Making a Life Together / Consultation

When the word "very good" suddenly appeared in such a serious meeting, Sakura almost thought that her sister had done something embarrassing again.

... No, it might already be dried.

"Uh, yes, Rin is rather... optimistic." Sakura also noticed that although the meeting was a bit serious, it didn't seem completely serious?

"So, if Rin becomes Herrscher..."

"We still need to observe her. So far, Rin seems fine. We'll analyze each situation individually, but I'll have to trouble Sakura with the observation and care—you probably don't trust the rest of us to take care of her, right?"

"Ahem..." Sakura coughed awkwardly twice after her thoughts were exposed.

"By the way, during the observation period, make sure that child reads more serious books and less romance novels, and avoids spending too much time with Danzhu," Mei suddenly brought up a seemingly unrelated topic.

Sakura immediately blushed, just like a parent who had been called out by the teacher at a parent-teacher meeting.

"Yes, yes, I... I'll go beat up Danzhu first!"

Chapter 441 Living a Daily Life

(The author just got home, this chapter is only 2k words long, it will be restored later.)

Although Sakura was a little confused about the current situation, it didn't stop her from chasing Danzhu for miles.

Anyway, it's not easy to pursue my own sister now, so I can only pursue you, Danzhu. Of course, we've been friends for so many years, so Sakura hasn't really made a move—after all, Sakura still has a rational side.

Although I'm reluctant to admit it, given Danzhu's personality, it's less that she corrupted Ling, and more that Ling herself... well, has some issues.

After cornering Danzhu and making sure Danzhu had learned her lesson, Ying finally went to see her younger sister, feeling somewhat exhausted.

"Sis, when are you going to become the first wife?"

Upon meeting, Ling's first words immediately made Sakura blush.

"Can't you put something serious in your head?" Even though she knew her sister's situation was special, Sakura couldn't help but flick Rin on the forehead.

What do you mean by being the first wife? Is this the kind of wife I'm capable of being?

And what does it have to do with you, you brat, whether I become the first wife or not!

"Sis! Cheer up! Our family line depends on you to carry on!" Ling looked at her older sister with a disappointed expression. "Look at Sister Elysia, and look at you, sis. You both have pink hair, so how come there's such a big difference? If this continues, you're really going to lose completely."

"If you keep thinking nonsense and keep talking, don't blame me for punching you."

Although Sakura knew that her younger sister was currently a "little patient," she simply couldn't stand her sister's incessant chatter.

And more importantly, this topic... what's with the "they're all pink-haired, but the difference is so huge"?

You dare try? That's Elysia! Elysia has pink hair, but that doesn't mean everyone with pink hair is Elysia!

If I had Elysia's fighting power, would I need you lecturing me?

You brat, it's easy for you to stand here and talk without any sense of responsibility!

"What do you mean by 'overthinking'! Isn't this just a private conversation between the two of us sisters?"

Ling looked sad.

"Oh! I get it! Sister, now that you have a man, you don't want your cute little sister anymore, waaaaaah~~ I'm going to be Sister Elysia's little sister."

"Hehe, go ahead and see if your Sister Elysia will drag you back." Sakura crossed her arms, looking on with amusement.

"Ahem, just kidding. How could I abandon my best sister?"

Ling cleared her throat somewhat awkwardly.

"Don't worry! What you can't do, I'll do!"

"...?" Sakura was stunned for a moment. "Wait a minute, what do you mean by that, you brat? How old are you to be dating?"

"It's like you're talking like you're the kind of woman who wants to be a mistress."

Ling made a face at Ying.

So much time has passed, and Rin is now the same age as Sakura was back then, but she still looks quite childish.

"Ahem! Don't change the subject!"

"It's clearly you trying to change the subject, sis."

Ling watched her sister, who was now embarrassed, with amusement.

"Alright, on that other hand, if I were to defeat Sister Elysia and Sister Eden and become the first wife, shouldn't you greet me with something like 'Your Majesty the Empress' when you see me?"

"... I can make you kneel down right now, you brat."

Sakura's lips twitched. "I said, what do you take our family for? What kind of nonsense is in your head?"

I wanted to feel sorry for my younger sister, but now I can't feel sorry for her at all.

He even wanted to let the girl know why the flowers were so red.

"Hehehe..." Ling scratched her head, "Don't worry! Sis, after we become Herrscher and take down those vixens, I'll definitely save a concubine position for you!"

"I've already said our family isn't... uh, wait, Rin, you already know?"

Sakura looked surprised.

Ling scratched her head, a subtle expression on her face. "Uh... now you know?"

"..."

Sakura fell silent. Had she, as the older sister, been tricked?

Ling noticed her sister's embarrassment and gave an embarrassed look. "We're just giving it a try... I'm not stupid. These past two days, Mei-jie, Aunt Mobius, and my brother have all come to check on me. Who would believe I'm not busy? After thinking about it, I guess only something like Herrscher would make them so concerned."

Rin's answer left Sakura speechless.

Thinking about it carefully, although my younger sister is not very reliable all the time, she is actually quite smart, even more so than her older sister.

However, now that the topic has been brought up, Sakura doesn't know how to continue the conversation.

However, Ling remained optimistic. "Don't people say that the Herrscher get stronger as time goes on? I should be the last Herrscher before the Finality, right? And Sister Elysia was the first Herrscher, so can I easily defeat Sister Elysia?"

"... What are you thinking about?"

Although Rin hadn't kept anything from her about the Herrscher, Rin's outlandish idea was making Sakura a little uneasy.

