What Bad Intentions Could a Kitty Possibly Have?

After playing games with Pardo and Disaster in their room for a while, Elysia returned to her room with Zhu Yufeng and Sakura. Seeing Sakura still reading, she couldn't help but ask curiously, "Sakura, what book are you reading?"

"It's a classic European novel." Sakura closed the book and showed the cover to Elysia. "This was given to me by Maple. Because of his injured left hand, he has been unable to move around much these past few days, so he gave me this book to pass the time."

"Oh, Feng gave it to you? He does have a love for reading." Elysia seemed to remember something and said somewhat dejectedly, "But I remember the habit of bringing books on missions only started after the Seventh Herrscher Incident... I only heard from others that he often brought books on missions. When he was in my team, although he also liked to read, he never brought books on missions. And I don't even know what kind of books he likes to read."

"Judging from the book he gave me, he doesn't seem to like fairy tale books," Sakura said.

"Aren't fairy tale books good?" Elysia said, glancing at the cover of the book in Sakura's hand. "I don't think I've read this book before... Sakura, after you finish reading it, I'll ask him to lend it to me. After all, that way I can learn more about Kaede."

Cherry. "..."

Elysia hasn't had a moment's peace these past few days... What did Lilith say to her that triggered her?

But when I think about Lilith, everything seems normal. First, there was that time at the Eden concert when she stole a kiss from Maple, and this time she didn't even bother to act anymore, just kissing her right in front of Elysia and her... Everything she says to Elysia seems normal.

After a while, just as Sakura opened the book again to continue reading, Elysia spoke up again, "Sakura, do you miss your hometown?"

Sakura looked up at Elysia with a puzzled expression and said, "Elysia, I don't understand what you mean... If you mean in the last life, when we were in the later stages of fighting the Honkai... you should still have wanted to see the cherry blossoms in our hometown with Rin one more time. But... after the Twelfth Herrscher Incident, I returned to the Far East alone and all I saw was scorched earth and ruins. I didn't see a single cherry blossom. That was when I missed my hometown the most."

"Is that so?" Elysia said thoughtfully. "Then... at that time, if I gave you a chance to give up everything you have now, would you be willing to go back? To return to the hometown of memories before the Honkai occurred and continue living there?"

"Of course I would," Sakura said without hesitation.

"Even if you never have the chance to meet us again?" Elysia pressed, "You will still remember us, and we will remain a memory for you, a memory that is like a dream, a memory that never existed."

Sakura paused for a moment, then hesitated. She finally understood what Elysia meant, which was basically asking if she was willing to give up her relationships with everyone else, return to the hometown in her memories, and start a life where she would never meet anyone else.

To be honest, it is actually quite tempting.

She has a homeland that hasn't Honkai, and her younger sister is by her side. She can watch Rin grow up and see that Rin also has someone she likes...

The person I like...

Sakura's mind conjured up that person's image. She paused for a moment, then chose not to answer the question, "None of what you said will happen. This question and its answer are meaningless..."

"Is that so..." Elysia looked at Sakura. She could tell that Sakura was hesitating. She didn't press her for more information. Instead, she went to the bedside and stared blankly at the rain outside the window.

Sakura looked down at her book, but her mind was completely elsewhere. She didn't know why Elysia would suddenly ask such a question. However, Elysia would occasionally ask questions that were difficult to answer, so Sakura didn't think about it from any other angle.

Because Elysia had also asked Kevin which side Kevin would choose if sacrificing her alone could save the majority of people.

So, can this question be seen as Elysia asking herself, which side to choose between her hometown and Maple?

As for Feng... well... she admits that she likes Feng, but she really has no intention of getting involved in the struggle between Elysia and the others. As long as she can see Feng every day and experience the end of this fire-chasing conquest with him, that's the same.

Moreover, after meeting Lilith, she felt even less confident that she could outplay two high-level players like Elysia and Lilith.

Vill-V should be considered a high-level player. Although her Evil style of doing things is a bit perverse, it has to be admitted that it is indeed effective.

