"That's not the case, father, listen to me explain it well!"

Lucy felt so tired, she had explained it many times, but why didn't anyone listen?!

Is her Lucy's words so unconvincing? Does she look like one of those girls who can deceive? Although when she is on a mission with Natsu, she often uses her beautiful face to deceive other people's sympathy, but isn't that a last resort?!

"Lucy, tell me the truth, I'm definitely not mad at you!"

"At the same time, I apologize to you for my father, just now my father's tone was too much, I hope it didn't frighten you, and the child in your belly......"

Jiude took a deep breath, he forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, and watched Lucy whisper.

"It's all said, it's not what you think!"

"And Father, please continue to be angry with me! I won't be frightened......"

Lucy wants to cry, she and Natsu are pure, but why doesn't Gyud believe it?!

"Lucy! Tell your uncle quickly! Don't let your uncle worry about ......"

"Yes! Lucy! You have to be sensible and don't worry your father. ”

"Lucy, just tell the truth~"

"That's right, that's right......"

At this moment, the people who were not too happy to watch the excitement also gathered around Lucy, and everyone smiled and preached at Lucy. For a while, all the magisters in the Fairy Tail Guild seemed to have rebelled, and they all sided with Jiude and began to count Lucy.

"Lucy, if you don't listen to others, forget it! At least you should listen to me, anyway, you hurry up and tell your uncle how many months you have! ”

Gray walked up to Lucy's side with the clothes he hadn't yet dressed, looked at Lucy with a hippie smile, and asked with a grin.

"Who are you? Why should I listen to you? ”

"Also, you hurry up and get out of the way for me~"

Lucy looked at Gray who walked in front of her, her eyes were full of disgust, she really didn't bother to pay attention to the idiot in front of her.

"Damn Lucy, is the child in your womb Mistress Gray's?"

Jubia was startled when she saw Lucy's familiar attitude towards Gray, she bit her lip and asked angrily.

"How can the child in my belly be Gray's?!"

After Lucy listened to Jubia's words, the corners of her eyes twitched, she really couldn't understand how Jubia's brain was looking for it, how to make things so complicated, such a short period of effort, and it also involved Gray.

"Ahaha......"

She confessed! Lucy admits she is pregnant with the baby herself......"

As Lucy's words fell, the crowd of Fairy Tail Guild immediately gathered around and laughed wildly at Lucy. Yes, Jubia's words just now were just a decoy to get Lucy to admit that she was actually pregnant with a child......

"You guys, you guys, you all said, it's a misunderstanding!"

After listening to the words of the demon tails in front of her, Lucy felt that her brain was about to explode, and she kept explaining to everyone.

However, no one listened to Lucy's rebuttal at all......

"Lucy, tell your uncle how old the baby is in your belly! Uncle of the province worried! ”

Harpy flapped his wings and flew to Lucy's side, whispering.

"Shut up, you stupid cat!"

Bruises twitched on Lucy's forehead as she whispered coldly to Harpy.

"Lucy, are you pregnant?"

"Then it looks like we won't be able to sleep together at night! This is actually not good for the baby in the belly! ”

At this time, Natsu walked up to Lucy, and after listening to the words of his fellow guildists, he finally understood something, so he smiled at Lucy.

"Why do you even say that?!"

Lucy was convinced at the moment, and she didn't know how to explain it to her fellow guild members.

"Anyway, the kid's dad is this stupid boy, right?!"

"Forget it, it doesn't matter!"

"Lucy, no matter what, for now you have to do what I say!"

"First of all, the child must have the surname Hatfilia......"

"I don't think you have a problem with that, right?"

Gyud appears to be talking to Lucy, but he's actually testing Natsu.

And judging by Jiude's tone, he didn't give Natsu any room for dissatisfaction at all!

Yes, in Jiude's opinion, it is already a great blessing to let a stupid boy like Natsu ride in the chariot of the Hatfilia family, so Natsu must not have any more requirements, the child must be surnamed Hatfilia, this is what he Jiude said, and no one can change it......

"It's okay!"

Natsu didn't hesitate and answered Gyude's question directly.

In fact, Natsu doesn't care about anything at all!

"That's good......"

