Chapter 25: We have to leave
After leaving her father to rest, Alice came out of the room.
[So warm tight~]
[What if... I do this~ her weak spot]
Enough!. Alice shut the Loid thoughts; she felt heat rising to her cheeks. Wasn’t night enough for them, Ahh! They were like horny rabbits.
And Lalica, how can you be so shameless!. She still can’t believe she lost her virginity in a threesome. And the third person was a woman at the age of her mother.
But whatever I say, shameless or not, she was definitely bold.
Though Alice didn’t know why she was feeling so annoyed.
Her motive for sticking with that stupid harem plan was because of her family, not because she liked him.
Now her family was safe, and now Loid also knew that they were getting his abilities, and he had a good relationship with her best friend Lalica, so he wouldn’t abandon them.
And it was not his personality that he could just walk away from those people he knew.
Like he was even worried about those kids he met on the street.
Though she still couldn’t decide if he was a good person or a bad person.
Maybe a good person with a little bit of a mental problem.
The problem was only then, when he was smashing zombies’ heads; he enjoyed it, and weirdly he wasn’t aware of that. After work was done, he totally didn’t think about how he was behaving earlier.
But maybe he wasn’t totally unaware either; that’s why he was hesitating to kill that guy, and worried about the value of a life in his heart, scared that killing would become normal for him.
She didn’t know what type of childhood he lived; he totally doesn’t think that. Other than his drunkard uncle and bullying in the school that came to his thoughts once or twice, and his parents died when he was little; other than that, she didn’t know anything.
Oh, yeah. His goal was to survive with a girlfriend and become a God-level being and kill the system that summoned him in this world, which he totally forgot. Seriously, Chuunibyou— no, can’t be called a chuunibyou case since he does have secret powers.
Anyway, with all this, he does need supportive affection. I guess. I can do some good deeds, nothing else. After all, I also get strength from him. Maybe I will get one or two more abilities in the future, like who knows... maybe I should ask Aunt Elizabeth.
She must know with her future-seeing ability.

Some time later, everyone sat at the dining table.
Loid was sitting between Elizabeth and Lalica.
"Here, eat more sweety’’ Elizabeth placed food on Loid’s plate.
"No, eat this first", Lalica said, bringing the spoon directly to his mouth
"But I’m full,’’ Loid said.
"What? That can’t be, or you don’t like my cooking’’ Elizabeth asked.
"No, it’s really delicious, but I can’t eat more. I’m not lying ’’ Loid said. Seriously, they were even competing in this. Though he liked it, but not anymore; if he ate more, his belly would be blown up. And everyone is watching; it’s embarrassing- what they would be thinking about them.
" Alright, I believed you, Sweety. I was just worried. You worked really, really hard at night"
"Was there a problem at night?" Amilia asked.
Only she, her husband, and Mira don’t know what hard work she was talking about.
"That’s a secret, right, sweety?" Elizabeth said gently, pinching Loid’s cheek.
"Y-yes"
Veronica’s eyes twisted, seeing that her mother was flirting with him without any shame. And the boy blushed like a newlywed wife.
She didn’t know why she felt that her mother was deliberately showing off. Burning her single ass.
"What do you want to announce that you said earlier?" Loid asked. Changing the topic of the night; that’s a private bedroom matter, can’t be shared with others.
"Oh, yeah, thanks for reminding me, sweety. We can’t stay here; we’re leaving this place," Elizabeth said.
"What! Why?" Veronica exclaimed.
"Sweetheart, because this whole area would be in lava in a year or so," Elizabeth said, looking at her daughter.
"Are you serious? Mum!" Veronica asked, frowning. Not liking the idea of leaving her hard-built base at all.
"So, where are we going? And when are we leaving?" Loid directly asked important questions. If there was going to be a problem in the future, then what was the point of arguing?
"That’s I don’t know, sweety, anywhere other than west," Elizabeth said,
"Why not in the west?" Loid asked.
"Well, that side is a monster; I don’t want to encounter it."
" What monster? What does it look like?" Veronica asked, a little excited.
"It looks scary," Elizabeth said, smiling at her daughter, her mood changs faster than anything.
"I want to see it", Veronica demanded.
"No", Elizabeth didn’t even need to give a single thought before rejecting her wish.
" Hump, crowed" Veronica crossed her arms and pouted but didn’t ask to go there again. She also knew it wasn’t like a movie, and it was dangerous, though who said she couldn’t show her dissatisfaction.
Amilia smiled, looking at the pampered white-haired girl around the age of her daughter sitting next to her. Who was now acting spoiled.
Then worry rose in her heart.
She wasn’t surprised by their talk; she had already heard yesterday, and her daughter also cleared many things. She knew Miss Elizabeth knew the future,
but she had never thought they had to leave this place so soon. they just came here and now again they had to walk into snowy winter, without knowing the exact destination; it was going to be hard. She looked at her daughter.
Alice looked back at her and smiled; she didn’t look much worried, or maybe just not showing it. Amilia smiled back.
Then looked at her husband, who was just listening quietly. She just want here family to be safe and those people who welcomed them like family, she didn’t want anything to happen to anyone.
"So we had three directions to pick," Lalica asked
" Yes, dear, ’’ Elizabeth said.
" Um, how would we know that we’re out of that lava range’’ Loid asked.
"I would know, sweety " Elizabeth said. "Until we’re out of the range, I’m going to have the same dream.’’
" Mum, it sounds really uncomfortable,’’ Veronica said, worried.
"Not really, sweetheart. It’s just a small dream once a day, so it’s fine.’’
