The only problem is the two remaining corpses.

The funeral home in this city is quite far from her home.

Feng Ran found it troublesome, so she laid out plastic bags on a small patch of ground in her space beforehand and threw all the trash directly onto the plastic bags. She planned to throw it away outside at a later time.

I'm so sleepy tonight. Now I can finally sleep peacefully.

...

"Oh no... where's the body!"

Having nothing to do after breakfast, Feng Ran decided to check out her spatial dimension. The corpse she had thrown away yesterday was gone!

"Good fortune? Good fortune?"

"I was called. I ate it." Hearing a voice behind her, Feng Ran turned around. A young man in his early twenties appeared behind her, his voice even more mature than before.

"auspicious?"

"What else?"

"You—you...how could you eat people?!"

"And you're one to talk! What did you put underneath the corpse when you threw it away? It made it so hard for me to absorb it."

"Wait a minute! How come you're an adult now?!"

"I was able to transform into human form all along. If that woman hadn't neglected farming all the time, I wouldn't be in such a sorry state."

"...Then you're really unlucky."

"Um."

The boy appeared to be about her age, but had rosy lips and white teeth. He was quite handsome, a head taller than her, and wore an ancient-style grey robe with a black outer garment. His hair, reaching his waist, was simply tied up with a hairpin.

"How many years have you lived? And this outfit..."

"I can't remember, I can't remember... I've outlived quite a few of them just from being a master."

It really is a thousand-year-old tortoise...

"Can you leave this space?"

"Sure. But I can't leave for long. This is my physical body and the source of my power. By the way, those two corpses from last night were pretty good. I can just throw them into the land in my spatial storage whenever I have them."

I will resolve and absorb it myself.

"After eating two corpses, I can transform into human form. Not bad. Excellent."
