“Sister, aren’t we going out for a mission today?” the black-haired girl, carrying her schoolbag, asked curiously as she opened the door and saw her sister lying in bed looking at her phone.
Leticia, who was happily scrolling through her phone, turned her head towards the door and nodded, “Yes, today is the day the captain invited me to dinner. Besides, even heroes need to rest.”
It had been over a month since Leticia became a true hero. During this time, Kira confirmed that the rift at the world’s boundary had indeed completely disappeared, and they really couldn’t go back.
Although Leticia had been mentally prepared for this outcome, she couldn’t help but sigh when her sister actually spoke of it.
The Demon Realm had suddenly lost two people who could manage affairs. Could Xue’er alone really suppress those nobles?
Leticia didn’t know. She believed her friends, but she truly didn’t trust those nobles who had long been dissatisfied with her as the Demon King.
In the short term, Xue’er might still be able to appease the nobles with Leticia’s residual influence, but as time went on, Xue’er would ultimately be unable to completely suppress them.
This was because Xue’er was just an ordinary demon, and her status was merely Leticia’s maid. When Leticia was still around, her status was naturally high, but when both Leticia and Kira disappeared, Xue’er’s power base instantly vanished.
Those nobles wouldn’t miss such a good opportunity.
But worrying about these things now was useless. Leticia was a girl who went with the flow, which was one of his strengths.
After confirming that they couldn’t go back anytime soon, she diligently started working as a hero. Her diligence was so great that Ms. Bai thought Leticia had been replaced by someone else.
The result of her diligence was that Leticia successfully returned to a state of affluence from the poverty line within a month.
Every mission from the Hero Association had a good reward. Leticia completed missions at a breakneck speed. At her fastest, she could complete one in the morning, another in the afternoon, and another in the evening as an afterthought. This was many times more efficient than ordinary heroes who took several days to complete a single mission.
For Leticia, her favorite missions were those that involved raiding gangster strongholds. These missions were low in difficulty (for her) and paid well. If it weren’t for the rarity of such missions, she feared she might have single-handedly wiped out all the gangsters.
Her enthusiastic participation in capturing gangsters also earned her a title among them: the White Reaper.
When undertaking combat-type missions, Leticia would still wear the white robe she had worn a long time ago to conceal her identity, as heroes couldn’t reveal their identity.
“Okay then, I’m going to school.”
After the joint investigation mission at the world’s boundary ended, Kira returned home and found herself with nothing to do.
Without any files to process, she had nothing else to worry about.
Her sister had also started working hard, and since she couldn’t urge her sister to work, Kira fell into a period of confusion.
What should she do? What could she do?
Perhaps she should also become a hero?
After hearing her sister’s thoughts, Leticia tapped her sister’s forehead speechlessly. Was Kira a bit too foolish?
“Why not enjoy your youth during this time? No work, no pressure, just happily do what you want to do. If anything happens, I’ll take responsibility for it.” As she said this, Leticia’s image became exceptionally tall in Kira’s eyes. It was hard to believe that these words were coming from Leticia.
Therefore, Kira decisively chose to go to school with Xiao Ya.
One of her objectives was naturally to experience a student life that she had never properly experienced. Her second objective was not to have her “home raided.”
Yes, home raided.
In the dream incident a month ago, Zi Meng, who was at the center of the storm, was not abandoned. After the gods fled and before the altar disappeared, Bai Ling took Zi Meng away on a whim.
After a period of recuperation, Zi Meng returned to a normal life. Compared to before, after experiencing this incident, the girl became much more lively, as if something weighing on her had disappeared.
(Kira later learned that Zi Meng’s father was not as lucky and did not wake up from the dream.)
Not only that, but Zi Meng also benefited from misfortune once. Perhaps due to the divine possession, she had indeed become a superpowered individual, and her abilities were similar to those shown by the god at that time. She could hypnotize people within her line of sight.
After detailed examinations, the Hero Association’s testing personnel concluded that Zi Meng’s talent was extremely high, and with proper training, she would at least become an S-class hero in the future.
Then, Bai Ling made a move and placed Zi Meng in the captain’s team to have the captain mentor the girl.
However, despite becoming a hero, Zi Meng had no intention of transferring to the Central Ability Academy. She rejected the transfer opportunities offered by the Hero Association and decided to stay by Xiao Ya’s side, looking for an opportunity to dig up the “corner.”
As long as the hoe is swung well, no corner cannot be dug up, Zi Meng firmly believed this.
To prevent herself from constantly wearing a “green hat” (being cuckolded), Kira decisively decided that she had to prevent Zi Meng from getting close.
It couldn’t be said that Kira liked Xiao Ya. Xiao Ya wasn’t as beautiful as her sister, and Kira wasn’t Leticia to be a pure admirer of beauty.
Kira’s reason for doing this was simply because she needed to find something interesting to do for herself, otherwise, she would truly become useless.
Fighting with people is endlessly enjoyable, and Kira was quite enjoying it.
Watching her sister, carrying her schoolbag, disappear out the door, Leticia stretched and sat up from the bed.
The next moment, with a flash of starlight, Bai Ling, wearing a white nightgown, appeared in Leticia’s room. “Phew, good thing I ran fast.”
Yes, before Kira opened the door, there was still someone lying in Leticia’s bed.
“It doesn’t matter if you don’t run away. Kira already knows about our relationship,” Leticia said helplessly, taking her eyes off her phone.
Bai Ling’s speed of escape moments ago even made Leticia suspect if she was doing something illicit. They weren’t having an affair, so why the secrecy?
They were lovers, so what was wrong with sleeping together?
“I just feel a bit awkward in front of Kira…” Bai Ling scratched her face, feeling a bit embarrassed.