"Don't you like watching anime? You should know that anyone ranked zero is a freak, right?"

You think you can beat Aili? You're only getting beaten up because she thinks you're cute!

"Tell me! A person should always have some ambition. You can't just surrender and become a mistress just because someone is super strong."

Cherry. "..."

"You, your sister, I just didn't want to ruin other people's relationship."

"Alright, alright, it's just that you were too shy back then, sis. Now that you've overcome your shyness, you've missed your chance." Rin had an expression that said she had seen right through Sakura.

"..."

It is absolutely undeniable.

"Tsk tsk tsk, back then you were so high and mighty, but now you can barely beat Sister Vil-V. Are you going to lose to Sister Pardo after losing to Sister Vil-V? If you keep losing like this, you'll have nothing left to lose to."

"... Young and naive—but it was all to take care of you, girl!"

Sakura picked up Bell without any hesitation and slapped her on the bottom.

You brat, today I'll show you what it means for an elder sister to be like a mother!

"Wait, wait! I'm almost an adult, isn't it inappropriate to spank me now?!"

Snap!

"Wow! Sis, you're too strong! If you keep hitting us like this, we'll turn into villains! Then you'll be the sinners of both of us for all eternity!"

"Then I'll kill you and then commit suicide!" Sakura said, her face dark with anger.

"No."

Upon hearing this, Ling suddenly became serious and turned over.

"Sis, let's make a deal."

"... An agreement?"

"I'll handle my own affairs. If I really feel like I can't hold on any longer, I'll go directly to Dr. Mei. No matter how Sister Mei handles it, you still have to keep living your life. Not only your brother, but many other people need you—oh, right, and most importantly, you still have to carry on the family line, don't you?"

Chapter 442 Consultation

"Gray Serpent, tell me, what does it feel like to suddenly realize that your silly little sister has grown up?"

Sakura planted her twin swords— the Frozen Hell, Icy Sky and the God Key Purging Thunder —into the ground, and sighed as she asked the Gray Serpent, whose head was the only part of its body resting on the table.

—Although Sakura is troubled by her sister's situation, she still remembers her main job.

"... Shouldn't you, Sakura-sama, ask that person about that kind of question?"

The Gray Serpent, now only a head, spoke in a strange tone—if its face hadn't also been covered by machinery, Gray Serpent would likely have displayed a rather subtle expression.

No matter how you look at it, a swordsman sitting on a corpse and a cult leader whose organization was destroyed and who himself was beheaded should not be talking about such mundane matters, right?

"Well... Liu Bai, it's not easy to ask him." Sakura scratched her head awkwardly.

Although her younger sister had suddenly matured, she seemed particularly eager to see her and Liu Bai have some fun. If she brought up this topic with Liu Bai, given his personality, he would definitely want to discuss it with Ling again.

What if, cough, what if, what if my sister threatens to kill herself, forcing me and Liu Bai... for example, to have some kind of emotional conflict in our mental world? That would be too awkward.

If this were to happen, even if it was Rin's suggestion, Sakura figured she would be nagged about it for the rest of her life.

The others were in similar situations. Although Rin could say something surprising enough to get her talked about, Sakura decided to ask her since they were coming over to kill the Gray Serpent anyway.

"... It's no use asking me. You know I don't have a sister."

The Gray Serpent's eyes flickered a few times, seemingly expressing its helplessness.

"Weren't you observing humans?" Sakura retorted, clearly annoyed. "If you can't even handle something this simple, what are you observing humans for?"

"Sakura-sama, you're acting like an ignorant relative asking a law student to bail someone out of prison—it's utterly unreasonable."

"You know I'm being unreasonable, and you're still trying to reason with me?"

Sakura gave Gray Serpent a disdainful look, leaving Gray Serpent speechless.

Sakura hadn't finished speaking when she added, "Besides, this isn't just my problem. What if you have a younger brother or sister in the future?"

"Um... sorry, I didn't quite understand what you said. Could you repeat it?"

"I'm telling you, what if you have a younger brother or sister in the future! Giving me advice now is helping your future self!"

"..."

The Gray Serpent fell silent again.

Well, he understood a little of what he was saying, but not completely. What did he mean by helping his future self?

Okay, the focus should be on "future younger brothers and sisters".

"Sakura-sama, you mean that after Mobius- sama... no, that's impossible. It's hard to imagine that Dr. Mobius would make such a decision."

It's not that Gray Serpent is trying to discredit Mobius, but to be honest, Gray Serpent really can't imagine what it would be like for Mobius to put in the effort to conceive and then have a big belly.

This shape is clearly unsuitable for work.

"What do you mean by impossible? Hard to imagine? Don't you know that guy often seems indifferent towards children, but actually overflows with maternal instincts?" Sakura replied matter-of-factly.

Given Mobius's hidden maternal love, let alone other children, even if Liu Bai suddenly had an illegitimate child with someone unknown, Mobius would happily adopt the child after some hesitation.

Scholars of Mobius's caliber no longer place much importance on blood ties; rather, they are more concerned with the transmission of consciousness... well, at least that's how it was for this group of people before they actually had children.

Some things, especially subjective ones, can easily change under the powerful influence of the "pregnancy brain" phenomenon.

At that moment, the Gray Serpent's head revealed a stiff expression.

Sorry, I have absolutely no idea.

The Gray Serpent silently answered in its heart.

That's completely unimaginable...

"... Sakura-sama, if you're asking how to get along with your suddenly grown-up silly little sister, I might be able to offer some advice, but if you're asking about your feelings about this situation, I really can't help you."
