After the time rewind completed.
Nuo Ai’er returned to a few hours ago…
“Mmm… Elder Sister hehe”
“Ah”
Nuo Ai’er opened her eyes, and what greeted her was still that delicate and adorable face.
The pink-haired loli was hugging her tightly, refusing to leave like a clingy kitten.
Back to the moment she was resting on the sofa…
“Did Elder Sister behave at home?” Meimei’s voice was still sweet.
However, faced with Meimei’s question, Nuo Ai’er was now completely stiff, her mind blank.
The death of the last loop, the image that triggered the rewind, still lingered in her mind, refusing to fade.
That death was too explosive, and too sudden, leaving Nuo Ai’er’s thoughts extremely chaotic.
“Elder Sister…?” Meimei’s hand reached out familiarly, pinching Nuo Ai’er’s arm flesh.
In the last loop, Nuo Ai’er would have been startled and slapped her hand away.
But this time…
‘So… why did this happen’
Nuo Ai’er couldn’t understand at all why such a cute sister suddenly wanted to eat her, and then went straight for a zero-frame start, not even giving Nuo Ai’er reaction time.
Now, even when being pinched on the arm, Nuo Ai’er had no reaction.
At that moment, Meimei in her arms tilted her head, seeming a bit puzzled by her sister’s sluggishness.
But soon she resumed her sweet smile: “Oh, why is Elder Sister like a robot today? What a dummy meow~ I’ll go make dinner!”
‘So no matter what, I’m still a dummy huh’
Watching Meimei turn and walk toward the kitchen, Nuo Ai’er subconsciously grumbled.
Then she rubbed her head hard, forcing herself to calm down.
So the question is, why did she get eaten?
What condition triggered the death ending in the last loop?
“Hmm…”
Nuo Ai’er looked at the stairs leading to the second floor.
In the last loop, she had tried to go upstairs at this moment, only to be firmly grabbed by Meimei and warned not to run around.
Could it be… that because she tried to go to the second floor, Meimei’s favorability decreased, and so she was treated as food?
“No, I can’t take any more risks.” Nuo Ai’er gritted her teeth.
This time, she obediently stayed in the living room and didn’t go anywhere.
The subsequent development was almost identical to the last loop.
Meimei brought out a delicious dinner, they ate together, and after the meal, they played some mini-games.
Everything seemed so warm and harmonious.
“Elder Sister…” Meimei suddenly stopped the game, leaned in close to Nuo Ai’er, and a creepy, sinister smile appeared on her face.
“I’m not full yet.”
“No wait”
Nuo Ai’er’s heart instantly leaped to her throat.
“I want to eat Elder Sister, is that okay?”
“Ah?!”
Nuo Ai’er was dumbfounded.
This isn’t right, is it?
She had already obediently behaved and didn’t run around!
Before she could answer, Meimei’s eyes turned icy and hollow again, as if looking at a piece of meat.
She asked again: “I want to eat Elder Sister, is that okay?”
“No, no way!” Nuo Ai’er blurted out instinctively.
A firm refusal!
But the next second, Meimei became more terrifying in Nuo Ai’er’s eyes.
“Ha!”
The next moment, Meimei lunged forward, pouncing, and then it was the same situation as the last loop.
Nuo Ai’er’s vision went dark…

Nuo Ai’er: (°口°)
And so, Nuo Ai’er once again returned to the moment she was resting on the sofa.
“Did Elder Sister behave at home today?”
“Ah… AAAAAHH!”
Meimei’s sudden question made Nuo Ai’er jump in fright, and she instinctively pushed Meimei away.
“Huh?” Meimei was caught off guard by the push and blinked her pale red eyes curiously.
“Elder Sister, what’s wrong?” Meimei asked.
Nuo Ai’er didn’t dare answer, just stared in terror at the seemingly harmless loli in front of her.
What is going on…
Why no matter what Nuo Ai’er did, she always ended up in a bad ending.
Could it be that Nuo Ai’er was thinking wrong?
Come to think of it… this dungeon didn’t show any favorability-related stuff.
That is, there’s no favorability system, so Meimei’s behavior isn’t determined by favorability?
Then why does she want to eat her…speaking of which, Nuo Ai’er had encountered a similar situation in the little red riding hood instance, where she was eaten by Lang Waipo.
Could it be… that this so-called “Meimei” isn’t human at all, but some kind of monster wearing a human skin?
Like… a vampire or a succubus or something?
Just as Nuo Ai’er was lost in wild thoughts, Meimei suddenly smiled and said, “Alright, Elder Sister, it’s almost dinner time.”
Gulp.
Nuo Ai’er tried her best to calm down.
Anyway, this loop still had a meal and some playtime.
She had to use this time to find clues to break the situation.
…However, Nuo Ai’er didn’t expect that the plot this time would be completely different.
Meimei had just walked to the kitchen door when she suddenly stopped.
She didn’t put on a little apron and start cooking like in the previous two loops. Instead, she slowly turned around.
On that originally sweet and cute face, an extremely eerie smile now appeared.
Deep in her pupils, a bloody red light flickered, the corners of her mouth split into an exaggerated arc, and two sharp fangs were faintly visible.
“Today’s dinner…” Meimei’s voice became hoarse and seductive.
“Is Elder Sister~”
After saying that, she lunged fiercely, bat-like wings appearing behind her, and grabbed Nuo Ai’er.
“Wha—?!”
Nuo Ai’er was startled by this sudden turn of events. Before she could struggle, Meimei reached out and covered Nuo Ai’er’s face.
Then, Meimei mercilessly began to absorb Nuo Ai’er’s life energy through her palm.
‘Huh, what’s going on?!’
This strange power…
Nuo Ai’er only felt a cold and greedy force, through the palm placed on her face, frantically draining her vitality.
“Mmm… ugh…”
Nuo Ai’er tried desperately to push Meimei away, but Meimei’s strength was astonishing.
And as her life force was absorbed, Nuo Ai’er’s power dwindled until she couldn’t even resist.
Nuo Ai’er’s vision gradually blurred.
Meanwhile, Meimei’s palm slowly grew claws, cutting Nuo Ai’er’s cheeks, and even using Nuo Ai’er’s life force, her pink hair turned blood red.
At the same time, Nuo Ai’er clearly felt her body temperature dropping. Soon her face became pale as paper, her breathing weaker and weaker.
Finally, she completely lost consciousness…
