The civilization before the collapse, heroes and heroes are reborn with me

Zhu Yufeng's eyes were even more strange. My goodness, Destobia was only one year older than Kosmo, right? Kosmo had learned to run to her to ask for candy when he was a child? And Destobia could really give it to him?

Kosmo: "...Let's not talk about our childhood."

He himself almost forgot what happened at that time...

At this time, Alicia, who was standing next to Zhu Yufeng, teased Kosmo and said, "Oh, I didn't expect that Kosmo, who always looks like a little adult, was actually like this when he was a child~"

How should I put it? Actually, Alicia knew this in her previous life. After all, Desdobia was her good friend. Occasionally, when the girls had tea parties, they would talk about all this. But this did not prevent Alicia from teasing Kosmo now.

"I didn't expect you to be such a demon." Paduo really didn't know. Who told her that she was the last Yingjie to join the Fire Moth? When she joined the Fire Moth, Desdobia had been sacrificed for almost two years. She pretended to be good and wanted candy... It was indeed not like the demon in her impression.

"That's right. Ah Mo was very well behaved back then." Desdobia seemed quite excited when she mentioned Kosmo's childhood. "Although Ah Mo kept saying 'Heroes can't indulge in sweet dreams' after he turned six and said he would no longer eat candy, every time I took out candy, he would want to eat but force himself to hold it back. It was really interesting. I gave it to him but he still didn't want it."

"Desdobia... you don't need to say anything, really..." Kosmo already had an urge to cover his face and flee the scene. He even wanted to cover Desdobia's mouth directly, but who said she was Desdobia? He could only stop her verbally. As for whether it would work... it was up to her.

Lilith watched Desdobia reveal Kosmo's dark history, then looked at Zhu Yufeng, and suddenly said with a smile: "Speaking of this, I have some interesting things about Feng here, do you want to hear it?"

Zhu Yufeng: “?!”

How did it come to him? He didn't care about other people talking about his dark history. After all, he was a middle school student who was rarely seen in public, so other people knew very little about it. But Lilith...

"What is it?!" Kosmo seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw, and he even spoke without hesitation. It would be better for me to die than for my fellow Taoist to die. What's more, he had already died socially. If this was the case, they might as well die together!

"Eh?! Could it be that Feng, who usually looks cool, was also the same as Amo in the past?" Desdobia also became interested, "I want to listen, I want to listen!"

"Lilith..." Zhu Yufeng, who realized something was wrong, tried to stop Lilith, but he was holding Grace now and had no way to cover Lilith's mouth. He could only stop her verbally... Although according to his understanding of Lilith, with her personality of loving to stir up trouble, she probably wouldn't listen.

Alicia had a tangled expression. What should she do? She also wanted to hear more about Feng, and the other side of Feng that she didn't know much about, but Feng didn't seem to want Lilith to tell her about it... And why did she still feel frustrated?

"Hmm... let me think about it..." Lilith touched her chin with her hand, pretending to recall the past, "For example, when it rains and thunders, shout 'shatter the darkness with thunder', and then find a way to add some lightning effects to yourself?"

Zhu Yufeng: “…”

He had an impression of this. After fusing with Emperor Shitian, an emperor-level Honkai beast with lightning properties, he could also discharge electricity. In order to test it out, he ran to a deserted place. When he saw that there was no one around, he...

Lilith must have known this from looking at his memories.

"Wow~" Desdobia looked at Zhu Yufeng with some teasing, but to her surprise, Zhu Yufeng did not show the same depressed and embarrassed expression as Kosmo, but just had no expression as usual.

This certainly doesn't mean that Zhu Yufeng doesn't care. He just knows that if he shows that kind of expression, Lilith will really find it interesting and talk endlessly.

He doesn't want to go to Mars yet, thanks.

Even if Lilith saw through his pretense, she would not continue. After all, the main fun of exposing dark history is to see the reaction of the person involved. If the person involved does not react, even if the speaker has good intentions, the listener will lose a lot of interest. If the listener loses interest, Lilith will naturally stop talking.

Unless, some people want to learn more about themselves, like...

Zhu Yufeng glanced at Alisha, who looked away guiltily.

