"real."

The girl in front seemed to explain subconsciously: "It's... a little slippery and sticky, just like slime. I... I don't like slime very much."

As soon as Yin Xiamo said this, many uncles who were eating around looked over here.

I quickly signaled the girl with my eyes to stop talking.

"I don't like slime either."

A long time ago, my impression of the creature "Slime" has always been a "novice monster". For example, in the classic game "Magic Tower" that I played when I was a child, the slime in it was a monster that was purely for gold coins.

When I grew up, my impression of slime was more of "sticky" and "able to transform at will", and "able to transform at will" means that it can run anywhere. In some less formal games, this feature is usually infinitely magnified by the author to expand the gameplay.

However, this inherent impression sometimes changes. For example, in a certain animation about a slime swallowing a dragon, or in an animation about someone beating slimes every day and finally becoming invincible, my impression of slime is that of a beautiful girl.

"Um... my age is 6180 years old."

When they were almost done eating, Yin Xiamo suddenly whispered, "In the other world, the demons are a long-lived species. I used to be a member of a branch of the demons that was closer to immortality. If I were to convert that age to humans, I'd be about 19 years old."

The large group of diners around looked over here again.

"Really?"

I quickly covered up: "As an elf, am I still considered a loli at over 2,000 years old?"

Then the diners around looked at them as if they were two stupid lolis.

"No more talking, let's eat first. I...ah, I'm a little sleepy. I didn't take a nap."

"Um……"

It took about ten minutes for Yin Xiamo and I to finish all the food we ordered.

When we walked out of the fast food restaurant, I saw that the high school girl who had just served us food seemed to have finished her homework, and she looked at me and Yin Xiamo with a very complicated expression.

"We were treated like little birds swimming around in a six-meal boat."

Walking along the street outside the restaurant, I took out a pen and paper from my backpack and wrote down the various shops nearby, while complaining, "They are all Chuunibyou."

Well, there is a fast food restaurant on the left when you come out of the vegetable market. The hygiene in the restaurant is good, the products are of good quality and low price, and you can get soup and rice for free, as well as white porridge and mung bean porridge. It has a five-star recommendation index.

Then, coming out of this store, there is a store selling preserved fruits, there is a battery car repair shop, and here is a fruit store...

"It's okay. When I first came here, people nearby all had that expression on their faces when they heard me speak."

As she spoke, Yin Xiamo came over and took a look at the notebook in my hand: "You actually still have this habit? Isn't this too cute?"

"You describe an uncle as cute?"

I quickly recorded the surrounding scene in my notebook, and my eyes fell on a supermarket not far away: "Is this the supermarket with cheap cooked food that Elodie mentioned?"

"Well, there are some fruit vendors around the supermarket, and next to it is a large shopping mall that sells clothes and shoes."

Yin Xiamo pointed to the casual summer clothes on her chest and said, "I bought this there for a few dozen dollars."

"Okay, that's all for today's exploration."

I took out my phone and looked at the time: "Let's go back."

"Aren't you going to the supermarket?"

"We're running out of time. I'll go buy some food and take a nap before I make dinner for you and Elodie. I'll have to go to the coffee shop."

I put away my pen and paper: "By the way, Momo, do you still remember your birthday?"

"Birthday?"

"It's the day you were born. It's a very important day. It happens once every year in 365 days."

"The calculation of 'year' over there is different from here. Over there... a year is not 365 days."

The girl seemed to calculate in her mind for a while: "May 5st."

"what?"

I was a little surprised: "Is this the converted date?"

"Yeah, but not my birthday."

Yin Xiamo shook her head: "The demons don't have the concept of birthdays. I don't even remember when I was born. For me, the only 'particularly important day' is that day..."

"That day?"

"You...the date he took me away."

Oh... that's the date when you were picked up by the hero as a little devil, right? Converted to the Earth calendar, it's May 5st?

"That means it's been less than a month."

"Yes."

"Is this your 6181st birthday?"

"Ah."

Wow, more than six thousand years.

As an author, I have a very clear concept of this time.

It is now 2022, which is a globally unified calendar for mankind, but this does not mean that human history is only more than two thousand years.

Let’s not talk about two thousand years, but take some more specific numbers as an example - the first general-purpose computer was born in 1946. How many years have passed since then? Less than years.

In less than eighty years, computers have gone from being large machines that would fill several rooms to being small gadgets that can be easily carried in a school bag.

Let’s take a closer look at what the world was like twenty years ago, in 2002?

In 2002, not every family could afford a smartphone, let alone a regular black-and-white screen phone.

In just twenty years, people's living habits have shifted from the real world to the virtual network. The Internet has developed rapidly, and almost everyone has a smartphone.

Let’s look further back in time. Two hundred years ago was the Qing Dynasty, two thousand years ago was the Han Dynasty, and six thousand years ago... the Stone Age?

I'm not quite sure how long the "hero" as an ordinary person can survive in the other world. I only know that six thousand years is a very long time span for the human species, so long that we have gone from primitive people who played with stones to modern people who are inseparable from their smartphones every day.

The Death Girl lived for such a long time, maybe the "Hero" was just an insignificant moment in her life.

However, for the sake of this relationship... she inherited the hero's last wish, destroyed the Demon King, and even transformed herself into the concept of "death" in this world and chased after him.

In the past six thousand years, she might have met many people who were similar to the hero and who were truly kind to her, but this little devil... Yin Xiamo didn't even look back.

