Talulah, I'm still a child.

Elias, or rather Flash Shield, looked at Mei Xue with great curiosity; to them, this little guy was quite intriguing.

"Don't worry too much about it. Mei Xue's abilities are among the most unique of all the people I know."

Mostima smiled and handed over a piece of jam bread. Although Terra had all sorts of Originium Arts, at least they all followed basic principles. But Mei Xue's abilities were really unreasonable; she could even influence something as ethereal as luck.

"Such a small child... um, your name is Mei Xue, right? Do you only eat apples?"

"No, I just don't like eating meat."

Mei Xue shook his head. Because Miss Black Snake taught him well, he had no trouble communicating with these people. On the contrary, he was very curious about what their weapons were like, as they looked somewhat different from Exusiai's gun.

Of course, the little fox wouldn't be so offensive as to speak directly. In fact, the negotiation work could be left to Mostima, who was very smart and had seen all kinds of people.

Mostima didn't believe the Rainbow Squad's claim that they came from a very far place. Putting aside their weapons and equipment, the fact that they had no racial characteristics yet weren't Argol was enough to raise suspicion. The last person she had seen like this was the Doctor from Rhodes Island.

"Speaking of which, since you have nowhere to go for the time being, why don't you consider coming with us to Laterano?"

Some things are better left unsaid, and Mostima certainly wouldn't point out the flaws in their words. After all, Mei Xue was there, and she didn't think these people could do anything. Even if they suddenly attacked, Mostima didn't think their guns would fire.

"Latran..."

Ash glanced at his companions, and after exchanging glances for a while, they agreed with the suggestion. They lacked knowledge of the world, had no place to stay, no money, and no legitimate identity. They would be restricted wherever they went, so following Mostima and the others was a good option.

Moreover, compared to those, Rainbow Squad's attention was more focused on Exusiai. While it wasn't as obvious as with Mostima, Exusiai was a veritable angel, and the halo around her head was no mere decoration.

"Um, I'm actually quite curious, is the halo around this lady's head really not fixed in place by something?"

"..."

This question stumped everyone; in fact, even Laterano himself hadn't figured out how the halo on his head and the wings on his back were fixed in place.

"Okay, it seems I asked a somewhat offensive question."

Flash Shield scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly. He began to feel curious about this world. In such a strange and wonderful world, how did people imagine other worlds?

"Excuse me, do you have any science fiction novels?"

"Yes, I have them all here."

Mei Xue raised her hand because the Sirens needed all sorts of ancient information. The little fox had stuffed all kinds of books into his tail, from comics to textbooks. He himself quite liked those kinds of novels.

"Let's not talk about that anymore. Let's get ready to leave. Meixue, bring out another car, otherwise we won't have enough room."

Okay~

"Wait a minute, can a car even fit in that rear?"

The Rainbow Team was shocked, especially after they saw Mei Xue pull a car out of the tail. Although they couldn't see the details clearly like the others, this was just too unscientific. It was a tail, not a black hole.

"That's why I said Mei Xue's abilities are the most unique I've ever seen. Can you guys drive?"

"Hmm... if this car is not too different from what we know."

Ash went over and inspected the car. It looked brand new. Although the internal structure was different from what they knew about cars, it was still similar. At least it would be fine to drive.

"No problem, let's go."

"Alright, I'll prepare appropriate identities for you in Laterano. You'll need to put away your weapons. I'm not kidding, even the Laterano people are very interested in these things."

A gun that doesn't require Originium Arts and can be used by anyone. If this thing appeared on Terra, it would definitely cause a huge mess. Even if it's not a threat to people like Mostima, it might be a different story for ordinary people. If this thing were mass-produced... with Mei Xue around, it wouldn't be a problem, but let's forget about it.

"This... will work too."

Ash thought about it and realized that bringing these weapons into the city would indeed arouse suspicion, so he handed the guns in his hand to Mei Xue and stuffed them into his tail. However, for safety reasons, he kept a pistol for emergencies.

They set off again, but just in case, Ash chose to ride in Mei Xue's car, while Mostima went to the car behind. Looking at Mei Xue, who was holding her tail, through the rearview mirror, Ash was really curious about how she managed to stuff so many things in there. According to Mostima, that was Mei Xue's unique ability.

"What's wrong, big sister?"

"Oh no, it's nothing... it's just that you might be more appropriate to call me Auntie."

