Volume 3, Chapter 43 – Being Kissed Is Still Way Too Embarrassing

Very soon, Xingyu Muxi, who was still handling Eden’s affairs, received the news that a Legendary Paladin from the Kingdom had come to negotiate.

“Did you find out clearly what this is about?”

Xingyu Muxi was a little puzzled.

Logically speaking, the Kingdom should not yet know of Eden’s existence, but according to the soldiers’ report, this Paladin who had suddenly arrived seemed to know about Eden’s existence.

At the same time, there also seemed to be some other unknown purpose.

“No, we only know that the one who came is a Legendary.”

“A Legendary…”

That was a bit of a headache.

However, for the moment, Xingyu Muxi could still tell that this Paladin did not seem to have any real hostility.

“They came to negotiate with the lord, right? Then go and inform the lord……”

Although Xingyu Muxi could go and negotiate directly, she felt that, as an outsider, meeting a Legendary in person was not quite appropriate.

Besides, she was not actually the lord. Tianyin was the lord. Even if Tianyin could not make the final decision, having Tianyin present was still more important.

“Uh… milady… it seems the lord is not in the City Lord’s Mansion…”

The soldier passing along the message looked very troubled.

“Hm? What, the lord is not here?”

Xingyu Muxi pressed a hand to her forehead, feeling a bit helpless.

“I know, she must have run off to the commercial district to eat sweets again, go and bring her back… wait, once you find where the lord is, just bring the Paladin directly to meet her there, I will head over right away…”

In the end, Xingyu Muxi still came up with a more middle of the road method.

Find where Tianyin was, then bring the Paladin directly to Tianyin, and Xingyu Muxi could just hurry over there as well.

After all, if they first had to find Tianyin, then have Tianyin walk all the way back, and she still had to spend time talking with the Paladin while they waited for Tianyin to return, that really would be rather troublesome.

“Understood.”

Watching the soldier leave, Xingyu Muxi subconsciously began to think about why a Paladin had suddenly appeared in Eden and wanted to negotiate with Eden.

“So… what could their goal be?”

For a while, Xingyu Muxi did not have any clues.

However, with Xingyu Muxi’s orders passed down, Eden also reacted to Fisiel’s arrival.

The knight girl Fisiel was welcomed into the city of Eden, and not only that, the party in charge of receiving the knight girl led Fisiel directly toward Eden’s commercial district… which was roughly where Xingyu Muxi had guessed Tianyin would be at the moment.

On the other side, several small squads searching for Tianyin had also already entered the commercial district.

Xingyu Muxi had also temporarily set aside the work at hand and headed toward the commercial district.

As long as nothing unexpected happened, then the place where this round of “negotiations” between Eden and the Kingdom’s Paladin would take place… ought to be Eden’s commercial district…

If nothing else was off.

It should be at a dining table, in the dessert shop…

At this moment, Tianyin had already arrived at the dessert shop early and had ordered the double layered cake she had just said she wanted to eat.

As for Xiaomengyao and Xiaobingxue, their real goal was only to accompany Tianyin, so they had just ordered a few things to eat as a formality.

“Yumm, as expected, cake really is delicious…”

Watching Tianyin speak with cake still at the corner of her mouth, Xiaomengyao suddenly had the urge to wipe Tianyin’s mouth.

‘No way, that is my master, I cannot do something like that, hey.’

Although she had that urge for a moment, after these past few days of Xingyu Muxi’s “thought education,” Xiaomengyao still managed to restrain that impulse.

Just then.

Sitting on Tianyin’s other side, Xiaobingxue quietly leaned her small face over.

“Eh, Xiaobingxue, what are you doing?”

It had been mentioned before that as long as there were sweets in front of her, Tianyin’s brain would clearly drop.

So even when Xiaobingxue’s face came close to Tianyin’s at a very short distance, Tianyin was still only looking at the very close Xiaobingxue with a curious and very bewildered expression.

Then, in the next second…

“Ahhhhh, what are you two doing!”

The first voice to ring out was Xiaomengyao’s near collapsing shout.

“Master, master, you two… you two… you two… Uu…”

At this moment, Xiaomengyao’s little face had turned completely red.

If this were a manga or an anime, you would probably be able to see a strange puff of steam rising off Xiaomengyao’s body.

Right now, in front of Xiaomengyao.

Tianyin’s brain had also gone into a crash state.

Blankly, she stared at the delicate little face of Xiaobingxue, who was only a breath away.

At this time, Tianyin… even the delicious sweet that was still in her mouth and had not been fully swallowed yet was subconsciously ignored by her brain.

“……”

Silence.

After Xiaomengyao let out that bewildered, panicked, flustered cry.

The air around the dining table actually fell into a strange silence all at once.

Tianyin was even more blank, her confused eyes staring without blinking at Xiaobingxue’s cute little face right before her, already filling her entire field of vision.

“Wuu…”

At this time, Tianyin, who had finally regained her senses a bit, felt a cool but slightly soft touch at the corner of her mouth, and in the next moment, it seemed as if something soft brushed lightly across her lips…

While Tianyin was still staring blankly at the undead loli before her, the undead loli in front of her withdrew from Tianyin’s field of view with a blank expression, then sat back down in her seat.

“Suu, Xiaoyin had cake on the lips, can’t waste it.”

If she had not said this line, Tianyin might really have thought that what just happened was only a dream…

But, but but… but…

“Eh… Xiaobingxue, y-you you you you…”

Finally, after Xiaobingxue sat back down with that blank expression, Tianyin at last understood what had just happened to her…

Rеаԁ оո ΚαtRеadіnɡСаfе

Just now…

It seemed like she had been kissed?

And also, that did not even seem to be the main point, hey.

While kissing her, Xiaobingxue seemed to have even used her little tongue on her?

“Eh eh eh eh eh eh eh eh??”

This kind of thing was just way too surreal, right?

Although Tianyin had indeed kissed Xiaobingxue before, that time she had been trying to wake Xiaobingxue up, not to take advantage of her or anything like that.

So that kiss had only been their lips touching, and nothing else had happened.

This time was different though…

This time, it seemed like she had been kissed by Xiaobingxue of her own initiative? And she had even used her tongue?

No matter what the reason was, this kind of thing was still far too outside of her expectations…

Just like Xiaomengyao, whose face was completely red, Tianyin’s small face also flushed red in an instant once she understood what had just happened.

After all.. getting kissed on the lips by a loli or something…

Was still way too embarrassing…
