Volume 3, Chapter 15 – Caught You

“Eh? Big sister, what’s wrong…? Why do you look really sad?”

While Yeluo was still being emotionally shaken by what had happened, Tianyin looked at her with some curiosity.

“U-Uh, no…… it’s nothing…”

Even though she was feeling agitated, Yeluo knew this wasn’t a moment where she should lose control.

So when she heard Tianyin’s question, she quickly adjusted her state and responded with as much of a smile as she could manage.

“Really nothing? Just now it clearly felt like big sister was about to cry?”

“No…… how could I possibly cry, I just remembered something…….. right Xiaoyin, could you maybe not call me big sister, just call me Yeluo~”

To be honest, toward this adorable little girl in front of her, who looked unbelievably cute, Yeluo had felt goodwill ever since their first meeting.

And the little girl even took good care of her. The fondness Yeluo originally had for Tianyin had already turned into the warmth of facing a good friend.

If possible, she really wanted to become good friends with this little girl named Tianyin……………

“Wuu? Eh, I see?……. then, I’ll call you Sister Yeluo.”

Tianyin answered with a cute smile.

As if Tianyin’s smile infected her, Yeluo’s face also slowly blossomed with a smile.

“Mm ah, if you call me like that, then we’re good friends now~”

“Mm mm, we’re friends.”

Even though they hadn’t known each other for long, Tianyin still really liked this feeling.

After all, no matter what, she had made another friend.

And after waiting for about half an hour, it was finally Yeluo’s turn to register.

Very quickly, in just a few seconds, the registration was finished.

“Eh, that fast?”

Even after completing it, Yeluo’s face was full of disbelief.

“Yeah, it’s just that fast. They’re only recording your name, so it finishes quickly.”

Tianyin explained.

Though there was another sentence Tianyin didn’t want to say.

That was that in the instant of registering, the registrant’s appearance and relevant information would be recorded at the same time. If she tried to explain it, it would get troublesome. To say it plainly, some settings in the game world were far more advanced than real-world technology.

“So that’s how it is?”

Yeluo suddenly understood.

“Mm mm, Sister Yeluo, how about I take you to see the house assigned to you?”

The reason Tianyin said this was because just earlier, when Yeluo finished registering, the staff had directly informed her that she had already been assigned a house. They also told her the location.

But this came with an unexpected situation: why did none of the registration staff recognize Tianyin standing right next to Yeluo…?

To be honest, in Eden now, aside from the core members and those who had followed Tianyin from the start, most people only recognized Xingyu Muxi as the acting leader, yet didn’t know about the existence of Tianyin as the actual lord.

According to what Samael once teasingly said about Tianyin, Tianyin’s current status seemed to be that of a mascot, not a dignified lord.

“Wuu, it’s fine, I’m not in a hurry. I know where it is.”

Remembering that she came here to gather information, Yeluo still shook her head in the end and declined Tianyin’s suggestion.

“Eh, I see. Then Sister Yeluo, do you want to walk around the Commercial Zone? A lot of shops have opened over there~”

“Commer…… Commercial Zone?”

She had to admit that hearing such a word threw Yeluo into confusion again.

Honestly, what even was a Commercial Zone?

Since she was little, this was the first time she’d ever heard of something called a Commercial Zone……..

“Right, the Commercial Zone. Oh right, I forgot to tell Sister Yeluo that Eden City has very detailed divisions for many areas. Right now we’re in Eden City’s Central Plaza.”

“And the place where we met earlier, that whole area belongs to the Residential Zone. The remaining areas of Eden are divided into Military, Administrative, and Commercial Zones~”

Tianyin didn’t plan to hide this surface-level information. Since Yeluo had already officially registered as a member of Eden, Tianyin completely trusted her.

“Uhh, so there are divisions like this?”

After hearing Tianyin’s explanation, Yeluo felt like she’d discovered a whole new world.

“Eden City is really like this? It’s so, so amazing, Xiaoyin……”

“Ehehe, amazing right?”

Hearing such praise, Tianyin couldn’t help but smile happily.

“It’s amazing, Xiaoyin…… and, and I also think…… the lord of this city, the city lord, must be someone really, really incredible.”

“Wuu……”

Being praised so suddenly, Tianyin’s little face blushed faintly.

But Yeluo didn’t notice Tianyin’s odd reaction. Instead, her own face showed deep admiration.

“And they even treat the half-beast race with such equality…… Xiaoyin, I think the lord must definitely be a gentle good person~”

“Pff…… wuu, y-yes, a good person……”

Tianyin suddenly felt a bit guilty.

After all, the operation of Eden, and the handling of all its affairs, were things she had never participated in.

Ever since Eden was established, she had handed all authority and matters over to Xingyu Muxi.

So the reason Eden City could function normally and continuously develop was entirely thanks to Xingyu Muxi…….

Because she understood this very well, when she heard Yeluo praise Eden’s lord right in front of her, Tianyin felt her little face heat up until it was bright red.

“Eh, Xiaoyin, what’s wrong? Your face is really red?”

“Wuu, I, I…… because………….”

She could have come up with a clumsy excuse.

But Tianyin suddenly felt that continuing to hide her identity from Yeluo didn’t feel right. They were already friends.

And hiding something that would inevitably be exposed sooner or later wasn’t good.

So Tianyin’s words became hesitant, because she didn’t know how to tell Yeluo that she was the lord.

“What’s wrong, Xiaoyin?”

“Wuu, actually I…… um, um that……”

And just then, a completely flat, emotionless voice suddenly rang beside Tianyin’s ear.

“Caught you……”

Right after that, under Yeluo’s wide-eyed expression, a cerulean silhouette pounced at Tianyin like a small animal.
