Seeing that Aidan had stopped talking, Fuluolan waved at him.

"Hey, what's wrong? Did I hit a nerve?"

Aidan's eyes were deep, and she shook her head slightly.

"Nothing..."

As he spoke, he turned and walked outside, saying, "I'm going for a walk."

The four of them were a little confused, but they quickly forgot about it and continued playing and discussing the future.

In the bustling city streets, Aidan's figure seemed so out of place.

He was wearing a hat and a scarf, and was walking aimlessly forward.

He walked for an unknown amount of time, until he found himself outside the city limits and in the jungle beyond.

Suddenly, he paused, looked up, and stopped in his tracks.

In front of him stood a pixelated skeleton wearing a blue hoodie, less than half his height.

Hey! Long time no see. You seem to be having some troubles.

Sans's strange voice sounded like he was typing out each word one by one.

Aidan sighed softly, then nodded slowly.

"Ah, there is indeed a little bit of trouble."

Sans stroked his chin thoughtfully. "Come on, let me guess."

Are you upset because you can't buy hot dogs?

Aidan chuckled softly, "No, it's because..."

"Etc."

Before Aidan could even begin to complain, Sans raised his hand to interrupt him.

"You can't tell me now, because I have a lot of other things to do."

A skeleton basket.

After saying that, he closed one eye, spread his hands, and made a funny face.

But Aidan was indeed amused; his perpetually gloomy face softened slightly.

"Alright, little one, I'll take you somewhere."

"Huh, where is this place?" Aidan looked at Sans with a puzzled expression.

Sans shrugged. "Just go."

After saying that, he turned and walked in one direction.

Aidan didn't say anything more and followed the other person's footsteps into the depths of the forest.

After walking for a short while, a tall figure appeared in front of them.

The figure was dressed somewhat like Will-o'-the-Wisp Boy, and had a long orange-yellow scarf around his neck.

"Huh?"

Hearing the noise, the voice slowly turned around.

This is also a skeleton.

Hey bro, how's your puzzle coming along?

Sans greeted him warmly, and the tall skeleton in front of him immediately put on a proud expression.

"Hehehe, I, the great Papyrus, have certainly set up the puzzle."

Moreover, this riddle is unlike any other before; it will definitely be an unforgettable experience for both of you!

Papyrus pointed to a patch of fallen leaves on the lawn ahead, "I've set up a lightning maze here. If you go the wrong way, you'll be struck by high-voltage electricity."

Extremely dangerous!

"Hmm... but I seem to remember this puzzle being asked before," Sans retorted mercilessly.

Papyrus was getting a little exasperated. "Nonsense! That was snow before, now it's fallen leaves. There's a huge difference."

for example...

Uh, for example...

Just know that the gap is huge, you absolutely cannot overcome it, come on, humans!

As he spoke, he waved to Aidan.

Aidan hesitated as he looked at the trap in front of him, then tentatively stuck his foot in.

Sizzle--!

"Gaa--!"

A powerful electric current turned Papyrus into a charred black.

He stood there dumbfounded, one eye bigger than the other.

Realizing what had happened, he stomped his feet angrily, "Damn you, Sans! Why did you put that electrical device on me again?!"

"Uh... but I remember I wasn't involved in creating this puzzle."

"Um..."

Papyrus coughed awkwardly twice and pulled a round electrical device from his pocket.

Then, following a route through the leaf-covered lawn, they placed the device on Aidan's head.

"Alright, humans, go! I'll show you just how difficult the puzzles I created are!" Papyrus said confidently.

Aidan stood there like an idiot, balancing a ball on his head, watching the puzzle that Piparis had already walked through.

Follow the route and cross it.

"What! Human, you've solved my riddle again! You truly are my friend!"

Hahahaha!

After saying that, he quickly disappeared from their sight.

The electronic sphere on Aidan's head also disappeared on the spot.

But then Papyrus quietly came back, "Uh... I forgot to tell you something."

"Huh, what?"

When Aidan saw that the other person had returned and wanted to talk to her again, she was a little at a loss.

In the past, after giving him riddles, the other person would always leave with a smile. He had never been so serious about wanting to talk to him like this before.

Papyrus walked up to Aidan, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke.

"My friend, you should know that my dream is to join the Royal Guard."

But as for the outcome, you probably already know, the Royal Guard was disbanded, so I didn't join."

"Hmm." Upon hearing this, Aidan silently lowered her head, but Papyrus smiled happily again.

"But what does it matter? I'm still very happy because I have a bunch of friends I love!"

Even if my dreams haven't come true, I'm still living a very fulfilling and happy life every day!

so...

You have to be happy too!

After saying that, he really ran away.

"Well, it seems my brother really isn't good at saying these kinds of things."

Sans shrugged helplessly. "Alright, let's keep going."

Aidan nodded blankly, "Okay."

'How strange, this is the first time he's ever said such comforting words to me.'

A smile involuntarily crept onto Aidan's lips.

But then his smile froze, because he encountered the monster friend he least wanted to see.

Sister Fish!

However, this time Sister Fish wasn't wearing her usual T-shirt, nor was she carrying a spear.

Instead, she was dressed very casually, and next to her was a strange creature wearing glasses that looked a bit like an earth dragon.

Hey! I've been waiting for you!

"Hey... uh, hello, long time no see."

Sister Fish and the strange earth dragon next to her greeted Aidan.

"Ah, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting, Sister Fish."

"Yes, it has been a long time, Alphys."

Aidan greeted the two "people," feeling slightly surprised.

"What happened to you two...?"

Before Aidan could finish speaking, Sister Fish interrupted.

"Kid, we're here to cheer you up! Don't stay so down all day!"

"Huh?!" Aidan was startled.

"Don't be nervous, we're just going to talk about some things, um some things..."

It's just about love...

As she spoke, Alphys glanced at Sister Fish beside her, her cheeks slightly flushed.

"Uh, I know you're in the same boat as me, you like staying home eating instant noodles and you like anime waifus."

Oh, by the way, I bought the latest Meow Meow figure!

No sooner had Alphys finished speaking than Sister Fish slapped her, "Get to the point!"
