2. I Have a Bold Idea

Even though the ‘main storyline’ in the script was once disrupted, leading to the current situation where Kfeier and Nilu’s script still lacks any new content regarding the ‘future,’ I still believe that these two ‘protagonists’ in front of me cannot gradually become mere bystanders just because of this level of ‘failure.’

There’s always a way out; in the past, as the ‘big villain,’ I could still escape thanks to the power of the script. This time, as the protagonists, the two girls should not, and cannot, be trapped by the absence of a ‘main storyline’! My own ‘life’ is certainly important, but now I’m willing to risk everything to help them find ‘new content’!

What I want to seriously tell Kfeier and Nilu is this plan! On the way here, I didn’t have the chance to express it properly due to the chaos caused by Rose, but now that we’ve returned to the Great Ying Empire and the queen has taken Rose away for the night, I finally found the opportunity to speak earnestly.

“What’s wrong? Why are you suddenly so serious…”

Kfeier was a bit bewildered by my ‘serious’ demeanor, immediately glancing at Nilu, probably suspecting that Nilu had said something strange to me, making me so earnest.

“Eh? Miss, did you perhaps hint at something to Mr. Oujili?”

Coincidentally… Nilu thought the same, casting a questioning look at Kfeier.

In reality, neither of the two had given me any ‘reminders’ about the setbacks we faced in the Meri United Kingdom; the dangers encountered; the oversights noticed. Compared to before, Kfeier and Nilu had undergone a complete transformation, and they no longer needed to separately remind me. Instead, they naturally chose to face the crisis together and bear the challenges ahead.

To put it simply: they no longer cared about the gains and losses of being with me. The concern from the two big shots certainly made me feel elated, but as a responsible man, even if it was just some “formalities,” I still wanted to express myself seriously in this moment.

At that moment, I suddenly felt incredibly handsome! However, the next moment I realized: my words, as charming as they were, seemed to have inadvertently… opened Pandora’s box.

The elusive relationship between Ke Fei’er and Ni Lu meant that with just a glance, they confirmed that neither had said anything to me. My earlier words were merely heartfelt. So, understanding this, both Ke Fei’er and Ni Lu surely wanted to respond in some way, and the way these two big shots chose to respond…

I immediately understood completely.

Ke Fei’er smiled as she tucked her long hair behind her ear, but… while she claimed it was to fix her hair, to me, it felt more like she was showing off something she was wearing on her ring finger to Ni Lu.

“At this point, we are already in ‘this’ kind of relationship, what do you have to worry about, Ou Ji Li De? Don’t concern yourself with success or failure; I will be by your side through it all.”

A precious ring, even with just a hint of light, could shine brightly in the night.

And sure enough, it caught Ni Lu’s eye.

“Mr. Ou Ji Li De, everything in the realm of fairies I have rebuilt, the Rodema Empire, belongs to you. Please don’t worry about whether your actions are right or wrong, for you are our eternal master. Even if you continue to be wrong, I will accompany you to the end, ‘King.’”

Ni Lu’s initial words, aside from sounding a bit “sickly,” were fine, but… the problem was her last remark, which she just had to add.

“Unlike a certain tigress who constantly reminds you what to do~”

“!”

It was then that I began to regret why I had to so earnestly apologize to the two women tonight, but… it was too late.

“Ni Lu, you haven’t forgotten what you did to him before Ou Ji Li De forgave you, have you!?”

“That’s why I admire the ‘King’s’ generosity and tolerance, willing to follow all his decisions~ completely different from certain ‘noble young ladies’ who have been taking advantage of the ‘King’ from the very beginning~”

Ke Fei’er and Ni Lu began their “daily task” again, and tonight was even more different!

In the past, I could find an excuse to slip away; Ke Fei’er and Ni Lu would be too busy with their own banter to care about me. But not this time! The topic had gradually shifted from “Can you do it or not?” to focus on me, and just as I was about to use the old trick of “urine escape,” the eager arguing Ke Fei’er and Ni Lu each wrapped an arm around me!

“Forgiving you is his right, not his obligation. And whether I am seeking his ‘abilities’ or helping him, Ni Lu, you have no right to answer for Ou Ji Li De!”

Ke Fei’er clung to my arm, “claiming her territory.”

“Ke Fei’er, your help is just offering your looks and body, which I find rather ordinary? Hmph, if that’s the case, my fairies can offer ‘King’ even better versions of themselves at any time.”

However, my “territory” here is a bit large; Ke Fei’er is holding one side, while the other side has fallen to Nilu.

“Body, body, Nilu! Don’t look at me with such a vulgar gaze! Clearly, I am much more important to him than you are!”

“Perhaps that’s true now, Ke Fei’er, but in the future… who knows?” Nilu smiled mysteriously. “After all, who came first, Miss? I still have my ‘trump card’ to play to maintain some harmony in front of the ‘king.'”

“That…”

At the center of the whirlpool, I finally found an opportunity at the moment when the two women were exchanging ‘fire’ with their gazes. Weakly raising my hands, I said, “It’s late, and it wouldn’t be good to disturb others. Can I go to sleep now?”

Only then did the two women’s attitudes show a hint of restraint.

However, while their gazes were restrained, their actions were not.

“Did you hear that, Nilu? You can leave now.”

Ke Fei’er was still holding onto my arm, naturally wanting to drive away Nilu, the maid. “Go tidy up your own room; I’m even willing to let you stay here, so you should restrain yourself a bit.”

However, tonight, Nilu, provoked by Ke Fei’er’s words, had no intention of leaving.

“It’s you who should leave, Miss. This is Mr. Oujili’s room; what do you intend to do by staying here? As for me, as a maid, it is only right that I accompany him until he rests.”

“!”

In an instant, the gazes of the two women became “sharp,” and I, caught in the middle, could almost hear the sound of lightning crackling back and forth.

“Nilu, don’t think I don’t know what you’re trying to do.”

“Likewise, Ke Fei’er.”

Well… don’t think you two know each other’s intentions; I completely understand what both of you are thinking right now!

After all, after a long journey, I finally returned to my familiar home. At the moment when my body and mind finally escaped from danger, it was also the most relaxed and the easiest time to let my thoughts run wild!

However, the situation before me clearly had no immediate resolution. Neither Ke Fei’er nor Nilu had the means to directly “crush” the other, and as for me… how could I possibly decide who should leave at a time like this!

So, just at the moment when Ke Fei’er and Nilu were at odds…

It was probably the rest after the long journey that made my mind wander. A bold idea suddenly popped into my head, and before I could control my mouth, I blurted it out.

“Then… shall we all stay?”
