I, holding a long sword in my hand, only know one move

Romance, liking, love, no matter which one has been analyzed yet, now there is a new addition of love at first sight - the information that happens in an instant. Maybe I will never be able to understand "heart" in my life.

When Cheng Rang felt a headache from the conversation between the two, he felt another line of sight peeking at him secretly.

That was the action Ke Long looked at subconsciously when he said the words "love at first sight".

Wait...it can't be right? !

Why did Ke Long subconsciously look at me when he said the word love at first sight?

Ke Long may have thought that she had covered it up well and not been noticed, but in the eyes of the mecha girls Hubi and Cheng Rang, such subtle behavior could no longer be obvious.

No, Ke Long's eyes secretly glanced at him again. Cheng Rang accurately captured her little movements this time, and their eyes collided in the air in shock.

A faint blush quickly spread from Ke Long's neck to her cheeks, and the girl's eyes met in mid-air and she avoided them as if fleeing.

Combining Rick's and his own complaints, Kelon is always the one who worries about him the most. Cheng Rang immediately understood what the situation was like.

"...."

The atmosphere suddenly fell silent and fell into an eerie silence.

"——Hey, Kelong, what strange knowledge are you trying to instill into this guy?"

Fortunately, Rick, who came back from doing things, broke the embarrassment and said to several people: "And Cheng, please don't teach her some strange things. It won't help her at all..."

"Really? I'm always helping in a serious way..."

"Easily shy, arrogant, and jealous...is this your impression of me?"

"Ahaha..." Cheng Rang tried to fool around with a silly smile.

Ke Long put his hands on his hips completely unconvinced and said: "How rude, brother, you are really rude! When did I instill strange things into Xiao Xiu?"

Rick smacked his lips, clasped his fingers and said, "You told her I like big breasts and asked her to hide two important pieces of food in her chest...Are you out of your mind?"

"I'm normal! How rude! She will become my sister-in-law sooner or later~ I can't let her feel bored in life——"

"Let's go. Idiots are contagious. Don't get too close to those two guys in the future." Rick took Hubby's hand and left. "In my opinion, these two idiots will be more suitable together. In this way, Kelon will No time to worry about weird questions.”

"...Intelligent Index.

...Is it contagious....? "

Hubie's eyes widened at the shocking new facts, while Rick took her hand and pulled her twice as if to urge her.

"Oh my! So my brother thinks that Cheng and I are a good match? Oh my! It's so embarrassing~~!"

As if being hit by these words, Ke Long twisted and pressed himself against Cheng Rang, but he pushed his head away from him.

"I'm sorry Ke Long, I said I have a family...please respect yourself."

"Ah ha ha ha, I was just joking!" Ke Long's cheerful expression seemed to have not changed much, but his movements stiffened for a moment, and then immediately returned to his original carefree look.

"Then the bath is finished, let's get ready for dinner~" Ke Long said with a smile and put his hands together.

"Well, thank you for your hard work."

"It's not hard, it's not hard, how can it be hard~ Hehe!"

Following Ke Long's brisk footsteps towards the room, Cheng Rang sighed silently in his heart.

Although I knew Ke Long's thoughts, I couldn't respond to it easily.

It’s not just the excuse that I already have someone I like, but the scene I will definitely experience when I leave here——

["No Game No Life: Zero" is an unbound world. When the player completes any main mission and returns, the world will be modified by the suppression force, erasing all relevant information about the player, that is, the memories of the residents of the original world who have been in contact with the player will be All will be cleared. 】

It's the same as the last world, but this time, I'm afraid I won't be able to find the ability to skip the system and clear my memory.

This is a world of constant war. All other races are hostile and cannot even reveal their identity as human beings. There is nothing that can help them fight against the world's suppression...

unless--

[Main Mission - The Only God: Obtain the "Star Cup" (optional)]

Cheng Rang silently looked away from the system task interface.

Will you become the only god in this world...?

Chapter 38: Watching the Sea

Does seizing the "Star Cup" and becoming the only god in this world mean that he can control the world and become the willpower of the world itself, thus canceling the penalty of erasing his memory?

--uncertain.

The system did not give an answer, and it was a bit too selfish to become the only God Queen just to leave some memories. Even if the war could be ended, Cheng Rang had no idea what to do next.

Cheng Rang has done a lot of things like saving the world, but he has no experience at all in "managing" the world.

If after obtaining the Star Cup, the subsequent development of this planet for thousands or tens of thousands of years needs to be managed by oneself, it would be really a headache.

[Main mission - Witness: Witness the birth of "heart" (in progress)] Mission progress: 31.4%

As time passes day by day, one-third of the main task "Witness", which is slowly increasing in progress, has been completed.

If we continue to calculate according to the time, this task will probably be completed in a while, right?

——————————

Three days have passed since the last time I returned to the settlement from the hole that cut off the water source.

After carving another mark on the wall of the room, Cheng Rang got out of bed, feeling that it was time to go back to Ai Xue'er to take a look.

A foodie girl who can eat five bags of food in one meal may be running out of food now.

But there is a little problem right now...

By the way, what do sea dwellers eat?

The last time I was able to feed was because I just picked up ten packs of fine fish feed from the system lottery machine, but those stocks were all left to Ai Xueer. Cheng Rang couldn't help but slap his forehead when he suddenly remembered this.

Before leaving, I forgot to ask her what she wanted to eat!

Although she knew that with Ai Xueer's character, she probably wouldn't blame herself for going empty-handed. Just seeing Cheng Rang again would make her smile happily, but it really couldn't be justified if he really went to visit her empty-handed.

