"Uh~~ Stop making trouble, little guy~~"

Early the next morning, I lost to a small hand that kept harassing my nose. I opened my eyes helplessly and saw a white light figure leaning over me, using a small bunch of thin hair to keep touching me.

Making trouble.

"Little lazy pig, you are full of sleep, but I am not. Let me sleep a little longer, huh~~"

I opened my eyes drowsily, glanced at the other person, and closed them again drowsily. This was a common conversation in the morning on weekdays, but now the roles were reversed, and it became a little ghost waking me up.

Artoria has already gotten up and is probably in the study now, continuing to fight to the death with those documents that have been accumulated for more than ten days. Having said that, if sleeping in the same bed can be considered 4p, then adding the newcomer last night

My little Sarah, we really had a foursome for a while.

With his heart so dazed, Pu closed his eyes, and his nose and mouth were immediately sealed by two soft little hands. After holding it in for a moment, he finally realized that once people lose their breath, they can't live, even adventurers.

With the same reasoning, I opened my eyes again with a subtle and complicated mentality.

The words of karma are indeed true. The tricks I usually use to deal with waking up sleeping little ghosts are now used by her, and she serves me in turn.

The only difference is that although the little ghost's physical body, which is condensed from soul energy, has the same structure as a human being, that is to say, it will breathe habitually, which will be more comfortable and natural, but when it is absolutely necessary, even if it does not breathe, it will

OK.

What is the last resort? The answer is obvious - when she wants to stay in bed.

The same moves used by me to deal with the little ghost have average effects, but when the little ghost learns them to deal with myself, the effect is outstanding. Do you think my mind is not complicated?

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

I narrowed my eyes reluctantly and looked at the angry little ghost with bulging cheeks. I said helplessly, as if I wanted to finish speaking quickly so that I could go back to sleep again.

I can’t help it, last night with Sarah... ahem, that consumed a lot of energy, so please let me rest for a while, Alice~~!

"Let's do it, last night with little Sarah~~"

The little ghost stared at me closely, until I felt uncomfortable being stared at, and then spoke in a voice full of resentment, as if coming from a ghost's mouth.

Oh, sorry, she was originally a ghost.

"Ahem, what are you talking about, I don't understand?"

After I realized what the little ghost was asking, I immediately went into pretending to be stupid mode.

"Wow!!"

The little ghost classmate who obviously didn't expect me to be able to open her eyes and tell lies, let out her signature short exclamation. Her eyes, which looked like a full moon reflected on a clear spring, rippling with silvery mysterious light, looked extremely troubled.

Then, she cast her gaze to the side and closed her eyes tightly, as if she was trying to cover up the fact that we didn't do anything last night.

Sarah, baby, don't pretend to be asleep, it's already been seen, your eyes are closed so hard, your eyelashes are trembling.

It seemed that she was aware of her current ostrich mentality. Her long eyelashes trembled slightly again. Sarah finally opened her majestic and clear crimson eyes like flame gems, lowered her head shyly, not daring to

Touch the sight of the little ghost.

Just like the moon reflected in the lake rippling gently in the water waves blown by the wind, the silver pupils reveal a bright and mysterious aura, and the pure innocent, burning and majestic ruby ​​​​is like the fire of the red lotus, which can burn and purify the human heart.

Pupils, these two pairs are perhaps the most beautiful and peculiar pupils in the world. Now they are gathered together and looking at each other. It really makes me feel a little flattered to be able to watch this scene from the sidelines.

"Little Sarah, tell me, did you and Xiaofan do it last night?"

Seeing that my face was thicker than the city wall, and that I could do things like calling a deer a horse, let alone talking nonsense, our clever Holy Lady, naturally and decisively gave up on me, a tough nut to crack, and turned to attack Sarah.

.

With a "swipe", Sarah's little face looked as if she was drunk, flushed, and her expression actually started to sway as if she was drunk. She kept glancing towards me and saw that I had no reaction. Finally, when the little ghost was aggressive,

Under his eyes, he nodded, and then his face burned, and like the extremely shy Willas, his eyes rolled in circles, and there was a "pop" in his head, and white smoke billowed out.

