards. All I can say is... he really had a tough time.

sigh.

Xinke was indeed very intelligent, but Suer was absolutely certain that Kenas must have forgotten some steps when creating her. This forest elf only had eyes for the goal she cared about, and ignored everything else.

For example, right now, while Suer was still cleaning her hair, Xinke stared blankly up at the ceiling, muttering terms that Suer couldn't understand at all, once again immersed in her experiment.

Not only when taking a bath, but even when eating, Xin Ke would often freeze in place, forgetting to chew, wishing that Su Er would bathe and eat for her so that she could immerse herself completely in her research.

Doesn't it sound a bit like a cute and innocent girl?

Suer would sometimes make these analogies, as if trying to find humor in the situation.

Did he forget to mention something crucial?

Yes, Suer must state a very crucial point—even though he frequently bathed this forest elf, he absolutely never touched those sensitive areas! He forced Xinke to clean those areas herself.

He's not that kind of person.

Chapter 158 A Courageous and Mighty Figure: Jibril

Although he was somewhat used to helping Xinke take a bath, it was impossible for him not to feel tormented—to be honest, Suer felt that his will had been tempered to be as hard as steel in this regard.

The kind that doesn't involve using magic crystals.

"Oh? Playing in the water again?" Along with this greeting came the sound of flapping wings. Before Suer could answer, the owner of the voice folded his wings and fell into the lake.

Pfft!

No running start, arbitrary takeoff angle, virtually no mid-air movement, huge splash, and a spectacular entry into the water. Group 607784197

0 points.

"...If you want to try diving, go to the other side," Su Er said, wiping the water droplets off his face with a speechless expression. "I've said that so many times already, are you just deliberately picking a fight?"

"Perhaps it's because it's a bit difficult for the Skywing race to understand?" Xin Ke said with a cold laugh, forcibly pulled from her thoughts.

Without a doubt, the one who just landed was Jibril, the Filipino diving champion. This pink-haired, winged girl looked almost exactly the same as she had two years ago, and was now laughing heartily as she emerged from the lake.

"Hmm~, I feel like you look older than before, Sue? Does aging happen that fast?" Sue and Xinke's protests had no effect on Jibril, they were more refreshing than a breeze. She simply walked around to Sue's right side and asked curiously.

"...What you're saying sounds weird. In the human world, I'm in the prime of my youth, the most energetic time of my life—is it really that obvious?" As she spoke, Suer couldn't help but pinch her cheek.

The skin is firm and elastic, showing no signs of aging.

This is strange. Mingming Xinke didn't say anything. Is it because they see each other often?

Perhaps due to the reduction in his lifespan caused by repeatedly recovering from injuries, Suer matured far too quickly. Logically, he should be under twenty years old at this time, but he looks about twenty-three or twenty-four. However, this does not affect his good looks; rather, it is because of the accumulation of his past experiences that he has developed a profound charm.

His relationship with Jibril also improved. Or rather, putting aside her strange motto and belligerent nature, Sull actually thought that Jibril was a very good friend. She not only regarded him as a human being, but also communicated with him as naturally as friends. She didn't mind joking around at all and would laugh along with him.

Of course, Jibril wouldn't stay here for long during these two years. According to her, she needed to go back and rely on the healing spell to restore her strength. She would only come here to play when she was too bored. But doesn't she have a lot of free time?

Suer had also secretly complained to himself that he always felt this Skywing would come over for a stroll from time to time, regardless of day or night.

After getting to know Jibril better, Sull and Hinco learned some information that they didn't know what it was for: she was not a growing Skywing, and Skywings didn't have a growing period; they were created by the God of War Arteshue and were in their most powerful form.

Jibril's current weak, childlike appearance is simply a result of the severe power loss she suffered after independently killing the dragon spirit six years ago. Once she has acquired enough spirits to heal her injuries, she will revert to her true form.

Sull once asked Jibril why she didn't seem to change much after each visit to the recovery room. He thought that as the number of elves increased and her injuries healed, this winged girl would recreate the growth process of a young girl. However, Jibril told him that once her power was fully restored, she would directly jump to her true appearance.

In other words, theoretically speaking, all Skywing species have both an adult form and a young girl form...

God of War! What are you thinking?!

It must be copied immediately.

Ahem, just kidding. By the way, Suer and Xinke have finally confirmed a fact—Jiburiel is an extremely special existence even among the Skywing race.

When the God of War defeated the final dragon Hatirem and gained the title of the strongest, and his own power reached its peak in the war between the various races, the last Winged Race he created was Jibril. Because of this, Jibril's power surpassed that of the Winged Races created before her, namely her sisters.

Final Individual, Extra Individual, Side Story Individual, The Only Incomplete Individual... These are all titles belonging to Jibril.

