The Savior?

Well, okay, Eden is that size after all.

The strong should humiliate the weak.

"Then I'll try talking to Sara about it."

Although I feel that given Sara's personality, it's unlikely she would...

Acheron suddenly tugged at Liu Bai from the side.

"... Sara?"

Liu Lingbai looked up from her dream and saw Kujou Sara Kyoko leaning against the railing on the second floor, her expression complicated.

As a guard, Kujou Sara only came to see if Liu Bai was going to sneak off to another place... but she ended up hearing such a remark.

My own breasts...

My feelings are complicated.

Kujou Sara was not a sentimental or pretentious woman. She was even treated like a boy when she was young and didn't receive any special treatment during her military training.

She would even get angry if someone looked down on her because of her gender.

Therefore... she shouldn't care about this kind of evaluation.

But...

Okay, as a normal woman rather than a muscular tomboy, Kujou Sara has obviously controlled her physique—even if it's for better fighting.

Childhood is still childhood, and this isn't a battlefield or any formal occasion.

The people discussing this were not his own subordinates who were slacking off.

They're just making things up.

So... I have mixed feelings.

"It's okay, I don't mind."

Kujou Sara tried her best to appear as composed as possible.

The most crucial point is Eden's figure... there's really no way to criticize it.

If two men were discussing this, Kujou Sara might dismiss it with disdain, but Eden... as a woman with normal aesthetics and gender awareness, Kujou Sara was indeed a little... hurt?

In short, I want to say something, but I'm at a loss for words.

Frustrating...

"Good afternoon, Ms. Kujou."

Good afternoon, Eden.

The two greeted each other very politely.

"Um, Sara," Shiro called out to Kujou Sara, "You just heard that, didn't you..."

"I'm sorry, I refuse. My orders are to serve as your bodyguard."

Kujou Sara refused without even thinking.

Putting aside the fact that Eden's purpose in seeking him out had nothing to do with being a guard, just considering the modeling job...

Is this something she's capable of doing?

Even with someone of the same sex, Kujou Sara doesn't want to expose her skin in front of them.

Let alone Eden, whom he was not very familiar with, even if it were his own general, Kujou Sara would refuse the order unless absolutely necessary.

A strong sense of self-esteem means a strong sense of shame.

—A strong sense of shame means that when it comes to flirting... okay, I'm getting off-topic.

Eden tilted his head.

The command received...?

My agent is definitely no ordinary person, isn't he?

Eden didn't have any particular feelings about Kujou Sara's rejection.

In Kujou Sara was only a "barely qualified model" to her, the kind that was just there to make do. If the other party didn't agree, Eden had nothing to regret.

But then again, my manager could actually be used as a male model...

"Eden, are you thinking about something dangerous?"

"No."

Being a male model isn't dangerous at all... although Eden has never been involved in this area either.

"Liu Bai, please come upstairs. I have some matters to discuss with you."

"Oh, I'm coming right now, excuse me, Eden."

"It's alright, you can go ahead and do your work."

Eden deduced that the two were about to discuss something important, something she definitely shouldn't have overheard.

So I lost all curiosity.

Liu Bai and Acheron went upstairs and entered Kujou Sara's room.

Kujou Sara knelt on the floor, with two futons placed opposite her for Liu Bai and Acheron to sit on.

Hmm... Apart from a few more Raiden Shogun figurines, this place is completely unchanged from the beginning, which shows that Kujou Sara has basically no material desires.

"I never expected you and Miss Eden to talk about that kind of topic." Sara's tone was slightly helpless.

"Eden started the conversation... Don't you also think Eden's requirements regarding breasts are a bit too demanding?"

Acheron: "?"

Are you here to discuss something like this?

Acheron glanced down at himself... He shouldn't be that much smaller than that Eden, right?

"..." Sara was subtle.

Even she couldn't calmly discuss such a private topic as breasts with a man she wasn't very familiar with!

Ah... thinking about it this way, Miss Eden is really amazing.

No, perhaps it's precisely because the other person is approaching this from a purely artistic perspective that they can talk to men about this so calmly?

It seems I was too narrow-minded...

"Hmm... maybe."

