Collapse Iron: The Five Heroes of the Clouds Won't Let Me Go

"This book, 'As I Write,' is the foundation of Onfaros; you just haven't activated it yet."

"Uncle Xiao, I don't understand."

"Simply put, once you successfully activate it, what you write on it will become a reality in Onfaros."

"Wow! Really?! That's incredible!"

Dan Heng was also somewhat surprised:

"Father, this thing has this function? We still need to investigate what Onpharos holds."

"Mimi? Mimimi? (What is that? I don't understand.)"

Xing hugged Mimi and gave her a good rub:

"Mimi! You're my lucky star! What do you want to eat? I'll get it for you right away!"

"Mimi~ (Strawberry pie, apple cake, matcha candy, milk green tea~)"

"Wow, you've got quite a good appetite."

Xing and Danheng took Mimi to a restaurant to buy food, while Cheng Xiao pondered how to obtain the fire seed of Oronis.

Upon arriving at the Earth Beast's habitat, three familiar faces were feeding the Earth Beast.

As always, Xia Die was gentle and mild, and Cheng Xiao asked curiously:

"Does Xia Die usually come here?"

"It's Lord Cheng Xiao. Hmm... Because of my special circumstances, the people of Ohema are actually quite afraid of me. Compared to the common people, the earth beasts are completely harmless."

"That's why I usually seek some peace and quiet here."

The two were talking when a loud noise came from the other side.

"Bai E! How dare you paint the Earth Beast yellowish-purple?! I'll kill you!!!"

"Teacher Xia! Don't you think this is sacred?"

"I think you want to get shot!"

"Ms. Xia, you actually fired that shot! You killed someone! The teacher killed the student!"

"Hahaha, magic tricks!"

Xia Die & Cheng Xiao: "..."

Xia Die: "Look, it's been quite noisy lately."

Cheng Xiao comforted him, saying:

"Xia Die also longs for friends, but the power you wield prevents you from getting close to others."

"Yes, I used to hate my own power. I also questioned why death was haunting me, and even hated death."

The butterfly gently stroked the glove:

"But since my conversation with Lord Gnaeus, I have gained a new perspective on death, which perhaps represents the mission I bear."

Cheng Xiao laughed:

"Even if death is with you, you still have friends by your side, don't you? Besides, we who come from outer space will never mind your power."

Xia Die's pointed ears twitched, and she said shyly:

"Yes, I like everyone, and Xing is really reliable. Although she can be a bit eccentric at times, that makes her even more vibrant."

Cheng Xiao extended his hand and invited:

"Mastering the power of death, that must be troublesome. Why don't you try shaking my hand and feeling the warmth between people?"

"No! That won't do, it will hurt you!"

"You underestimate me. You know my strength. Do you think your death can harm me?"

"Your Excellency, this is too dangerous. I am responsible for your safety."

However, Cheng Xiao did not give Xia Die the ability to refuse, and grabbed her soft hand.

Xia Die's hands seemed to be unusually soft and tender, and they felt incredibly comfortable to hold.

Even the butterfly trembled slightly at the sudden touch, its little hands shaking uneasily, making it even more adorable.

"Xia Die, open your eyes! Look, I'm alright."

Xia Die opened her eyes uneasily and saw her hand lightly clasped together with Cheng Xiao's.

The warmth of their palms was transferred to each other, and Cheng Xiao's warmth flowed into Xia Die's body.

"Your Excellency...you're really alright?"

"Sure, how was it? How did it feel to shake hands with a friend?"

"Hmm...very good."

Cheng Xiao withdrew his hand and laughed:

"Don't worry, once the re-creation is complete, the spark that belongs to death will surely return to its rightful place, and I will definitely free you from the shackles of death."

"Then you can hug everyone without any worries!"

Cheng Xiao gently encouraged Xia Die, hoping to boost her confidence.

Xia Die felt that the smile was too dazzling, but not scorching; instead, it warmed her cold body.

"Thank you, Your Excellency. I believe in you and am willing to embark on this journey to pursue the fire with you and everyone else!"

"That's more like it. Cheer up! Don't stay cooped up all day. Talk to everyone more and develop some hobbies."

"Hmm... Your Excellency, I do have some personal hobbies."

"What?"

"Fictionalized interpersonal relationships for entertainment purposes."

"Uh, I don't understand."

"It's nothing, you don't need to know. I will interact with everyone more to build relationships."

Cheng Xiao was very satisfied. He patted Xia Die on the shoulder as encouragement and then left.

Xia Die's body trembled, the sensation of being gently patted on the shoulder, and the feeling from every point on her nerves all rushed into her brain.

This is fantastic.

As someone who lives with death, everyone she comes into contact with will die.

Those who once raised me... and many acquaintances, have all vanished in this process.

What Xia Die longed for was just an ordinary hug, like any other person would.

She wasn't good at expressing intense emotions, so a tight hug was just the right way to convey her joy and excitement.

She had been suppressing her feelings for far too long. As expected, people from outer space are different, whether it's Xing or Cheng Xiao.

Since Lord Chengxiao is not afraid of the aura of death, it wouldn't be a problem for her to spend more time with him under the guise of comforting him, would it?

"No... No, Lord Chengxiao is a hero who has helped us so much, how can I do this..."

"But I really want to try a hug, a tight and long hug."

"I'm sorry, Xing, Danheng, please lend me Lord Chengxiao. I'm doing something insatiable."

......

"Hey, is it possible to reconcile?"

Lai Gushi covered his forehead; the scene before him was giving him a real headache.

"Hey, senior, you're supposed to be the number one genius, and you're already failing?"

Black Tower crossed his arms and said jokingly:

"Screw, stop wasting your breath on him. Just try hacking into the Scepter system, we'll kick him out and take over the administrator's duties."

"Black Tower, although I have high privileges, I can't just hack into the Scepter system at will."

"Even you can't easily infiltrate? How long will it take?"

"One minute."

Black Tower: "?"

"Don't misunderstand, I gave Mr. Cheng Xiao a beta module. Based on the location of its anchor point, I was able to infiltrate it within a minute."

Laigushi: "Although your strength exceeds my expectations, isn't it a bit inappropriate to openly plot in front of me?"

Black Tower laughed:

"Senior, we mean no harm. We just want to see what someone like you is up to."

"Black Tower, Slugum, I advise you two not to advance any further. If you interfere in this place, you will face true destruction."

Black Tower: "Screw, he's provoking us! What do you think?"

Screw Gum: "Ever since I started researching Mr. Cheng Xiao's power and raised my normal system permissions to the level of Emperor II, I haven't been provoked in a long time."

Lai Gushi broke out in a cold sweat. What did it mean that his normal authority was on par with that of the Second Emperor?

What's going on with you two?!
