Ark Simulator, Don't I Have No Physical Form? Chapter 229

Pozëmka immediately pulled her phone back from its horizontal position, pretending that she was looking at her phone as if she were looking at the good photos she had just taken, and a happy smile involuntarily appeared on her lips.

At least, getting what she wanted without being discovered made Pozëmka happy, even though only Myrtle was unaware of it.

After parting ways with Su Rui, Myrtle covered her cheeks with her hands, feeling somewhat embarrassed. She sat down next to Su Rui, like an ostrich trying to hide under the table.

Unfortunately, these tables were originally designed for the Durin, so no matter how much she bent over, it wasn't easy for her to hide under them.

"Alright, don't be nervous. Pozëmka didn't say anything, did she?"

Su Rui gently patted Myrtle's shoulder, bringing her back from her daze.

Myrtle slowly lowered her hand from her cheek, looking at Su Rui and Pozëmka with embarrassment:

Why are you all looking at me like that?

Myrtle looked around and finally found an excuse to change the subject from the smiles on Su Rui and Pozëmka's faces.

"It's just because your reaction was cute." Su Rui smiled at Myrtle, then looked at Pozëmka beside her:

What do you think, Pozëmka?

"Yes, of course, your interaction is adorable."

Pozëmka turned off her phone and put it down to prevent Myrtle from suddenly attacking and peeking at the photo of Su Rui and Myrtle kissing that she had just taken on her phone screen.

Although Myrtle's personality probably wouldn't allow her to do that, such caution was necessary for Pozëmka, who was feeling somewhat guilty.

Myrtle was so flustered by Su Rui and Pozëmka's conversation that she was speechless. Her cheeks were flushed and her eyes darted around, but she didn't dare to meet Su Rui and Pozëmka's gaze.

"It's not as exaggerated as you guys make it out to be!"

Myrtle's eyes darted around, then she suddenly pointed to the beach outside, which was now bustling with activity again:

"There are barbecue stalls over there, and it looks like you can even rent a stall to grill your own meat. Shall we go check it out?"

In reality, Myrtle was just trying to escape the awkward and shy situation of being praised from both Su Rui and Pozëmka, and was changing the subject.

However, Su Rui was also quite interested in barbecue, and:

"Speaking of which, the Durin really have a capricious personality. After such a big battle, no one wanted to rest, yet they've already regrouped so quickly."

As she spoke, Su Rui stood up from her seat and extended her hand to Myrtle.

Myrtle was still a little shy, and awkwardly stretched out her hand, only to have it grabbed by the wrist and pulled up by Su Rui:

'We've already kissed, why are you still so shy?'

'These are clearly two different things~ Besides, you obviously kissed me by surprise.'

"Then you don't like it?" Su Rui asked with a smile.

"... It's not that I dislike it, it's just that next time you should have told me in advance."

Myrtle responded to Su Rui in her heart with a little shyness. Su Rui Su Rui and Myrtle walked ahead together, while Pozëmka followed behind Myrtle. Watching the two of them being so cheerful, a smile involuntarily crept onto her lips.

So, Pozëmka followed Su Rui's footsteps and came to Su Rui's other side. Although she didn't seem to be doing anything, she was actually using her tail to occasionally brush Su Rui's calf, reminding Su Rui that she and Su Rui also had an intimate relationship.

This clandestine, somewhat unethical behavior brought a smile to Pozëmka's lips at that moment.

However, at this moment, everyone was happy on the way to the barbecue stall. The Durin, who had been somewhat chaotic due to the attack of the small cars, had rediscovered their fun and were walking happily in the square, playing around with each other.

After her initial shyness, Myrtle became more relaxed, pulling Su Rui's wrist as they led her to the barbecue stall. "Boss, we need to rent a barbecue grill, and some barbecue meat, all kinds, Camel Beast, Lump Beast, and iced milk~"

Su Rui took out the reward from the System Space and handed it to the boss.

Volume 8, Chapter 506: Pozëmka: He Can Surely Take Her Place

Pozëmka, carrying fuel for the barbecue, Su Rui, holding various kinds of barbecue, Myrtle, holding prepared drinks, all walked towards the barbecue stall that Su Rui and her friends had rented.

After all, this is a public place, and Su Rui can't just put things away and then take them out again in front of everyone.

The three of them sat around the barbecue stall. Pozëmka looked at Su Rui and Myrtle, who were snuggling close together, and asked with a smile:

"I'm not very good at grilling meat, so which of you two is better at grilling meat?"

"I'll do it, I'm pretty good at this." Su Rui left Myrtle's side, nuzzled Myrtle's cheek again, and then went to the barbecue stall.

Pozëmka watched Su Rui walk away from Su Rui, the corners of her mouth slightly turned up, then quickly returned to normal.

