Chapter: 50. Wait for me!
“Queen Sister, there’s really no need to be that angry… um… but Princess Belis is very happy.”
“Huh? Just to clarify, I’m not acting like this because of you; I just wanted to experiment with new magic!”
“Okay, okay~ Queen Sister just wants to experiment with new magic, the new magic to protect her little sister~”
“You…! How dare you say that! If you keep talking, I’ll try out a new magic that can seal your mouth.”
On the dark path leading from the Capital City to the villa in the outskirts.
Princess Belis’s eyes sparkled with shining stars.
Part of it was due to the extraordinary magic released by the Queen Sister, the【Dark New Star】, which was too spectacular.
On the other hand—she felt the immense love coming from her Queen Sister!
Xue Fei walked in the middle, her arm being hugged by Belis. Xue Fei wildly swung her arms in an attempt to shake off the clingy little accessory, but unfortunately, it didn’t work very well.
Xue Fei was in a hurry to maintain some distance from her, not because she disliked her.
Mainly because… the pressure coming from the other side was quite great!
It might be due to the poor lighting on this quiet path, but on Xue Fei’s other side, Xiya’s expression appeared rather grim.
She tightly gripped the hilt of the Holy Sword at her waist, as if she would draw it out at any moment to showcase a flash of sword light!
Belis was not to be underestimated.
Don’t let her folding her wings and acting cute with Xue Fei fool you into thinking she had no fighting spirit; that faint dark purple light swirling at her fingertips indicated she was always ready for a bloody battle.
Regarding this matter.
If Xue Fei were to talk about it, she would only have one phrase to say to the two relatives beside her.
—Harmony is precious.
And, please don’t start a fight!
Sigh…
Xiya silently released her grip on the sword hilt, temporarily suppressing her overflowing hostility.
She wasn’t a three-year-old child; she understood that Xue Fei had just reconciled with her sister and needed such a period of intimacy. However…
But Belis, little sister! Can you please not turn to the side and press your chest against Xue Fei when you cling to her? Xue Fei has practically no chest; doing so is utterly meaningless except to make me uncomfortable!
After Xue Fei cutely sneezed, a soft sigh came from Xiya.
“I say, Xue Fei… that last magic you used was too extravagant… Luckily, you cast it towards the sky; otherwise, I feel… maybe half the Royal City would have been evaporated.”
“Hehe… of course! Just take a look at how prudent I am. Don’t worry, as long as it’s me casting the spell, you don’t have to worry about moderation…! Ah! You hit my head?!”
“Stop with the nonsense! The Gladiatorial Arena is gone! The entire five-hundred-year-old Komir Gladiatorial Arena has turned into steam; this incident is bound to go down in history!”
“What! Am I going to be famous?!!”
“No, you’re going to be infamous for all eternity!”
“How could…! No way, I need to find a way to restore my reputation.”
“Don’t make it worse… I’m afraid next time it will be the castle that disappears… Sigh, poor His Majesty the King, he probably won’t be able to eat for three days this time… By the way, I heard that when you showcased the resonance of the Holy Sword in the castle last time, the King didn’t eat for two days.”
“That’s just right, just in time for weight loss. I was wondering why that old king looked thinner a few days ago. He gained weight again; let’s make him lose some more.”
“……”
The two of them exchanged words, causing Belis to frown deeply.
She had previously found it strange… Queen Sister and the Hero shouldn’t have been together for long, right? But their dialogue flowed so naturally, with such perfect synergy; it couldn’t be said to be friendly, but rather like an old married couple.
You know how much harm such a scene can cause to a sis-con.
In any case, the sound with which Belis tightly hugged Xue Fei’s arm was quite heavy.
“By the way, I’ve always been curious… why is the Queen Sister mingling with the Hero of the kingdom… it could lead her astray.”
“Uh?”
Sister, you’ve raised a good question.
Thinking about it this way makes sense.
Xue Fei and Xiya temporarily paused their daily banter, the tall and short cuties exchanged glances to share their thoughts.
Well, there was no exchanging of ideas.
Xiya’s brain would crash whenever she thought; she couldn’t expect much from her.
So Xue Fei had no choice but to think for herself.
There was really no need to explain the truth to Belis; her life had long started anew, and the matters of the last life were secrets just between her and Xiya. It didn’t need to involve this life.
“Queen Sister?”
“Well, there’s no specific trigger; it’s just that after I sought refuge in the kingdom, Xiya didn’t mind me. She understood me, provided me with food and a place to live, and most importantly, she even gave me a lake full of fish. I mean, with someone like this, what reason do we have not to become good friends?”
No, no, no… Xiya thought, Xue Fei, what you’re saying won’t work.
Accepting you isn’t something to be taken for granted; anyhow, that kind of statement wouldn’t let Belis…
Uh…
She seems to be very shocked!
“Is it true…! Queen Sister, this person even gave you a lake to fish…?!”
“Yeah, Xiya is very generous; the whole lake of fish is mine.”
“Ugh… how could this be? The Hero is so bold… You… Aren’t you afraid the Queen Sister will flip the lake and drown your house?!”
“……”
Why does it sound like you’re not assuming hypothetically but that this actually happened…?
Xue Fei lightly cleared her throat, attempting to end this topic that wasn’t beneficial to her.
She looked up at the two differently colored moons hanging in the sky, gesturing for Belis to relax.
