Miluno's Surprise Attack

(Sun Yao)

Miluno and Yezi were penniless, and they were able to shop around entirely thanks to Miss Jila. I felt bad that she hadn't considered this, so I naturally paid off their debt without hesitation.

"Miluno, Yezi, I'm so sorry..."

Miluno shook her head.

"Another empty apology."

"Hehe, but I still have to Jila Miss Gila."

At least she didn't embarrass Miluno.

"No need to thank me, I made money."

Miss Jila waved her hand and said to Miluno, "Well Miluno, see you again in Skyreach City?"

"Yes, I'll treat you to a welcome-back dinner."

Wow? I'm looking forward to it~ See you later!

The blonde, blue-eyed, enthusiastic older sister waved goodbye and even gave Sirius a high-five before leaving... Hmm? Why does it seem like they know each other?

If you don't understand, just ask.

"Is Miss Jila also going to Skyreach City?"

"She said there would be better opportunities in Skyreach City, but I don't know what she'll be doing there. I heard she has friends there."

Miluno answered calmly, and I glanced at Sirius, who seemed to be suppressing a laugh.

"So, Miss Sirius already knew Miss Jila?"

"Hahaha, you guys got tricked by her."

Now, she could no longer hide the smile on her face.

"Jila Kidman, she's the local guide I arranged for you; in other words, there's no need to pay her any commission from the start."

"Miss Jila was sent by Miss Sirius?!"

I couldn't help but be surprised, but Miluno seemed to have just realized something.

"No wonder she seemed to know who we were from the very beginning."

"Wow! Miss Jila is so mean!"

Isn't that deceiving us from the very beginning?

"Not only that, she's also one of Hawaii's magical girls, but she herself isn't content to stay in this small place."

"Is Miss Jila a magical girl?"

"Falcon, the magical girl, has the magic of flight, which literally means she's an aerial combat witch. However, she's not very well-known. There are too few External Invader appearing in Hawaii, and she's not the only magical girl. The competition is fierce, and there's no money to be made, making it a highly competitive environment."

She did complain about the lack of Monster in Hawaii, saying that even magical girls had to find side jobs to make ends meet; it turns out she was referring to herself...

"However, she's determined to go to Skyreach City this time, so I won't try to stop her. I'll leave her in your care afterward."

"Um!"

After crossing the pier back onto the yacht, Ms. Yin Wei climbed back into the wheelhouse.

Miluno took my hand and led me back to the large room with the double bed. I didn't know what she wanted to say, but she locked the door as soon as she entered, which made me a little nervous.

"Miss Miluno?"

"Ceruno, open the bubble."

She took my hand, and with my other hand I took out my wand, releasing Bubble Membrane that enveloped us both. It then expanded into a geometric bubble that covered half the room, blocking the transmission of sound.

Then, Miluno accelerated the bubbles, and the wall clock came to a standstill.

"... What do you want me to do?"

"Ceruno, do you like Bai Ziye?"

Huh? Why are you asking that?

"Of course I like it! We're best friends."

"Is that so? That's why you said those things to SpiCa..."

Miluno seems to have misunderstood something.

"Those... those words?"

She replied, "'I won't give Yezi to you. We have a deep bond, and we're childhood sweethearts. He'd definitely be more accepting of me.' I remember it being like that."

That sentence made my eyes widen.

"You guys are at that restaurant too?"

"Yes." Miluno answer made me even more embarrassed.

"And those Yezi too..."

"Of course I heard that too. We're right here in that Western restaurant, and our seats are only a half-wall away from yours... By the way, that restaurant is owned by Jila's family."

Just thinking about what I said makes my face involuntarily flush.

"Ugh, this is so embarrassing..."

But before I could process these feelings, Miss Miluno suddenly leaned closer and pressed her body against my arm.

"Ceruno."

I could even feel the breath on her lips.

"...(gulp)" I just swallowed hard.

"I like it too..."

Sure enough, Miluno also liked Yezi.

"... I like you."

"Ah? Miluno... you... you like me?"

She nodded earnestly in response.

"It's true, so you can't like Bai Ziye. This is my confession."

A confession? Does this even count as a confession?

Her lines sounded like she was jealous, which was a bit different from her usual cuteness.

No, now is not the time to let your mind wander!

Since it's a confession, I have to respond...

Why?

But in the end, he could only manage to squeeze out a question.

Do you need a reason to like someone?

"Well... I need to think about it!"

Just kidding, there's no need to even consider that!

How could someone like me deserve Miluno's affection? She doesn't even know I was originally a man; it's all a deception...

You must refuse properly!

Even though I understand it in my heart, I can't do it.

I'm so afraid of losing Miluno, I want to stay by her side.

"Can't you accept me?"

"Miluno, I am..."

She covered my mouth and laughed, "No matter what you were like before, I can accept it. I'm not someone who judges people by their appearance."

But I can't accept it myself.

The original Sun Yao was nothing more than worthless cow dung.

"I'm sorry, Miss Miluno, I cannot give you an answer right now..."

"Why? Can't you let go of Bai Ziye? Our magic is so compatible, isn't that a divine arrangement?"

I can't believe I actually thought Miluno liked Yezi?

Looking back now, Miluno had been very kind to me from the very beginning, while her relationship with Yezi was somewhat strained...

I actually thought she liked Yezi.

"Woof!"

The Golden emerged from under the bed.

Then, wagging its tail, it jumped onto the bed and squeezed between me and Miluno.

I almost forgot about it.

"Well..."

Miluno rubbed the dog's head a few times, then sighed.

"I understand. I won't force you to give me an answer right now, but I won't give up. I will prove that I am more suitable for you than Bai Ziye, Ceruno."

Her solemn declaration made me feel even worse.

Honestly, do I really want to reject Miluno?

Of course not.

She's my idol. Which fan wouldn't want to be with their idol?

But I can't do it. I can't face her as my true self...

In comparison, Yezi is more suitable as my safe haven. Only in front of him do I not need to pretend at all.

Wait, why am I thinking about this again?

I shook my head. Miss Miluno had already deactivated the bubble's acceleration, and the wall clock had resumed its normal ticking.

"Sorry."

I still couldn't help but apologize.

Perhaps I hurt Miluno's feelings.

"I will gradually change our relationship."

She reached out and lifted my chin, forcing me to look her in the eye.

"I will make you give up Bai Ziye, I promise."
