Black-Eyed Freeloader

Hearing the call, Lingxi kicked a small stone into the sea, turned around, and jogged towards the group.

In the blink of an eye

Three days have passed.

During this time, Ling Yuan handed over the herbal game of Honkai Impact 3rd to Han Li.

I also learned that Bilibili is ready and will completely replace the original page next Friday.

We are currently doing preliminary promotion.

Upon receiving this news, Ling Yuan naturally returned home satisfied.

However, a small incident occurred after we returned.

It wasn't that Han Yurou suddenly came to catch them cheating, but rather... Xia Ranran moved in.

Ling Yuan had previously promised to tell Xia Ranran about him.

But some things can be said and some things cannot.

Ling Yuan only told Xia Ranran about his Contract Beast Bella and his accidental travel to other worlds.

Of course, he didn't mention the group chat or the system; he only told the other person that he had the ability to travel between worlds.

He also confessed that he had found Kiana and Himeko from another world.

Then it was Himeko's turn to shine.

As expected of a teacher, she described the two people's experiences as incredibly rugged and arduous, leaving Xia Ranran stunned.

To avoid sleeping on the streets, Himeko really went all out, delivering a moving performance that brought tears to her eyes.

Kiana, standing to the side, was so embarrassed that she wanted to dig out a new room for herself.

She had never heard of many of the language words before.

Clearly, the young and naive Xia Ranran was unaware of her aunt's tricks and expressed deep sympathy after hearing about the two's "tumultuous" lives.

They finally agreed to let them stay at Ling Yuan's house temporarily.

However, the only requirement is that I move in and stay with you at night.

Ling Yuan was watching the show from the sofa, looked completely dumbfounded when he heard the final result of the discussion.

That's it?

What's the difference between this and not negotiating at all?

After this battle, Ling Yuan's house was packed with people.

Just the day before, I was marveling at how many rooms I had, and now so many "wives" have suddenly arrived...

What an incredible coincidence!

Every night, Ophis would often knock Xia Ranran unconscious, then sneak into Ling Yuan's room, and sneak back in the early hours of the morning.

Although others were unaware, Bella had been watching for a long time...

That morning

Ling Yuan sat up in bed, leaned against the headboard, and picked up Belleronus and placed it on his body.

"Bella, breakfast is ready."

As he spoke, Ling Yuan took out a dark yellow core from the System Space and placed it next to Bella's mouth.

Bella, who was still a little dazed, seemed to be stimulated by the energy in the core.

With a quick somersault, she adjusted her posture instantly, looking at the core in Ling Yuan's hand, its four crystals shining brightly.

They look like four bright, piercing eyes, which is quite adorable.

"As expected of the 'food dragon,' it came as soon as it heard about food." Ling Yuan said speechlessly, gently tapping Bella's head.

"Woo~"

As if sensing that its master wasn't too happy, it flapped its little wings and pounced into Ling Yuan's arms.

Rub and rub~

"Alright, stop whining and eat quickly."

Grabbing Belleronus by the neck with one hand, Ling Yuan lifted him up and put him back on the quilt, then handed him the Imaginary Core.

"Awoo!"

Without hesitation, just like when he ate the Plague Gem before, he downed it in one gulp.

Click!

Suddenly

Bella's body developed cracks.

Ling Yuan was startled and quickly picked Bella up, asking, "System, what's going on? Could it be that Bella can't withstand this power?"

"Ding! Master, rest assured, this is the rhythm of evolution."

"Evolution? Isn't it about being encased in an eggshell?"

"Bella was like that before, but with the Plague Gem as a foundation, that situation will no longer occur."

In the system explanation

White light gradually seeped out from the cracks on Bella's body.

Bang!

The silver shell cracked open and vanished into the void as white light.

Bella, who was held in Ling Yuan's hand, grew taller and taller with the help of white light.

Finally, it transformed into a lovely purple figure.

Beside it, an orange weapon resembling a harp floated.

