She was obediently pushed out of the door.
And then!
"Bang!"
The door closed.
Elysia turned her head, and the hanging doorplate vibrated twice, swaying back and forth. She fell silent for a moment, her smile receding slightly. As if remembering something, she raised her small hand.
Gently, she brought it to her lips.
Then, she let out a muffled chuckle to herself, all alone but laughing heartily.
There was no reason for it.
She was simply happy.
But if she had to say why...
"Do you trust me...?" Just that sentence alone was enough to make Elysia roll around in bed, clutching her blankets.
She liked it.
But what she liked even more was Kiana's attitude towards her – her openness. Sincere, adorable, without any lies, without beating around the bush, she said what she meant.
Even in the situation just now.
Kiana had instinctively, naturally, spoken her thoughts.
This was something that truly delighted Elysia.
After all!
Even within Flame-Chasing Moth, or among the people she knew, very few could truly be like that.
Not because of her wishes, but facing her with as much truth as possible.
It was simply because they wanted to, so they did it, they were willing to interact with her in that way.
Every single one of them.
In Elysia's eyes...
Was so incredibly precious!
They were like her treasures.
Making her unable to put them down!
Before she came, she had also imagined countless times what her meeting with the Herrscher of the End would be like.
The current Herrscher of the End must be completely different from the character art projected by the Sky Curtain, right?
Now she realized. Surprises always came unexpectedly.
After just that brief interaction.
Elysia understood.
Kiana had not only met her expectations.
She had even far surpassed them.
"Do you like it...?" Yes, she liked Kiana.
Because for Elysia, liking was liking, and not liking was not liking.
She might overthink, she might care, she might be like any ordinary teenage girl experiencing her first crush.
But she would never lie to herself.
Sometimes, if she liked someone at first glance, she would like them forever. Sometimes, if she didn't like someone, it was very difficult to like them, ever.
"Like" was the word Elysia used most often.
But she understood that other kinds of "like" paled in comparison to how she felt about Kiana at this moment.
She was the best at judging people.
But precisely because of that, she could better understand how every aspect, whether strengths or weaknesses, was so lovable, and could make her smile uncontrollably. This was something only Kiana could do.
Was it fast?
It was indeed very fast~
But she didn't mind.
"It's a destiny bestowed by heaven, what can I do?" Elysia muttered to herself, then couldn't help but smile again.
And at this moment.
The door behind her opened.
Kiana walked out.
She had chosen a style of a t-shirt paired with jeans, exuding undeniable youth and vitality.
After all, she was still a sixteen or seventeen-year-old high school girl.
Isn't it only natural that it would turn out this way?
But Elysia's eyes lit up.
She admired Kiana without any pretense, growing fonder the more she looked.
Her plain T-shirt accentuated her delicate curves, and her light blue jeans, while not as tight as some styles, still outlined her long, beautiful legs. Her hips looked great, and her legs were fantastic. She stood there like a natural-born clothes hanger.
She really never got tired of looking at her.
"Stop staring, let's go," Kiana, of course, could feel Elysia's gaze.
She felt a little unaccustomed to it.
But feigning a proud, tsundere attitude, she called out to Elysia and started heading downstairs.
However, in Elysia's eyes, Kiana like this was like a little kitten baring its claws and fangs, making her want to tease her.
But~
She also knew that too much of a good thing could be bad.
After all, there was still plenty of time in the future. Since the future was long, she couldn't go too far.
Don't you agree?
Gulping it down whole wasn't good.
Savoring it slowly was the real delicacy!
Elysia knew the difference between being full once and being full all the time.
She understood very well that the more beautiful something was, the more it should be savored little by little. She not only hoped to "consume" Kiana, but she also hoped Kiana would come to like her.
Feelings could be passionate or calm.
But no matter what, whether it was turbulent waves or calm waters, they were all a small part of the charm of being together. Ultimately, accepting each other slowly was the best way.
You could say Elysia was mischievous.
But you absolutely couldn't say she was frivolous.
On the contrary, she was very serious about every feeling she had.
It was precisely because of her sincerity that she possessed the greatest killer move.
In Kiana's opinion, it was Elysia who was actually so troublesome, leaving her feeling a bit helpless.
"What are you still spacing out for?" She glanced at Elysia from the stairs, seeing her smiling dreamily. She probably guessed what was happening and felt even more helpless, calling out to her again.
"Coming, coming~" Elysia followed with light steps, right behind Kiana, hopping down the stairs as if playing hopscotch.
PS1: Here's the first update, one more to go, keep up the good work~~
029. You're even more pathetic when you're controlled by the Glass Cannon, Kiana.
"It seems you two are getting along very well." Kiana's mother watched the two girls descend the stairs, one after the other. Just by looking at the atmosphere, she knew they were getting along, and she couldn't help but smile with relief.
"Yes, Mom~"
Elysia said happily, "Kiana looked so cute when she was sleeping. But what I like best about Elysia is how she looks right after waking up, all hazy, like a pure little deer."
"Also, her slightly tsundere look, and when she gets a little angry... it's all so interesting, so cute~"
"Mhm! I really like it! Thank you, Mom..."
She chattered on.
Kiana's mother nodded with a smile and winked at her.
Elysia returned her smile, appearing shy but radiant as a flower.
Meanwhile.
Kiana, who was getting a drink from the refrigerator, suddenly overheard their conversation. She immediately turned her head sharply, looking at her mother in disbelief, and then at Elysia with similar disbelief.
First of all.
If her mother hadn't agreed, Elysia probably wouldn't have come to her room.
No matter what, even if her mother hadn't brought it up, Elysia definitely would have.
In fact, Kiana thought the latter was more likely.
Who knew!
It turned out her mom had brought it up herself.
"Mom! You sold me out!" she couldn't help but protest.
Secondly.
Elysia... you only just got here today!
And you're already calling her that?
"And another thing!"
"That's my mom, not your mom!"
"..."
Did she really hate it?
No, it was embarrassment!
Suddenly, she felt like she woke up and the sky had fallen.
The only one on her side was herself...
Oh.
She might not even be on her own side anymore.
How could Kiana not panic?
"What does it matter~" Kiana's mom pursed her lips and giggled.
Elysia nodded solemnly, saying with a straight face, "After all, you're my fiancée. Your mom is my mom. Since I'll have to call her that sooner or later, why is there a problem with me, Elysia, calling her now to get used to it?"
She spoke righteously.
"You're the one who's my wife..." Kiana complained weakly.
Of course, she didn't hate Elysia.
If she hated her, she wouldn't have set Elysia as her future wife.
Because Elysia's love was equal; she loved everyone, she loved all of humanity.
Without special settings, or deliberately manipulating things like this, the difficulty of trying to win over Elysia was practically insurmountable.
However!
How many times had this happened?
Anyway.
Kiana truly regretted it a little.
