The office on the top floor of the skyscraper was vast and silent, occupied only by Ye Feng, Kiana, and Mei.
"You want me to leave? Hmph, I refuse, meow!"
Kiana snatched the silk fabric from Ye Feng's hand, pinching the four corners to hold it steady. Then, with her other hand, she delved into the opening, pushing forward, and forward still.
The fabric, pushed by Kiana's hand, stretched out continuously.
The surface of the black silk pressed against her forearm bulged visibly.
Yet, throughout this process, the fine, neat threads didn't deform in the slightest, as if the stretched portion were made of extra, extended material.
But her forearm, enveloped by the recoiling threads, could clearly feel the tensile force, it was so tight.
It had to be said, it was incredibly smooth, and the touch was extremely comfortable.
Kiana couldn't help but rub her forearm against it, the fabric-covered fist bulging outwards.
"What's this made of? It feels really different."
Little Bug gave another forceful push with her fist, her attention once again jumping to a new topic.
It was hard to say when it started, but in front of Ye Feng, Kiana had also lost her brain. She was very silly and... uh, no, very pure and innocent.
Meanwhile, the young lady of the Far East sat restlessly to the side, her face flushed red. Her two legs, wrapped in black pantyhose, were pressed tightly together, subconsciously rubbing against each other.
Mei placed her left hand across her chest to rest on her right arm and whispered, "Kiana, stop playing around..."
"Oh, okay."
Kiana pulled out her arm and handed the bodystocking to Mei.
"Ah! Wh-why are you giving it to me?"
Mei jumped in fright, waving her hands in refusal.
Ye Feng said, "It was originally prepared for Mei... no, I should say, it was prepared for 'Auntie Mei'."
"O-oh, al-alright..."
Hearing Ye Feng's words, a look of embarrassed shyness appeared on Mei's face. The mature and graceful beauty fidgeted, but still accepted what Feng-kun had specially prepared for her.
"..."
Kiana was a little unhappy.
Why is it that when I give it to Mei, she resists so much, looking like she detests it?
But when that dog bastard Ye Feng just says one word, she agrees no matter how embarrassing or shy she feels?
"It's not fair, meow!" Little Bug grumbled.
"What's not fair?" Ye Feng asked with a smile.
"It's just not fair, meow!"
Kiana turned her head away, her face full of displeasure.
After all, Little Bug didn't dare to criticize Mei, so venting her dissatisfaction on Ye Feng was no problem.
But with Mei here, throwing a tantrum for no reason would just make her seem unreasonable in Mei's eyes, wouldn't it?
Little Bug's gaze drifted, landing on the remote control she was clutching. Can this thing really control the bodystocking?
I wonder if it can control the tightness?
No, no, it definitely isn't that simple.
Kitty-Kiana shook her head forcefully, her fluffy cat tail swishing along with the movement. Her conflicted expression was adorable.
Should I try it or not?
I'll wait until Mei puts it on.
Thinking this, Kiana's mood instantly brightened. She pursed her lips cheerfully, her body swaying lightly from side to side as she looked at Auntie Mei in anticipation.
Although Auntie Mei had a mature and graceful figure, at heart, she was still a shy young girl. Being watched like this by her best friend and her lover made her cheeks burn.
She held the black bodystocking in her hands, completely at a loss, and looked at Ye Feng with pleading eyes, hoping he would "let her off."
"No can do, Mei. Kiana and I are both looking forward to it."
"Meow! Meow!"
Little Bug nodded vigorously and licked the back of her hand. She had never seen Mei wear something so... sexy and beautiful.
Mei's face was full of hesitation. Kiana, on the other hand, didn't matter.
She could just reject her outright. Besides, if she dared to make an outrageous request, Mei would definitely not let her get away with it.
But Ye Feng was different.
The gentle and elegant young lady of the Far East would not refuse her lover's reasonable requests.
Mei's gaze fell gently on Kiana, and she stammered, "Um... Kiana, could I trouble you to... step outside first..."
"Meow—??"
Little Bug's cheerful body, which had been swaying like a reed in the wind, instantly turned to stone.
Her azure eyes went wide, her face filled with grievance.
No, but why?!
Mei whispered, "I-I'm changing..."
"So what if Mei is changing, meow! That dog bastard Ye Feng gets to be here, why can't I?"
"How can that be the same," Mei said subconsciously.