The next moment, the little angel decisively got into my arms, as if there was a crack in my chest and she wanted to get in. She kept arching against it and buried her head deeply.

"Humph, that's true."

The little ghost looked back at me proudly, with the posture of calling for an attack, just like the inspector of the Eight Prefectures sitting on the high hall's papers, with a "mirror hanging high" above his head, and holding the decision-making token in his hand.

"Even if it's true, there's no need for you to be so angry."

Seeing the little ghost getting angry, I was a little confused. Judging from her character, she shouldn't be jealous of such a small thing. After all, a month ago on a certain day of a certain year, this little saint sneaked into Sha and I's house without permission.

On the bed, when I got up in the morning, I hugged the shy Sarah, and wanted to perform an impromptu show for her who was pretending to sleep. Unfortunately, I almost entered the 3p branch.

Sorry, I lied, not even close.

In short, judging from the little ghost's character and way of thinking, she is not someone who would mind such things. If she had, she would have cared about it a long time ago.

Sure enough, after hearing my question, the little saint immediately pouted her mouth, pointed at the small pile of diamonds on the place where she had just fallen asleep, and said sadly and angrily.

"Xiaofan, I don't care who you are with and what you are doing, but Wei Wei used a bunch of diamonds to fool this saint, which is absolutely unforgivable."

Oh, I understood immediately.

It turns out that this is what happened. Last night, in order to pull off the little ghost hanging on me like an octopus, I used a bunch of diamonds to make a fragrant (for the little ghost) little nest.

He deceived her and put her on it, but it turned out that this was where she became angry, at the fact that she had been deceived by the diamond and thrown aside.

"I will never forgive you, click click click~~, a mere servant, click click click, dare to deceive this holy lady, click click click~~, I will not forgive you Xiaofan no matter what you say this time, click click click~~

"

"..."

By the way, the way you said such resolute words while very non-resolutely grabbing the pile of diamonds that deceived you and gnawing them up really drove away the little guilt that just arose in my heart.

It's completely clean, do you know? Little ghost classmate.

"Okay, okay, you can punish me like this in the future. Little guy, let me ask you something serious. How was your gnawing on the tree yesterday?"

Thinking of the conversation with the sinister maid Jeluka last night, I couldn't help but ask immediately.

"Well, the taste is okay. It's a bit softer than diamonds, but the taste is not as good."

The little ghost gnawed clean a complete diamond as big as a fist like a squirrel holding a pine cone, and said approvingly.

"No... what I want to ask about is not the texture and taste, and I am not interested in knowing it at all. You are the only one in the world who can compare the two. Be more serious!!"

The sharp knife fell on the little guy's forehead, and a scream of "Wow!!" suddenly sounded.

"I mean, for example, if you ate diamonds before, wouldn't you be promoted from the priest profession to a saint? What will you gain from eating the crystal tree this time? For example, upgrade or something."

"That's what I was talking about."

The little ghost held his forehead, looking for flaws in my body with the sharp eyes of a boxer, and responded in a nonchalant tone.

"Yeah, that's right, upgraded to a level."

Sure enough!!

Unable to suppress my excitement, I grabbed the little ghost's shoulders and looked at her intently, as if I wanted to see her body structure clearly.

"Oh, Xiaofan, your scratching hurts me." The little ghost looked at me with tears in his eyes.

"Sorry~~I was too excited."

I quickly loosened my grip on my shoulders, took a deep breath, and tried to calm myself down.

"Hmph, Xiaofan is really making a big fuss. Isn't it just that he has been promoted to a level? It is not easy for this saint to upgrade?"

Seeing that I was so concerned, the little ghost's beautiful eyes turned around, and he immediately became proud with a little happiness. He crossed his arms and stood upright like a proud little rooster.

"Then please, our incomparable noble saint, please immediately use other methods to level up and show me?" I planned to expose the bullshit of this bluffing ghost without mercy.

