Honkai Impact Chapter 48

The Queen suddenly panicked a little, her body instinctively retreating a step. "You... you should know, I have no energy. You... don't come any closer, otherwise... otherwise I..."

The Queen wanted to issue a threat, but after thinking for a long time, she couldn't come up with anything else...

"Don't worry, I won't do anything to you. I just want you to eat something..."

Seeing the Queen's extreme reaction, Ling Feng felt a bit guilty. He might have gone a bit too far today. Although compared to what the Queen had done, what he did to her was nothing...

But Ling Feng really didn't want to force the Queen to eat using threats. That would only be a temporary fix, and the Queen's hatred for him would only grow...

"Really?"

The Queen looked at Ling Feng with some suspicion. In fact, she had already prepared herself to be kissed again. In her opinion, this pervert Ling Feng wouldn't let such an opportunity pass...

"It's true!"

Ling Feng nodded helplessly, holding up the lunch in his hand, and said with a smile, "I just want you to eat lunch, but I absolutely don't mean to threaten you with this. Even if you don't eat, I won't kiss you forcefully again. It was my fault today, I apologize, okay?"

The Queen was silent for a moment, then hesitated for a while, and said, "Human, if you want to apologize, then let me go!"

"What do you plan to do after I let you out?"

Ling Feng asked quietly.

"Hmph, of course, I'll find a place to recover my energy, then take back the gem, and finally destroy this world!" The Queen looked as if it were the most natural thing in the world to destroy the world.

Ling Feng: "..." Then why the hell do you think I'll let you out...

"In short, what do you want to eat?"

Ling Feng suppressed the urge to force the Queen to eat by kissing her and asked in a relatively kind tone.

"Hmph, I won't eat!"

But no matter how Ling Feng asked, the Queen's answer remained the same. "I won't eat a single bite of your food. I'd rather starve than eat it."

Ling Feng: "..." Lu Ren, don't push it too far, or I'll pin you to the ground and rub you back and forth...

"Hey, don't be like that. How about you eat a little? I... I'll feed you, how about that?"

Ling Feng picked up a spoon with one hand, scooped up a fish ball, and offered it to the Queen's mouth, smiling. "This is a specialty fish ball from Shanghai, it's delicious, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. One bite makes you want two, two bites make you want ten skewers."

However, even with the spoon offered to the Queen's mouth, the Queen still refused to eat...

A Herrscher must have backbone! I, Chu... I, the Honkai Queen, will never yield!

The situation seemed to have reached a stalemate again...

"Queen, do you really hate humans that much?"

Ling Feng put down the spoon and looked at the Queen quietly...

"Hmph, of course."

The Queen answered without hesitation, "My birth is for the destruction of humanity. The pain they once inflicted on me, I will return it all to them!"

"If it were Kiana, she would never do this."

Ling Feng said calmly...

"But I'm not Kiana, I am the Honkai Queen!" The Queen still had a cold and proud expression.

"But you are half Kiana."

Ling Feng said directly, "I won't hurt you. I hope you can believe me..."

"Heh, won't hurt me? Don't you want Kiana to regain consciousness?"

The Queen looked at Ling Feng with mockery and said coldly, "For Kiana to regain consciousness, doesn't that mean my consciousness will disappear? You say you won't hurt me, but every word you humans speak is filled with lies."

"I admit I do want to save Kiana, but... aren't you Kiana too?"

Ling Feng didn't refute the Queen's words, but instead smiled. "You are the fusion of Kiana and Sirin's consciousness, so you are also half Kiana. As long as you don't keep shouting about destroying the world, I don't mind you occupying the body."

"Hmph!"

The Queen snorted coldly for the umpteenth time, but she clearly didn't believe Ling Feng's words...

"Alright, let's talk about other issues later. Can you eat something first?"

As he spoke, he had drifted off topic again. Ling Feng once again raised the spoon and scooped up the fish ball. "Even if you want to destroy human civilization, you have to eat first. If you don't eat, you'll starve in a few days. If you starve to death, how will you destroy human civilization? So, please eat something, my beloved Queen."

Ling Feng didn't even know what he was saying. He was actually using the reason of destroying humanity to persuade the Queen to eat. If it weren't for the fact that this body was Kiana's, he wouldn't have been so patient in persuading her...

ps: Playing with the "true fragrance" meme is boring, but I just want to feed the Queen. I'll feed her mushrooms and chicken later!

Chapter 93: Let's Feed the Queen!

"Hmph!"

The Queen still didn't turn her head and said, "I am the Honkai Queen, how can I accept charity? I won't eat!"

Ling Feng: "..." Are you done or not...

"Then, Your Majesty, please have dinner!"

Ling Feng, helpless, could only bring the dinner to the Queen and said sincerely, "This is not charity, but a special offering from us insignificant humans who see you working hard to destroy the world. So, please eat, ah..."

As he spoke, Ling Feng once again extended the short spoon towards the Queen's small mouth...

"……"

The Queen glanced at Ling Feng, likely finding the human before her annoying. And… he smelled rather good…

This time, the Queen finally deigned to open her mouth…

"Here, it's very tasty…"

Seeing this, Ling Feng quickly extended the spoon into the Queen's mouth. His movements were cautious, extremely gentle, as if afraid the Queen would change her mind…

Finally, the Queen's open mouth closed again, the fish ball held within. Ling Feng withdrew the spoon. The Queen chewed silently…

"How is it, pretty good, right? Want another bite?"

Ling Feng asked tentatively, then raised the spoon again. This time, he scooped up a piece of meat…

Perhaps she tasted the delicious food, or perhaps the Queen was truly hungry, she finally stopped refusing and took the meat from the spoon in one bite…

"Hm?"

