She's Already Inevitably Become the Quipster (Continued)
... Although this idea is subtly a little bit flawed.
"Why are you nodding?! This is completely absurd!" Asta exclaimed in frustration.
"Miss Asta, if you keep making sarcastic remarks like this, you'll become the one who makes sarcastic remarks."
Rita, who had arrived at some point, kindly reminded them.
"Miss Rita, please don't complain about this!" Asta blurted out unconsciously.
"Liu Bai! Are you alright?!"
At this moment, Yelan, Ningguang, and the others also arrived.
"Hmm~ There are more and more beautiful girls."
Airi Liu Xiya Xia Lai Zai Jiu Liu Bai Wu Li watched as waves of people devoured baskets, and she was very satisfied.
Dream
"It's okay! Whether it's Liu Lin Bai, Qi, or Da Jiu's family, I'm all familiar with them!"
"... Is this person mentally unstable?"
Keqing, who remained serious outside the bed, was also complaining about Elysia, who was having a blast.
They seem quite intelligent, but I can't feel any brainpower in them right now.
And... forget about Tongtong, can this woman defeat Liu Bai?
At this moment, Sakura whispered to Keqing and the others about what had happened earlier.
Thinking.
Suddenly I realized.
So it was that damn cunning vixen!
"Airi... how about we keep quiet for a bit?"
As more and more people gathered, Liu Bai realized he couldn't let Elysia continue to speak so recklessly.
"Huh? Do I need to be quiet in bed?"
"... This is just a room filled with beds."
"But normally, rooms like this shouldn't exist, right?"
Elysia looked at Liu Bai with utter innocence—"What are you pretending to be innocent about after your declaration just now!"
But what he said... left everyone speechless.
Everyone knows the true purpose of this room.
"Even so, we need to keep quiet." Bai took a deep breath. "Otherwise... fifty..."
"Ugh... Your Highness, you're so despicable to resort to such methods."
"What a despicable man!" Planck sighed with a sorrowful expression.
Liu Bai glanced at Planck.
"Ninety..."
"An 18-year-old woman doesn't dislike despicable men."
The 96-year-old young grandmother immediately changed her tune.
After everyone stopped talking, Liu Bai grabbed Elysia's shoulder and turned her over so that she was facing the crowd.
"Let me introduce our new companion, Miss Elysia. Her specialty is using her weight to transform into a shooting star and fall from the sky."
"I'm not good at this at all!"
Elysia retorted angrily.
However, everyone present, including Liu Bai, ignored her.
—If this person hadn't been in Liu Bai whole time, probably a dozen or so people present would have taken him down on the spot.
Adding to that her outrageous remarks just now... the impression that everyone present had of Elysia could only be described as so-so.
If it weren't for her extraordinary affability, Elysia probably wouldn't even qualify as an average person.
"Please take care of me..."
No matter what, the Inazuma group had to give their general face, so they all reluctantly greeted Elysia.
Seeing that everyone in Inazuma had greeted them, the others also greeted Elysia.
"That person... uh." Bai glanced at everyone present, his gaze finally settling on Reanna —for no other reason than that, among everyone present, only this female knight was the most mature and composed.
... and the most beautiful entanglement.
"La Signora. Reanna, could you please arrange a room for her?"
"... That sounds like a troublesome matter." Reanna's expression was slightly helpless. "I understand. Leave this to me."
"Hey? Aren't you going to a party without me?"
"I already said it's not a party!"
Liu Bai pressed Elysia's head and emphasized repeatedly.
Don't say such things in front of everyone, okay? Let's be more considerate! Love you!
... Liu Bai also felt that Elysia seemed to be using her brain.
"And don't say things like, 'A room covered in beds is for doing this kind of thing.'"
Relying on his killer instincts, Liu Bai silenced Elysia first.
"Elysia, this way please," Reanna interjected at the opportune moment.
She felt that if these two kept bickering, it would never end.
"Some things are better done step by step."
"Hmm... Should I try to build up favorability? Eh... Isn't it strange that a beautiful girl like me has to do that?"
Elysia stands with her hands on her hips.
"Hmm... how about we use this young lady to threaten Liu Bai? ' Liu Bai, if you don't want this young lady to be... you know..."
