Vol 3. Chapter 45: Drunken Antics
"Sis... Sister... Sleep with me... Mmm..."
Hearing adorable little Mengxi's plea, Miss Yumo's mind completely froze for a moment.
Everyone knew that one of Miss Yumo's greatest weaknesses...
Was that she simply couldn't resist being spoiled.
Especially when it came from children.
That was precisely why all the little ones in the Winter Forest would act cute and cling to her every time they got into trouble, hoping to earn her forgiveness.
As it turned out...
The strategy worked remarkably well.
Unless someone had gone completely overboard like Limo had before, committing one "bad deed" after another...
Yumo simply couldn't bring herself to take out the feather duster.
Enmm...
Strictly speaking, as long as they were smart enough not to court disaster, they generally wouldn't get hit by the feather duster anyway...
Ever since they had lived together for a while in that little cabin deep within the Winter Forest...
Yumo had subconsciously come to regard Mengxi as a younger sister she needed to take care of.
And from a certain perspective...
A younger sister was still a child.
Because of that...
Mengxi still possessed the ultimate weapon—
Acting cute and acting spoiled.
Now, with the drunken girl clutching the corner of her skirt and pleading in that soft, spoiled tone for Yumo to stay with her, the familiar voice instantly brought back memories of those happy days in the little cabin.
Overwhelmed with nostalgia...
Yumo found it almost impossible to refuse.
Besides...
Mengxi was drunk enough that someone really did need to stay and look after her.
Yumo didn't trust anyone else with that responsibility.
She might as well do it herself...
And besides...
Didn't this count as "speaking the truth after drinking"?
Although she had no idea why...
This girl genuinely seemed to like her.
And depended on her quite a lot...
'I really don't know what to do with you~'
Letting out a helpless sigh in her heart, Yumo gently patted the silver-haired girl's little head before leaning down and whispering into her ear,
"Alright, alright. Big Sister isn't leaving. I'll stay here with you. Be good~"
"Mmm~"
Only after hearing those words did the half-conscious girl finally loosen her grip on Yumo's skirt.
The faint aura of unease surrounding her gradually disappeared as well.
Afterward...
Miss Yumo changed out of her formal dress and into the brand-new pajamas Saiboke-Baniya had prepared for her.
Removing her shoes...
The black-haired girl carefully climbed into bed.
Almost as though she had sensed Yumo's warmth and presence, Mengxi immediately snuggled closer without a second thought, wrapping both arms tightly around Yumo's arm.
At the same time, her pair of snow-white, smooth, beautifully slender legs slid directly over Yumo's body.
As expected...
Yumo's elbow became buried between the two soft mounds on Mengxi's chest.
The astonishingly elastic sensation caused Miss Yumo's cheeks to flush slightly.
In the blink of an eye...
Little Mengxi had attached herself tightly to Yumo, making the latter shake her head with a helpless smile.
Although she had long since grown accustomed to Mengxi's affectionate behavior...
This was the first time she'd experienced the girl acting like this while completely drunk.
It felt rather novel.
Seeing Mengxi quietly rest her head on her shoulder, Yumo smiled with affectionate indulgence.
A crimson light flashed briefly through her eyes.
Surrounded by countless Blood Butterflies, a quilt slowly floated over from the other side of the room.
Under Yumo's control, it gently settled over both of them.
No matter what...
The weather was still extremely cold.
Catching a chill would be troublesome.
After making sure Mengxi was comfortable...
Yumo slowly closed her eyes and began organizing everything she had seen and learned throughout the day.
There had been quite a few things during today's banquet that caught her attention.
The golden light in Xue Tianao-Valedin's eyes...
The relationship between Mengxi and Xue Tianao-Valedin...
The experts from the various forces across the continent...
And many other matters besides.
'The world really is becoming lively...'
Miss Yumo sighed inwardly.
...
...
Time quietly slipped away.
Night had grown deep.
The entire city had fallen into silence.
Within that quiet atmosphere...
While recalling everything that had happened during the day, Miss Yumo once again entered her "statue mode" to pass the time.
Suddenly...
She frowned.
An unfamiliar sensation coming from her body caused her heart to skip a beat.
Countless question marks filled the girl's mind.
Hm?
What's going on?
Who's moving around on top of me?!
Confused, Yumo's consciousness immediately withdrew from her mental space and returned to her body.