If he was stared at by her pair of clean and beautiful amber eyes, Cheng Rang would probably just frown and become restless tormented by his own guilt.

——"Isn't there anything to eat?"

ah! Whenever I think of such a scene, I feel guilty!

Cheng Rang grabbed his messy hair and pushed out the door, heading straight to the beach.

However, there is also information for Cheng Rang's reference, and that is his disciple - Jet.

He is also a half-mermaid...

When using "also" to compare Jett and Asher, I always feel like something is wrong, but it seems that these are the opinions that can be taken into consideration the most.

Although Jet can move on land with a respirator, Ashley obviously cannot...because she has no legs at all.

Moreover, things like fish gills can't be seen on Ai Xue'er's body, but I don't rule out the possibility that there may be some. It's just that my understanding of Ai Xue'er is not deep enough.

But as for food - at least other fish in the sea are likely to be able to do it... right?

Because the last time Zabu took his gang to look for restaurants in the streets of HL, the first stop was a sashimi and sushi restaurant.

Jeter also hit back at Zab for his trouble-seeking behavior that wasn't even considered uneducated.

"What do you think fish living in the sea usually eat? Of course they are other creatures living in the sea."

Cheng Rang still clearly remembers that guy Zabu's defeated look.

The settlement is a little far away from the seaside, but the distance is relatively safe. Most of the salt in the settlement comes from here, and occasionally fish can be caught for food.

There are dedicated people here, so you don’t even need to bother Ke Long. During this period of getting along, you have already established a good relationship with most of the people in the settlement.

At this time today, he will definitely be here——

"Todd!"

In order to look similar to a normal person...Cheng Rang chose to come here on horseback this time. After all, although the distance was not far, it was too difficult to do it on foot.

From afar, he saw a figure bending down and busy beside the reef. Cheng Rang got off his horse and raised his hand to say hello.

The protruding rock wall above the head has become a natural haven for this bay. The blowing sea breeze also makes it possible for little black ash to fall in. The figures on the shore straightened up when they heard the sound.

"It's Cheng, why did you think of coming here today?"

"I suddenly want to eat fish, how about teaching me?" Cheng Rang tied the horse and walked towards Todd.

Because the black rain has just ended, the inventory is almost exhausted, and the original plan has basically been postponed until now.

"Hahaha, this is a good joke. If you want to eat, come and help. There is a lot of salt water to be transported today."

"Well, I met Evan and the others on the road who were carrying goods back." Cheng Rang rolled up his sleeves and took the fishing net handed over by Todd.

Making salt from seawater here is not as simple as in other places. Since the sun is basically invisible and the black ash falls all day long, it is basically impossible to develop large salt fields that rely on solar evaporation.

The simply concentrated brine is basically purified by manpower and then transported to the treatment site in the settlement for subsequent steps.

Cheng Rang, who had come to help before, was not a newbie. He and Todd were chatting while skillfully setting up fishing nets.

After making a few casual remarks, Cheng Rang asked seemingly unintentionally: "By the way, you have been in charge here for a while, haven't you seen a sea-dwelling species?"

"Sea-dwelling species?"

Todd seemed a little surprised by this topic. He cast down a section of fishing net, stopped and said, "Damn, there are no sea-dwelling species here!"

"I can't see them, why? Don't they all live in the sea?"

Cheng Rang was a little curious: "It stands to reason that we should have encountered a race that can only live in the sea."

"That's true, but no one knows whether there are a few survivors in this sea area."

Realizing that there was something wrong in Todd's words, Cheng Rang asked, "What happened?"

"Hey, if you want to help with work, you can't be lazy!"

At Todd's reminder, Cheng Rang quickly continued where he left off and signaled Todd, who seemed to know something, to continue speaking.

The two of them were bent over and busy at the edge of the reef, and Todd recounted what had happened before in a recalling tone.

"That was a few years ago, when Lord Rick was still a teenager...Ah, although he is still a teenager now——"

Todd's expression, which he wanted to smile to lighten the mood, froze.

"It was also the day Rick's hometown was destroyed."

...

That was the day when the dragon spirit named "Yanlong" fell.

The sky was dyed dark red due to the "collapse roar" before his final death. The astonishing heat, even if it was not a direct hit, would destroy the entire settlement just in the aftermath.

"Not to mention the ocean that was directly bombarded."

As Todd recounted what happened at that time, Cheng Rang gradually opened his eyes.

"You said... the ocean that was hit directly at that time... was evaporated?"

"Yes, not to mention how many marine species living in that shallow sea were killed. Although I didn't check the corpses, when I moved here later, five years have passed and I haven't seen them either. There are no traces of any sea-dwelling species in the remaining ocean."

Todd patted the fishing net in his hand and said with a smile: "So, you should understand why the fish that can be caught here are so small, right?"

Looking along the coast, the white lines of waves beat against the rocks, making a sound of waves that echoed in the rock valley behind them. Cheng Rang pursed his lips and smiled at Todd:

"I guess so...."

Chapter 39 A sudden confession

The sky gradually darkened and the temperature began to drop sharply. After a busy day, the two finally put away the fishing nets they had dropped for the last time.

Working from morning to night, we only harvested two buckets of sea fish, the average size of which was no more than the size of a palm. It is far from enough to rely on these to supply a settlement of 2,000 people. Most of the food sources still rely on the cultivation of crops and the production of dairy products from livestock.

"Thank you for your hard work. It's rare that you can chat with me for a whole day today. Take these."

Todd used a net bag to pick out a few larger fish and handed them to Cheng Rang. This pick took about half of the bucket.

"Thank you." Cheng Rang was not polite, because he would always get inexplicably angry when he met Todd.

"You deserve this, I
