Chapter 6 So you're a nurturing type!
Chapter 6 So you're a nurturing type!
The image freezes.
The comments section froze for a moment.
March 7th rubbed her red eyes, sobbing and hitting Lu Li's arm: "That's too much, Lu Li... so you're a nurturing type, huh?"
"You named Kaffa? You're such a smooth talker!"
However, as he spoke, he seemed to have thought of something.
March 7th grabbed Lu Li's shoulders and shook him violently, her little face puffed up with anger.
"Well, Lu Li, you hypocrite!"
"You used to be so considerate, tying girls' shoelaces for them."
"But when you help me with chores or make coffee for Himeko-nee, you're too lazy to even lift a finger to add an extra piece of sugar!"
Lu Li, whose head was spinning from being shaken, remained silent.
He was numb by then.
Sister, what does it mean to be considerate?
Any normal person would have their OCD triggered by seeing such a messy, knotted mess, right?
Not to mention that Kafka had never even worn a proper pair of shoes back then.
however.
No matter what he complained about in his heart, he kept making excuses on his own... cough cough.
It's inexplicable.
Just as Lu Li was about to continue pretending to be dead and giving up,
next moment.
The notification sound that flashed through his mind suddenly made Lu Li's eyes light up.
【Ding! 】
[The first phase of the storyline has been revealed, and rewards have been credited to your account.]
[Audience emotional level: 50% emotional impact, 80% shock level.]
[Extracting past life abilities...]
[Congratulations, host, you have obtained: Word of Power - Domination (Beginner)!]
[Effect: Allows the user to issue absolute commands to any target whose willpower is weaker than their own. Can be used three times daily.]
As the system notification sounded.
A strange energy surged from Lu Li's body and quickly spread throughout his entire body.
The throat, which had seemed welded shut, suddenly felt a sense of complete control.
Not only that, Lu Li was also shocked to discover something else.
It seems that every word I say now can guide the flow of etheric energy around me according to my own consciousness.
Lu Li, feeling a little dizzy from being shaken by March 7th, subconsciously moved his lips.
"Let go in March."
The words fell.
next moment.
On March 7th, the hands that were originally gripping Lu Li's shoulders jerked away as if they had been electrocuted.
Lu Li was stunned.
Ok?
He can speak now?
Has the system lifted the ban?
March 7th was also stunned.
She looked at her palm, then at Lu Li's incredulous expression.
"Lu Li, you...you just now..."
Himeko and Welt stood up at the same time.
This feeling...
"Words of power?"
Walter adjusted his glasses, his tone tinged with shock.
"No medium is needed; simply uttering bytes can interfere with the will of others... indeed, it is the power of words."
"Lu Li, when did you awaken this ability?"
Lu Li: "..."
All he wanted to do at that moment was bang his head against a wall.
Good news, the system's ban has finally been lifted.
Bad news, the timing of the lifting of the ban was inappropriate.
The system's reward distribution and lifting of the ban were "perfectly timed."
The moment this power of words was unleashed, it was as if he were saying to the three people in front of him: That's right, I'm laying my cards on the table.
I am the man in the picture who saved Kafka.
However, it's just a new ability.
Maybe there's still hope for me...
Lu Li glanced at the three of them furtively, clinging to a sliver of hope.
March 7th: Stare—
Himeko: Stare—
Walter: Stare—
Lu Li: "..."
Okay, it's hopeless.
This is truly a situation that can't be resolved no matter what.
Fortunately, the system quickly rescued Lu Li from his misery.
Because the celestial canopy suspended in the universe once again burst forth with dazzling golden light.
Act Two begins.
Himeko and Welt exchanged a glance, tacitly suppressing their curiosity and looking away at the sky.
It's not that they gave up, but that they knew.
The screen in the sky will eventually provide answers to all the mysteries surrounding this "logistics specialist".
Lu Li breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.
The system saved him from dire straits... although it was also the system that had plunged him into dire straits.
However, while Himeko and the others' attention was diverted, he needed to think carefully about how to make an excuse...
March 7th: "Stare—"
Lu Li: "..."
Oh, I forgot there was one more.
……
As the deep strains of a cello filled the air, the sky brightened once more.
Unlike the previous scene, this scene seems to be set several years later.
The place where the two were located has been transformed into a cozy apartment filled with sunlight and a sense of everyday life.
Lu Li, dressed in casual home clothes and wearing an apron, was clumsily busy in the kitchen.
Clearly, he chose the wrong culinary talent tree and isn't very good at cooking.
Lu Li was looking at the recipe on the terminal while frantically chopping vegetables.
Every now and then, they would grimace as they were scalded by splashes of oil.
The purple-haired girl who once looked like a stray cat seems to have grown up a bit and is now quite graceful.
She was wearing a clean white dress and was curled up barefoot on the sofa, hugging a kitten-shaped pillow, watching an old black and white movie with great interest.
There were no more marks on her body, and her eyes had long lost their former wariness and ferocity.
Her demeanor has also developed a certain elegance.
However, compared to her elegant and strategic demeanor now, the Kafka in the picture exudes a more relaxed and contented air, enveloped in peace and happiness.
She would occasionally turn around and glance at Lu Li, who was "fighting" in the kitchen.
The corners of her mouth unconsciously turned up, revealing a sweet smile that she herself didn't even realize.
"Hey, Ali."
Kafka suddenly called out, her voice carrying a touch of girlish naiveté.
"What now?" Lu Li replied irritably from the kitchen, accompanied by the clattering of pots and pans.
"And how many times have I told you not to call me that?"
Kafka rolled over and lay face down on the sofa, looking at Lu Li with some confusion, "Why?"
"Uh, because... well, I know a 'famous idol' who likes to carry an umbrella, and that's his name."
Although it's the name of a character from a popular mobile game before I came here.
Kafka was even more puzzled upon hearing this.
What is an idol?
Having been with Lu Li for so long, she occasionally hears things that Lu Li doesn't understand.
But none of that matters.
In short.
"Ah Li, I'm hungry."
"I already said no... Sigh, never mind."
"Just stay put, it'll be over soon."
Lu Li complained as she swung the spatula, "Besides, ordering takeout is so much better. I don't know why you always make me cook."
He doesn't have that talent.
Kafka pouted, "But I want to eat what you make."
"Also, the main characters in the movie are all eating popcorn, and I want to eat some too."
Lu Li was somewhat speechless: "There's no popcorn, only carrots. Do you want some?"
"I won't eat it! Carrots are the worst-tasting thing in the world!"
The girl wrinkled her nose and protested loudly.
"Then there's nothing to eat." Lu Li's voice was firm and resolute.
Kafka pouted again in dissatisfaction.
suddenly.
As if she had thought of something, her eyes suddenly lit up.
Then Kafka, carrying a pillow, ran barefoot to the kitchen door and gently hugged Lu Li from behind.
"Ah Li~"
She pressed her face against Lu Li's back and pleaded in an cloyingly sweet tone, "I want to eat it, just a small bucket."
"OK?"
Lu Li paused in his chopping, his body stiffening noticeably.
The girl's warm breath wafted through the thin fabric, sending a tingling, itchy sensation through the skin of my neck.
"...Let go." Lu Li squeezed out the two words through gritted teeth, but the tips of his ears turned red.
"No, unless you say yes right now!"
Kafka clung to him like a koala, refusing to let go.
"If you don't let go, tonight's dinner will be a whole carrot feast."
Lu Li began to issue harsh threats.
Kafka, instead of loosening her grip, hugged him even tighter: "Then I'll eat you up too!"
Lu Li: "..."
What a tragedy! Who raised her to be like this?
Oh, it seems to be me.
That's fine.