After listening to Natsu's words, Jiude's face finally softened a little, and for a while even his attitude towards Natsu was a lot softer, even Natsu's stupid face was a lot more pleasing to Jiude's eyes, and if you look closely, Natsu is not so stupid, at least Natsu still looks like he has some brains, at least Natsu can breathe, pant, eat, and live, isn't it?!

"So now, you and Lucy and I will go home immediately to handle the matter of getting married!"

Gyude gently patted Natsu on the shoulder and spoke earnestly.

"Good!" Natsu nodded vigorously after listening to Gyude's words, and at the same time he looked at Lucy, who was sitting in the seat, and smiled brightly: "Lucy, we are about to get married!" ”

"Congratulations! Congratulations ......"

"That's good! Come on Lucy~"

"I didn't expect it to be Lucy who got married first~"

"Lucy, we'll send a congratulatory gift then~"

The magisters in the guild smiled after listening to Natsu's words and offered their blessings to Lucy.

"Hehe, these guys are hopeless!"

When Lucy looked at the magisters in the guild who were smirking at her, she knew in her heart that no matter how she explained, the fellows of the Fairy Tail Guild would not listen!

Because for this group of demon tails, they just want to have fun......

And, in the face of this situation, Lucy decided to use the way that belonged to the Fairy Tail Guild to end this farce that everyone loved to see!

So......

Lucy walked quickly over to Kana and snatched the barrel from her hand.

"Please, Kana, lend me your keg!"

Lucy's slender arms, but with a thousand powers, gently picked up Kana's nearly half-ton barrel.

"Ah......h

"My red wine!"

Kana looked at Lucy, who picked up her barrel and left, with a hint of reluctance in her eyes.

"Guys, it's rude!"

Lucy smiled, she gracefully placed the half-ton barrel in front of her father Jiude and the group of demon tails who were watching the excitement, and at the same time did not forget to politely look at the demon tail people, showing an apologetic expression.

At this moment, Lucy's good tutoring is displayed in front of everyone's eyes, which is engraved in the bones, passed down in the DNA, and belongs to the high-class posture of the Hatfilia family.

"Forehead ......"

However, at this moment, Jiude had no intention of appreciating his daughter's good tutoring, he had been frightened by Lucy's movements, his face turned pale, and his forehead continued to sweat.

"Lu, Lucy, what do you want to do?!"

Gyude asked as he looked at Lucy and winced.

At the same time, deep in Jiude's heart, he was shouting wildly.

"Open, open, open......"

"What are you kidding?!"

"Lucy, that kid can carry such a heavy barrel by herself? Still put it in front of me with great ease? This level of arm strength can't even be done by my bodyguards, right? But luckily, I don't have to worry about Lucy being in danger outside......"

"It's just that what has this kid learned in the past year and a half outside? That's changing a little too fast, isn't it? ”

"Also, I just wanted to educate Lucy like I did when I was a child?! If Lucy, who has such arm strength, had accidentally fought back, would I have died on the spot? ”

At this moment, Jiude's heart has been turbulent because of Lucy's small movements.

He couldn't believe what he had just seen, his eldest daughter Lucy, who didn't leave the door and didn't step out of the second door, had become so powerful in just one year?!

I'm afraid that with Lucy's physique now, it's no longer something he can deal with! Even if he Jiude fought hard and struck with all his might, for the current Lucy, it is estimated that it is like a light drop of rain, weak and weak!

As for what kind of consequences will be caused once Lucy subconsciously fights back, Jiude didn't dare to think about it for a while, Jiude only had one thought in his heart at this moment, that is, "What kind ......of experience is it to raise a daughter with natural divine power who can shoot me to death with a light slap?!" 》

At this moment, Jiude's mind was full of remorse, he shouldn't have let his daughter learn any magic in the first place, but now it's okay, his daughter's body is comparable to a monster, he can't beat it now, and he can't scold and scold......

"Smack~"

Just as Jiude looked at Lucy's frightened face, Lucy patted the wine barrel in front of him lightly, and smashed the lid on the barrel directly, revealing the clear wine inside.

"What do you mean?!"

"Is this threatening me? This must be threatening me, right? ”

"Does Lucy mean that she can smash the old man's head like she would smash a barrel?"

Jiude looked at his good daughter in front of him, showing him the appearance of breaking the wine barrel with his bare hands, and his eyes instantly widened.

