Chapter 66: Chapter 63: I Don’t Want a Baby Yet


[At eighteen, you saw a vehicle that doesn’t go to the kindergarten. You’re curious and even tempted to get on.]


[But recalling the Demon King’s disdain for you in the Maze, and his flirtatious behavior, you decided to cut him down.]


Chloe, who was admiring the "Pajama Party: Rephya," withdrew her gaze.


Xiaolu’s thoughts are quite dangerous.


But coincidentally, the task he needs to do this time is even more perilous.


He feels after this simulation, Xiaolu’s resentment towards him will reach a new height.


[You start to pay attention to the relationship between the Beauty President and the Demon King.]


[You’re surprised to find that the once unattainable flower, when facing the Demon King, exhibits even more emotion than usual.]


[Especially when you occasionally see the Demon King hiding in a corner with Senior Sister Fufu, you can always feel soaring resentment and a faint lemon scent.]


[One day, the Demon King cornered you at the Association’s wall, and you choose:]


["I don’t want to have a baby yet!"]


In the corner of the Association, the Demon King Chloe glared fiercely while the brave Rephya trembled with fear.


Chloe watched as Rephya’s curious gaze gradually turned into fear, and said as he approached:


"Xiaolu, you still like to peek so much."


"I-I didn’t!" Rephya tried hard to defend herself, waving her little hands non-stop, "I don’t want to have a baby yet!"


This cute and aggrieved statement even made Chloe pause in his tracks.


He said irritably:


"Xiaolu, how did you also learn to be as nonsensical as President Lilith?"


Rephya pouted:


"I’m not Xiaolu, it’s not cute at all when Senior calls me that."


Chloe shrugged.


What else could he do?


When Fufu called Rephya Xiaolu, the first thing that came to his mind was a certain MOBA game’s AD attachment.


Who’s little deer girl is that.jpg


Then the painting style started heading in a bizarre direction.


Seeing Chloe falling into deep thought, you muster the courage to put your hands on your hips and say:


"Senior, clearly you didn’t reject Senior Sister Lilith, and I clearly remember you and Senior Sister Fufu at the Lantern Festival..."


Chloe was shocked: "Fufu even told you about that stuff?"


[You froze in place, recalling the last simulation, the morning after the Lantern Festival, seeing Senior Sister Ao Fufu on the Association’s rooftop, frowning in effort.]


[Then you remembered that night, in the middle of the night, using your Pure Enchanting Demon ability to have an embarrassing dream.]


[Due to lack of material in the dream, you could only imagine yourself grabbing a desk, listening to the squeaky sounds of the desk corner, trying to find a feeling.]


[Then you couldn’t find any feeling at all due to inexperience.]


[You quietly asked the senior if he didn’t like Senior Sister Fufu anymore.]


[He was surprised, giving you a puzzled look and saying if he didn’t like her, how could he do such things.]


[But he clearly still has contact with the President — does that count as liking too?]


[After this talk, some time passed, and the Ethereal Emblem had a short break, Senior Sister Fufu found you and asked if you wanted to travel together, you chose:]


["Does the senior want to go?"]


In reality.


Chloe, squeezing into a small bed with Rephya, frowned.


This time, the place they are going is an artificial maze called the Jade Forest.


It was originally a low-risk maze, typically abandoned after being conquered.


However, the maze’s environment was too beautiful.


Due to strong requests from past students, the school kept ownership of the maze and arranged for the merchants’ association to begin preliminary development on it.


In the game, Rephya and her group also came here.


Girls with different styles had a great time playing in the hot springs of the Jade Forest.


But this time turned into him inviting Fufu to go, and Fufu invited others.


But it was all within his expectations.


Once the simulation started, the wayward Chloe went online.


To achieve goals through simulation, I want it!


To have a good time in the simulation, I also want it!


I want it all!


Indeed, after finally having a few relaxing days, Fufu started ’suffering’ again.


Hearing about the trip to the Jade Forest, Fufu was very tempted.


But really a bit afraid of being transparent.


Just after Chloe’s battle, while massaging her bloated tummy, he asked if she wanted to go to the Jade Forest together.


Fufu agreed without hesitation.


Then she turned her head to call Rephya, asking her if she wanted to travel together.


Even though Chloe expected it, he still frowned.


It seems that some problems became troublesome after becoming stronger.


Although Chloe deliberately wanted Fufu to fear high-intensity activities, and invited a few light bulbs for a good sleep at night, when it really happened, he was still speechless.


"Okay, don’t be mad. Just let me rest for a few days."


Fufu wrapped her arms around his neck, speaking gently.


Chloe fully absorbed Fufu’s tenderness, thinking to himself:


"There’s a nice hidden equipment refresh point in the Jade Forest, but if Xiaolu doesn’t go, that refresh point may not trigger smoothly."


