If the jar of souls had the ability to speak, it would.
I may be a jar of souls, don't judge me by my small size. For I possess the capacity not only to contain this pool of water, but the volume of waterfalls!
Lilly kept murmuring, "Just a portion, just a portion!"
"Seriously, just one portion!"
Hurry up, hurry up!
The ghosts could not help but smirk.
Dear, do you know how much a portion is?
The jar of souls quivered, understanding that a useful jar of souls should know how to dig holes to store more items.
Inside the jar of souls's space, a natural pool and pits formed spontaneously.
All the water from the pool was poured into this pit and was swiftly filled it up.
Lilly sensed this and reluctantly stored the jar of souls, sealing it shut.
In that moment, she suddenly noticed Ivan staring at her with an open mouth.
The ghosts, too, gazed at her as if they had seen a ghost.
Lilly felt a pang of guilt and asked, "What's the matter?"
One of the cowardly ghost tried to be humorous, saying, "Um... it's nothing, but the pool unexpectedly shrank all of a sudden."
Ivan was standing in the water, and it reached up to his neck.
And now...
The extraordinary "ebb tide" of the pool prevented him from stepping on the water beneath his feet.
Lilly pretended to be perplexed and said, "Huh? That's strange, why did it shrink~"
"I was just taking a little back, you know, because the jar of souls is so small..."
The more she spoke, the quieter her voice became.
Ivan was speechless.
"Right."
Putting everything aside, it was time to make a swift exit.
Feeling guilty, Lilly hurriedly went ashore and ran away.
"Let's go, let's go find the soul flower!"
"Grab a piece and bring it home!"
Master is still radiant now, but we don't know when it will fade. And if it does fade, will it lose its power?
Therefore, Lilly must gather a sizable amount of soul flower for Pablo in advance!
Seizing the opportunity while the King of Cities was unaware, she quickly took action, extracting every ounce of her audacity... and dug up all the land in the underworld!
Ivan looked at the guilty, greedy, and somewhat cowardly Lilly, unable to contain his laughter.
How adorable!
Ivan followed suit, grabbing her hand, and they ran away together. He exclaimed, "Let's go, run! Someone's chasing after you!"
Lilly immediately grew anxious, clutching her jar of souls tightly.
Finally, Ivan could not hold back and burst into laughter. Accompanied by the pure laughter of the two children, the area near the pool quickly fell silent.
Perched atop a tall tree in the distance from the pool, a small black cat turned pale with shock. "Your Highness! She stole your pool of water! Meow!"
The majestic black cat crouched on the tree and spoke coldly, "I saw it."
His mouth twitched.
Is this what they call a portion?
They directly poured away half of the pond water!
What a wicked person!
But let it be, it wasn't theirs to begin with.
It belonged to someone else...
…
After climbing up from the bottom of the cliff, Lilly found herself in a different season. Behind her, the cliff bottom bloomed with vibrant flowers and fluttering petals, but ahead, everything turned gray. The branches and shrubs were covered in a layer of dullness.
The cowardly ghost remarked, "The pond at the bottom of the cliff must belong to someone important."
The harem spirit nodded and added, "The waterfall should be able to replenish the pond quickly, right? Let's hope that the owner doesn't realize that the water has been taken... Oh no, I mean poured into the jar of souls."
Lilly's guilt intensified.
Someone else's backyard?