"Not going."

The little ghost answered very simply, who do you think this saint is?

All in all, although there are many doubts, it can be confirmed that the little ghost can level up by eating the crystal tree.

Thinking of this, my heart suddenly became hot. I didn't want to waste any time, so I immediately hugged the little ghost.

"Come on, come on, let's eat the tree together."

"You want to eat too?"

The little ghost raised his head in his arms and looked at me troubled.

"Wow, idiot, don't worry~~"

As a result, without saying a word, I rushed out of the house with her in my arms and ran straight to the top of the Crystal Tree.

"Big brother~~, wait for me!"

From behind came the voice of Sarah who hurriedly changed into her coat. She was not a girl like me. It didn't matter if she rushed out in her pajamas.

Soon, the three of us rushed up to the canopy of the Crystal Tree. When we got here, for the little ghost, it was like entering a world made of fragrant cakes and candies. She broke away from my arms and walked slowly.

Floating in the air, with his eyes closed, his lovely nose kept wagging around, and then he suddenly discovered something. Gulu, who was greedy, swallowed a mouthful of saliva and flew towards one of the directions with joy.

"..."

Is it true, as this guy said, that for her, the Crystal Tree has different flavors, and different branches have different flavors?

Looking at the little ghost's actions, Sarah and I were in a distant state for a long time.

After a while, the little ghost gently landed on a branch, looked left and right, the tip of its nose kept twitching, and then circled the branch, which was about the thickness of a water tank, several times, as if it had finally determined something.

Then he put his little mouth up and bit down with a sound of "Ah woo~~", leaving a small bite mark on the branch.

Although I had already seen the branch that was chewed with scars by the little ghost yesterday, but now that I saw it with my own eyes, I still felt... how should I put it? It really cannot be described in words.

It's a very subtle feeling. Seeing her chewing happily, I even have a thought in my heart: "Is it really that delicious? Could the Crystal Tree be unexpectedly delicious?"

However, I immediately gave up this idea. As a lesson learned from the past, I still clearly remember that after the Battle of Gamorro, at the home of the old man Gallon, the hairy-legged fairy, I saw the little ghost gnawing diamonds with a happy face, and even got angry because of it.

I was promoted from a priest to a saint. I had a little bit of luck, thinking that I could also get a special profession such as a holy druid or a red lotus druid, but I ended up holding a gem and biting it like this.

When I pushed it down, my teeth immediately popped out...

In this world, there will always be things that others can do easily, but no matter how hard you try, you can't do it. Just like Duola [Beep] Meng Guess Rock Paper Scissors, you can never make scissors and steps. We call it

This phenomenon is called the species divide.

Throughout the morning, Sarah and I sat not far away, half leaning on the tree trunk, chatting, and watching the light figure of the little ghost, constantly circling around, using her hard teeth that completely broke the rules,

Leave bite marks on the crystal tree.

Although the little ghost's eating is usually described in a very unsavory way, and is always described in terms of eating like a fuss, but in fact, as a candidate for a saint in the previous life, the way the little ghost eats is still very elegant, and can even be described as pleasing to the eye.

To describe it, it’s just that the frequency is a little too fast, giving people the feeling of a woodpecker.

Now she can eat the whole tree by herself, and no one will fight for it. Even if she wanted to fight, she wouldn't be able to fight.

Therefore, the satisfied little guy changed his previous eating attitude and began to eat slowly, pickyly, and with a protracted battle. He took a bite here and chewed slowly while his light ghost body continued to move forward.

Weaving between the branches, waiting for it to be swallowed, the next target was found.

Occasionally, the little guy will pick off a piece of crystal leaf, put it elegantly into his mouth, and taste it carefully. Maybe this leaf is like a snack to her, if she is not the only one, if it is not the food that is the object of eating.

It was so curious that Sarah and I even thought that this was some aristocratic family holding a ball, and the little ghost was the noble princess who shuttled between the tables.
