SWNOVELXO Chapter 242 Birthday
Soon after, the battle on Kosmo's side ended. Kosmo, covered in unknown liquid, crawled out of the pit. His taciturn appearance made several people really not think that he was the one who had just slaughtered so many Honkai beasts.
Cosmo nodded politely when he saw the Alicia trio coming over, and then walked behind Kevin, trying to keep his presence as low as possible.
"Ahem, Kevin, it seems you are a bit slower than me this time~?"
Alicia coughed slightly and emphasized.
"What do you mean?"
Kevin didn't understand what Alicia was talking about.
"It's about our strength~ This time I completed the part I was responsible for before you. Doesn't this prove that I'm just a little bit stronger than you?"
Alicia pinched her index finger and thumb together, leaving a gap in the middle.
"……Maybe."
Kevin also had the same indifferent attitude. Anyway, what Alicia said was right.
"Hey~ why don't you show some energy~? Otherwise it will make me look like a child..."
Alicia was not satisfied, and there was no sense of achievement at all in defeating Kevin who was not serious about it.
No, sometimes you really look like a child...
This is the thought shared by everyone present.
"Alicia, you can compete with Li. He is the first among us to become a fusion warrior, and his abilities are also amazing."
Kevin suggested for Alicia.
"Hey, hey, hey! Don't bring the flames of war to my side!" Li protested, "Just compare your output with your output. What does it mean to have me as an assistant?"
What Li said is correct. His current ability consumes a lot of money, is highly random, and has a small range. He is definitely not as good as Alicia and Kevin, the two authentic fusion warriors, in head-on combat.
"That's it."
Alicia almost had the same idea, "So, Kevin, be serious~ Blind humility is not particularly popular with girls sometimes~?"
"..."
Kevin shook his head and ignored her. Instead, he stepped into a jeep. The mission was completed and he was ready to go back.
"Eh! Kevin!"
Alicia shouted quickly, but the sound of the cold car engine responded to her, and the next moment Kevin drove the car in the direction of the base.
"Ah...really, when did Kevin become so ruthless? In the past, he could patiently listen to my request and then take the trouble to reject it repeatedly..."
Alicia said sadly.
No, Kevin just made the most correct choice. When he is entangled with you, the only way is to run, as far away as possible. Although this method is shameful, it is also effective.
Li secretly cursed, "Then we're leaving too? Hen, you should have a second car, right?"
"Of course."
Hen took out the car keys from his pocket and didn't know where he parked the car.
"Lend me to drive for a while? We have to go back to the base first anyway." Li Zei said unwillingly. He still wanted to experience the feeling of driving.
"That's a nice thought. If we let you drive, it's still unclear whether we can go back safely."
Hen would not be soft-hearted. Blanca got the surveillance video of Li's previous car accident from Mebius. Who would drive a car and lose all four wheels? !
"Li, you can ride with us in the car. When you are free soon, I will ask someone to arrange a driving test for you. Before that, you can just be a passenger in peace~?" Ya also advised.
"Ah... By the way, Captain Alicia, I won't go back with you this time."
At this time, Destobia suddenly said.
"……Me too."
Kosmo also said to Hen.
"Are you together?"
Hen looked at Destobia, then at Kosmo, and couldn't help but reveal a smile like an old father's face, "Could it be that you...?"
"No, have you forgotten? That thing."
Destobia reminded, "What Dr. Mei just said yesterday, think about it?"
"...Oh! It's Kevin's birthday!"
Hen reacted, and his high voice startled Destobia, and he quickly made a shushing gesture, "Uncle Hen, please be gentle. What if Captain Kevin suddenly comes back to kill you?"
"My fault, my fault..."
Hen quickly lowered his voice.
"So you and Kosmo went shopping for gifts together?" Li asked.
"Of course, all the props needed to celebrate birthdays, as well as birthday cakes and so on, need to be prepared!" Destobia nodded.
"Ah... As for the birthday cake, Mei and I have already ordered it~ It's a big five-layer chocolate cake~?"
Alicia took out her mobile phone and showed the cake style to several people.
"So big? How many people does it serve?" Li gestured and asked in surprise.
"Hmm... Anyway, it's definitely enough for ten people~?" Alicia took back her phone, "Sakura also bought some room decorations for the birthday party, so you and Cosmo just need to buy some other things~? "
"It seems that everyone is well prepared, isn't it? It's like a certain uncle, so careless that he almost forgot about it." Destobia hummed.
"..."
Hen scratched his head in embarrassment.
"But speaking of birthdays, I know everyone's birthday, but I seem to have never heard of your birthday..." Destobia looked at Li and took out a small notebook from her pocket, "Li, say Tell me, when is your birthday? Then we can prepare a surprise for you."
"Me? I don't know..."
Li, who was born out of nowhere, was about to shake his head, but Alicia said in advance: "Li's birthday is March 25th~?"
"???"
Li looked at Alicia with questions. Even Li didn't know her birthday, so how could Alicia know?
Did you say it casually? still……
Li looked at Alicia's eyes with conviction. It should be... true, right?
"March 25th, okay, I'll note it down!"
Destobia wrote this information in her little notebook. Now, the birthday dates of the other eight fusion warriors are known, and the only thing she will worry about in the future is what gifts to give them.
"March 25th...has passed now, right?" Hen calculated the date, and then gloated, "So if you want to celebrate your birthday, you have to wait until next year?"
"Make it look like I've had a birthday before."
Li rolled her eyes and didn't bother to pay attention to him.
"Never once?"
Destobia looked at Li with a hint of sympathy in her eyes, "How about... I also buy you a gift? Just think of it as a supplement to your birthday gift this year?"
"forget it……"
