Sakura: "May This Moment Become Eternity" (Continued)

"Brother Bai?!"

Looking at the handsome, godlike White Youth in front of her, and Sakura standing beside him, Rin rubbed her eyes in astonishment before realizing that she had hugged the wrong person.

"Long time no see! Here, a gift for you~"

Bai Ge handed the animal plush toys she had bought to Ling.

"Thank you, thank you! But Brother Bai... Brother-in-law, what brings you to my house?"

"My accommodation at the base is in trouble and I can't use it for the time being, so I'll stay at your place for a while."

"Waaah, even the savior needs a place to live..."

"If you're not welcome, I'll leave."

"Hey, hey~ no, no, no, welcome, welcome! A warm welcome! Brother-in-law, please come inside, I'll get you some slippers!"

Ling quickly took out a pair of men's slippers from the shoe cabinet and placed them in front of Bai Ge's feet. They were obviously new and fit perfectly. Bai Ge looked at the girl with some surprise.

(I anticipated this might happen, so I bought Brother Bai's slippers a long time ago. I was so clever.)

Ling gave herself a thumbs up.

"Sis, what are you standing there for? Come inside!"

"Okay, I'll be right there."

Sakura, standing at the door, was still in a daze.

While it was indeed necessary for Bai Ge to keep his younger sister within sight at all times in order to stop Rin from becoming Herrscher in time, Sakura really didn't expect it to develop into living together!

The fox-eared girl was still a little dizzy at this moment.

(I'm so glad I had some free time the day before yesterday to do a thorough cleaning of the house. I hope Rin didn't make the floor dirty. I need to make a big meal today, but there's no guest room, so where should Bai Ge sleep... Hmm, she can sleep with me.)

Sakura took a few deep breaths to calm herself down. At this moment, she felt that her younger sister becoming Herrscher wasn't all bad...

"Ring, you're so bad. I'll play with you with one hand."

"Waaaah! Brother-in-law, how come you're so good at video games?!"

"Talent, huh? That combo is pretty good."

"That's right, I've been trying for ages! Hey? Brother-in-law, how did you get cracked so quickly!"

On the sofa, Bai Ge and Ling were already playing an online game. Ying's mouth was slightly open, thinking that they were moving too fast.

Ling sat on Bai Ge's lap, pressing the controller repeatedly, while Bai held down the girl's restless white-stockinged feet with one hand and easily killed her with the other.

"..."

This scene left Sakura momentarily stunned.

Yesterday in the Golden Courtyard, the great savior who announced himself to be a person from 50,000 years in the future and pointed out the path for humanity to overcome the Honkai was revealed.

At this moment, he is sitting on his sofa at home like an ordinary teenager, playing an online game with his younger sister.

The stark contrast caused Sakura's mind to go blank.

But...

"Ring, let me teach you, this trick works even better this way."

"Brother-in-law, you're a genius!"

"That's right~ Let's play another round after we've learned it."

"Oh, let's team up and play matchmaking. I'll handle the laughing, and you can go on a rampage, brother-in-law."

There wasn't the slightest sense of incongruity.

Seeing Bai Ge already getting along so well with his younger sister, he played the game more seriously than when fighting Honkai Beast, and his facial expressions became very rich.

He'll smirk when using gadgets to make things harder for the opponent, and he'll immediately retaliate after being criticized on mic. When he's dragged down by the bell, he'll choose to play another round in exasperation.

Sakura suddenly felt that this was the real him.

"By the way, Bai Ge seems to be younger than me..."

Recalling the publicly available information online, Sakura suddenly remembered that Bai Ge was actually two years younger than her.

Well, strictly speaking, it's over 50,000 years old.

"..."

Sakura was momentarily stunned.

Bai Ge had always seemed too reliable, causing Sakura to subconsciously overlook his age. But now, the fox-eared girl realized that he was indeed a boy.

"Sis~ I'm hungry, when will the food be ready?"

Ling turned around and asked, "It's lunchtime now, but I woke up so late that I didn't even have breakfast."

Hearing her younger sister say she was hungry, Sakura immediately snapped out of her daze.

