Crossover Anime: A Dimensional Journey Starting with Frilian

"Huh?" Satella stared at the time in disbelief.

"What's wrong?"

"What else... I'm a half-demon..."

"I understand, is there a problem?" Shi Chen asked casually.

"You...you...uh!"

Satella's pretty face visibly flushed red, as if she were too shy to bear it. Then she turned around, squatted down, held her head, and made a shy sound that was hard to decipher.

"Oh... Ah..."

"Oh dear~" Parker flew over quickly, his cat face teasing.

"What's going on now?" Natsuki Subaru asked curiously as he ran over.

Shi Chen spread his hands: "I don't know either..."

"I don't know yet... Ugh, Shichen, you're such an idiot! A level three idiot!" Satella said shyly without turning her head.

"What kind of cursing is this? And why did you suddenly start cursing at me?"

"I don't know! Who cares about you! Let's not talk about this! We need to find the badge quickly!" Satella stood up, not even glancing at the time, and walked forward with a brisk pace.

"Is this... shyness? What did you do, Toki-nii-san?" Natsuki Subaru asked.

"I didn't do anything, weren't you all watching from behind?" Shi Chen retorted.

"Really?" Subaru Natsuki said, expressing disbelief.

"No buts, finding what you're looking for is the priority... Also, you're going the wrong way," Shichen called out to Satella.

"..."

Satella paused, turned around, lowered her head, and quickly walked back, then passed by them without saying a word.

She didn't cover her face, so naturally, everyone could see her flushed cheeks, as red as apples.

"Brother Shi, you really have a knack for this." Natsuki Subaru chuckled and raised an eyebrow in a teasing tone.

"Stop talking nonsense! Hurry up and catch up, it's going to get dark soon, and Parker won't be of any use then."

"Hey, you can't say that, can you? I'm still very useful."

"So it can only be used as a mascot."

"I am angry!"

Chapter 478 The Girl's Smile

"Time of day, where are we?"

"A fruit stand."

“Of course I know this is a fruit stand… Why are we here?” Satella asked, puzzled.

After walking for a while, she had calmed down.

"You're such a silly little thing, have you forgotten? Didn't I say I'd ask someone I know about this place?"

"I'm not a little fool..."

Satella retorted with dissatisfaction before saying, "You mean, you know someone at this fruit stand?"

"You're so smart." Shi Chen reached out and ruffled her hair.

"Are you mocking me? And why do you like touching my head more and more..." Satella said, but she didn't slap Shichen's hand away.

For some reason, she liked being touched like this, by Shichen's hand, which made her feel very comfortable, as if she were being pampered.

This was a feeling she hadn't experienced in a long time.

And most importantly, she didn't have time to stop him from doing so.

"If I don't like it, I won't do it."

“It’s not a question of like or dislike…”

"That's no problem."

"Well......"

"Hey buddy, it's you again." At that moment, the menacing-looking fruit shop owner came out.

"Whoa! Is this the boss? He looks kind of scary." Natsuki Subaru was startled when he saw the boss's appearance.

"How can you judge a person by their appearance? Boss, it's been a long time." Shi Chen withdrew his hand from Satella's head and greeted his boss.

"What do you mean 'long time no see'? Didn't we just meet? You're here to buy apples this time?" the shopkeeper asked coldly.

"If you're buying an apple, can I ask you a question?"

"If you become a guest, then there will definitely be no problem."

"That's no problem. Although I don't have any money, I brought some people with me, so buying a few apples from you shouldn't be a problem."

"Still a distinguished guest." The owner ignored Natsuki Subaru and glanced at Satella.

"Huh? Shichen, are you talking about me?" Satella realized what was happening and asked in a low voice.

"Why not?"

"Um... I'm sorry, I didn't bring any money," Satella replied awkwardly.

"Uh......"

Shi Chen was stunned for a moment, looking at her in disbelief: "Really?"

“Yes…” Satella lowered her head, feeling even more embarrassed.

"Hey buddy, you're not here to mess with me, are you?" The boss sighed, his eyes turning cold.

"It's not that bad. I just didn't expect that my companions didn't have any money with them."

"I'm sorry..." Satella apologized with great remorse.

"I can't blame you. In that case, we can start the second plan."

"The second plan?"

"Look over there." Shichen gestured for Satella to look at the discovery on her right.

"Huh?" Satella exclaimed in surprise as she turned her head to look over, seeing two familiar faces.

"Oh dear~ Aren't you two our benefactors?"

Approaching was a woman with long, brown hair swaying, holding the hand of a smiling little girl.

The little girl was so happy because she saw them.

"Big brother! Big sister!"

The two people who arrived were the lost little girl and her mother whom Shi Chen and the others had just helped.

"Madam... what brings you here?" Satella asked in surprise when the two of them came to her.

"Hehe~ This is my husband's shop, I just stopped by to take a look," the wife explained with a smile.

"Husband... could it be... the boss?"

"Yes."

"Isn't this too coincidental?"

"Indeed."

"Really? Uncle, you didn't kill this lady's husband and then seize the boss's position, did you?" Natsuki Subaru asked incredulously.

"What nonsense are you spouting? I am the real owner of this shop, and she is my wife!" the owner said with an air of authority.

"Hehe~" The wife gave a slightly troubled smile.

"Ah this..."

It's no wonder that Subaru Natsuki didn't believe it. His wife looked slender, gentle, and still had a lot of charm, but his boss had a scar on his face and looked like a criminal.

It's hard to believe the two are a couple.

However, appearances can be deceiving. The boss was very proud when he said that his wife was his wife, and he loved her very much.

That's probably why his wife married him.

"Dad~"

"Hey~ Did you listen to me? You're really energetic... By the way, do you know this guy?"

The boss hugged the little girl who rushed towards him, revealing a憨态可掬 smile.

"Yes, yes! Thanks to the older brothers and sisters, I was able to find my mother," the little girl nodded and explained.

"So that's it."

After hearing this, the shopkeeper put the little girl down and looked at Shichen with an innocent smile: "Young man, you are actually my benefactor."

"Life is such a wonderful thing."

"That's true... Young man, feel free to ask me any questions, and I'll tell you whatever I know." The shopkeeper's attitude became sincere.

This guy must be a doting father to his daughter.

"Actually, it's not a big problem. I just wanted to ask you if there are any slums nearby."

"The slums? What happened?"

“My companion’s important possession has been stolen; we must retrieve it,” Shichen said, pointing at Satella.

"I see. But those kinds of places are still very dangerous. Is that alright?"

"Don't worry, we may look simple, but we're actually quite formidable."

"Since that's the case, I'll tell you."

"Thanks."

After getting the exact location from the boss, Shichen prepared to lead everyone there, but the little girl walked towards them with her hands behind her back.
