"I, I really just... I just want to change our relationship from friends to close friends, that's all, Mei, please don't misunderstand me."

When he said this, he stumbled like an innocent little virgin.

If Bronya and the others saw this, they would be so disgusted that they would beat him up.

however--

"No, no... Of course I wouldn't misunderstand."

Shaking her head, Mei tried to remain calm, smiled faintly, and said, "It is my honor to be your close friend."

After seeing Luo Hong "panic", she calmed down instead and felt extremely relaxed.

Admittedly, it was just a transformation from "friends" to "close friends", but the change in the relationship alone made her feel happy.

As a result, all the depression in her heart was relieved at this moment.

"Honored is an exaggeration."

Waving his hand towards Meiyi, Luo Hong said, "To you, what I did is indeed like a miracle, but you also have to think about it."

"In this lonely world, your company alone is salvation for me. Isn't this a miracle?"

After saying that, he looked at Mei with sincerity on his face.

More importantly, he did not lie. After all, it was indeed a miracle that he could see these Valkyries.

Therefore, what he said was sincere and heartfelt.

"..."

When Meiyi, who was looking at Luo Hong, heard this, her pretty face turned red and she subconsciously looked away.

This was both "salvation" and "miracle", which left her stunned.

The heart that was originally tightly closed is now gradually showing signs of opening up.

074. Mei: I, I can't do anything... (5K)

Outside the house, the bright sunshine shone on Mei's body, giving her a halo.

"Luo Hong..."

Walking side by side with Luo Hong in the courtyard of the dojo, she gradually came to her senses and asked, "Did they ask you to come?"

"Yes."

Luo Hong did not deny this, but before Meiyi could continue, he added: "But this matter does involve me. After all, it was me who suggested that if the other party wanted Kiana, it would be best to hand her over peacefully."

But he really didn't expect it to be so peaceful, with not even a single conflict between the two sides.

According to Theresa, Kiana even wanted to go there on her own initiative.

——Walter promised Kiana to meet Siegfried!

And finding Siegfried's whereabouts is one of Kiana's purposes for joining St. Freya's Academy, or even the most important reason!

and--

"Even without your advice, Kiana would have left."

Shaking her head, Mei showed a helpless smile and said, "After all, the gap in strength between the two sides was too great at the time. For our sake, Kiana had no choice but to follow them and leave."

Recalling the lineup at that time, she couldn't help but feel powerless.

Although Walter gave the core of the Herrscher of Reason to Bronya, he himself seems to still have the ability of the Herrscher of Reason.

Therefore, the former Acting Herrscher's attack on Bronya, who had just become the Herrscher of Reason, was a dimensionality reduction attack.

And the two strongest fighters on their side, Theresa and Jizi, have to face Yulandel and Rita... To be honest, there is almost no chance of winning this battle.

Even if they win by chance, they still have to face the mysterious World Serpent Lord.

Just by standing there, the man made everyone feel depressed. He was definitely not an opponent they could defeat.

She even had the illusion that even if everyone present attacked together, they might not be able to defeat that person.

therefore--

"In front of them, I, I can't do anything..."

After she finished speaking, she bit her lips tightly, with an unwilling look on her face, and even a little moisture in the corners of her eyes.

She has obviously worked so hard during this period, but her growth rate is meaningless in front of these truly strong people.

“Ha, hahaha…”

However, seeing this, Luo Hong couldn't help laughing out loud.

Of course, he wasn't feeling happy because of seeing the famous scene... well, a little bit of that.

But more importantly—

"Don't worry, I just think it's a little funny that you have a mountain of gold but don't know how to use it."

Reaching out to stop Mei from speaking, he quickly expressed his thoughts.

"Gold Mountain?"

Hearing Luo Hong say this, Meiyi, who didn't know how to face Luo Hong's laughter, couldn't help but think of something, and then her body trembled violently.

"You mean... the Herrscher of Thunder in me?"

"clever."

Nodding, Luo Hong placed his hand on Mei's shoulder and said, "It may sound cruel to say this, but if you don't cheat, Mei, you will never be able to catch up with them in this lifetime."

"After all, they are all cheating players!"

As he spoke, he counted on his fingers.

