Chapter: Chapter 118
“Um… I can explain,” Bai Ling said quietly in the darkness, her big eyes staring.
Leticia lay beside her, at least a few dozen centimeters apart. If Bai Ling’s bed weren’t so small, she probably would have moved even further away.
There was no way around it, the things Bai Ling had uncovered on her computer were simply not enough to make Leticia feel at ease. This Bai Ling, so clean on the surface, was actually such a filthy person. You really can’t judge a book by its cover.
“Don’t explain, I don’t want to hear it. I only know that you have ill intentions towards me.” Leticia turned over, not wanting to talk to the person beside her who was constantly thinking about how to conquer her.
Although they were sleeping in the same bed now, their hearts were separate, and the distance between them was not small.
“I just want to know how to make you less hostile towards me,” Bai Ling said weakly.
So most of your browsing history is about how to make a petite girlfriend comfortable?!
Never mind the petite part, Leticia admitted that she was a bit short, but was their relationship progressing that… rapidly?
Bai Ling was actually looking up techniques for intimacy in bed. What did she want to do?
Was she really trying to get on the bus before getting a ticket?
“I feel like I’m doing well. Why don’t you want to accept me?”
“Besides your face and your body, what else are you good at?” Leticia chuckled. “Your EQ, which is lower than the Earth’s mantle? Or your brain, filled with yellow waste?”
“Aren’t those two enough?” Bai Ling edged closer to Leticia, gently turning Leticia’s body back with her hand. “I’m very beautiful.”
Bai Ling’s words almost made Leticia spit out blood in anger. Yes, you are beautiful, the most beautiful in the world, but it sounds so wrong when you say you’re beautiful.
“I’ve never seen such a shameless bastard as you.”
“Well, now you have?” Bai Ling gritted her teeth. It had taken her so long to trick Leticia into bed. If she didn’t make a move, wouldn’t that be a huge loss?
So, without waiting for Leticia’s consent, she opened her arms and hugged Leticia.
Shameless or not, she was that kind of shameless girl.
Moreover, Bai Ling believed that Leticia wouldn’t do anything drastic. Deep down, this girl wasn’t resistant to close contact with a beautiful girl like herself.
Even though Leticia had been outwardly stating that there was absolutely no possibility between them and that she would never be tempted by Bai Ling’s beauty, was that really the case?
Leticia had clearly grown accustomed to Bai Ling’s presence, accustomed to this white-haired girl visiting from time to time, and accustomed to their occasional physical contact.
The girl didn’t dislike Bai Ling’s approach.
Yes, she didn’t dislike it.
For example, now, although Leticia was struggling, the strength was unexpectedly small. It even made Bai Ling think that Leticia was coyly resisting.
“I just want to hold you. Don’t worry, I won’t do anything else without your permission,” Bai Ling whispered softly in Leticia’s ear.
You still want to do other things?!
I haven’t even done those things myself!
Miss Leticia, who was quite pure-hearted, roared inwardly. Although she knew what those things were and had seen some related content on some strange websites, she had never actually done them.
There was no other way. She had to maintain her image. She couldn’t possibly… when Xue’er was home…
As the master, she had to maintain a tall image in front of her maid.
“I feel like I’ve suffered a huge loss this time,” Leticia slowly calmed down. Frankly speaking, being held by Bai Ling felt quite good.
It was warm, and the faint scent unique to girls wafted under her nose, giving Leticia a sense of security.
If this continued, perhaps one day she would truly become addicted to this warm embrace.
“Then you’ll hold me tomorrow night?”
“Isn’t that still a win for you?” If Bai Ling could just shut her mouth, Leticia felt her mood would improve significantly. “Stop talking and go to sleep.”
“Aren’t you going to resist?” Bai Ling was surprised by Leticia’s obedience. She thought Leticia would resist for longer.
To her surprise, it ended with just a few symbolic struggles in her arms.
How should she put it, it left Bai Ling feeling a little unsatisfied.
When the tsundere is no longer so tsundere, it always gives a sense of disappointment.
It seemed like after lying down, Leticia’s tsundere nature was less obvious. Was lying in bed the key to Leticia’s tsundere attitude?
Bai Ling’s thoughts began to wander. When she came back to her senses, the girl beside her had already closed her eyes.
Leticia had been very sleepy these past few days, and in Bai Ling’s embrace, the time it took for her to fall asleep became even shorter.