Then, Ling Feng noticed the Queen was actually crying…

"Hey, I'm just trying to get you to eat. You don't need to cry, do you?"

Ling Feng genuinely couldn't understand the Queen's situation. He just wanted her to eat something, why would she cry? He wasn't bullying her, at least not now…

"I…"

The Queen also seemed surprised. She reached up and touched her face, a look of astonishment on her expression. "Strange… I… why would I cry? But… I… this feeling, it seems like… nostalgia…"

The Queen herself didn't know why she was crying, but for some reason, she deeply liked this feeling from the bottom of her heart. This… must be the influence of Sirin and Kiana's consciousness, but…

Even though this was consciousness that had been abandoned by them, why was she still crying?

"Uh… here, don't cry, don't cry, keep eating…"

Ling Feng didn't dare to ask more and continued to feed the Queen. It had completely turned into a feeding play!

Afterward, the Queen would open her mouth, Ling Feng would feed her. It felt like a master feeding a pet, but the Queen was much more obedient than any pet he had ever owned…

"How is it, tasty?"

Seeing the Queen eating so smoothly, Ling Feng was somewhat relieved. At least this girl wasn't a picky eater…

"Hmph!"

The Queen let out her signature cold snort again, turning her head away, and said reluctantly, "Human, only your cooking is worth mentioning. The existence of cooking is probably the only reason humans should exist!"

"Ah…"

Then, the Queen opened her mouth again. The meaning was already very clear…

Ling Feng: "……"

Even though you didn't say it directly, I think your meaning is…

So delicious…

"Here's a bite, little brother… no, here's a bite, Queen!"

Ling Feng fed the Queen another piece of sausage, the crispy kind, and looked at the dwindling food on the plate. It looked really delicious, and he hadn't really eaten much at lunch himself. Seeing the Queen eating so happily now, he felt a bit hungry…

Maybe… he should have a bite too!

Well, it shouldn't matter, right? As for the spoon, they had already kissed so many times, indirect kisses, do you need to care about that? And the Queen's saliva also seems to…

Ling Feng silently scooped up a fish ball. Just as he was about to put it in his mouth, suddenly…

"Hey, human, what do you think you're doing?"

The Queen's hands quickly pressed down on Ling Feng's thighs, then she leaned forward, sticking her head right in front of Ling Feng. She took the spoon that Ling Feng was about to put in his mouth into her own mouth, and said while chewing, "Human, don't even think about stealing this Queen's cooking. This portion is mine. Every bite is mine. You're not allowed to eat a single bite, or I'll get angry!"

Ling Feng: "……" Why does the Queen seem a little abnormal…

Ultimately, under the Queen's strong possessiveness over her food, Ling Feng didn't get a single bite of the meal. Moreover, at the Queen's insistence, Ling Feng fed her the entire time. She finished the whole plate. Such an appetite…

Alright, after all, it's Kiana's body, so this appetite isn't surprising at all, is it?

"Um, Queen, remember to eat obediently from now on. I'm going to take my leave!"

Lunch was finished, and Ling Feng should be leaving. After saying a simple goodbye to the Queen, he picked up the empty plates and prepared to leave!

"Hmph!"

The Queen haughtily turned her head away, not even looking at Ling Feng…

Ling Feng couldn't be bothered to say anything more. He walked out of the room and closed the door behind him…

"Impressive, impressive!"

Stepping outside, Tesla clasped her hands together in a gesture of respect towards Ling Feng, and said with a smile, "Your Excellency not only managed to get the Queen to eat, but also to feed her. The Herrscher of the Void, actually conquered just like that. May I ask, Your Excellency, are you perhaps the legendary Casanova?"

Ling Feng: "……"

"Don't joke around…"

Ling Feng didn't know where Tesla had learned her wuxia-esque speech, but he felt it was out of place coming from her. He chuckled, "Brother, calling me Casanova is too kind. But if you ever go on a hunger strike yourself, I wouldn't mind feeding you!"

"Eh…"

Tesla's face flushed slightly, and then she haughtily lifted her head. "Hmph, I would never go on a hunger strike. Food is too delicious; only a fool would starve themselves..."

Then Tesla suddenly realized something was off...

"Hmm? Ling Feng, you... just called me 'brother'? Isn't that a term for men?"

Although Tesla wasn't from Shenzhou, she was quite familiar with its terms. The address 'brother' was clearly an ancient way of referring to male friends!

"No, no, no, 'brother' is just a term. I called you brother not because you're a man, but because I see you as a bro!"

Ling Feng patted Tesla's shoulder and chuckled, "Ever since I entered St. Freya Academy, you've always been helping me. At crucial moments, you were the only one willing to lend me money without ever mentioning repayment. I remember this kindness; it's brotherhood!"

"I..."

Seeing me as a brother... Tesla wanted to say something, no, she absolutely had to say something...

Damn it, my ass, fuck you...

Of course, Tesla didn't end up saying it. She had to maintain her image. If she swore, her image in Ling Feng's eyes would be completely ruined...

"Ling Feng, actually, you don't have to do this!"

Even though she was being treated as a brother, Tesla forced a smile. "We don't need to be so formal with each other. Don't call me 'brother' either; just call me by my name. Either Nikola or Tesla is fine, after all, I'm a girl, hehe, mhm..."

Tesla acted very demurely, with a smile on her face, appearing as a well-behaved, cute, and ladylike young woman...

ps: Do you guys like slice-of-life? If not, I'll prepare to skip it and jump straight into the next main storyline!

Actually, I think slice-of-life is just blatant padding, but without the slice-of-life setup, it feels like the romance develops too quickly. We can't have the Queen being forcefully pushed into a relationship again and again, right? Especially since this is Kiana. What if one day a white-haired person shows up with the Heavenly Sword Judgment looking for her... Waiting online, it's urgent!
