Talulah, I'm still a child.

Miss Doctor and Precys don't need to come, because Su Xue'er already knows them, as does Kal'tsit. However, Cecilia and Talulah are the two most important friends that Mei Xue later made. Originally, Amiya and Theresa should have come too, no, everyone from Rhodes Island should have come, but Mei Xue thought about it and decided that this was enough. He knew very well what Su Xue'er was like now, and Talulah should be able to handle it. Cecilia should be able to as well now. Number Ten's possession has also brought a lot of benefits to the little angel.

The three quickly reached their destination, a tranquil ocean, and then quietly descended. Mei Xue's umbrella spread out ripples that enveloped them.

The Terrans knew very little about the ocean. Cecilia only felt that the ocean was very dark, and the deeper they went, the more gloomy and dark it felt. Talulah and the little angel felt a sense of unease for no reason, as if something was lurking in the darkness of those places.

But soon, light appeared; those mechanical beams of light illuminated the seabed.

This place has long been a forbidden zone for all life, and even the Sirens dare not approach it casually. Talulah looked around and saw the dead sea creatures lying quietly on the seabed. In the center of the light, there was a... person. Yes, a person. That's how Talulah should describe her.

It was a twisted humanoid figure, still retaining a human appearance, with a tail that had been completely stained black, its facial features were completely distorted, and its body was covered with cracked bloodstains, as hideous as unhealed scars. It seemed to be muttering something.

Fear, death, sorrow, and pain surged through Cecilia and Talulah in an instant. The little angel almost lost her balance and grabbed Mei Xue's hand, hiding behind him. Talulah was able to stand, but judging from her pale face, she was also in pain.

In those few short seconds, Talulah's mind flashed with Alina's death, her own body being possessed by the black snake, Frostnova's death, Misha and Alex's deaths, and even Patriot's death.

Judging from Cecilia's expression, a series of negative images probably appeared in her mind as well.

"plum……"

A voice suddenly echoed in their minds, causing Talulah and Cecilia to instinctively look at the "person," and then at Mei Xue. But the little fox didn't rush to answer; he just scratched his head apologetically at Talulah and Cecilia.

"I'm sorry, my sister and I are completely different. When normal people see me, they only see a bright and happy future and a timeline, but when they see my sister, they see a timeline where all the most terrifying things happen."

This is also why Su Xue'er is ostracized. When people see her, their fear of the unknown and the negativity deep in their hearts are reflected. What they see is not an illusion, but a real event that is likely to happen. If they had not met Mei Xue, then Talulah and Cecilia's fate would really be as they saw.

This is why Mei Xue only brought Talulah and Cecilia. The little angels had experienced what happened before, and Talulah had also vaguely touched that worst timeline. Of course, their ability to withstand it was very strong.

Mei Xue represents all that is good, while Su Xue'er represents all that is bad. Born from the same body, they are yet mutually opposed.

"However, I would still like to introduce you to my sister."

With that, Mei Xue placed the umbrella in Cecilia's hand and then stepped out of the protective circle.

"It's been a long time since I've seen you, sister."

Floating in front of Su Xue'er was the Destruction Mushroom that Mei Xue had given to Amaya and the others. It was because she sensed the familiar aura on it that Su Xue'er instinctively stopped all her reactions. She used to do the same thing, holding back all her power when facing Mei Xue, so as not to appear too terrifying.

"plum……"

An incomplete body, devoid of any reason, completely out of control, left only with the call of instinct. Sensing the approaching aura, the body's instincts told Su Xue'er to come closer, to approach and then devour, for only by devouring could she complete herself.

However, she chose to retreat, not out of fear, but because her deep-seated love outweighed her innate instincts. She was unwilling to get close to Mei Xue, as that would mean she would hurt her younger brother.

"Hey~ I'll hug you~"

Without any fear or apprehension towards that terrifying face, Mei Xue pounced on Su Xue'er and hugged her waist.

"Sister, I've caught you this time."

