Blue Lake Mountain Range.

Somewhere in the “treasure” site.

A blonde girl sat on the ground. Her beautiful and fresh face was full of frustration. Strands of golden curly hair were sticking together by sweat. Her beige folded skirt looked dirty. It was badly torn. She looked rather miserable.

“Dodo, do you actually know how to go?”

“Royal Highness Little princess, let me think about it again…” The slime had already recovered his original green onion appearance. While looking at the junction in front, his forehead seemed to be full of cold sweat.

Dodo had already started to regret in his heart. I shouldn’t be tempted by the little princess’ “free supply” of good wine for a month and followed her to this dangerous place.

The slime didn’t know the secret of this treasure location, but he occasionally heard a few words from madam, so he understood a little bit in his heart. He secretly thought that there should be no problem with his years of experience in dealing with those “magic traps” in the black rainforest. So, under the temptation of Alice’s “huge benefit”, Dodo, who was driven by his greed, finally agreed.

Fortunately, the slime still remembered the master’s strict orders. He didn’t reveal more things such as Chen Rui’s power.

However, Dodo’s overbearing confidence was based on the inscription arranged before the dying dragon in the black rainforest. The power was completely different from the arrangement by Paglio and Chen Rui. The so-called “experience” of the slime was to use his immortal body to endure the trap. Then, he used some kind of strange force to make it temporarily disabled when he triggered the trap so that Alice could pass through.

The problem was that these inscriptions and magic circles were not purely hurtful. It was more on hallucination and misleading. The slime took Alice around for a while, but they actually got lost. There was once when they were almost teleported to a terrifying explosion trap. If Dodo didn’t become a big shield in time, Alice would have been seriously injured.

Facing Alice’s doubts… The slime had more cold sweats. He had a unique talent, so he could feel the existence of traps around the junction. There is a hint of dangerous breath… The question is which one is less dangerous? The slime who had been shattered several times did not have much remaining power. However, the slime clearly knew that if he left Alice and slipped away by himself, even if he could escape… he would be truly shattered by his master and madam.

The slime thought for a while. Generally, the middle part of the Demon Realm’s fruit was always the best, so… the middle way then.

Alice didn’t know the basis of Dodo’s route selection. She saw him jumping toward the middle road, so she immediately got up and followed suit. When approaching the magic trap, Dodo suddenly felt that the threat of the magic trap had suddenly disappeared- It turns out that the danger was an illusion! Sir Dodo’s choice is really wise…

Before the slime was done praising himself… a figure appeared in front of him. Dodo was startled. When he saw this person clearly… he quickly showed a flattering smile, “It turns out that the great master is here! It’s great… …”

Chen Rui’s strength had already surpassed Dodo now. Moreover, Chen Rui’s Aurora Shot destruction power could naturally restrain Dodo, so Dodo was fearful of his master in his heart. The sly slime knew that this trip caused a huge trouble, so he hurried to please him. Didn’t the master say a phrase before? No one would beat a smiling face, “I’ll settle the scores with you when we return!” Chen Rui ignored Dodo’s flattery and stared at him fiercely. The slime’s heart tightened, and then he remembered a sentence that the master once said, settle the scores afterwards.

Dodo’s judgment just now was actually wrong. The inscription in the middle road was the most powerful… It was extremely lethal. Once it exploded, Dodo might not die, but Alice who was behind him would definitely be impacted by the strong aftershock. If Chen Rui hadn’t arrived in time to suppress the launch of the inscription… the consequences would be disastrous.

“Chen Rui, you are finally back…” Chen Rui’s appearance made Alice’s eyes light up. She felt that her tired body had the strength again. She walked over happily. When she saw the human’s gloomy face, her enthusiasm plummeted. She pouted her mouth unhappily.

“It’s too dangerous here. Let’s leave this place first. You two come with me. You must follow my footsteps!”

Chen Rui led Alice and Dodo turning here and there. They finally found the safe place where the little black horse was. When Dodo saw the little black horse, he hurriedly jumped over, but the little black horse was extremely ignorant toward this guy. Its hoof stomped on the ground as though to warn him.

“Let’s go back.”

Alice had been keeping her head down. She raised her head when she heard him. Her face showed a stubborn look, “I’m not going back!”

Chen Rui frowned, and his tone became a little stern, “It’s dangerous here, don’t you know? If I didn’t find you just now, you might be dead already!”

