Ptilopsis's New Goal in Life / Exusiai: "Where Are My Snacks?"

[By the time you see this note, the great Herrscher of Reason should already be gone. The money and wallet are yours for the night you spent away.]

[By the way, make sure you use this wallet carefully. If you dare lose it, no matter where you are in the world, I'll bring you a taste of your Out of Touch!]

----A message from the great Lady of Herrscher of Reason.

"..."

After reading the note, Rope stared at the wallet she thought was ugly and fell into complete silence.

Well, when she saw "[Here's the money for you]", she was overjoyed, but when she saw "[Let me do it again]", she remembered what happened last night, and her hands trembled.

"How could there be such a strange person... Oh well, let's just consider it a not-so-pretty gift." Rope muttered helplessly as he came to his senses.

"But... this should count as the first gift I've ever received, right?" With that, Rope stood up, put the note back in her wallet, and then carefully put the wallet away close to her body.

After doing all this, she turned and left the place.

P. S.: The initial adjustment period for the new paper was so difficult. I had an outline and I knew exactly what to write, but I still got stuck. I revised a single sentence several times, and my writing speed was as slow as a snail's pace.

Chapter 3 Pardofelis's New Life Goals

"Old relic, I'm back."

Back in her hotel room, Senti waved to Hua, who was sitting by the floor-to-ceiling window drinking tea.

"Yes, welcome back."

Upon hearing this, Hua put down his teacup and gave the person a slight smile.

"Hehe, I've already unlocked that Pardofelis guy after just one night." As she spoke, Senti, with a face full of praise for me, also sat down by the French windows.

"Hmm, Senti is very capable." Hua glanced at Senti, poured her a cup of tea, and then praised her slowly and skillfully.

"Of course!"

After listening to Hua's words, Senti nodded in satisfaction, then picked up the teacup in front of him and drank the tea in one gulp.

"..."

Looking at the childlike Senti in front of him, Hua shook his head helplessly, then said softly, "Now that you're back, let's summon Pardofelis."

"Alright."

Upon hearing this, Senti nodded slightly, having no objection to Hua's suggestion.

After all, she didn't dislike Pardofelis; in fact, she even wanted her to "betray" Kevin and become her underling.

With Senti, a faint light appeared in the room, and then a figure that both of them were very familiar with appeared before them.

"Hey hey, long time no see, Hua!"

Meow~

"Long time no see, Pardofelis still has Canned Food."

Hua looked at the smiling girl and cat waving at him and responded softly.

"?"

What about me!?

During the harmonious and friendly exchange between the two sides, Senti, who was sitting to the side and felt ignored, got angry. She slammed her hand on the table and looked at Pardofelis.

"Oh dear, what a terrible memory I have. Senti, right? Let me introduce myself. My name is Pardofelis Pardofelis. You can call me Felis, whichever you prefer."

Although she knew the person in front of her, out of politeness and to build a good relationship so she could easily curry favor, Pardofelis still gave a proper self-introduction.

"Senti? You should call me the great Herrscher of Reason!" Senti corrected, somewhat displeased, after hearing Pardofelis's words.

"Um... this name is fine too."

Faced with Senti's correction, Pardofelis blinked her beautiful heterochromatic eyes and agreed. To her, it was just a form of address, and she didn't care about it at all.

"Hmm? Then say it out loud and let me hear it!"

Senti, who had been rejected many times regarding how to address someone, was taken aback when she heard Pardofelis Duo's answer. Then, her eyes lit up as she looked at her.

"The great Herrscher of Reason? Actually, I think that's a pretty cool title..."

"Right! Right! I think so too, but the old folks don't like to call me that."

"Perhaps it's because Hua has a rather introverted personality?"

Hua sipped her tea quietly, watching the two "kids" getting along so well, a hint of helplessness and a smile in her eyes.

Finally, under Senti's reluctant gaze, Pardofelis chose to separate from him.

The reason is probably because it's more liberating and you don't need to worry about others.

Of course, because they hit it off immediately and got along very well, before leaving, Senti not only said she would look after Pardofelis, but also gave her several sets of clothes that she had bought yesterday.

Out of concern for the safety of this new underling, he even gave him the [Out of Touch, Destroy Jade and Stone] weapon for self-defense.

Because of the gift, Pardofelis didn't hold back in addressing Senti, from "Senti" and "Great Herrscher of Reason" at the beginning to "Boss" at the end, making Xiaoshi very happy.

"It's unfamiliar, but such a big city! I'm sure I can find a lot of goods here." Strolling through the streets of Lungmen and looking at the surrounding skyscrapers, Pardofelis couldn't help but sigh.

Although the cat currently has no shortage of food or money, she still wants to explore this bustling city that originally only existed in the game.

"But instead of wandering Canned Food here, let's go to the slums first."

Meow~

Then, Pardofelis spent almost a day figuring out the distribution and general situation of the various areas of Lungmen.

As for why it's only a rough estimate, it's because today, the cat's time and focus were mainly on exploring the slums.

After all, compared to the towering skyscrapers and bustling unfamiliar city, the somewhat dirty and chaotic slums were more familiar and comfortable to Pardofelis.

However, after exploring it herself, Pardofelis truly understood the appalling state of the slums... The filth and chaos were bad enough, but the real problem was the sheer variety of people and things that mingled inside...

What the cat saw and heard inside today made her secretly make a decision.

