Talulah, I'm still a child.

But now that Mei Xue was sitting right next to him, he needed to carefully consider the consequences of his attitude, because the little fox was holding a Destruction Mushroom in its arms. It wasn't there to eavesdrop; it was clearly a threat.

"Theresis, I'd like to see the child, may I?"

Theresa's eyes were shining. She was becoming more and more like the younger sister Theresa remembered, the gentle and kind Theresa who was full of expectations for the future. Perhaps it was because Mei Xue was by her side that the Sarkaz anger within her was able to be contained.

The present Theresa, or rather, the body that contains the will of the entire Sarkaz, those ancient souls, still linger on this land.

"An heir of a foreign race, ha, utterly weak, capable of..."

"Shut up!"

Seeing that Mei Xue was about to throw the Destruction Mushroom over, the Shapeshifter kicked the Blood Demon Lord in the knee. "Damn it, you're the one who talks too much here and doesn't even know your place. Didn't you see that little fox on the other side? Even the Pardoner is keeping quiet and not saying a word. You still dare to start a fight? You're tired of living."

"My relationship with Rhodes Island is one of life and death... but it's not impossible."

Seeing Theresia's gaze, Theresis subconsciously chose to change her words, certainly not because she saw Mei Xue preparing to smear the Destruction Mushroom on her face.

"In that case, I'll go."

As a neutral being, it's not unreasonable for the King of Carrion to go and pick up Amiya and the others; he also wants to see what kind of successor Theresa has chosen.

With Mei Xue around, it's like a sword of Damocles is hanging over everyone's head. This forces them to think about what they should and can do. Because of the Babel Tower incident, the conflict between Theresis and Rhodes Island is irreconcilable. In all the possibilities Mei Xue sees, he is destined to die alone on that throne.

Mei Xue wouldn't have minded before, since Theresis and he weren't that close, but now that she knows a bit about him, she feels it's a bit of a pity.

If the nations of Terra lived in peace, without so much suspicion and mutual attacks, the world wouldn't be predominantly gray. Mei Xue's tail swayed gently, feeling quite helpless, but she quickly rallied.

The Doctor is coming, and her memories should be returning as the other world connects with this one. The Doctor foresaw this, but there were some things she overlooked.

The little fox looked at the silver anchor box in its hand, glanced around, and gently opened it.

In that instant, countless streams of information flashed across the screen of Rhodes Island's central control terminal, followed by an alarm sounding throughout the entire island.

[Warning, warning, extremely large-scale anomalous spacetime fluctuations detected. A special spacetime fluctuation point detected, no record. Requesting observation... No relevant equipment detected. Planetary system connection unresponsive. PRTS calling Controller One.]

"what happened?"

"It's so noisy."

The Rhodes Island operators, bewildered, scratched their heads in confusion, but Kal'tsit stood up calmly and walked towards Rhodes Island's central control room without hesitation.

As Mei Xue's familiars, the Siren girls also clearly sensed that something was changing in this world. Unlike others, they did not exist in another parallel world. If it weren't for the fact that they were nominally under Mei Xue, the merging of the two worlds would have caused them to disappear into the cracks of history, just like a certain snake-skinned monster in Kamen Rider Build.

However, compared to these unusual changes, these usually carefree and silly girls were more curious about the newly joined sisters. Although Eureka's starting point was low, drinking Mei Xue's blood directly was enough to allow her to leap to the same level as the Sirens, so everyone was quite welcoming.

But for Eureka, this was torture. When she tried to take a nap, a bunch of noisy chatter would pop into her head. The Sirens were incredibly enthusiastic.

Even someone as oblivious as Eureka noticed something amiss: the sky seemed to have become more gloomy than before.

The little harem of Mei Xue, who were drinking in the afternoon, also heard the alarm, but it stopped quickly. Wu Lian frowned a little, feeling that the malice around her had lessened a lot.

Rosemary didn't seem to notice anything unusual. With Mei Xue not around, she had little appetite and could barely eat. She just looked at the calm Lily of the Valley in front of her and was still resentful that her friend had not only run away but also gotten so far ahead of her. The fox fairy's bride—she had heard Huang explain this identity before, so she was basically set for life.

However, this wasn't the first time Linglan had been stared at with such resentment. On the contrary, she felt a little proud. Who would have thought that she could find Meixue by simply adding a random online friend?

Now, Linglan was curious about what Su Xue'er meant by her inner "I see" earlier.

Chapter 117 Amiya: I've Time-Traveled?

