"Hmm, it looks like he brought it all on himself," Milim said from the side, making a sarcastic remark. In Milim's eyes, he gave all his treasures to someone because of their beauty.
So, even if he's hungry now, it's just his own doing.
"Ha! How would a short little girl like you understand the charm of mature Big Sisters?"
"My apologies, my mistake. You probably haven't even matured yet, so you wouldn't understand that Big Sisters with a generous bosom are the type both men and women like."
"And you're clearly a loli, aren't you?"
Hearing what Milim said, the old man was very displeased and immediately started to mock her.
"Shut up! Just shut up!"
El, standing beside him, had cold sweat all over his forehead and kept screaming in his heart, "It's over, this old man is definitely going to die."
These few sentences completely hit Milim's sore spot.
"Ha! What are you saying, old man!" Milim's face darkened, and a hint of red light seemed to flash in her eyes.
She then swung her fist and smashed into a nearby house, causing the entire house to collapse instantly.
Seeing this scene, the old man also had cold sweat all over his forehead and knelt on the ground very skillfully.
"I'm sorry, I was just talking nonsense. A beautiful girl like you is the type everyone likes."
"Weren't you arrogant just now? Who are you calling a loli?" Milim kicked the old man a few times, but it was clear she wasn't using force; she was just venting her anger.
"I'm very sorry, I meant to say you are too cute."
At this moment, El finally played her role and came before Milim: "Big Sister, they will all be citizens of Totto Land in the future. As a guardian, there's no need to get angry with them over such a small matter."
After venting her anger, Milim heard El's words and reluctantly nodded: "Then hurry up and take them to Totto Land. There's nothing interesting here, and I don't want to stay on this island at all."
Milim turned around angrily and ran back to the ship to sulk. El could only watch helplessly, eventually pulling up the old man who was kneeling on the ground.
"Milim didn't scare you, did she? She's actually just a bit childish and willful, but Milim is actually an incredibly good person."
The old man sat back down on the ground, his original fear long gone, and now even a hint of a smile appeared in his eyes.
"I can tell. If some pirates were told that by me, they would definitely kill me."
"But that adult only kicked me a few times, and she didn't even use force. She's truly a kind-hearted child!"
Kind-hearted? El's mind suddenly conjured up the pirate crew that Milim had sunk with a single shot.
Shaking her head, El pushed those thoughts out of her mind. Now it was time to get down to business.
Because of what just happened, the relationship between El and the old man had clearly taken a step closer, and the matters of Totto Land were naturally told to the old man.
After understanding Totto Land's various policies, the old man unhesitatingly chose to join Totto Land and led a large group of people to the pirate ship.
After all, where you live doesn't matter, so why not go to a place that makes life better?
The old man had lived on Roll Island for most of his life, and there was almost no one on the island he didn't know. With the old man's help, nearly half the people in the city chose to go to Totto Land.
The few ships Milim brought were not enough to accommodate so many people, but fortunately, El had already informed Charlotte Linlin in advance.
The support ships would arrive soon, and it didn't take long to bring all the people on Roll Island who were willing to leave to Spring Island.
This action naturally could not be hidden from the nation on Roll Island, but because the kingdom on Roll Island was a small nation, it did not have the courage or the strength to attack Totto Land.
In the end, they could only fiercely criticize Totto Land in the next day's newspaper for not abiding by the rules between nations.
Totto Land's act of snatching people also aroused the vigilance of other nations, and naturally, the name Totto Land spread throughout the seas!
However, because Totto Land was still a small nation, it did not attract the attention of the Great Pirates or the World Government. Even if they saw it, they would only treat it as a tea-time joke.
As many people came to Totto Land, the trend of Totto Land's development became even more rapid, with almost everyone having a job.
Having a job in this era was a good thing; having a job meant having wages, and having wages meant being able to buy food and eat until full.
And having work every day and getting paid was something unimaginable in other places.
Totto Land was currently in its peak development period, lacking people everywhere. Even with the people from Roll Island, it was impossible to fill all job positions.
At this moment, Charlotte Linlin kept pacing in her office. She really couldn't think of any good solutions now.
She originally thought she could continue to recruit people like on Roll Island, but after the newspaper incident, the small nations around Totto Land all knew there was a nation here that liked to snatch people.
Naturally, they were all heavily guarded against Totto Land, which also left Totto Land with no opportunity to bring more people to Totto Land.
"It's so troublesome! Why do we have to look for people? Can't they come by themselves?" Milim complained with a sigh.
These words suddenly seemed to open up Linlin's meridians.
"That's right, instead of us looking for people, why not let people come to me."
Linlin excitedly rushed in front of Milim, abruptly picked her up, and lifted her high.
"You're amazing, Milim!"
"Hmph! Of course, I'm very powerful, but… since you have such good taste, then buy me more small cakes, or else I won't let you hug me next time!" Although she didn't know why she was being praised, Milim accepted Linlin's praise without hesitation.
"No problem!" Linlin put down Milim and turned towards the den den mushi.
"Hello, is that El?"
El's voice came from the other side: "King Linlin, I'm here. Is there anything you need me to do?"
"Help me find a news agency and publicize our Totto Land's welcome to people of any race who want to survive, and that people will never feel hunger here."
El's voice became serious: "If we do that, we will attract the attention of many people, including those Great Pirates."
Charlotte Linlin lowered her head and smiled: "We have Milim, don't we?"
"She is the guardian of Totto Land."
These words instantly gave El a shot of reassurance. Milim's invincible image was already deeply ingrained in everyone's hearts.
Even a monster like Charlotte Linlin couldn't compare to Milim.
"Understood, I will immediately go and find a news agency."
As the den den mushi hung up, Linlin's gaze fell on Milim, who was quietly reading a manga on the sofa, and she couldn't help but smile.
"Milim, she's truly reassuring!"
