Book-eating Goblin

I found a girl of unknown origin outside; she claims to be a time traveler from a post-apocalyptic era.
Great calamity is imminent, with abominations spreading across the land, human civilization annihilated, and even the world itself shattering, all beyond redemption.
As for myself,
I am considering how to confine this beautiful girl, who has temporarily lost her powers, within my home.

Apocalyptic Era: Starting from picking up a Bishoujo

Hearing my response, Zhu Shi showed an expression that was both incredibly surprised and not unexpected.


Just listening to the description, it might seem hard to imagine such a change in expression. I think Zhu Shi has a clear and objective understanding of her own appearance and how easily she can charm others. Simply put, she is not one of those naive girls who are oblivious to their own allure. Before hearing my reply, she must have also made corresponding mental preparations.


On the other hand, she may have wanted to show that she hadn't anticipated this kind of response. This sort of acting could be unconscious, it should have been more natural. Perhaps she also hopes to interact with sincerity; the reflexive acting not completely masking her true feelings.


She seemed to struggle internally for two seconds, then said, "You actually admitted it directly!"