He knew... Never mind, he already knew how Alicia felt about him. With Alicia's personality, she would want to know more about him. Now she was probably struggling with whether to listen or not. Let her be.

Apart from being able to pretend to be expressionless, what he is best at is accepting the status quo and then playing it badly. There is nothing that can't be solved by playing it badly. If there is, then it is definitely not enough.

Besides, it’s not like he hasn’t suffered social failure before. Before Su went to the Fifth Research Institute, he had already been exposed by these guys once about his dark history. So what if it happened a second time?

Someone is already prepared to give up.

Kosmo's expression became serious.

(As expected of Feng! If I remember correctly, Feng did fuse with Emperor Shitian, an emperor-level Honkai beast with lightning properties. This should also be what Feng tried at that time, right? Shattering the darkness with thunder... and then adding thunder and lightning special effects on the side...)

"...cool." Kosmo couldn't help but say.

Then everyone looked at Kosmo again.

"Amo, you really would like this..." Desdobia complained with empty eyes.

"Boys sometimes have a lot in common on this point." Lilith said with a smile, then glanced at Mei vaguely, "If the relationship is better, you will notice it if you pay more attention."

Mei, who had been silent the whole time, immediately noticed Lilith's eyes, so she began to think about the meaning of Lilith's eyes. It was known that Desdobia and Kosmo were just short of being a couple, and Lilith and Feng seemed to have a good relationship, although it seemed a bit unfair to Alicia to say this...

Kevin's words...

Mei thought for a moment and then said, "I remember Kevin also had this experience..."

If it's something that's... uh, sounds a bit embarrassing for mature people...

Kevin: "?"

Why is it his turn? He hasn’t had enough of Feng’s dark history!

"It was... when we were still in school in Changkong City..." Mei recalled, "One time he seemed to want to put one hand on the wall and spin a basketball with the other hand. He just said the two words 'good morning', but because the wall had just been cleaned and was very slippery, his hand lost its grip and he fell directly to the ground. The basketball bounced on the ground and hit him on the head."

Of course, there are more outrageous things. In short, Kevin used all means to pursue her...

What about skipping classes and waiting for her after class with flowers in hand, what about waiting at the school gate with a rose in his mouth...

In fact, Mei has always remembered these things.

Chapter 152 A Candy Caused...

"I didn't expect you to have this side of you, Kevin." Daisy Dobia said teasingly, but she was actually a little envious. At least Kevin would really take the initiative to pursue her, unlike a certain demon who was always hesitant. He only confessed his feelings once, and if he continued like this, he would have to wait for her to take the initiative in the future.

Never mind, I'm used to it...

Kevin looked away. How should I put it? He was very capable of accepting reality... There was nothing he could do if he didn't accept it...

"At least Kevin is proactive in this regard, which is much better than someone else." Lilith shrugged.

"I'm talking to you, Kosmo. Remember to learn from this." Zhu Yufeng immediately said that he would not take the blame. He took the initiative? How did he take the initiative? It would not affect Lilith if he took the initiative with anyone, but taking the initiative with Lilith...

He has never had any initiative with Lilith, and he is still taking the initiative...

He said that he saw it very clearly, so he just gave up.

Kosmo said he didn't want to take the blame: "...I think Lilith is talking about you."

"You two are the same, aren't you..." Desdobia complained with a squinting look. Normally, these two are not very proactive... But fortunately, Ah Mo has come to his senses a little bit now. As for Feng, if she had to say something, Desdobia actually felt that he really didn't have the choice of taking the initiative...

This is the result of messing with so many girls! Her Ah Mo is more obedient and has basically not had much interaction with other girls. As for boys...

Sometimes, Desdobia feels that Zhu Yufeng not only flirts with girls, but boys as well... It's outrageous.

Padu glanced at Alicia, then quietly slipped to her side and whispered, "Sister Ali, given the current atmosphere...why do I feel like we are a little redundant?"

It felt like there were three couples and the girls were complaining about their unreliable boyfriends, and I really couldn't get a word in.

Alicia looked at Padu with a helpless expression and said, "Is it possible that Lilith did it on purpose?"