“I don’t care. I am not going back!” Alice suddenly lost her temper for no apparent reason.

Chen Rui secretly felt angry. Seeing the faintly flashing tears in the little loli’s big eyes, he thought of Athena’s instructions before leaving, and his mood calmed down a lot. After another thought, he let Dodo and the little black horse go back first. Anyway, now was not the time for the inscription’s automatic change yet, so the little dark horse remembered the way.

After Dodo and the little black horse left, Alice still bit her lip without a word. She seemed to be sulking.

“Are you hungry?” A fragrant pudding appeared in front of the little loli’s eyes.

Little Loli swallowed secretly, but she was still stubbornly silent.

“This is a blueberry flavor. Isn’t it your favorite?”

Normally, little loli would definitely grab it, but surprisingly, she did not move this time. She said with her heads down, “What happens after eating? Follow you back?”

“It’s too unsafe here, so we must go back…”

“Really? The disobedient little girl was caught back again.” Alice’s tone showed a strange dejection. It could even be called dispirited. She really ignored the existence of the pudding this time.

Chen Rui noticed the word “again”, so he didn’t reply anything more.

“Troublesome little girl, problematic little girl, ignorant little girl…” Alice’s head dropped lower. “My sister works so hard and toiled. I should be sensible. I should learn…”

Chen Rui clearly saw the crystal teardrops dripping from Alice’s drooped face.

Although she didn’t continue saying, Chen Rui understood something in his heart.

No matter what, Alice is just a 14-year-old girl after all. Just like the “little girl” she said.

Not to mention her, even as an adult, there are also times when we are reckless and unhappy. At the Princess Retail Store alone, there will be many people or things that don’t go well. I had been 14 years old before. It seems to be the beginning of a rebellious period… This rebellion actually continued until the adult period before I cross-overed… Some things even became permanent tempers.

“Chen Rui, am I a failure in my life?” The little Loli still lowered her head.

This term is a bit exaggerated. Chen Rui smiled bitterly while shaking his head. A girl who is so young… Putting aside the hundreds of years lifespan of demons, her life has just begun even for just ordinary humans. How can she be considered a failure?

“I don’t know. What I know is that many noble ladies who are bigger than you can only eat, drink and have fun all day long by the shadow of their parents… living a pathetic life. Some even dominate and bully others with their position. No one can run a store independently and open a branch in a neighboring country. I think Alice is already quite wonderful. This is not a compliment, but a sincere word.”

“Really?” Alice raised her head suddenly. Hopeful light flashed in her big tearful eyes.

“Of course.” Chen Rui nodded affirmatively.

“Then… give it to me.”

“What?”

“Pudding! I’m starving to death!”

Chen Rui breathed a sigh of relief… He handed the pudding over. The little loli immediately gobbled it up.

“Just now (chewing)… Did I make you angry?”

“A little bit, but I’m worried about you…” Chen Rui saw that she finished the pudding instantly, so he passed a glass of juice. “Alice is my most important little sister in my heart.”

“Hmph! I’m just my sister’s little sister” Little Loli drank a mouthful of juice, finally replenishing the liquid she had just cried out just now. “I want to be your most important woman like Athena!”

Chen Rui shook his head. As he was about to speak, the little loli continued, “Or… like Kia is fine too. Don’t think I don’t know why she is living back, hehe…”

Chen Rui was stunned as he thought of an explanation. He said, “Alice… You are still young. There is something that you don’t understand…”

“Why don’t I understand? I’m an expert!” Alice finished the juice in one gulp. “Athena was still discussing that kind of matter with me last time! After that, I gave her a copy of ‘The Handsome Guy Who Was Abused by the Princess’.”

Chen Rui was even more stunned when she mentioned this matter. Athena was influenced by this great x-rated novel long ago. In order to be pregnant with his child when he was in danger during Refined Mind, she took the initiative… to perform that large-scale… She even swallowed some “turbid white liquid with a pungent smell…”

That was the first special service that he had enjoyed since he came to the Demon Realm. After all, he was also a beneficiary of certain benefits…

The expert little loli’s triumphant look seemed to have forgotten her tearful look just now, “Would you like me to recommend you some more…”

“Stop!” Chen Rui immediately stopped her. “Don’t read those books anymore. There are…some matters that you will naturally understand when you grow up.”