"what happened?"

On the side of the road, after noticing my gaze, the Death Girl next to me looked over and asked, "What disrespectful thing are you thinking about?"

"Ah? No...I didn't think about anything."

"So now that you know my age, pet, you should understand that resistance is useless, right?"

Yin Xiamo crossed her arms and said, "Submitting to me obediently is the right thing to do."

"You look like the devil loli in the book who pretends to be an adult but is finally defeated by the hero..."

"What did you say?!"

"Hey! I...I was just kidding, don't take out something that big..."

"..."

On the way back, I went to the market next to the vegetable garden and bought some fresh clams and mustard greens, planning to make shell and mustard greens soup in the evening, followed by beef and sauerkraut made by a kind-looking old lady, and finally a handful of sweet potato leaves freshly picked from the fields and various condiments such as garlic, ginger, and onions. I estimated the amount for three people and spent several dollars in one go.

Two dishes and a soup. I won’t eat too much, so the leftovers will definitely be enough for dinner for two girls, Yin Xiamo and Elodie.

"So hot……"

Back in the house, I put the clams in clean water, added some salt to let them spit out the mud and sand in their bodies automatically, cut the beef into pieces and marinated it with seasonings, cut the sauerkraut, picked the sweet potato leaves and soaked them in water, washed my hands, went to the bathroom to take a quick shower, and returned to my little room.

At this time, the temperature on the mobile phone shows that the average temperature in Minaminagi District, Kamihama City is 30 to 35 degrees. The sun is shining brightly, and the temperature has already entered the full summer.

Elodie should be at work by this time, right?

I washed my face, drank some water, went to the bathroom and changed my sanitary napkin. I returned to the room in my slippers and looked at the air conditioner above my head. After a moment of hesitation, I sent a message to my editor:

[How much is the electricity bill here? ]

After a while, Elodie sent a reply: [Three cents, what's wrong? ]

[A bit hot]

Before noon, I thought that my stomach couldn't stand the cold during my period and that it would be fine if the weather was warmer. I didn't expect that hot weather would also have a certain impact on that organ.

Just like now... I feel like I'm in a steamer in the room. I'm inexplicably irritated, and because I'm wearing a sanitary napkin underneath, I'm sweating a little and feeling very uncomfortable.

[Turn on the air conditioner, is it broken? ]

Elodie sent an emoticon package of Jin Guanzhang "Don't tag me, I'm a gamer, how do I know how to get to the brothel": [You don't have to pay for electricity, as long as you don't waste electricity intentionally, you can use the electrical appliances in the house as you like]

Okay, I feel relieved after hearing your words.

I replied "Thank you, landlord", took the air conditioner remote control, thought about it, set the temperature to 25 degrees, cooling, and turned it on.

"Buzzing..."

After a while, the temperature in the huge room dropped to a very comfortable level. I was so comfortable that I jumped directly onto the bed and rolled around in my arms under the quilt.

At this moment, the half-closed door of the room was pushed open with a creaky sound, and Yin Xiamo walked in from outside holding a pillow. I was so scared that I quickly closed my open legs and covered my skirt.

"You, you, you...what are you doing?"

"Take a nap with you."

The girl glanced at the air conditioner above the room and said, "It's a waste of electricity to turn on two air conditioners."

After saying that, the guy threw the pillow onto my bed with a "puff" sound: "Move it a little further in."

"Why are you so confident?"

I felt my brain freeze, especially when I saw Yin Xiamo's disheveled hair and the white skin near the chest of the girl under her clothes. I always felt like I had really become a hamster-like little pet with no human rights who could be caught and rubbed at any time: "I... I won't care about you entering someone else's room without knocking, what's the point of this tone of no negotiation!"

"Because I'm not negotiating."

Yin Xiamo yawned: "This is a notice."

"So domineering!"

"Yes."

Yin Xiamo sat directly on my small bed: "This time there is no taboo between men and women. What excuse do you want to use?"

"I never said that, okay!"

I didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I'm not a hero! Even if you say I'm his reincarnation, I have no memory of my past life. We can definitely be considered two different people!"

"That counts as two people."

The girl said seriously, and put her little head in front of me: "I'm not the demon over there, and you're not a hero, is that right?"

I carefully shrank into the corner: "Yes...that's it."

"Then let's start over. We are all girls, or as the saying goes here, we are good friends."

Yin Xiamo leaned towards me again: "Is that right?"

I subconsciously said, "No... that's right."

"Elodie is also our good friend and bestie, right?"

"Is such that……"

"Then it's understandable that I come to your place to use the air conditioning in order to save electricity for my good friend Elodie, right?"

"It's understandable."

"I'm sleepy now. Is it okay for me to take a nap with you?"

"No problem... Wait, there seems to be a problem?"

"We are all girls, it's okay."

This time, the girl didn't explain to me. She took the towel blanket from the bed and lay down directly on the outside of the bed.

Because I have been living alone since I was a child, when I rented a house, I didn’t consider that I would have a companion like a "couple", so when I lived in a small apartment, the bedding I bought were all single-person ones.

The pillow is only big enough for one person to sleep on, the mat is only about 1.3 meters wide, and even the quilt is only big enough for one person.

Now we have moved to Elodi's room. The bed in this room is also a single bed. Yin Xiamo's lying position directly blocks all my "escape routes".

"Why are you still standing there?"