Su Rui's Scanning Vision did notice Pozëmka's micro-expression. She glanced at Pozëmka's eyes, then poured some charcoal into the barbecue grill, lit it, and then spread it out with tongs.

Then, you wait for the fire to get going before placing the already cut meat on the grill.

Su Rui prefers to eat the grilled meat on a plate, but this time the grilled meat prepared was a variety of different kinds, including skewers and sliced meat.

So, Su Rui took a portion of each and placed them on the grill. While waiting for the charcoal to sizzle and roast the meat, Myrtle, watching Su Rui's focused expression with some curiosity, leaned against the side and asked:

"To be honest, I have no idea what Su Rui went through in the past, but Su Rui must have known about mine through Rhodes Island's files long ago. That's really unfair~"

Upon hearing Myrtle's words, Pozëmka's ears twitched, and she then focused her attention on Su Rui, looking at Su Rui with bright, sparkling eyes.

Su Rui glanced up at Myrtle and Pozëmka's eyes, which were drawn to the secret, but didn't seem to notice their eagerness. He casually said:

"Okay, okay, where do you want to start?"

"Are you really willing to tell me? I want to hear it all from the very beginning! From the very very first time!"

Myrtle's eyes lit up immediately. If the barbecue grill hadn't been so hot, she would have slapped her hands right in front of Su Rui.

"Okay~" Su Rui had no objection, so let's start from the very beginning:

"A long, long time ago, maybe thousands or even tens of thousands of years ago, I should have been born around that time."

"That's too early. And then what?" Myrtle looked at Su Rui with suspicion, but did not continue to question him. Instead, she waited for Su Rui to continue.

"After that, I don't know. Anyway, I must have fallen asleep somewhere, slept for a very, very long time, until I woke up a few months ago... a few months ago for me."

As Su Rui spoke, she placed the first batch of grilled meat and skewers onto three plates and pushed them towards Myrtle and Pozëmka respectively:

"At first I was really at a loss, and a little angry. It all felt like a game, so I wanted to have some fun. At that time I was... living in Vulpisfoglia's mind. She was from Syracuse."

"So what did you do back then? A dare?" Myrtle wasn't too concerned about how many hosts Su Rui had; she was more interested in how many interesting adventures Su Rui had undertaken.

However, Pozëmka thought about it more deeply. She immediately realized that although Su Rui's words were somewhat vague, the fact that Su Rui said "lives in someone's mind" seemed to be true.

In other words, there must be an extremely close relationship between Su Rui and his host. According to Su Rui, he has already had many hosts.

In other words, Su Rui has probably already had very intimate relationships with quite a few people, while Myrtle simply hasn't progressed to that point yet.

Since Su Rui had already had intimate relationships with so many people, and Myrtle was just one of them, Pozëmka felt much relieved of the shame and immorality she had felt earlier.

Myrtle was just one of them, which meant that she could be one of them, so Pozëmka felt that she didn't need to feel ashamed.

Originally, Pozëmka comforted herself with the idea that some female writers like herself could indeed become someone's lover. However, now that she knew this, Pozëmka felt she could relax a bit and there was no need to feel ashamed.

Su Rui casually replied, "Actually, we didn't do anything major. We just eliminated a few targets from our missions, like infiltration and assassinations. In the end, we met someone and left Syracuse together. We were constantly on the run from our families, and then we temporarily settled in the Eastern Kingdom."

While answering, Su Rui took a moment to pick up a skewer of grilled meat and bite off a few pieces:

"If I had to choose, the first adventure was almost the longest, but also arguably the best."

"So, how many friends did you meet during that adventure?" Pozëmka asked, her eyes sparkling, voicing the question that mattered most to her.

"That depends on what level of friendship we're considered, but I guess you're more concerned about the person you'll end up with, right?"

Su Rui gave Pozëmka a meaningful look, then said:

"Two of them, besides Vulpisfoglia, there's Texas. We get along very well, even... a little too well."

"I understand. You should rest too. I'll watch the barbecue."

As Pozëmka spoke, she got up and went to Su Rui's side, stopping Su Rui from continuing. She had already predicted what Su Rui was going to say next, and in order not to affect her mood, Pozëmka gently pushed Su Rui aside.

Although I'm not very good at cooking, I can still help keep an eye on the fire.

If Su Rui continued talking, and if Su Rui went on to describe her intimate relationships with others, it would cause her great pain.

While imitating Su Rui in flipping the grilled meat, Pozëmka changed the subject:

"So, Su Rui, how many kinds of lives have you experienced so far?"

"There are so many kinds, to be honest, I can't even count them all myself. Let me count them carefully."

Su Rui fell into thought, sat down next to Myrtle, slightly raised his chin, and slowly ate the roasted meat.