This time, it didn't let go. The little fox's tail instinctively wrapped around Su Xue'er, preventing her from breaking free. White light overflowed from Mei Xue'er's body, illuminating the entire seabed. Su Xue'er's struggling movements gradually subsided and then stopped.

This was just an empty shell, its twisted shape a result of its greater incompleteness. Mei Xue knew very well that Su Xue'er's consciousness no longer existed inside.

But only when he held her like this could Mei Xue truly feel the warmth he hadn't felt for many years. It was a kind of affection between family members that no one else could give him. His only family member was Su Xue'er. However, fate is not the master of fate, and destiny plays tricks on people. No one expected that the two people who were separated would end up like that.

"Mei...Mei..."

Even after losing her entire soul, she still called out her brother's name; even with only instinct remaining, the only thing etched into her was the inability to harm Mei Xue. She mechanically uttered the name, her tears mingling with the seawater, indistinguishable from each other.

Talulah and Cecilia watched as the two of them became the sole witnesses to this reunion.

The light emanating from Mei Xue gradually spread out, enveloping everything, including Talulah, Cecilia, and Su Xue'er. Everyone was immersed in the light.

If anyone were still conscious at this moment, they would clearly see that something was changing: the Originium veins buried deep in the Terra land, the Originium crystals in the bodies of the infected, and the basic equipment of Terra Industries. This existence, which had harmed countless people but was also the foundation of Terra Industries' technology, also turned into countless rays of light and flew towards Qingqiu.

Originally, in the conception and design of the previous civilization, this existence was intended to be an excellent energy and information carrier. The information contained within would not be lost even after millions of years. Moreover, there is a special information transmission mode between Originium stones, so even if one stone is destroyed, its information will be preserved by other individuals.

However, later, this being, which was developed based on Su Xueer's power, was infected by her leaked power and lost control, even regarding living beings as objects to be assimilated.

Considering that this was a gift left by the previous civilization, Mei Xue deprived it of its ability to infect and assimilate organisms. In this way, if it is preserved, the technology tree of the new Terra world should develop faster. Otherwise, Mei Xue finds it hard to imagine what kind of ridiculously skewed timeline they would take.

In the end, only Mei Xue and Su Xue'er, who was now just an empty shell, remained in the pure white world.

Everyone else went to the new world, but Mei Xue had to stay. What she had to do next was the same as before: disintegrate herself and become the destiny of all worlds.

But this time he won't cut off other possibilities like he did before.

The remaining consciousness of Su Xue'er within those source stones had nowhere to go, so it followed the guidance and returned to Su Xue'er's body. However, this was not much; it only barely restored the empty puppet to its former state.

The black color on Su Xue'er gradually transferred to Mei Xue's body, and the black color on the tip of Mei Xue's tail became more abundant and deeper.

However, even so, Su Xue'er still wouldn't have her own consciousness. She just stared blankly at Mei Xue, her empty eyes frightening. But Mei Xue wasn't afraid; he knew his sister would protect him and wouldn't hurt him.

"Sister, I... I've met a lot of people, they're really, really great people."

"Oh right, my current name is Mei Xue. Actually, that's my original name. But I don't have a surname. I feel like neither Tu Shan nor Su would be suitable. I guess Mei Xue sounds better."

There was no response; she was like a mere puppet. Mei Xue knew she probably wouldn't react.

"The two people who just brought me, the one who is taller than me is called Talulah, and she is also my sister."

However, upon hearing this, perhaps because her possessiveness towards Mei Xue had become an instinct, Su Xue'er couldn't help but pat Mei Xue's face with her tail, but very lightly, as if simply expressing her displeasure.

"Then the one shorter than me is called Cecilia, she's my sister, ah, and also your sister, sister."

This was just a kind of nerve reflex, which was only a small surprise for Mei Xue. The little fox continued.

Fortunately, this time, they were no longer in a hurry. Mei Xue had enough time to speak, and Su Xue'er had enough time to listen.

