Chappy and Alexander
Yuxian couldn't help but roll her eyes. "Then why don't you go eat some fried beans!"
The children weren't shy at all and started running around in the spacious villa.
The housekeeper very considerately went to look after the child and did not continue to disturb them.
Raphael asked with a smile, "What do you think of Heaven? Do you want to stay?"
"In no mood!"
Yuxian answered without hesitation; having experienced paradise, he had no attachment to this place whatsoever.
Putting everything else aside, the fact that he didn't even meet the parents of Gabriel and Raphael's families shows that this is definitely not an easy place.
Aside from the pleasant environment, Yuxian couldn't find any other redeeming qualities in Paradise, which was quite disappointing.
"Don't all humans want to come to heaven?" Raphael continued to ask.
Yuxian didn't answer directly; instead, he asked, "So Raphael, do you think Heaven is better or the Human World is better?"
Raphael smiled without saying a word, but this time Yuxian noticed a difference in her expression; clearly, she didn't think Heaven was more interesting than the Human World.
Like Gabriel, Raphael prefers life in the Human World, only Gabriel's preference is more obvious.
After chatting for a while, the butler came to remind her, "Miss, dinner is ready."
He led everyone to the restaurant, where a long table was placed in the center of the large restaurant, big enough to seat a large group of people.
The dining environment is upscale, but it lacks warmth and instead feels cold.
The tabletop was spotless, and the tableware was arranged as if it had been measured; this was truly a different story from what one would expect from a wealthy family.
However, if he had Yuxian, he preferred the ambiance of the Chaldea restaurant.
A group of people huddled together, making a racket and scrambling to get a bite, actually makes the meal feel more enjoyable.
The dinner was exquisite and tasted fine, but it just didn't feel right.
This is probably because Yuxian lacks that kind of temperament and doesn't know how to enjoy an elegant meal.
After dinner, the butler thoughtfully prepared rooms for everyone to rest in.
This kind of life, where everything is prepared for you, is indeed comfortable, but also very boring.
Yuxian began to understand why Raphael always liked to find interesting things; it was probably because she had been too bored since childhood.
The differences in lifestyle between Raphael and Gabriel's families are enormous, but there is one thing they are exactly the same about.
There was also no entertainment.
Even in a dog-loving household like Raphael's, Yuxian still didn't see any decent entertainment facilities.
The entertainment regulations in Paradise seem to be really strict.
There wasn't much fun to do, so everyone went to bed early, hoping that more fun things would happen when they went to hell tomorrow.
Yuxian's experience in Heaven greatly reduced his expectations of Hell.
The two places, separated by only a line, are unlikely to be too different.
Goodbye, Human World!
Raphael escorted everyone to the exit of Heaven and said goodbye. They still had several days of vacation left and wouldn't be returning to the Human World so soon.
The next meeting will be when they start school.
Leaving paradise, we returned to the crossroads.
Yuxian saw Vignette waiting there early in the morning.
Vignette happily led everyone on the road to hell, talking incessantly as they walked.
The scenery here is very different from that of paradise, with all sorts of unknown plants, rugged hillsides, and loosely placed signs.
Compared to the strict cleanliness of paradise, this place seems very casual.
The differences between the two sides are really big, especially after comparison.
The sensory experience of going from heaven to hell is very distinct.
It's not a matter of which is better, but rather a difference in style; angels and demons have different understandings of life.
Vignette's house is also a small house in the countryside, and it doesn't look much different from Gabriel's house.
As soon as she entered, her parents came out to greet everyone, and they were very welcoming.
Indeed, Mingfeng is simple and honest, no wonder Vignette has such a personality, which is probably derived from her parents.
"Excuse me!"
"Come in and sit down!" Vignette's mother invited everyone into the house. "Vignette, quickly pour everyone some tea."
The overly enthusiastic hospitality made Yuxian feel a little embarrassed, and he repeatedly declined.
The children had already run out to play as usual; they're not the type to sit still.
They quickly ran back in, pulling Yuxian aside and saying, "Master, Master, we've found a very big dog."
Yuxian glanced at Vignette.
Vignette explained, "That's Chabi..."
Her forehead was covered in black lines. "When I brought it home, it was only a tiny little thing. I never expected it to grow so big in less than a year."
Chabi is a baby monster that Vignette found on the road. At first, Chabi was only the size of a palm, but now it is almost as tall as a house.
This was something Vignette hadn't anticipated. She was quite shocked when she returned, only to realize how quickly magical beasts had grown.
The children asked, "Can we play with it?"
"It should be fine, Chabi is quite obedient." Vignette was a little uncertain. She had only just returned and didn't know Chabi's specific habits.
The children, granted permission, flocked out to play with Chabi. They weren't afraid of monsters at all; on the contrary, they found them adorable.