Out of politeness and because she needed a favor, Kujou Sara responded to Liu Bai's question and could no longer remain silent.

However, Kujou Sara agreed with Liu Bai's statement— Eden's requirements for breasts were too harsh.

Am I... not big enough?

"Ah, speaking of your Yae Miko... no, it's nothing."

Liu Bai suddenly thought of Yae Miko. Yae Miko is a classic character whose model and illustration are relatively small, but whose fan art or congratulatory illustrations are much larger.

Liu Bai hadn't really noticed what was going on on the Yae Miko's chest before...

The reason Liu Yibai stopped the conversation was quite simple—he wanted to talk about the Yae Miko's breasts in front of Kujou Sara's face.

Qun

Is this something a decent person would do?

"Yae Miko? Oh, right, this is what the Yae Miko Child asked me to tell you."

Kujou Sara obviously didn't realize that Liu Bai would mention Yae Miko when talking about the chest area, and immediately suppressed the extra expression on her face, revealing a serious look.

"The Yae Miko says that the Shogun has agreed to this trip to the heavens and hopes that you can make preparations as soon as possible."

"Your decision-making speed is even faster than I expected," Bai said, slightly surprised.

"The Shogun, your words are as good as gold."

Kujou Sara sighed. To be honest, she was a true member of the opposition party.

Especially now that the situation is becoming increasingly chaotic, if it weren't for the general's personal order, she would have wanted to go back and plead with him to the death.

But her general's will is her will.

Now that the general has made his decision, she will carry it out.

Then.

Kujou Sara knelt deeply before Liu Bai.

"I entrust the safety of the Shogun to you... No matter what happens in the end, Sara hope you will do your best."

Although Kujou Sara blindly trusted his shogun, he was also quite rational and knew that treatment... could potentially fail.

Everything carries the risk of failure.

"I've already decided on the initial treatment method. Now we're just waiting for your general. Don't worry, I still want to win over the whole Inazuma."

Liu Bai looked at Kujou Sara, who was bowing to her, and tried to make her tone sound calm and confident—that's the kind of comfort she needed right now.

[Kujou Sara Favorability: 2025]

"... Thank you very much, please forgive my intrusion."

Kujou Sara's face showed a hint of relief upon hearing this.

"Actually, the matter I wanted to discuss with you is that this morning, Yae Miko and La Signora. Yelan went to the Chamber of Commerce together."

"And then what happened?"

"It's suspected to be murder to cover up the crime. There were seventeen people in total, all of whom committed suicide in a very simple and brutal way. We can only rely on La Signora. Yelan to track down the clues herself. According to La Signora. Yelan, it will take about a week."

"A week... then we can only trust Yelan."

After all, Yelan was the expert in this field. Although Liu Bai felt that something was not quite right, he still chose to believe Yelan.

Wait a minute, isn't this a bit like setting a flag?

... Generally speaking, if you feel something is wrong, it means there really is something wrong, right?

Chapter 88 The Savior?

"I still feel a little uneasy, maybe I should go with Yelan— "

Knock knock.

"Hey, Liu Bai, are you there?"

Yelan's voice came from outside.

"Speak of the devil and he appears." Bai got up and went to the entrance to open the door.

"You've come at the perfect time; I was just looking for you."

Liu Bai opened the door and looked at Yelan, who had changed into clothes he was familiar with... By the way, is this outfit a uniform?

"Looking for me?" Yelan, who was about to casually remove the Xiapie from her shoulders and drape it over Liu Bai's shoulders, paused for a moment. "Uh... serious business?"

"Otherwise what?"

"So you're a boring person. Being calm and honest is a point against you in my eyes."

As Yelan spoke, she casually draped a pure white, fluffy Xiapie over Liu Bai.

That should prevent Liu Bai from misunderstanding anything, right?

Although it was somewhat casual, the gift itself was quite valuable...

Seven

Hmm... but seriously, this person and these clothes suit each other way too well...

"Don't you want your shawl anymore?"

"Mind your own business... cough, um, here you go, it's my personal shawl, don't use it for anything weird."

Sure enough, this guy couldn't recognize something as obscure as Xiapie.
