"And what's more, I've already bought a house! I paid for it all myself in full."
Coco stood with her hands on her hips, looking proud.
"Isn't that amazing? The soldiers you trained have become truly outstanding!"
"Aren't you... very proud?"
"Instructor Qin...I want to hear you praise me..."
Tick-tock, tick-tock...
Large tears streamed down Coco's cheeks and fell to the ground.
She covered her face and sobbed softly, tears streaming down her face.
"Instructor Qin... I'm so sad. Sister Hera is a mutant, and Han Xiaoxiao has broken off all ties with me... My dad only knows how to ask me for money, and many of my teammates have died..."
"I, I... Waaah... I don't want to be a Night Star anymore..."
"Now that I'm the captain of our team, taking care of others is really tiring..."
"I long to lean on someone, but... I'm all alone now..."
Coco's voice trembled violently, and her eyes were red from crying.
"Hmm? Hehe..."
Liu An suddenly came over out of curiosity, and when he saw Coco crying, he hugged her tightly and rubbed his head against her.
"Hey, hey, hey! Sister Liu An, Sister Liu An!"
Liu An hugged Coco like a sloth, almost causing Coco to fall over.
"Alright, alright, stop fooling around."
Coco smiled helplessly, took it off her body, and her tears stopped flowing without her realizing it.
She wiped her eyes and sighed, "Really, I cried again this year when I visited the graves. I cry every year when I visit the graves."
Coco looked at Qin Gucheng's tombstone and scratched her head apologetically, "Sorry, Instructor Qin, I cried in front of you again. I hope you don't find me annoying."
She chuckled twice, then glanced at the time and stood up.
"Alright, it's getting late. I think my application to the higher-ups has been approved by now."
At this point, Coco suddenly became excited, "Hehe, I wonder if they'll allow me to retire. When I retire, I'm definitely going to sleep in every day! And eat all kinds of delicious food!"
Hehehe! Hehe!
Liu An hugged Coco and grinned foolishly, while Coco affectionately patted his back.
"Alright, Instructor Qin, we're off now. See you tomorrow!"
Coco took one last reluctant look at the tombstone, waved goodbye, and then left the martyrs' cemetery with Liu An.
"Let's go, Sister Liu An, let's go home!"
As soon as she stepped out of the cemetery gate, Coco couldn't wait to pull out a Rubik's Cube made of pure metal.
With a thought, the palm-sized metal Rubik's Cube floated into the air.
The 26 metal cubes that make up the Rubik's Cube then dispersed, leaving only the central axis in Coco's palm.
One of the cubes landed at his feet and slowly began to expand in length and width, turning into a metal platform of about one square meter in the blink of an eye.
"Let's go, Sister Liu An, be careful. You almost fell last time, it scared me half to death."
As Coco spoke, she carefully pulled Liu An onto the metal platform.
As the metal platform slowly rose, the other dozen or so metal cubes quickly surrounded it, rapidly extending to form several walls that firmly protected the two of them.
"Alright, let's go!"
With a whoosh, the 'spaceship' made of metal cubes streaked through the air at great speed, heading towards Coco's home.
I just entered Nanchuan City B, near my home.
Coco noticed that a man in black was squatting at her door with a letter in his hand.
Coco became incredibly excited and immediately increased her speed to the maximum, rushing towards the man in black.
Then it suddenly stopped in front of the man in black.
The strong wind made the man in black's clothes flutter loudly, but his expression remained calm throughout.
The cube slowly shrank, and Coco pulled Liu An down from it. Then the cube reformed into a Rubik's Cube and was put into Coco's pocket.
"Hello, hello! Are you here to deliver my mail?"
Coco looked at the man in black with excitement, rubbing her hands together excitedly.
The man in black looked Coco up and down, then stood up and handed the letter to her.
"That's right, this is a notice issued to you by your superiors."
"Yay, that's great, thank you!"
Coco took the letter, but was a little stunned by its thickness.
Why are there so many?
The man in black merely glanced at Coco without replying.
This made Coco somewhat unhappy.
"What kind of attitude is that...?"
She muttered something under her breath, then stopped worrying and opened the envelope to take a look.
"Come on, let me see how much your pension is..."
When Coco saw the large characters "Promoted to Gravekeeper" above, she froze instantly.
She rubbed her eyes and looked at it again.
[Promoted to Gravekeeper]
"No, I'm applying for retirement, not a promotion! Besides, I don't even know what a gravedigger is!"
The man in black shrugged. "I was just delivering a letter; I have no idea what's inside."
Coco's lips twitched, but she forced herself to calm down and continued reading the other letters.
But the more she looked, the colder her heart became.
This content simply explains that Cocoa's abilities are extremely suitable for Gravekeepers and introduces what Gravekeepers are used for.
The remaining majority of the information focused on the various advantages of becoming a gravedigger, including benefits and salary.
This includes, but is not limited to, a monthly salary of 100,000, post-mortem insurance of 20 million, and various benefits such as exemption from medical and travel expenses for oneself, one's descendants, or even family members in society.
But Coco had absolutely no interest in any of that. She already had millions in savings in her account, enough for her to live a carefree life. She had no desire to be a gravedigger.
"Um... can I not take the job?"
The man in black shook his head mercilessly.
"Don't ask me, I'm just a messenger, but as is customary, once you're chosen, you have to go whether you want to or not."
"Ah, how could this happen..." Coco looked like she was about to cry, but the man in black turned and walked away without a second thought.
"Sigh, is there really no way we can negotiate any further? I've only just arrived at 'Ten Thousand Stars,' and I can't even beat people of the same realm yet..."
Coco tried to struggle a little more, but the other person disappeared in a flash.
"This, this... Wow—! Bullying honest people!"
Coco stood there helplessly, holding the report, and couldn't hold back her tears.
...
"Welcome to this news broadcast. Recently, a video of aliens invading the Night Starers headquarters in Atan has gone viral on the internet."
"In the video, the disheveled deputy commander of Atan is speaking to the camera about a major disaster caused by an alien invasion."
"In this disaster, this mutant not only slaughtered the garrison squad in City A of District B, but also the captain and vice-captain of the [Godslayer] squad were killed by suspected members of the Light God Society!"
"According to the deputy commander's account in the video, we know that the invaded Fallen God Group had notified Night Star that the Five Calamities would come to their company and strongly requested that the God Destroyer Squad be dispatched."
