Chapter: Chapter 146
The next morning, the exhausted Leticia decided to sleep in.
Last night, she had experienced the ultimate level of unreasonable behavior. When a child-like deity started acting unreasonably, Leticia truly couldn’t handle it.
Flora had called her over simply to give her a gift and to continue asking Leticia to look after Evangeline. As for Qing, she purely came to spectate.
The ability to voluntarily pull the minds of others into one’s artifact space seemed to be Flora’s exclusive ability; Qing couldn’t do such a thing.
This deity could only come out of her prison for a breath of fresh air when the Elven Empress actively called her, unlike Flora, who seemed so free.
From this, it was clear that Qing was truly incompetent.
Of course, if these words were spoken in front of Qing, that little girl would probably start shouting about disrespecting a deity again.
“Get up.” Unfortunately, Leticia’s plan to sleep in was thwarted. Miss Bai entered her room and began poking Leticia’s face with her finger.
“What for? If you have nothing to do, go do it yourself, alright?” Leticia opened her eyes in annoyance. Who did she offend by trying to catch up on sleep?
“About Evangeline, didn’t you say she was leaving in a few days? And Xi Mengyao’s memories, shouldn’t a decision be made on that?” However, Bai Ling was actually here to discuss serious matters this time.
Leticia grabbed her hair in distress. Her hair, already messy from a night’s rest, almost turned into a bird’s nest from her frantic tugging.
“How about we send Evangeline away first, then you control Xi Mengyao, and I’ll modify her memories?”
“Doing this, we kind of feel like bad guys.”
“For our common ideal, it’s fine to be bad guys. Besides, we’re not completely erasing it, we can slightly conceal that memory, right?” Leticia, stroking her chin, voiced her thoughts. “For example, Evangeline is still that Lin Qingyu; she’s not the Elven Empress, but an ordinary half-elf or something.”
“They met because one day, Xi Mengyao encountered an attack from extreme elements of the elf race, and Lin Qingyu bravely saved Xi Mengyao.”
“Then they developed feelings and such. See, wouldn’t that be quite good?”
“But, isn’t that very troublesome?” Bai Ling asked.
Leticia nodded naturally, “Of course it’s troublesome. The most convenient way is to directly erase that memory, which saves the most magic power. But if we really do that, Evangeline would probably fight me to the death.”
She didn’t want her partner to resent her one day.
“Speaking of which, does Xiao Ya know who Evangeline is yet?” Leticia suddenly asked about another matter.
Bai Ling shook her head, “She met Evangeline yesterday but didn’t recognize Evangeline as the Elven Empress.”
Evangeline didn’t appear in public often, and Bai Ya wasn’t the type of girl who liked to read the news, so it was normal for her not to recognize Evangeline.
To be honest, not many in the elf race could recognize Evangeline at first glance; this Empress’s presence was indeed a bit weak.
More widely known among the elves were those white-haired elders and the beautiful princess. As for the Empress?
Who would care about a half-elf?
Even if she was the nominal leader of the elf race.
It could only be said that Evangeline’s situation was truly miserable; her circumstances were probably only slightly better than some empresses in adult visual novels.
“Then it’s fine. Wait for me, we’ll go find the two of them again later.” Leticia yawned and got out of bed.
After shooing Bai Ling out of the room and changing into the clothes Sheryl had prepared, Leticia admired the cute girl in the mirror before rubbing her temples and walking out of the bedroom.
Kira had already gone to the study to work. After placing breakfast on the table, Sheryl was busy organizing things. The Leticia household was quite lively now.
The two Heavenly Kings were moving the items Sheryl had organized downstairs, box by box, as not just anyone could enter the Demon King’s home.
After breakfast, Leticia followed Bai Ling upstairs and knocked on Evangeline’s door.
The one who opened the door was naturally Xi Mengyao. Today, she looked full of energy, with a faint blush on her face. She was a completely different person compared to yesterday.