"Guys, I don't think we're calm right now, we can't have a good conversation! Therefore, I think everyone should calm down first......"

Lucy looked at Jiude, at the fellow musicians in the guild, and suddenly smiled, and she smiled so beautifully, like a golden sunflower blooming in the sun.

Lucy's smile was so bright that it made all the demon tails in the guild feel terrified......

"Open it! Aquarius Gate! Akuia!

”

Immediately after that, Lucy didn't wait for everyone to say more, and immediately took out one of the keys to the zodiac tied around her waist, the key of Aquarius, and inserted it into the wine barrel, and then turned it slightly......

As the barrel in front of Lucy peeled off and rippled, a mermaid wearing a blue bikini on the upper body and a fish body on the lower body appeared out of thin air in the hall of the Fairy Tail Guild.

"It's salted fish ......"

Harpy looked at the beautiful mermaid that suddenly appeared, and drooled disgustingly.

"No matter how you look at it, you know it's not a salted fish, right?"

After listening to Harpy's words, Lucy turned and retorted.

"Lucy! How many times have I said it, don't summon me in strange places! ”

After being summoned by Lucy, Quiya fell into the wine barrel, and it was at the moment when Akia entered the barrel that the beautiful mermaid with a handsome face immediately stretched up green tendons on her forehead, and at the same time pressed her slender jade hand, like a white bone claw of nine yin, on Lucy's head.

Because Aquaia is the star spirit of Aquarius, she is extremely sensitive to liquids, and the feeling of the wine soaking her skin at this moment makes Aquaia's face change for a while......

"This is a bar?!"

At this, Aqua looked at Lucy and narrowed her eyes.

Beneath Akuiyana's narrowed eyes were two dangerous and murderous lights.

"I'm sorry! Akuia ......"

Lucy looked at Aquaya, who had been summoned by her, and sincerely apologized.

At this moment, Lucy knew very well in her heart that if there was a slight deviation, she would immediately leave this beautiful world......

"Humph! Go ahead! What did you summon me here for?! ”

Seeing that Lucy's apology was extremely sincere, Aquaya immediately put away the anger in her heart, she slowly released her finger on Lucy's head, and asked Lucy at the same time.

"Akuia, please let everyone calm down, I think everyone in the guild is not calm now, they all need your help!"

Lucy rubbed her head, to be honest, Akuiya's strength was too strong just now, her head was almost pinched by Aguia, and she looked righteous and awe-inspiring, all for the sake of her companions in the guild, watching Akuia preach.

"Really?"

"Since this is your request, there is no way!"

"But I don't care what will happen next~"

Akuiya said, lifting the white water bottle in his hand, and for a while, the water molecules in the air, the wine in the barrel in the guild, and the clear water flow in the water pipe all converged towards Aguia's white water bottle.

"I suddenly had a sense of foreboding......"

Jubia, who was extremely sensitive to water magic, immediately changed her face after feeling the water molecules in the air converging towards Akuia, and she looked at the group of companions in the guild and spoke tremblingly.

"Ahh We've already noticed ......"

Gray and the others stood at Archia's side and bowed their heads gently, they were not blind, they could naturally see the magic power gathered in Archia's white water bottle, and the huge magic power was almost visible to the naked eye.

As long as you are a person in the wizarding world, there is no one who does not know what will happen when someone's condensed magic has reached the point where it is visible to the naked eye. There is no doubt that it is definitely brewing great magic, and it is super magic at the level of the law of the elves......

"you!"

Without waiting for everyone to think about it, Akuiya, who was still in a ladylike posture, holding a water bottle and posing in the form of a goddess, suddenly waved the white porcelain bottle in her hand towards everyone, and at the same time her face was hideous, and she roared loudly.

It was also at the same time that Akuia roared, the endless stream of water was thrown out of Akuia's water bottle towards Lucy and the others, and for a while, the cold water fell on the cheeks of everyone in the Fairy Tail Guild......

But that's not all! As a star spirit, Akuia's strength is absolutely top-notch, and under Akuiya's full force, he actually created a terrifying torrent comparable to a great flood, directly involving all the magisters in the hall of the Fairy Tail Guild, and then rushing towards the river outside the Fairy Tail Guild......

In the blink of an eye, the entire guild hall had been soaked in water, and the magisters in the Fairy Tail Guild had already floated in the river like chickens in soup.

