"That little thing doesn't need to be fed. You can just leave it aside and let it play by itself."
Shen Zhiyi propped her head up and reached out to poke the little Grim Reaper's head.
The little Grim Reaper seemed a bit uncomfortable from being poked, and actually let go of the little scythe he had been holding onto, and grabbed Shen Zhiyi's finger that was poking him.
Shen Zhiyi raised an eyebrow, but didn't pull her finger back.
The little Death stared blankly at her. Although Shen Zhiyi had told it last night, it still didn't understand why she didn't want it anymore.
Is it because it's not well-behaved enough?
But it's very obedient, so why don't you want it anymore?
Perhaps understanding what the little death god meant, Shen Zhiyi sighed: "It's not that I don't want you, it's that I want you to stay with Qi Jing in my place."
Shen Zhiyi pulled her finger out and patted the little Grim Reaper's head.
"Besides, it's not like I'm leaving and never coming back. You'll see me again, okay?"
The little Grim Reaper stared blankly at her, as if he understood, yet also as if he didn't.
Looking at the little death god's blank expression, Qi Jing wondered where his sister had gotten this little gadget. He was afraid that one stomp on it would kill him.
The little Grim Reaper rummaged around and picked up his little scythe again, holding it in his arms like a precious treasure.
"Do you think it would get angry with me if I took its little sickle?" Shen Zhiyi rubbed her hands together, looking like she was about to stir up trouble.
Then, Qi Jing rejected him without hesitation.
Qi Jing withdrew his hand from holding the little Grim Reaper, stood up and walked towards his room. "Sister, you're not a child anymore, why are you still bullying this little idiot?"
"The way you turned around and left is just like a scumbag."
"It's already mine, and you're still trying to bless it in front of me," Qi Jing accused on the spot. "It's getting late, sister, you should go and rest."
Then, Qi Jing went into the room.
"You little brat, you're trying to tell me what to do now?" Shen Zhiyi said with a laugh.
Then, the smile on his face gradually faded.
After sitting in the living room for a while, just as she was about to get up and go back to her room, the system's familiar mechanical voice rang in Shen Zhiyi's ears.
[Hi, Shen Zhiyi, this system has come to pick you up.]
The system called out excitedly.
Come on, are you all packed? If you are, let's go.
Shen Zhiyi picked up the little fox and walked towards the room, with the little cubs beside her following her.
"There's nothing to pack, we can just leave."
【Alright, then this system will teleport you directly.】
Shen Zhiyi put all the little ones into the pet space.
【Transmission begins.】
As the system began its countdown, Shen Zhiyi sat on the bed, quietly waiting for the system to send her back.
After the familiar white light ended, Shen Zhiyi opened her eyes again and found herself back on the nebula.
See? This system has been good to you, hasn't it? After you left, this system didn't scatter your nebula; it preserved it all perfectly well.
If the system had a human form, it would probably be standing there with its hands on its hips, begging for praise.
Shen Zhiyi circled around the nebula and found that it really was her original nebula. She originally thought that this nebula would dissipate after she left, but she didn't expect that the system would actually save her.
"Thank you, system."
Shen Zhiyi sat down on the nebula and touched the nebula under her bottom.
Looking at the familiar galaxy again, Shen Zhiyi had a different feeling than the first time.
The first time I felt very apprehensive, but now I just feel very calm.
【Well, there's something this system thinks you should know, but let me make it clear first: this system isn't trying to make things difficult for you; it's just how this system is configured.】
Shen Zhiyi suddenly had a bad feeling, and she felt that what the system was about to say was probably not a good thing.
"Go ahead."
[That's right, didn't you demolish your little villa before you left? So, people who return to Earth can no longer use the control panel; they can only look at it, and can only freely take items from their inventory.]
[Then if you want to rebuild a small villa, that might not be possible... you'll have to do it yourself...]
The mechanical sound from the system grew softer and softer.
Because it had already seen Shen Zhiyi's face growing increasingly dark.
"No, then why did you teleport me here? Why didn't you just send me to Nalan Zhao's place?" Shen Zhiyi rolled her eyes speechlessly.
Honestly, if this system dog had a physical form and was in front of her, she would definitely tear it apart.
"I was thinking you just wanted me to come and see the galaxy, but I didn't expect you to want me to stay here."
The system remained submissive and dared not utter a sound.
How could it dare to utter a sound? It had finally managed to coax the person back. If it said anything more, what if the person started making a fuss and wanted to go back?
"Um... um... this system can grant you a small privilege, allowing you to build a small villa, but..."
The system swallowed hard, seemingly hesitant to continue.
If Shen Zhiyi were still a player, the system could speak with more authority, but mainly, she isn't now, so it can't exert any authority as a system.
"Go ahead, I'm listening."
Shen Zhiyi remained expressionless, her heart completely unmoved.
[But after it's built, it's just a bare shell... but it's habitable.]
The system seemed a little unsure of itself when it said this.
“…Fine, at least I have a place to stay.” Shen Zhiyi compromised.
After all, she can't beat up the system right now, so let her think of a way to drag the system out and beat it up.
The system secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that Shen Zhiyi had compromised; otherwise, it really wouldn't have been able to do anything.
The system retrieved the materials from Shen Zhiyi's backpack and, under her supervision, quickly completed the construction of the small villa.
"...You're pretty fast! It's a waste of your talent that you're not working as a construction worker on Earth."
Shen Zhiyi sighed sincerely, calculating the time, and realized that less than twenty minutes had passed.
[Hehe, this system is twice as effective as one. You stay here for now, I'm leaving. There are other players in the galaxy.]
The system is about to run away; if it doesn't, it fears for its own life.
Shen Zhiyi nodded. "Okay, bye-bye."
The villa is still the same design as before, but it's currently a bare shell.
Shen Zhiyi opened the door and was about to go in when she was bumped by a fluffy creature that rushed up from behind.
"Squeak squeak squeak!!" Human! You're back!
The little pink-haired boy's excited barking rang in Shen Zhiyi's ears.
"Squeak squeak squeak!"
The little pink-haired dog's subsequent series of squeaking sounds were simply expressions of happiness and had no real meaning.
Shen Zhiyi steadied herself, turned around helplessly and picked up the little pink-haired boy. "Little brat, watch where you're going! You almost knocked me over."
The little pink-haired boy stopped squeaking and just stared at her blankly.
