Firefly: "Come on a Date with Me"
The names and criminal records of the people under his command are numerous and detailed.
Never mind...
Let's see if marrying Firefly will solve the problem by giving her a pair of jewelry.
Let's put that issue aside.
Lin Shuang glanced at the last travel invitation and subconsciously rubbed her still slightly sore thighs.
If I had invited her earlier, I might have gone.
Now...
Lin Shuang was so tired she just wanted to sleep.
Thinking this, just as Lin Shuang was about to reply to Firefly's message...
Acheron suddenly leaned closer and whispered in Lin Shuang's ear:
"I thought about it while I was washing up earlier. Now that your safety can be guaranteed and I can rush to your side at any time, there's not much point in staying on the Xianzhou any longer."
"Um?"
Lin Shuang was stunned for a moment, then turned her head and almost kissed Acheron on the face.
Are you planning to leave?
"Yes, since your new ability is so convenient, I won't even need to sleep outdoors anymore when I'm out and about."
Acheron smiled, gently pinched Lin Shuang's cheek with her fingers, and continued:
"When it's time to rest, just call my name and I'll come to your side. After resting, you can send me back to where I was. It's a very convenient skill."
"..."
I understand.
Acheron is treating himself like a mobile hotel.
Travel freely during the day, and when it's time to sleep, let yourself shout out, "Sister Acheron!"
Call this person back and let them lie comfortably in their room and sleep soundly.
Finally, I had to return it to the person myself early the next morning.
How novel! What am I interested in?
Do I, Lin Shuang, not have any dignity if I have to call her "Sister Acheron" every single day?!
Perhaps it was because Lin Shuang's gaze was too direct that Acheron immediately understood what she was trying to express.
"Didn't you just say you wanted to strengthen the Power of the Permanence as soon as possible? How can I help you if I don't come back every day?"
"..."
Lin Shuang initially thought there was some truth to this, but then she realized that it was clearly targeting her.
Okay, okay, so you want to play it this way?
So you're starting to use the GPU on me now, huh?
Hateful.
Lin Shuang's back molars were all clenched.
She couldn't very well ask Acheron to put aside his own affairs and stay by her side forever.
But wouldn't that leave us vulnerable to the clutches of the Acheron?
If I start calling her "sister" every day from now on, won't I be doomed to never have a chance to turn my life around?
"... Tell me honestly, do you just want to hear me call you 'sister'?"
Lin Shuang looked at Acheron suspiciously. She found it hard not to suspect that the reason this person made such a suggestion was simply to get her to call him "sister."
All that talk about helping her cultivate path of The Permanence is just empty talk.
Acheron was speechless, and with a smile, he raised his hand and poked Lin Shuang's forehead.
Do you want me to help you?
"... want."
However, relying on the power of The Nihility to cultivate the Permanence really leads to rapid progress.
Rather, if she didn't cultivate in this way, Lin Shuang wouldn't know how to fulfill her Path of the Permanence.
Oh well, I'll just grit my teeth and get through it. A younger, more aggressive guy is a classic setup, isn't it?
Acheron had gotten used to Lin Shuang's tendency to talk a lot but do little.
"Get some rest."
"Um."
Lin Shuang nodded, picked up her phone, and prepared to reply to Firefly's message before going to sleep.
[Lin Shuang: I just saw this. Sorry, I don't have time today. If Firefly doesn't mind, can I come visit you tomorrow? I'll also bring you the rest of the cake rolls.]
A little while later, Firefly's reply came:
[Firefly: Okay, I understand. Thank you for the gift, thank you so much.]
[Firefly: [Paimon's heart emoji]]
[Firefly: It's not much of a repayment, but I'll take you on a date tomorrow~]
Upon seeing Firefly's reply, Lin Shuang couldn't help but smile.
[Lin Shuang: I'll look forward to it, but I'll have to trouble Silver Wolf tomorrow too.]
[Firefly: It's alright, Silver Wolf won't mind.]
At the same time.
The Silver Wolf, held up by Kafka's armpits, couldn't reach the ground with its short legs, and even with its outstretched hands, it couldn't touch Firefly's phone.
"Damn it! Who said I don't mind! Let me speak, give me your phone!!"