"Um, I'll do it right away, it'll only take an hour. Remember to wash your hands after you finish playing games with Bai Ge."

Sakura then went into her bedroom, changed her Moth Chasing Fire combat suit into loose-fitting loungewear, and skillfully tied on a pink apron before heading into the kitchen.

"Sakura, this outfit suits you very well."

Bai Ge admired it for a moment and then sincerely praised it.

Sakura's white loungewear paired with a pink apron, though simple, highlights her virtuous and gentle nature. Without her Moth Chasing Fire combat outfit and the Frozen Naraka set, apart from her fox ears, Sakura looks like an ordinary, virtuous young girl.

She's the kind of woman who's perfect to marry.

"As expected, Sakura, you're much better suited to holding a kitchen knife than the Frozen Naraka. Let me help with the cooking..."

"Hey? Bai Ge, you can cook too?"

Sakura looked visibly surprised, and almost dropped the kitchen knife in her hand.

"Didn't I say that? I'm a very good cook."

Bai Ge moved the bell from her lap to the side.

Then he activated the power of the Herrscher of Reason and constructed an apron for himself. At the same time, he also made a word "special" surrounded by a dragon on the clothes on his left arm.

Sakura immediately sensed the aura of a powerful figure.

Imagine that in the Valkyrie dormitory of St. Freya, there were four super-powerful beings who controlled the kitchen: Raiden Mei, the cook from Honkai Impact 3rd; Fu Hua, the Scarlet Kite Immortal; Rita, the perfect maid; and Bai Ge, the powerful chef.

All four of them have their own unique skills.

Bai Ge's unique skill is the least likely to be imitated, because he excels at using his diverse Herrscher Authority to create cooking methods that are considered dreamlike by outsiders.

"It feels like a long time ago!"

Even though it had been several years since she had stepped into the sacred realm of the kitchen, Bai Ge's culinary skills were by no means rusty.

After all, the Herrscher of Reason can turn an action into muscle memory, or rather, engrave it directly into their DNA.

Bai has inscribed quite a few strange skills for himself, and Star of Eden is just one of them.

"Wow, that's strong!"

Watching Bai Ge skillfully handle the ingredients, just like a seasoned restaurant chef, Ying couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

"I can't lose either."

Although humble people may not say it, every skilled chef has their own pride. Mei and Rita are like that, as are Bai Ge and Sakura.

Sakura's eyes sharpened, and she resumed her preparations, starting to process the ingredients in front of her. Although not as glamorous and elegant as Bai Ge, her quick and efficient movements were equally captivating.

"Wow~"

Ling had already put the game aside; she found the two of them cooking much more interesting to watch.

Bai Ge's cooking was like a magician performing magic, while Ying's cooking was like an assassin's swift and decisive movements. Ling swallowed, thinking that it seemed she was in for a treat today.

The lunch, which was originally expected to take an hour to prepare, was completed in less than half an hour with Bai Ge's help.

Sakura and Rin's dining table wasn't very big; they each made three dishes and it was almost too small to fit them all.

"Ahem! Now, I'll be the judge. I swear on my allowance for the next month, I won't show favoritism to either my sister or my brother-in-law. I guarantee fairness and impartiality!"

Ling stared intently at the dishes on the table, raising her hand to wipe away the drool that was about to overflow.

"Alright, then let Ling decide." Bai Ge said confidently, arms crossed.

"Hehe, Rin, you really can't show favoritism." Sakura was equally confident.

However, Sakura was still shocked that Bai Ge could cook.

It wasn't that she found it strange, but rather that Bai Ge was so extraordinary that when he displayed such an ordinary skill, Ying couldn't help but feel quite surprised.

On the other side, Ling couldn't wait to pick up her chopsticks and try the dishes made by Bai Ge and Ying.

"!!!"

After taking a bite, Ling's pupils trembled violently.

At that moment, she made up her mind that even if it was just for the sake of her future food, she had to bring these two together! Sakura and Bai Ge's cooking made her feel so delicious that her clothes were about to burst open.

Then she took a deep breath, looked at the two of them, and said.

"Sis... you lost."