As her awareness came back...
She slowly opened her eyes.
The next instant...
Miss Yumo's pupils abruptly contracted.
Her sapphire-blue eyes filled with shock and disbelief.
'M-Mengxi?'
Instead of the familiar ceiling...
The first thing she saw was an exquisitely beautiful face.
Apparently...
While she had been in "statue mode," Mengxi—still wearing nothing but her underwear—had somehow climbed on top of her.
The quilt that had covered them both had disappeared without a trace.
"Mengxi... What are you doing?"
Yumo asked in confusion.
Had this girl...
Sobered up?
The moment the question left her lips, however, Yumo immediately rejected that thought.
She discovered that Mengxi's face was even redder than before.
Those beautiful lavender eyes remained hazy and unfocused.
Her mind was obviously still completely muddled.
At this moment...
Mengxi no longer resembled the holy maiden she usually was.
Instead...
She had transformed into a captivating little temptress.
Every smile and every glance seemed capable of stealing someone's soul.
Faced with Yumo's question, Mengxi curled her lips into a smile completely at odds with her innocent appearance—
A smile filled with mischief and unmistakable desire.
"Hehe... Sister~"
After letting out a string of bell-like laughter...
Mengxi's little hands immediately began wandering boldly all over Yumo's body.
Gone was her usual graceful, ladylike demeanor.
Without the slightest hesitation, she boldly undid Yumo's pajama top.
Even the blue bra beneath was deftly removed.
Yumo's graceful, exquisitely proportioned figure, together with her pair of delicate, flowerbud-like breasts, was completely revealed before Mengxi.
"Eh?!"
Mengxi's outrageous actions left Miss Yumo utterly stunned.
It felt as though billions of volts had struck her brain all at once, leaving her completely numb.
She could only stare at the silver-haired girl pinning her beneath her with eyes full of disbelief.
Fortunately...
She quickly regained her senses.
Because Mengxi's hands had already begun roaming even more boldly across her body.
They even brushed against the delicate pink buds of her breasts, causing Miss Yumo's face to become as red as a perfectly ripe apple.
"So soft~... Sister's body is so comfortable~ Hehe~"
The intense stimulation spreading through her body finally snapped Yumo completely back to reality.
Looking at the silver-haired girl who seemed like an entirely different person from her usual self, realization suddenly flashed through Yumo's sapphire eyes.
This girl...
Don't tell me...
She's gone completely wild after getting drunk?!
Wait...
Isn't this the legendary "drunken assault"?!
Holy—
"Hey! You little troublemaker, stop fooling around!"
Although Mengxi's teasing felt embarrassingly pleasant...
Yumo's reason ultimately prevailed.
Without hesitation, she grabbed both of Mengxi's mischievous hands and restrained them.
If she didn't stop them now...
Those wandering hands would probably invade somewhere they absolutely shouldn't.
Being thoroughly groped like that?
She definitely couldn't handle it!
"You naughty girl! Wake up already!"
Hearing Yumo's protest...
Mengxi merely tilted her head adorably.
She didn't answer at all.
Instead, she continued trying to cuddle up intimately against the black-haired girl beneath her.
Unfortunately for her...
Yumo's strength was on an entirely different level.
With both wrists firmly held, Mengxi couldn't move her hands no matter how hard she struggled.
Unable to break free, she puffed out her cheeks unhappily and looked down at Yumo with pitifully aggrieved eyes.
This time, however...
Yumo steeled her heart.
She refused to release the girl's wrists despite that adorable expression.
After all...
If she let go now...
She had a feeling her chastity really would be in danger...
Unfortunately...
Yumo forgot one very important thing.
Mengxi wasn't limited to using only her hands~
Realizing she couldn't escape Yumo's grip, the silver-haired girl first looked disappointed.
Her lavender eyes brimmed with grievance as she gazed at Yumo's face.
Then...
As though struck by sudden inspiration...
A bright smile spread across her face once more.
Her gaze slowly drifted downward...
Stopping on Yumo's soft pink lips.
"Sister... I like you~..."
"Hm?"
Yumo froze when she suddenly heard those words.
And in that tiny instant of distraction—
Mengxi smiled mischievously.
She suddenly leaned forward.
Before Miss Yumo had any chance to react...
The silver-haired girl directly captured Yumo's soft lips between her own teeth.
Yumo: ??!!!
