Honkai Impact 3rd, Paradise Typewriter isn't for making this kind of game.

"Haha, I got it!"

Just as Padofelis was about to pounce on the magic hat next to Xia Yuan, Aponia suddenly appeared in front of Padofelis.

"Ah~ Lost cat, could you please return what you stole from Mr. Xia Yuan?"

Padofelis hugged the heavy magician's hat tightly to her chest. Now that it was in her hands, Xia Yuan wouldn't take it away, not even from Nia. So the girl started to rack her brains.

"Waaaaah... Sister Nia, you have no idea how awful Xia Yuan was to me yesterday!"

"Ahem, Pado, it was against my will."

Xia Yuan quickly explained.

"See, Sister Nia, Brother Xia Yuan himself admitted it~"

Just as Padofelis was about to accept the compensation that was rightfully hers, the [Commandment] that Aponia had just placed was activated against Padofelis's will.

"Huh?! My hands... my hands seem to be acting up!"

Padofelis's hands moved uncontrollably as she returned the magician's hat to Xia Yuan, and she even took out all the few remaining possessions she had and handed them over to him.

Under the influence and intervention of Aponia's [Discipline]~

Poor little Paddy will hand over all her valuable possessions to Xia Yuan.

"So that's how it's done..."

Xia Yuan now seemed to understand how the nun had guided the lost sheep.

"Waaaaah... Brother Xia Yuan, please give those things back to us!"

"Oh? But wasn't this a gift you gave me yourself, Pado?"

Xia Yuan joked.

Padofelis, devastated by the loss of all her valuables, was heartbroken. She regretted ever getting close to Xia Yuan near Sister Nia. But thankfully...

The girl kept most of her other valuables in the shops in the Paradise of the Past, and didn't carry many with her.

This is the only good news that Padrephilis has felt all day.

After this brief interlude, Xia Yuan and the others set off for the [Houmu Restaurant] led by the fairy Ai Li, but Padofelis, who was walking at the back, was clearly not in the right state of mind.

Her resentful eyes were fixed on Xia Yuan beside her, and she kept muttering something to herself.

Noticing Phyllis's gaze, Xia Yuan couldn't resist teasing her again.

He took out a shiny coin and waved it in front of Phyllis like a cat toy, but the coin, which was right in front of her, could not be touched because of the influence of the [Commandment].

"Humph!"

Chapter 177 Thank you, Alicia~

Accompanied by a cry of shame and indignation from the girl.

Phyllis turned her head away, deliberately avoiding looking at Xia Yuan. She already understood that Xia Yuan was deliberately teasing her!

Aponia walked behind the group with her arms crossed in front of her chest, looking at Pado, who was sulking and looking unhappy, and Xia Yuan, who was trying hard not to laugh, with a loving and caring gaze.

"Brother Xia Yuan, you're still laughing... Don't laugh at us anymore! Otherwise, we really will bite!"

Padofelis pretended to look extremely fierce.

She kept scratching at Xia Yuan's arm, which was so close to her with her little paws. Not to mention her hidden treasures, she had almost given up her entire fortune and even herself this time. She had really lost everything... She was so unlucky.

But when Aponia, who was walking at the back, came between the two, she gently placed her hands on Xia Yuan and Padofelis's shoulders.

perhaps......

The maternal glow emanating from Aponia was so powerful that Padofelis gradually regained her composure, and her little hand involuntarily slipped off Xia Yuan's arm.

At this moment, Vivi, who was walking on the left, was carefully considering her culinary skills.

Since we're going to eat...

Should I demonstrate my culinary skills to Mr. Xia Yuan? After all, I'm not like a magician who only performs acrobatics on the street.

[Hey~~ Baiwei, I can hear you now!]

Eden, walking to Xia Yuan's right, was strolling through the streets where the snow had been cleared, looking at the bustling city covered in white snow, lost in thought... Her era had passed.

"Miss Eden, what are you thinking about?"

Xia Yuan seemed to sense what was on the other person's mind and stepped forward to ask softly.

"I was just a little distracted, looking at the peaceful and stable world we live in now, and I couldn't help but feel a little sentimental." Eden brought his gaze back. "Mr. Xia Yuan, this new and wonderful era was created by you."

“Miss Eden, this era also belongs to you. Without the efforts of pioneers like Miss Eden, we would not have such a bright future.”

"Thank you, Mr. Xia Yuan."

Eden slowly extended his hand towards Xia Yuan...

The arrival of the other party allowed her, who was once the memory of Yingjie, to have the opportunity to see the world as it is today, while the former Ellie planted the seeds of hope for the future.

The two clasped hands.

But their gazes all turned to the fairy Airi flying at the very front.

"Thank you... Alicia."

The fairy Ellie, who was leading the way, seemed to notice the gazes of Eden and Xia Yuan behind her, and turned around to wave her little hand.

"My dear Eden, little Xia Yuan... why are you looking at this adorable fairy like that?"

The fairy Ellie felt a little shy under their gaze and quickly tried to distract them.

"Ahem... Anyway, Xia Yuan, Eden, Velvet... and Aponia and Pado who's lagging behind, hurry up and catch up with the cute fairy's pace, I can already smell the steaming fried rice~"

Lured by her sweet tooth, the fairy Ellie rushed into the [Houmu Restaurant] first. But when Xia Yuan passed by the restaurant again, he was surprised to find that there was a notice board outside the restaurant this time.