Firefly was a little embarrassed, while Kafka smiled and said:
"Honey, even if you make a mistake and lose your first kiss, you don't have to be so angry and cry."
"I didn't cry or make a scene!!"
Volume 1: Chapter 118 Firefly: Come Date Me
The next day.
Acheron got up relatively early; when he did, Lin Shuang was still lying on the bed, too lazy to move.
Rubbing her eyes in the sunlight, Lin Shuang sat up, half-closing, and looked at Acheron had already changed his clothes.
"... So early? Shouldn't you have some breakfast first?"
"You almost never have the habit of eating breakfast."
As Acheron straightened his clothes, he looked down at Lin Shuang with a smile.
If this person has nothing to do, he usually doesn't get up until almost noon, and he doesn't have the habit of eating breakfast.
"Besides, he comes back every night, so there's really no need to worry too much."
Lin Shuang vaguely remembered that there seemed to be such a thing.
So she nodded, and then couldn't help but let out a big yawn.
"Ha--you're right. How about I send you back to that desolate planet we met before? That way we can save some time."
At this point, Lin Shuang suddenly burst out laughing:
"Speaking of which... ever since you met me, you've taken so many wrong turns. You've wasted so much time by my side. I wonder if you'll still have time to go to Penacony?"
Acheron smiled slightly upon hearing this.
"There's still time, as long as it's before the Charmony Festival."
Seeing Acheron nod, Lin Shuang suddenly realized that she hadn't asked her yet why she wanted to go to the Charmony Festival.
"Come to think of it... I don't think I've ever asked you why you wanted to go to Penacony?"
Acheron thought about it, and her Remembrance of this period was quite clear. She definitely hadn't said why she wanted to go to Penacony.
"It's definitely not mentioned. Do you want to know?"
Is it convenient to talk about it?
"There's nothing I can't tell you, it's just a long story. To put it simply, I'm returning the belongings of a Galaxy Ranger from Penacony."
"Relics?"
Lin Shuang blinked. Wasn't Acheron there for the Clockmaker's Legacy?
Where should these relics be returned? To Penacony?
Acheron nodded slightly, and his clothes were now all tidied up.
"The detailed story is quite long and rather boring. If you're curious, I'll tell you about it another time."
"... I understand, we'll talk about it another time."
Lin Shuang nodded, and with a hint of doubt, raised her hand to open the Portal to that Barren Planet.
After watching Acheron disappear into the room, he lay back down.
I slept until noon.
After dawdling in bed, Lin Shuang sent a message to Firefly.
Before a reply could be received, Portal a Silver Wolf appeared.
However, before Lin Shuang could step inside, the Portal suddenly sprouted legs and jumped up, swallowing Lin Shuang whole.
This teleportation experience wasn't very good.
Lin Shuang felt like she had been stuffed into a washing machine, tumbling wildly in the Teleportation Gate.
If it weren't for his excellent physical condition and the fact that he didn't encounter any danger at all...
Lin Shuang almost teleported herself back.
Suddenly, her eyes lit up, and Lin Shuang was sprawled out on the spacious sofa.
Silver Wolf stood to the side, holding a handheld game console, his little feet propped up on the coffee table, and the earring he had received yesterday still hanging from his earlobe.
Seeing Lin Shuang's disheveled appearance, he chuckled and whistled.
"Oh, you're here?"
"Alright! I knew Silver Wolf, you were doing this on purpose!"
Lin Shuang stood up, grabbed a cushion, and threw it at the Silver Wolf.
However, the afterimage flickered, and the pillow, unsurprisingly, hit nothing.
"... Seriously? You use a projector even when you're out having fun?"
"Who goes out to play? I spent most of last night with Sam, and she dragged me out to do free work for you as soon as I woke up this morning."
After regaining his vision, Silver Wolf gave Lin Shuang a merciless glare.
"I'm going to make up for last night's portion. You go play with Sam by yourself."
After saying that, he seemed to have thought of something else.
Subconsciously, I raised my hand and touched the blue gemstone on my earring:
"Tonight... if you have time, come play games with me!"
After saying that, Silver Wolf's image disappeared completely.
Then, Firefly, who had been covering her mouth and chuckling to herself, finally spoke up.
Firefly stood up gracefully and politely, placed one hand on her chest, and bowed slightly to Lin Shuang.