The little fox recounted everything that had happened since he woke up—how ​​he had been misled, how he had been led astray, his encounter with Talulah—he could talk about both the good and the bad. But he knew very well that if he didn't tell anyone now, he probably wouldn't tell anyone again in the future.

No one knows how much time has passed. In this old world where even time has been broken down, a moment is no different from a year. When Mei Xue gets thirsty from talking, she will eat some apples.

He explained his plans and also the Doctor's plans. The Doctor wanted to go back to the past, while Mei Xue wanted a completely new future. Neither of them was wrong, but for the Doctor, the latter came at too high a price.

There were others: the elegant yet eccentric Lappland and Specter, the goofy Skadi, the jealous Rosemary, the gentle and obedient Lily of the Valley, and the lively Exusiai and her group. The little fox counted on her fingers and realized that she really only knew a limited number of male friends; she could count them on two hands.

They talked for a long time, but for Mei Xue, only a short while had passed. He was surprised to find that even when described in words, ten thousand years was so short. After thinking for a moment, Mei Xue finally climbed off Su Xue'er's lap.

"Sister, I should go now."

"I'm a big fox now, sister, don't worry, I'll take good care of myself. Although I haven't grown taller, and I've even gotten shorter, but..."

Somewhat at a loss for words, Mei Xue wiped away the tears that hadn't yet fallen from the corners of his eyes. He looked at Su Xue'er; this might be the last time he would cry in front of her.

“I’ve met a lot of people, and with them by my side, your brother won’t be alone.”

"Again……"

"Ugh?"

The words that suddenly came out of Su Xue'er's mouth stunned Mei Xue. He looked at Su Xue'er, and his familiar smile appeared on her previously mechanical and blank face.

"Goodbye."

After saying those two words, the last spark of fire in Su Xue'er's eyes went out. It was an obsession that had lasted all along. Ever since she began to regard Mei Xue as her younger brother, she had been constantly worried about how Mei Xue would live after she died. She knew that sooner or later only one of them would be left, and she had no doubt that Mei Xue would be able to survive.

However, she still worried about who Meixue would rely on after she died. Who would she tell about her happy and unhappy moments?

But now, after hearing Mei Xue's story, she knows that her younger brother has found someone else to keep him company, which is good, better than anything else.

Her obsession dissipated, like a wind-up doll, but Su Xue'er still looked at Mei Xue, like a teacher seeing a student off after school, like a mother watching her child go out to play, like an older sister watching her naughty younger brother.

Goodbye, sister.

With a final wave and a final farewell, Mei Xue turned and left without looking back.

The white light completely enveloped the continent of Terra, shining brighter than any star at that moment, echoing another star in the distant Sarkaz legend called Tistene.

The next second, countless beams of light extended out from Terra, exceeding the physical limits of speed and connecting to every star, and the lullaby that Dr. and Mei Xue had composed together echoed throughout the universe.

"A hardworking fox learns to manage the household early, and a happy fox gets married early~ What's in Mei Xue's tail? Countless apples and happiness!"

"Sunshine and rain make wildflowers bloom in the wilderness, spring breeze and love make new buds sprout on the branches, and time flows quietly by."

"I saw the moon's bright light, and I saw the shooting star rushing by. I asked it..."

"Shooting star, oh shooting star, where are you going?"

"Go to the end of destiny, the place where wishes come true, and see what happiness looks like~"

New World 1. Talulah picked her up again.

"Nice to meet you, new viewers! Long time no see, old viewers! I'm your host, Eureka! Today's Lungmen Morning News: The 13th Terran Conference concluded yesterday, with nations reaching an agreement on interstellar exploration; Rhodes Island University, jointly funded by Rhodes Island Pharmaceuticals and Babel Tower Technology, has achieved great success; and the famous author, Ms. Afdokia, has released her new novel, 'The Fox Deity Fell in Love with Me'... Wait, why is this message here...?"

