Collapse, I save everything alone

This incident had happened in the original timeline. Under the guise of an examiner for the Valkyrie level qualification exam, Rita had come here in person and fought with Kiana, confirming her awakening status.

However, there is still some time before Otto can officially launch his plan. After all, that guy hasn't even gotten the Thousand Worlds One Vehicle yet.

Never mind, I'll think about this later...

Mingyu asked what he wanted to know at the moment:

"So, did Rita say anything to Xi'er?"

The silver-haired girl nodded slightly, then replied:

"...Well, she taught Seele the fighting techniques of using a sickle, and also taught Seele a lot of maid knowledge."

"Sure enough, she did it..."

"Isn't this good? Xier...she has always liked you."

Since it was something that would benefit Seele, Bronya didn't interfere in the matter.

"I know that, but Xier is still young after all..."

Even if you dream of a harem, you have to wait until the fruit is ripe.

At this stage, he still treats Xier as his sister, just like a little fox.

“…Everyone except the stupid Kiana has noticed your recent relationship with Mei-nee, and Seele probably wants to make some changes because of this.

"That girl has always been weak in the past. Now that she has the courage to show her kindness to you, it is enough to show how important you are in her heart. Well... after all, no matter what, you are the hero who saved her from the Quantum Sea."

Bronya put down the game controller for a rare moment and said this sentence seriously.

"...I understand. I will accept her kindness, but I still have to find a way to correct the wrong ideas that Rita has instilled in me."

Mingyu touched his head helplessly.

Bronya smiled slightly and whispered:

"...To be honest, Bronya is a little jealous."

"Really? Who are you jealous of?"

He asked jokingly.

Surprisingly, the silver-haired girl didn't answer the question, but simply waved her hand and sent him out of the house.

After closing the door, the girl leaned against it gently, thinking about the answer to this question.

Xi'er was her younger sister who she had lived with for many years, and Mingyu...

To Xier, he is the hero who saved her. Similarly, to himself... isn't he the same?

Saving Xi'er and helping her escape from Cocolia's conspiracy and deception... these things are of great significance to her life.

However, her brain, which could not feel much emotion now, could not fully understand her feelings for him.

Perhaps...only when her damaged brain is repaired one day in the future, she will be able to truly understand her own emotions.

……

Dinner time.

Kiana, who had been away from the dormitory for a whole day, finally returned to the dormitory.

Mingyu asked around and found out that she was going for combat training with Rita today.

Because Mei and Hiyomaru have not returned yet, the originally scheduled night run was temporarily cancelled today. Mingyu took this opportunity to go to the Stigmata Space to find Xilin again, practiced space techniques for a while, and exhausted all his energy.

Afterwards, Mingyu, exhausted, simply took a shower and went to bed.

late at night.

In a daze, Mingyu could feel that something seemed to be crawling into his bed.

...Is Higyomaru back?

He looked towards the bed in a daze, and yes, he could indeed see a petite figure approaching.

Are you back so soon?...

Mingyu, who had already gotten used to the days of him and Hiyomaru treating each other as human pillows, subconsciously hugged him.

The cozy, reassuring feeling of security from the human-shaped pillow in his arms made him feel a sense of leisure and comfort.

Hmm, such a familiar feeling...

His fingers couldn't help but scratch it. He felt that the pillow was not only soft, but also had a gentle temperature, and it was also vague and had a faint fragrance.

However, this doesn't seem to be the cherry blossom scent that belongs to Hiyumaru.

Mingyu didn't think too much, but subconsciously tightened his hands a little more. The only thought in his mind was comfort, and then he just wanted to continue sleeping soundly.

He groped around behind the girl, searching for the fox tail that felt so good and warm.

But apart from the jade-smooth back, he didn't seem to find what he wanted.

Why is there no tail...?

Well, maybe it’s because I just came back from a mission outside, so I didn’t transform into a tail.

Mingyu didn't think there was anything wrong, so he simply stopped groping and continued to hold the girl in front of him and fell asleep.

However, although he didn't feel anything was wrong, the girl in his arms was obviously unable to hold on any longer.

The girl said intermittently:

"Ming, Mingyu brother..."

"...?!"

Hearing this delicate voice, Mingyu realized something and suddenly opened his eyes.