Looking at the obedient girl lying in her arms, the corners of Bai Ling’s mouth curved slightly. This was good, wasn’t it?
“Good night, sweet dreams.”
What Bai Ling didn’t know was that Leticia hadn’t fallen asleep as she expected. On the contrary, her consciousness entered a gray and hazy space.
“Strange, where is this?” Leticia looked down at her semi-transparent body, somewhat confused.
Was she dreaming? Or had she been ambushed?
“I’m sorry for dragging you here without your consent. If you don’t mind, please come over here, and I will answer your questions.” In the dim space, a warm voice sounded, and a beam of light purple light appeared in the distance, as if guiding Leticia.
“Who are you?” Leticia didn’t act blindly but engaged in a cautious conversation with the unknown entity.
“Me? Just a sinner who made a mistake and is imprisoned in this realm.”
This description immediately made Leticia guess the speaker’s identity. Ah, not a person, but a god.
“You are… a god?”
“Yes, an imprisoned god.” The voice did not deny it. “You seem to have met my kin. I imagine it wasn’t a pleasant experience.”
“It wasn’t pleasant indeed. That’s why I have quite a bit of animosity towards you. Or are you trying to tell me that was just an isolated incident?”
“I don’t want to deceive you. Most of my kin are like that, and so was I in the past.” The voice said with a hint of emotion. “After all, we are innately powerful, the original masters of this world.”
“But you feel different from the god I met before.” Leticia took a step forward, walking towards the purple light.
This was dangerous, she knew.
Perhaps this god was just acting, and the previous words were intended to make her let down her guard. After luring her to that place, she would reveal her fangs and swallow Leticia, this little white rabbit, whole.
Hmm, that adjective seems a bit strange.
In any case, it wouldn’t be a good outcome.
But Leticia felt that she didn’t have many better options right now. Since this god could pull her consciousness to this place without anyone noticing, if she truly harbored ill intentions, Leticia probably couldn’t escape.
Consciousness was different from the body. Leticia was confident that her consciousness strength ranked among the best in this world, perhaps even surpassing Bai Ling.
But even with such a powerful consciousness, she still didn’t know how she was brought here.
The methods of gods were truly strange and unpredictable.
“Thank you for your trust.” After walking for about a few minutes, Leticia arrived in front of the gate of a deserted manor. Inside the manor, a girl dressed like a noble lady, holding a black parasol, was smiling at her.
The moment she saw the girl, Leticia instinctively let down her guard. However, after a few breaths, she picked her guard back up.
That was close, she almost fell for this guy’s trick.
“Is this your doing?” Leticia asked from outside the gate.
During her time in the Demon Realm, she had read the prophecy book owned by the demon race from cover to cover. That thin little book contained a lot of information.
The most important piece of information was that gods were sealed in the divine realm, and their range of activity would be limited to a materialized space, such as the clock tower of the Mist God she encountered earlier, or the manor before her now.
Of course, no one knew whether this manor was a fake creation intentionally made by this god to make someone like Leticia, who knew some things, let down her guard.
“I am truly sorry, but this is beyond my control.” The girl nodded slightly. To be honest, she was extremely polite.
So polite that Leticia almost doubted if she and the arrogant god she met before were of the same species.
“Dragging you here was my own decision. I want to ask for your help for that poor girl.”
“Lin Qingyu?” Leticia blurted out a name.
The poor girl who could be associated with her seemed to be only Lin Qingyu.
She didn’t expect that what this half-elf girl stole from the elven tribe was such explosive stuff – a divine artifact, a divine artifact that housed a god’s consciousness.
“Yes, I’ve been trying to help her overcome her trauma, but I found that simply avoiding it won’t solve anything. Only by confronting the past can she be reborn from the ashes. Otherwise, she will live in the shadow of the past forever.” The girl sighed, her emerald green eyes filled with worry.
More of these clichés. Leticia rubbed her temples. She kept talking about a dark past, but why didn’t she tell her what that dark past was?
Should she guess all by herself?
What half-elf didn’t have a dark past? These mixed-bloods, neither fully human nor fully elf, how could they have a happy childhood?
Bul lying, beatings, discrimination, were everywhere.
Don’t ask Leticia how she knew these things. She used to be a diligent demon king and had to understand the basic situation of her enemies.
“Can you tell me specifically what her past was like?”