"That's it, right?"

When Aqua had done all this, she shook her long water-stained hair and looked at Lucy and asked.

"Hmmm! Enough ~"

Lucy nodded with a smile after listening to Aquaia's words.

"Next time, don't let me see you, and summon me in strange places like you do today! Otherwise, I really won't be able to control myself and slaughter you~"

After listening to Lucy's words, Akuia's body slowly turned into golden points of light, and at the same time warned Lucy.

However, under Akuiyana's warning, it was an endless spoiling of Lucy, after all, few star spirits would accompany their masters, so unreasonable nonsense.

"Know, I know~bye-bye~"

When Lucy heard Aquaia's words, a cold sweat broke out on her forehead.

Of course, Lucy knows that Akuiya is also a knife-mouthed tofu heart, and the evidence is that she Lucy can live so safely in this world......

At the same time, Lucy's assurance is useless in the eyes of Akuiya, and Akuiya also knows that Lucy, the girl, apologizes faster than anyone else, but she will dare to ...... next time

"In that case, you should be able to listen to me, right?"

After Akuiya turned into a point of light and disappeared, Lucy asked with a smile as she looked at the group of demon tails who were soaking in the river with her.

"Know, know ......"

After listening to Lucy's words, the magisters in the Fairy Tail Guild bowed their heads one after another, indicating that they understood.

Just now, Lucy has proven her strength to everyone......

Yes, although she Lucy is very good, but the star spirit she summons is not!

The main reason for limiting the strength of the star spirit is just because she, as a summoner, is not mature enough, otherwise every star spirit in the zodiac can exert a strength comparable to the Ten Holy Magisters, or even above the Ten Holy Magisters!

So, after all the magisters in the Fairy Tail Guild calmed down......

Once again, they returned to the halls of the Fairy Tail Guild.

"Father~"

Lucy and Jiude sat opposite each other, at this moment the mood of the father and daughter completely reversed, you must know that when Jiude came, it was Lucy who had been fidgeting, but now it has been completely replaced by Jiude's restless appearance, after all, just now Jiude's bodyguards have been killed by Lucy in seconds.

"In!"

When Gyude heard Lucy's words, his body trembled and his chest puffed up.

At this moment, Jiude didn't dare to put on any elder majesty in front of Lucy......

"Alas......"

Lucy looked at Jiude, who was trembling slightly, and sighed helplessly, she didn't want to talk to her father like this, but who made her father always unable to calm down and listen to her talk nonsense?!

At this moment, Lucy has been completely assimilated by the fairy tail, and at the same time, she has not learned the secret technique of a fairy tail guild, that is......

The elders are disobedient? It's okay, just give it a beating......

"Well, I didn't have anybody's child in my belly!"

"It's just a little bit fatter lately, just a little bit of course!"

As she spoke, Lucy deliberately sucked her lower abdomen to make herself look less fat.

"I'm telling the truth, and I want you to believe me!"

Lucy had a serious look on her face, she really wanted her father to trust her.

"I see! With your strength, I'm sure they shouldn't dare to ...... you."

After listening to Lucy's words, Jiude nodded vigorously, he had already seen Lucy's strength, so it shouldn't happen that his daughter was deceived by a scumbag outside......

On the contrary, at this moment, Jiude was a little scared, his daughter would do something to attack the boys at night, in short, if the girls of the Fairy Tail Guild had such strength, Jiude could only pray more to the boys walking at night in Magnolia Town......

"I always feel like you've misunderstood, father......"

"And father, are you thinking about something strange and rude?"

Lucy looked at Jiude's appearance and subconsciously narrowed her eyes.

"Don't dare!"

Gyude felt Lucy's gaze and immediately panicked, shaking his head at the same time.

At this moment, Jiude is really afraid of his eldest daughter......

"Anyway, Father, I don't want to go home yet! And I want to continue working hard in the Fairy Tail Guild as a Magister of the Fairy Tail Guild! Father, it's my dream, I'm serious! ”

Lucy looked at Gyude and spoke loudly about her dreams.

"I see!"

Jiude looked at Lucy's sincere eyes, looked stunned, and then nodded slightly.

After Jiude calmed down, he also felt Lucy's determination, and at the same time, he ......

