A Gaming Wager with Cecilia (Continued)
She wasn't very familiar with many common-sense things outside of combat, let alone such rare fragrant lilies.
Bai Ge placed the Abyss Flower in her hand on the end of her hair, adding a touch of sanctity to this pure and innocent girl.
"Its flower name Casablanca Lily, also known as the White House. Its flower language is eternity, nobility, and undying love. It's one of my favorite flowers. And let me tell you a secret: in a certain special world, it's also called the Cecilia flower."
"Huh? Cecilia Flower? This name..." Her mouth gaped slightly in surprise.
"That's right, just like you, what a coincidence, isn't it?"
Bai Ge chuckled and said, "In a world called Teyvat, this flower does indeed have this name."
In his previous life, Bai had even compared pictures of Casablanca Lily and Cecilia flowers for a long time to confirm that they looked exactly the same.
Cecilia touched the Abyss Flower on the end of her hair and felt that she liked it even more than before.
At the same time, she also felt very happy.
Although they had only spent a short time together, she had already learned a lot of new knowledge from Bai Ge.
However, the flower's symbolism of "unfading love" made Cecilia feel embarrassed, after all, she was still just an innocent girl who had never even experienced first love.
(The meaning of this flower is too distant for me.)
As Cecilia thought this, her gaze involuntarily drifted to the boy beside her.
After that, the two took a car to the next location.
"Alright, now it's time for the main course!" Bai Ge said.
"This place is!" Cecilia exclaimed, her eyes widening.
Pleasant music, dazzling daytime fireworks, non-stop laughter, and a yellow rabbit—she looked with delight at the amusement park before her, which resembled the entrance to a dream world.
"In the past, when my travel companions and I traveled around the world, if a city we stayed in had an amusement park, it was a must-visit! And if I'm not mistaken..."
As Bai Ge held Cecilia's hand and they stepped into the HOMU Amusement Park, the cannons fired again, and countless ribbons rained down on them once more.
"Congratulations on becoming our 1,000,000th guest! You can enjoy all the attractions and services in the park for free, and without having to wait in line!"
"Yeah, I knew it."
Bai Ge said he wasn't surprised at all. He gave a thumbs up in the direction of the Gray Serpent and then pulled Cecilia was looking on with anticipation, into the room.
However, what surprised him was...
Bai Ge realized that he didn't have much fun this time, and could even say he didn't feel anything at all.
(That's weird. I used to have so much fun when I came here with Aili and Kiana. These rides are pretty much the same no matter which amusement park you go to. So why am I finding it so boring this time?)
Not only Bai Ge, but Cecilia also showed a subtle expression after experiencing several activities.
"Cecilia, are you bored?"
"No, that's not true. It's very interesting."
"Alright, alright, you're not the kind of person who's good at lying, because your expression tells you everything. For S-Rank Valkyrie, roller coasters and drop towers are both very slow, right?"
"... Um, it seems so."
Cecilia chuckled. Her daily training was far more demanding than anything the Assassin Princess did on roller coasters. Bai Ge patted her shoulder understandingly, saying that some of them couldn't even run as fast as the two of them.
The two of them sat there so calmly that the surrounding passengers were too embarrassed to scream.
However, the haunted house was quite effective on Cecilia.
In the pitch-black environment, a staff member suddenly jumped out from behind the two of them. Wearing a bloody zombie headgear, he startled Cecilia, and then... the staff member almost died.
In a moment of desperation, the S-Rank Valkyrie unleashed a full-force punch. If Bai Ge hadn't blocked it in time, the staff member playing the zombie would probably be a real corpse now.
However, Bai was still somewhat happy.
Cecilia was so frightened that she threw herself into his arms. In the end, her legs were so weak that she couldn't walk, and Bai Ge had to carry her out.
"I'm sorry, I've caused you trouble again Bai Ge."
Cecilia said, feeling embarrassed.
Although she had fought many Honkai Beasts in the virtual space of Schicksal, to be honest, the Honkai Beast didn't look scary at all, at least not as scary as this haunted house that was built specifically to scare people.
"It's nothing, it's a lucky event for me."