If the price of a peaceful life is that Feng will forever remain in a dreamlike memory within herself...

"I might... choose to maintain the status quo..." Sakura said softly.

A peaceful life—that's all she has now. As for her hometown? She can go back and visit whenever she has the chance, so it's not something she needs to give up everything she has now.

Elysia glanced back at Sakura, then continued looking at the rain without saying a word.

She didn't actually want Sakura to give her any particular answer; she just wanted to ask and see how others would choose. However, she quickly realized that for Sakura, or rather for everyone else in the world, the concept of "hometown" was something they could access. They could see it on a map, go back anytime, and receive information about their hometown. Ultimately, it was different from Kaede's situation.

I've heard that if a wanderer who has been away from his hometown for more than ten years were to have the chance to return, he would definitely do it without hesitation. Feng is probably the same way now. Counting his experiences in his previous life, he has also been away from home for more than ten years.

"Then... if he could form a family with Feng, would he choose to stay?" This thought inexplicably flashed through Elysia's mind. "If he were Lilith, she would probably try to go back with Feng, right?"

On the other side.

After Elysia left, Pardo looked at Disaster and said, "After Sister Elysia that Brother Yu Feng was pulled away by Amo to talk about some secrets between guys, I wanted to ask, Sister Daisy, how far have you and Amo gone? Amo wanted to tell Brother Yu Feng must have something to do with you."

"Absolutely no progress." Disaster squinted and complained, "You saw what kind of person Amo, Sister Daisy Pardo. I know you wanted to fight for us back then, but look, that guy Amo practically stole the keys and ran away..."

"After all, it's Amo ..." Pardo chuckled dryly.

"Let's not talk about Amo anymore. It makes me angry. Instead of worrying about me and Amo, Little Pardo, what do you think of Feng now?" Disaster asked.

"What do you mean, how do you see it?" Pardo, confused. "Just look at it like this. We think life is pretty good right now."

"No, little Pardo, why are you giving up so easily?" Disaster tried to encourage her. "Or have you finally come to your senses and decided not to put all your eggs in one basket?"

"Ah, so that's what you meant, Sister Daisy." Pardo said with a "I've come to terms with it" expression. "Of course I still like Brother Yu Feng, I did before, the Present, and... of course I still do."

"Then you should try harder," Disaster said.

Pardo looked at Disaster with narrowed eyes. "Don't we want to fight for it? But Sister Daisy, have you ever thought that our opponent is a bit too outrageous?"

"Well..."

Pardo started counting on her fingers. "Let's not even talk about Sister Elysia. The Present, she's trying her best to stay with Brother Yu Feng, and Brother Yu Feng doesn't mind Sister Elysia either. Then there's Mobius and Sister Vill-V. They can help Brother Yu Feng with technical things. Which one can we compare to? How can we win them over?"

Not to mention there's also Lilith, the all-around deputy who will kill the Fire Moth sooner or later.

To be even more audacious, we could include Sister Nia from Dusk Street, since Sister Nia always says things that are incomprehensible but somehow related to Brother Yu Feng when she's not around...

And Sakura-nee, the Present fighter...

Hiss... Pardo thinks she's just a harmless cat, she can't beat any of these, she's giving up, giving up, there's nothing that giving up can't solve.

The Present, isn't this kind of life pretty good? I can see Brother Yu Feng almost every day, and Brother Yu Feng cares about me, so... it doesn't seem like a big deal. And watching Sister Elysia and Sister Lilith get the short end of the stick isn't so bad either.

She Brother Yu Feng: Sister Lilith kissed him again in front of Sister Elysia. She really is Sister Lilith... Pado doesn't know what Sister Elysia Pardo's expression was at the time, but it must have been very interesting.

Sister Elysia doesn't get frustrated very often.

The Present the girls who like Brother Yu Feng, only Sister Elysia and Lilith can be considered high-level players, right?

If the opponent is someone like Hua, then Pardo will definitely not be afraid, and may even feel that she can win easily. But for other opponents, forget about it, as they might be in mortal danger.