Seeing the somewhat flustered appearance of the host on the large screen in the square, passersby couldn't help but chuckle. This wasn't the first time Eureka had made a mistake during a news broadcast. The key was that this girl always managed to create something interesting for everyone. It would be quite a surprise if there was ever a live broadcast without any mishaps.

However, because of this, the TV station where Eureka works has seen its ratings rise. Originally, she was going to be fired, but unexpectedly, she has become a pillar of the station and is now very popular.

Later, this girl even started a website to stream games under the name of a TV anchor, and the response was exceptionally good. She became popular even overseas, and it is said that Kazimierz even tried to poach her.

Anyway, every time Talulah watches her show while eating, it makes her feel like she's eating a lot, and she can eat three big bowls of rice.

"Longmen Commercial Street, we have arrived. Dear passengers, please do not cause congestion when boarding or alighting..."

As she stepped out of the car with her bag, Talulah didn't look like a member of the Drakian royal family or the niece of the Governor of Lungmen at all. She was a beautiful and elegant career woman who would attract attention anywhere. However, when you saw the ring on her middle finger, you couldn't help but feel sorry that she was already taken.

In reality, Talulah is still single. The ring is just to avoid some unnecessary trouble. Of course, it's not fake. It's a piece she spotted at an auction a few years ago. The silver fox is holding a gemstone, and she is very satisfied with the design.

Rather than saying she was satisfied with foxes, Talulah had always had a special obsession with foxes, especially white foxes, just like her younger sister Chen Huijie.

Speaking of Chen Huijie, even though she is not related to Talulah by blood, for some reason Talulah really likes her. The two have a very good relationship and have grown up together since childhood. They even studied at Victoria Royal College of Higher Education.

Today was the day I had arranged to go shopping with my sister. Chen Huijie is now a police superintendent in Lungmen, while Talulah runs her own company. It's not very big, but it's doing quite well. Because of her good relationship with Alina from the Reunion Movement, her business in Ursus is also thriving.

Speaking of Ursus, more than a decade has passed since the collapse of this behemoth. The Reunion Movement's Reunion Council successfully replaced the Emperor and the aristocracy, but it didn't have much of an impact on the lives of ordinary people. In any case, the people of Ursus are living much better lives than before.

"I remember meeting Huijie here, right? She hasn't arrived yet? Could she have run into some petty thieves on the way again?"

Talulah couldn't help but rub her head. Chen Huijie was good in every way, but this was something that made people not know how to say it. This was not the first time. Every time she went shopping, she would encounter all sorts of unexpected events, either bumping into a thief or seeing someone trying to scam her.

Today is Chen Huijie's birthday, and all the friends I know are coming over tonight. Besides buying gifts for Chen Huijie, I also need to buy groceries and cook dinner. Talulah thought about it and realized that it had been a long time since she had tasted Aunt Wenyue's cooking.

However, as she looked around, Talulah suddenly froze, her sharp, Drak eyes catching sight of a white figure.

He was a very cute boy named Walper. No, calling him a boy doesn't quite fit, because he wasn't very tall. Calling him a young boy would be more appropriate. What was even more striking was his tail—nine tails in total, with snow-white fur and a deep black tip.

And perhaps because she had too many tails, she couldn't fit into ordinary clothes, so her outfit was exceptionally revealing. Keep in mind that the weather wasn't too hot, but her hot pants covered half of her thighs, and she wore white stockings on one foot with delicate little leather shoes, giving her a cute but not overly feminine look. Her black short top only vaguely covered her navel, revealing her lower back and flat, smooth belly, as well as her collarbone, which was also mostly visible. Her tails were given maximum freedom.

Such an outfit might be extremely... cough cough, somewhat shameful on other people, but it looks perfectly appropriate on this little fox, as if he was born to wear it.

The moment Talulah saw the other person, she felt her gaze fixed on them, her heart pounding, and her blood practically boiling.

(What happened?)

Talulah subconsciously touched her chest. Well, she couldn't feel it. Her figure was quite good, but she couldn't take her eyes off her. Such a young child was here alone, and it seemed like no one was with him. She was a little worried.