Bai Ge waved his hand to indicate that he didn't care, but since Cecilia was really frightened, the two decided to sit for a while to calm down.
Looking at the couples in the amusement park, Bai Ge seemed to understand why she felt bored.
Amusement parks were already boring places for him, and having been there so many times, Bai Ge was already quite tired of them.
The reason he always found it fun was simply because he had the girl he liked by his side.
With girls like Elysia, Kiana, Mei, and Bronya around her, even the most mundane activities that she should find boring and tedious, Bai Ge always manages to have a lot of fun.
Because what you play is actually not important at all.
What truly matters are the happy times spent with your loved ones.
The reason why Bai Ge didn't have that feeling when he was with Cecilia was that his feelings for her hadn't reached that level yet. He liked her, but he wouldn't say he loved her.
Cecilia is the same in this respect.
She was very grateful to Bai Ge and indeed had a good impression of the young man, but their relationship had not yet broken through that barrier.
Although... she's not far away either.
"Oh, right, I've thought of something you might like," Bai Ge said suddenly.
"Huh? Something I would like?"
Cecilia blinked, somewhat surprised. She herself didn't know what she liked. In the past, her only wish as a young girl was to see the outside world.
Today, this wish has come true, and in a way that far exceeds Cecilia's expectations. She is being pulled around by the White Youth in front of her, experiencing one new thing after another that she has never experienced before.
Cecilia was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling.
This unconsciously generated even more expectations in her.
She wanted Bai Ge to keep taking her to more places.
The two then went to the arcade inside the amusement park.
Bai Ge's lips curled up slightly. Those erotic entertainment activities were too bland for them, but these competitive games could still make them feel interesting.
Moreover, Cecilia is actually a gaming genius.
In the original storyline, Otto's first encounter with a video game resulted in him brutally defeating a white-haired husky belonging to Kaslana, and his performance in "Kallen Fantasy" was once completely overwhelmed by Cecilia...
Ultimately, unable to defeat the troll no matter what they did, they had no choice but to resort to the unethical act of banning her account.
Bai Ge: (You can't take this lying down, you little trash, you have no skill at all!)
In short, Cecilia's gaming talent might even surpass Bronya's!
And this has indeed proven to be true.
"These are so interesting, hey!"
"Whoosh~"
Seeing Cecilia achieve a perfect score with headshots every time she tried a shooting game for the first time, Bai Ge couldn't help but whistle to show how awesome she was.
He then achieved the same result, not to be outdone, after all, Bai was also a pro gamer.
Even Bronya was defeated, and she had broken through Otto's defenses several times with his specialty, "Kallen Fantasy".
"Cecilia, how about we have a contest?"
"Okay, I won't lose!"
"That's impressive. In that case, how about we increase the stakes? After all, there are still a few Assassin Princesses today. Adding some stakes will make things a bit more exciting."
Bai Ge brandished the game pistol and said something.
"I don't think betting is a good idea, but as long as the stakes aren't too high, it should be fine." Cecilia also somewhat eager to try. "Bai Ge, what do you want to do?"
"It's simple. If I lose, I'll grant you any reasonable request. In return, if Cecilia loses, she'll grant me one reasonable request. How about that?"
"...Yes! I agree!" Cecilia nodded in agreement after a slight hesitation.
"Oh? You're hesitating slower than I expected. Could it be that you really want me to do something?" Bai Ge, somewhat surprised.
"Hmm! I'll tell you after I win."
Cecilia said with a smile.
She did have something she wanted to do: see what Bai Ge looked like behind the mask.
The White Youth's appearance is, for Cecilia at this moment, the world's greatest unsolved mystery.
"Hehe~ It just so happens that I also have something I want you to do."
Bai Ge cocked the toy gun in his hand, and then the two stood side by side, aiming the gun at the game screen in front of them.
A masked, charismatic young man and a stunningly beautiful, ethereal young woman quickly attracted a crowd of onlookers, who were all utterly astonished.
The two players' gaming skills were so high that everyone thought the world champions had arrived, but that idea was quickly dispelled.
Even world champions aren't as awesome as these two.
