System's POV

Chapter 671: First Outing After Arriving At The Sirius Continent



"Why are you two stopping me?" Cynthia asked. "I just plan to wake Zion."

"T-There's no need for you to do that, Mother," Shana replied anxiously. "Sister, why don't you wake Zion up instead?"

"T-That's a good idea!" Rianna didn't even hesitate before rushing to Thirteen's room.

They had once stumbled upon Thirteen and Erica sleeping together in the past. If her mother were to see such a scene, things would become troublesome, which was something that they didn't want to happen.

In order to prevent a scandal from happening, the two sisters worked together to stop their mother from seeing things she shouldn't see.

Cynthia found the actions of her two daughters quite baffling. But Rianna had already gone ahead to wake Thirteen up, so she no longer insisted on coming personally. They'd just meet on the dining table, where she'd have breakfast with the young generation.

When Rianna entered the room, a sigh of relief escaped her lips when he saw that it was only Sherry lying beside the teenage boy.

The two were hugging each other, and there didn't seem to be any problem with their posture. Sherry's pajamas were also properly buttoned, so both of them were safe.

In the eyes of others, the two of them looked like siblings who had a very close relationship.

The only difference was that the teenage boy had black hair, while the teenage girl had blonde hair.

After a brief pause, Rianna lightly shook Zion's and Sherry's body, waking them up.

"Rise and shine," Rianna said. "Get up, so we can have breakfast together."

Thirteen and Sherry stirred at the same time before looking at the person who woke them up. "What are the two of you looking at?" Rianna asked, crossing her arms over her chest. "You should thank me because my mom was planning to personally come wake you up.

"Just imagine if the one sleeping beside Zion is Erica instead of you, Sherry. Just thinking about the consequences is enough to make the hairs on the back of my head stand on end. You better talk to Erica later and tell her not to visit your room at night. Got it?"

"Mmm." Thirteen hummed before propping himself up from the bed.

He then raised his arms to do a bit of stretching.

Soon, a black snake crawled on his body, and coiled herself on his neck, flicking her tongue at the teenage boy's cheek.

"Good morning, Tiona," Thirteen said before kissing the snake's head.

He then glanced at Sherry, who was right beside him.

"Good morning, Sherry."

"Good morning, Zion."

"Dress up, so we can eat breakfast together."

"Un."

Sherry obeyed and left to return to her own room to change her clothes.

Rianna also left, so Thirteen could get changed as well.

Half an hour later, everyone gathered in the dining room to have breakfast.

Thirteen placed two eggs and a few pieces of bacon on his plate and ate silently.

Since they were in the Summer's Residence, he decided to not do any training for the time being. He wanted the others to relax before the tournament officially started.

Also, since he was in a place where he was a guest, the things he could do were very limited.

After weighing the pros and cons, he decided that it would be best to spend his first day on the Sirius Continent in a relaxed manner.

'Should I visit the Headquarters to check on Cristopher and the others?' Thirteen thought. 'Or should I ask Shana or Rianna to take us to the popular attractions of the city?'

This was Thirteen's first time in the Sirius Continent, and truth be told, he was a little curious about the things that it had to offer.

Just as he was thinking about these things, Derek suddenly proposed an idea.

"Can we visit clubs tonight?" Derek asked. "I heard that nightlife in Sirius Continent is pretty good."

Derek didn't dare to visit these places in the Cygni Continent because his face was well-known to the people.

However, everyone was present. If he were to go to a club with Zion and the other members of the Hero Party, they could all suffer the consequences together!

The Swordsman thought that this was a brilliant idea. Not only would he be able to have fun, but he would also be able to do it with his comrades.

"Clubs?" Cynthia frowned. While she didn't think that going to such places was a bad thing, she didn't allow her daughters to visit them either.

Shana had just turned sixteen, while Rianna was nineteen years old. While her eldest daughter could legally come to places like that now, her youngest was still not allowed to enter such premises.

"What are you thinking about, you blockhead?!" Erica commented from the side. "All of us are still underage. Do you really think that we'll be able to even pass through the door of the club?"

The Sorceress had just turned seventeen, and the others were of similar age to her. Since the legal age in the World of Pangea was eighteen, they were still not allowed to visit such places.

"Hear me out," Derek raised his hand. "Although we are still underage, we have Master with us. With him around, I'm sure we will be able to manage."

Erica almost cast a magic bullet to hit the Swordsman's face.

Zion was only thirteen years old, making him the youngest in their group aside from Sherry. Just thinking about the black propaganda that would spread when someone saw the Supreme Commander of the Alliance inside the club was enough for Erica to grit her teeth in frustration.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"Erica is right," Roland, who had always been a righteous person, spoke up. "We're still too young for this. Also, even if we manage to enter with Zion's help, it might reflect badly on our

image."

Cynthia nodded in agreement. For people like her, the reputation was important.

Derek sighed and no longer insisted on going to the club.

However, as if thinking that going outside to have an activity was a good thing, Sherry

decided to propose an idea.

"How about we go and visit the zoo?" Sherry asked.

Thirteen smiled because this proposal didn't sound so bad, and it fit Sherry's character.

"Have you been to a zoo before?" Thirteen asked.

"No," Erica replied. "All the Zoos in the Cygni Continent were closed when the evacuation order was given. Dimensional Gates often appear inside cities, so everyone had to stay

indoors most of the time."

Erica also didn't have the opportunity to visit the zoo because her family was very poor several years ago. Now that she had managed to earn a bit of fame and had a rather large salary from the Central Government, her family's life had changed for the better.

Even so, she still never got an opportunity to visit the Zoo because she was always busy most

of the time.

"Let's go to the zoo," Erica supported Sherry's idea. "That's fine, right?"

The Sorceress gazed at Zion because she knew that even if the others didn't approve of it, they

would change their mind if the teenage boy supported the idea.

Seeing Sherry's and Erica's pleading gazes as if they were little children, Thirteen couldn't

help but smile faintly.

"Okay, the three of us can go." Thirteen nodded.

"Hey! You don't plan on taking us with you?" Rianna complained.

"Oh, sorry. I said it wrongly," Thirteen replied. "What I meant to say is that we should all go

together."

"Hmph! That's better." Erica smirked.

After getting everyone's agreement, the group prepared their first outing after arriving at the

Sirius Continent.

To their surprise, even Cynthia decided to join their group, making Rianna and Shana feel like

she was up to no good!