“I have grown up now! Some girls of my age are already married!” The little Loli caught a glimpse of her flat chest, so her confidence suddenly became a little weak. Her volume became lower. “Do you only like big-breasted…”

Chen Rui was dumbfounded- Is this “liking” directly related to big breasts?

Having said that, Athena and Kia are both… When Athena patted her chest, her two hemispheres that swayed really shocked people…

Looking at the very frustrated look of the little loli, Chen Rui quickly returned to reality from the distraction. He quickly said, “Say it this way… Alice, you are just in contact with the opposite sex now, so it created… an ambiguous good impression. It is not a real liking. When you grow up, you will run into someone who you really like and is worthy of love…”

Chen Rui reluctantly played a temporary role as an expert. He racked his brains to explain a lot. In fact, he himself had little experience, but the little loli’s eyes were getting brighter and brighter, “So… you don’t hate the girl with small breasts?”

Chen Rui was speechless for a while. After explaining with great difficulty for a long time, the little loli’s focus is actually that…

If Shea knows that I dated her younger sister, I’m afraid she will explode with terrifying power that surpasses the Demon Emperor… The point is, I really do not intend to date her younger sister, but the elder sister…

Seeing that the little loli was about to turn into a dead end, Chen Rui had to use another method to guide her.

“I just don’t like girls who are too young. Let’s make an agreement. 5 years from now, if you still don’t have a person that you like…”

She will also be a 19-year-old lady in 5 years. Even if there is something, at least I will not feel guilty. Plus, Alice is also very cute, but in terms of her attributes………………

I heard that a woman will change completely after 18 years old.

Will she?

“5 years?” The little loli tilted her head for a moment and shook her head resolutely. “No! It’s too long. Who knows how many women you will get during these years? I will probably be ranked more than hundreds!”

These sentences made Chen Rui sweat. The little loli pursed her lips and gave a deadline, “At most 1 year.”

The little loli’s idea was that there were not many competitors now, plus Athena was her good friend. Kia was also a friend. According to the “experience” in the “book”, she could definitely easily integrate into the “harem”. Then, she could unite with her 2 friends to deal with the new women.

If Chen Rui knew exactly what the little loli was thinking, the sweat on his forehead would definitely increase tenfold.

“1 year will definitely not work… 4 years.”

“1.5 years…”

In the end, the two “agreed” on 3 years. For Chen Rui, 3 years was just a tactic for delay. He believed time would dilute many things.

With this most important agreement, Alice’s previous frustration was gone. She recovered to the original little loli that was vibrant.

“You can’t tell my sister about this!” Alice’s gaze was threatening. In fact, this was what Chen Rui wanted to say, so he nodded quickly.

“In order to prevent you from backing out, I have to do one thing first” The little loli rolled her eyes, “Close your eyes now!”

As soon as he closed his eyes, he felt a warm and fresh breath approaching. It pressed gently on his lips.

When Chen Rui opened his eyes, the little loli had already landed from her tiptoes. Her fair and smooth cheeks were blushing. She dared not look at him for a while.

I’ve been kissed again! Why “again”?

To be honest, that kind of warm and soft feeling is indeed, erm, fine…

The little loli didn’t boldly stick out her tongue like the previous time. She just gave a light kiss. After all, I was pretending to be a corpse last time. This time… Looking at her shy looks, she is quite cute.

Or as Athena said, she is no longer a kid.

“Consider this to be given to you 3 years in advance… interest.” The little loli made good use of the vocabulary taught by Chen Rui with a well-experienced look. “Don’t be nervous, it is not the first time I kiss a man!”

This demeanour seemed to be saying to some girl who was assaulted – Don’t cry! I will be responsible for it. In fact, the first time was also with Chen Rui, but she knocked him off first to seize his first kiss. It should be the first kiss for both of them.

“I have already recorded it just now. If you dare to regret it, I will tell my sister that you are coveting me!” Alice triumphantly raised the recording stone in her hand. It was actually more to cover the shyness on her face.

Do you have to accuse me like that? Who is coveting who now? Chen Rui did not reason with her rationally. He just nodded.

“Okay! I am very tired today, so I can’t walk anymore. You carry me back!”

“Huh?”

“Hehe!” (Showing the recording stone)

“By the way, you have to tell a story as you walk! Something I haven’t heard before!”

If Shea knows, I bet she would be jealous rather than exploding her power… or it could be both🤷‍♂️.