"When did these extras appear?"

Perhaps he was only thinking about the fairy Ellie last time and didn't pay much attention to the surrounding situation.

It was written in red chalk above...

[Limited-edition fried rice from Master Qian's passionate spirit, first come, first served!]

Sold out...

"Master Qian? Sold out?! Did I miss something when I was looking for Little Ellie?"

Xia Yuan immediately thought of that man.

Glancing back at Aponia, he then nervously entered the restaurant second, hoping that if Qianjie saw Aponia later, the two wouldn't start arguing...

At this moment~

In the kitchen of [Houmu Restaurant], Qianjie, who had been busy all day, was wiping the sweat from his face with a towel draped over his shoulder.

"Master Qian, thank you for your hard work. Please accept this as your payment."

Qian Jie nodded slowly. There was neither the annoying Mebius nor the annoying nun here. He had come to like his work here and could fully express his enthusiasm for life.

No unwanted people to disturb us...

After visiting Mount Taixu, he said goodbye to Sakura and Kevin, who had once been his colleagues, and then returned to the city.

He really didn't want to see Aponia and the others again.

Just then, an untimely and slightly playful voice suddenly echoed in Qianjie's ears.

"Moshi moshi~"

"Is anyone here? Come quickly and bring the cute fairy... uh... five or six servings of fragrant fried rice!"

Fairy Ellie counted the number of people on her little hands and placed the heavy magician's hat on the front desk, after all, she wasn't a fairy who couldn't afford to eat.

"Little Ellie, don't run around..."

Xia Yuan walked into the restaurant and called out, but Fairy Airi had already flown to the kitchen.

"Oh, Qianjie, I never expected it would be you in the kitchen..."

I didn't see you last time I came. It seems you're quite dedicated to this job, Qianjie!

In that case, Miss Pink Fairy should definitely try Qian Jie's cooking. Give me six servings of Master Qian's fried rice; Miss Pink Fairy wants to see if it's as delicious as Xia Yuan's.

"Alicia, why are you here?"

Anger gradually surfaced around Qian Jie's mask... A hoarse, low voice came from beneath the mask.

"Hmm~"

Why can't cute fairies appear here? I'm a customer, you know, the kind who pays!

Qianjie stretched out his hand, pointed to the sign hanging beside him, and said calmly:

"Our store is closed."

"Don't be so heartless, Qianjie~ Besides me, there's Xia Yuan... and the others too. It's rare for us to get together, so hurry up and make seven servings of fragrant fried rice, okay~"

The fairy Ellie kept poking at Qianjie's mask with her little hands.

Are you angry?

Are you angry?

"Ah~ Qianjie, I never expected to meet you here. Ah... this must be a revelation from fate. Seeing you safe and sound here, Qianjie, I am at ease."

I'm really angry!

Thousand Calamities' rage value had already approached its maximum value [MAX] after Aponia appeared.

Flames even raged overhead.

"Uncle, you!"

"It's so hot! Brother Jie is on fire! Brother Xia Yuan, Sister Eden, Sister Wilvi, Sister Aili, Sister Nia, quickly think of a way to cool Brother Jie down."

Chapter 178 The Fairy Airi Adds Fuel to the Fire

Feeling the rising temperature around her, Pathophyll paced back and forth, beads of sweat gradually forming on her cheeks.

If this continues, the whole restaurant will be burned down by Brother Jie, meow!

"Little Paddy, don't panic, let Miss Pink Fairy think of a solution~"

Amidst a cloud of smoke, the fairy Ellie appeared to be holding a small pink spray bottle, seemingly out of nowhere, and was pouring water onto Qianjie's head, attempting to extinguish the flames that had risen above him.

However, things didn't go as planned; the flames rising from Qianjie's head seemed to grow even stronger under its influence.

"Huh?"

"My fairy spray bottle isn't working on Qianjie anymore... That's strange, it used to be quite effective."

Fairy Ellie stared in confusion at the magical little spray bottle in her hand.

A question arose in my mind: what exactly was wrong with my props?

"Wait, Ellie, where did you get your water from...?"

"Hmm~ Of course, it's right next to the spatula that Qianjie uses for cooking."

Xia Yuan looked in the direction the fairy Ai Li was pointing, and when he saw the bucket with the words "cooking oil" engraved on it, he quickly picked up the fairy Ai Li from Qian Jie's side and brought her back.

"My silly Ellie... don't add fuel to the fire now!"

Just as Xia Yuan was at his wits' end, trying to figure out how to calm Qian Jie down and at least prevent the restaurant from burning down, his companion, Wilvi, had already placed a piece of ice on Qian Jie's head.

[Physical Cooling Methods from Miss Baiwei]

"That should prevent a fire, right?"

"......"

After a moment of silence, the ice on his head melted rapidly.

"Hmm, it's melted. As expected, the dosage just now was still too small for Qianjie. I should take out all the ice cubes from the refrigerator later."

The girl is collecting ice cubes...

But just as the girl was trying to find ice...

He forced out a hoarse, low voice and threw Wilvi out of the kitchen.

"I said...have you guys had enough?"
