I reign supreme in the Western fantasy world for eternity.

From the moment the first bird appeared in the sky, Lilith sensed that this world was different from the one she had experienced in the previous two hundred reincarnations.

One morning, Lilith yawned and pushed open the cave door, where she saw a gray-feathered bird perched on a branch outside the cave entrance, chirping.

She stood there stunned for a while, until the bird flapped its wings and flew away, before running to pull Ji Tian out of his reverie.

"Ji Tian! There are birds outside!"

Ji Tian was dragged to the door by the hem of his clothes and looked in the direction she pointed.

The morning light seeped in from the eastern ridgeline, turning the entire hillside a pale gold.

Several birds were flitting through the woods, chirping softly. At the edge of the meadow in the distance, a few clusters of unidentified white wildflowers were peeking out from the soil, swaying gently in the still air.

"These things weren't in the memories I recalled before, were they?"

Lilith nodded repeatedly:

"There's nothing here! I've gone back in time so many times, and I've never seen a flower! Not even grass! There was nothing here before..."

Ji Tian stood there, gazing at the greenery spreading across the distant hillside, and speculated:

"It's probably because I've gathered all the authority over the World Tree."

When all seven powers are gathered in one person, the "rules" of this space seem to change, shifting towards a smaller world.

But why can't I leave this place?

It’s weird.

From then on, the boring days became interesting.

Mia took Little Flower to explore the boundaries of a new world and only returned occasionally.

Ji Tian found a high place near a stream in the forest, used his earth-elemental power to level the foundation, and used his wind-elemental power to transport fast-growing timber to build two simple wooden houses, living the pastoral life that Lilith had described.

A vacant lot was left in front of the house. Lilith moved a few wild seedlings from the nearby bushes and planted them in the vacant lot.

She said she wanted to "cultivate good fruit herself" so that she wouldn't have to climb trees to pick those sour and astringent wild fruits that made people question their existence.

"Are you sure these will survive?"

Ji Tian stood behind her, watching her squat on the ground and gently press the soil next to the seedling roots with her fingers.

Lilith wiped the sweat from her forehead with her small hand and smiled:

"I don't know, but what if it survives? Back in the Demon King's castle, I was a master gardener. Once, I forgot to water my potted plants for half a year and they were still fine."

"Have you forgotten for half a year? Typical of you. But are you sure you don't have any maids to help you manage things?"

Ji Tian thought to himself that he didn't want to dampen her enthusiasm, after all, as long as she was happy.

He beckoned to create a cool breeze to cool Lilith down before asking:

"Do you need any help?"

"Okay~ Just help me build a fence," Lilith said, pointing to her slender waist. "It doesn't need to be too high, just waist-high is fine."

Ji Tian used wooden strips and vines to build a low fence.

Lilith crouched inside the fence, carefully watering the wild seedlings, humming a little tune, her waist curving gracefully in the sunlight.

Ji Tian leaned against the doorframe, watching her retreating figure without saying a word. He watched her brush the mud off her skirt, then turn back and smile at him.

"Ji Tian, ​​look, haven't they grown a little bit taller?"

"I don't think so. You just planted it half an hour ago."

"...Couldn't you just lie to me for once?"

Later, she also cleared a small vegetable garden behind the wooden house and planted a few wild vegetable seedlings that she had repeatedly tested and confirmed were barely edible.

She also had Ji Tian take out the wooden stick from his spatial ring, sharpen the tip, and use it to spear fish.

Lilith speared the fish with great flair, and even boasted to Ji Tian that she had honed her spearing skills on a fat koi in the koi pond in the Demon King's castle's back garden.

Lilith, as if wearing waterproof thigh-high leather boots, squatted on a rock by the stream like a stone lion, staring at the water. When the fish shadow got close, she suddenly plunged in!

Water splashed everywhere, and the wooden stick was raised, its tip empty except for water droplets glistening in the sunlight.

