"What a coincidence!" Youyou quickly walked up to Shichen.

"Indeed." Shi Chen smiled slightly and took her hand.

"Ugh...!" Youyou looked around nervously.

"What are you afraid of?" Shi Chen asked, amused.

"No, I'm not scared... I'm just a little embarrassed..." Youyou replied softly.

"Really? How about this then?"

"What... um!" As soon as Youyou looked up, Shichen lowered his head and kissed her. Not only that, but they also had a deep kiss.

Youyou stared wide-eyed, seemingly stunned for a moment, unable to blink as she gazed at Shichen's handsome face so close to hers.

Shi Chen didn't get to know her for long before they parted ways.

"Why are you standing there dumbfounded?" He saw that Youyou was still in a daze, so he raised his hand and waved it in front of her.

"Well--!"

Youyou then realized what had happened, her fair face turning bright red. She looked around again, afraid that someone might have seen this embarrassing scene.

Not seeing anyone, Youyou nestled into Shichen's arms, playfully punching his chest with her little fists.

"So suddenly...! What if someone sees us?"

"Don't worry, I'm watching out." Shi Chen smiled and put his arm around her.

"That's still not enough... I wasn't prepared at all." Youyou stopped hitting him, nestled in Shichen's arms, her face pressed against his chest, her cheeks burning hot.

"Well, what can I do? You're so cute and charming first thing in the morning!" Shi Chen said shamelessly.

"Cute...mmm..."

"And I'm a little thirsty."

"What does your dry mouth have to do with what just happened... Ah!" Youyou instantly realized, pursing her lips, feeling even more embarrassed and flustered.

"You're quite smart, aren't you?"

"Hate!"

"Alright, alright, I'm just teasing you. Let's go downstairs quickly, or Huihui and the others might see us. Do you not want them to see you?"

"Um... I'm too shy."

"What's there to be ashamed of?"

"Meihui will tease me about it."

"So what? You can tease her back."

"I'm not her... Let's go downstairs quickly." Youyou left Shichen's embrace, took his hand, and walked towards the stairs.

"Sigh, when will I be able to be affectionate with you in front of Huihui?" Shichen asked teasingly as he followed behind her.

“No, no!”

"But Huihui is in my arms every day~"

"She is her, and I am me!"

"Alright alright."

Chapter 147 Magic Item Shop

After breakfast, Shichen and Huihui arrived at the guild. They first handed in the task of defeating the zombie maker from the previous night, and then accepted a task to defeat the giant frog.

This thing is impossible to eliminate; it keeps coming back every day.

While it might not be good for ordinary people, Shichen thinks it's quite good, as it's a fixed income for tomorrow.

The cabbage's earnings haven't been tallied yet, as the amount is quite large. It might take a few more days, so it's impossible to estimate what price range of housing it can buy for the time being.

I was so engrossed in the game that I didn't even notice how many cabbages I grabbed. That's the downside of adventurer cards—being too smart can make you lazy.

Today's task of hunting giant frogs was relatively easy; the number of them has decreased in the past two days.

Since Toki and Megumin didn't make a move, and Aqua didn't need to either, it was left to Yuu, Darkness, and Kazuma Sato to take action.

Darkness volunteered, while Yu-Yu and Kazuma Sato needed to level up quickly to increase their strength.

"Ah~ come and lick me! I won't move, just make me all sticky!"

Unlike Yoyo who used magic directly and Sato Kazuma who charged in with a short sword, Darkness stopped in front of a giant frog, spreading his arms wide, looking like he was ready to be slaughtered.

However, the giant frog didn't even glance at her and simply scurried away to the side.

"why is it like this......"

Darkness shrugged in disappointment for a moment, but quickly recovered and went to find another giant frog.

"Come lick me, I won't move, trust me!"

"Qua~"

The giant frog hopped away again, even faster than before.

"how so......"

"What exactly is Darkness doing?" Huihui asked with a forced smile as she watched this scene unfold.

"What do you think?" Shi Chen asked helplessly.

"Isn't she afraid of being swallowed by a giant frog like Aqua did before...? She doesn't seem to see it coming."

"Whether she sees it or not, it's all the same. Maybe she'll even like it more."

"That seems to be true... Masochistic tendencies are really scary. You probably wouldn't like this, Shichen, would you? Or do you have more than just a lolicon fetish?"

"I told you I'm not a lolicon!" Shi Chen said irritably, ruffling her head and messing up her short hair.

"Hmph! Nobody believes you!"

"Really? Since I'm a lolicon, shouldn't you be afraid?"

"Huh? Ah... Oh, right..."

"...What's with that surprised look on your face?"

"No way!" Huihui quickly turned her head to deny it.

Shichen smiled and shook his head: "You keep an eye on Aqua, I'll go check on Darkness."

"Oh..." Huihui still didn't turn around.

Shichen glanced at Aqua, who was squatting on the ground drawing circles, and then teleported to Knis's side.

"Shichen, what are you doing here? What's with these giant frogs? Why aren't they ignoring... Ouch!"

"I don't care!" Shi Chen tapped her on the head in an annoyed tone.

"Ouch~ One more time~ Hehehe~" Darkness excitedly looked down at Shichen.

"You're truly hopeless!" Shi Chen didn't grant her wish.

Aren't you going to hit me?

"Hit you on the head!"

"Of course you'd hit me on the head."

"...Let's not talk about that. What were you doing just now?" Shi Chen asked helplessly, changing the subject.

“I’m drawing fire,” Darkness replied matter-of-factly.

"Draw fire?" Shi Chen frowned, looking at her strangely.

“That’s right!” Darkness put his hands on his hips and explained proudly, “Once the giant frog has someone in its mouth, it won’t move. Luckily, my defense is high, so I don’t have to worry about getting hurt. Meanwhile, Youyou and the others can easily take care of the giant frog.”

"Heh~ That's quite a good reason." Shi Chen said with a forced smile.

"Of course... Ouch!"

"What did you just shout? Do you think I'd believe that?" Shi Chen smacked her on the head again.

"This, this is just... habitual banter... hehe~ one more time?"

"Still being naughty?" Shi Chen pinched her cheek.

"Ughhhhh—!" Darkness couldn't speak.

"Have you forgotten what I said before?" Shi Chen stared at her expressionlessly, released her hand, and asked in a cold voice.

"What?" Darkness blinked in confusion.

"Didn't I tell you before that you're not allowed to do this to anyone else but me? Are you ignoring what I said?"

"No."

"Ok?"

"The giant frog isn't a person; it's just a monster."

"..."

And you know what? You really can't argue with that timing.

"Am I really like this towards monsters?" Darkness asked.

"...Fine, as long as it's not a goblin or tentacles, whatever you want," Shichen replied listlessly.

What are tentacles?

"Don't worry about it, just continue." Shi Chen shook his head and teleported back.

"Hey? You still haven't told me why you're here."

"Qua~"

The only response she received was the croaking of a giant frog, which grew fainter and fainter.

"Wait! Don't run!"
