Chapter 465: Little Fairy's Decision

⇐ ⇒

In the [City of Chaos], Little Blue floated mid-air, visibly bored. With her left hand cradling her chin and her right scratching her back, she grumbled, "Huff... So dull. I wish I could stroll outside."

"Yet, I pledged to Master to stand guard here. Ugh, what an awful master," she sighed.

Suddenly, an elegant voice pierced the silence. "What was that you said?"

Startled, Little Blue plummeted from the sky. "Waaah!" A hand snagged her leg, sparing her a painful landing.

"Master! Oh, how I've missed you!" Recognizing the radiant face, Little Blue's demeanor immediately brightened.

Yaeger gave her a teasing squint. "So, do you miss your ‘horrible' master or your ‘magnanimous' master?"

After a split second of thought, Little Blue ventured, "The mag— Ow!" She was cut off by a swift spanking.

"That's for speaking ill of me," Yaeger declared, her voice accompanied by sharp smacks and Little Blue's yelps.

When the discipline ended, Little Blue gingerly rubbed her sore backside. "Oh, it stings!"

"Notice anything out of the ordinary while I was gone?" Yaeger inquired, adjusting her wind-tousled black hair.

"Absolutely not! I've been diligent. Really, nothing happened!" Little Blue was savvy enough to keep any mishaps a secret.

"Is that so?" Yaeger leaned in, their faces almost touching.

Suppressing a scream for fear of tentacle whips, Little Blue confirmed, "Yes... truly!"

"Good girl," Yaeger smiled, patting her head.

"Good morning, Princess," Yunuen chirped as she skipped closer.

"You're up early. Did you get enough sleep?" inquired Yaeger.

"More than enough! I hardly got this much sleep even during school days," Yunuen said, beaming.

Hearing this reminded Yaeger that Yunuen was still a high school junior. ‘If I didn't know that both worlds will collide, plunging Earth into turmoil, I'd tell her to focus on her education,' Yaeger thought. "Ever consider returning to school, Yunuen?" she asked.

"I've thought about it, but it's increasingly competitive with limited openings for average students like me. I think it's too late to improve my grades," Yunuen replied, a tinge of regret in her voice.

"That's understandable," Yaeger said, patting her on the head. "Maybe you'll reconsider in the future."

Yaeger kept her thought, ‘There won't be a future for that,' to herself.

Amidst the silence, another flash of white light occurred, and Little Fairy materialized. "There you are," said both, almost in unison.

"I knew you'd come," Yaeger added.

"I...of course, I'd be here," Little Fairy responded nervously, clutching her shirt.

Things had taken an odd turn, and she felt unsure how to proceed. "Made up your mind?" Yaeger approached and whispered.

"I...I..." Little Fairy hesitated, biting her lip.

"If you decline, you won't hear from me again," Yaeger assured, touching her shoulder gently. If Little Fairy refused, Yaeger would have Nangong watch over her temporarily, heal her legs, and repay any debts manifold. After that, they'd part ways.

Yaeger's loyalty was reserved solely for those she deemed irreplaceable allies, a principle she adopted post-reincarnation.

As Little Fairy looked up, ready to speak her mind, her words were eclipsed by an effervescent voice. "Master, I've returned!" Little Blue zoomed in, disrupting the tension. "This place is so dull, absolutely nothing here! Hey, Master, what's going on? Wait, don't hit me!"

Adorable squeals instantly filled the air.
