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

After Xia Yuan finished speaking in a daze, he hugged Xiao Ai Li tightly and turned over.

"Humph!"

It seems that humans can no longer rely on others to fill their stomachs.

As expected, she still had to rely on herself. She decided to show the other party what it meant to be an all-powerful spring spirit. Besides searching for each other yesterday, she and the little fairy also thoroughly cleaned their house.

Around noon—

Xia Yuan had just woken up from his drunken state the day before. As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Xiao Ai Li looking at him with bright, innocent eyes.

"Hi, Xia Yuan, the surgery went very well. Miss Pink Fairy has given birth! It's a cute girl just like Ellie~" Fairy Ellie held a doll that looked exactly like herself and waved it in front of him.

"Ellie, stop it, how long have I been asleep?"

"Hmm, it's already noon~ Xia Yuan, would you like to have lunch first, or would you like to try the pre-meal snack called [Fairy Ellie Sandwich Cookie]?"

She placed the cushion on the bedside table and pointed to herself.

This sandwich cookie was created by Fairy Ai Li, Xia Yuan, and Bed.

"Let's eat first."

He helplessly pinched the other person's chubby little round face; the first thing they did upon waking up was to tease him.

Perhaps sensing Xia Yuan's thoughts, she spoke again: "Little Xia Yuan, if you want Ai Li to do something worthwhile, then work hard to wake up Miss Pink Fairy as soon as possible. Then Little Xia Yuan will make sure Miss Pink Fairy can't get out of bed!"

Despite the teasing and taunting from the fairy Ellie, he was forced to slip out of his comfortable bed.

She looked at the heart-shaped device at her waist, which was almost full. She would soon be able to meet Xia Yuan again, but for the sake of prudence, she decided to secretly follow him all day to prevent him from secretly taking her magical energy to give warmth to others.

Upon arriving in the living room, Ah Quan was already waiting for him in an armchair.

"Human, you're awake? Since you're awake, hurry up and sit down to eat." She pushed out a chair next to her and patted it.

"Ah Quan, did you make all these dishes?"

Looking at the table full of dishes, although they were all combinations of cabbage and coconut, it was enough to show the care the other party had put in.

"Hmph, human, what are you saying? The spirit of the spring is naturally omnipotent. Come and try it and see if it's delicious." She put on a rather proud look, but in Xia Yuan's eyes, the little head she raised seemed more like she was waiting for his praise.

The appearance is good, but as for the taste...

Xia Yuan casually picked up a rice ball made of cabbage and tasted it carefully. Everything on the surface seemed normal, but the charred black back and the lethal amount of salt inside made him look uneasy.

"Human, how is it? Is it delicious?" she asked expectantly.

Ah Quan was just hoping for his praise. The other party had worked hard to get up early and cook a meal. If he dared to say a word against it, he was afraid that several parasols would be stuck in his body the next second.

"Good, delicious."

Miss Spring Fairy's mood instantly brightened; it was worth the effort of searching through a bunch of modern cookbooks.

"It's delicious, then humans, you should eat more."

If he eats everything on this table, A-Quan might be accused of murdering her husband. Has Mei really taken over all the cooking and culinary skills? No, he has to come up with a solution.

"Aili, dinner's ready!"

He shouted loudly to the pink pig in the bedroom, "Sharing is worse than enjoying alone; such delicious food should be shared with everyone."

"Hmm, Xia Yuan, you finally remembered me? When I was trying to sneak a bite to eat, Quan wouldn't even let me touch it. He insisted on letting the male head of the household wake up before we could eat. Ai Li was so hungry she was practically seeing stars."

The Spring Spirit snorted, but her mind was still lingering on the moment the human had just praised her.

"That's wonderful, cough cough... I mean, Ellie, eat as much as you want!"

Chapter 706 My Dear Little Guinea Mouse~

"Xia Yuan, aren't you going to eat with us?"

Fairy Airi pointed to the rice ball she was holding; at least it looked delicious.

"Um... I'm going outside to pick up a package. Ai Li, you and A Quan eat first, I'll be right back." Xia Yuan gestured for them to leave, and quietly left his cozy little house.

Less than three seconds.

Ellie's deafening voice echoed in his ears, even after he had successfully slipped away.