Sleeping with her sister in front of her sister was, to some extent, a little embarrassing.
“Fine, fine. Kira has also left. Let’s get ready. The captain has been preparing for this celebration banquet for a long time,” Leticia flipped off the bed and walked to the wardrobe. “I need to choose my clothes carefully.”
“I thought you would just wear a shirt as usual,” Bai Ling followed Leticia and said with a smile.
Leticia rolled her eyes ungracefully and opened the wardrobe. “I’ll be more serious for such an occasion. The captain is our good friend, so we should dress up nicely before going.”
Saying that, Leticia began to choose from the pile of dresses hanging on the hanger.
“Hmm, I’ve worn black too many times, so I’ll skip it this time… Black and gold seems unsuitable for a casual gathering… Pink and white seems too girlish…”
Her fingers swept across the clothes, and Leticia’s gaze finally landed on a very plain white dress. She didn’t know when this dress was added to her wardrobe, but as far as she remembered, she had never worn it.
However, today, perhaps she could try this dress.
Taking the dress off the hanger, Leticia nodded with satisfaction. This dress was quite conservative and wouldn’t expose any skin when worn. Many of her dresses exposed her shoulders or other parts when worn, which she found somewhat unacceptable.
This dress was perfect. Plain, conservative, a perfect choice.
Even though Ms. Bai was watching in the room, Leticia wasn’t too shy this time and changed in front of Ms. Bai.
Holding the hem of the skirt and swaying her body in front of the mirror, Leticia felt that the dress suited her well.
“What do you think? Does it look good?” After passing her own test, Leticia looked at Ms. Bai, seeking her opinion.
What could Bai Ling reply? In her eyes, Leticia looked good even without clothes… of course, only when she was in front of her.
“It looks great. You look good in any outfit.”
“You have a sweet mouth.”
“You know if it’s sweet or not, don’t you?”
“To say something like this at this moment, you are truly you,” Leticia shook her head speechlessly and turned to look for accessories to match.
After searching, she realized that she didn’t have many small accessories, only a few hair clips she could use.
Clap, clap, clap, when Leticia was all dressed up, without waiting for her to ask, Bai Ling consciously started clapping, and while clapping, Ms. Bai said, “You look beautiful, super beautiful.”
Hearing this was quite pleasant. Leticia propped her chin on her hand, looked at herself in the mirror, and nodded. Bai Ling indeed wasn’t lying; she was quite beautiful.
Her light-colored attire made her look about ten years younger, exuding an aura of youthfulness.
“What are you planning to wear?” After tidying herself up, Leticia naturally asked about Ms. Bai’s plans.
Without even thinking, Ms. Bai immediately stated her thoughts, “The usual, clothes that are suitable for action.”
No matter what she wore, Bai Ling preferred clothes that didn’t hinder her movement. When wearing dresses, she liked short skirts, and when wearing pants, she preferred looser ones.
Short skirts… Leticia immediately ruled out pants. Since she was wearing a skirt, how could she let Bai Ling wear pants?
“I don’t think that’s a good idea. How about you try a long dress too?” Leticia asked.
Because it was Leticia’s suggestion, Bai Ling didn’t rush to refuse but began to think. “Hmm, but I don’t know what suits me. Why don’t you help me find one?”
“Okay.”
Upon arriving at Bai Ling’s room and opening the wardrobe of this rich woman, Leticia saw a number of clothes comparable to her own.
She didn’t expect Bai Ling to be someone who enjoyed life as well. So many clothes, most of them probably unworn?
Seeing Leticia’s expression, Bai Ling quickly explained, “Xiao Ya bought them all for me. I don’t like buying clothes.”
As a rich woman, Bai Ling’s spiritual life was clearly barren. When she wasn’t accompanied by Leticia, the most she did was probably go to the Hero Association to spar with her juniors and wander the streets to find various delicious foods.
As for clothes? Clothes can’t be eaten, so Ms. Bai had no interest in buying them.
But Xiao Ya, as an ordinary girl, did! After suddenly becoming a super young lady, Xiao Ya fell in love with the feeling of buying, buying, buying. Every few days, she would add several beautiful dresses to Bai Ling’s and her own wardrobes.
Although the prices of these clothes were not that high.
Even though she knew her family was rich, Xiao Ya was still somewhat hesitant when buying things. Perhaps after living a frugal life for so long (though not exactly poor), she couldn’t change her thrifty habits. However, this wasn’t a bad habit either.
After picking and choosing, Leticia finally selected a dark-colored long dress. Based on visual estimation, she felt this dress would suit Bai Ling very well.
“Try it on. I don’t think it will be bad,” Leticia said with a smile, handing the clothes to Ms. Bai.
Under Leticia’s gaze, Ms. Bai completed the change of clothes without blushing or batting an eye.
“It really suits you. My aesthetic sense is not wrong,” Leticia nodded. Bai Ling wearing this dress looked quite handsome, perfectly complementing her own youthful cuteness.
Wait, then why did she have to be the cute one?
She could be handsome too!
“No, I have to change your outfit, and then change mine,” Leticia muttered, burying her head in Bai Ling’s wardrobe to search again.
But Bai Ling wouldn’t give Leticia this opportunity this time. She wasn’t someone who couldn’t see anything. She could clearly see her current appearance and Li Tie Ya’s perception of it.
Leticia wanting to change clothes now was definitely because she didn’t want to be the cute one.
She wrapped her arms around Leticia’s waist and pulled her away from the wardrobe. “Alright, I think this is good. We need to hurry, or we’ll be late.”
“Tsk, fine.” Leticia pouted, unhappy.
“Don’t be unhappy. Here, have a kiss.”
“Get lost!”
