Maria really wanted to switch back with Suri, but she was just a novice driver, and given the current situation, Maria wasn't confident that she could properly handle the car.

So all she could do was watch in her mind as Su Rui drove recklessly, screaming incessantly to try and remind him to slow down.

Fortunately, although Suri's driving was dangerous, she didn't hit anything along the way. Her driving caused some chaos, and eventually the van stopped in Zofia's yard, where Suri replaced it with Zofia's perfectly intact car.

After regaining her body, Zofia shakily stood up, picked up her aunt, and almost fell down with her as they walked:

'Suri, didn't you say your driving skills were great? You even won first place in the race!' How can this driving skill be considered great?!

"My number one ranking is beyond doubt!"

'What kind of competition did you participate in?' This kind of competition is extremely harmful!

Then Maria learned from Suri:

"Shooting is allowed in this kind of competition, and it's considered within the rules if your opponent dies. So you just need to take out all your opponents. However, this damn system sometimes prevents some vehicles from overloading and exploding, and they even have invincibility frames. You have to rely on skill to win. Damn it!"

Volume 5, Chapter 267: Defeat the opponent, and I will be number one!

'How could such an absurd competition exist?'

Maria couldn't help but be surprised by the match Suri mentioned: 'Now I finally understand how you won your matches, Suri.'

It can only be said that Su Rui's first place was probably not due to her driving skills, but rather because she defeated her opponents:

'How did you defeat those enemies who had invincible health?' Maria was also curious about this. Since Suri mentioned 'invincible health,' it must mean that they were impossible to defeat in some way, right?

"It's quite troublesome. Even when I slow down the car, I can't hit the person in the driver's seat or they don't react at all. I can only use forced stop to slow them down and then overtake them myself."

What is mandatory parking?

"It's hacking technology. I can directly control the systems of those vehicles and activate the brakes. However, this system is useless for the vehicles in Terra now, because the level of electronic technology in these vehicles is too low."

That's good. Maria was really afraid that Suri might suddenly decide to bring all the cars on the road to an abrupt stop.

After putting Zofia in her bedroom and covering her with a blanket, Maria returned to her own room, tidied herself up, and closed her eyes.

"I feel like so much happened today. See you tomorrow, Suri."

"Okay, see you tomorrow."

Suri greeted Maria, then turned her attention to something else.

After all, the Knights' competition isn't just Maria's game; there are many other factors to consider.

...The next morning, Maria, who hadn't drunk any alcohol, went to bed early and got up early. She was already in the kitchen, chatting with Suri while making breakfast:

"In a few days I'll be facing a new opponent, a knight named Left Hand. He's played against my sister before, so he must be very strong."

"He's just a defeated opponent of Margaret, and he'll be a defeated opponent of yours too."

Suri didn't take it seriously: "If you really can't beat me, then let me do it."

'I know, okay? At least trust me a little. I've learned a lot in recent battles.'

Maria pouted slightly, a little annoyed, but she was also happy about Suri's concern. In Maria's understanding, Suri meant that if she encountered a situation she couldn't handle, Suri would personally appear to deal with it.

What a warm and reassuring statement.

Maria couldn't help but smile foolishly, and then she heard footsteps coming down the stairs outside. It must be Zoffy waking up.

Maria flinched instinctively, a hint of resentment in her voice: 'Aunt Zofia's awake? Why didn't Suri warn me?'

"Have you done anything wrong? Why are you so concerned about when she will wake up?"

'Hmm, I don't know either.' Maria thought for a moment but couldn't come up with her own reason. She was just subconsciously a little wary of Zofia, her aunt.

At this moment, the hungover Zofia also arrived at the kitchen door, rubbing her temples and saying somewhat uncomfortably:

"Good morning, Maria. Thank you for making breakfast today. Where's the chef?"

"Didn't you give the chef a break before, Aunt? We've been cooking for ourselves lately."

Maria answered while looking at the breakfast in front of her, her heart growing even more nervous.

"Hmm... I feel like I wasn't just drunk last night, but I also sat in the back seat of a guy with terrible driving skills for a long time. I felt so uncomfortable, like I was washed in a washing machine."

"Haha, maybe you're just imagining things because you're drunk, Auntie?"

Maria's lips twitched, and she complained inwardly to Suri, "Look, our aunt almost found out what we did last night."

"Don't worry, she was really drunk at the time, there's absolutely no way she could have noticed."

Suri wasn't nervous at all: "Just hurry up and make breakfast to distract her."

"Hmm." Maria nodded, her gaze involuntarily drifting to Zofia leaning against the door. She noticed that even in her pajamas, with her hair slightly tousled, her aunt was incredibly charming. Anyone would be captivated, right?

So, will Suri develop feelings for her aunt?

With this thought in mind, Maria couldn't help but feel a little worried. She then prepared breakfast and greeted Zofia outside, "Aunt, breakfast is ready. Go and change your clothes."

Stop trying to seduce me, Suri, in your pajamas. Besides, I didn't change your pajamas. Did you get up and change yourself last night?

Maria was puzzled and asked directly, "I don't remember changing my aunt's clothes last night, why is she wearing pajamas?"

"She woke up briefly in the middle of the night, seemingly wanting to talk to me, but she didn't have my number, so she just talked nonsense on her phone. After that, she changed into her pajamas and went back to sleep."

'Suri, did you speak to your aunt?'

"I told her to go to sleep."

Maria pursed her lips, said nothing, but divided the breakfast into portions on plates and then went to the dining room.

Maria just wanted to finish breakfast quickly so she could go to training, preferably away from her aunt.

You seem a little unhappy. What happened?

Suri couldn't figure out why Maria suddenly seemed unhappy, so he asked her directly.

"It's nothing, I just wanted to know when you, Suri, can come and stay with me."

