Kurikara, the name of the small life inside the dragon egg.
Although Ryn thought calling it the "Red Electric Dragon" sounded better, he then imagined a future where Mei might ride this dragon as a mount in battle.
The enemy on the other side, holding a greatsword with a fierce expression, would be staring at Mei. Then Mei would turn to the side, strike a domineering summoning pose, and raise her hand high, shouting:
"Come forth! Red Electric Dragon!"
Was the plan to make the enemy die of laughter, and then use a finishing move to end him while he was distracted?
After thinking about it, Ryn felt this move could be very effective in actual combat! He then discussed this possibility with Mei…
Now, let's not talk about it anymore. The wind at the door is a bit strong.
Ryn pulled at his collar, covering his face. The wind outside was a bit strong, making him feel a little cold.
After Ryn was kicked out of Himeko's house, Judah also left with him, walking home together.
Seeing that Ryn seemed a bit cold, Judah thoughtfully took off her own coat and draped it over him.
Ryn looked at the extra coat on his body, then tilted his head to look at Judah beside him.
Seeing Ryn tilt his head to look at her, Judah copied him, tilting her head to look at Ryn.
The two of them just stood there in silence, looking at each other.
Ryn: *Does she like me?*
Judah: *Are we playing Statues now?*
"I'm not cold, thank you, Judah."
Ryn thanked Judah for her kindness, then adjusted the coat on his shoulders and continued heading home.
"Oh." Judah nodded and continued to follow behind Ryn.
As they were walking… Judah suddenly picked up her pace, walked up to Ryn's side, and stripped the coat off his shoulders, putting it back on herself.
"???" Ryn looked at Judah, bewildered. What was that about?
"Is something wrong?"
Judah continued walking, not feeling that her actions were inappropriate at all.
"Nothing… I was just a little surprised that you suddenly came up and stripped my clothes off."
"Why were you surprised? If Ryn wasn't cold, but you didn't give me back my coat, shouldn't I take it back myself?"
"You should…"
Ryn covered his face and pushed open the door to his home.
As expected, he still couldn't understand the thoughts of non-humans…
Kukulkan, Maheśvara, and now Judah… he couldn't apply normal human logic to any of them…
*Rumble—*
Yae Sakura clutched her stomach, running past Ryn and Judah with a pained expression.
Upon seeing Ryn and Judah return, Yae Sakura gave them a look that screamed "run," then rushed into the bathroom in despair.
The next second, Kallen, covered in grime, with flour and dust smudged all over her face, came chasing out of the kitchen holding a plate of a bizarre, bubbling purple liquid.
"Eh? Ryn, you're back! Want to try my newly invented Banana Tomato Potato Chip Soup?"
Kallen looked at Ryn and Judah happily, smiling with the pure innocence of an eight-hundred-jin child.
"No thanks, I've got something to do. Kukulkan is giving birth… no, wait, I mean I'm going to pick up Kika…" Ryn quickly waved his hands in refusal, then turned and fled his own house without a second glance.
What a joke. Yae Sakura, who relied on her Herrscher constitution to be unkillable and had been taste-testing for Kallen, was already running to the bathroom in agony. He'd have to be crazy to try Kallen's cooking.
Which little genius taught the Kaslana family members that they could just add whatever they wanted while cooking! If he ever found out, he would definitely give them a good few punches.
He left, without looking back…
Judah sighed, then opened her arms with a look of resignation, as if she were facing her own execution, and looked at Kallen.
"Come on, I'm ready."
"For Judah… I have a new dish just for you!" Kallen exclaimed excitedly, then put the large bowl in her hands aside and turned to run into the kitchen to get the exclusive meal she had prepared for Judah.
Judah glanced at the demonic dish on the table, which emanated a devilish aura and was incredibly sanity-draining. Just looking at it felt like being pulled into an abyss.
"Maybe… I should run too?"
"Run from what?"
Kallen pushed open the kitchen door, carrying a large box.
Judah: "N-nothing…"
"Hehe, let me show you the super-invincible, cosmic-big-bang, ultimate-number-one 'Battery Hotchpotch' I'm preparing to make!"
Kallen proudly lifted the pot lid, revealing a beef soup with various models of energy batteries as its ingredients.
Judah looked at the soup, which was good for nothing and would surely kill anyone who ate it, then looked at Kallen, who was full of anticipation, hoping to hear praise after she drank it.
"Kallen, maybe you should stop experimenting and just obediently follow a recipe…?"
"Wuu…" Kallen poked her fingers together shyly, looking a little embarrassed.
"Actually, I started by following the recipe… but as I was cooking, I accidentally ate all the normal ingredients… so I found some substitutes…"
"Sigh…"
Judah closed her eyes. Having such a family member, she didn't know if it was a good thing or a bad thing. It was probably a punishment from the heavens for some misdeed she committed in her past life!
As if having made a firm decision, she resolutely picked up the spoon and scooped up a spoonful of soup.
*Clang—*
The sound of something colliding drew Judah and Kallen's attention.
They saw Ryn tiptoeing in through the window, but he accidentally stepped on a box in the corner, knocking over a nearby shelf…
"Hahahaha… Forgot something, just came back to get it…"
Ryn laughed awkwardly, then his expression quickly stiffened as if he had seen something.
He quickly grabbed a phone charger from the table, and as if he had seen something absolutely terrifying, he scrambled and tumbled back out the window.
"Strange… are we that scary? I'm not going to hurt him… Is he too scared to even use the door anymore?"
Kallen felt a little wronged seeing Ryn look at her as if she were some kind of demon.
"Don't mind him. Ryn's way of thinking is very strange. I can rarely understand him…"
Judah shook her head. Ryn's thoughts were too wild; her own shallow knowledge was completely unable to resonate with his and understand his meaning.
But when Judah looked down, she suddenly seemed to understand why Ryn had fled in such a panic…
Because…
In just a short half-minute, the spoon in Judah's hand was already half-gone, the rest having dissolved into the soup.
It was as if it had been dipped in concentrated sulfuric acid… it had simply melted away…
Judah resolutely raised her head, placed her hands on Kallen's shoulders, and looked at her seriously, saying:
"I just remembered something urgent. Theresa's bitter melon juice for tonight hasn't been prepared yet. I have to go make it for her now!"
After saying that, without giving Kallen a chance to react, Judah transformed directly into her cross weapon form, activated her super-high-speed flight mode, shattered the window glass, and disappeared from Kallen's sight…
"What's wrong, what's wrong!?"
Hearing the sound of breaking glass, Yae Sakura, thinking something had happened, quickly rushed out of the bathroom.
But when she saw Kallen smiling at her, and the two bowls of "demonic cuisine" by Kallen's side…
Yae Sakura's perked-up fox ears instantly drooped…
"Uh… you see… uh… I left something in the bathroom, I'll be right back…!"
