Everything in this world is new to her, and she will observe everything with the greatest curiosity.
How did Lycorina lead all of humanity through the swollen lands of her past life to the very end?
Perhaps it's because she can quickly change her colors?
[Private] Hero of Thorns: Mr. An'i... um, it's his birthday... can we meet later?
Miru could directly use the chat group to send private messages later, seemingly not wanting Lycorina to know.
After all, it was prepared for An Yi's birthday, so it wouldn't be good for others to know.
[Private] Sword Hero: Onward.
At the dinner, Layton also gave him a little trinket he had bought during his travels.
Knowing that An Yi had everything she needed, they chose to give her some things they thought were fun.
Lycorina's birthday present was this dinner party; among the Saintess Squad, only Miluko hadn't given a gift yet.
An Yi felt a mixture of anticipation and curiosity.
Although An Yi knew that Miluko would definitely be well-prepared given her personality, she really couldn't guess what the other party would give her.
[Private] Hero of the Thorns: Give me some time, it'll be quick, but if Mr. An'i is sleepy, I...
[Private] Sword Hero: I won't sleep, I'll wait for you.
[Private] Hero of the Thorns: Hmm, okay.
Upon hearing An Yi's words, Milu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Because An Yi was busy from morning till night, and only finished yesterday. If it were Lycorina, she would have collapsed onto the bed and "died" the moment she got back to her room.
Milu could think that An Yi was so tired today, she probably needed to rest well when she got back.
If it were the old her, she would definitely have thought, "Maybe I shouldn't bother him at all."
but……
The things she prepared were also very important, and if she didn't act impulsively this time, she would miss out completely.
Moreover, An Yi is someone who allows her to be willful.
Unlike Elef, Aria, and Elsa, she already had the answer in her heart.
When I asked Lycorina a question in the chat group, I was just asking on behalf of the three of them.
She also knew that even if she was a little more willful, An Yi wouldn't find her troublesome or angry.
An Yi is someone you can trust and rely on.
She will not feel confused or uneasy about this.
The only thing that made her uneasy was whether she was adequately prepared.
Not long after, An Yi returned to her room.
Lycorina barely spoke a word the whole way, probably because she was tired. They said goodbye at a corner somewhere and went back to their respective rooms.
Miluko disappeared halfway through the journey, heading to a certain part of the city to make preparations.
Back in her room, An Yi didn't lie down to rest. Instead, thinking about going out with Mi Lu Ke, she decided to change her clothes and take a shower first.
The brave warrior doesn't need to take a bath and won't get too dirty, but he will naturally feel more refreshed after taking a bath.
It's already past midnight, so An Yi's birthday has already passed rather hastily today.
There was no grand birthday banquet, but it was still the grandest birthday banquet ever, as if the entire city and half of the heroes were celebrating for him.
However, just like other people whose birthdays coincide with holidays, their birthdays are "casually" passed by, which is actually a little sad to think about.
Of course, An Yi wouldn't. He didn't think there was anything to celebrate about his birthday.
In his past life, his birthday meant the death of his entire family on the same day, marking the beginning of his revenge.
Even in this life, when he saved his entire family on his eighteenth birthday, he simply felt that the day was worth celebrating, not the day he was born.
Being "casually" overlooked is probably a good thing for him.
However, he was very happy to receive everyone's gifts and blessings.
Even if it doesn't show on your face.
"One year..."
A year has passed since the demons were defeated, and a year has passed since he became a hero.
An Yi was filled with emotion as she thought about how the future she knew had undergone earth-shattering changes.
Whether it's the early appearance of the Hero Alliance or the accelerated progress in defeating the demons.
Even the possibility of unexpected changes in the demon race and the appearance of the Little Demon King make the future unpredictable.
The appearance of the little devil, in particular, and the fact that the other party did not give a big gift on her birthday, directly shattered the "script" in An Yi's hands.
Tear it to shreds.
Everything will develop at a very rapid pace from now on.