“Ahem, anyway, that’s how it is. Xiya is a kind person; there’s no need to be on guard. You only need to know this.”
“But… but Queen Sister…! Who would be nice to you for no reason… Maybe… maybe she’s infatuated with your beauty…!”
Ha, you say, my beauty?
Upon hearing this, Xue Fei instinctively looked down at the tips of her shoes.
It is well known that if one has enough curvature in the chest to block the view, it’s hard to see the tips of one’s shoes by looking down.
But Xue Fei could see so easily; based on this logic, she didn’t think she had any “beauty” to speak of.
But Xiya’s sudden action of avoiding eye contact made Belis suspicious of the situation…
Actually, isn’t it better to face the pain quickly rather than extend it?
Xue Fei stood on her toes, patted her half-grown little sister’s shoulder, and compassionately told her this fact.
“Alright, Belis… stop the wild guesses. In reality, both Xiya and I have already seen each other’s beauty; it’s not a big deal. You need to learn to be more open-minded; how can you be so narrow-minded? That will hinder your growth.”
“Xue Fei?!” Xiya quickly gripped the sword hilt again; she sensed that she might be in trouble!
Wait, that’s not right…
Xue Fei’s actions have always followed logic.
Could it be… that facing the facts directly is the way to mitigate risks?
I understand, Xue Fei.
Let me lend you a hand.
“It’s like this,” Xiya said with a flushed face, shrugging, “I… I already have a relationship with your sister that surpasses physical interaction, being honest with each other… almost every night we experience this, um…?!”
Xue Fei, why are you covering my mouth?!
Wasn’t this topic raised by you first?!
It was raised by me, but I didn’t want you to elaborate that much!
Belis wouldn’t listen to Xiya’s noisy chatter.
Throughout, her ears only picked up on the teachings from the Queen Sister.
Even so, some words cannot be ignored.
“I’m sorry, Queen Sister, I always act without caution… wait, what did you just say before scolding me?”
“That you’re narrow-minded and petty…?”
“No, Queen Sister, what I meant was that last thing you scolded me with.”
“Learn to be more open-minded, um, learn to be more open-minded.”
“No need, I can think for myself.”
Belis is a clever child, known for her exceptional reflexes and memory.
But this time, she closed her eyes and pondered deeply for several dozen seconds.
During this time, her body trembled with anger, and veins even popped up on her forehead.
Xue Fei discreetly took Xiya’s hand, attempting to tiptoe and make a quiet escape.
—Which bastard said that it’s better to face long pain than short pain!
Long pain clearly means boiling a frog in warm water, and short pain means a swift cut!
Unfortunately, Belis had already calmly drawn her sword.
A terrifying momentum erupted from the dense forest in the outskirts, the power nearly exceeding Belis’s limits…!
“Heh… hehehe… my Queen Sister… has been defiled by the golden-haired big-chested woman… it’s okay, Queen Sister… what’s this… as long as I kill her, Queen Sister will still be that pure Queen Sister… I will help you wash away the extra scent… Hero!! Draw your sword! One of us must die today; it has to be you… ugh…!”
They say that every villain needs another villain to grind against; similarly, a sister needs to temper a sister.
Xue Fei soared into the air and delivered a punch to Belis’s forehead, producing a crisp sound.
This move always returned the out-of-control Belis to rationality.
However, Belis’s aggrieved state wouldn’t be alleviated because of it!
The magical aura slowly dissipated, but Belis knelt on the ground, tears in her eyes, looking quite pitiful.
“Ugh… but Queen Sister… Queen Sister… we were born together! How could there be a big-chested woman swooping in?! You have to tell me this isn’t real!”
“No, it’s real; you have to face reality.”
“Ugh…!!”
Xiya sighed, holding her forehead; Xue Fei’s art of language, in the realm of comforting people, was no less than a mudslide.
Xue Fei could only say, Belis, this doesn’t count as a big-chested woman swooping in.
Indeed, you and I were born together, but Xiya and I have been together since my previous life—the one before I was born.
A slight edge over you.
Seeing her sister kneeling on the ground, heavily struck, on the verge of bursting into tears… Xue Fei scratched her head in deep thought.
Soon, she crouched down, cradled Belis’s tear-streaked face, tilted her head, and smiled gently.
“Queen Sister…?”
“It’s okay, Belis.”
“Could it be…?!”
“Mm, tomorrow night, I’ll tell you a secret, just the two of us.”
“！！
！”
Queen Sister’s implication…
Is it… hinting that we can break through the final barrier?
Extreme joy shattered the extreme sadness; for a moment, Belis felt she had found hope!
Xue Fei was going to tell her a secret.
—That she was actually raising fish in the underground reservoir of the Demon King’s Castle.
Belis, this is something I haven’t told anyone, prioritizing you, so please don’t be sad.
Belis was overjoyed, Xue Fei didn’t understand why she was so delighted, while the wooden-brained Xiya completely failed to grasp the meaning.
The joys and sorrows of people do not resonate, and this was vividly demonstrated at that moment.
And just then…
On the distant path, the quiet little road.
In a realm that shouldn’t have anyone approaching anymore, a clear and pleasant voice rushed in, panting.
“Miss Shaya… no, Princess Xue Fei… no, ah, no matter if it’s Princess Xue Fei or Miss Shaya! In any case, wait for me! Huff… huff… why are you walking so fast… puff…”
