Chapter 21: Busy Girls
Although, through a series of events last night, Lonis and Elus had become “partners”.
But
Lonis quickly discovered… that her relationship with Elus was no different from before!
This black-hearted girl still bullied her. And because she understood her better, she bullied her even more.
“Oh, Lonis, look at you, you’re just like a cute little wife! Where’s the heroic spirit you had before?”
“Elus!”
But even if Lonis wanted to fight Elus, she couldn’t win.
The only thing she could do to resist was to stubbornly ignore this black-hearted girl.
However…
(Damn it, but if I sulk, won’t I just seem even more like a cute girl?)
Lonis felt completely at Elus’s mercy. Even if she willingly wanted to be a soft girl, she would still be teased and bullied by her.
“No, I have to find Elus’s weakness and counterattack.”
……
But how easy would it be to find Elus’s weakness?
Lonis knew that Elus cared about her, so if she were in mortal danger, Elus would definitely be worried.
But, but!
She wouldn’t die at all!
So protection lost its true meaning… In fact, if there was something like a bomb explosion and a suicide soldier was needed to disarm the fuse, it would definitely be Lonis who would do it.
Not for any reason, just because she wouldn’t die.
In other aspects, she couldn’t see any weaknesses in Elus… For example, snatching the black-haired girl’s treasured cookies, or scaring her with a ghost?
No, that wouldn’t succeed even in thought, right?
What’s more…
……
“Hehehe, have you turned red from being trained by me, so you’re preparing to counterattack?”
“Eh?”
“Lonis, I really appreciate your resistance, because the more you resist, the more exciting and rewarding it is for me to bully you~”
“Wuwu!”
Elus’s ability to read others’ moods was also very troublesome.
Although Elus couldn’t read people’s thoughts, because they had spent so much time together… generally speaking, even if Lonis thought of something, Elus would notice it immediately.
……
……
Just as Lonis was hesitating, there was a knock on the door.
“Classmate Elus, Classmate Lonis, I’m sorry, I messed things up.”
“Eh, Su Ling, what’s wrong?”
“There are people in line who have started fighting, what should we do!!!!”
……
……
Because today was the last day of the Autumn Arts Festival, there were an unusually large number of customers in line.
Coupled with the excellent reputation from the previous day, there were hundreds of people lined up in front of the Ancient Academy… one couldn’t tell how many hours it would take to truly enter and play.
And at this moment, something happened that surprised everyone.
Someone cut in line.
This wasn’t ordinary line-cutting, but line-cutting among acquaintances… Originally, a young couple had been waiting for 2 hours and were about to reach the front.
However, at this moment, several people whom the couple knew arrived. Seeing that the couple was about to get to the front, they wanted to stand right next to them.
This angered the people behind them, so someone behind them shouted directly, leaving Zhou Su Ling completely at a loss about what to do.
……
“Sigh, it was bound to happen. Su Ling, go and help me operate the mechanism, I’ll handle things here.”
“I’m sorry, Classmate Elus, I…”
“It’s okay, Su Ling has already helped a lot. It’s normal to be overwhelmed when there are so many people today.”
……
How to describe Elus’s temperament?
As long as she wasn’t dealing with Lonis, Elus was always very mature and rational, always able to grasp the key to the matter at once.
Her pace was not fast, but it was filled with an irresistible force.
“Dear guests, while we thank you for your support of the Ancient Academy, due to the large number of people today, we cannot provide service for queue holding, except for the elderly.”
“Uh?!”
The guests who wanted to cut in line seemed to want to say something, but at this moment, a nearby guest said, “Exactly, exactly, we told you no, why do you keep cutting in line!!!!”
However, facing this guest, Elus also shook her head and said, “This guest, what you are doing is also wrong.”
“Uh?”
“These guests simply don’t know the details of the queue, and in principle, they can’t be said to have made a mistake, so you shouldn’t shout at them.”
“Ah…?”
“Moreover, at Clearwater Academy, we prohibit loud noise.”
……
……
It didn’t even take 2 minutes for Elus to handle the situation.
Her crimson eyes swept slowly across everyone, and these guests were as if “intimidated”, obediently accepting Elus’s command.
Seeing this scene, Lonis was also a bit stunned.
She knew that if it were her, she definitely wouldn’t be able to do it as cleanly and decisively as Elus.
(In that case, Elus used to be a princess, so she’s naturally good at commanding others?)
Although a hero and a princess were a suitable combination.
However, the princesses of the Snow Kingdom were different from those of ordinary kingdoms… Compared to a mascot pampered in her chambers, Elus was more like a young girl leader who had to realize her social value.
She had to have a bit of aggression, be decisive, and not let others question her.
(Speaking of which… I don’t know Elus very well yet? Even if it’s not to find her weakness, shouldn’t I know more about Elus?)
Unlike Elus, who had always been observing her from the sidelines, even as a Hero, Lonis had never met Elus.
Let alone talking and communicating, so even though Lonis shamelessly called the black-haired girl her wife, their relationship was not intimate enough to be called wife.
(Hmm… so, my next task should be to shamelessly stay by Elus’s side and get to know her more deeply?)
……
Just as Lonis was thinking, behind her, Senior Yan’s voice came again:
“Classmate Elus, are you there?”
“Senior, I’m here.”
“There’s a small problem with the mechanism in the secret room here, and I need your cooperation to repair it.”
“I understand, I’ll be right over.”
Thus, Elus, having just finished her work here, immediately rushed to handle another task.
……
