Their commission was suspicious.

"Shh!"

Several beautiful feathers suddenly appeared in the air. Chen Luo was somewhat mesmerized by this gorgeous and beautiful scene.

But then, those feathers instantly transformed into several sharp swords, which were placed on various parts of Chen Luo's body, rendering him unable to move.

Chen Luo gently touched the tip of the sword with his finger.

Damn! It's the real deal!!!

Moved to tears, too scared to move.jpg

"Ugh, this sleep was so painful, everything hurts. What bad luck." The other person stretched after taking Chen Luo hostage.

However, if the other person's arm retracts unconsciously halfway through their stretch, it indicates that their stretching may have aggravated an injured bone or muscle.

"By the way, I've been awake for two minutes now." Perhaps feeling it wasn't quite right to leave Chen Luo hanging like this, the other person casually replied.

"..." You woke up two minutes ago, why didn't you say so earlier?

"Although I woke up two minutes ago, why should I say it? Putting everything else aside, your massage technique contains the principles of martial arts, you've learned it quite well." The girl leaned back slightly, resting her head against the pillow.

Chen Luo's pupils contracted.

“That’s right, I can read minds. After all, as the Herrscher of Knowledge, no one can fool me. But you’re quite interesting, kid. Would a normal person bring a stranger home?” The Herrscher of Knowledge looked at the other person curiously, not understanding why the other person would do such a thing.

And with such a beautiful woman like me lying right in front of you, you don't even have any thoughts about me?

"Uh, I'm used to helping others." Chen Luo didn't want to answer at first, but he had a subtle feeling that the swords seemed to be closer to his body, so he answered immediately.

"Huh? You weren't lying? You're an interesting kid. Are there any more pushovers like you in this world?" The Herrscher of Knowledge looked at Chen Luo as if he were some rare species.

"..." Upon hearing the other person's words, Chen Luo instantly understood something.

This girl, known as the Herrscher of Knowledge, can indeed read minds, but not completely, at least not about herself. It seems that anything related to her talent can be blocked.

"I'm not a pushover, thank you," Chen Luo said.

"You still say you're not a pushover? Not for money, not for sex, you bring a strange girl home and take care of her tenderly, without having any ulterior motives... I don't understand." The Herald of Knowledge shook his head.

As the Lawgiver of Knowledge, she can sense everyone's inner thoughts and naturally understand others' various ideas about her.

When this person was wiping his hands and feet, he was indeed just trying to get rid of the dirt.

Those who understand the laws truly do not comprehend them.

Why would someone who is clearly your best friend beat you up, and what's worse, they wouldn't admit that they are Fu Hua? That's the most infuriating thing!

But why is it that a complete stranger can take care of me without any ulterior motives?

Are human emotions really that complicated?

Those who understand the laws of knowledge are deeply contemplating...

Happy Treasure Hunting.jpg

Chapter 6 Treasure Hunting: Were you also scammed by your parents?

Chen Luo had no idea what the girl in front of him was thinking.

Chen Luo only knew that when he was giving the other person a massage to improve blood circulation and remove blood stasis, he was in a state of complete concentration.

This state was taught to him by an old man he met at the hospital when he was teaching Chen Luo massage techniques.

The old man also said that Chen Luo was very talented and asked if he wanted to learn massage from him, but Chen Luo refused without hesitation.

Although Chen Luo didn't know what the other person was thinking, he knew that the other person had a lot of inner monologues.

You can tell just by looking at the three different expressions on the other person's face.

Chen Luo knew that disturbing the other party now was not a good choice, especially with several swords still pointed at him, but...

"Um, beautiful lady, could you please let go of these swords? This position is really tiring." Chen Luo's body began to tremble.

It takes a lot of physical strength to help others improve blood circulation and remove blood stasis, and you've been maintaining a forward-leaning posture for a while now.

Chen Luo is now really worried that he might slip and fall, ending up in the Pure Land.

"You've interrupted my train of thought." Disturbed by Chen Luo's interruption, the Herrscher of Knowledge immediately raised its head, its gaze fixed on Chen Luo with an extremely imposing intensity.

"!!!" Chen Luo felt his scalp tingle instantly from being stared at.

This girl in front of me is really dangerous!

Chen Luo felt this matter deeply once again.

So why is this lousy quest, which is worth 600 Primogems, only rated as zero difficulty?

This unscientific!

"So, as compensation, I've requisitioned your house. Be grateful for my mercy in not beating you up, after all, an immortal's body isn't something you can just touch at will." The Herrscher of Knowledge nodded, seemingly quite pleased with her own magnanimity.

"Huh?" Chen Luo tilted his head, then almost bumped into the sword.

"Don't you understand what I mean? Simply put, I'm going to live in your house starting today. Because I suddenly realized that I seem to be homeless," said the Herald of Knowledge.

The reason why the Herrscher of Knowledge made this decision is because the Herrscher of Knowledge keenly realized that this is no longer its own world. The reason is that this world does not have Honkai energy at all.

The remaining Honkai energy within one's body diminishes with each use.

Fortunately, the powers of the Herrscher of Knowledge can be activated without Honkai energy.

After being swept into that gray airflow, my body seemed to undergo some changes.

At least, originally I didn't have a body.

Furthermore, the void in my Honkai energy seemed to be slowly being filled by another special energy.

