Really? I'm fighting the Dark Emperor.

Chapter 248 Love will only hinder the realization of ideals

"Pure gold! Of course it's pure gold! No one can resist something made of pure gold!"

Because of the distance, Rui Bu Si didn't hear Jimmy's "Never mind" at the end.

Jimmy wasn't surprised by the answer: "The Herp family is very famous, Agnes would never be short of money."

Rui Bu Si shook her index finger, looking at her with an "you don't understand" expression: "Not lacking doesn't mean you don't like it."

In the end, Jimmy decided to let Yu Feng figure it out himself, since roommates are usually more familiar with each other.

Although their time as roommates was short, the two of them didn't spend much time together.

"Gift……"

Staring at the fish swaying and spinning in Jimmy's hand, Yu Feng said this and then fell silent.

Rui Bu Si propped her head up and watched the firelight as she jumped around: "Does grilled fish need to keep spinning around like this?"

How would he know? He's never grilled fish before: "Turning it more is better than not turning it at all and burning it."

"Makes sense."

The Flame King in the distance finally gave up on the idea of ​​washing the fishy smell off his hands with the pond water and walked towards them.

His sleeves were rolled up high, and his hands were awkwardly placed at his sides, far away from his clothes.

It was obvious that he disliked it.

Agnes wants her mom and dad.

"Huh?" Three voices exclaimed in unison in surprise.

"What are you talking about? A welcome party for new students?"

Jimmy made room for Flame King: "It's a birthday present for her."

The Flame King seemed to realize something: "So we need to find people to play her parents?"

As if she had made up her mind, Rui Bu Si's face was somber: "I can reluctantly play her mother."

"I'll get scolded." Who's really putting on this act despite the difficulties...?

Rain and Wind: "Fish".

Amidst the distractions, Jimmy suddenly realized he had forgotten to flip the fish.

"It's burnt." Rui Bu Si shifted her head to the other side to prop it up.

“You added too many branches.” Jimmy looked at it carefully for a moment. “I think it’s edible.”

“Don’t worry about getting diarrhea,” Ribusi said, pulling out a few small bottles of potions. “I brought some medicine with me.”

Jimmy complained, "Aren't you being a little too distrustful of us?"

The Flame King brought the topic back to the main point: "So what should we give Agnes? Will there be enough time?"

Rui Bu Si: "Don't worry, Xiao Fu Die will definitely get everyone to do it together."

Jimmy: "But as Xiaofeng's roommate, shouldn't we at least give her something separately?"

Flame King: "None of us have ever met Agnes's parents. What she lacks, we cannot provide."

Jimmy: "You need to give her the feeling of parents. What does it feel like to be a parent?"

Rui Bu Si: "I don't know, no."

Jimmy: "What a coincidence, I don't have any either."

The four of them could only scrape together half a parent.

After the grilled fish was finished, we faced a problem that none of us had considered.

"What should we do with the remaining branches?" We can't just take them back; they'll just float in the pond if we throw them in.

“Simple,” Flame King raised his hand, the lingering fishy smell making him frown. “Burn it all away with fire.”

“There’s wind, it could easily spread to other places.” Rui Busi reached out to stop it, but before the flames could touch her, a bright protective shield appeared out of thin air.

The Flame King quickly withdrew his magic, startled and momentarily confused: "This is..."

"This is the self-criticism I'm destined to write tonight." His gaze silently drifted to the sky, and nonexistent tears of regret flowed from his heart. "Remember to take a detour, climb back through the window, don't take the main road."

These words were clearly directed at Flame King and Jimmy.

Jimmy nodded knowingly, expressing deep sympathy: "Sigh, that's the price of love."

He patted Yu Feng on the shoulder: "Little Feng Feng, see? Falling in love will turn you into this. You must never fall in love, you know? Our ideal is to travel the entire universe. Falling in love will only hinder us from achieving our ideal!"

Rui Busi kicked him: "Hurry up, do you want to write a self-criticism too?"

“Miya Star can’t let me write,” but Principal Os can. Jimmy paused, “Forget it, he’s too smart, and he’s a cute knight. He’s deeply trusted by Principal Os. I’m worried he’ll whisper in his ear.”

The Flame King was silent for a few seconds: "That word isn't used like that."

"That's about right. Let's hurry up and go," she said, quickly packing what she could. "Little Fengfeng, I can't go back with you. Don't get lost on your own."

"Will not."

Soon, only Ruibusi was left sitting there, facing the remaining ashes and unburnt branches that were difficult to deal with.

The branches weren't completely burned, but... seeing Mi Yaxing's pace slow down from its initial eagerness, well, she felt like she was doomed.

Agnes woke up in the middle of the night, sitting on the bed panting. The afterglow of the nightmare still lingered in her mind. The cool breeze of the present world blew in from the window, and that empty feeling finally lessened a bit.

The wind outside the window...?

"Isn't the window closed?"

Light streamed in through the gap in the curtains, and she looked to the side, but her roommate seemed to be gone.

It seemed like they hadn't seen each other since they parted ways during the day. When she returned to her dorm that night, Yu Feng, unusually, wasn't eating but sleeping... Was it because of what she said during the day?

She took several deep breaths, closed her eyes, and rubbed her head. She heard faint noises around her, and instinctively looked up at the window.

What's outside?

Cautiously approaching the window, she gathered the scroll in her hand and suddenly flung open the curtains: "Galloping..."

The person outside the window stared blankly with their hands raised.

Agnes saw her roommate, who should have been in bed, with a bunch of things her roommate had brought back.

"This is so late at night..."

barbecue?

At school?

Grove?

Isn't this against school rules?

No, no, no, the school rules don't seem to explicitly prohibit students from barbecuing in the woods at night, but...

While he was thinking about something, he casually took the thing that Yu Feng handed him.

Since we've already accepted it, it wouldn't be good to throw it back.

The two of them remained silent for a long time before handing it over.

Until only one person remained outside the window.

"Aren't you...coming in?"

Are you bothered by what she said during the day and don't want to go back to the dorm? But where can you sleep at night?

"During the daytime..."

"You ate too much."

Yu Feng burped, his expression remaining largely unchanged, but Agnes inexplicably sensed a hint of grievance.

"I can't flip it."