“I’m afraid I cannot.” The girl shook her head, her short, light purple hair swaying with the movement. “I promised her that I would never reveal her secrets to anyone.”
“But I’m not some kind of confidante. How can I make her confront her past?” Leticia was dumbfounded. Asking for her help, fine, no problem.
But you have to tell her how to help.
If you don’t tell her the original story, are you just playing games?
“I know this is difficult, so I can’t demand that you do it. This is just a request, a request from a god who has made a mistake.” The girl lowered her eyes, her mood somewhat dispirited.
Looking at such a god, Leticia couldn’t help but feel a bit soft-hearted. “Alright, I’ll do my best.”
“Thank you for your understanding.” Hearing Leticia’s reply, the girl immediately became happy. She closed the umbrella in her hand and placed it on the empty ground in front of the gate. “I cannot bring my belongings out of this gate. If you trust me, you can take this umbrella after I leave.”
“If you want to leave, you just need to silently think, ‘Wake up’.”
After saying these words, the girl lifted the hem of her skirt and gave Leticia a ladylike bow before turning and walking into the manor.
She understood Leticia’s wariness of gods, so after completing the necessary tasks, she left without any lingering.
“Hey, I don’t even know who you are!”
The goddess, surprised, turned her head. She sensed an unfamiliar life form appearing in her prison.
Leticia had already opened the gate and was standing inside the manor, holding the parasol the girl had left behind, her eyes fixed on the goddess.
Is this what it feels like to be trusted?
A faint smile appeared on the girl’s face. As a god, she was very beautiful when she smiled. “Flóra, the God of Hundred Desires.”
“That doesn’t sound like a good god.” Leticia said to Flóra with a smile. She thought this guy’s divine name would be more pleasant to hear, but it turned out to be a god of desire.
“So it’s ‘Hundred Faces’, isn’t it?” Flóra pointed to her face. “I have a hundred faces, and no one knows which one is the real me. Perhaps I was deceiving you just now?”
“I believe my intuition. You’re not a bad god.” Leticia admitted she had taken a gamble just now, but the result was pleasing. She had won.
This young goddess was indeed different from the Mist God. She was communicative and had a gentler disposition.
She didn’t seem like a god, but more like an ordinary person in everyday life.
“Besides that child, you are the first person to say, ‘I believe you’ to me.” Flóra chuckled. “The gods are very happy now. If you have any requests, you can make them.”
“I don’t have any requests, I just want to ask you a question: what exactly are gods?”
…
“Good morning… Can you stop hugging me so tightly? It’s so hot, you know?” The next morning, the golden sunlight woke Leticia from her sleep. She opened her eyes to see a pair of beautiful crimson eyes.
Bai Ling had woken up much earlier. While Leticia was still sleeping, she had been quietly holding Leticia, admiring her sleeping face.
Compared to the last time they slept together, Bai Ling seemed much more energetic today. It seemed she hadn’t lost sleep due to excessive excitement like before.
That’s really bad news, Leticia thought to herself.
In her dream, she had talked with Flóra for a long time. She hadn’t received much information from the gentle goddess. Many important matters, Flóra said she couldn’t speak of.
“After all, I am a god. There are many things I cannot say or do.”
Gods were bound by rules. This was the biggest achievement Leticia gained from this trip. Defeating a god head-on was extremely difficult, but finding the corresponding method would make defeating a god very ‘easy’.
“You look beautiful when you sleep.” Bai Ling didn’t know what Leticia had experienced last night. She thought Leticia was simply tired and wanted to rest.
Little did she know, her body was being held, but her soul had gone elsewhere to meet another girl.
This might also be a form of cuckolding.
“Does that need you to tell me?” Leticia remained indifferent to Bai Ling’s flattery. She gently pushed Bai Ling. “Get off me, I need to get up.”
Then she was pleasantly surprised to find that the discomfort in her body had greatly reduced. Although she still felt some weakness, it was much better compared to the previous two days when she couldn’t even walk steadily.
Was it her own powerful body? Or was it a small gift from Flóra?
Leticia didn’t know and didn’t bother to think about it. It wasn’t a bad thing anyway.
“You can actually sleep a little longer.” Bai Ling was a little reluctant. She wanted to hold her for a while longer.