"Xiao Xia Yuan, how could you bear to deceive such an adorable fairy? Ugh, ugh, ugh... This rice ball is so awful, did you put all the salt in it instead of sugar? Xiao Xia Yuan, how cruel you are, using Ai Li as a test subject for poison!"

"You little devil, who are you calling a bad cook!"

Just as the fairy Airi was about to flap her little wings and rush out to confront her keeper, the spring spirit grabbed the halo above her head. She then realized she had misspoke, but how could an honest fairy lie?

"Of course it's because yours is terrible, A-Quan. It's not even one ten-thousandth as good as the sandwich Xia-Yuan made for the cute fairy. If you don't believe me, try a bite yourself and you'll see." She handed the rice ball in her hand to him.

"Hmph, I worked so hard to cook this meal, you have to eat it today whether you like it or not!"

"Ellie will never give in today!"

Even if her cooking was slightly less than perfect, it wasn't up to a mere little imp to criticize. She was the mistress of the house, and clearly, a major battle between them was inevitable.

The match between the Herrscher of the Void and the Herrscher of Man officially begins today.

In this regard.

Xia Yuan, who quietly slipped away, only hoped that the two of them, despite their bickering, wouldn't destroy the house.

He figured he wouldn't be able to go home today. Remembering his promise to little Gretchen, he decided to visit her at the Golden Garden first. Those two troublemakers at home were nothing compared to the sweet, soft, and affectionate little Gretchen who called him "Brother Xia Yuan."

in the afternoon.

The outer gate of the Golden Courtyard was wide open. Could it be that someone had gone out?

He kept it in mind for the time being and jogged all the way to the infirmary. This time he was smarter and listened for hissing noises as he opened the door. Only after confirming that there were no hissing noises did he feel safe enough to push open the door to the infirmary.

The beds in the medical room were empty.

Only little Klein, wearing a nurse's cap, was injecting some unknown green liquid into the syringe.

"Hey, where's little Gretchen lying in the hospital bed?"

After Klein finished injecting the syringe, he raised it high and carried it on his shoulder.

"Sir, if you are looking for Gretchen, she left the infirmary yesterday. However, according to my examination, there are no signs of injury on Gretchen's ankle. But she left a note, which should be for you."

Xia Yuan crouched down and took the note from Klein's free right hand.

[Brother Xia Yuan, Gretchen heard that Aunt Mebius has a new invention that can make little Gretchen grow into an adult instantly. Don't forget to recognize the big Gretchen then!]

Dr. Möbius's laboratory?

He'd ask Little Klein if there were any other clues for now, and as for Snake's lab, he planned to go there later.

"Klein, did little Gretsch say anything else, like where she is now?"

"I heard it's for some kind of comic convention. Oh... by the way, I found a sky-blue hair clip while I was making the bed yesterday. It must have been left behind by her. If you see Gretsch, please give it to her for me."

He nodded slightly and took the hair clip.

After saying goodbye to Little Klein, he willingly fell into the snake's trap. Perhaps the snake already knew his scent, because the feeling of falling was indeed like going down a slide.

However, this time when he opened his eyes, his body was not tied to the experimental table.

On the contrary, Dr. Mebius, who was not far away, was talking to himself and searching for something among the bottles and jars. "Strange, where did I put those two bottles of potion? They were just there not long ago."

Hearing the noise behind her, she turned her head.

"Oh, my dear little white mouse, you've come at the perfect time! Come quickly and help me find those two lost potions, one blue and one red." Dr. Mebius looked delighted to see the other person arrive.

Last time I massaged her so hard her bones almost melted!

Although she really wanted another back massage, she needed to find the two bottles of medicine first.

Xia Yuan came up behind Dr. Möbius, which was undoubtedly a good angle. In the past, the other party would have been eagerly lying on the experimental table with his little bottom sticking out, asking him to massage it.

But now, the snake has actually left him hanging.

If it wasn't due to a change of heart, then the only explanation is that those two vials of medicine were extremely important to Dr. Möbius.

"Doctor, what are the effects of those two bottles of potion, one blue and one red, that you're looking for?"

"Little mouse, you should have heard from Alicia that my body becomes younger every time I am reborn, but there will inevitably come a day when it ends. If my body becomes a baby, will I still have my current mind?"

"Or perhaps I was Möbius back then, or a helpless infant, which led me to conduct deeper research into the realms of body and consciousness, though it seems there are still considerable side effects."

"side effect?"

