Supergod: Myriad Worlds Drifting Bottle

A wage slave.

What about the cutest one?

Feishi.

So.

Han Fei broke into a broad smile.

"Ha ha ha, Hexi—ah, no, Hexi."

"Your name is Hexi..."

She murmured the name under her breath.

After glancing at Han Fei, she let go of the faint wariness that had just arisen in her heart.

She had not finished what she was about to say earlier. In truth, she had not lost all her memories. At the very least, she vaguely remembered that she seemed, perhaps, maybe, to be called Hexi.

When she heard that name, her instincts told her it seemed to be her name.

Well, probably.

So.

This person seemed trustworthy.

Strangely enough, she did not know why she still had such instincts despite her amnesia. It felt as though she had once been deceived by a sister she had known for a long time?

"Hexi—the He is the He from white crane, and the Xi is the Xi from stream. Remember, it's the Xi from stream."

Han Fei said.

Hexi nodded solemnly.

"You're actually an alien. Well, a former alien."

She listened quietly, with no intention of interrupting.

"I don't actually know what kind of alien you are. I only know that you seemed to have enemies, suffered severe injuries, and fell onto this planet."

Hexi's gaze grew increasingly solemn upon hearing that.

Enemies?

Gravely injured?

It sounded strangely familiar. It seemed to be true.

Then who were my enemies?

Had they already come after me?

"I found you in a river."

"At the time, I saw someone floating in the river, so I swam over and pulled them out. That person was you. Afterward, I took you in at my home so you could recover from your injuries, and used my family's magic array to conceal your whereabouts. After spending some time together, you told me some things about yourself, and that was how I learned you were an alien."

"Oh, right. You never told me which planet you were from."

Hexi nodded unconsciously.

But she was somewhat doubtful inside.

Would I really have told him so easily?

Completely unaware that she herself had been quite candid just moments ago.

"After that, to repay me, you decided to work for me."

Things seemed to be getting strange.

?

Hexi was puzzled.

Yet she still did not speak, listening quietly.

"I couldn't refuse, so I could only agree. And so, you became my secretary and worked for me all along."

"Of course, because of your identity, you've always lived here with me and never went out at all. I suppose it was to avoid your enemies?"

"Even when you did go out, you had to drag me along. You insisted on being inseparable from me."

"I get it. You didn't feel safe, and I have certain shielding abilities that could protect you. But you couldn't keep clinging to me forever, could you?"

Han Fei wore an utterly speechless expression as he looked to the heavens.

Hexi felt a little embarrassed.

She had not expected to have left that kind of impression on him before losing her memories.

Wait.

Then why did I lose my memories?

Her beautiful face creased slightly as her delicate brows furrowed.

Chapter 29: Sweet-Talking Hexi or Something—I'm Innocent!

Han Fei shook his head, looking like someone who had been wronged.

"As for your amnesia, you usually liked joking around with me, so I didn't pay much attention to it. But actually, it should have been caused by what happened a few days ago."

"Uh..."

Han Fei stammered.

Damn!

What if I can't keep making this up?

No, I have to tie her down somehow. Otherwise, this will turn into a huge disaster!

Whatever.

Han Fei considered himself fairly quick-witted.

The words came right out of his mouth.

"Maybe it was because feelings grew over time. I noticed that your attitude toward me was a little off. Yes, I took good care of you, but you're an alien after all. I couldn't really accept that."

Han Fei looked a little embarrassed as he said this, making it seem quite believable.

"So I turned you down tactfully. After that, you ran away from home in a fit of anger. You were gone for several days. I kept looking for you, and I only found you again today. Luckily, although your brain suffered a bit of damage, it wasn't anything serious. And what I said just now was because I thought you were messing with me again."

"After all, you usually liked fooling around with me too. Sigh..."

As he spoke, he shook his head helplessly, his expression carrying a faint sense of wistfulness and emotion.

Yet his eyes unconsciously darted toward her.

As expected.

Hexi had frozen completely.

She looked at Han Fei blankly, then at herself.

Finally, she looked at her battered armor.

Her fair fingers pointed at herself, then at Han Fei.

Then she stared at her scarred armor.

Could it be that I really fought someone before?

Was everything he said true?

After briefly thinking through the logic—

I really must have encountered an enemy after running away from home, without his protection and concealment.

That was why I fought.

That was why I lost my memory.

Following the direction Han Fei had given her, Hexi gradually began to believe what he said.

But feelings growing over time...

Looking at Han Fei, Hexi didn't feel that way about him.

"Don't worry, Hexi. I'll do my best to help you recover your memories. You don't need to be afraid."

Seeing that Hexi seemed to have been fooled, Han Fei inwardly let out a sigh of relief.

"Let's get acquainted again. I'm Han Fei."

He held out his hand.

Hexi timidly extended hers and took Han Fei's hand.

"I'm... Hexi."

At that moment.

She was Hexi, not Hexi.

"Mm."

"Oh, right. Whatever happens next, you absolutely must not leave my side again."

"Mm-hmm."

Hexi nodded repeatedly like a little girl, with no intention of arguing at all.

Seeing her like this, Han Fei felt slightly dazed.

An ancient monster had been sweet-talked into a little girl by me.

Hiss.

What was with this sense of guilt?

It wasn't like I was deceiving someone mentally disabled!

I'm innocent!

Yes.

I'm innocent!

Han Fei covered his chest, feeling as if it had gone a little dark inside.

Right.

If he was going to put on an act, he had to see it through.

He silently looked at his phone.

Hexi probably couldn't even use the Eye of Insight now. Otherwise, she wouldn't be this clueless.

So.

Han Fei pretended to answer a call.

He ended it at lightning speed.

When he turned back, he found Hexi frowning at his phone.

Thump, thump.

"..."

Gulp.

"You..."

"You use this thing to communicate?"

Phew~

Han Fei forced a smile. "Yeah. Why?"

"I vaguely remember this kind of communication being very outdated, but I can't remember anything more advanced."