Jiude didn't dare to drag Lucy back to the family casually, even if it was really according to his arrangement, Lucy took his place, and at the same time married the children of a large family that was beneficial to the Hatfilia family, Jiude was also afraid that Lucy would be unhappy after marriage, and then destroyed the other party's entire family in a fit of rage......

Jiude believes that Lucy has this strength! Maybe the fairy tail is Lucy's final destination.

If you enter the Fairy Tail Guild, there is no reason to go out! One day is a demon tail man, and a demon tail man all his life!

"Ah......h

Lucy looked at the change in the mood on Jiude's face, she always felt that her father must have misunderstood her again, but she didn't bother to explain anything, maybe it was good to get the lake over like this, anyway, the matter was settled.

"Uncle Jiude, long time no see!"

"I didn't expect you to come to our guild today~ It's really strange, are you here to see Lucy?!"

Just when Lucy thought that everything was over, a handsome young man with short brown and red hair pushed open the door of the Fairy Tail Guild, and he walked straight to Jiude with a lost face, smiling and saying hello.

"You, who are?!"

"Yin Wen?!"

When Jiude heard the slightly familiar voice, he looked up, and when he saw the young man's appearance, he was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes showed a hint of abruptness.

Yes, the handsome brown-haired young man who pushed open the door of the guild and walked in was none other than Yin Wen......

"By the way, this is Fairy Tail, that is, the Magister Guild that Yin Wen you joined!"

Only then did Jiude remember that the name of the Magister Guild that Yin Wen had joined was Fairy Tail.

"It seems that Uncle Jiude has forgotten the name of the Magister Guild I joined~"

Yin Wen looked at Jiude and quipped.

"No, no, no, you have helped our Hatfilia family so much, how dare I forget, it's just that there have been too many things recently, and I haven't thought about it for a while......"

Jiude waved his hand towards Yin Wen, and at this moment, Jiude returned to his former businessman posture, using skilled communication skills to smile with Yin Wen.

Although Yin Wen is relatively close to the Hatfilia family, because most of what Yin Wen does is related to Layla, she rarely meets Jiude, and even when she does, she just politely says hello, but she is also familiar with each other.

"However, since the little girl is in Yin Wen's guild, I am much more relieved."

Jiude breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Yin Wen.

Jiude still recognizes Yin Wen's strength and character.

He thought that since Yin Wen was so good, then the Magister Guild that Yin Wen joined would not be too bad......

"Forehead ......"

"Brother Yin Wen, do you know my father?"

Lucy looked at Yin Wen, who was chatting happily with her father, and couldn't help asking.

"Lucy, didn't I say it all? You Hatfilia are my old patrons, so isn't it normal that I know Uncle Gyude and Lady Layla? ”

Yin Wen looked at Lucy's appearance and said with a smile.

"Forehead ......"

After Lucy listened to Yin Wen's words, she remembered the previous scene when Yin Wen threatened her with her family's affairs.

The memories she had forgotten were now suddenly awakened and attacked her......

"Anyway, Lucy will be handed over to Yin Wen, and you from the Fairy Tail Guild!"

"I remembered that I still had something to do, so I retreated first!"

Jiude didn't give Lucy, Yin Wen and the others a chance to refute, he got up from his seat, and then immediately walked towards the outside of the Fairy Tail Guild. It seems that just one more minute in the Fairy Tail Guild will be enough to kill Kutoku......

"So, what exactly did you do to Uncle Kude?!"

"After all, they are the big employers of our Fairy Tail Guild, and every year the Hatfilia family provides a large amount of money for Fairy Tail! You didn't offend him, did you? ”

Yin Wen looked at Jiude, who had fled, and turned to look at the mages of the guild and asked.

"Forehead ......"

After Lucy and the others felt Yin Wen's gaze, they all turned their heads, not daring to look directly at Yin Wen's gaze.

"Huh?!"

Yin Wen looked at the scene in front of her and raised her eyebrows slightly.

But after a while, Yin Wen let go of his frowning brow, after all, Jiude is Lucy's biological father, presumably Lucy should take good care of Jiude......

A few days later......

The Kingdom of Fiore, the ancient home of the Hatfilia family.

After several days in his own private carriage, Gyude finally returned here.

"Welcome to the master~"

The servants of the watchmen, after seeing that it was Jiude, immediately opened the gate of the manor.