"Ding! Congratulations, Master! Bella has completed her transformation and advanced to the Bella Puppet!"

Ling Yuan: "???"

At this moment, Ling Yuan was in no mood to listen to the system's words. He stared blankly at Bella was sitting slumped in front of him with her legs slumped.

The armed doll is 80 centimeters tall. Although it's called a doll, it's small but complete. (Xin Yan is 163 centimeters tall, Wings of the Phoenix is half her height.)

It's a chibi version of Bella, even cuter than Bella's original human form.

"Owner."

Little Bella smiled, looking absolutely adorable.

Seeing Ling Yuan staring blankly, a flame appeared above Bella's head.

Then, as if remembering something, it turned into '!'.

With her hands pressed against the bed sheet, Bella moved her legs and slowly crawled towards Ling Yuan.

Ling Yuan was also curious about Bella's thoughts, so he didn't make any rash moves.

And so, Bella stopped when she was less than twenty centimeters away from Ling Yuan.

With her small purple eyes looking earnestly at Ling Yuan, Bella said, "Master, from now on, Bella will remove all obstacles for you. Whatever you command, no matter how difficult or dangerous, Bella will accomplish it for you."

After speaking

"MUA~"

She kissed Ling Yuan's profile.

Finally, she sat back down and looked obediently at Ling Yuan.

After being kissed by Bella, Ling Yuan subconsciously touched his face, then glanced at the Bella Puppet in front of him, which was even smaller than Ophis...

In the past, Ling Yuan would have been very happy, but now... his mind was filled with only one thought.

It's too cold now; even Bella won't be able to sleep with him anymore.

Chapter Ninety-Five: The Black Pupil Who Freeloads

"No!"

To protect their last place of return.

Ling Yuan grabbed Bella Puppet by the waist with both hands and pulled her to his front.

Looking at her seriously, he said, "Bella, I'm asking you, can you change back?"

"?"

A question mark appeared above Bella's head.

Why change back? Doesn't her master like her current appearance?

She would always see her sister Ophis and her master doing strange things.

The owner was clearly very happy back then, and she wants to do it with the owner now!

We must not favor one over the other!

"Master, Bella, no!"

Therefore, Bella rejected Ling Yuan.

Ling Yuan was taken aback. "Why?"

"Before, Bella couldn't speak, so she could only quietly watch you and Sister Ophis."

"Cough!"

Ling Yuan coughed awkwardly.

Whether someone has a guilty conscience or not is obvious.

"But now Bella already looks just like her sister Ophis, so Bella wants to do the same things as her master!"

A belief called perseverance shone in his small eyes.

Ling Yuan: "..."

Girl, do you know what terrible things you're saying?

"Then let's discuss this: when there are people around, you can transform into a dragon; when you're alone, you can transform into a puppet, how about that?"

"Thank you, Master."

Bella happily rushed over and hugged Ling Yuan's head.

The fledgling cat pressed against Ling Yuan's face, reached out, and gently patted Bella's back.

Hug the silly child.

Ophis has been exposed, and there's no way he can go back to him, but having learned from the previous mistake, Ling Yuan won't make the same mistake again!

And so, Ling Yuan lay quietly on the bed, holding the doll Bella in his arms.

It seemed as if the core energy had returned, and drowsiness washed over her, causing Bella, who was lying in Ling Yuan's arms, to fall asleep in complete relaxation.

He gently poked Bella's fair cheek and kissed her forehead.

Similarly, Ling Yuan also closed his eyes.

Bored, Ling Yuan joined the group chat, looking for some fun.

Katarina: "Look everyone, this is Ann's new dessert, mmm, it's delicious."

Katarina posted a set of pictures.

It was all exquisite desserts and black tea.

First Prince: "If possible, I would like to receive more books."

Lightning Dragon Slayer: "Have I finished reading the book I gave you before?"

First Prince: "It's very interesting, but difficult to achieve."
