Miss Riddler just wants to level up in peace.

The Valkyrie's voice could be faintly heard outside; they were still searching.

With the maze of stargazing in place, destiny cannot find this place.

The clothes gradually dried out under the heat of the flames.

"They can't get in, don't worry."

"I'm not worried about that. Um... is everything alright with Destiny?"

Forcibly taking her away would undoubtedly be going against fate, and the price is not something an ordinary person can bear.

He was even nearly seriously injured during his fight with Rita.

Kiana felt a pang of anxiety upon seeing the wound on the girl's shoulder.

He was willing to patiently understand her, and even skip class to play games with her. They were such good friends...

That's why Kiana didn't want to suffer disaster because of her.

“Destiny will make innocent girls do experiments, which is inhumane, as you saw in New Zealand.”

Since the Tower of Babel in the early 2000s, Destiny has been secretly conducting human experiments.

Is it ironic? The Herrschers were created because their purpose was to fight against the Honkai.

The outcome was just, but the process went against universal values.

Ziyao couldn't think of a better way to combat the collapse, and felt she had no right to judge its merits or demerits.

"Um....."

Ziyao brushed off the question.

Kiana stammered an "Mmm," and continued to stare blankly at the swaying flames.

The dry firewood crackled and popped as it burned, sending up a few small sparks.

"Go to sleep first, don't think too much."

"not sleepy."

"Then come on."

I used up too much mental energy today.

As soon as I relaxed, drowsiness began to creep in.

If I don't get some sleep soon, I'm afraid I'll faint.

After yawning, Ziyao quickly fell asleep.

"..."

After a long time, Kiana also felt sleepy.

She looked out of the water curtain with some concern. Not long ago, she could hear faint sounds, as if a group of Valkyries were there.

Touching the girl's warm hand, his worries immediately lessened.

Even while still in crisis, the girl could still show a peaceful sleeping face.

Kiana's cherry lips, perfectly proportioned, constantly drew her gaze.

She knew what that feeling deep inside her was.

Out of consideration for her friend, she chose to suppress her feelings.

But whenever she saw the two of them being affectionate, her heart ached.

Although it was shameful, a sense of relief flashed through her heart when she heard that their relationship was not yet confirmed and that Ziyao had rejected Mei.

Normally I can hold back, but opening the game makes me forget all my troubles.

Why is my heart pounding so hard right now?

The two of them were alone, with no one else around.

When Kiana came to her senses, she realized that the girl's face was very close to hers.

Without anyone noticing, she brushed her long hair behind her ear.

Just a few more inches down, and you'll be able to taste the cotton-soft cherry lips.

Thump thump —

My heart was pounding, and my ears were burning.

Kiana tried her best to hold back and stepped back slightly.

Feeling a little uncomfortable in her sleep, Ziyao adjusted her position and pressed her soft, warm body against her.

A taut string snapped.

Constant suppression will only lead to a stronger backlash.

Just trying a little bit is fine, right?

The air was filled with a sweet smell, making one feel slightly dizzy.

Kiana, dressed in a shrine maiden's outfit, knelt beside Ziyao, her cheeks flushed, and slowly bowed...

Mei, I'm sorry—

Kiana is in love with you, affection level: 96

Volume 1: Chapter 105 A Rainy Night, Unspeakable Feelings

Very fragrant and sweet.

Like a lily immersed in water, it is sweet but not cloying, with a lingering floral fragrance.

It's as soft as a marshmallow and as elastic as jelly.

Like a lotus root that is broken but still connected by threads, a superficial taste is insufficient to quench a raging fire.

The girl's face was incredibly beautiful in the flickering firelight, with a touch of romantic fragility, like a precious piece of porcelain that might break at any moment.

Especially her soft, cherry-like lips, which seemed to whisper in her ear like a devil, urging her to kiss them again.

"..."

When she came to her senses, two buttons on the girl's snow-white blouse had already been undone.

Through the gap, one could vaguely see skin as smooth and white as milk.

This cannot continue.

Reason says so.

On several occasions, I felt as if I was no longer myself.

Is this also due to the influence of the Herrschers...?

Kiana instinctively stepped back, worried about hurting Ziyao.

I accidentally knocked over a glass of water, which made a slight shattering sound.

Guan Xing opened his eyes, holding a feather fan and wary of his surroundings.

She breathed a sigh of relief after realizing it was just a minor accident.

In its current state, it's unrealistic to confront Schicksal's Valkyrie forces; the best we can do is lay low for now.

Come to think of it, my lips feel a little wet...

Because of the shared senses, the stargazer noticed something was amiss.

I felt the same way during class the day before yesterday. Could it be that Kiana played another prank on me by putting lipstick on her again?

"No, you're just drooling in your sleep!"

Thinking she had been exposed, Kiana immediately became very nervous.

She was relieved to hear that Guan Xing had misunderstood, but her tone still carried a hint of disappointment at the end.

What would happen if they were discovered?

do you accept?

Or do you dislike it?

They're just friends, yet they secretly kiss, and it's always with girls...

Kiana, who is usually carefree, rarely thinks about such trivial matters, but at this moment she is overwhelmed with thoughts.

"The sky is mostly cloudy tonight, with no stars in sight. I fear there will be thunderstorms tomorrow."

Guan Xing yawned. "It's best to go to bed early."

“I can’t sleep…”

"What's on your mind?"

Guan Xing naturally knew that Kiana was troubled by the Herrscher of the Void.

However, overthinking is useless and mostly just creates negative emotions and adds to your troubles.

Go to bed early; your bad mood will dissipate a lot.

"Ah."

"Let me guess, could it be that he likes me?"

Psychological counseling is very important.

It's nice to add a little spice to the meal before we begin.

As soon as she finished speaking, Kia suddenly looked away, not daring to look at the stars.

The girl's ears were slightly red, still feeling the lingering heat.

"H-How is that possible? My orientation is perfectly normal...!"

The voice was so faint it was barely audible; it was unclear whether it was from guilt or from being frightened.

Kiana hurriedly tried to find an excuse, and even secretly glanced at the stargazer's face to confirm whether he had really noticed.

"Um, Ziyao, what kind of girl do you like...?"