Although she didn't know if it was because she had transmigrated to this world that she looked younger, Ash was indeed getting on in years. At least she felt that it was a bit inappropriate for Mei Xue to call her "sister".

(That's because you don't know how old Mei Xue is.)

Exusiai muttered to herself, then reached out and rubbed Mei Xue's head again. She left the driving to Fia Meta, so she could have more time to cuddle with the little fox.

"Hmm~ By the way, Sister Neng, what did you want to ask me before?"

Mei Xue twitched her fox ears. Exusiai had originally planned to ask him a question, but was interrupted by the sudden appearance of the Rainbow Squad. The little fox was very curious about what she wanted to ask.

"Ah, well... it's not really anything important."

Although Mostima was in the car behind, the presence of an unfamiliar Ash made Exusiai a little nervous. However, after careful consideration, she decided it was better to ask now to avoid being unable to speak later.

"That's right, I wanted to ask Mei Xue, what are your requirements for your marriage partner, such as a house or a car? I heard that Da Yan values ​​these things a lot."

She still managed to ask the question. Exusiai's question implied something that didn't need to be explained. Fiamet almost drove the car into the ditch, and Ash's eyes instantly sharpened. She was very familiar with this topic; she had executed countless people on it!

"I don't care."

Mei Xue twitched her fox ears and gently swayed her tail as she answered Exusiai's question. The little fox gently nibbled on her apple, recalling that the last time she had been asked this question was by Skadi.

"As long as she likes me and I like her, marriage becomes a natural thing. We can work hard together to have a house and a car if we don't have them yet."

As the little fox spoke, he was constructing an ideal future blueprint in his mind. In fact, he had thought carefully about this issue, after all, his sisters kept asking him about it every day.

"Well, but I'll have to wait until I grow up to get married. That way, I can get married after I have a job. That's what all my older sisters say."

"So that means you wouldn't mind if your partner was a lazy bum who did nothing all day but still spent a lot of money?"

"...I don't think I'd ever like that kind of person."

Mei Xue answered decisively. Although he could easily support such a parasite, the little fox probably wouldn't like him. Exusiai felt as if an arrow had pierced her heart.

After all, she subconsciously compared herself to the situation and realized that she just wanted to be a freeloader because with Mei Xue around, she didn't have to worry about food, clothing, or other necessities.

"Does that mean I have no chance?"

"You can't say that. I still really like Sister Aneng, so you're definitely not a freeloader~"

To comfort the dejected Exusiai, Mei Xue hugged her and kissed her on the cheek, then smiled and swayed her body.

Ash, who had witnessed all of this, subconsciously touched the gun at his waist. His professional instincts kicked in, and he kept thinking about firing a burst of bullets into Exusiai's head. No, no, he had to hold back.

The journey to Laterano is still quite long, and the Rainbow Team needs to gradually learn about this world during this time. Fortunately, Mei Xue's tail has all kinds of books, and the little fox can always give them the kind they need most.

Meanwhile, on Rhodes Island, Mei Xue's departure had a profound impact on the older sisters. After losing the little fox, they felt they had lost their appetite.

"Where is Mei Xue? Where did Mei Xue go?"

Xiao Ke was still very hungry after having dinner, so he started looking for Mei Xue. He wasn't allowed to go into the kitchen, so it was better to stay with the little fox and eat until he was full.

"Don't look for Xiao Ke anymore. Mei Xue has gone out and won't be back for a long time."

Sora rested her chin on her hand on the dining table, while idly poking at the food with her spoon in the other hand, wondering if Exusiai had taken advantage of the situation to get Meixue over the past few nights.

Texas may not seem to be bothered, but she is actually quite uncomfortable inside. If it weren't for the fact that Mei Xue and the others were going through Syracuse, she would have insisted on going with them.

However, Skadi was the one who was most affected. In the past, it would have been better. Even if Meixue went out, Skadi could go to sleep at night and dream of being close to Meixue or even doing some unspeakable things.

But now she's been blocked. Without even thinking, she should know that it was those Hai Si who took classes with Mei Xue who blacklisted her. She can no longer rely on such methods to increase the little fox's favorability.

"If I had known then what I know now, I wouldn't have run away..."

Recalling her shameful escape that night, Skadi felt more and more remorseful. If only she had stayed there instead of running away, she could have gotten Mei Xue into her arms and established herself.

(What a disgrace! Did you use all the nutrients in your brain to nourish your chest?!)

Isamara bluntly criticized Skadi, saying that if Skadi had just been more proactive back then, she would have gotten Mei Xue. She was so disappointed in Skadi that she couldn't stand Skadi not sleeping with her!

