Chapter 9 Meeting
……
……
Lonis was seeing Elus like this for the first time.
The quiet black-haired little loli sat on a wooden chair by the window, as tranquil as a painted scroll woven from art.
But from the corner of her eye, a crystal clear tear flowed out, shining like a brilliant diamond under the setting sun.
“Lonis?”
Seeing Lonis run over, Elus’s expression first showed a hint of shock.
As if she couldn’t believe this was reality, but soon, she frowned and cried, “Hmph, Lonis… you still dare to know how to come back.”
“Huh?”
Lonis was startled, and suddenly realized a possibility.
Could it be that Elus was crying because she felt self-reproach?
This possibility stunned Lonis. She only wanted to scare Elus a little, but she never expected her to cry…
Looking at the black-haired little loli like this, Lonis realized that Elus was also a girl.
She was also a sensitive and soft existence in her heart. Although she bullied herself all day, she was also someone who deserved care. Therefore, her joke seemed a bit too much.
Lonis wanted to run forward, to get to Elus’s side, but…
“Hmph, you’re not allowed to come over.”
“Huh?!”
Although Lonis wanted to get to Elus’s side, Elus instantly pressed the “alarm switch” like a little loli facing a pervert.
A sudden vibration emerged from her skirt, and Lonis’s legs suddenly went soft, and she knelt down.
“I told you, don’t come over, stay away from me.”
Elus didn’t seem to realize her eyes were red, her crystal clear pupils simply “glaring” at Lonis, and her mouth was clenched in anger.
“Elus…”
“Hmph, didn’t you want to escape from me? Then I’ll grant your wish!”
Seeing Lonis crawling on the ground, but still wanting to crawl towards her, Elus activated the switch again.
This time, it wasn’t just mechanical attacks, even electric current magic attacks were generated… The vibrations spread throughout her body, making Lonis almost collapse on the ground to avoid embarrassment.
However,
(No, I can’t! I m-must advance.)
Lonis’s mind had already gone stiff, and under the intense impact, she could barely even think. But her instincts told her that she had to keep moving forward.
Because originally, she had planned this action tonight to make Elus happy.
And later, she fainted because of a toy, which was her own fault… Elus waited for a long time, which was also her mistake.
So, she had to go!
Even if she had to crawl, she would crawl to Elus’s feet.
……
And it seemed she didn’t expect Lonis to have such great perseverance.
Elus, sitting by the window, was startled, and her expression was a little at a loss.
“Lo, Lonis, you pervert, what do you want to do?”
“Uh…”
“Don’t you like my orders? Why, still…”
Then, the black-haired little loli stood up.
Her fists were clenched, and her eyes glared fiercely at Lonis…
But looking into these eyes, Lonis actually felt a little relieved.
Because she could see anger towards herself in Elus’s eyes… This meant that the girl probably valued and cared about her, but was a little at a loss due to her pride.
And now, it was time for her, as a boy, to be shameless!!!
So, Lonis knelt on the side and said:
“Master Elus, I’m sorry!”
“Ah?”
“I originally planned it, but I messed it up.”
——————
“Classmate Elus, we’re back~~ This is the silly plush pillow I bought, a gift for you… Huh, what’s going on?”
“Classmate Elus, Classmate Lonis?”
A moment later, everyone who received the signal returned by lifeboat… They had indeed gone to trade with nearby merchant ships, but at the same time, they had also bought many small gifts.
There were gifts for Elus, gifts for Lonis, and of course, decorations for the entire ship. For example, Su Ling Zhou bought a lot of plush toys, and even a pair of silver and black girl dolls.
Mi Xue Zhou and Senior Yan bought a lot of delicious food, planning to cook hot pot and enjoy it with everyone tonight.
……
……
However, no one expected that when everyone returned, the two of them were already dripping wet.
It was as if they were wearing clothes fresh out of a sauna; the skin of both Lonis and Elus was tightly clinging to their bodies.
Elus, of course, was due to crying when she was feeling lost earlier.
As for Lonis?
It was clearly the result of accidentally leaking some liquid when she apologized later.
Realizing this, Lonis’s cheeks turned even redder… Although she had successfully explained the situation to Elus, she couldn’t help but apologize to Elus with her body.
The black-haired little loli treated herself as a plush pillow, pushed her down, and squeezed her for a long time before letting go.
And even so, she still seemed unsatisfied, even glaring at herself and saying angrily:
“Hmph, Lonis… don’t think this matter is over.”
“Wuwu…”
“When we get back to the bedroom tonight, you’ll have to wait to be bullied by me.”
However, compared to her usual threats, Elus at this moment seemed a bit “soft,” incredibly cute.
……
……
Looking at the two wet figures, Su Ling and Senior Yan were a little at a loss, but Mi Xue Zhou smiled slyly and said:
“It seems we’ve returned at just the right time.”
“Hmph, I haven’t settled accounts with you yet. Why did you leave without saying a word.”
“Hehe, wasn’t it to buy some things for later? Since a merchant ship finally passed by, we naturally had to buy more.”
“Oh, so what did you buy? Just to be clear, if it’s only food, it’s not acceptable.”
Elus crossed her arms, looking quite “spoiled.”
“Of course, it’s not just food for tonight. We’re going on a long voyage later, so we have to prepare more. And not only that, junior Elus, look at this banner.”
“Banner?”
“Mm…”
Senior Mi Xue Zhou and Senior Isumi worked together to unfurl a huge banner.
And the words written on it stunned both Elus and Lonis…
……
“Happy 120th Birthday Festival to Classmate Elus~~~~”
