Chapter 623
"Then, this time, I truly look forward to your guidance, my family."
Leticia just smiled at that.
"Yes, please enlighten me, my master."
——
Back in reality, when Izayoi saw Leticia in her mature, Izayoi sister form next to Luo Mio, he also revealed an amused smile.
He said to Luo Mio.
"Little Brother Mio, have you developed some new way to play?"
Black Rabbit, unable to contain herself any longer, took out a folded paper fan and slapped it hard on Izayoi's head with a loud crack, saying angrily.
"What nonsense are you spouting, you idiot!"
Chapter 20: The Fire Dragon Birth Festival! (3800/10000 words)
It has been about a month since Luo Mio and the Problem Children Trio came to the entire Hakoniwa World, played the Gift Game with 'Perseus' and won.
Furthermore, in Luo Mio's 'Herrscher of Death' state, those lands that should have died have now been revitalized.
With the help of the children, the abandoned land, which had been revitalized, quickly began to be cultivated.
On this day, as usual, Luo Mio came to the 'No Name' territory in the morning to check on the land.
After all, Luo Mio actually enjoys this kind of farming-like life very much.
Originally, Leticia was supposed to accompany Luo Mio today as usual.
However, since Black Rabbit and the children needed help cultivating the land on the other side, Leticia stayed with Black Rabbit as well.
Just then, several figures suddenly appeared behind Luo Mio...
——
"The Fire Dragon Birth Festival?"
Luo Mio looked at the Problem Children Trio, then took a letter sealed with a 'Thousand Eyes' badge from Izayoi's hand.
You Kasukabe was standing to the side, held the three-colored cat, nodded gently, and said to Luo Mio.
"Yes, and Lily said that it was White Night Dragon who personally stamped the seal, and then it was an invitation to participate in the Gift Game."
Upon hearing this, Luo Mio raised an eyebrow, her face showing surprise.
"You mean... the White Night Dragon?"
As the true Demon King who is Last Embryo and the 'Floor Master' of the East District the Hakoniwa World, he is also one of the Strongest Species in the Hakoniwa World, the Primal Star Spirit.
The invitation from the White Night Dragon to them, 'No Name,' is an absolutely fun, highly engaging, and anticipated Gift Game.
After opening the envelope, Luo Mio looked at what was written inside.
"Fire Dragon Birth Festival"
'Besides the art and craft exhibitions and judging sessions held by the North District Demon Kind and Elves, there are also various "Gift Game" organized by the "hosts."'
The main event is a large-scale festival scheduled to be hosted by Floor Master 'Floor Master'.
Seeing this, Luo Mio stroked her chin, deep in thought.
"Fire Dragon Birth Festival... Birth Festival?"
"Does this refer to the festival Pureblood Dragon Seed is born?"
Hearing Luo Mio's murmur, Izayoi shrugged.
"Who knows?"
Luo Lun raised his eyes to look at the Problem Children Trio and asked curiously.
"So what's the deal with this invitation?"
The noble young lady from the Problem Children Trio, Asuka Kudou, said, "This invitation was found by chance in Black Rabbit's room by Kasukabe."
You Kasukabe to the side, nodded.
"Yes, I found it by chance."
Then Izayoi walked over, put her arm around Luo Mio's shoulder, and said with a mischievous grin.
"How about it, Little Brother Mio? Want to come along?"
"Let's go together..."
Luo Mio remained silent for a moment, then looked expressionlessly at Ren, who was lying on the stone behind the three of them, fast asleep... or rather, unconscious.
"Ren, what is this...?"
"Ah, little one, you were knocked unconscious by the young lady's Flash Magic attack on the side of your head."
Upon hearing Izayoi's words, Asuka responded with some dissatisfaction.
"That's because you, Izayoi, used Ren-kun as a shield."
"Well, well, it's because you and Kasukabe disturbed my sleep just as I was falling asleep. Anyone would be quite angry to be woken up when they're sleeping so soundly."
"Oh my, what a coincidence! I was also woken up by Kasukabe and Lily when I wanted to go back to sleep."
Seeing Izayoi and Asuka seemingly arguing, Luo Mio sighed with a slight headache, then looked at You Kasukabe and asked softly.
"Yao, you found him in Black Rabbit's room?"
"Um."
You Kasukabe nodded and then said, "I found it by chance in a drawer in Black Rabbit's room."
"..."
Luo Mio had no idea why You Kasukabe would accidentally appear in Black Rabbit's room, and even more surprisingly, find the invitation with the words 'Thousand Eyes' printed on it in Black Rabbit 'White Night Dragon drawer.
Looking at the invitation in her hand, Luo Mio looked at Izayoi and asked.
"So what are you planning to do now? Aren't you going to discuss this with Black Rabbit?"
Upon hearing Luo Mio's question, Izayoi, Asuka, and You Kasukabe, the three Problem Children, spoke in unison.