"Jiude, you're back~"

And Leila, who is the true patriarch of the Hatfilia family, has already stood in front of the door of the manor house, quietly waiting for the return of Jiude.

"How's Lucy's girl?"

Layla asked with a smile as she looked at the returning Jiude.

"Madame......"

"Lucy's girl has grown up! She's learned to threaten me! ”

"And the fairy tail is too dangerous, there is no serious person, I will never go again!"

As soon as Jiude saw Layla, he hugged Layla's thigh and kept crying.

In Jiude's eyes, the Fairy Tail Guild is simply a person who can be called a human!

Of course, this also includes his daughter, Lucy......

Lucy is certainly not a serious person!

Lucy, a diary writer, can a diary writer be a serious person?

Serious people, who writes the days? Cheap!

"It's okay, Jiude~"

"It's okay~"

"I won't go in the future, I won't go~"

"Hurry up and send the master into the house, the master has been bumpy all the way, and now he is very tired~"

Layla gently stroked Gyude's back, soothing Gyude's heart, and asked softly to the servants.

Although Layla's tone was very soft, none of the servants dared not listen......

In the entire Hatfilia family, there was no one who dared not listen to Layla, and even Gyude was the leader of Layla......

At this moment, Jiude's family status is 'unobstructed'......

Yes, in the eyes of outsiders, Jiude, who is extremely beautiful, can actually be regarded as the number two person in the Hatfilia family, after all, Jiude is rich, and Layla is the head and heir of the Hatfilia family, but now with the rise of Lucy, Jiude can't even protect the position of the second person!

"Lucy's girl has finally grown~"

"I don't know how far her magic cultivation has been?!"

"But presumably, in an environment like the Fairy Tail Guild, as long as Lucy wants to live, she has to constantly improve her strength~"

"Lucy, don't blame your mother, your mother and father will leave your side one day, we can't protect you for a lifetime, now you cultivate a little more painfully, you can live a easier life in the future~"

As the servants helped Gyude into the living room, Layla smiled softly. Perhaps, in Jiude's opinion, the secret to the strength of the Hatfilia family is the family's business! However, in Layla's view, business or anything is meaningless......

What can really make the Hatfilia family pass on is not these false things, but the root of the Hatfilia family's hundreds of years of time that has been passed down to the present, that is, star spirit magic! Layla was happy from the bottom of her heart to see Lucy's strength growing......

Strength is the foundation of a family and the world!

However, Layla will not say these words to Jiude, in Layla's opinion, Jiude is like now, it is enough to do business in a down-to-earth manner and work hard to earn money for the Hatfilia family! Whether it's Jiude or Lucy, it's enough to do something that makes them happy! That's what Layla wants to see......

After Jiude was scared away by Lucy from the Fairy Tail Guild, neither Jiude nor Layla bothered Lucy, so that Lucy lived a seemingly leisurely life~ In Lucy's opinion, her problems have been preliminarily solved......

At the same time, with the initial solution of Lucy's problems, Lucy concentrated on the adventurous life of the Magus who went on a mission with Natsu and others, as well as her cultivation!

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, November has come, and the S-level Magister assessment of the Fairy Tail Guild has quietly approached the Magus in the guild.

As that day draws closer......

The magisters in the Fairy Tail Guild have also entered the final involution!

"I'm sorry, Lucy!"

"I can't go on a mission with you for the time being, and I won't be returning to the guild anytime soon~"

Natsu apologized to Lucy, then packed his bags and sped out of the guild.

"Love~"

Harpy also put on his backpack and posed as if he was going out of the house.

"Huh?"

This stunned Lucy, but she didn't say anything.

"Really, Natsu or Harpy, what are they doing? Looks like a rush ......"

Lucy muttered, although she felt a little confused, but it involved personal privacy, and Lucy was not easy to ask.

Until Lucy returned to the Fairy Tail guild......

Looking at the Magus of the Fairy Tail Guild who were standing in a row in front of the guild's task board, waiting for the task, her eyes widened.

"What the hell is this going on?!"

"The magisters in the guild, why aren't they diligent yet?!"

Lucy couldn't believe what she was seeing.

Even Lucy once suspected that the world was about to end?!

Because in Lucy's opinion, it is more important to make the lazy people of the Fairy Tail Guild so diligent than the chance that the world will end soon......