Pozëmka breathed a sigh of relief, while Myrtle, somewhat impatiently, nudged Su Rui with her shoulder:

"Don't be so rigid. Tell us as you recall, we're getting impatient just waiting."

Pozëmka's slightly upturned lips drooped again, but she couldn't very well just tell Myrtle to get up and help her prepare the roasted meat, could she?

That kind of purpose is too obvious, and it's too easy to see through.

However, compared to hearing Su Rui talk about his intimacy with other people, it was much easier for Pozëmka to accept seeing the two adorable Durin being affectionate together.

Su Rui nodded. "The pizza in Syracuse is amazing, and..."

Volume 8, Chapter 507: It's not advisable to exercise right after eating.

"I never imagined that Knight Tournament would have so many twists and turns."

Myrtle, holding a skewer of grilled meat in one hand and a bottle of wine in the other, leaned on Su Rui's shoulder, eating the grilled meat with a slightly tipsy slurp.

Su Rui talked for a long time about the story from Syracuse to Kazimierz, so she got a little impatient and simply took out her phone and put it aside to speak. She then ate some kebabs and drank some beverages, just like Myrtle.

It's a pity the grill can't automatically grill the meat, otherwise we wouldn't have to take turns grilling.

Pozëmka looked at the somewhat delirious Myrtle, placed the roasted meat from the grill on a plate, sat down on the other side of Su Rui, and while dividing the meat between Su Rui and Myrtle, pressed herself close to Su Rui:

"I didn't realize you'd done so much. Many of the stories are quite captivating and would be perfect for a Ctrip novel."

"I doubt it. There are many illogical parts. Unless you can ignore them, it's not a good novel."

Su Rui casually remarked, glancing at Myrtle, who had already put down the roasted meat in her hand, was asleep with a wine bottle in her other hand and her head resting on his lap. He then focused his attention on Pozëmka and whispered a reminder:

"This is a public place, don't misbehave here."

"Okay... is it alright if we don't have to be here?" Pozëmka smiled and deliberately moved closer to Su Rui, wrapping her large tail around Su Rui's lower back.

Don't deliberately misinterpret my meaning.

Su Rui glanced at Pozëmka with annoyance. Considering that they were still in a public place and she was holding a drink, she didn't try to elbow Pozëmka. Instead, she took a sip of her alcoholic beverage mixed with fruit juice.

"Where do you usually live? Come to think of it, Myrtle and I have already encountered so much on our very first day here."

"I usually live in a small rented apartment. If you have nowhere to stay, you can come along. After all, you seem to be planning to leave and go back to Rhodes Island in a while, right?"

"Hmm, Rhodes Island is a place that pays high salaries. Interested? Actually, it's not just medical; Rhodes Island sometimes takes on rescue missions and such. Maybe you'd be interested?"

Looking into Pozëmka's eyes, Su Rui didn't forget to recruit people for Rhodes Island.

"I'll think about it. Will you be staying at Rhodes Island often?" Pozëmka looked into Su Rui's eyes, as if she were worried that Su Rui was lying.

"I won't stay on Rhodes Island forever, but I will definitely be Rhodes Island often. After all, I know quite a few people on Rhodes Island, and most of them are connected to Rhodes Island."

Saying one thing in a positive or negative way won't increase your persuasiveness.

Pozëmka reached out and pinched Su Rui's cheek, but Su Rui shook her off.

"I said two sentences, two different meanings. Think about it carefully."

Su Rui glanced into Pozëmka's eyes. "Think about it? Tell me what you're thinking first?"

"Rhodes Island seems like a good place. If you go there often, I can definitely agree."

"Then it's settled. When Myrtle and I leave, we'll take you with us."

"Really? You and Myrtle sneaked in through the trunk. What's spacious for Durin might not be so for me."

Pozëmka winked at Su Rui and asked with a smile, "You're not going to make me hide in the box with you guys to go back, are you?"

"Of course not." Su Rui glared at Pozëmka, annoyed.

"Myrtle and I don't want to be discovered because we want to act alone for a while, not because we're afraid of being punished... Anyway, we don't need to be afraid of punishment. By the time we leave, the Eunectes and the others should have already discovered us, and then we can go back together."

"Yes, I understand. I'll take you back to rest first."

As Pozëmka spoke, she put down the plate of roasted meat Myrtle she had finished eating. Su Rui also put away what she was holding, then got up and prepared to help Myrtle and follow Pozëmka back.

However, just as Su Rui was about to do so and picked up Myrtle, attempting to carry Myrtle back with Pozëmka in a Myrtle carry, a pair of arms reached out from behind and lifted Su Rui up along with Su Rui, whom she was holding.

"Hey!" Su Rui struggled in dissatisfaction, "I can go back by myself!"

"I know, but isn't it more convenient this way? Don't move around, or the Myrtle in your arms will fall."
