Inside the Stellaron Hunters' headquarters.
After coaxing Asta to sleep, Hiroshi returned to his room.
After checking and finding no traces of anyone else's presence, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Phew... His arrangements really didn't go wrong.
Not long after, the Stellaron Hunters also returned one after another. After greeting them briefly;
Hiroshi got into bed, leaned against the headboard, and started playing on his phone. But just then, 'Old Soldier BBQ' sent a message.
Firefly: Are you okay now?
Oh? Did the old uncle finally find some time!
Hiroshi was instantly overjoyed; this was his savior and friend.
Hiroshi: That's great, Uncle! You're finally done with work. I've missed you so much! (≧∀≦)ゞ
In their place, he hadn't suffered any beatings or abuse; instead, he was being provided with good food and drink.
"Pfft!!!"
In another room, Firefly, who was looking at the text he sent, couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle.
Good food... Was he referring to what she had brought him earlier?
Also, his affectionate attitude was completely different from how he was with her in reality.
After thinking for a moment, she decided to ask the question that made her feel nervous and apprehensive.
Firefly: What... do you think of them?
Meanwhile, in the hall, Kafka was hovering behind Silver Wolf.
Kafka looked at Blade nearby and asked curiously.
"A-Ren, don't you want to know what that child thinks of us?"
"Boring."
Blade crossed his arms, showing no interest at all. At the same time, he felt quite disdainful of their behavior of prying into others' privacy.
Silver Wolf sighed. Originally, she had planned to look secretly;
She wanted to know his opinion of her after she fed him that special "drink" that day, but she didn't expect to be caught by Kafka.
Soon, Hiroshi's message came through.
Hiroshi: A bunch of abnormal folks.
For example: there's one who stabs himself until he's covered in blood at the drop of a hat... "Hehe, A-Ren, this child is speaking ill of you~"
Kafka chuckled, teasing Blade who was standing in the distance.
"He can say whatever he wants."
Blade crossed his arms, not caring at all.
Hiroshi: And that bad woman, she's full of black-bellied schemes. I bet she was the one behind this kidnapping.
Kafka, who was just teasing Blade, saw Hiroshi speaking ill of her the next moment and showed a playful expression.
"Oh my~ It seems that child has some misunderstandings about me. I'll have to find some time later to 'explain' things to him properly."
She emphasized the word "explain," and a dangerous glint flickered in her pink eyes.
Hearing his evaluation of the two, Silver Wolf secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, she hadn't done anything excessive or strange to him. Uh... if he didn't know about that incident, then it didn't happen!
Besides, she had played games with him. He shouldn't hate her, right?
Hiroshi: And then there's that internet-addicted "bratty girl." During the attack on the Space Station, she was the one who put in the most effort. She's even more detestable than that bad woman!
Silver Wolf, who had just thought he would have a good impression of her, only to receive his negative evaluation the next moment, clenched her small fists in anger, her teeth grinding.
Dammit!...This guy! I should have eaten him that day to make him understand the importance of protecting oneself when away from home!
Hmph! If there's a next time, I won't go easy on him! I'll just... drain him dry!
Tucked away in her room, sitting on her bed with her fair legs crossed, Firefly's heart suddenly sank.
It seems... his impression of us is quite terrible. I... must be hated too... Hiroshi: Finally, there's that girl with the terminal illness. She... is very pitiful, and she's the person there who treated me the best.
Although she asked something of me, I... want to help her.
"Eh!?"
Firefly, along with Kafka and Silver Wolf outside, were all stunned.
"To think that child has a good impression only of Firefly. Could this... be love at first sight?"
Is it that I wasn't good to you? I even carried you in games! Talk about double standards!
Silver Wolf grumbled indignantly in her heart.
Firefly's eyes reddened slightly, her heart filled with both emotion and relief.
Even though we've only met a few times, and your impression isn't even that good, you... are still willing to save me?
Hiroshi: By the way, Uncle, I remember you were also seriously injured before?
Firefly: Oh, I'm different from her. Mine were just from battles in my youth, nothing like that little girl you mentioned.
And with the help of your previous potion, it has already healed.
Hiroshi: I see... Firefly: Alright, it's getting late. You... should rest early.
Closing her phone, Firefly lay on her bed with satisfaction.
That's great, I'm not hated!
I'll continue to interact with him using my current identity;
As for the identity of 'Old Soldier BBQ,' it'll just be a mysterious online friend I can talk to from the heart... The next day, while the other Stellaron Hunters were busy with their own tasks, Hiroshi once again used his Teleportation ability to go to the Space Station.
He didn't have time yesterday, but today he had to find that crazy woman Ruan Mei and tell her to stay away from Stelle!
With this thought, he arrived at Ruan Mei's door.
When she saw him, Ruan Mei's gem-like eyes instantly sparkled with a brilliant radiance.
Excitement, desire, and the cunning of having succeeded all flashed through her eyes in an instant.
"Master You're here"
Hiroshi was stunned, feeling that something wasn't quite right.
Strange, is the system's effect still active? Why does it feel like... she has changed significantly from before?
However, if it's the system, there definitely won't be any problems.
Realizing this, he relaxed and snapped at Ruan Mei.
"Why did you let Stelle face an Envoy-level danger alone!"
Hearing his questioning, Ruan Mei sneered in her heart.
Hehe, if I didn't do that, how could I lure you here?
From beginning to end, my goal has been you. Although that item of yours is quite miraculous, I don't have just one body.
But going to find you directly would likely trigger your vigilance, especially with your peculiar Teleportation ability. So... now that you've come to my door yourself, you're no different from a cooked duck~
Now... there's only one step left... Suppressing the urge to devour Hiroshi immediately, she continued to act as if she were still controlled and said,
"Master has misunderstood. I've actually been keeping an eye on Stelle all along. I just wanted to see the specific experimental results."
"Once she truly encountered danger, I would have stepped in to save her immediately!"
Tsk, sounds nice. Who knows if what this crazy woman who disregards life says is true?
But that doesn't matter, as long as she stays away from Stelle from now on;
After all, with the enhancement of the system's items, she will obediently do as I say.
"Enough, you are not allowed to approach Stelle again!"
"Yes, Master~"
Ruan Mei curtsied slightly and submissively complied.
Seeing that his goal was achieved, Hiroshi turned to leave this place for which he had no affection whatsoever.
"But you care so much about Stelle, it makes me... a bit jealous~"
As she spoke, Ruan Mei had already arrived behind him. A faint white glow emanated from her hand as she gently pinched his neck. Hiroshi instantly went limp and fell unconsciously into Ruan Mei's arms.
