Shaka, however, kept his eyes fixed on Haruhime.
The little fox girl before me is only 13 years old, much more immature than the voluptuous figure of the main characters. In contrast, having been abducted at a young age and living in the cage woven by Ishtar ever since, her worldview and values may not yet be fully formed.
This is not the original story. Back then, Haruhime had a more mature mindset, and the forced sacrifice after her death diminished her appeal.
There's no longer any hero rescuing the damsel in distress; instead, it looks more like forced abduction.
It's hard to guarantee that Haruhime won't do something foolish like returning to the Ishtar Familia.
Therefore... we must confirm her own wishes.
Chunji looked timidly into Xiajia's eyes, her ears drooping, her golden tail wagging rhythmically as if in thought.
After waiting for several breaths, and with cold sweat beading on her forehead, Chun Ji weakly said:
"Since everyone wants me to stay here, then I will stay here temporarily."
"Lady Chun Ji!"
After receiving Chunji's affirmative answer, Ming pounced on the little fox and rubbed her face against his chest.
This made Chun-hee blush deeply.
Shaka interrupted the two of them rather inappropriately, saying:
"Since you've made the decision, you won't be able to leave the clan's gates freely for the foreseeable future. At least until Ishtar's problem is resolved, you won't be allowed to go out."
"If you're bored in your free time, you can come to me, and I'll have them come over to keep you company."
Chunji nodded obediently.
She was always a submissive person; now she's simply gone from being a member of the Ishtar Familia to being a member of the Stardust Mansion.
However, she still had some requests:
"May I write a letter to Sister Aisha?"
Ming exclaimed in surprise, "How can this be! Lady Chunji, won't this expose your location? And cause trouble for Lady Xiajia again?"
Chunji shrank her head and lowered her ears.
Seeing the little fox's pitiful appearance, Xia Jia smiled and said, "It's alright. After you finish writing the letter, give it to me, and I'll have someone deliver it."
Chunji's ears perked up, and her azure eyes looked at Xia Jia hopefully: "Are you telling the truth? You're not lying to me, are you?"
"Ha, I, Xia Jia, act with integrity and honesty, and I never lie..."
Unless you pay more… he thought to himself.
After making the decision, Xia Jia simply built a small wooden house for Chun Ji in a corner of the manor. The two-story wooden house had several small rooms, enough for a few people to stay overnight.
Settle Chunji down.
Xia Jia returned to her room to rest and quickly fell asleep.
……
The next day, early in the morning.
"Open the door, Jiajia, open the door quickly!"
Shaka's door was pounded on, and Metluja called out to Shaka anxiously.
Xia Jia rubbed her eyes and opened the door: "What's wrong?"
Metluth said anxiously, "Belle's been acting strange this morning; her body has been flickering. Is something wrong?"
"Hmm?" Shaka's sleepiness vanished instantly. She pushed past Metluja and ran towards the living room.
In the living room, the little players are gathered around Belle, who is sparkling brightly.
"Hmm, are you going to become light?"
"Take me one!"
"This is a genuine magical girl transformation! Quick, let me see where your transformation device is?"
"This is the call of the invisible boundary line; everything is laid bare before my eyes!"
Xia Jia pushed the little player aside, speechless: "What are you all talking about...? Let me see!"
Shaka stared in shock at Belle, who appeared and disappeared intermittently, constantly radiating dazzling golden light.
"Wife! Look, she's about to ascend to heaven!"
Jianzi kicked Xia Jia in the butt: "Be serious!"
"Oh."
Shaka stroked his chin, looked Belle up and down, and quickly came to a conclusion:
"It's time. Your body over there should be waking up by now."
"What do you mean?"
Xia Jia was talking nonsense with a straight face:
"Some people say that every dream a person has is information transmitted from a parallel version of themselves. So, when you are in deep sleep, you may be going to another world to embark on an adventure. When you wake up, you may not remember anything, or you may retain some fragmented memories."
"Well, I don't know if you've ever heard of Zhuangzi's dream of a butterfly... well, probably not."
Metluth looked regretful: "So that means..."
Shaga nodded: "Yes, Belle's dream should end, but we butterflies must continue to flutter."
Upon hearing this, Metluth hugged the shimmering Belle tightly and began to sob.
Shaka then looked at her and asked:
"Is there anything else you need to tell me?"
Belle thought for a moment, then smiled warmly and said, "I haven't had a chance to thank you properly yet. Thank you so much for taking care of me this past week. It also allowed me to see my mom and aunt..."
"Don't call me auntie!"
Seeing that the child was instantly possessed, a hand chop landed on Belle's head.
"Well!"
Seeing the harmonious scene, Xia Jia smiled and said:
"It's nothing. I've also gained a lot of inspiration from you. At least I've gained some basic understanding of parallel worlds."
As Shaka spoke, he handed the jeweled sword to Belle, saying:
"Take it. Although I think with your luck, you shouldn't run into the wrong timeline again, you should keep this. It might make your trip more stable."
Belle took the jeweled sword, looking puzzled. "How do I use it? Can I take it back with me?"
Xia Jia laughed and said, "It's similar to the way the Demon Sword is used. As for whether you can take it with you, I think it's no problem. After all, it's the one that brought you here."
After a pause, Shaka added, "If we really go back to that world together, perhaps you can use it to come back again when you miss Metluja."
Belle solemnly sheathed her jeweled sword and nodded.
Ryuya stepped forward and told her what she wanted to say to her other self in the other world...
After a flurry of activity, Belle's body shone with even more intense golden light.
Shaka quietly watched Belle, who was about to return, and asked again:
"Are you really not doing anything else that you need me to do?"
Belle thought for a moment and said:
"I originally wanted Commander Xia to save Grandpa, but after Second Aunt told me that Grandpa is Zeus, I changed my mind."
"If you have to say it..."
Belle's tone suddenly became serious:
"I hope that Commander Xia, if he is able, will make a trip to the Great Tree Sea, where a black ancient monster, Andaris, is sealed."
"I hope Commander Xia can help us defeat it..."
"besides……"
Belle paused, then gave a sweet smile: "Commander Xia, you're such a good person!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Belle transformed into a golden ray of light and vanished from this world.
Chapter 348 You're such a good person!
"Damn it, Metlujah, what did your daughter mean by her last words?"
Upon hearing Belle's last words, Xia Jia exploded: "What do you mean I'm a good person?! In the very end, are you going to give me a 'good person' card?"
Metluth tilted her head, puzzled. "But Belle is right. Little Gaja is a good person."
Shaka: "..."
Alright, I have no common language with you natives, I'm going to go find Lady Leah and exchange sausages!
Before Xia Jia could even run away...
Alfia then grabbed Shaga with Metluja.
