Chapter 19: A New Day Begins with a Fight with the Tentacles
Tentacles scurrying around the room.
It had taken a bite of almost everything it could find, but—all again.
Bad.
Unable to swallow.
In a large room, there was nothing to eat.
What the hell is this place?!
After a period of venting destruction, its movements slowed down. Because it realized that it could not waste its energy like this anymore, if it could no longer find something to eat, and that it was too weak to open that door and get out of here......
Yourself, you shouldn't be starved to death here, right?!
Thinking of this, the tentacles felt a sense of grievance. In the original world, it was a notorious existence, and it would eat whoever it wanted, and it would never just take two bites if it wanted to take three bites. But now, ...... for yourself
Well, "I" should still be quite free, at most I was slightly injured when I passed through that rift, and I should still continue to be powerful in that world.
Because he is not really "himself", he is just an insignificant end on one of the countless tentacles on the real "self".
Because of that accident, it was separated from the ontology, and the space-time barrier between the world and the world cut off its connection with the ontology, so it gave birth to self-consciousness.
Woo...... I'm so hungry...... It's so cold......
Unable to find food, the tentacles had to crawl back into the body bag, which was at least warmer than outside.
Hey? Seem...... Got a delicious smell?
The tentacles that were already lying flat in the body bag suddenly made an unexpected discovery.
Before, it was in a hurry to get out, not even noticing the vague smell, but now, hunger had magnified its sense of smell countless times, and it suddenly discovered something it hadn't noticed before.
- Right at the bottom of the bag, there is a thin layer of water vapor. Although it is almost negligible, it is now a lifesaver for tentacles.
The tentacles carefully poked out the tip and gently licked the water vapor as the functions in the body activated and began to analyze the composition of the "food".
- The main component is a liquid made up of two elements, which happen to also be found in its own world, hydrogen and oxygen.
- The secondary component is an electrolyte that can be dissolved in the liquid above.
But neither of these ingredients is important, the most important thing is something that cannot be classified as either matter or energy, and the tentacles cannot tell what it is, but they can be sure that the delicious taste comes from it.
What's more, after eating this delicious thing, its physical strength actually recovered a little!
For a moment, the tentacles were so excited that they seemed to see the god who saved them.
prprprprprpr……
Driven by a strong feeling of hunger, it greedily licked up all the moisture that remained at the bottom of the body bag.
……
"Hmm......"
Summer Night is very glad that on the first night I crossed into this world, I had a good night's sleep.
Thanks to Lillian.
Although her home is not big, the bedroom is surprisingly large - this is not a joke, but the meaning of the summer night is that there are two beds in this large bedroom.
According to Lillian, she occasionally came to sleep here before her mother left. Of course, this "occasional" is really very "occasional", and it is often not necessary to sleep here once for weeks in a row.
And now, the second 'king' Summer Night has smoothly taken over the bed. And unlike the previous one, she was a "diligent" king, and for the next period of time, she would sleep on it every day.
Summer Night, dressed in pajamas, sat up with her upper body and stretched out a big lazy waist.
The pajamas are borrowed from Lillian, and the texture is light and soft, and the creamy white surface is also embellished with a cute six-pointed star pattern.
Get up.
Summer Night was not ready to lie in bed again, she pulled her white and tender feet out of the bed, stepped on the spotless floor, and stood up from the side of the bed.
Then, start unbuttoning your pajamas one by one.
Speaking of which, the pajamas are borrowed from Lilian, and there is only one set of dresses, and there are no necessities such as crystal balls and brooms at all, so I really need to go to the big purchase.
As she pondered her next arrangement, Summer Night stripped herself naked, and she picked up the dress with the skirt braces and corset from the hanger, only to realize that she didn't know how to put it on.
Click-
The bedroom door suddenly opened, and Lillian pushed it in.
"Sister Summer Night, get up...... Hey, you're awake. Good morning, Sister Summer Night, breakfast is ready, come and eat! ”
Lillian saw Natsu Night's body, a body that was almost wearing nothing, but unlike the "ah" scream in the anime, Lillian didn't react at all.
Because witches are awviparous creatures that reproduce asexually, "love" is a completely unknown concept to them, and as for the "accidentally bumping into a change of clothes", which is a favorite part of human beings, it is even more incomprehensible to them.
"Lilian, you're just in ...... time"
Since the other party didn't feel shy, Summer Night naturally acted as if nothing had happened, she beckoned to Lillian and said, "Come and help me put on this dress." ”
"Okay."
The girl in the apron trotted to Summer Night's side, helped her put on the white Lolita-style dress, and after arranging the sleeves and skirt, Lilian went around behind her and helped her tighten the ties around her waist a little.
"Sister Summer Night, I have a question." The girl's voice sounded behind her.
"Huh?"
"Looking at the design of this dress, in fact, one person can wear it."
"So?"
"So I'm guessing, maybe Sister Summer Night has lost her memory of how to dress, right?"
"......" For a moment, Summer Night almost thought that Lillian had doubts about her identity. But when she turned her gaze and glanced at Lillian's expression behind her, she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Hmph...... Only, only not! It's just that I forgot how to wear it all of a sudden. She said "annoyed".
"Hee-hee, sometimes I think that Sister Summer Night, who has forgotten some simple common sense of life, is quite cute." The girl chuckled and tied her waist, "Let me help Sister Xia Ye get dressed in the future!" ”
“……”
Breakfast was bread, omelette, and a blue drink made with a little magic and the juice of a plant. Lilian's cooking skills are obviously not only "miscellaneous fish specialty", but also her simple breakfast is also very delicious.
After breakfast, Summer Night stood up, walked to the hat rack, took off the triangular hood, and fastened it around his neck.
"I'm going to go out and I'll be back soon." She said to Lillian, who was cleaning up the dishes.
"Okay." Lillian replied, not asking what she was going out for on a summer night, "Will you be back for dinner at noon?" ”
"Yes." "In the afternoon, let's go out and do some shopping, hats, dresses, pajamas, crystal balls, brooms," said Summer Night...... There's a lot to buy. ”
"Okay!" Lillian happily replied, it seems that no matter what world the girl is, she is very interested in buying, buying, buying.
"Well, I'm out of the house."
Wearing a triangular hood, Summer Night turned to go out the door, and she was about to go to the room where she was reborn again, because just last night, lying in bed, she suddenly realized that she had left a place that she had not checked.
Body bag.
Yes, I rummaged through everything in the room, but I forgot the body bag that contained my body.
This is probably the so-called dark under the lamp......
You might be able to find some clues from the body bag, and through this clue, you might be able to investigate the whereabouts of your head.
The destination arrived quickly.
Summer Night pondered the question as she opened the door to the room with the code Lillian had told her.
"Tss
Before she could enter the room, a dark figure the thickness of an arm rushed towards her.