What could she say? Zhu Yufeng had pursued her, but that was in her previous life. Now that Mei and Desdobia were here, could she say anything? Lilith was probably talking about something in her previous life, but she was able to cover it up cleverly without arousing suspicion. As for Zhu Yufeng's dark history... Alicia really didn't know much.

What else can be done?

Just give up.

Mei also noticed the strange atmosphere. She glanced at the speechless Ai Lishiya and Zhu Yufeng, then looked at the smiling Lilith. After thinking for a while, she decided in her heart: "I'm sorry, Ai Lishiya, in order to prevent Feng and Kevin from developing any strange relationship, I think Lilith is more reliable."

After all, it seemed that Lilith could really control Feng... and she also subconsciously felt that these two people seemed to be a couple...

Zhu Yufeng's body stiffened. Just now, he felt that he was blamed for something terrible.

Just when he was about to say something, a small hand holding a peeled candy reached under his chin: "Brother Yufeng, do you want some candy? Sister Desdobia's candy is very sweet."

Zhu Yufeng lowered his head, looked into Grayshu's clear eyes, and slowly asked, "Why did you suddenly say this?"

The lively atmosphere suddenly became quiet, and everyone looked over here. Zhu Yufeng would rather Lilith continue to talk about his dark history...

"Gresh?!" Kosmo's eyes widened. Would Gresh take the initiative to give candy to others? He had never been treated like this before!

Then Kosmo remembered the time when Zhu Yufeng taught Grayshu to say "Roar, Kosmo". He hadn't been hugged by Zhu Yufeng yet, and for a moment he felt like he had fallen out of favor.

"It seems that little Grayshu really likes Feng. So, Feng, you are actually very popular with children?" Desdobia seemed to have some envy in her tone. "If I remember correctly, sometimes when I went to take care of Ling temporarily, although Ling often said that Feng was a big bad guy, she actually liked Feng very much."

Zhu Yufeng: “…”

Sometimes when Sakura didn't have time, he would be the one to answer the phone. Sakura would also sometimes invite him to her house, and when Sakura occasionally looked at him, there was indeed a strange look in her eyes as if he had stolen her sister.

What do you mean he is very popular with children? He only likes those children who are very well behaved and not annoying. Gray and Astaroth belong to this category. Although Ling is a little lively, she is sensible and knows her limits. In the last life, she even took care of Ying in the end... Who wouldn't like such a child?

As for naughty kids, he won't spoil them.

The question now is, how can he eat the candy that Grace gave him? He is holding Grace with both hands, so if he wants to eat it, he can only...

Forget it, Grayshu is just a child. Just accept the child’s kindness.

Zhu Yufeng thought so, lowered his head slightly and opened his mouth, and Grayxiu stuffed the candy directly into his mouth.

Hmm... quite sweet.

Alicia: "..."

Why was she actually a little envious of Grace?

Speaking of eating sweets, my impression is that Feng rarely eats sweets. He would only eat some cake or something like that when other people have their birthdays. The coffee he drinks is even bitter coffee without sugar.

She made lovers’ chocolates for Valentine’s Day, and Zhu Yufeng did eat them, but other than that, she didn’t see him eat any other sweets.

"Actually, Feng also likes sweets, but I didn't even realize that at the time. It's all thanks to Yu Duchen." Lilith stood beside Alicia and said softly, "After all, when I knew him, he rarely ate sweets. After the fusion warrior surgery, he seldom ate sweets because of the side effects."

"Why?" Alicia was a little confused. "In such pain, without Mebius's medicine, why didn't he eat sweets?"

Sweet snacks can make people happy and thus fight against the side effects and pain caused by super-mutation factors, right? Why does this guy not eat sweets?

"Because he felt that once he got used to the sweet taste, he couldn't adapt to the bitter taste." Lilith smiled helplessly, "Maybe different people have different ideas, right? Later, after the tragedy of restraint, he almost lost all his sense of taste because of the pain caused by the side effects. He could only feel the two stimulating tastes of bitterness and spiciness."