"I can be with you right now, just put on your armor."

Maria paused for a moment, then said, "Okay, I'll finish my breakfast."

"What's there to eat? Zofia's not here anyway." Suri said, changing Maria's clothes into the armor Suri had designed for her.

'But, Suri, what are you doing?'

Maria was puzzled. Suddenly, she realized that her own arm was moving. She patted her shoulder. No, it wasn't her arm that was moving, but rather Maria's armor was being controlled and was moving along with her arm.

"This suit of armor has a lot of electronic circuitry. I can control this suit of armor to interact with you. Also, haven't I always lived in your mind? I've always been with you."

Suri's words, which she hadn't quite understood, suddenly enlightened Maria, and for a moment she was even moved to tears:

I've always wanted to be face-to-face with you, but I've overlooked so many things. You've always been right beside me.

"...What are you talking about? Isn't this just common sense?"

Suri still didn't understand what Maria was thinking, but Maria didn't say anything, instead smiling and saying, "Suri, would you like to try some? I put a lot of effort into today's breakfast!"

Volume 5, Chapter 268: Miscellaneous Aunt

"Of course, what are you eating? Break me some."

After hearing Maria's words, Suri, without any hesitation, seemed to want to get closer. Maria smiled and directly switched bodies with Suri:

"Finish your food quickly before Auntie arrives, so she doesn't find out."

"Okay, I understand."

Suri nodded and took the entire plate away.

"That way we won't be discovered, right?" With that, Suri took her breakfast and headed outside.

'That's not good table manners... whatever makes you happy, Suri.'

Maria thought for a moment and did not stop Suri. Instead, she watched as he came out of the castle alone in his armor, looking up as if he wanted to go upstairs.

The stairs are inside the castle; there's no way up from the outside.

Maria thought Suri had misunderstood the building structure and instinctively reminded Suri as if she were a child.

"I know, just you wait and see."

Suri stored the breakfast into her system space, and then, wings unfolded from the back of her armor!

"What is this?!" Maria exclaimed in surprise, then saw Suri control her body, wearing armor, and fly up to the top of the castle.

"Of course it's wings! I told you, armor has many functions. Didn't you read the instruction manual I gave you?"

"I did look carefully, but I thought you meant a brief gliding jump..."

After all, that kind of technology is a bit ahead of its time for Terra, especially in terms of armor.

"I remember someone in Colombia developed a jetpack, so what's so surprising?"

As Suri spoke, he directly showed the Colombian who had developed the jetpack, but Maria didn't seem to approve.

'This kind of equipment, which only has the ability to fly and not to fight, is incomparable to your armor; it's far inferior to Surey's.'

"Hmm, I'm actually quite grateful that you're on my side."

A smile involuntarily crept onto Suri's lips as she leisurely stood atop the castle, gazing at the city skyline while enjoying her breakfast.

Maria, meanwhile, was pondering something: 'Suri, I can't improve my physical abilities quickly, but do you have a way to rapidly enhance my combat skills?'

“…Indeed.” Suri thought for a moment, then nodded while controlling Maria’s body, revealing a wicked smile: “Just hand over your body to me, and I’ll help you win every battle.”

"But in reality, it's still Suri doing the sub-playing, right? My combat skills won't improve."

"Wrong, completely wrong. You'll naturally learn fighting techniques just by watching me fight."

As Su Rui spoke, she took out a helmet that could cover her face and put it on: "You'll see for yourself if you don't believe me."

Where did the helmet come from?

"I stole it from the safe containing the secret recipe for crab roe buns in Bikini Bottom."

Suri was talking nonsense when she jumped down from the top of the castle and put her breakfast plate in the kitchen, where she ran into Zofia, who had just finished eating breakfast.

"Maria? Your helmet is quite nice. Is it a new design?"

Zofia looked at "Maria" with some curiosity, feeling that something was different about Maria, but she couldn't see it clearly through the helmet for the moment.

Suri didn't answer Zofia, but instead drew her sword and greeted her:

"Hmm, let me test your skills."

"You're not Maria? What's going on?"

"I'm the one controlling this armor now!"

“Suri?” Zofia was taken aback and immediately thought of Suri, who was closely related to Maria.

"You guessed right, too bad there's no reward. Let me show you what I'm capable of! Let's go outside!"

Suri proudly gestured with her chin to Zofia, indicating that she should follow her outside.

"What are you talking about, suddenly wanting to fight? And Maria agreed to let you borrow her armor?"

Zofia questioned Suri, but still followed in his footsteps.

"Of course, by the way, if you lose, I'll be Maria's coach from now on."

As Suri spoke, she gave Zofia a smug smile: "Don't come crying and saying things like 'Oh no!' when the time comes!"

"You should stop crying after you lose."

Zofia snorted and stood in front of Su Rui, her whip blade poised to strike. Although she was also curious about Su Rui's abilities, she was determined not to lose this match!

Then, Zofia discovered that no matter how she tried to find an opening and throw her whip blade, even performing better than usual due to the pressure, she couldn't touch the armor at all, let alone knock down Suri.

"Tsk, like a slippery eel." Zofia couldn't help but feel annoyed, but Suri was already prepared:

"Have you had enough? Even if I were the fairy, I'd fight back!"

"!" With Suri's shout, Zofia became alert, and then she saw Suri throw away the sword in her hand and rush straight towards her.

"What are you doing?! Dropping your weapon, how reckless!" Zofia couldn't help but want to teach Su Rui a lesson at this moment.

Suri retorted, not to be outdone: "I'm the strongest, you idiot! I only threw away my weapon so as not to hurt you!"

As he spoke, Suri approached Zofia and delivered a powerful punch to Zofia's abdomen. Suri controlled his strength to prevent Zofia from suffering too serious an injury, but it was bound to hurt a lot.