The smile on Little Bug's face had long since vanished, and her heart was about to break.
We were naked together last time, so why am I being excluded this time?
Ye Feng couldn't help but tease Kitty-Kiana, "Just have Kiana cover her eyes."
"Huh?"
"Or would you rather go outside?"
"Ugh..."
Kiana's cat ears drooped as she glared fiercely at Ye Feng. "I get it, you're really the worst, meow!"
Ye Feng smiled and looked at Mei beside him. "This should be fine, right?"
Mei clutched the bodystocking to her chest, her eyes darting around. "...Since Feng-kun has said so..."
Kiana covered her eyes with both hands. Abiding by her knightly spirit, she didn't leave any gaps between her fingers to peek.
Listening to the rustling sounds of Mei undressing, her mind began to wander.
Just then, Ye Feng's consciousness forcefully and ferociously inserted itself into her mind.
"Little Bug, thanks to me, you don't have to wait outside. Otherwise, you might have had to play a rendition of 'Phoenix Courting Phoenix' on the jade flute. Aren't you going to thank Brother Ye Feng?"
"Thank your big head!" Kitty-Kiana's two ears shot straight up as she angrily replied through their mental link, "Don't think I don't know what you're planning, meow."
"Oh?" Ye Feng chuckled. "Then why don't you tell me, Little Bug, what am I planning?"
"Hmph, you're going to have Mei 'adapt' first, and then you'll take her to a party, meow!"
A future where I'm not present is not the future I want!
"Tsk, tsk, tsk. Kiana can say such things with a straight face now? It seems my guidance and education have been quite effective."
Actually, that wasn't it.
If this weren't a mental conversation, even if Kiana thought it, she definitely wouldn't have been able to say it out loud, or at least her wording wouldn't have been so direct. She sounded just like a little lewd bug.
But a mental conversation was different; thoughts were transmitted in their entirety in a single rush.
Kiana shuddered. She clearly hadn't realized the subtle difference.
Have I really been corrupted by him?
Tap~
Another extremely faint sound of fabric falling to the floor came from ahead, and Kiana's thoughts began to wander again.
Was that the white blouse, or the OL skirt?
In the pitch-black darkness, Kiana's hearing was even sharper.
Just from the sound alone, Little Bug could almost picture the scene of Mei's shy movements, the tension was palpable.
Damn it!
Why does that dog bastard Ye Feng get to enjoy the view... while I have to cover my eyes like a coward?
Should I open a tiny little gap in my fingers?
...Just, just a little one.
This intense ripple of consciousness was transmitted like a tidal wave.
Ye Feng didn't point it out.
He just noted that when Mei's fair arms went to unfasten the hook on her back, her hands paused in mid-air as she looked straight at Kiana.
Ye Feng chuckled again. "Little Bug is really as sharp as a tack. I can't hide anything from you. But, since you already know my objective, why are you still here? Aren't you suspected of aiding the villain?"
"Huh? If I'm not here, you wouldn't do it, meow? You'd just find someone else, meow, like that Elysia who pretends to be cute!"
Kiana was still holding a grudge over that.
That day, she had desperately reached out her hand, only to watch as Elysia and Mei walked further and further away, talking and laughing.
What a great wound that had inflicted upon Kiana's pure and young heart.
"Ely is genuinely cute, and she's not pretending. Though when I first met her, I also thought she was the 'pink-on-the-outside, black-on-the-inside' type. Elysia single-handedly changed my perception of pink-haired characters."
Ye Feng had his reasons for having a strong impression of pink-haired girls, such as Yuno Gasai, Satō Matsuzaka, and even Lacus Clyne.
However, most pink-haired girls were actually the gentle type, but they lacked distinct features and were easily forgotten.
But the moment a "contrast" appears, it leaves a deep impression, especially since contrasting pink-haired characters seemed to pop up one after another.
Kiana covered her eyes tightly.
"I don't care! Since Mei has to 'grow' eventually anyway, then I'd rather do it myself, meow."
"That's consequentialism, Little Bug. Sometimes, the 'process' is much more interesting than the 'result.'"
"Hmph, what process and result? Mumbo-jumbo, meow. Stop trying to trick me! Anyway, I won't hand Mei over to that pink fatty, meow!"
Ye Feng chuckled darkly.
"Then you'll have to get on your knees and beg me."
"?"
