Chapter: Chapter 63
Dada dada dada, the crisp sound of keyboard typing echoed in the room. The black-haired girl effortlessly controlled her character, defeating the monsters pouncing towards her one by one.
“Ah, easy peasy.” After eliminating all the monsters, Letizia comfortably picked up an apple from the fruit plate held by Baili and popped it into her mouth.
“So sweet.” Chewing the apple, the girl showed an expression of enjoyment.
Beside her, Baili, dressed in a black and white maid outfit, clearly looked a little strained.
Yes, Letizia’s second request was for Baili to wear a maid outfit and be her maid during the day.
The maid outfit was a gift from Xue’er. This particular outfit, slightly different from the ones Xue’er usually wore, was Xue’er’s prized possession, something even Xue’er herself had not worn.
Under Letizia’s strong insistence, Xue’er reluctantly parted with it, gifting the brand-new outfit to Baili.
However, Miss Bai did not seem to appreciate it much.
“Your request is truly annoying,” Baili gritted her teeth and said fiercely.
It wasn’t that she was displeased with Letizia leaving her there to play games. Her displeasure stemmed entirely from the outfit she was currently wearing.
“Are all your demon race maids like this?”
Why would Xue’er cherish this outfit without ever wearing it?
The reason was that the outfit was simply too revealing.
Xue’er’s usual maid outfits were already quite daring, sure to attract a crowd if she walked down the street.
Compared to what Baili was wearing now, Xue’er’s maid outfits could be considered conservative.
“Isn’t it nice? I think it looks quite good, Xiao Baibai~” Letizia’s lips curved slightly. The vast expanse of Baili’s snow-white skin exposed to the air made her feel quite pleased.
You were trying to seduce me before, weren’t you? Fine, since you want to seduce me so badly, I’ll let you.
Looking at this maid outfit, which could almost be called lingerie, on Baili, the ice-cold beauty, Letizia felt bursts of satisfaction.
Especially those two long white legs, which looked incredibly alluring against the backdrop of the white lace stockings. Baili’s previous attempts at seduction paled in comparison to this.
“!” Baili glared with anger. She was genuinely upset.
“Are you angry?” Letizia giggled. “You know how to get angry?”
Forcing someone to do something they disliked was incredibly infuriating. Baili was probably experiencing that firsthand right now.
“Do you hate wearing this kind of clothing?” Letizia picked up another piece of apple with a toothpick. This time, however, she didn’t put it in her mouth but offered it to Baili.
Baili’s expression softened for a fleeting moment, but it quickly froze again. She nodded, admitting that she was very unhappy at the moment.
“For me, you barged into my life without permission, and my anger was no less than yours is now.” Seeing that Baili had no intention of opening her mouth, Letizia indifferently popped the apple into her own mouth. “I haven’t forgotten the grudge from that arrow back then.”
“…” Baili remained silent, but her eyes told Letizia that the girl was seriously considering Letizia’s words.
After a long pause, Baili looked at Letizia, determination evident in her eyes. “I can tolerate it.”
“…Are you crazy!” Letizia snapped. Was this the answer she wanted? She wanted Baili to admit that her actions were wrong.
What did ‘I can tolerate it’ mean?
It implied that Letizia could also tolerate it?
Yes, Baili was a great saint, magnanimous and broad-minded, but Letizia was narrow-minded and couldn’t stand it.
“It’s best if we have no connection whatsoever. You be your Baili, and I’ll be my Su Qianqian.” Letizia stopped pretending and laid her cards on the table. “I actually quite like the human world, and you don’t have to worry about me causing any major trouble.”
“What do you mean?” A bad premonition stirred in Baili’s heart.
“If I can’t deal with you, can’t I just avoid you?” Letizia snorted. One of the main reasons Baili could bother her so frequently was that they lived too close to each other.
They lived so close that they could appear in each other’s homes with just a thought.
If she could increase the distance, Letizia truly didn’t believe Baili could still bother her with such high intensity every day.
“Are you moving?”
“What, you care about that?” Letizia propped her chin, looking at Baili with a half-smile. “I’m already looking for a new place. This time, I plan to buy a villa directly, so I won’t have any more annoying neighbors.”
Baili’s expression turned somewhat grim. The news that Letizia was moving was difficult for her to accept.
“Just because you hate me?”
“That’s just one reason.” Letizia shook her head. While Baili was a major reason, there were other reasons as well. “You are a Sword Saint. Even though you’ve retired and are no longer acting as a hero, the troubles around you haven’t decreased at all.”
“I don’t want strange things barging into my home. I just want a peaceful life.”
Letizia’s goal had always been very clear: she wanted to slack off, not get involved in trivial matters.
Games, manga, novels – weren’t these more interesting than fighting and scheming?
“You won’t lack people with ulterior motives around you. Unlike me, your identity is kept secret, but quite a few people know about it.” Letizia walked in front of Baili and gazed into those beautiful crimson eyes. “My last request is, please don’t disturb my life, can you?”
“I…” Baili suddenly realized she had nothing to say. Letizia’s request was very sincere, and her reasons were very logical.
From the very beginning, it was she who had forcefully intruded into this girl’s life.
“However, I’ve always wondered about one thing: why are you so fixated on me?” Letizia asked. Logically, Baili and she should have been incompatible and full of conflict.
After they met, how could Baili have thought of approaching Letizia? It was very strange.
Their interactions so far had been entirely Baili’s one-sided approach, with Letizia trying her best to tolerate it.
Letizia’s tolerance could be understood, but Baili’s active pursuit was difficult to explain.