"That's impossible." ×3
"Um?"
Seeing the three Problem Children answer in unison, Luo Mio raised an eyebrow.
Asuka said directly.
"Having already left that kind of letter for Black Rabbit, how could we possibly go back to discuss it with her?"
"That's right, that's right."
You Kasukabe to the side, nodded in agreement with Asuka's words.
Upon hearing Asuka's words, a hint of doubt flickered in Luo Mio's eyes.
Letter?
Izayoi laughed heartily as she spoke.
"We are now planning to go to 'Thousand Eyes' to find White Night Dragon. After all, she sent the invitation, so naturally she should take responsibility."
"Take responsibility! Take responsibility!"
You Kasukabe to the side, also shouted in unison with Izayoi's mood.
"..."
To be honest, Luo Mio now finally understands the exhaustion that Black Rabbit felt in the past few days, filled with grief and indignation, yet helpless against these Problem Children.
But never mind...
As the oldest of the four, Luo Mio was the only one who could help. While Izayoi didn't need to worry about Luo Mio, Asuka and Yo were different. Although their own gifted powers were very strong, they hadn't fully matured yet. If they got into trouble, Izayoi's power could protect them, but if she was too busy to help them, things would get really complicated.
"Alright, I'll go with you."
Then Izayoi carried the unconscious Jin.
The Problem Children Trio, along with community leader Ren and Luo Mio, headed towards the outer gate of 2105380, towards the 'Thousand Eyes' branch.
While Luo Mio and the three Problem Children, Izayoi, Asuka, and Yao, were leaving, on the other side, Black Rabbit and Leticia...
Black Rabbit's shoulders trembled with rage as she held the envelope Lily had hastily retrieved from the main building...
Leticia glanced in the direction of Luo Mio, then looked at the Black Rabbit radiating an unusual aura...
A slight twitch appeared at the corner of her mouth as she whispered to herself.
'Should we tell Black Rabbit...?'
As a member of Luo Mio's family, Leticia sensed Luo Mio's departure from 'No Name' the moment he left...
——
On the way, Luo Mio looked at Ren, who was being carried in Izayoi's hands like a hen carrying her chick, and then, recalling what Asuka had said earlier, asked.
"What kind of letter were you referring to when you said you 'left those kinds of letters for Black Rabbit '?"
Upon hearing Luo Mio's question, the Problem Children exchanged glances, then You Kasukabe looked at Luo Mio and explained the letter he had left for Black Rabbit...
"..."
After listening to everything You Kasukabe said, Luo Mio frowned, her brows revealing a deep sense of helplessness and exasperation.
He looked at Izayoi, Asuka, and You Kasukabe Yō, and then said in a tone that seemed to be a reproachful helplessness.
"Even if there was an element of spite or mischief involved, your word 'withdraw' is too radical, even to the point of being malicious."
That's right, it's what Asuka wrote in the letter she left for Black Rabbit.
Because Black Rabbit wanted to conceal the fact that they had received an invitation to the Fire Dragon Birth Festival, Asuka left Black Rabbit with the message that if they weren't caught by today, Asuka, Izayoi, and You Kasukabe would all withdraw from the community...
Looking at the three Problem Children, Luo Mio really experienced what it means to have a naughty child in your home.
There was no other way; all they could do was let Leticia comfort Black Rabbit.
While walking, Jin, who was being carried by Izayoi, woke up because of the shaking.
When she saw Luo Mio was also there, she also complained.
"Mr. Mio, why didn't you do something to stop them?"
Luo Mio rolled her eyes at this.
"Stop them? And let them get even angrier and more resentful? Don't you even know who they are?"
"..."
Luo Mio's words left Ren speechless.
Izayoi, Asuka, and You Kasukabe Yo are the world's number one and strongest group of Problem Children.
Then Luo Mio's lips curled up slightly, revealing a smile.
"Moreover, I really want to see that so-called 'Fire Dragon Birth Festival'."
"..."
Looking at Luo Mio, Izayoi, and the others, Ren sighed softly, then said with a worried expression, "It seems that you really did set off without knowing the truth."
"A situation where you were unaware...?"
Jin looked at You Kasukabe.
"The entire Hakoniwa World has a surface area equivalent to that of a star."
"Although there are other abandoned wastelands and other towns in the Hakoniwa World, the Little Garden City is still the largest city in this world, and its proportion is completely different from other towns."
Luo Mio was very clear about what Ren was saying.
After all, he had often heard about this during casual conversations with his family member Leticia over the past month.
The same is true for Izayoi, but unlike Luo Mio, he and Jin browsed many materials and books about the Hakoniwa World and the outside world together in the library on the third basement floor of the 'No Name' main building.
In addition, I occasionally hear about it from Black Rabbit, so I have a certain understanding of it.
If the surface area of Hakoniwa World is the same as the surface area of the sun, then its surface area is thirteen thousand times that of the Earth.
