A Core Ship From The Start-Chapter 1566 - 1054: Sisters (Asking for Monthly Tickets for the New Month)
Chapter 1566: Chapter 1054: Sisters (Asking for Monthly Tickets for the New Month)
"Phew......"
After a satisfying meal, Duanmu Huai also stood up, and patted his bulging belly. Never mind how the food of demons tastes, it’s mainly about the quantity. Eating so much was really delightful.
It’s just that he ate roughly the same amount as Frieren did, making Duanmu Huai feel somewhat defeated.
It’s not that he ate too little, but Frieren ate too much---Speaking of which, when we adventured in her world, I hadn’t seen her eat this much?
Could it be that elves in that world are like animals, eating a big feast in winter and saving it until spring?
"I’m going out for a walk to digest."
Duanmu Huai said a brief word to Mary, then stepped out of the banquet hall and onto the square outside.
It was deep into the night by now, but for demons, this is when nightlife just begins. Duanmu Huai stretched his body and started walking around the lake outside the hotel.
"Hmm?"
However, just as Duanmu Huai walked with his hands behind his back like a retired old man, he saw a familiar petite figure walk out from the hotel. It was a girl with short white hair, about the age of a middle schooler, dressed in formal wear—Duanmu Huai remembered correctly that she was Liliath’s follower, [Castle] Tower City Kitten.
Speaking of them, Tower City Kitten and Banriya are truly two extremes, one’s usually silent with no expression, while the other couldn’t stay in peace for three days without causing a ruckus. Yet in some ways, they are strangely similar, such as choosing close combat styles that don’t match their delicate appearances as white-haired lolis.
Banriya is often seen wielding fists and smashing people, Duanmu Huai is tired of seeing it, and Tower City Kitten also often carries heavy objects taller than herself to smash around... Could all lolis in the Devil World have this violent tendency?
Just as Duanmu Huai was lost in thought, he saw Tower City Kitten scanning the surroundings seriously before slipping into the woods next to the hotel.
What’s she doing in the woods? Doesn’t the hotel have a toilet?
Seeing this, Duanmu Huai’s curiosity was piqued, his silhouette flickered, and followed her—having a look doesn’t break any laws, right?
Using Shadow Crow Guard’s stealth technique, Duanmu Huai perfectly avoided Tower City Kitten’s attention. She seemed unaware of being tracked, gazing ahead, seemingly looking around for something. Then, Duanmu Huai saw Tower City Kitten halt, tense, turning her gaze towards a spot not far away.
Meanwhile, the clouds covering the sky dispersed, following that, moonlight spilled down, illuminating the shadows. A long-haired cat-eared beauty in a kimono was standing there, smilingly staring at Tower City Kitten.
"You.....!"
Seeing this cat-eared beauty, Tower City Kitten seemed shocked, while the latter appeared at ease; in fact, she clenched her right hand into a cat paw, raised it, and greeted Tower City Kitten.
"HELLO, White Sound, it’s your sister. I didn’t expect you could follow just by sneaking a black cat into the venue. Sister is truly touched, meow..."
As the cat-eared beauty spoke, a black cat walked out from the side, lovingly rubbing against the cat-eared beauty.
"Sister, why are you here———!"
However, contrary to the seemingly calm demeanor of the cat-eared beauty, Tower City Kitten displayed a drastically different behavior from her usual silent, expressionless self, angrily staring at her. But the woman addressed as sister just softly smiled.
"Don’t make such scary expressions, I just have some business here. I heard demons are holding grand events, so I came to check it out, meow~~~~"
At this point, the woman again looked toward Tower City Kitten.
"But now I’ve changed my mind, I want to rectify my previous mistakes and take you back, White Sound."
"———————!"
Upon hearing the woman speak, Tower City Kitten suddenly jumped back, her whole body akin to threatened kitten, arching up, staring fiercely at the woman.
"I won’t go back with you, I’m now Gimonri’s follower! I...... uh........"
Yet, before she finished her sentence, Tower City Kitten’s body went limp, falling backward — following that, a large hand reached out from the dark, supporting her.
"Huh?"
Seeing Duanmu Huai suddenly appear beside her, Tower City Kitten widened her eyes in surprise.
"Teacher? Why......"
"I just saw you head into the woods without knowing what you were up to, so I came to have a look, didn’t expect to encounter a kidnapping scene."
Duanmu Huai looked at Tower City Kitten and chuckled, then he glanced towards the woman opposite.
"Kidnapping lolis is against the law, you know."
"I’m not kidnapping."
However, facing Duanmu Huai, the cat-eared woman was only slightly surprised, quickly calming down, and once again displaying that confident smile.
"After all, this child is my sister, I have the right to care for her, don’t I?"
"Hmm?"
Hearing this, Duanmu Huai paused, looking at Tower City Kitten, who was biting her lip, saying nothing.
"Sisters, huh... Well, frankly, this matter doesn’t technically involve me, but she’s my student, and seeing how you two don’t resemble a touching sisterly reunion, you better leave now before I stop being polite."