For example, Mobius can transform herself into "Pardo" and "Phyllis", and Vill-V has fooled herself more than once or twice... Especially Mobius is really not someone to mess with. Apart from Sister Elysia and Vill-V, no one dares to joke with her. Vill-V may be more easy to talk to in her true form, but the Magician and the Evil are a different story.

Upon hearing Pardo's remarks, Disaster choked. Little Pardo's words did indeed make sense. If she were in Little Pardo's position, she would also be desperate. It wasn't that she didn't try hard enough, but that the opponents were all a bunch of gods fighting.

"Then... Little Pardo, don't you want to think about finding someone else? Are you just going to keep insisting on this?" Disaster asked. "After all, you're still young, maybe your feelings for Maple aren't as strong as you think?"

"We don't intend to compete with Sister Elysia and the others, but that doesn't mean we'll give up our feelings for Brother Yu Feng." Pardo shrugged. "Don't worry, Sister Daisy, some feelings become simple once you understand them."

As long as she doesn't get involved on the surface, she'll eventually be able to snag a bargain, but Pardo will absolutely never reveal this.

"I really don't know what's so great about Feng that makes you so unwilling to give up even if you're no longer competing with him," Disaster said, squinting. She admitted that Zhu Yufeng was excellent, a top student, but he wasn't that outstanding, was he? Xiao Pardo is also a treasure girl, so why is she so fixated on him?

"You'll understand later. How should I put it? It was Brother Yu Feng who saved my life," Pardo said with a smile.

It wasn't just once. Even if their first encounter in Dusk Street was an accident, during the War of Finality, it was a genuine act that saved him.

When she first became the Fusion Warrior, Fire Moth, and was both curious and afraid of the new and unfamiliar environment, it was she who reached out to him and the Fallen Angel. Xila was the first friend that Fire Moth made.

She had long known that as an ordinary person, she was destined to be vastly different from a Heroes like Brother Yu Feng. Even though Brother Yu Feng believed that Heroes were once ordinary people, Pardo still felt that while ordinary people could become Heroes, sometimes, Heroes were born Heroes.

Putting aside everything else, just after the twelfth incident, when Mobius angrily revealed the truth about Brother Yu Feng's physical condition, Pardo asked herself honestly, she couldn't bear it.

So, she's long since come to terms with this. She won't give up, but she won't actively pursue it either. She'll wait for an opportunity and let things take their course.

What bad intentions could a cat possibly have? It just waits until everyone else is getting intimate before rubbing against the person it likes. What bad intentions could it possibly have?

"It's a life-saving grace." Disaster suddenly realized, and she also saw Pardo's determination, so she stopped trying to persuade her.

Pardo then added, "It's actually just like you and Amo, Sister Daisy. If an outstanding girl who likes Amo also appeared in his life, would you give up?"

"Of course not, Amo and I like each other..." Disaster blurted out, then looked at the happy-smiling Pardo and realized that Pardo had tricked her into telling the truth. She was annoyed and embarrassed, so she reached out and pinched Pardo's cheek. "You little Pardo, you even tricked your Sister Daisy into telling the truth, didn't you?"

Pardo raised her hands in surrender. "Okay, okay, Sister Daisy, stop pinching me. We didn't mean anything by it. Who told you to question our feelings for Brother Yu Feng?"

"You..." Disaster let go, sighing helplessly, "Just one Amo is enough to give me trouble, and you, Pardo, are no less troublesome!"

"Maybe in Amo's eyes, you Sister Daisy, are just as troublesome?" Pardo thought to herself as she looked at Disaster with a smile.

Although I am indeed younger Sister Daisy the Present, I was reborn from my previous life, so it's not certain who is older.

Therefore, she was very clear that her feelings for Brother Yu Feng were not just childish fantasies, but genuine affection.

She may not be as beautiful and intelligent as Sister Elysia, nor as talented as Mobius or Vill-V, nor as powerful as Sakura, nor as flawless as Lilith, but when it comes to love, she will not easily lose to any of them.
