Outside the slums.

Standing outside the vegetable garden, Wood sighed as he looked at the two little ones who had just returned from the river with drinking water.

He is now more and more confused about the deaths of Buzz and Aina, the first and second deaths are still traceable, but what about the third death?

Although he was standing outside the door at the time, and the room was extremely dark, it was for Wood, who had night vision...... At a glance, you can see all the situations in the house, there was no trace of anyone in the room at that time, and there were no external injuries on the second child's body.

Judging by Buzz and Aina's sweet sleep after a busy day, it should have been a painless death.

So how exactly did they die?

Or did you get something wrong in the first place?

"Why did you get here?"

At this time, Buzz also noticed Wood's arrival, pouted, "What? Do you think the two of us can't even do watering? ”

Syllable!

On the other hand, Aina gave Buzz a violent shudder, and then ran out of the vegetable garden with her skirt and threw herself into Wood's arms.

"I'm here to see if you're lazy and leave all your work to Aina." Wood patted Aina on the head and smiled.

Hearing this, Buzz looked at Aina, who was hugging Wood like a bird, and the corners of his mouth twitched: "...... How dare I? ”

"Hahaha~~"

Wood couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, and Aina glared at Buzz fiercely, causing Buzz to shrink his neck.

Looking at the brother and sister in front of him, Wood groaned for a moment.

"Buzz, come over here."

"Huh?"

Buzz was stunned for a moment, and then came to Wood's side with some doubts, but before he could ask, a black glow lit up on Wood's body in front of him.

This scene suddenly startled the two children, and they couldn't help but take two steps back.

"Hey! Stupid, what's wrong with you? ”

Then they all looked at Wood who was wrapped in black mangs with a worried face.

"It's fine."

Wood's voice came from the black mang, although his voice did not change, but the tone of his voice was a little strange to the two children.

Before Buzz could ask, he saw that the black light gradually shrank, revealing a man with a familiar face inside, but it gave people a sense of bewitching charm.

"Don't be nervous, it's my other form."

Looking at Erxiao's nervous appearance, Wood smiled slightly, making Little Aina's face on the side couldn't help but blush.

Wood briefly explained his changes to the second child, the second child was a little difficult to accept at first, but it didn't take long for him to become familiar with it, after all, Wood has always been extremely mature in their eyes, and now this eighteen or nineteen-year-old appearance is more in line with his performance all along.

Of course, a large part of the reason why the two children can accept it so quickly is because of the affinity of the succubus's physique itself, even if they don't deliberately exert it, the natural charm power is not something that the two children can resist.

"You two stand before me."

Wood called the two little ones to him, and pressed his hands on their heads.

Immediately, he saw that the dark spots like stars in his eyes gradually swirled, and an invisible fluctuation enveloped the entire area in an instant, causing the surrounding grass and trees to begin to sway wildly.

No problem?

Wood frowned, there was nothing wrong with the two little souls, and there was no curse or anything like that, which meant that the painless death in the third 'Death Reset' was not a problem with the soul.

Not the words of the soul...... Where does that come from?

And what puzzled Wood the most was that the second child in the original 'origin' did not show any weakness or imminent death at five o'clock in the night.

But from the first 'Death Reset', everything has gotten weirder.

The first time Parker went on a rampage was after five o'clock, the second time he drowned in the shallows was five o'clock, and the third inexplicable death was also after five o'clock.

It can't be that the rules of this world are dissatisfied with their behavior of interfering with the timeline at will, and they can't erase themselves, and instead erase the existence of the second child, right?

Thinking of this, Wood shook his head, the possibility seemed to him to be almost zero.

"Wait."

Wood frowned, but suddenly remembered the legend about the jealous witch Shatilla.

Legend has it that this 'jealous witch' devoured all six witches who had been named as great sins in the past, and then devoured half of the world, and was finally sealed by the combined efforts of the dragon, the sage, and the sword master.

"Swallowed up half the world... What does this mean? ”

Wood's brows furrowed more and more, he didn't know much about this jealous witch.

But judging from the fact that the other party was able to give Natsuki the ability to 'Death Reset', which violates the rules of the world, that jealous witch may have devoured 'half of the world' in the true sense, so that her existence is equivalent to half of the rules of this world.

If you think about it this way, Parker's ice freeze at first may just be a coincidence, but the second and third times were because he killed Natsuki and angered the witch, so the two of them died at the same time.

Probably only she can hide from Wood and kill the two children quietly.

But this speculation is not reasonable at all.

I don't know how many times Caiyue was killed in the original book, and I didn't see any revenge from the sealed witch, but I just killed Caiyue once and took revenge on myself?

Not to mention......

The ability she gave to Caiyue Pleiades must be killed in order to realize the value of Caiyue Pleiades.

That being said, but just in case.

Wood directly invoked the blood energy of the blood clan, the divine power of the sleeping god in his soul world, and now his own soul power to exert protection on the two small souls; In this way, even if the jealous witch did something, he would be able to detect it at the first time.

By then......

Wood's eyes drooped slightly, and his starry eyes flashed with murderous intent.

I had to find a way to kill her.

If you can't do that......

It doesn't matter if you want to stir up ethnic contradictions, or use human ambitions to provoke a race war......

He's here to push the remaining half of the world to ruin.

Anyway, the only thing he can care about in this world is the two little ghosts in front of him.

Next, Wood did not go home, but recovered his body to accompany the two children.

He wanted to see who could take the lives of the two imps under his unwavering protection!

The afternoon went by in a blink of an eye, and Wood returned home with the two little ones to cook for the two little ghosts like yesterday, but today Cai Yue Yue did not come here, and Wood was not surprised...... If it were him, even the slums would not come.

But Caiyue Pleiades, who likes to die, has probably gone to the stolen goods warehouse now, right?

Wood looked up at the gradually darkening sky, then looked at Liang Xiao, who was drinking water, and hesitated, "Don't go back to your room to sleep yet, sit down with me." ”

"Ah~~"

Buzz yawned tiredly, "What are you going to do?" Aina and I have been busy all day, and we're so sleepy that we don't have time to hang out with you idiot. Having said that, he sat down at the stone table.

Aina's little face showed exhaustion, but she still sat up beside Wood.
