Talulah, I'm still a child.

Seeing that this matter seemed impossible to discuss, Amaya felt it was necessary to explain things properly to Meixue.

"Then you tell us, Sister Amaya."

Mei Xue sat down, hugging her tail, and was then picked up by Ghost Shark and placed in his arms to pat her head.

As a non-Siren individual, Ghost Shark is basically just a bystander, only here to play with the little fox. She rarely gets involved in Siren affairs, but these guys actually plan to go to the deep sea to uncover the truth about the existence of the Sea Spirits, which is quite audacious.

"Ahem, first of all, we have given this matter considerable thought."

Seeing that Mei Xue had finally given her a chance to explain, Amaya moved closer to the little fox and began to explain.

The action against the deep sea was a proposal put forward by the Sirens a week ago. After exploring Agor and clarifying the current situation, the issue of the sea's offspring has become a problem that the Sirens have to face. These guys will soon produce enough highly intelligent individuals, and the Sirens' previous deceptive methods may not be effective.

Therefore, the Sirens discussed the issue of the sea creatures. Considering that they did not have enough manpower to completely eradicate this group of wild aquatic creatures, they decided to conduct research first.

After capturing and studying several Sealings, the Sirens learned that there were unnatural structures deep within the Sealings' nests, meaning that the place once bore traces of civilization.

So the question arises: Are the Haisi native species of Terra? Did an ancient civilization create them, or did these uninvited guests later come to regard that place as their home? Did that civilization perish on its own, or was it destroyed because of them?

Regardless of the answer, perhaps the answer to the problem of sea offspring can be found by venturing into the depths of that ocean.

"Master, history lies buried beneath the sea and the land, much of it unknown to us. We hope we can be of help to you; perhaps in some fragment of history we can find a trace of your past."

How old is Mei Xue really? At least much older than the current Terra. Considering the little fox's special nature, perhaps there are records of something related to him in those ancient civilization ruins.

Of course, this was just what Amaya told Mei Xue. In reality, the main reason she wanted to go to that place was to find out the origin of the Sea Si. In fact, Amaya and the others had tried to put the Sea Si into the machine that Mei Xue gave them to see if they could restore the Sea Si to their original appearance.

But they soon realized something was wrong; the machine had killed the sea creature and turned it into a dried-up corpse.

"But it's still very dangerous over there..."

"Whether it's dangerous or not is relative. We sisters are not weaker than the Deep Sea Hunters, but rather much stronger. Two hundred Sirens would be more than enough to conquer a country."

Looking at Amaya, who was patting her chest and making a promise, Ghost Shark, a deep-sea hunter, felt offended, but she couldn't refute her. Although these siren lolis looked small, their fighting power was truly terrifying. Her former captain could probably match the speed of the weakest one among them.

However, if we take it all into account, these sirens, like Mei Xue, belong to a species that cannot be born naturally in this world at present, and they have evolved to a rather terrifying level.

Their robust physiques guarantee basic combat capabilities, their exceptional reaction speed allows them to handle any unexpected situation, and their shared racial mental network enables them to quickly process various inquiries, even detecting any movement in the dark and icy deep sea.

"but I……"

"I know you're still worried, so how about this, you give us a buff?"

"So what should we do?"

As a little fox who usually helps the professor play games and draw cards when she has nothing to do, Mei Xue certainly knows what applying buffs means, but this is not a two-dimensional game, so how would the little fox understand those things?

"It's very simple, you just... um, give me one thing you have on you."

Actually, anything is fine, like a single hair or a tail hair, as long as it's given by Mei Xue.

"Is that good?"

"Yes, anything that's close to you, like a single hair, will do. It may not be of much use to you, but it could be very useful to us in a critical moment."

Because they can control their own luck, these hairs have also absorbed some of Mei Xue's good fortune, but they are useless to Mei Xue. If someone else gets them, their luck will probably improve from E to A+, but of course, this is not permanent.

"Then I... will go back and give it to you."