He lifted the quilt slightly, and sure enough, a head of blue and black mixed hair appeared in his sight.

"…Xi'er?"

I saw a girl named Xier curled up in his bed, her pretty little face as red as an apple.

Seeing Mingyu wake up, she shyly raised her arms to cover her cheeks, her voice as soft as a mosquito:

"Brother Mingyu...you...you're awake..."

"Xi'er, why are you..."

"Um, um, sleeping with me..."

"..."

Mingyu felt a little headache.

No, no, no, this is definitely not part of a maid's job.

Although it does feel good to have a beautiful girl throw herself into your arms, has a certain maid instilled too much weird knowledge into the pure Seele?

In order to prevent Xier from being led astray by Rita, he needs to do something.

"Xie'er."

"Um……"

"Did Rita teach you these things?"

"Well, Xier told Sister Rita about her idea, and then Sister Rita taught Xier how to become a qualified maid."

So, there is Xier today.

"Uh, Xier, the knowledge that Rita taught you..."

"Brother Mingyu doesn't like it?"

"It's not that I don't like it, but, Xi'er, you don't have to do this."

"..."

The girl was silent for a while, which was rare, before she said in a low voice:

"Actually, Xier, what you did...is not a good thing."

After all, sister Mei is already dating brother Mingyu.

Although Xier had not experienced much normal communication and had spent most of her short life of more than a decade displaced and falling into the quantum sea, she still knew these things.

Doing this is like being a third party coming between them.

"It's not good from a common sense point of view, but..."

After a pause, Mingyu continued:

"Well...even though it's a bit shameful to say it, I don't want to give up on any of you."

"Eh?"

"You are all important to me. I hope you can all stay by my side in the future... This idea is shameless, isn't it?"

Mingyu said frankly.

Although I have already told Mei once, I have to repeat it again when facing Noelle.

"So this is what Brother Mingyu thinks..."

"This is a very greedy idea, isn't it? You are all excellent girls, but I hope to possess you all by myself."

"No...it doesn't matter. If it's Brother Mingyu..."

The weak girl said in a low voice.

Ming Yu reached out his hand, straightened her messy hair, looked into her eyes as blue as the sea and said:

"I know you like me very much, Xier, but you don't have to force yourself to do anything. Just be like usual. I like that kind of hope."

Of course, the maid Seele didn't dislike it either -

"Hmm...Xier understands..."

The girl nodded obediently, and then asked timidly:

"Then... can Xier sleep here tonight?"

"Well, go to sleep."

Mingyu gently touched the girl's head and soothed her.

Xier fell asleep peacefully, her eyes slightly closed, her hands gently resting on her chest, her soft eyelashes clearly visible, her sleeping face beautiful and gentle.

The girl breathed quietly, and the comfort of sleep made her already clean face stained with pure tranquility, as if she had merged into a white cloud. In this fairy-tale scene, she was like a butterfly landing on her shoulder, light and fragile, in need of others' care.

Although Mingyu also wanted to fall asleep with Xier in his arms, it was obvious that he had dealt with the well-behaved Xier, but he still hadn't dealt with the other one.

Sure enough, not long after, the girl who was originally in a deep sleep opened her eyes.

The sea-blue gemstones were gone, replaced by a pair of scarlet eyes.

The girl, who had changed from a weak girl to a strong girl, stretched out her delicate hands, grabbed his clothes on his chest, and asked:

"Hmph, you scumbag!"

Facing the aggressive Hei Xi, Ming Yu blinked innocently and replied:

"Yes, yes, I am a scumbag, but Xier likes scumbags like me."

"You and I……"

Hearing his answer, Hei Xina was furious.

If the man in front of her was not the man Xier liked, she would have wanted to call for the chains to tie him up tightly, and then use the chain claws to cut him into pieces.

But what he said was the truth. Xier liked him, and he couldn't possibly touch him.

Besides, he was indeed the benefactor who saved Xier...

After being depressed for a long time, the girl said viciously:

"Then I'll go complain to my elder sister!"

——Although their personalities are completely opposite, Hei Xi is basically as innocent as Xi'er, and is able to make such a "threat".

"Are you really willing to go? Don't you want your existence to be made public?"

"I--"