Leticia gave Bai Ling a completely dismissive eye-roll at her suggestion. “Don’t push your luck. Letting you hold me while I sleep is my biggest concession. Hurry up and let go.”
She wasn’t a pig that slept that long every day. Even if she needed to sleep that long, she wouldn’t want to sleep in Bai Ling’s arms.
It wasn’t that sleeping was uncomfortable, quite the opposite. Sleeping in Bai Ling’s arms was very comfortable, even making Leticia feel like it wouldn’t be bad to sleep here forever.
But she had pride.
Sleeping here forever would mean she had succumbed to Bai Ling.
Sleeping once in a while, Leticia could still convince herself it was a transaction with no other emotions involved. But if it happened every day, Leticia would really start to doubt if she had been mesmerized by beauty.
A femme fatale, Bai Ling was a complete femme fatale.
Sleeping was not just sleeping; this was Leticia’s firm determination not to yield to beauty!
“Oh.” Bai Ling reluctantly released her arms, freeing Leticia from her embrace. “What are your plans for today?”
“Are you developing Alzheimer’s?” Leticia sat on the edge of the bed, saying to Bai Ling with some impatience. “I’m going to talk to Lin Qingyu.”
“I thought you would stall for a few days…”
“I want to stall too, but is this a situation where stalling is appropriate?” The elves could attack at any moment. Although she didn’t need to worry about safety with Bai Ling here, it was still troublesome.
Leticia’s plan was to slip away immediately if she couldn’t persuade Lin Qingyu and return to the Demon Realm to wait for things to settle down here.
Whether Lin Qingyu lived or died was irrelevant to her. She had only met this half-elf girl a few times; she was a stranger. Even if this girl was captured by the elves right in front of Leticia, she wouldn’t bat an eye.
As for Flóra’s request… logically speaking, if Lin Qingyu refused to communicate, would Leticia have to resort to soul-searching and forcibly extract Lin Qingyu’s memories?
After doing that, Lin Qingyu wouldn’t need to be captured by the elves; she could just move into a mental hospital.
Putting on her slippers, Leticia decided to go home first to wash up and have breakfast.
Passing through the living room, she noticed that Bai Ya was not there, which was quite surprising. Did this little girl wake up so early on weekends?
When she reached the main entrance, her shoes were there, but her slippers were not.
Still sleeping?
But there was no trace of a third person here.
That’s really strange.
So, where did Bai Ya go?
The answer was simple: Bai Ya had gone to Leticia’s house.
Seeing her haggard sister in the dining room and the energetic Bai Ya, Leticia’s intelligent little brain momentarily went into shock.
Uh, what’s going on?
Bai Ya was still in her pajamas. Could it be that she slept here last night?
“Good morning, Qianqian sister.” The little girl happily greeted Leticia.
“Mm, good morning.” Leticia replied, simultaneously bombarding Kira with inquiring glances about what on earth was going on.
“Miss Ya rested in your room last night, Your Majesty.” Xue’er whispered into Leticia’s ear. “His Highness didn’t seem to have a good rest last night.”
Even a fool could see that.
Not everyone could sleep as soundly as Leticia in the arms of someone they didn’t know very well.
“You guys eat first, I’m going to wash my face and change my clothes.”
Since she was going to talk to Lin Qingyu later, Leticia specifically asked Xue’er to prepare a decent outfit for her. She couldn’t go be a confidante in her pajamas, could she?
A black and white two-tone dress, with the hem almost covering her ankles, revealing only her feet covered in white stockings. Shamefully, Leticia had gradually grown accustomed to wearing long stockings, although she was also quite accustomed to them a few years ago.
“You look very pretty.” Bai Ya gave Leticia a thumbs-up.
“I feel like it’s a bit troublesome to wear.” Leticia sat at the dining table with a helpless expression. This dress looked simple, but it was actually quite complicated to wear. “Did Xiaoya sleep with Xiaoqi yesterday?”
“Yes, yes! Xiaoqi’s reaction was super cute. Her face was all red, like a big apple.” Bai Ya excitedly said to Leticia.
Hearing Bai Ya’s words, Kira covered her face with her hands.
It’s over. Sister knows about her embarrassing behavior.
“Oh right, right, Qianqian sister, you slept with your sister yesterday, didn’t you? Did anything happen at night? Did it? Did it?” As it turned out, Bai Ya and Bai Ling were indeed sisters.
Their thoughts were the same: filthy.