Undeterred, she put the stick back into the water and continued waiting.

Do you think I can hit the target this time?

"able."

"Don't you dare use your power to help me secretly!"

Remembering Lilith's earlier advice to occasionally lie to her, Ji Tian nodded again and said, "Yes."

"Don't lie to me."

Ji Tian smiled without saying a word, looking at her with an expression that said, "Don't humiliate yourself."

Lilith saw through his thoughts, and quite unconvinced, she pouted and said:

"Hmph! I don't believe it. What if I get pricked?"

"Well, you're pretty good."

"Don't underestimate a young girl's potential, you rascal!"

Upon hearing this, Ji Tian praised, "Not bad, you've even learned to quote classics."

"Endure!"

Finally, after several failures, Lilith successfully speared a strangely shaped fish, which was probably edible and whose tail was still swishing.

She was overjoyed, and immediately stood up, holding the fish up and shouting at Ji Tian:

"I got pricked! Did you see that? I got pricked!"

"I saw it."

"Then I'll bake it for you tonight!"

This was Lilith's first successful hunt in this small world.

Clean the fish, skewer it with a stick, and roast it slowly over the fire.

The fish skin curled slightly under the heat of the flames, sizzling and releasing a light, charred aroma.

Lilith held up the grilled fish and handed it to Ji Tian.

"Here, help me test the poison."

The main reason is that if you don't say it that way, Ji Tian will usually refuse and say that he has a fasting pill and doesn't need to eat anything.

Ji Tian took it, tore off a piece, and tasted it.

The fish skin was crispy, the fish meat was tender, and the taste was surprisingly good.

Lilith crouched on the other side of the fire, resting her chin on her hands as she watched him. After a while, she smiled and leaned close to his ear, softly asking, "How was it?"

Ji Tian could vaguely smell the faint scent of charcoal and body fragrance emanating from the other person's clothes, and subconsciously replied:

"Not poisonous."

"That's good~"

She smiled, her eyes crinkling, and, enduring the heat, broke off half of the fish and handed it to the other person. "After you finish this piece of fish, I won't grill fish next time. Let's go hunting."

Why?

Lilith chewed on the fish and mumbled, "Because I wanted to challenge myself~"

The main reason is that spearfishing is too difficult. Lilith even felt that if she had devoted herself to this skill while wandering, she might have starved to death long ago.

Not to mention now that they want to support Ji Tian.

In the following days, they began to try hunting.

Ji Tian had taught Lilith many spells in previous reincarnations, but most of them were the type of spells for concealing one's aura, hiding, escaping, and saving one's life.

She knew almost nothing about hunting and killing techniques, except once when she used "spiritual power wings" to fly down from the sky and crash into the ground, creating a shallow crater.

"Would you like to learn some offensive spells?"

Ji Tian stood beside her, waiting for her to climb out of the pit and brush the bits of grass off her head. "That way, you won't run around aimlessly if you encounter a wild boar."

Lilith shook her head: "No."

Why?

"Because I've already been expelled from the sect, we're now completely innocent! Besides, you promised to grant my wish, but I haven't made a wish yet. I need to think about it carefully."

Make a wish?

Ji Tian remembered that he had indeed promised to give Lilith a reward.

But he always felt something was wrong, though he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

It's probably because I never made a wish.

"So, how do you plan to deal with the wild boar?"

"I can dig a trap by myself, I don't need your help."

Ji Tian nodded. "Good idea. You can continue with your work. I'll go take a look around the neighborhood."

She worked tirelessly until evening before finally finishing. Lilith sat on a stone bench in the courtyard by the door, her legs dangling in the air as she ate wild fruit she had picked from the woods.

The fruit was still a bit sour, but seeing Ji Tian returning with his prey in the distance made me very happy.

So he pretended to enjoy it and ate it in a few bites, then skipped over and handed the rest of the wild fruit to the other person.

"These are all sweet, here you go."
