Bubble gum clung to Silver Wolf's mouth, resembling a comical ring of whiskers.
Unable to suppress a smile, the silver-haired girl asked, "Kafka... since when did you acquire a son?"
"Alright, let's clean that bubble gum from your mouth first before continuing..." Kafka sighed, "About a 'son'... please don't joke like that. You know it won't happen."
Indeed, Kafka didn't even have a boyfriend, so where would she get a son?
Silver Wolf naturally understood but couldn't resist teasing her friend.
Subsequently, she obediently removed the bubble gum.
With a helpless glance at Bochang lying on the ground, Kafka remarked, "This child... must be quite disoriented in his sleep."
"Much like newly hatched chicks or ducklings, mistaking the first creature they see after emerging as their mother," Silver Wolf added coldly.
Kafka's voice trailed off, emitting a slightly lazy big sister tone.
"Alright, alright... let's talk about something serious instead. For instance... who are you? And why did you appear here?"
As she spoke...
Kafka crouched down, her gentle burgundy eyes intently gazing at Bochang.
A faintly pleasant aroma accompanied her presence, lifting one's spirits.
However, Bochang's focus was not on Kafka but rather on his reward notification:
[Reward distribution in progress - Congratulations! You have obtained the power of the Dragon Talisman.]
'Dragon Talisman! This is an absolute jackpot!' The black-haired youth felt elated.
In an instant... Bochang sensed a warm surge throughout his body, imbuing him with an explosive force that he could unleash at will, capable of destroying everything before him.
This was power.
The power of the Dragon Talisman.
Instead of granting the talisman itself, [Dating Options] directly bestowed its strength upon Bochang.
It felt incredibly satisfying.
Unaware of why the black-haired youth was staring at her with gleaming eyes, Kafka prepared to deliver a swift slap, intending to jolt him back to reality...
Gathering his thoughts, Bochang replied, "I... I am called Bochang."
"I don't know why I ended up here either... I was sleeping at home, and when I opened my eyes, suddenly... I found myself lying here." Bochang shook his head, indicating he had no clear understanding of what had happened.
Kafka glanced at Silver Wolf, who had discreetly summoned a translucent screen before her.
The silver-haired girl spoke up, "There are no signs of deception detected; what he says appears to be true. Hmm... I'm not sure how this occurred either. Could someone have teleported him here?"
Kafka silently stared at Silver Wolf, as if questioning whether she was responsible for this incident.
"This has nothing to do with me," Silver Wolf said, hands on her hips. "I wouldn't waste my time like that."
The woman with long burgundy hair pondered for a moment and realized it made sense.
She then shifted her gaze towards Bochang, and Kafka softly asked, "And... why did you call me 'Mom'?"
Faced with this question, Bochang was unsure how to respond, and the "Dating Options" system did not pop up.
Thus, he could only muster some courage and say:
"I just blurted it out instinctively... Sorry, I didn't mean to startle you both."
Bochang forced a smile, trying his best to compose himself.
Silver Wolf countered, "His heartbeat quickened, blood pressure rose—he's lying. It seems he deliberately called you that, but I don't know his intention. Could it be to evoke your maternal instincts?"
Bochang found it peculiar; despite being at a distance, he hadn't felt any devices attached by Silver Wolf.
How exactly was she detecting lies with such precision?
Silver Wolf met Bochang's gaze and remarked, "Do you really care about this?" She continued, "It's just a little gadget, quite effective against ordinary people."
Her silver eyes exuded cold indifference.
A chill ran through Bochang, causing him to unconsciously divert his gaze. Only then did he realize something.
He was wearing nothing but SpongeBob-themed underwear.
It appeared as though he had been transported while sleeping, without even changing clothes.
Lying on the icy floor clad only in his briefs, no wonder he felt so cold.
This realization also brought a hint of embarrassment to Bochang.
No wonder he felt cold.
This realization also brought a hint of embarrassment to Bochang's mind.
"Have you decided what to do with him?" Silver Wolf's voice echoed.
Kafka, unperturbed by Bochang mistakenly calling her "Mom," responded calmly, "He's just an ordinary human; leaving him here should be fine."
"But he has already seen us," Silver Wolf countered... Both she and Kafka were members of the Enigmata organization, belonging to the Hunters Guild. The entire group was listed on the Interstellar Peace Corporation's wanted list.
Listening to their conversation, a sense of impending danger suddenly arose in Bochang's heart.
"We aren't ruthless criminals; there's no need for extreme measures." Kafka gently gazed at the black-haired youth, "And you won't spread any false rumors, right?"
"Uh-huh!" Bochang nodded repeatedly.
Silver Wolf clarified, "What I meant is... merely wiping his memories. Never mind... if you're not willing to do it, that's fine too. The star over there is about to awaken, Kafka... go ahead, I'll handle this one."
Feeling somewhat embarrassed, Bochang realized not only could Silver Wolf detect lies but also possessed the ability to erase memories—capabilities never showcased in the original storyline. Thankfully, he had narrowly avoided trouble.
Upon hearing this, Kafka rose and approached another figure lying nearby—the game's protagonist from Star Rail.
Bochang recalled that in the game, players could choose between two protagonists: Stelle (a girl) or Caelus (a boy). His luck held out as he encountered Stelle instead of Caelus.
"Put on some clothes; your current state is indecent."
Silver Wolf casually tossed a set of black clothing over to cover the black-haired youth.
After struggling briefly, Bochang slowly sat up. He felt fatigued and his movements were sluggish; without the infusion of power from the Dragon Talisman moments ago, he likely wouldn't have been able to even perform this simple action.
Perhaps these were after-effects of crossing over.
Nearby, Kafka was speaking with Stelle.
"Your mind is currently in chaos; you don't know who you are or why you're here..."
Bochang recognized these lines from the game's storyline as he gradually dressed himself.
Upon closer inspection, he noticed that the outfit closely resembled Caelus's attire. From this angle... it almost looked like they were wearing matching couple outfits.
"Phew... much warmer now."
Bochang gently exhaled, feeling relieved.
Meanwhile...
Kafka and Stelle had nearly finished their conversation.
With one hand on her hip, Silver Wolf's tone carried impatience as she said, "How much longer do you need to talk? According to the script, the Astral Express team will arrive soon, and we shouldn't engage with them."
"I know, Silver Wolf, just a little more time—just a moment. You should focus on your own tasks for now," replied Kafka.
His gaze shifted back to Stelle.
Silver Wolf rolled her eyes adorably... She approached Bochang, placed her slender blue goggles over her eyes, and then produced a silvery-white pen, pointing it at him.
Standing less than 150 cm tall, Silver Wolf looked quite petite.
"What does she mean by this?" Bochang wondered, momentarily taken aback.
As he pondered, the silver-white pen emitted a bright flash.
