Text Game: It All Began when a Cat-eared Girl Took Me In-Chapter 207 - 173 Liya: How am I Supposed to Stay Rational! (4k)_1
"Mom, what’s wrong with you?"
Wei’er looked at her mother with confusion. Her demeanor had become very strange after receiving that hat.
"It’s nothing."
Liya took a deep breath, calming her emotions as she continued to flip through the memories stored in the runes.
In the memories, there were many scenes of the young man touching Aina’s mutated features.
How fond was that guy of mutation characteristics?
Soon, Liya realized that the young man had only known her daughters for a short while.
In just a few days, how did that guy manage to take liberties with her daughters?
Wei’er was one matter; although she might seem cold on the outside, Liya knew her daughter had a kind heart and would think of making amends if she realized she had hurt someone.
But Aina, she’s always so wary of strangers. Why didn’t she feel any resentment toward him?
If Aina’s behavior hadn’t seemed completely normal, Liya might have thought she had been brainwashed.
Even if Aina didn’t resist, that was no excuse for that man to take liberties with her!
Aina is still so young... Liya had thought that the young man possessed a sincere and noble soul. She must have been blind.
Then, Liya came across the memory in Lena’s Inn where Luo Xi petted Aina until she was out of her senses.
From just the image of Aina’s little face flushed with color, Liya thought that pervert might have done something unspeakable to her.
"..."
Rationality.
Stay rational.
Don’t let emotions cloud her judgment.
The young man was already dead.
Even though he had said he wouldn’t really die.
And the projection of her in the rune memories seemed to have believed it too.
But Liya didn’t believe in coming back to life.
Unless that guy could appear in front of her right now!
As Liya continued to sift through the rune memories, her expression gradually softened.
Although the young man had done some strange things to Wei’er and Aina, he truly hadn’t treated them badly, risking his life to be a decoy for Wei’er to enter the sanatorium and, in the end, using her projection to complete the Rune Power Armor to defeat Rat King Nos...
The memory paused on the image of Luo Xi manipulating Spark, beating Rat King Nos at the base of the Divine Tree, and being frozen by it.
So this was how he managed to get inside the Divine Tree? 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚
One could say that Wei’er’s survival was greatly owed to Luo Xi; he had indeed risked his life to save everyone in Winter City.
At this point, Liya’s anger toward Luo Xi had diminished a lot.
After all, her projection thought the young man a decent person, trusting him with her daughters in her last moments, and he did have many chances to take Aina and leave Winter City outright.
But this Rune Power Armor...
Liya’s face became wistful.
A project she had made no progress on for over a decade had been completed by a rune projection of hers.
Although it was a fortuitous achievement.
The birth of this rune armor was nearly impossible to replicate.
An armor with a distinct spirit will had already decided the uniqueness of this rune armor.
Even with something like Echo of Azure, a Lost Yuan Qi of that tier, its spirit didn’t have a very clear will, only able to respond basically to her commands.
Liya sighed softly, "Has it become his exclusive Yuan Qi then?"
If that guy was really dead, unless someone else could gain the recognition of that spirit within the Rune Power Armor, it would be completely inert.
Liya threw the hat back onto the black sphere.
There were things in the rune memories that she cared about more.
For instance, how did Aina manage to bring those Tier Four runes from her own workshop there?
Even though Aina’s mutation ability was special, and the fundamental logic of her runes would not harm Aina, with Aina’s strength, she couldn’t have done it without someone else’s help.
At that time, who else could have assisted Aina?
Liya looked toward the bedroom.
Speaking of which, Aina had been in the bedroom for quite some time now. Wasn’t everything in the bedroom gone?
...
Luo Xi was pondering his next move.
The Damn Text was reveling in schadenfreude, eager to see Luo Xi dead for good.
But Luo Xi wouldn’t just sit around waiting for his doom.
Since Liya was back, she might have gotten that Furnace Core hat and accessed the memories within.
Those memories included his many instances of getting fresh with Cat Cat, petting Aina into a daze, touching their feet in bed until they were covered in sweat, and even persuading Aina to marry him later—a series of egregious behaviors!
[Note: Garbage Traveler, so you realized that these are egregious behaviors? You’re truly sinful. But don’t you feel a bit regretful now? You haven’t tasted the ice cream of those Beast Eared Girls yet; you should have taken a couple of bites back then~]
Shut up, Damn Text, all you think about is eating ice cream! One day, if you become a girl wearing white stockings and come before me, I’ll eat it!
[Ding! Liya’s Anger Value +20]
[Ding! Liya’s Anger Value +50]
Luo Xi: "!"
The surge of these emotions... Liya was probably on the verge of exploding.
No, he had to pack up his belongings and scram, and fast.