"Amiya, Amiya, wake up! You're going to be late for school!"

"Well……"

The gentle voice was just like the one who had told her bedtime stories countless nights before. During the time she lost them, Amiya dreamed about them every night.

She dreamt that Theresa sat by her bedside, with so much to say, but she was no longer there; the Doctor would also stay by Amiya's bedside, but she never said a word, and her eyes always held complex emotions that Amiya couldn't understand. She couldn't read them, and only felt sadness and helplessness.

Kal'tsit stayed with her. Amiya knew she was exhausted. She kept pushing her body and energy to the limit. The Tower of Babel collapsed after losing Mei Xue, the Doctor, and Theresa. The newly formed Rhodes Island lacked manpower, allies, and a foundation. Everything had to start from scratch, and Kal'tsit shouldered everything.

As for Mei Xue, Amiya felt the most sorry for him. The Doctor and Kal'tsit once told her that every time someone else's wish was granted, it meant an inescapable death for Mei Xue. He would be completely disintegrated, broken into countless threads of fate, and then woven into a new possibility. She often dreamed of Mei Xue holding that crimson apple, sitting on the sofa, watching the Doctor and Kal'tsit argue endlessly, watching Theresa sigh and rub her forehead, and then teasing her with his snow-white and soft tail.

Sometimes, young Amiya had a strange intuition that Mei Xue and herself, and everyone else, seemed to be in different worlds, and that the little fox was like an observer, yet would occasionally interact with everyone.

"Amiya, if you don't get up soon, you'll get scolded by Kal'tsit."

"!!"

Upon hearing this, Amiya's ears immediately perked up like exclamation marks, and she instantly woke up from the bed. The ceiling and room layout were familiar, but what was strange was the bustling cityscape outside the window. A sense of incongruity arose in her heart, and Amiya frowned, feeling that something was wrong.

Did you stay up late last night?

"Theresia..."

It was only then that Amiya realized who was sitting on the edge of the bed. She was stunned for a moment, and finally discovered the source of the incongruity.

"What's wrong, Amiya? Okay, get up, breakfast is ready. Eat and then go to school. I'll have Theresis drive you."

"Ah... um."

No, this shouldn't be the case. Theresa is dead, Theresis is the enemy, she... yeah, what was she supposed to do?

"If you're not feeling well, just ask Kal'tsit for leave, and I'll take you to the hospital."

"I……"

Isn't Kal'tsit a doctor? No, Kal'tsit is her homeroom teacher and also the head of the grade. Theresa is also the principal. She is... No, that's not how it is. Even if she can't give a correct conclusion, Amiya is certain that this is definitely not the place she should be.

But in a daze, she wanted to ask herself, isn't this kind of world good?

This is a very peaceful world, without Oripathy or much conflict. She was adopted by Theresa and is now attending Rhodes Island First Middle School. Theresa is the principal, Theresis is the dean of studies, and Kal'tsit is the head of the grade. However, Theresis and Kal'tsit have argued quite a bit. The Blood Lord is the biology teacher, and he dislikes Amiya. He is arrogant and, although he and the chemistry teacher, Miss Blood Lord, are of the same race, they are particularly at odds and have fought quite a bit.

The King of Carrion and ACE are school security guards, and Mr. Patriot is a security guard at the neighboring Integrated Second Middle School, so there's nothing unacceptable about that.

Reviewing her memories was quick; in just over ten seconds, Amiya basically understood her situation. Everything seemed incredibly peaceful, like a dream world. She wondered if everything she had experienced before was a dream? If so, then the Doctor and May... um?

"Miss Theresa, do you... know the Doctor and Mei Xue?"

When Amiya asked this question, Theresa looked puzzled and confused. She shook her head, indicating that she did not know such a person.

Seeing her reaction, Amiya panicked. Things were not as good as she had imagined.

"How could there not be... Then... what about Ms. Talulah, the leader of the Reunion Movement?"

"Isn't Ms. Kasena the principal of Integrated Middle School? I remember the student council president is named Ino, not Talulah."

Why is this happening?

Amiya looked out the window. The sky was still clear and the sun was shining brightly, but she suddenly felt that this world was too terrible, or rather, it made her feel like something was missing in her heart.

However, Amiya was unaware that all her reactions were being observed. Resting her chin on her hand on the table, Mei Xue reached out and switched the view to Kal'tsit's side. After checking several times, she found that only Amiya's situation was not right; she seemed not to be fully synchronized with that world.