"Be careful!" Yuxian quickly reminded them.
Section 417, Chapter 46: Chap and Alexander
The children stood before Chabi, looking at the tall and mighty Chabi.
"Will it bite?" Abby looked at Chabi with some concern. She was a child who was afraid of dogs and had always been afraid of them, without even knowing why.
"No, didn't Sister Vignette say it's very well-behaved?"
Gretel wasn't afraid of these large animals at all; on the contrary, she liked them very much. She looked at them from left to right, almost reaching out to touch them.
Brush!
Jack was much more direct than her; as soon as he couldn't see Chabby, he jumped onto its back and reached out to pet its head.
Chabi was startled and showed a fierce look, but it quickly lay down and obediently accepted being petted, its little tail wagging rapidly, clearly enjoying Jack stroking its head.
Everyone was relieved and gathered around to stroke it.
"It's so soft and comfortable."
Everyone was touching Chabi, but Abby stood a little further away; she still hadn't overcome her fear.
"Abby, don't be afraid, come and try it, it feels very comfortable."
Seeing Abby's frightened expression, her friends tried to comfort her and tell her not to be afraid.
Abby walked over cautiously, his hand trembling as he reached out and touched Chabi's body, then quickly withdrew his hand, not daring to linger.
Even so, she has finally overcome her fear of dogs, which is a rare step forward for Abby.
At that moment, Chabi suddenly turned his head and looked at Abby.
This terrified Abby. In her haste, she backed away several times, accidentally tripped and fell to the ground, her face showing a look of impending tears.
Chabi brought her head close to Chabi's face, and when Abby saw Chabi's gaping maw getting closer and closer, Abby closed her eyes and trembled with fear.
She dared not look any longer, burying her head in the sand like an ostrich, remaining motionless, thinking to herself: Am I going to be eaten?
Slurp!
Chabi licked Abby's face.
The wet feeling gave Abby a creepy feeling, but she soon realized that Chabi didn't make any further moves.
She slowly opened her eyes and saw that Chabi's head was still in front of her, looking at her curiously.
"Abby, don't be afraid, Chabi seems to like you a lot."
Do you like me?
Abby asked uncertainly.
Slurp!
Chabi licked Abby's face again, making Abby's face all wet.
This time, Abby felt much better than before, and her fear lessened considerably.
Abby slowly got up from the ground and dusted himself off.
She tried to get a little closer to Chabi and reached out to touch its head.
Chabi obediently lowered his head in front of her and accepted her caresses.
Abby was completely relieved. She gently stroked Chabi's soft fur, which felt very comfortable.
"Let's take it for a walk," someone suggested.
The suggestion was agreed upon by everyone, and they took Chabi for a walk, or rather, it would be more appropriate to say that Chabi took them for a walk.
They took turns sitting on Chabi's back, and it carried them along the roads of the Demon Realm.
Coincidentally, Satania was also taking a walk with her pet Alexander at that moment, and they met on the road.
Satania stared in disbelief at the enormous Chabi. "Where did you get such a huge magical beast?"
The children explained, "Its name is Chabby, and it's Sister Vignette's pet!"
"Chabi?" Satania knew, of course, that Vignette had a pet named Chabi; Vignette had mentioned it to them more than once.
But according to Vignette, Chabi is very small, small enough to be held in one's hands.
The enormous thing in front of her clearly did not match her imagination.
She was furious and said indignantly, "That Vignette dared to lie to us! Alexander, let's go find her and settle the score! As the familiar of the Great Demon Satania, you must not be outdone by a mere monster."
"Alexander? Alexander!"
Satania suddenly saw that her pet Alexander was lying motionless on the ground and immediately called out anxiously.
Alexander is under immense pressure right now. Just like that kind of size that looks tough to deal with, as a pet, it used its inherent skill: playing dead!
"Vignette!" Satania rushed in, demanding an explanation.
"So that's the Chaplin you were talking about, only the size of a palm?"
Vignette laughed awkwardly, unsure how to explain. She had always thought Chabi was the same size as when she found it, so that's how she described it to her friends.
Now, being questioned by Satania like this, Vignette felt helpless; she never expected that Chabi would grow up so quickly.
Satania was very unwilling to accept that her pet Alexander had died in just one round, which made her feel terrible. She secretly decided that she must train Alexander properly when she got back.
Satania decided that Alexander must defeat Chabi when they meet again.
Alexander said: This is too difficult for me.
After spending quite some time at Vignette's house, they happened to arrive at Satania as well, Yuxian decided to visit Satania's home.
They said goodbye to Vignette's parents and were taken to her home by Satania.
Satania lives in a two-story duplex house.
The first floor is a shop; the Satania family runs a pastry shop, which is their livelihood.