Kiana froze for a second, but only a second. She swiftly adjusted her attitude.
"Darling, why, meow?"
Little Bug was getting more and more skilled.
But she knew this was a disguise, a pretense of compliance!
It was merely a tactic to deal with this great demon king.
The spirit of a Kaslana knight could never truly be broken.
"I have to say, Little Bug, your adaptability is really strong."
"Of course, meow."
Kiana puffed out her chest with pride.
"Alright, seeing how sincere you are, I'll tell you another secret."
"What secret, meow?"
"The remote in your hand can also be used to adjust Elysia's frequency."
Oh?
Kitty-Kiana, still covering her eyes, pouted. The frequency of her mental waves spiked noticeably.
She looked at the pink remote in her hand, and the corners of her mouth gradually curved upwards.
Controlling others is a no-go, but if it's Elysia... not only can I mess with her frequency, but I can also control the black bodystocking on Mei. Hehe, hehehe, Gyehehehehe!!
---o---
Bronya sped along the road to uncovering the truth on her motorcycle.
The star-like background around her flew by rapidly. After an unknown amount of time, a white circle of light finally appeared ahead.
"Is that the entrance?"
Bronya twisted the throttle, and the engine let out a beast-like roar. The bike turned into a stream of blue and white light and shot into the gate of light.
The world slowly unfolded before her eyes.
"Hm? This place is...?"
The all-too-familiar scenery made Bronya's eyes widen slightly.
St. Freya High School?
Why?
The Bronya didn't head to... huh?
Bronya felt the pull of gravity on her chest. She couldn't help but look down at the majestic curves that stood proudly. Her long, rounded legs were wrapped in black pantyhose.
A familiar body!
That's right, this was Bronya's future self.
The silver-haired beauty straddled the motorcycle, balancing with one foot on the ground. She looked valiant, heroic, beautiful, and moving.
It was only at this moment that Bronya was completely certain that all her thoughts and desires were real.
They were definitely not a fleeting dream.
The Bronya was one step closer to her husband.
But why St. Freya High School?
As she looked around, a voice as gentle as a flower reached her.
"The day before yesterday it was a little kitty, yesterday it was a little bird, and today it's you."
Miss Pink Elf, dressed in a sailor uniform, stepped through the morning light and walked slowly towards her. Flowers bloomed in her wake.
Golden light shone from an angle, outlining Elysia's figure in a golden trim.
Bronya's pupils contracted. "...Officer Elysia?"
"Hello there, Bronya."
Elysia waved her hand happily. Dressed in a JK sailor uniform, she looked innocent and romantic.
Although the outfit certainly fit the background here, Bronya couldn't help but feel it was incredibly out of place.
"Officer Elysia, were you waiting here for the Bronya specifically?"
"Oh my, you saw right through me. That's right, I was waiting here especially for Bronya's arrival. I'm so glad you didn't take that other path."
"The other path?"
"A gentleness that makes you close your eyes."
Bronya got off the motorcycle and stood before Elysia, asking, "What's over there?"
"Mobius."
Bronya pondered for a moment. "Officer Mobius..."
"Ah, my apologies, I forgot to tell you. We're not police officers. That was all just a [Script]."
"[Script]?"
Bronya's heart seized. The word triggered some bad associations, and her voice couldn't help but tremble. "...What do you mean?"
"Ah, sorry, that phrasing seems to have caused a misunderstanding," Elysia said, leaning her upper body forward as if to get closer. She gently held up her index finger and said, "But, I can promise you this: the world is fake, but the love is real."
"The Bronya's husband..."
"Mhm, he's real too."
Hearing this answer, Bronya let out a long sigh of relief.
As long as her husband was waiting at the end, what did it matter if the world was fake?
Elysia continued, "I'm here at his request to tell you the truth about this world. Actually, I wanted to come myself as well... mm, mmmph~~"
A sound of utterly suppressed pleasure escaped from the pure and flawless Miss Elf's nose.
Bzzzzzz~~~
It was accompanied by a sound like the buzzing of a bee's wings.
"..."
"..."
The air fell silent.
Bronya's eyebrow twitched. She looked at Elysia with a gaze that bordered on contempt.
Having been a wife for so long, and under Ye Feng's careful tutelage, she of course understood what that sound was.
Seriously? Officer Elysia brought that thing with her out here, and even said she was waiting for the Bronya specifically?
