This Is Not a Love Triangle! (Continued)

"???"

Kiana couldn't find any connection between the two sentences.

"What does this have to do with me! I'm devoted to Mei!"

When--!

"Tsk, this guy... he seemed pretty calm, how did he suddenly go crazy?"

Kiana, who had retreated abruptly, stared at the silver scythe that had landed where she had just been standing, her face grim.

(I think it's probably because of Teacher Liu?)

Fu Hua's voice echoed in Kiana's mind.

Who is that guy?! I don't know him at all!

(... is the person I told you about during the day, my teacher, the wise man who guided my growth.)

Oh... now that you mention it, I remember.

But I have absolutely no connection with your teacher, class monitor!

(They are related.)

Kiana heard a hint of nostalgia in Fu Hua's voice.

(Because just now, Kiana, you've been chosen by Teacher Liu.)

I completely don't understand!

Is there any direct connection between this and Rita's sudden madness?

Kiana almost cursed inwardly.

(It's related... because Rita was also chosen by Teacher Liu.)

Aren't we on the same side? Why is she acting so crazy?!

Kiana clearly hasn't figured out what's going on yet.

Fu Hua thought for a moment and gave an example that Kiana could probably understand instantly.

(Kiana, for example, if, I mean if, one day you suddenly see Mei feeding a boy you don't recognize at all, and the two of them are sitting very close together, with Mei practically leaning on him...)

"..."

Okay, hold on, I'm already burning with anger, there's no need to continue.

Furthermore, Kiana's gaze towards Rita now carried a hint of pity.

This maid doesn't seem so cold-blooded after all.

"... What did you mean by that look, Miss Kiana?"

Rita gave a forced, insincere smile.

"It's nothing, I... um... I really understand."

Kiana's attitude made Rita even more unhappy.

Liu Bai rolled his eyes. Oh no, something's happened.

Damn it, is this what they call a battleground?

Or is it more like Rita's one-sided battleground?

Just as Liu Bai had thought, Rita was indeed unusually annoyed.

The two had just become close friends and comrades-in-arms, but Rita was displeased to find that she knew nothing about the other person.

Well, although she was unhappy, Rita felt that the responsibility did not lie with Liu Bai. After all, she had never talked to Liu Bai about these things before. She had been aloof with him before, and now she wanted to know everything about him. How could she have such a good thing?

So it's okay, we can talk about it slowly when we get home, she has plenty of time.

But then a big problem arises—going to see someone else right in front of me, huh? Seeing the lingering confusion on Kiana's face, Rita knew that Kiana had just become Liu Bai's host and was completely unaccustomed to this voice suddenly appearing in her ear.

Whether she was a woman or not was irrelevant, but the fact that she was being sent to find enemies on the battlefield... Rita felt betrayed.

The compatibility between Liu Bai and Rita is currently 55%, which doesn't seem high; it's not even close to passing on a 100-point scale.

But in reality, starting from scratch, this relationship already constitutes trust, and Rita is the type of person who rarely entrusts her trust to others...

The compatibility between Rita and Rita was basically difficult at first but easy later. In this incident, after Rita chose to trust Liu Bai, their compatibility jumped from 11% to 55% in just one night.

If we can maintain this trust... well, it seems pretty risky now.

"Understand? Then can I give you two sedative injections and take you back, Miss Kiana?"

"I still refuse that kind of thing!"

"There's nothing we can do about it... Let's get serious a little bit, Ms. Kiana. If it hurts, you can always yell out."

Rita struck a pose with a smile on her face.

Then...

Rita's compatibility -1%

Rita's compatibility -1%

Rita's compatibility -1%

The notifications were refreshed almost every second, and Liu Bai, who was still in a dilemma, immediately understood what Rita meant by her pose.

Possession!

Seeing the precarious 50% compatibility, Liu Bai quickly possessed the Argent Knight: Artemis within Rita.

It's important to know that once the compatibility level drops below fifty, Liu Bai will no longer meet the conditions for possessing the Argent Knight: Artemis Armor.

The next moment, Liu Bai, the Guardian Spirit had transformed into Silver Moon, appeared from behind Rita.

Rita's compatibility +10%

Rita raised the corner of her mouth slightly.

It seems that Liu Bai is still on my side.

Hmm... I'll write this down too, and we'll settle it when we get back.

A glint flashed in Rita's eyes; clearly, this matter would not be easily dismissed like the World Serpent's.