Rosemary and Witch were also grumbling. Rosemary was angry that Mei Xue hadn't come to her room to stay the night before she left. They had agreed that she would just eat her fill, but Mei Xue still refused, saying that she had to get up early the next day. If Ifrit and Witch hadn't been there, Rosemary would have definitely tied Mei Xue back to her bed.

The latter was frustrated because her curse seemed to have gone wrong. At that time, the hair that Wu Lian got actually belonged to Warfarin. Because of this, Warfarin could fall flat on her face and still has bandages wrapped around her head.

However, Suzuran and Specter don't experience this loneliness at all. One can chat with Meiyuki online, and the other can go to sleep and dream about doting on Meiyuki.

Of course, Surtr didn't think anything of it. She hoped that Mei Xue would come back soon not because she was worried that something might happen to the little fox, after all, Leivatin was all handed over to Mei Xue, whose combat power was top-notch.

The main reason was that Mei Xue had said she would bring her an ice cream machine when she returned, which made Surtr especially excited. However, she thought she should also find a suitable gift to give in return. Hmm, she would give Leivatin away. After all, she and Mei Xue were family, and her sword was also Mei Xue's sword.

Compared to the others, Doctor, Kal'tsit, and Theresa were clearly more concerned about other things, such as how many women Mei Xue would bring back to Rhodes Island this time, and the situation on the Ursus side.

"Currently, Ursus is trying its best to avoid direct conflict with Da Yan, but it is also facing off against Victoria at the border, which has given the Reunion Movement a lot of time to develop."

"Didn't they realize that the Reunion Movement is the biggest threat?"

“I don’t think so. Ursus is currently in political turmoil, with the old and new nobles vying for power and internal conflicts rife. Few people can notice the threat posed by the Reunion Movement, and even if they do, it may not attract their attention. Instead, they might become pawns of others.”

"In the end, they are just a bunch of guys who think they are so great just because they have family wealth. All they think about is exploiting others."

With a lollipop dangling from her mouth, the Doctor was still quite adept at analyzing the situation in the various countries of Terra, even though she had only recently awakened. At present, the most stable regions were Da Yan and Columbia, while Casimir and Letania were secretly vying for power, Ursus and Victoria were in a standoff, Iberia was preoccupied with dealing with Hai Si, and Bolivar was still embroiled in internal strife.

Shelag? Oh, they just got hand warmers, and I heard they've finished repairing a section of the railway.

"Doctor, what's your opinion?"

"Let's take this opportunity to leave Ursus and head to Kazimir first. Victoria and Ursus won't be at war for the time being, so we have enough time to investigate the internal situation of Victoria, at least to find out why Theresis is the regent in Victoria."

This suggestion caused Kal'tsit and Theresa to pause for thought, but they weren't completely clueless; the Doctor's suggestion was indeed the best idea available.

Of course, the main thing is to leave Ursus first, so as to avoid being affected by the conflict between Reunion and the Ursus government. After all, Rhodes Island is one of the suppliers of the Reunion Movement.

Chapter 222 Lateran, I'm Back!

Laterano, though not a large country in terms of area, is a formidable force. Thanks to its technological monopoly on firearms, Laterano's cavalry possesses considerable combat power and far surpasses the quality of ordinary Ursus troops.

"Oh, this place looks really nice..."

Looking at the tall and magnificent city in the distance, Shield, who had switched to the car in front, couldn't help but touch his chin. Such a city that combines classical and modern elements is rare. The sacredness of Laterano can be seen just by looking at its appearance.

"Of course, Laterano's architecture is also second to none in Terra."

Hearing someone praise her hometown, Exusiai was naturally very happy. She also glanced at Mei Xue and noticed that the little fox's gaze seemed to be fixed on the clock tower of Laterano. According to legend, the clock tower was even older than Laterano, but nowadays people think that's just a legend. Who builds a kitchen before building a house?

"Mei Xue, are you curious about that?"

"Hmm...it seems really tall."

The little fox swayed its tail gently, and for some reason, it felt a sense of familiarity with the clock tower, much like a child seeing their favorite toy or an adult seeing a Gundam.

"That's considered a famous historical site in Lateran, but very few people go there. It's a bit of a shame when you think about it."

"It's a real shame, it looks like it hasn't been maintained for a while."

Angelina nodded. As a JK girl with rich emotions, she really liked these historical sites and could take some photos later.