In this situation, finding a native of this world is the most reliable thing to do.

And right now, there's no one more reliable than this young man in front of me, and I should repay the life-saving grace.

I will always seek revenge; anyone who gets in my way is a piece of trash!

However, one should repay kindness.

"Wait, why are you staying at my house?" Chen Luo was instantly puzzled.

"Hmm? You're not welcoming me?" The Herrscher of Knowledge had a hint of disappointment in her eyes.

"Hey, don't be sad, I'd love to welcome you." Chen Luo shook his head instantly.

Just kidding, that's 600 Primogems!

"???" Now it was the Herald of Knowledge's turn to be confused.

Originally, Shi Zhi Lu Zhe wanted to conquer the other party with his superb acting skills, but the other party didn't play by the rules at all.

The power of the Knowing Law shows that the other party is indeed very welcoming to his home and has no other intentions; he is simply happy to have him stay.

Is this person crazy?

Or, we could use the power of the Law of Consciousness to regulate his brain circuits later?

No, I can't adjust it. What if he doesn't let me live in his house after we've adjusted it?

The one who understood the law shook his head.

"Why did you let me move in?" The Herald of Knowledge asked, echoing Chen Luo's earlier line.

"Well, because you see, my house is so big, but I'm all alone at home, and my parents have abandoned me... Also, the moment I saw you, I felt that we were destined to be together, like it was meant to be." Chen Luo nodded vigorously.

You're not getting your 600 Primogems away. Even Jesus couldn't save you. I'm telling you!

"Hmm, your parents don't want you anymore either?" The Herald of Knowledge asked, looking up.

"Wait, why does your tone sound a little happy? Is there something wrong with your question?"

Chen Luo breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the swords being retrieved by the other party, and leaned against the bedside table.

“No, I’m very sad.” The Herald of Knowledge shook his head.

"You're clearly very happy." Chen Luo didn't believe the other person's nonsense.

"The Herrscher of Consciousness altered your consciousness, and now you feel I'm very sad." The Herrscher of Consciousness paused for a moment before staring into Chen Luo's eyes and saying.

“…You are indeed very sad.” After a moment of silence, Chen Luo nodded, having to admit it.

Although Chen Luo felt that his consciousness had not been modified, he knew from the other party's title that the other party's ability might be related to mind control.

Perhaps the fact that my consciousness was not altered is truly due to my innate talent.

But you still have to admit defeat when it's time to do so.

"So your parents don't want you anymore?" the Herald of Knowledge asked again.

"No, you might have misunderstood. They are both archaeologists. After I entered high school, they saw me helping others and working tirelessly every day, so they assumed I had the right outlook on life, values, and worldview. So they went off to pursue their own careers. Apart from the various odd items that are mailed back every week, they only come home once a month."

"They said they came to see me, but I suspect they were just tired of playing and wanted to go home and rest for a few days." Under their questioning, Chen Luo talked more and more, and eventually he was almost unable to stop.

After all, Chen Luo had never told anyone about these things before, so having a listener would be very helpful.

And a visitor from another world is undoubtedly the best listener.

"Stop, stop, stop, I understand, I get it, no need to say anymore. So your parents didn't abandon you after all." The Lawbringer realized that the relationship between their parents and children was very harmonious.

This time, the Lawbringer was truly frustrated.

Is this the difference between people?

"Well, although they didn't reject me outright, I feel like it's pretty much over." Although he didn't know why the other person was a little upset, Chen Luo immediately changed his approach and conversation skills after recalling the character's introduction.

I'm sorry, Mom and Dad.

"Actually, if you put it that way, we two are really destined to be together, like it was meant to be. So from today onwards, I'll be staying at your place, just to keep you company, you lonely... uh, lonely boy." Sensing the other person's desire to cheer her up, the Herrscher of Knowledge suppressed her disappointment.

Why feel down?

She has friends, and I have friends too.

Although we've only met for less than 10 minutes... he seems pretty reliable.

perhaps……

"Then I thank you very much," Chen Luo replied somewhat helplessly.

When did I become a lonely teenager? Are you a child? Why do you always blame others for what you want?

Instead of calling him the Lawgiver of Knowledge, just call him the Lawgiver of Children.

[Ding! Mission complete!]

"..."

That's right, I am the lonely boy.

[Ding! Please confirm your family member relationships immediately to receive the full reward.]

Huh? We need to confirm family relationships?

Thinking about it carefully, it makes sense. Since we've become family, we really need to clarify our relationship with each other.

"Father and daughter," Chen Luo pondered for a moment before tentatively answering in his mind.

Although this relationship sounds a bit far-fetched and unlikely to succeed, let's give it a try. It doesn't cost anything to try.

Black Stockings Treasure Hunt.jpg

Chapter 7 mission complete, and I've been blessed with... a daughter?

[Ding! Relationship confirmed, mission complete.]

Holy crap, this works?

Chen Luo was instantly dumbfounded.

Chen Luo's idea was like naming a character "husband" in a game full of beautiful girls; it was just a purely mischievous thought.

But shouldn't we first confirm whether we're sure we want to use this relationship? What does it mean to confirm it so easily?

This girl and I became father and daughter just like that?

I'm only 17 years old.

And is such an outrageous relationship even acceptable?