Mei Xue thought about it and realized that plucking hair in the dream was useless. He could only do it again when he went back. Moreover, for some reason, when Amaya mentioned plucking hair, Mei Xue subconsciously shivered, as if he remembered something terrible.

"So you agree to our actions?"

"If I don't agree, you'll still sneak off anyway... You haven't turned off your inner voice, I heard everything."

The little fox muttered something, making Amaya lower her head in embarrassment. Actually, she did this on purpose so that Mei Xue could hear it, because that's how the little fox was. No matter how fierce she pretended to be, she still cared about their safety and their feelings. If the Sirens really wanted to go, Mei Xue's verbal dissuasion might not be effective.

"I heard that too."

Okay, so it really is Amaya who forgot to turn off her mic.

Looking at Amaya scratching her face in embarrassment, Mei Xue flicked her tail in frustration. Actually, Kal'tsit had mentioned the Sea Sirens to her before. The little fox only knew that it was dangerous there, but she didn't expect that the Sirens would actually plan to go directly to the sea.

"Promise me you'll all come back!"

"Don't worry, your orders are the highest will to the Sirens. We will come back even if it means death."

"Don't say such unlucky things!"

Mei Xue's tail slammed Amaya hard, burying her in the sand. The little fox shook its head helplessly and took out the Destruction Mushroom, which was bigger than itself, from its tail and placed it in front of it.

Looking at the unfamiliar surroundings and people, the Destruction Mushroom subconsciously thought that Mei Xue had encountered some danger, but Mei Xue shook her head before it could self-destruct.

"Wabibabu, Wabi!"

The conversation was so cryptic that even the sirens, who were connected to Mei Xue, couldn't understand what the little fox was saying. All they saw was the Destruction Mushroom in front of them shaking its body and gradually shrinking from two meters tall to the size of a palm.

"If you really encounter any danger, just throw it out and swim as far away as you can!"

Mei Xue solemnly pulled up the Doom Mushroom and placed it in Amaya's hand. It wasn't that he was making a fuss over nothing, but the Doom Mushroom was really quite terrifying. Back when Mei Xue had three tails, it could still create such a big crater, and now it was even more unpredictable.

Furthermore, according to Kal'tsit's research, Mei Xue's combat power was about 3 when she had three tails, and it is now about 3000. So it's hard to say what kind of power this Destruction Mushroom will have.

"This one……"

"You can't eat it, it'll explode."

"OK then."

Amaya seemed a little disappointed, after all, she felt that this thing might taste pretty good, but since it was a life-saving measure given to her by Mei Xue, she should use it sparingly.

"Oh right, speaking of food, I have some snacks that I just packed from Laterano. Let's all have some."

Mei Xue pulled out a bunch of snacks from her tail, much like an old father who always packs some things for his children when he goes to a banquet. The sirens finally breathed a sigh of relief and then gathered around to start eating.

In the real world, Mei Xue's sudden falling asleep made Mostima think of something, but she didn't make a sound. She just subconsciously kicked the staff next to her.

【If you mention it again, I'll make sure time stops when you're with Mei Xue, you believe me?!】

I was just asking what was going on, why is it such a big deal?

Can't you at least show some respect for people?

The one inside the staff rolled his eyes, but could understand Mostima's worries.

[Don't worry, he has simply connected his consciousness to another mental network, much like the empathy you experience in Laterano, but it's clearly more advanced.]

Can you capture the location over there?

There's nothing we can do, but we can determine it's harmless.

Mostima was relieved, but Skadi on Rhodes Island was still in a panic. Specter had inexplicably said "I'm going to a meeting" and then fell asleep, and hadn't woken up yet. Skadi slapped her twice, but she didn't react. If she wasn't still breathing, Skadi would have suspected that Specter was dead.

"Shark, shark, wake up!"

Skadi grabbed Specter's clothes and shook her vigorously. Perhaps this trick really worked, because Specter slowly opened her eyes.

"What's wrong with you... Ouch, why does my face hurt so much?"