"Huh? Me?" The figure being pointed at was clearly not quite able to process what was happening.
When Reanna heard this, she hesitated for a moment, then decisively stopped talking.
The difference between being composed and not is the ability to suppress the urge to speak.
Reanna, without saying a word, stood between the two and led Elysia away.
"Hey, all of you, stop making those lovey-dovey faces," Asta dutifully complained to the group.
She saw it! When Elysia said those words, many people in the group showed expressions of excitement.
"Ugh! Why is this organization getting more and more troublesome?!"
"Miss Asta, which do you think is more tiring, the Space Station in space or here?"
In the afternoon, both the maids inside and outside the palace were present.
On the contrary, today's shift maids, who are the members of Anti-Entropy, left first.
The two are currently busy in the kitchen.
Kafka was also helping out nearby.
"I think it should be the Space Station?" Kafka guessed. "Even the Stellaron Hunters know a little about that genius's capriciousness."
"... That really does spread bad news fast." Asta was both amused and exasperated, but remained noncommittal.
After all, among the many geniuses, Herta has more contact with the outside world, and the composition of the Space Station is also more diverse.
Other geniuses might struggle to find people, but the Herta can simply send them directly to the Space Station.
Of course, after Asta arrived, she also privately asked Ruan Mei, who was also relatively worldly-wise, how she handled diplomatic matters.
Ruan Mei's answer was simple—those who don't want to go should just throw them in the trash.
A standard, genius-level solution.
No, it's possible that even geniuses are quite willful... l... i because after hearing this answer, Aista suddenly remembered that Ruan Mei might have thrown an invitation from the Herta.
"To be honest... I feel like they're both probably very tired?"
For a moment, Asta seemed to reveal a helpless, bitter smile typical of a corporate slave.
But then, Asta hesitated for a moment.
"No, perhaps it's more tiring on the Space Station, after all, the staff Space Station..."
They're all pretty damn bad.
Asta sometimes genuinely doubts herself: how could someone so idiotic be allowed to work on the Space Station?
There are also a lot of smaller groups that she has to keep an eye on every day, otherwise someone might cause trouble if she doesn't.
The worst part is that small groups are being created and disbanded every day.
... Well, although she also derived a lot of pleasure from watching these small groups' behavior.
Playing pranks on people is really fun.
However, Asta sometimes really feels that 90% of the staff on the Space Station are probably just "odd jobs".
She doesn't seem like a talent at all... Well, after learning from Ruan Mei that Ruan Mei was secretly raising insects at the Herta Space Station, Asta felt that she, as the station chief, wasn't so great after all.
... In the end, aren't they all just doing odd jobs for the Herta?
Especially myself.
Asta thought about the things she used to be in charge of, and it was actually quite a headache.
In this case, Liu Bai is the one who does the work.
The people below are all working.
If it weren't for regulations and rules, those capable people below wouldn't need to report work progress at all. They could easily handle this themselves if authority were delegated.
In terms of absolute workload, Asta could even be described as liberated.
... But from a spiritual perspective...
Yeah, I'm even more tired now.
"That's about it. The work pressure here is actually quite low, it's just that the BOSS can be a bit more... difficult to communicate with at times."
After briefly explaining the differences, Asta couldn't help but sigh.
"Why not just ignore it?" Rita for a moment and offered a very considerate suggestion.
"What? I don't care?" Asta's expression was subtle.
I shouldn't have said that, should I?
"Yes, whatever... In the end, why do you have to meddle in Liu Bai's private affairs, Asta?"
"Or you could shamelessly join us." Under Asta's bewildered gaze, Kafka aligned herself with Rita. "Asta, are you stopping the BOSS because of cheap justice or a sense of shame?"
"... Please don't use 'cheap' as a premise."
Asta's feelings toward Kafka were actually quite neutral—their opposing stances were quite serious before.
They were able to coexist peacefully because both of them were very "sociable".
"And let me tell you... isn't it your values that are flawed? Does anyone really want to see two or three worms during work hours?"
Asta said something that was somewhat embarrassing.
Then Asta saw that both of them had the same expression on their faces. "This child is really responsible."
So why are these two people forming a united front at this time?
"Generally speaking..."
