"Go back, Qi Wu."
"Little Linlin, my foot hurts so much."
"I've checked, it's fine, don't worry. It's just a little swollen because it was wrapped too tightly. I'll massage it for you."
"Oh, really! That's great. Is it better to have pain, or a little pain?"
"Don't go too far."
Riding on a floating raft.
Lorraine carefully massaged Qi Wu's slightly red and swollen right ankle. Qi Wu enjoyed this meticulous care and was very happy.
We are still some distance from drifting back to shore.
While taking care of Qi Wu, Lorraine seemed to be deep in thought.
Qi Wu, who had been paying attention to him, asked curiously.
"Little Linlin, what are you thinking about?"
"Oh, I was thinking about that monster from earlier..."
"Didn't you blow it all up? Damn it, if I hadn't kept my transformation device in my backpack, I would have blasted the entire trench to smithereens the next time I encountered one of these."
Qi Wu complained indignantly.
Lorraine shook her head.
"At the time, there wasn't time to think too much. Now, looking back, what exactly was that monster? Generally speaking, only giant squid or similar creatures living in the deep sea can have that size, but the speed and strength that monster possessed were not like those of a normal creature at all."
"Could it be a demon?"
"So here's the question: why would monsters appear in a place like this?"
"Qi Wu doesn't know."
"Whether it was generated naturally or deliberately released by someone, we have no idea."
"It must have been created by a spawn. If it were created by humans, who could create such a powerful monster? Queen Elune has been reduced to barely holding on to her last star by us. No matter how powerful she is, she couldn't possibly make a comeback in such a short time, could she?"
"Hmm, it shouldn't be King Elune's doing. She was severely injured in the Battle of Night Palace, her strength was greatly reduced, less than one-tenth of what it used to be, she's no longer a match for us. Besides... where could she possibly hide in this vast ocean?"
"Since you've already blown it up, these things don't really matter anymore, right?"
Qi Wu made an optimistic guess.
Lorraine wished it were so too. Perhaps it was just his habit of being paranoid, always thinking the worst, always feeling that there might be some more powerful being instigating these monsters to attack them.
There is no evidence against Corolin.
There is no way to verify this.
"Sigh... I hope you're right."
"Haha, don't be scared, Linlin. When we get back to the beach, I'll retrieve the transformation device and see who dares to mess with you."
"Don't be silly, the magical girls will come running over as soon as you transform."
"Speaking of which, what about magical girls?"
"Oh, well... they have other things to do, we don't need to worry about it."
"Okay, okay. Anyway, we don't care about magical girls. As long as Linlin is by our side, that's enough."
"It's a good thing I came along this time, otherwise you would have been really done for."
Lorraine, speechless, tapped the other person's head with a chopstick.
Qi Wu winced in pain and cried out in pain.
"To thank Linlin for saving my life, let's give each other a kiss~"
"Hello!"
Using her hand to stop Qi Wu from getting closer, Lorraine reminded her, "Before that, you should find some clothes to wear. It's not proper for you to keep looking like this."
"It's okay."
"It's nothing, it's all right."
"Anyway, Linlin definitely prefers this look to me, right?"
"Ahem! Don't talk nonsense."
"dislike?"
"This has nothing to do with whether you like it or not."
"Haha, she's definitely shy."
"Don't come any closer."
"Hey, how about we do something fun secretly when everyone's not around?"
"don't want."
"Oh, 'no' means 'yes,' I understand!"
"No...no...hey! What are you doing, Qi Wu? Are you crazy? Stop it!"
Just as the two were fiercely fighting.
The distant beach is getting closer and closer.
Lorraine quickly restrained the restless Qi Wu and reminded her, "No, if we go straight there like this, we'll definitely be surrounded and tortured later."
"Should we tell everyone about the monsters?"
"Let's keep it a secret for now. It's a rare opportunity for everyone to get together and enjoy a happy beach vacation. Let's not cause any trouble or make everyone worry."
"Is this alright?"
"I would advise everyone not to leave the beach to go diving. As long as we are on the beach, even if enemies appear, we are all together and have nothing to fear."
"Okay, then I'll listen to Linlin, hehe."
"By the way, what about your swimsuit?"
"I don't know, Linlin, you decide what to do."
“I don’t have any decent women’s swimsuits stored in my ring. How about this, there’s a grove of trees over there. Let’s go around to the beach and land there. I’ll make one for you in the grove.”
"Oh, really?"
Qi Wu never expected that the other party had such abilities.
The look in his eyes as he looked at Lorraine was full of admiration.
Lorraine laughed.
"It's just a makeshift swimsuit made from whatever materials I have on hand. Consider it a temporary solution. I'll go back to the swimsuit section in the hotel and buy you a new one later."
