Thousands of Love

Yu Ling spoke his mind, and the talismans and pages above the round table rustled as if applauding him.

zero……

You've finally faced your inner desires!

When Yu Zhizhi heard what Ling said, the world became very quiet, with only the voice of the cat youth echoing in her ears.

—I will love you very much.

I love you sincerely.

Her heart began to race, and the sheets beside her crumpled at her fingertips. In her memory, the cat-like youth always wore a gentle yet cunning smile, except for that last time when he sat at the dining table, his expression indifferent and his aura cold.

It seemed that even saying goodbye was superfluous between them.

And now, Zero has completely revealed her feelings to her...

Yu Zhizhi still felt a little uneasy. She rarely faced such a situation, especially after leaving the Beast World planet.

Beastman...

Does Zero want to be her beast husband?

Back on Beast Planet, Yu Zhizhi did want to invite him, but she never did. How could Zero, who refused even a meeting, be willing to be her beast husband?

Now, she could feel the sincerity in Zero's words. Although the two were not face to face, the cat-like youth seemed to be standing right in front of her, gazing intently at her.

Under such gazes, Yu Zhizhi's cheeks flushed slightly.

She slowly nodded: "...Okay!"

Zero had asked her before if she would take responsibility.

Yu Zhizhi stammered, unable to make any promises. She didn't know what would happen after completing the mission, or even if they would ever see each other again.

But things are different now~

She will take responsibility!

"Zero, if I can go back, would you be willing to come to my territory to find me?"

“Of course,” the cat-like youth replied immediately. “With just one phone call, I will rush to your side, no matter when or where.”

A slight smile appeared on Yu Zhizhi's face: "Mmm~"

Yu Ling knew that the little rabbit had agreed to his request. His chest felt as if it were filled with warm water, and even his eyes became moist.

"I really want to see you soon." The cat-man youth realized that his longing for the little rabbit was growing stronger and stronger, burning his chest with pain.

But I also feel very happy.

That kind of happiness was like a cold, snowy night when he huddled in a thick cotton sleeping bag, and that sleep was warmer and more restful than ever before.

Even though we still don't know what tomorrow will bring, we are truly grateful for every minute and every second we experience right now.

And they still hoped that the snow would melt.

Will tomorrow be better?

When the time for the "transmission" was up, the floating bubble burst with a "pop".

Yu Ling stared blankly at the sky above the round table. There was nothing there except for the talisman gurgling out dark green mist.

Surely it can't all be his fantasy?

The young man from the cat tribe suddenly became uncertain.

While he was distracted, the talisman chuckled a few times: "Congratulations, Zero. You're going to have a home now."

The sound of the talisman brought Zero's consciousness back.

He noticed that his fingers were trembling slightly.

Yes, he'll soon have a home.

During his long years of wandering alone, home was the strongest longing in his heart.

And this wish is about to come true.

The cat-like youth lowered his head, his right hand touching the white mask lying on the table, filled with anticipation for his reunion with the little rabbit.

Yu Zhizhi watched the small bubble burst, and the [Sound Transmission] scroll disappeared from her inventory.

The props this time were excellent value for money.

Yu Zhizhi couldn't suppress the smile on her face when she thought of her promise to Ling.

Just then, the system surprisingly spoke up.

System: [Host, for your own safety, cutting off contact with them is the best option.]

Those guys, let's just call them the targets of our pursuit.

Their temperament is not gentle.

If any other crazy actions are taken, Number 10190's life will be threatened.

Since we've already cleared the game, we don't need to worry about the Beast World planet anymore.

Cut off contact? Upon hearing what the system said, Yu Zhizhi's first reaction was to shake her head: "No, no."

Although it's a task...

but……

Yu Zhizhi took a slow breath and said, word by word, "I will take responsibility for them!"

The system went silent.

It originally thought that after completing the main quest #10190, she had great potential and was worth focusing on developing.

However, she was just too "kind".

The task objects are just tools; you can just throw them away after you're done using them.

Number 10190 actually wants to be responsible for each target he's pursuing?

As expected, each reincarnator has a different temperament.

The system silently shut up.

Having overheard all this, Satan said in a cold, hoarse voice, "Foolish."

Yu Zhizhi's white rabbit ears trembled slightly, and she immediately raised her head to find the source of the sound.

This is the second time!

This can't be a hallucination!

It's the same sound again, a bit dry, somewhat similar to the system, but without that mechanical feel—

madness?

Yu Zhizhi pursed her lips and asked, "Who are you? Why do you keep talking about me?"

Is it a system?

Is it Satan?

Yu Zhizhi cannot confirm.

This time there was no response.

The system behaves as usual; when it doesn't appear, it's as if it never existed.

So it's all mechanized, and everything is done in a strictly businesslike manner.

Yu Zhizhi waited for a while longer. For some reason, every time she heard that voice, she felt inexplicably uneasy.

There's really no way I can not care.

"Hey."

Yu Zhizhi felt a little melancholy, knowing in her heart that the word "stupid" was the other person's evaluation of what she had just said.

But she didn't want to change and stubbornly believed that what she was doing was right.

Everything she experienced on the Beast World planet was etched deep in her memory.

Besides them, there were also cubs...

How could Yu Zhizhi possibly abandon everything?

The most important thing now is to complete the task. Yu Zhizhi got up and went to the bathroom. While brushing her teeth, she brought up the system's task bar.

This task seems to be a bit more difficult than the previous ones?

Yu Zhizhi was a little confused.

She flipped through several pages, but the kind of task that could be completed simply by using healing magic, like the previous one, was almost nowhere to be found.

The task has become more difficult, and the points have increased...

Most of the points are around 150.

Yu Zhizhi thought of the random tasks; if she chose random, she would receive extra points. That would bring her a total of 300 points, so she wouldn't need to accept any new tasks!

Why don't you give it a try?

Glug glug... Yu Zhizhi rinsed her mouth, spat out the foam, and wiped her mouth clean with a wet tissue. Her dark, round eyes appeared even brighter and clearer in the mirror.

"random."

She gently touched the light blue button on the floating screen.

She eagerly anticipated her new task.

System: [Ding! Congratulations, host, you have unlocked the random mission 'C20 area'!]
