"The only person I can think of who would be with Shenhe, besides her master, is you. So it was easy to guess, though I was worried I might be wrong."
Lu Ze replied with a smile, after all, basic courtesy was essential.
"Is that so? Then I didn't expect that. Thank you for what happened earlier. If it weren't for you, it would have been difficult to resolve. Knowing this girl's personality, she would have definitely fought them."
Shenhe felt a bit embarrassed by her master's words, perhaps because Lu Ze was present?
"It's nothing. What are you two doing in Liyue so late? If you want to go shopping, I can take you."
Lu Ze looked at the tall beauty, tsk. He had to admit, this Zhenjun had a great figure. Everything was in its right place. In reality, she would definitely be a hot commodity.
"Me? I want to experience Honkai Impact 3rd that Shenhe mentioned. I thought the promotional videos you showed were quite good. Mainly, I want to understand the construction of the mechanisms within, which might provide me with some good inspiration."
Seeing another lottery ticket being delivered, how could Lu Ze not be happy? He quickly led the two back to his shop. What was going on today? Double happiness, two lottery tickets.
It seemed his luck was good today. He might as well do another pull.
As the screen appeared, a character icon popped out. One black and one blue flew out from the lottery machine. Shenhe, standing nearby, looked at the scene with a little surprise.
She was curious, what were these two light clusters? Although the icon just now wasn't a Honkai Impact 3rd character icon, it couldn't possibly conjure a person, right?
But if she thought that, she might be proven wrong. Wendy in the kitchen saw the new members and shouted:
"Hey! Everyone, stop slacking upstairs, come down quickly to welcome the new member."
Shenhe, standing beside her, was a bit bewildered. Could it really be a person? Impossible, right? Impossible!?
As the light faded, a girl stood quietly in place, her eyes closed, her white dress swaying slightly. There was even a white flower on her head, and she held a large scythe in her hand.
Her white gloves gripped tightly, like a noble white lotus, only to be admired from afar, not to be profaned.
"Where... where is this? Hmm? Aren't you, Lu Ze?! Wait, how does that big sister look so much like Bronya sister? Hmm? Liliya? Rosaria? Why are you all here too?"
Seeing a slightly dazed Seele, the Vodka girl couldn't resist teasing her. However, the joy of reunion made them hesitate.
So they embraced her instead, their faces beaming with happiness.
"Seele, you guessed correctly. That is Bronya sister, she's just grown up. Has she changed a lot?"
Hearing Rosaria's explanation, Seele was completely dumbfounded. Where was her cute little loli? Where was the little loli who was only about 1.5 meters tall?
Why did she turn into an 1.8-meter mature woman? And I'm still a little girl? This is not fair!
Suddenly, a dark aura appeared. A person who looked exactly like Seele appeared beside her, smiling at Lu Ze.
"Long time no see! Although she doesn't remember, it doesn't mean I don't remember! That promise, I've always kept it~ When do you plan to fulfill it?"
Black Seele floated directly in front of Lu Ze and lifted his chin with her slender index finger, her smile not fading in the slightest, but rather intensifying.
In her eyes, besides longing and yearning, there was also some... unidentifiable gaze. How to put it? Yandere? Those two words are not good! As the saying goes, falling in love with a yandere is an accident. A yandere falling in love with you is a disaster.
"Ah... Black Seele, don't be like this... I... everyone is watching... you're making me very awkward like this."
Lu Ze never expected to pull Seele, and even the "Dark Herrscher" variant! He was in trouble. Back then, he was quite bold.
Shenhe, standing beside him, felt a surge of displeasure for some reason. Her ice-blue spear directly thrust towards Black Seele. On the other side, Bronya also pointed her spear at Black Seele.
"Let him go. Let's talk things out properly. Don't get handsy."
Before she could finish, the ice-blue spear had already reached the battlefield. But Black Seele flashed backward, easily dodging the attack. Her crimson pupils fixed on Shenhe.
"You outsider, forget it. Bronya sister... have you also fallen for this person? Don't you know? Actually... I was the first one!"
Hearing Black Seele's words, Seele looked at Bronya sister, then at Black Seele. The atmosphere was getting tense. What should she do? Help this side or that side? She couldn't decide for a moment.
Wendy stood aside watching the show, silently lamenting how many people this scoundrel had offended. It couldn't be that he had offended everyone in the Honkai game, could he?
Hmph, I'll capture the leader first tonight. You guys can fight it out slowly. The winner will definitely be me.
"What do you mean by that, little sister Black Seele! I don't remember you ever interacting with Lu Ze. Or is this just your own idea?"
Bronya's molars were grinding. What did she mean by "the first one"? Although she wasn't the first, it shouldn't be you, right? If it were Kiana, I would be convinced, but you? Forget it!
"Oh? Should I help you recall? Back in the orphanage..."
Before she could finish, Lu Ze frantically covered her mouth, sweat pouring down his forehead as his mind raced, trying to figure out what to do...
After all, this matter couldn't be revealed. If it were, it wouldn't just be death, he might be chased and hacked to death by someone with a greatsword...
"Listen to me! My grandmothers, can you calm down for a bit? If you keep arguing, there will be no result. And it's almost lunchtime. How about we eat first? Ah! Why are you biting my finger?"
Black Seele, whose mouth had been covered, bit Lu Ze's finger directly. Blood instantly appeared, and she looked triumphant, as if she had achieved a great victory.
"What you did to me back then, you and I both know it. However, your blood... still tastes the same as back then..."
Hearing Black Seele's words, Bronya became even more curious about what had happened. Could there be memories she didn't know about? Impossible, right!