"It's really obvious~~, human lifespan is far too short, isn't it?" Seeing Suer wiping Xinke's back again, Jibril turned over and lay flat on the water's surface. Then, drawn by gravity, she sank into the water with a gurgling sound, but her voice came through clearly.

"Ah! Don't forget what we said! I'm to keep your head after you die!!!" Suddenly remembering something very important, Jibril sat up abruptly from the lake. Her gaze swept over Xin Ke, and the water she kicked up splashed onto Su Er's face again.

Jibril made the request to her best friend without hesitation. It contained no malice whatsoever, it was truly without any intention of cursing, and it was even a very friendly request.

"...Okay, okay, can you be a little quieter?" After wiping the water off her face, Su Er sighed, showing no sign of anger.

He knew that Jibril's request was not malicious, and she had mentioned it to him before—or rather, it was her way of remembering friends worth cherishing, and it was very serious and important.

Jibril has given up on the idea of ​​killing Sul and Hinco, and even hopes that Sul can live longer. However, if Sul really dies peacefully one day, she will commemorate him in her own way and will not forget this friend who appeared in her life.

Completely understanding the differences in race and ideology, Suer himself didn't really care about such things... Anyway, he would die eventually, so whatever, being remembered seemed like a good thing.

"Hmm~", Jibril hummed an unknown song as she fell back into the water, satisfied.

"Speaking of which, did the things you made before work?" Xin Ke asked casually, closing her eyes and feeling Su Er's palm brushing against her forehead.

"Ah~, that hydrogen bomb?" Jibril perked up at the mention of it, but her high spirits quickly faded. "It's not very useful. It's alright as a toy, though. At least my master is quite happy."

"...You actually threw a hydrogen bomb at the God of War?" With a subtle look on his face, Suer turned his head to look at the little girl of the Skywing race who was submerged in the water. For a moment, he didn't know what expression to make.

A rebellious Flügel?

Where is CC?

Chapter 159 Jibril is trying her best

Anyone who has completed nine years of compulsory education knows the principle of nuclear weapons, which is nothing more than fission and fusion. However, that's all that Suer knows. What's more astonishing are Xinke and Jibril.

This forest elf and the winged race actually managed to create a hydrogen bomb in this world using only the limited knowledge he had. After receiving the protection of the spell, Suer also fulfilled his wish to see the mushroom cloud rise with his own eyes, adding another achievement to his life.

These two women are truly remarkable. If I had to pinpoint their contribution, I would say that all I did was introduce them to the concepts of molecules, atoms, and quarks.

More than anything else, Sull truly hadn't expected that Jibril's earlier statement about showing the God of War the hydrogen bomb upon their return would have such a perspective...

"Um... did the God of War say anything?" After a few seconds of trepidation, Suer still tried to subtly inquire about the God of War's condition from Jibril.

Don't get me wrong, it's not that he's worried about the God of War getting hurt. Even if Suer were stupid, he wouldn't worry about a god being injured by a mere nuclear weapon. What he's worried about is whether this strangely intelligent and powerful man will feel that he has been humiliated.

He was certain that the God of War had noticed him.

According to Jibril, the God of War usually sits in his seat and scans the entire continent with his eyes. Suer doesn't believe he can't see the whereabouts of his apostle, after all, the number of Skywings is not large.

Another piece of evidence is the origin of the Skywing race. They are a race created from the feathers on the eighteen wings of the God of War, so...

"Huh? Master is smiling happily, isn't he?" Jibril tilted her head and repeated, not understanding Suer's worries.

"Didn't you say anything?" Suer couldn't help but ask.

"It's not like he didn't say anything at all," Jibril thought, resting her chin on her hand. "He did say 'not bad'."

"It should be an admiration for you, and for the wisdom of the human race, right?" Jibril winked at Sul.

"..."

Speechless for a moment.

Yes, by now you probably understand that, like Xin Ke, Jibril is also someone who seems to have no respect for her creator, and even takes every opportunity to stab him in the back.

The only difference is that Xin Ke truly showed no respect, while Jibril was doing it more as if she was following the will of the God of War—the God of War wanted her to do so.

This is why she is called the only incomplete individual by her compatriots.

Unlike her stubborn compatriots who only knew how to follow orders and were even troubled by their rigidity and mechanical nature, Jibril desperately tried to prove something to them. Even though she was covered in wounds and insisted on fighting alone, it was all to break through the common sense in her compatriots' minds—the common sense that the Skywing race could not defeat the superior race alone.

An incomplete individual means wanting to become complete, and to achieve that completeness, one needs to master and absorb everything that can make oneself stronger, which is why one does things beyond orders... touching the unknown.

This is why Jibril endlessly challenges superior races such as the Dragon Spirits, Fantasy Races, and Giants, which her fellow tribesmen believe are invincible on their own.

This is also why she broke through the mental boundaries of other Skywing races and learned to use Forest Elf magic.

That's why she was here, and why she accepted the defeat so readily at that time.