As for the other person, the little fox looked at the door with some distress, pouting unhappily, its tail wagging unhappily.

"What... you still remember me?"

"I could forget anyone but you, hehe."

Slightly embarrassed, Miss Doctor closed the door behind her, walked to Mei Xue's table, sat down, and unceremoniously picked up a slice of apple and began to eat.

"Why do this?"

She got straight to the point and asked her question. The doctor seemed very casual as she walked from the hall to Mei Xue's room without encountering a single person along the way. She had noticed something was wrong before entering the city. How could no one have entered the city?

As expected, after the King of Carrion led them into the city, there was no one on the streets along the way, and the whole city seemed to be dead. When everyone arrived at the Western Holy King's Hall, they were greeted by Mei Xue with golden eyes. After that, the Doctor felt dizzy and woke up still in reality.

As Mei Xue's former companion, she knew very well how to use Mei Xue's power, which is why she was able to guide the little fox in using her power when she first met Mei Xue during the Babel Tower period.

She had seen what Mei Xue was watching and understood that it was one of the ways Mei Xue used her power.

"It's just a simple experiment, it was your suggestion, Doctor."

"...A campus comedy about teenage romance? You even remember that?"

Slightly embarrassed, Miss Doctor scratched her head. She couldn't possibly have forgotten, since her memory had just returned, so she remembered everything very clearly, especially the time she spent with Mei Xue.

"I will never forget a word you said, so, darling, don't even think about trying anything funny."

Mei Xue winked at the Doctor, her tail swaying proudly behind her, and even beckoned with her hand in a seductive manner.

(What a seductive little vixen!)

Looking at Mei Xue like this, the Doctor couldn't help but sigh in her heart. The little fox was now the epitome of a fox spirit. Not to mention how deadly her innocent face and alluring eyes were, her strangely endearing temperament alone was quite remarkable.

Damn it, how did the innocent, naive, and easily fooled Mei Xue become like this? Back then, it was easy to trick Mei Xue into marrying me with just a few words. Who corrupted her?

"The person in front of me who's overthinking things."

The restoration of memories brings an increase in experience and knowledge, as well as a deeper understanding of each other. Therefore, Mei Xue understood the doctor's heart, and the doctor also guessed his plans.

However, upon closer reflection, it became clear that Mei Xue had indeed been led astray by her. The PhD student lowered her head somewhat embarrassedly, her embarrassment palpable.

However, given the doctor's thick skin, she wouldn't dwell on it for too long. She quickly looked up and then looked at Mei Xue, who was still hesitating whether to continue pretending to be a vixen or to be an innocent little fox.

"I won't let you do that."

Even though they were standing so close, and both of them were smiling, the doctor's tone was unusually firm, and Mei Xue nodded with a smile.

"Ok, I know."

They had known what the other wanted for a long time, but they kept it to themselves and carried out their plans step by step.

That's why the Doctor sent Sargon's nameless assassin to assassinate Afdokia when Meixue entrusted her with an important mission, and why she had Miss Blood Demon try to stop Xiaoge from going to Rhodes Island. Of course, these were only part of her plan, but it was indeed disappointing that none of them could delay Meixue's plan.

"Um... I don't understand what you're saying."

When Talulah made a sound, the Doctor realized that she had been sitting on the bed not far away the whole time, even wearing pajamas. However, she hadn't said much, and the Doctor had only been paying attention to Mei Xue and hadn't looked at her surroundings.

"You didn't send her in?"

"In that case, when Sister Talulah wakes up, she will definitely grab my face and rub it hard."

Covering her face, the little fox seemed to have already foreseen that future. However, the Doctor knew in his heart that this was probably just Mei Xue's little selfishness. There was no need for Talulah to be sent in, and she also played an important role in the game between the two.

"So, what exactly are you talking about?"

Because she couldn't see the screen that Mei Xue and the Doctor were seeing, Talulah was quite puzzled by their conversation. However, seeing her little husband flirting with another woman right in front of her made Talulah somewhat unhappy, even though this Doctor had known Mei Xue for much longer than she had.

"No, sister. Although the Doctor did know me before you, it's not just that."

Mei Xue waved her hand, then folded her ears down and stuck them to her head before Talulah could grab them, while also holding her tail to avoid being harmed by the two of them.

"By the way, is Cecilia asleep?"

"Yes, I'm sleeping soundly."

Upon hearing Talulah's answer, the Doctor paused for a moment, then immediately stared at Mei Xue with unimaginable shock in her eyes.
