Astral Express, inside the train car.
Zeig stood in front of the room door, giving instructions to March 7th:
"Alright, I'm going to rest now. You go play somewhere else, I'll come find you after I wake up."
As he spoke, he was about to step inside, but March 7th grabbed his clothes hem.
She said angrily:
"You're resting, fine, but what do you mean by going into my room?"
Zeig stood innocently in front of March 7th's room door.
"The atmosphere here is good, I'll sleep more comfortably."
March 7th: "..."
Time.
It was like watching sows lined up diving into a ditch.
It always passed particularly fast.
In the parlor car.
On the sofa, Zeig lay on his side, curled up.
I have to say, this sofa is pretty comfortable, it's just a bit awkward lying here.
Next to him, Himeko was sipping coffee.
She took a small sip and smiled:
"Don't worry, once March calms down, she'll definitely give your room keycard back to you. You too, why did you have to provoke her, now you can only lie in the parlor car."
Zeig forced a smile:
"The train is my home, sleeping anywhere is the same."
Anyway, he could be considered one of the people on the train now, what's wrong with lying on March 7th's pink soft big bed for a bit.
Moreover, he had already promised to help her buy a more expensive camera, couldn't he at least sit on it.
Before, she even called him sugar daddy.
Sigh, a woman's heart.
Needle at the bottom of the sea.
"What? Are you cursing me?"
From far away, March 7th's voice was heard.
She figured it was about time, so she came out holding Zeig's room keycard.
She was originally planning to give it back to him, but seeing his resentful expression like a bitter wife, she suddenly didn't want to.
"Haha, how could that be." Zeig shot up sitting, immediately responding with a sincere smile, making March 7th's goosebumps fall all over the floor.
"We're partners, in my heart, there's always you!"
March 7th looked suspicious: "Why don't I believe that. With your personality, I always feel you're not thinking that."
Zeig, upon hearing this.
Silently took out an unopened camera from his pocket:
"Look, I just ordered it not long ago and it arrived, the camera you asked me to buy, is this the model?"
March 7th knelt on one knee, respectfully presenting the room keycard with both hands:
"Brother Zeig, sorry, I was a bit too loud just now."
Zeig quickly helped her up: "We're all family brothers, no need to be so formal, please get up quickly."
Himeko watched the two interacting, couldn't help but purse her lips and smile.
On the train, finally there's someone who can keep up with little March's antics.
March 7th fiddled with the new camera, asked Zeig: "When did you order it, it seems like not long since you threw me into the parlor car."
"Yeah, just about four hours, my legs are numb from lying here."
March 7th: "..."
[Cooling ended, restarting slacking mode]
[Resting]
[Slacking experience +2, +1, +2...]
Suddenly, the imaginary energy around Zeig converged a lot.
Himeko also raised an eyebrow, she naturally noticed this.
The current Zeig no longer emitted a powerful aura like before, but was more like an ordinary commoner.
"Zeig, you can actually restrain your aura to this extent?" Himeko couldn't help asking.
Zeig knew what Himeko was talking about, waved his hand: "I didn't expect that even Teacher Himeko you discovered it, truly an expert."
He had just recovered his slacking state, and it attracted Teacher Himeko's attention.
Tsk tsk tsk, not simple.
Himeko smiled and shook her head:
"I'm just a bit more sensitive to auras, that's all."
Some people naturally carry a certain presence.
For example, the most commonly mentioned by ordinary people "killing intent", is a type of presence.
When Zeig was in Stellaron liberation state, he carried an Emanator-level presence, which Himeko could feel.
But now, it mysteriously converged to none at all.
This was a bit incomprehensible.
Himeko knew some experts could restrain their aura, thereby lowering their sense of existence.
But like Zeig, so thoroughly, it was the first time she saw.
March 7th heard the conversation between Himeko and Zeig, a bit confused: "What what, what are you talking about? Why can't I understand?"
Zeig picked up a grape from the table, ate one, mumbled:
"Adults talking, kids don't interrupt."
[Slacking experience +2, +3...]
March 7th: "..."
Under the gaze of Zeig and Himeko.
March 7th's expression was cold, she walked to the sofa.
Took the room keycard from the table, put it in her own pocket.
"Hey, Third Sis, what are you doing? Standing is tiring. Sit, sit quickly!"
Zeig quickly made space on the sofa, considerately helped March 7th sit down.
Didn't forget to pick up a grape from the table and feed her one.
March 7th snorted coldly, opened her mouth to eat the grape Zeig fed, mumbled while chewing:
"What, weren't you pretty arrogant just now?"
Zeig smiled flatteringly, shyly said:
"Aiya, it was all a misunderstanding earlier. Please give me the room keycard back, lying in the parlor car is uncomfortable, let me go back to sleep, it's better, here I'm still in your way."
Zeig had tested it before, his pleasure value when slacking is very important.
For example, when Kafka was still there, sitting on the metal floor only gave 1 point of slacking experience per period.
But now lying on the sofa, occasionally adds 2 points.
When eating, stably 2 points, sometimes even 3 points.
This was discovered when eating Silver Wolf's snacks, later went to support, hadn't had time to try lying on a proper big bed.
"Consider you sensible." March 7th casually placed the room keycard on the table, then said:
"By the way, now that you have money, did you buy some things for yourself online?"
The camera he bought for her arrived, but he couldn't have only bought the camera.
Anyway, March 7th didn't believe Zeig got a billion and could still stay frugal.
"Not delivered yet, no rush."
Zeig smiled, took the room keycard and walked to his own room.
Opened the door, stepped in, closed the door.
Changed into slippers, lay on the bed in a "大" shape.
"Ah~" Zeig moaned.
[Slacking experience +4, +4, +3...]
"As expected, lying on the bed is better!"
"..."
As if possessed.
Zeig suddenly sat up.
Put on shoes, opened the door, poked his head out, looked left and right, walked out of the room.
Opened March 7th's room door, turned back, looked left and right, entered the room.
Plop, fell onto March 7th's big soft bed.
Took a deep breath of the fragrance on the quilt.
"Ah~"
[Slacking experience +20, +23, +21...]
Zeig: "!!!"
"Oh my god."
Lying on March 7th's bed, good grief, slacking experience shooting up like a rocket!
This place is simply paradise!
"System, if I keep lying here, how long to raise the Stellaron level to Emanator second order?" Zeig couldn't help asking.
[Replying to host, if maintaining the current growth rate unchanged, only needs two days.]
"Two days?!" Zeig was shocked.
Heard many people can't even become Pathstriders, let alone Aeon Emanators.
And Zeig is already Emanator level, the way to increase strength is actually just sleeping two days on March 7th's bed?
There's such a good thing!
"Thump, thump, thump——"
Outside the door, footsteps from far to near.
Made Zeig's heart tighten.
Could it be March 7th is back?
[Slacking experience +17, +14, +9...]
Zeig: "???"
[Slacking experience +5, +3, +2...]
Zeig: "?!!"
He widened his eyes, directly sat up.
"Why? Why? Why did the experience drop so much?"
Good grief, from bottom 20 dropping to single digits, playing roller coaster here.
[Replying to host, slacking experience is related to pleasure value, you heard footsteps and already started feeling anxious and tense, in this state even lying in March 7th's arms is useless...]
"No, although haven't tried, but lying in her arms definitely works." Zeig corrected.
System: "..."
