You Have a New Job (Continued)

At this moment, Himeko, Theresa, and Bronya, who were nearly crashed due to the aftermath of the battle between Anqi and Skyfire during their flight, finally arrived at the scene belatedly.

There was nothing left here except for a devastated post-war ruin.

Himeko pulled the three who had arrived earlier to learn more about what had just happened, and then breathed a sigh of relief.

She patted the dejected Raiden Mei on the shoulder and smiled:

"Isn't this a good thing? It means that the stubborn little mule is alright now, she's just still being difficult. We can just wait and tie her up again next time we have the chance, right?"

"A... quarrel?"

"Otherwise what? Besides not talking to you, has she done anything to you?"

Himeko rolled her eyes.

Raiden Mei and Bronya, caught in the middle of the situation, naturally carried an immense psychological burden, filled with guilt and remorse. Despite their extreme worry and longing for Anqi, they dared not reach out to her when they actually saw her.

From an outsider's perspective, Anqi's actions have already demonstrated her choice.

If she truly considered them enemies, with her current strength, would Raiden Mei and Bronya still be standing here unharmed?

"Next time you see her, go and hug her. I know that child. On the surface, she is smart, capable, and passionate, but she is actually sensitive and prone to overthinking. She easily creates obstacles for herself, but she is completely unable to resist the sincerity of those around her. Believe me, as long as you hug her and tell her that you still consider her your closest friend, she will blush and be unable to refuse your affection."

Himeko said with great satisfaction.

The bystanders nodded thoughtfully.

Kiana, in particular, suddenly realized and slapped her palm – reflecting on her past actions, she realized that she had been on the right track all along!

Only Skyfire and the Jackal, who were not far apart, exchanged a glance with a somewhat subtle look in their eyes.

"Sensitive, obsessive, and prone to overthinking... Am I that kind of person?"

Anqi placed a fragment of the Gray Serpent mask in front of the tombstone, then frowned and asked her parents.

No one answered her question.

So she sat down cross-legged, looking sullen.

"Well, I've basically taken all the revenge I needed to. Would you guys be a little happier knowing that?"

"That idiot Gray Serpent really thinks he's sacrificing himself for the organization and his mission. He has no idea he's been my puppet for a long time, going east when I tell him to go east, and west when I tell him to go west. When he dies, and how many of them die, it all depends on my mood. Hahaha, those idiots still don't know anything. How hilarious!"

Anqi burst into laughter.

But actually, there wasn't much happiness or joy.

Looking at the quiet and cold tombstone, Anqi's smile quickly vanished.

"I'm sorry, I wanted to make you laugh, but I just can't. I've become really powerful, haven't I? I can even outmaneuver a non-human monster like the Gray Serpent that has lived for who knows how many years. Aren't you scared of me?"

With each scene unfolding and each identity revealed, she now finds herself increasingly afraid to imagine the day the truth will be exposed.

Nowadays, apart from the silly and simple-minded Sirin and the honest and loyal Benales, who would know that she had been planning and cultivating so many identities since so early on? Everyone would definitely regard her as a scheming monster, right?

Oh, Sue was an exception, but unfortunately he's gone.

"Am I... am I really getting stuck on this?"

Anqi suddenly realized something, slapped her forehead, and had to admire Himeko's insight—goodness, she's paying so much attention to me, and you still say you don't like me?

Anqi grinned, gazing at the tombstone before her, a hint of relief flashing in her clear, purple eyes.

Having killed all those who needed to be killed, I felt much lighter, as if a shackle had been removed.

At the same time, you suddenly lose some motivation, making you want to be lazy.

Anqi simply lay down flat, placed her hands on her lower abdomen, and looked at the sky that was gradually turning white. The various thoughts in her mind gradually dissipated.

"We'll study and analyze the network system pattern of the Gray Serpent later. I haven't slept in a long time, so I'll stop here and get some sleep."

Anqi murmured, then slowly closed her eyes.

[Hello... hello... this is Ninti, can you hear me?]

[I... sizzle...]

[Kai... Snake... Sizzle...]

Intermittent signals were coming from the internal network.

A hint of helplessness flashed across Ninti's small face.

'The power is still usable, but it will be subject to interference and limitations... As expected, the power will not disappear upon leaving the world; however, the supply of cocoons will weaken as the spatial and temporal distance increases.'

'It seems I'll have to wait until I figure out some new method while I'm still in the world, or until I go back, before I can re-establish effective communication.'

As Ninti pondered, Welt's eyelids suddenly twitched beneath the trees nearby.

"Joachim, ah~~"

Welt's consciousness had just returned, and in a daze, he opened his mouth following the voice that made him feel no sense of vigilance.

Something soft and sweet was stuffed into my mouth.

Welt chewed subconsciously, then sat up abruptly.

"Ning... Di..."

Welt rubbed his throbbing head and watched as Ninti pulled a new jelly from her pocket, tore open the packaging, and was about to feed it to him.

"Wait, where am I? Where did you get this jelly?"

"I don't know where this place is. After that person left, Joachim fainted, so I tried to find a world I could crawl into in order to find a doctor for Joachim. But there seems to be no one here, I only found this food."

Ninti pointed in the direction to the side.

Welt followed his gaze and saw a desolate, dilapidated steel wasteland. After a moment, he pondered:

"Then we should still be in the Sea of Quantum. There are many phantoms or remnants of worlds in the Quantum World, which may be annihilated by the energy in the sea at any time. These are called World Bubble. This place should be a World Bubble."

"World...bubble? Ninti seems to have heard this word before."

"In any case, compared to the empty Sea of Quantum, this kind of World Bubble is still more suitable as a place to rest."

Welt said absentmindedly, pondering the current situation and the way forward.

Then Ninti tore open another jelly and held it to Welt's mouth.

Welt glanced at the specks of dirt on Ninti's face, realizing they were from her frantic search for food, and his heart softened. He shook his head, looking at Ninti with doting affection, and said gently:

"No, I am Herrscher, I don't need to eat. This is the food you found, you can eat it, Ninti."

"But Joachim, Sister Liesel said that patients need more nutrition. Honey, we can only eat this now, you can't be picky, okay~~"

The little girl looked at Welt with pure and earnest eyes, her expression blank and expressionless, but her concern was evident in her actions.

In particular, her habitual way of speaking to Welt, treating him like a younger child, really made it seem as if Joyce was showing concern for Welt through this child.

Welt's heart skipped a beat, and his mouth opened instinctively, only to be filled with the jelly that Ninti had stuffed into his mouth.

Ninti blinked and asked in a soft, childish voice:

"Is it good? I didn't eat any because there weren't many available, so I don't know if it's expired..."

"Don't worry, it hasn't gone bad, it's very sweet!"

The sweetness made Welt feel that his physical pain and weakness had suddenly improved a lot.
