After helping ALulu bathe, Li Ang walked out of the room and closed the door.

The Power God Bloodline is essentially unafraid of any battle or the burden of labor, although she herself repeatedly stressed amid gentle whispers that this only happens when faced with someone she cares about.

"Ah."

"Ah."

After closing the door, he turned around and made eye contact with Meimei.

It wouldn’t be too awkward if anyone else caught him, but why did it have to be this little girl?

Uh, the little girl is just her outward appearance; mentally, she’s considered an adult... though her personality is nothing like one and she seems more like a spoiled child.

Coincidentally, Li Ang noticed the white-haired girl’s nostrils twitch a bit.

She is quite knowledgeable, although it’s unclear if she knows about the Horned Race’s special constitution; yet among the Nebis people, it’s rare to have had no peculiar associations regarding it.

"You, you, you, you, you, you, what shameless thing are you doing!"

Alright, she knows.

Meimei seemed even more embarrassed than Li Ang, the one caught, and immediately turned and ran away.

But after a few steps, the girl stopped, turned her head, and pouted at him. Her enchanting face tinged with bashfulness was quite charming.

"I came to find you for something."

"What is it?"

"Come with me."

Meimei turned and walked away, but after a few steps, as if she remembered something, she called out with a blush: "Don’t get any funny ideas! Don’t think I’m shameless like your crew members!"

"I didn’t say anything."

Li Ang looked at her helplessly.

Meimei decided not to pursue this topic further, but after a few steps, she turned back reddened face, covering her behind with her hand.

"No peeking."

"First of all, I wasn’t looking, and secondly, if you hadn’t mentioned it, who would randomly look? It was you who suddenly made the atmosphere weird."

"Ah, ah, ah! Anyway! You villain! You should be the scourge that destroys the world!"

"What did I do to deserve being branded as someone who would destroy the world?" 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

"If you weren’t of such stature, I really couldn’t accept it. If not for having the ability to corrupt people’s hearts, how could you turn Meluna around your finger?"

"Meluna, did I fool her?"

Li Ang let out a long sigh.

If it’s because she came due to Meluna, it makes sense.

Meimei didn’t want to chat with Li Ang in the rest area, fearing they’d run into others easily. She chose a spot on the Ancient Ship that served as a viewing platform, equipped with a few chairs, likely discovered accidentally while wandering around outside.

The young girl sat in a chair, and Li Ang sat opposite, finding this spot indeed pleasant; it offered a view of the lower regions of the Ancient Ship and many paths of the Shadow Factory. If one were a worker’s family member, perhaps they could see their loved ones at work outside.

"So, what do you want to say?"

"It’s about Meluna."

"Specifically?"

Seeing Li Ang’s indifferent attitude towards what she had to say, Meimei seemed to sense he no longer cared much about Meluna, causing her expression to become somewhat complex.

She pondered her words, asked, "Have you ever considered how to deal with your relationship with Meluna?"

"I have thought about it; since she’s missing, we shouldn’t meet again, no matter where she goes, as long as she stays far away from me, it’s good." Li Ang opened his hands and said.

"That’s before seeing her again, right? I mean now, she follows you all the time and affects the shameful things you and your crew do."

"Of course, I’d want her to go far away; this isn’t something I want, but can’t do. You’ve seen it too." Li Ang scratched his rear head.

"Then, do you still have any remaining feelings for her? Even a little?"

Meimei gestured with her hand to show "a tiny bit".

"What are you trying to say?"

Li Ang asked with a tone devoid of emotion.

"Actually... Although I myself distinguish between me and her when speaking, in essence, she and I are the same person."

"There’s quite a big difference."

"Of course, I think so too, but I can also assure you that in some aspects, we are still the same. Because of this relationship, I can better grasp some of her thoughts."

"I recall you saying countless times you cannot understand her before," Li Ang commented.

"That’s true, yeah, there were times of being driven crazy by her strange logic too, but still traces can be found."

Meimei showed helplessness, her slender fingers twirling the white strands of hair with a glazed sheen, saying: "Meimei is our childhood nickname; this name can also be used for her; the reason you call me so is because Grandpa Otto always did, as the parents here hadn’t had time to formally name me.

"But back in my Nebis, I gave myself a name—can you guess what it is?"

Li Ang looked at the white-haired young girl: "Where would I start guessing from? But since you’re asking, must you be trying to say you’re also called Meluna."

"That’s right, exactly."

The white-haired "childhood Meluna" crossed her arms: "Do you know where this name came from?"

"I’m all ears."

Meimei truly had something to say, and Li Ang was interested in the origins of the name "Meluna," so he didn’t want to upset her intentions and indicated for her to continue.

"When very young, mom and dad told me a fairy tale about the Moon Country."

Meimei briefly summarized the content of this tale.

Long, long ago, there was an island with perpetual night, named the Moon Country. On this island, there was a child, small and often bullied by other children, but he had a Talent in Magic Power, and his parents cherished him.

One day, the child curiously asked his parents: why does our home lack sunlight? The parents explained to him that near our island exists a Magical Disaster; it drives away daylight, leaving us living in endless night.