Xiaolu wants to find that refresh point in reality but doesn’t know when it’ll happen.


He also needs to update his equipment, so he chooses...


Let me assist you.jpg


Chloe chuckled and lifted Fufu, who was still on the phone, amidst her soft protests, as another battle unfolded.


What is Rephya up to?


She’s still simulating.


["Ch-Chloe~ um~ he’s going too."]


[You find it a bit strange why Senior Sister Fufu is stammering on the other end of the line, but soon, after hearing a suppressed scream, you hang up the phone blushing]


[Upon knowing that the senior will go with her, you guess that Senior Sister Fufu must’ve been bullied terribly]


[But you never expected that while being on the phone with you, Senior Sister Fufu was also being bullied by that bad person]


[You don’t really want to interfere with their world, yet somehow, you still send a message agreeing]


[You ponder for a moment and feel that just being there alone might not stop Chloe, so you choose:]


[Pure Enchanting Demon Aisha, it’s decided!]


[You tell your roommate Aisha that the seniors from the association are planning a trip to the Jade Forest and ask if she wants to go]


[Aisha agreed]


[On the day of departure, you stand at the Duel Plaza, finding it crowded]


[Seniors who are usually hard to spot gather together, and there are many citizens from other places as well]


[It is then that you realize that the period while the Ethereal Emblem is open for Maze tours is also the peak tourist season for your city]


[Even though it’s an artificial maze, it’s not to be taken lightly—given there’s no way to make big money]


[Every year at this time, crowds come to visit the risk-free maze, and students are indeed the smallest group among them]


[But now you’re embarrassed, because you arrived too early and were the first to see Senior Chloe]


[The number of students at the Duel Plaza is not small, with many casting strange glances your way, just because there’s a glaring light bulb beside you]


[You feel like you’re being slaughtered by the surrounding gazes, with envious and disdainful looks surrounding you]


[It is then that you realize that most of the student party heading to the Maze tours are couples]


[But adding everyone present, they can’t grab as much attention as the two of you, and you just wish Senior Sister Fufu and the others would hurry up and arrive]


[You regret it deeply, as you left, Aisha suggested dressing up together before going out, but you refused, which led to such an outcome]


[It wasn’t until they arrived, fashionably late, that you realize only 10 minutes had passed, and it wasn’t even the agreed-upon time]


[The scenery of the Jade Forest is beautiful, with gem trees that only exist in this maze sprawled throughout the Jade Forest]


[You were very excited to play there for a long time, until you reached a valley where you planned to camp]


[Chloe talked to you about a rumor that circulated among students about a Great Treasure existing in the Jade Forest, said to be the legacy of Golden Elves, you choose:]


["Great Treasure is definitely a hoax."]


[But Chloe says, "No, the Great Treasure really exists."]


[You freeze in place and only learn from his lips that someone at the academy truly brought something out from the Great Treasure, the Vice Principal’s alchemical balance was obtained here]


[You’re curious about how Chloe knows this, and Chloe says, "Want to know? Call me Daddy," you’re furious, and you choose:]


["Daddy!"]


[The dutiful daughter gets praise from the father, Chloe never saw such a shameless person, but he held up his end of the bargain, only then you learn that Master Heisha once picked up an egg from the Great Treasure]


[That egg hatched into a little elf, who later settled down at the Ethereal Emblem, now more people call her Nini]


[Indeed, the home of the Treasure Elf is in this seemingly ordinary Jade Forest]


[You develop a strong desire to see the Great Treasure, you choose:]


["Daddy, I’m really curious!"]


[You plan to ask about the Great Treasure’s situation, having listened to fairy tales since childhood, you have no resistance to such things]


[The senior tells you how to open the Great Treasure, and the two of you proceed to nearby to investigate]


[Originally you just intended to give it a try without truly expecting to see the Great Treasure, but surprisingly, you find a twisting light gate before you]


[The gate of the Great Treasure opens to you, you choose:]


[Without any remorse for calling someone Daddy, the legendary Elf Treasure stands before you]


[You retrieve a special weapon from the treasure]


[You receive the Special Weapon: Shattered Cloud Sword]


[Chloe won’t tell you what he received]


[That night, you hold your special weapon, too excited to sleep, imagining dancing with your sword like in past days but disheartened to find you’re no longer that prodigy]


[You feel somewhat sad and go out to admire the moon, under the moonlight the Jade Forest appears like a slumbering fairyland]


[You hear a strange sound, tiny yet prolonged, mixed with embarrassment and an unspeakable happiness, you choose:]


[Let me see what’s going on?]


[Under the moonlight, you freeze in place]


[Though Aisha always liked dressing in scorching outfits, she was in fact quite innocent, yet now she’s being held, her body moving up and down as the traits of an Enchanting Demon spread]


[And the person behind her... is Chloe]