His heart skipped a beat.

Recalling the note left by little Gretchen, it's highly likely that she secretly took Mebius's potion in order to become an adult and participate in that so-called comic convention.

"Doctor, I'd like to ask what the side effects are?"

"If you drink both bottles, your body will grow faster, but your consciousness will become blurred, like someone who has spent a long time in a cryogenic chamber, only retaining the most important memories of themselves... a little, a lab rat?"

"Doctor, I have something to attend to and need to leave for a moment."

She watched Xia Yuan's hurried departure, a faint green light flashing in his vertical pupils. It seemed that he knew the whereabouts of her two vials of potions. So, she would listen to the guinea pig and go out to bask in the sun.

Dr. Möbius secretly followed the other party in his aircraft.

After asking passersby for directions, he finally found his destination. But looking at the huge crowd at the venue, where should little Gretchen even begin to search? It wasn't until he overheard a conversation among the people around him.

Hey, did you guys hear? Gretchen-sensei is releasing a new manga today.

Chapter 707 Special Guest!

Of course, people live for Gretchen-sensei!

[To make it to the release date of Gretsch's manga, I even asked the team leader for leave in advance. I wonder if Gretsch will actually show up today?]

[Hehe, we have to thank Lord Siegfried for this. If he hadn't successfully drawn the bishop's attention, we wouldn't have been able to wander around the city so freely~]

Hmm, I wonder who rescued Lord Siegfried from the bitter gourd field.

sound........

The three young ladies in casual clothes who were talking not far away seemed to be Valkyries of Destiny. Since they were fans of Little Grey, they might know where Little Grey was right now.

"Excuse me, could you tell me when this teacher Gretsch you mentioned will make her appearance?"

[It'll still be a while before Gretchen takes the stage. She's probably backstage preparing her makeup and outfit right now, right? Hmm... I really want to know Gretchen's real identity!]

The young lady in front of me, who had taken a day off to slack off, seemed to have fallen into some kind of frenzy.

However, he was a good person and would never secretly film the three of them going out to fish and show it to His Holiness the Bishop, but it would be best to slip away as soon as possible.

Thank you.

Hey buddy, you look familiar. Have we met somewhere before?

Come to think of it, I feel like I've seen him somewhere before. He looks exactly like that older brother in Gretchen's manga.

This manga has been serialized for quite a while, but there seems to be a pattern in Gretchen's works.

The older brother remains constant, while the female protagonists come and go... Whether it's being bullied by his female boss at work or confessing to the nun who is like a mother in the prayer room, the older brother, as the male protagonist, will always inadvertently appear in various scenes.

But when she turned around again, the person who had asked Gretchen, who was suspected to be the "elder brother" from the comics, had already disappeared.

Backstage dressing room —

Xia Yuan jumped down from the bathroom window. The Valkyrie of Destiny was maintaining order at the door, not allowing anyone other than staff to enter. He had actually sneaked in, but why did he always have this guilty feeling?

He only came to see Little Gretchen, not to climb over the wall to get his idol's autograph.

After leaving the restroom, Xia Yuan skillfully pretended to be a staff member.

They searched room by room for little Gretchen's whereabouts. Although they had not yet found Gretchen, they overheard a conversation between two old acquaintances—Ms. Herrscher of Knowledge and Ms. Shigure Kira.

"A concert?!"

"I'm not trying to be mean, Shigure Kira, but are you going to make noise again? There are so many people here, I'm begging you, please stop singing~ Wouldn't it be better to dance to liven things up?"

The lady who knew the law kept trying to dissuade him.

"This is my chance to debut as an idol, don't get in my way. And you're not even on the guest list, so why are you in my dressing room?"

"Hey, who says I'm not? I'm a special guest! I'm here to cause trouble, cough cough... no, I'm here to perform acrobatics. Breaking a boulder on my chest, doing the splits in mid-air, and eating ramen while upside down are all child's play."

Just kidding, how could the great Lawgiver of Knowledge be absent from something so exciting?

"You're abusing your Herrscher powers again to manipulate the consciousness of ordinary people. Believe me or not, I'll come back and tell Fu Hua."

"Hey, no way! I just asked them to add one more person to the special guest list. If all else fails, how about I change everyone's mindset? Even if the singing is terrible, the audience will just clap, which is much more reliable than Prometheus's machine audience~"

"You don't need it!"