Is this the power of love? Leticia thought.
“Miss Su, Miss Bai.” Xi Mengyao led them into the room. “I know why you two are here, but can you please not make me forget her?”
“I can only say that forgetting her is the best option. If you really don’t want to forget, I can give you another option,” Leticia said. “Go to Evangeline’s room. These things also need to be asked for her opinion.”
Entering Evangeline’s bedroom, the Empress looked in good spirits today as well. She was leaning against the bed, engrossed in her phone.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, she looked up and smiled at the three girls who entered: “Good morning, Miss Bai, Miss Qian Qian.”
“Morning. I’ve already contacted the elves, and you can be sent there tomorrow.” Leticia first stated the urgency of the situation and then explained her idea to Evangeline and Xi Mengyao.
“If one day, Evangeline, you truly achieve your wish and are willing to give up everything, or if Little Xi is willing to go to the elf race, then have her contact me, and I will come to restore Little Xi’s memories.”
“This is the best method for now. Leaving this memory has too much danger. Evangeline, you don’t want Xi Mengyao to be harmed, and Xi Mengyao, you don’t want to become a bargaining chip to threaten Evangeline, right?”
Bai Ling blinked her eyes, feeling like she had missed something.
Why did Leticia immediately assume there was a relationship between the two girls?
Had she missed a few episodes?
“Did you peek?” Bai Ling poked Leticia.
The Demon King glared at Bai Ling. Was this the time to ask such things?
Didn’t she see the couple was having a moment of conflict?
“Is it, is it?” Bai Ling continued to poke.
A vein bulged on Leticia’s forehead. She grabbed Bai Ling’s wrist with one hand and smacked the other unruly hand hard with her other hand.
The effect was immediate; Bai Ling’s fair and tender hand back immediately turned red.
“It hurts,” Bai Ling said with a hint of grievance.
“Serves you for being nosy.” Leticia placed Bai Ling’s hand on Bai Ling’s thigh. “Don’t move, or I’ll hit you again.”
Finally, Evangeline and Xi Mengyao reached a consensus.
“You want to modify your memories after Evangeline leaves? That’s fine,” Leticia nodded after hearing the two girls’ decision. “However, someone will come to take Evangeline tomorrow, so you two only have today to spend together.”
“Mm, so…,” Xi Mengyao poked her fingers, her face blushing as she whispered, “Can we, that…”
Leticia understood. She grabbed Bai Ling, indicating that the two of them wouldn’t be a third wheel.
You two can do whatever you want today, just don’t cause any fatalities.
Bai Ling was still a bit resistant, but Leticia forcefully pushed her out of the room and closed the door.
“What happened?” Miss Sword Saint asked, confused.
Leticia’s expression was somewhat strained. This girl was usually so bold; why was she so slow to react now?
Given Xi Mengyao’s behavior just now, it was clear she intended to have some intimate moments with Evangeline during the remaining time today.
At this moment, did they still want to stay in the room as third wheels?
“Is your brain eaten by pigs? They’re going to get lovey-dovey. If you want to be a third wheel, go ahead, but I’m not!” Leticia snorted.
Lovey-dovey?!
Bai Ling’s eyes widened. They were already getting lovey-dovey?
She immediately moved to the door, held her breath, and eavesdropped.
A few seconds later, she retreated with a blush on her face.
Girls nowadays are truly… terrifying.
It was broad daylight, and they were already… heavens, Bai Ling felt like she was falling behind the times.
She had thought she was bold and avant-garde, but she never expected Xi Mengyao and Evangeline to be even bolder and more avant-garde.
It’s only been a few days, just a few days!
They were already…
“What did you hear?” Leticia’s curiosity was piqued.
To make the incredibly thick-skinned Bai Ling blush, had the two girls progressed to the final step?
No way?
“They, they seem to be kissing?” Bai Ling stammered.
Oh, just kissing. What’s there to be shy about? Leticia was greatly disappointed; she had expected things in the room to be more intense.
