The next day, when Liana opened her eyes, it was already afternoon.

She didn’t know what time they had gone on until yesterday; she just felt that her memory was a bit hazy and her head hurt. This couldn’t go on! This was not okay...

But... it did seem to feel really good... and a little... addictive.

Liana quickly shook her head, trying to fling the shameful thought away. How could I be thinking about such things! It must be because of Mephilia! It’s all her fault! For making me... too comfortable.

“Mmm...”

Of course, the culprit was currently still hugging Liana, fast asleep.

“Mephilia, it’s time to wake up,” Liana called out.

Although their scheduled meeting was in the afternoon, hadn’t they overslept a little?

“Mmm...” Mephilia looked at Liana with sleepy eyes and hugged her tightly.

Because the two of them had gone through a fierce battle all night, neither was wearing any clothes, ~Nоvеl𝕚ght~ their skin in intimate contact.

Liana could feel their two points touching each other.

Mephilia was in a half-asleep state, so she wouldn’t think there was anything wrong with this. But Liana was different; she was wide awake right now. You’re pulling this stuff right after I wake up?

Moreover, Mephilia wasn’t a very still sleeper, and she held Liana tightly.

Such intimate contact made Liana blush with shame. She struggled out of Mephilia’s embrace and quickly threw on a nightgown.

But she could still see two slight protrusions on it...

This is no good...

Liana felt that she was really becoming a bit strange. She had to stop this kind of behavior!

At this time, Mephilia also slowly woke up.

“Good morning, Liana.” Mephilia stretched languidly in front of Liana without any reservations.

The blanket slowly slipped from her shoulders. With the movement, the fullness of her body became even more eye-catching. To put it simply, Liana’s aim-lock was activated.1开锁头 (kāi suǒtóu), a gaming slang for using an aimbot cheat.

No, no! Liana patted her own cheeks, went to Mephilia’s side, and covered her body with the blanket.

“Do you have any idea what time it is,” Liana said irritably.

“We’re not late. The appointment is for the afternoon, I remember it clearly. Right now is still our own time.” Mephilia’s voice was soft and syrupy, giving the impression that she would fall over with a gentle push.

But Liana knew very well that this was an illusion. If she really did that, the consequences would be very serious.

“Fine.” Liana was at her wit’s end with Mephilia. She poured her a glass of water. “You should still hurry up and get dressed.”

After taking the glass, Mephilia seemed to notice something and revealed a mysterious smile. “But as I am now, it’s not very easy for me to get dressed.”

“Hm? Why?” If anyone’s out of energy, it should be me. After all, I’m the one who was taking your attacks all night.

“Because... look, Liana.” Mephilia held out her left hand.

“Auuu!” Liana directly opened her mouth and took Mephilia’s fingers into it.

As for why? Because Liana saw that Mephilia’s fingers were wrinkled, the kind that only happens after being soaked in water for a long time.

As for what kind of “water” they were soaked in, that went without saying. That was why Liana was so anxious to take Mephilia’s fingers into her mouth, to destroy the evidence.

“I get it, I get it. I’ll help you get dressed,” Liana said, exasperated.

“Then you can’t touch me wherever you want, okay,” Mephilia emphasized.

Can’t? You actually want me to hurry up and touch you!

Did Liana not know what Mephilia was thinking?

But at this point, Liana didn’t want a round two, so she properly helped Mephilia get dressed.

However, Mephilia herself was not so well-behaved, deliberately rubbing against Liana. But Liana was unaffected right now.

After helping Mephilia get dressed, Liana wanted to find a topic to skip over what happened last night.

But Mephilia had no intention of letting her off the hook. She looked at her own fingers, which had now mostly recovered. “Yesterday... how did it feel?”

“Shouldn’t we get ready and head out? I just heard from Minoga that Princess Nimeris and Oester will be coming over too,” Liana said.

“Oh? Is that so?”

“Yes, most likely we’ll all be discussing the alliance together.” Liana didn’t know what the relationship between Princess Nimeris and Second Prince Oester was like now.

But from the fact that the two of them were attending together, at the very least, they probably didn’t dislike each other.

And Sephirena had told Liana before that Nimeris was the type of elf who rather disliked humans.

For her to be able to get along harmoniously with Oester... Liana would absolutely not believe there was nothing going on.

“Are you worried about Oester?” Mephilia asked.

“Mm, I suppose so.” After all, this was an interaction between two villains. Liana was certainly on high alert.

“Don’t worry, Liana. I will handle Oester.” Although Mephilia couldn’t guarantee anything about Princess Nimeris, she still had ways to deal with Oester.

“Okay.” Liana nodded and changed into a different set of clothes.

“Although the agreed time is in the afternoon, we can’t let others wait too long, can we?” Liana said.

“True, but being delayed by a few minutes is no problem.” Mephilia stopped Liana. “From the moment you woke up until now, you seem to have been avoiding me.”

“No, I haven’t.” Liana’s eyes darted away, not daring to look directly at Mephilia.

“Then look at me.” Mephilia took Liana’s chin in her hand. “Besides, you still haven’t answered my question from just now.”

“Liana, yesterday... it felt really good, right?”

“...I don’t know.” Liana’s face turned red with shame, and she looked away.

This was exactly the kind of little expression Mephilia wanted to see. It was too cute, too delicious.

“Your voice yesterday was even more charming than before. How about from now on, you wear it all the time?” Mephilia said.

Liana slapped a hand on Mephilia’s face, pushing her away. “Alright! We should be going! Stop messing around!”

“Hehe~” Mephilia just loved this side of Liana, it was too cute.

However, she had to tease Liana in moderation, otherwise... she wouldn’t be able to stop herself.

“After all, once we go out, we’ll have to keep our distance again, so for now...” Mephilia captured Liana’s lips.

This time, Liana didn’t say anything, but closed her eyes and properly accepted Mephilia.

“Alright, it’s time to go find them. I wonder what will happen next.”
