"Aili, do you believe me?"
"I do, but..."
"Then it's settled. The Thirteen Flame-Chasers. And I'll be the only reserve member. No matter what you need, you can come to me for help. Like... the little black guy downstairs."
"Hm?"
The little black guy downstairs?
Aili didn't understand what that nickname meant.
Yet, this arrangement somehow felt familiar to Aili.
She seemed to have dreamed of someone who could fulfill any wish as well, an... unofficial member from within a dream.
"Honestly, you're so annoying. Why are you so stubborn?" Aili thought for a moment but still couldn't remember what felt familiar, so she flew into embarrassed anger and directly pressed Chen Luo's head into her chest.
The Luo-in-Arms Smothering Kill!
Just shut up already!
"You can insist on being an unofficial member, or Number Zero, if you want. But I can't forgive you that easily. Since you said you're willing to provide any help, you'd better actually do it." After successfully shutting Chen Luo up, Aili voiced her request.
"Being able to do everything might be asking too much of you, but at the very least, everyone should be able to eat happily and drink happily. So you'll be in charge of logistics... a bar? Something like that will do."
"Mm, what should we call the bar?"
"The Flame-Chasers Bar? The Fire Moth Bar? Neither sounds quite right..."
"Since you insist on being Number Zero, let's call it the Number Zero Bar."
"No, that name doesn't sound very good. Let's call it Zero Bar instead."
"Mm, very good. Since Luoluo, you haven't objected either, it's settled." Aili nodded in satisfaction.
"Rather than the bar, Aili... shouldn't you be more concerned about whether Chen Luo has been suffocated to death?" Vill-V raised a hand from the side and spoke quietly.