Ignoring all the questions, Ghost Shark covered his face as if he had been slapped twice.

"Yes, you fell and tripped on the ground just now."

Skadi made up an excuse that was so fake it couldn't be more convincing. Specter's lips twitched. Even if she, a Deepsea Hunter, had been hit by a car, there was no reason why she would be in so much pain. This guy must have been the one who attacked her earlier.

Forget it, I'll let it go for the sake of our sisterhood. After all, I felt pretty good... no, I felt pretty ashamed for doing that kind of thing to her boyfriend in my dream.

(But Mei Xue's lips still taste a little better than ice cream.)

Ghost Shark stroked his chin, thinking that he could try to snatch the food from the little fox's mouth when he returned... Hehe, watching Mei Xue's shocked and tearful expression was truly a treat.

Anyway, those sirens were afraid of Mei Xue, but she wasn't. The little fox's majesty was just another kind of temptation in front of her, the kind that was dispensable.

Chapter 227 The Unspeakable Secret Under the Table

Having settled things with the Sirens, the little fox, now awake, ate heartily. He had been eyeing Lateran's pastries for a long time, and although they were all on the sweeter side, the taste was truly excellent. For Mei Xue, this was simply paradise on earth.

Even if the little fox could eat so much, he couldn't possibly eat the whole restaurant. But looking at his adorable expression, as if he wanted to swallow the whole plate, Mostima couldn't help but rest her chin on her hand and felt her appetite improve considerably.

Although Mei Xue ate very quickly, her eating manners did not cause any discomfort. On the contrary, although the little fox's eating manners looked hurried, they were surprisingly pleasing to the eye.

"Eat slowly, no one will take it from you, you can order more if you're not full."

Exusiai got up and wiped the cream off Mei Xue's lips. Looking at Mei Xue's lips covered in cream, she felt a little unable to resist, but her older sister was still there, so she had to restrain herself no matter how much she wanted it.

"Hmm~ I also need to pack one for Angelina."

The little fox swayed its tail gently. Since Angelina also lived in the Rhodes Island office, it was inevitable that it would greet her. However, the little fox would definitely come out to play by itself during the day and would act separately from Angelina.

It was only then that Mostima remembered that Angelina and the Rainbow Squad were also staying at the Rhodes Island office. This wouldn't do; it would be difficult to do what they wanted there.

"Meixue, why don't you come stay at my place? That way, Xiaole and I can easily take you to other places to visit tomorrow."

Remien also realized that something was wrong. Mostima and Exusiai were still wary of each other, so it was most appropriate for her to come up with the idea. The main thing was that these two could tolerate it, but she couldn't. It was already rare for her to see Meixue, and if they had to sleep in separate rooms, wouldn't that be torture?

"This one……"

The little fox hesitated for a moment, twitching its ears, unsure whether it should agree.

From a personal perspective, Mei Xue would definitely be happy to stay at Remi's house temporarily, since neither of their parents are there, and the little fox doesn't need to worry about feeling awkward or restrained.

However, before leaving, Kal'tsit specifically instructed Mei Xue to stay at the office, saying that this would ensure her safety and prevent the little fox from being entangled with some strange and disreputable women.

"Is it not allowed?"

"It's not impossible, um... I have a question."

The little fox silently raised his hand, and Mostima nodded to signal him to continue.

"Sister, what does 'disreputable woman' mean?"

"..."

This question successfully caught everyone off guard, including Fiameta, and even the waiter who brought the snacks was stunned.

"No, Mei Xue, why are you asking this?"

"Because Kal'tsit said that living near the office would prevent me from being bothered by shady women, but I don't know what that means."

The little fox's tail swayed gently, looking so cute and adorable that you wanted to pinch it. Mostima and Exusiai glanced at each other simultaneously, then pointed at each other before looking at Meixue.

"Your sister Aneng (Mostima) is a disreputable woman!"

(Neither of you is serious)

Fiameta rolled her eyes. She had originally planned to be a third wheel, but since Mostima was treating, she was determined to make sure he lost out big time.