"Yaya, she just got the driver... I am the core of the Herrscher of Reason."

"Kiana will soon receive a large amount of Houkai energy, which will fully awaken the Herrscher of the Void within her."

"As for you, if you still fear the Herrscher of Thunder, how can you stand with them in the future?"

Honestly speaking, when Mei fully grows up, she may not be that bad, and it is not even impossible for her to fight against the Herrscher.

But no matter how talented a person is, it takes time to exchange for talent, but isn't time the thing she lacks the most?

In the original world line, the time given to her to grow was very short, and now it has been compressed to the extreme.

Therefore, even if she could hone her skills "day and night" during this period, the time was still not enough for her to grow.

So at this time——

"I understand!"

Hearing Luo Hong say this, she revealed a resolute look and said seriously: "Since you said so, then I think there is a way to help me obtain the power of the Herrscher of Thunder, right?"

"Tell me, no matter what the price is, I am willing to pay it!"

"But this time—"

Before Luo Hong could speak, she spoke first: "Don't make it a small matter anymore, otherwise I will not be able to be your close friend anymore."

"For something of this magnitude, even if I were facing Kiana and Bronya, I would still try my best to repay them."

In order to avoid Luo Hong's misunderstanding, she added one last sentence.

"Ah!"

With a light laugh, Luo Hong nodded and said, "Since you have said so, I will naturally not let you down."

"Now, let me help you remove the bomb from your heart. Otherwise, it will be difficult for me to awaken the Herrscher of Thunder within you."

After saying that, Luo Hong "unnecessarily" put his hand on Mei's back.

"Um……"

Feeling Luo Hong's warm big hand moving from her shoulder to her back, Meiyi's pretty face turned slightly red.

They were clearly touching through clothes, but as the position changed, she felt something different.

In particular, as Luo Hong began to remove the bomb from her heart, she could feel waves of warmth entering her body.

This feeling is so wonderful that—

"Hmm!"

Unable to hold back, she gave a strange look.

Although she quickly covered her mouth with her hand, the sound that came out of her mouth still made her so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole to crawl into.

but--

He is so serious!

She glanced at Luo Hong and saw that he had his eyes closed, and even his eyebrows didn't twitch at the sound she just made.

Seeing this, she couldn't help but feel ashamed for having such distracting thoughts in her mind.

soon--

"It's done."

Showing a surprised and sunny smile, Luo Hong said: "Next, I will awaken the Herrscher of Thunder for you. Be prepared."

"Um……"

Mei nodded, her pretty face slightly red with shame.

Seeing this——

"how?"

With a look of concern in his eyes, Luo Hong asked seriously, "Did I do something wrong just now that caused you to feel uncomfortable?"

"No, no..."

Facing Luo Hong's gaze, Meiyi instinctively looked away.

Shaking her head, she twirled her slender index finger around her drooping purple hair and said, "I just feel... a little hot."

After saying this, her pretty face turned even redder, after all, she had deceived Luo Hong.

But she couldn't express her true feelings.

"Let me adjust the temperature around me."

With an expression of no doubt, Luo Hong adjusted the temperature around him and said, "Let's go in and complete the last task."

Then he walked into the dojo again.

"Um……"

Looking at Luo Hong's back, Mei felt her cheeks getting hot, and a subtle feeling was rippling in her heart.

But she did not forget her business and hurried to follow.

Returning to the dojo, she and Luo Hong sat cross-legged opposite each other.

"In fact, every time you enter my world, she is awake."

Luo Hong, who was facing Mei Yi, said, "But I was worried that you couldn't face her, so I let her sleep first."

"Is that so?"

Seeing Luo Hong taking such good care of her, Meiyi felt warm in her heart.

The surging emotions also began to grow and spread wildly in her heart.

"But, actually, you don't have to be afraid of her at all."

With a faint smile, Luo Hong said, "She actually likes you quite a lot."

"what?"

Mei was so shocked by the answer that the emotions that were growing in her heart stopped. After all, this news was too outrageous for her.

"She is like an older sister, always protecting you silently."

Admiring Meiyi's shocked expression, Luo Hong raised the corners of his mouth and said, "Of course, in order to maintain her dignity, she is quite fierce in her words."