In the end, it was just kissing, which was very disappointing.
“Tch, I thought it was something more intimate, but it’s just such a small thing.” Leticia chuckled.
Bai Ling’s face turned as red as an apple. She was indeed bold at times, but also exceptionally shy at other times.
When she was bold, she could appear naked in front of a stranger like Leticia. When she was shy, even hearing others kiss could make her face turn red.
It was truly unpredictable how thick-skinned this girl was.
“No, it’s kissing! They’re actually kissing!” Bai Ling exclaimed, waving her hands to make Leticia understand the gravity of the situation.
She had been with Leticia for so long, but kissing was something Bai Ling had never even considered.
For her, the greatest success was sleeping while hugging Leticia.
Close physical contact like kissing, Bai Ling dared not even think about it, really, she dared not think about it.
“It’s just a kiss. Once you find a girlfriend someday, you’ll get used to it,” Leticia said, patting Bai Ling’s shoulder as someone with experience.
Although she hadn’t dated, she had seen others date. However, they weren’t same-sex couples like Evangeline and Xi Mengyao, but normal heterosexual couples.
Back then, Leticia felt seven parts jealous and three parts envious as her good brothers broke free from the bachelor ranks one by one.
Alas, envy and jealousy were useless. When she was sent to the womb by some unknown force on that day, her lovely girlfriend was still hiding and unwilling to appear.
In conclusion, Leticia felt that although the progress of Evangeline and Xi Mengyao’s relationship was a bit fast, it was still within a normal range.
They had developed feelings through life-and-death situations; Evangeline risked her life to save Xi Mengyao, and later Xi Mengyao also supported Evangeline for a long distance.
If they hadn’t developed some emotional foundation by now, it would be strange.
“Besides, they only have one day to be intimate, so they should seize the time.”
“Um, speaking of which, aren’t you leaving too?” Bai Ling’s gaze began to drift. “Should we also be intimate…”
*Slap!*
Leticia jumped up and slapped Bai Ling on the head.
“Mmm…” The girl’s eyes welled up with tears as she clutched her head, not knowing why she had been hit.
“I’m going back precisely because I don’t want to be entangled with you. Intimate? If I were intimate with you, wouldn’t I have gained nothing upon my return?” Leticia said with her eyes closed and a dark expression.
She was planning to go back to the demon realm precisely to get rid of Bai Ling. After they left, they would have no ties to each other except for Xiao Ya.
She would go her own way, and I would go mine; that was Leticia’s plan.
She believed that time could dilute all emotions. In a few years, Bai Ling might find another beautiful young lady, and Leticia could find a girl she liked as a wife.
Their lives would both be perfect, how wonderful would that be?
“I’m telling you, stop clinging to me, a wilting tree. You’re so beautiful; there must be many people who like you. Find someone suitable, communicate your feelings with them, and fill that empty void in your heart,” Leticia began to lecture, completely unaware that Bai Ling’s gaze had begun to change.
“Look at you, you have such great ‘hardware.’ If you didn’t choose me, you could be a player now without any problem. Why bother? I’m not that pretty. Look at my figure, it’s like a plank.”
“I don’t have any grand goals in my life; I just want to find a beautiful young lady to be my wife. After returning to the demon realm, I’ll go find… Wait, why are you so close to me?”
As Leticia was pontificating, Bai Ling had quietly approached Leticia. When Leticia came to her senses, she was surprised to find that Bai Ling was only an inch away from her.
Leticia instinctively took a few steps back, leaning against the wall. Bai Ling, however, seemed unwilling to let Leticia go and followed her, cornering her against the wall.
Leticia panicked.
“What are you doing? I’m warning you, there are other people watching here.”
“No, I just feel like… I seemed to be too unaggressive before,” Bai Ling said with a blush. “This is the only chance I have, I must seize it!”
“Wait, get away from me, get away!”
