Again?

Parker struggled to separate the visions of his two eyes, each looking in opposite directions, confronting two pairs of eyes simultaneously.

Dun dun dun...

In the darkness, countless eyes appeared, all staring at Parker, with a teasing expression, as if overlooking a prey in its death throes.

The black mist around Parker suddenly intensified, engulfing him in an instant.

Loud noises erupted from the alley, but five minutes later, it was back to silence, as if nothing had happened.

Those with reduced willpower like Parker, who ended up getting attacked; those like the Negotiation Master, who were chased by monsters under someone's control; and those risking it all, clashing with local forces...

Tonight, Sigef City is particularly chaotic, yet number 26 Garden Street remains unaffected.

Using the money he got from True Self, Wu Chang went shopping after work, filling the entire refrigerator with fresh vegetables and fruits.

It may sound trivial, but in Sigef City, people can afford refrigerators but can't afford food, which is quite normal.

In the afternoon, he overheard two female teachers discussing refrigerator ornaments and casually asked, only to realize that those so-called ornaments aim to stuff the fridge as much as possible, making it look less empty.

In any case, with enough ingredients, Wu Chang could fully showcase his culinary skills, successfully winning over Amber's stomach.

To capture her heart, one must first capture her stomach; this saying applies beyond couples.

But when Amber is smitten by his pink apron, can she really not increase her approval?

However, reality slightly deviates from expectations. Amber devours the meal at the table but forgets about him after wiping her mouth. At bedtime, she retreats to the attic alone, and Wu Chang can't even check on her.

He shook his head, not enough approval; it seems he needs more practice.

At night, Wu Chang and Erin lay on the double bed in the master bedroom, and the atmosphere felt off.

Unlike the previous night, the suppressive attribute further lifted in Wu Chang, making him different from an ordinary person who easily feels tired.

With his mind awake, more thoughts came to him.

For instance, he was now thinking about how to throw the Light of Steadfastness off the bed while Erin wasn't paying attention.

Wu Chang transformed his right hand into a tiny person, using his index and middle fingers as legs, walking all the way to the Light of Steadfastness, lifting his index finger to cross it, testing back and forth at the boundary.

Seeing Erin with her back turned and no clear indication, the tiny right hand crossed the boundary and walked towards Erin's shoulder.

He meant no harm, just a little cold at night, and the two of them together would be warmer.

Just as the tiny right hand was about to touch Erin, Wu Chang noticed a wisp of black mist appearing beside him.

His gaze turned to the window, only to see a pickup truck with failed brakes crash into the roadside utility pole.

The pole, already cracked, broke in half, with the wires flying like a whip, lashing towards the bedroom.

Wu Chang clicked his tongue, imitating Death, forced accidental death, huh.

If it were yesterday, he would have needed to dodge, but today, this little trick is useless against him.

With a wave of his hand, he condensed a wall outside the window using Condensing Void into Reality, effortlessly blocking the lashing wires.

Noticing the black mist on him dissipate, he retracted his Condensing Void into Reality ability, curling his lips.

Is that it?

Turning back, he realized his right hand already retreated to his side.

No worries, where there's a first, there's a second.

He once again controlled the tiny right hand to move towards Erin, holding his breath, and just as the right hand was about to wrap around Erin's shoulder, he suddenly noticed an extra person at the head of the bed.

He turned his head, discovering Amber in plain white pajamas, hair down, staring straight at him from the bed's head.

Wu Chang's tiny right hand seemed frozen by the Body Stabilization Technique. He whispered:

"It's so late, not sleeping, class tomorrow or not?"

Amber replied in a chilling tone: "Not tired."

Wu Chang: "Not tired is good, then go study. I looked at your grades, for your age to score so little, you should be losing sleep."

Amber continued staring expressionlessly at Wu Chang, saying: "Won't."

Wu Chang furrowed his brow, just about to say something, when suddenly the sleeping Erin on the bed jumped up, hugged a bewildered Amber, and led her to the study.

"No worries, I will, I'll tutor you."

Wu Chang remained frozen in the tiny right hand's probing posture, alone on the bed.

Wait a minute, Erin teacher, I need tutoring too.

Full of resentment, he sat up and walked to the study, peeking through the door gap, seeing Erin genuinely pulling out textbooks, preparing to teach Amber reading.

No kidding, Erin really knows how.

Before integrating into Blue Star's civilization, Erin studied an entire set of Xia Country's high school textbooks. Even the elementary level isn't a challenge for Erin.

Wu Chang heated two cups of milk, placed them on the study desk side.

Before leaving, he made a face at Amber behind Erin's back, gleefully mouthing;

"If you're not sleeping, then just stay awake."

Leaving the study, Wu Chang noticed light coming from the attic direction, and its door was left open.

The attic was Amber's "private territory," no one was allowed to enter. It was always thoroughly closed and locked when she left.

This time, she hadn't even closed the door before leaving the attic, and immediately came to his and Erin's bedroom.

Wu Chang thought of the Curse Mark that appeared on his body, glancing towards the study.

Did Amber sense something and was worried about them?