After a pause, Lilith continued, "Just like his current routine is as regular as a robot, in fact, before he came to this world, his routine was simply horrible, just like the way many Fire Moth warriors you know behave during their holidays, all he did was turn his day and night upside down, racing against the devil."

"He abandoned all of these..." Alicia looked at Zhu Yufeng and said softly, "At that time, even I often forgot that he was just an ordinary boy. I watched him become a hero in the eyes of everyone step by step, but like everyone else, I didn't notice those personal symbols that once belonged to him that he abandoned."

"That's not right. When he abandoned his old symbol, he also formed a new symbol that still belongs to him." Lilith shrugged. "Perhaps you will think that if there was no Honkai, he would not have to bear this heavy fate. He would still be an ordinary student, and he would be admitted to a university that is neither good nor bad, find a job that is neither good nor bad, and live a plain life without having to bear the burden of the world."

"But if there was no collapse, perhaps there would be no story of the Thirteen Heroes of Chasing Fire, and there would be no... meeting between him and me." Alicia said, "I know what you want to say, and I can give you my answer."

Alicia looked into Lilith's eyes and said, "I must admit that I don't understand Feng as well as you do, and I can't be as willful as you. Even though he met me first, the fact is that you did accompany him for a longer time... But this definitely doesn't mean that I will let go or anything, because I really like him. As an ordinary girl, I have also said this to him. I will get to know him more and more little by little, and witness this journey of chasing fire with him again. Even if the final outcome remains unchanged, at least this time I will finish it with him."

"Heh..." Lilith smiled, "That's a good resolution..."

"By the way, why are you telling me this?"

"Well, my position has been very clear from the beginning." Lilith held the back of her head and said indifferently, "You are your lover and I am my lover. There is no conflict, right?"

Alicia: "..."

It turns out that Lilith was serious at that time...

Padu tried to eavesdrop: "..."

If Sister Lilith said so, then does she have a chance?

"You said that you would get to know him little by little, but there are many things he won't tell you, and you can't even tell that he used to like sweets." Lilith continued, "Plus it's a bit boring for me to be the only one who knows about this, so I'll tell you. It's not something that can't be said."

Alicia: "..."

It was indeed not something that could not be said, but when Lilith said this, and acted so nonchalantly, it gave people a sense of calmness that she had already grasped the overall situation. No, it seemed that she had always grasped everyone...

"You finally became a human being as you wished, but I am different. I don't think I belong to the category of normal human beings." Lilith said lightly, "If I hadn't met Feng, I would probably be bored to death or something. After all, I like disputes and blood."

As Lilith spoke, the aura around her became extremely oppressive again, but only for a moment, she restrained her malice and continued, "This is actually thanks to the Eighth Herrscher. In my dream, I found that as long as Feng was by my side, nothing mattered."

"So, it was at that time that you realized your feelings?" asked Alicia.

"Yeah, but I'm not sure exactly when this feeling came about. I don't care. Anyway, the result is that I like him." Lilith spread her hands. "Do you think you would be obsessed with this?"

Alicia: "..."

She was really troubled...

While Lilith and Alicia were talking and Pado was eavesdropping, Zhu Yufeng was here.

Kosmo kept looking at Zhu Yufeng, and Grace noticed Kosmo's strange look, so she peeled another candy and held out her hand: "Kosmo, do you want one too?"

Desdobia looked at Kosmo and said with empty eyes: "Amo...you are not jealous of Feng over this matter, are you?"

Kosmo: "...I didn't."

And is jealous the word for this?

(Should I accept the candy from Grayshu? If I accept it, wouldn’t that be a disguised admission that I want to eat the candy from Grayshu? Then, other people’s opinions of me will become strange, right? I’m just… a little confused about when Grayshu and Kaede became so close… just confused… Desdobia’s use of the word jealousy is a bit exaggerated.)

Zhu Yufeng was too lazy to guess what was going on behind Kosmo's expression. He was probably just dwelling on something that didn't make much sense. What was so unacceptable about learning from him? Just give up.

It couldn't go on like this, so Zhu Yufeng said, "Okay, Kosmo, this is for you, Grayshu. It's just a child's gift, don't worry too much about it, just accept it."
