Still adorable

"Hey , Wu Jie, are you OK? You don't look too good." Wincu asked, in a concerned tone.

"My body has been exhausted during the fight. I simply require rest," I replied somewhat weakly. I turned and walked away, heading directly to my room, slowly stripping then heading to the bathroom to take a quick shower, so I can at least feel clean. Even though the suits had an automatic cleaning system, nothing beats water... Nothing.

Finished, I grabbed a simple cloth and covered my chest, which reminded me that I was sadly still flat-chested. Oh, boobs, how much I miss you so.

Honestly, adding the cloth or not didn't matter, but I still bound my chest. Starting early is good repetition for the future. Pairing it with baggy boy shorts mid-thigh, covering my narrow waist, I felt even more depressed, but I perked up. In my past life at this age my legs were small but now they were well-shaped and toned.

Maybe in the next ten years, I will get hips like my last life, perhaps even bigger.

Anyway, at twelve, in a new world and a new body, it will be started... Ah, what was I thinking? That statement was a bit wrong, but I felt too tired to bother. Falling on the bed, I passed out.

The system gathered resources from the nearby beasts and children scanning around to make sure the host was safe while she slept. The system then sent out a wave to scatter the approaching alphas and titans.

The host was still young and weak, with vitality levels at a mere 22% once enough was gathered without notice.

After the system returned to being dormant when it achieved satisfactory results.

The next day I woke refreshed and went to the kitchen to prepare a large meal, taking out the Pytrot meat and grilling it, adding rice and some shoots of Crytis,which looked a bit similar to bamboo shoots except that it was a pale grey colour instead of green.

Once the meal was finished, I placed the dishes on the table and sent a message to the others. When they arrived, we sat and ate.

"Wow, it is so tasty. Back home, my family has never had an opportunity to purchase this meat anywhere. Wu Jie, if you brought it back..." 

The little chatterbox spoke. Normally one should be silent while sitting at the dinner table, but this girl… she seemed to be like a faucet going on and on each time we sat and ate together.

Well, I do hope she loses the habit when she returns to the school, that is, if she leaves here alive.

"Wu Jie, when I look into your eyes they seem so feral," Wincu whispered.

"…but I am otherwise still adorable," I replied, stating a fact that no one could ignore; I was adorable and, as I grow older, I will probably look exactly like my mother who had a beauty to rival countries.

"You are right, Wu Jie, you are adorable," Cehn commented flatly. It would have had a better effect if his face didn't have a look as if it was carved from stone.

Well, it is OK; he was a kid compared to the total age of this body.

I sat there feeling sated, with the system informing me that I had gained 2% vitality from the meat.

Alright, so it was two thousand grams of meat eaten quickly; before they came down was half that then the remainder when they had sat.

I was close to passing out from the hunger. Yesterday used up a lot of energy.

Cehn stood and began removing the dishes while Wincu stood with a bright smile and cleaned the table.

"I hope the both of you keep practising," I informed them. "This house may be protected now but if an alpha happens to rampage and topple the tree, we will be for a while without a home as we seek a new place. With the freeze, we need to keep a suit aside in case that happens – and a helmet."

After yesterday, those foolish children might bring us death in their stupidity.

Clenching my fists, I thought on that group, hoping once more they die.

"mmm.."

"Okay, Wu Jie," 

"As long as both of you are aware, then I shall relax awhile outside. Take that time to venture among the trees to stretch your limbs." 

With that I stepped towards the exit, lounging on the patio, it was an extremely beautiful view.

Purple grass, swaying multicoloured trees, mountains and birds, the sound of various animals and insect were heard.

Even though dangerous, I will miss all of this when I leave.

The school, I bet, would be much worse.

The normal bullying, with groups forming to repress those deemed beneath them.

Sigh, I can't even kill them off.