This war will likely become unprecedentedly fierce.
In the past, the heroes were almost helpless in the face of disaster, and a large part of human territory could not be saved.
The result of abandoning territory is that humans are basically unable to confront the demons head-on and can only make concessions step by step.
In this life, choosing to defend the territory means that the heroes must rely on the strategy decided yesterday and begin to fight the demons head-on.
Standing before humanity, they became a "disaster" for the demon race!
However, with the assistance of Nightmare, An'i believes that the hero in this life will not suffer the same terrible death rate as the hero in the previous life.
Know thyself, ever-victorious.
The heroes who obtained information about the demon race through the [Nightmare] will not suffer heavy casualties so easily.
[Private] Hero of the Thorns: Alright... Alright, Mr. An'i, please come here. The address is—
[Private] Sword Hero: Okay.
Chapter 41 Miluko's Gift (4k)
Instead of using her exceptional agility to keep the appointment, An Yi donned the [Pseudo-Demon Lord Veil] and strolled leisurely through the city.
Although the banquet was drawing to a close without any set schedule, the streets remained brightly lit, making it feel like daytime no matter where you went.
Even in alleys that should be pitch black on ordinary days, you can find the exit of the street under the illumination of the light.
He wasn't in a hurry; he wasn't in a rush to keep his appointment, nor was he in a rush to go back to sleep.
Rather, if you're going to keep an appointment but are in a hurry to go to sleep, isn't that incredibly rude to the other party?
Not rushing to the agreed location was also to give Milu more time to prepare.
All day today, Miluko was actually standing on the high platform and couldn't do anything else.
Given such a short wait, the other party must have been in a hurry to prepare, right?
Milu is a very demanding person, and if there are any loopholes or flaws in the arrangements in such a short time, it would probably make the other party very frustrated.
The other person is always anxious and insecure, which actually stems from her excessively high expectations of herself.
Simply put;
Perfectionism.
I always feel like I'm not doing enough, which is why I always overthink things.
But for her, as the "Hero of Thorns," this perfectionism has actually made her who she is.
Be cautious, be cautious, and be even more cautious.
We weren't prepared enough, and we weren't prepared well enough.
Is there anything else that hasn't been considered thoroughly? Three
She subconsciously thinks about these things, which ironically allows her to gather more information.
Even after becoming a hero, this psychological state worsened, showing no improvement whatsoever. (5)
She felt that because she was not perfect, people were killed or injured.
If I had done better, those mistakes wouldn't have happened.
Becoming a hero made her stronger, but it also brought greater pressure.
I've become stronger, so I can do more things.
Even though An Yi understood this, he didn't think that letting the other person step out of "perfectionism" would be a good thing for Miluko.
If you ask her to abandon her "perfectionism," then if she makes a single oversight that is directly or indirectly related to her, she will inevitably revert to her old ways and pursue an even more perfect version of herself next time.
Although in life, one should be prepared to say things before speaking if one is not good at speaking, and be prepared to do things before doing them if one is not good at doing them.
But fighting the demons is fighting the demons, not living a leisurely life.
If Milu wants to make changes, that's a path she has to explore herself.
An Yi could only give her a push in the matter of defeating the demons; he didn't think he could do anything about Milu's self-exploration.
[Private] Sword Hero: I'm almost there.
[Private] Hero of the Thorns: Okay.
With a simple response, Annie continued on her way.
Based on his understanding of the city, it seems that the other party chose one of the few restaurants that offered a panoramic view of the city at night.
As the "Hero of the Thorns," getting a reservation at the best restaurants in these establishments is just a matter of a word.
Despite the fact that the Saintess Squad rarely exercises these rights, their status in this theocracy is on par with that of the Pope.
As long as they make a request, the believers throughout the country will do their utmost to fulfill it for them.
Some might think that the Saintess Squad could just let all the believers die, or do some absurd and excessive things...
6. That just shows that people who think that way have some kind of problem with their brains.
The premise is that the Saintess Squad would never issue such an order.