That is, once she has money and goods to purchase supplies, she will help those in need here within her own capabilities, just like how "Pardofelis" helped those in need on [Twilight Alley] in her memory.

"Speaking of which, now that I'm in a different world, shouldn't I expand my life's achievements a bit?"

Sitting crouched on the rooftop of a building, gazing at the countless false stars, Pardofelis suddenly seemed to remember something and muttered to herself.

Meow~~

"Ah, you also think the Canned Food should be expanded? Let me take a look." With that, Pardofelis took out the treasure chest that came with her when she unlocked the device from her spatial storage, and then took out a small notebook with the words "Pardofelis O Life Achievements Overview" written on it.

The cat opened the notebook, its gaze sweeping over the rows of "Pardofelis's " original life goals, and muttered to itself:

"The last few steps might be a bit harder to complete, but the earlier ones can be reset."

As soon as she finished speaking, Pardofelis changed the marked "[Collect all the coins of all the patterns]" and "[Collect all the types of Canned Food fast food]" from "Completed" to "Incomplete".

"Alright, we have a new target! In that case, let's get started with the Canned Food."

After making the changes, Pardofelis slammed her notebook shut, stood up excitedly, pointed to the bustling city in front of her, and said to the Canned Food beside her.

"Meow!"

Upon hearing this, the chubby Canned Food chirped in agreement and then jumped onto Pardofelis's shoulder, looking ready.

"Hold on tight to the Canned Food, let's go."

From then on, Pardofelis embarked on her journey of collecting and sourcing goods in the bustling city of Lungmen.

P. S.: Only one update today. I need to adjust my condition; I'm having a lot of lag and not feeling well. Of course, I owe a total of four updates so far from the event, and I will make up for it before the event ends on October 7th, otherwise it would be a real loss.

Chapter 4 Exusiai: "Where are my snacks?"

At night, on a quiet, deserted street, an SUV was parked silently.

"We've got the goods, let's go back." A Sankta girl with short red hair and a halo smiled and shook the box in her hand, saying to her companion who was waiting by the car door.

"Okay, get in the car."

The girl, Lupo, who was leaning against the car door, responded briefly, then turned around, opened the door, and got into the driver's seat.

"They've arrived."

After saying that, the red-haired girl skillfully walked to the other side, opened the car door, and got in.

Then, the car sped off, leaving the deserted street in the dust.

However, no one noticed that after the car drove away with its passengers, a figure landed lightly and silently where the car had been parked.

On the car that's driving away right now-

"It's rare to Exusiai pick up the goods today, how does it feel?" The horned girl with orange hair, sitting in the back seat, asked with a smile to the short-haired girl with red hair sitting in the passenger seat.

"It feels alright, but I think it would feel even better if the [light] above our heads could be turned off." As she spoke, the red-haired girl, known as Exusiai, shrugged helplessly.

Normally, Exusiai usually responsible for covering her companions, and she almost never gets to do things like moving cargo.

This time, because the cargo was relatively small, she simply had a sudden idea to give it a try.

"It is indeed quite bright at night."

Upon hearing this, the orange-haired Forte girl glanced at the bright halo above Exusiai's head and nodded.

After some time, the three of them returned to their logistics company, [Penguin Logistics], with the goods they had picked up that evening.

Normally, except for special orders, they generally don't bring goods back to the company, because most of the time they arrange the time in advance and then deliver them directly.

This time, coincidentally, it's a special order, so the goods will be temporarily stored at [Penguin Logistics] and delivered later.

"Ah~ Now that everything's stored away, I'm going to rest." Croissant said to her companions with a yawn as she came out of the room where the goods were stored.

"Me too... Seeing you Croissant, Croissant, suddenly made me feel sleepy too." As if infected, Exusiai, who was standing next to her, couldn't help but yawn as well.

"It's time to rest."

"..."

After chatting for a few more minutes, they quickly went about their business, as they were all tired after a long day.

As for why no one keeps watch at night... well, it's simply because there's no need.

Although on the surface [Penguin Logistics] does not appear to be a large enterprise with a small workforce, as an underground logistics organization capable of delivering anything, its relationships and interests are incredibly complex, and it also possesses a private armed force.

In this situation, almost no one would dare to steal or cause trouble. Even if they did, they would be held accountable or even hunted down.

So, after storing the goods in the corresponding safes according to their categories, the team members went back to rest with peace of mind.

However, the above only applies to general cases...

In the dead of night, when all was dark, a figure crept stealthily and silently into the building of Penguin Logistics.

"This is really hard to keep up with..."

The figure's owner muttered something under her breath, then used her heterochromatic eyes, which glowed faintly in the darkness, to look around carefully, searching intently.

As for who was the figure sneaking into [Penguin Logistics] at night, needless to say, it was none other than Pardofelis, who sneaked in at night to pick up goods...

However, the cat didn't initially plan to stock up on the goods; instead, it was collecting coins it had never seen before.

However, the halo above someone's head was too conspicuous in the darkness, immediately attracting the Pardofelis, who happened to be nearby at the time...

Then, the cat couldn't resist eavesdropping and became extremely interested in the goods Exusiai was talking about. That's how this shopping trip came about.

Although it sounds easy, it actually took Pardofelis quite a bit of effort to get here.

"Um..."

Having evaded all security measures and even blurred the security cameras, Pardofelis is now deep in thought, staring at a row of combination locks in front of her.