They really need to be taught a lesson...

Liu Bai, who had already transformed into the Silver Moon, suddenly felt a chill run down his spine... Wait, is it really okay for him to feel a chill down his spine now that he's just an ice-attribute shadow?

"Rita, actually this wasn't what I wanted... uh, there was a little accident?"

"I understand, I was also at fault here." Rita replied softly with a smile. "Anyway, my dear guardian spirit who has protected so many people, let's talk about it when we get home."

Rita deliberately emphasized the words "I don't know how many people she has protected".

... It is indeed a bad omen.

(...)

Kiana suddenly sensed that her class monitor seemed to have suddenly become a little down.

What's wrong?

(Let's talk about it when we get home... That's really an enviable statement.)

Fu Hua sighed softly in Kiana's mind.

(Kiana, I'll try my best to counter your moves. Whether you win or not depends on yourself. If you win, remember to go easy on me... Of course, if you can't win, it's okay to run away. Teacher Liu's personality won't be biased.)

Fu Hua, on the contrary, understands Liu Bai the most, and naturally knows the principle that both are equally dear to her.

Teacher Liu truly treats his own people very well.

Moreover, although their teacher is easygoing, he is by no means weak.

Although it seems like they're on Rita's side, when things really get critical, their teacher will definitely step in to mediate.

Teacher Liu had his reasons for choosing Kiana and Rita. Now that Teacher Liu has restricted Rita, she also needs to remind Kiana.

Of course, because Rita's "We'll talk about it when we get home" created such an atmosphere that it made everyone so envious, Fu Hua decided to try and see if she could help Kiana beat Rita up.

... Speaking of which, does Teacher Liu really like women with this kind of figure?

Looking at Rita's equally shapely figure, Fu Hua felt a strange sense of regret. She felt like she had missed out on a fortune by not studying biology with Mobius to get breast augmentation back then.

Now let's look at Kiana... Although Kiana's silly personality used to make people overlook her figure, to be honest, although she's younger Rita, Kiana is also younger Rita.

If the two were the same age, they might actually be evenly matched.

Fu Hua inexplicably felt a sense of loneliness, as if she were fighting alone.

Sure enough, I was too naive back then... Teacher Liu's seemingly casual advice turned out to be the wisest.

"..."

Kiana, who had received a fragment of Fu Hua, twitched the corner of her mouth.

Ah... if that's the case, the class monitor already has over 50,000... cough cough.

Oh no! I forgot that the class monitor can hear my thoughts!

(... It's okay, I don't mind.)

Or rather, caring is pointless.

She was still flat-chested at 17, while Kiana is already quite accomplished— Kiana's ID card says she's 19, but she's actually at most 17.

Perhaps... I really don't have that potential?

(Let's think of a way to get out of here first. According to Teacher Liu, Rita probably wasn't planning on going all out—at least not at first.)

If Teacher Liu had acted as if nothing had happened and hadn't said a word, things certainly wouldn't have escalated to this point.

Then, why would Teacher Liu take such a risk to say this?

In other words, this so-called "match-fixing" is actually risky, and there is a high possibility that things could get out of control.

Because it's a fixed match, Rita will definitely not use her full strength, but Kiana, who doesn't know it's a "fixed match," will definitely fight back to the death.

While Rita is still stronger Kiana, she can no longer completely overwhelm Kiana. If she doesn't go all out, she'll inevitably get injured under Kiana's counterattack.

Although the possibility is not high, does Teacher Liu still want to avoid this possibility...? As expected, he is still the Teacher Liu I know.

Fu Hua compatibility +3%

(Kiana, go in and initiate by cutting through her mid lane!)

—Although, Fu Hua still wanted to spar with Rita.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Kiana fired three shots at Rita, but Rita dodged them all.

Kiana was not surprised by this result.

After all, her opponent was Rita... However, she also realized that the gap between herself and Rita was not that big now.

... Okay, let's ignore that blatantly slacking off silver shadow.

"Tsk..."

Is the match-fixing scandal still ongoing?

Kiana was getting a little annoyed. The frost on Rita's scythe was getting more and more troublesome the longer she fought it, Kiana felt like her fingers were about to freeze.

If it weren't for the match-fixing, Kiana felt she would have run away long ago.

"They're here."

Rita suddenly whispered

The next moment, Rita's communications were turned on.
