Chapter 238: Celebrating on Base! but Who Is the Winner (3)
"Crimson Moon, do you accept defeat gracefully?"
Suyu sat with her legs crossed, her slender black legs and lazy demeanor were captivating.
The Master of Night Demon knelt in an ORZ shape on the ground, a chess piece fell from his hand to the ground, and even half of his mask couldn’t hide his defeated and incredulous expression.
"How is this possible… I clearly tried to think differently, why did I still lose?! It’s impossible, why was I just a step away over twenty years ago, and yet I haven’t improved at all now?"
Suyu stretched out her hand and let out a small yawn. Her purple eyes shimmered with a hint of a smile.
Comparing anything to pushing her mind reading skills to the extreme was just asking for trouble.
Of course, making her opponents lose by just one move each time was just her twisted sense of fun.
Crimson Moon has made significant progress, but she is impatient and stubborn, which shows in her chess style.
Even without using mind reading skills, focusing on her weaknesses can still be effective.
"So, with three wins in two games, you have lost two in a row."
Suyu said, lifting her chin with her hand. "Can you fulfill your promise now?"
Crimson Moon looked into her eyes, feeling a bit confused, but soon replaced it with determination. "No! When I said three wins in two games, I meant three separate matches, chess being just one of them!"
Suyu furrowed her brow, withdrew her hand, and lazily sat back in her chair.
"Your competitiveness is still so strong."
At that moment, the Master of Night Demon was no longer as calm as when they first met.
She clenched her teeth and said, "If it were you, being surpassed by a bad guy in every game since childhood, would you be willing to accept it?!"
"You said it yourself, it’s just a game."
Suyu rubbed her forehead, picked up her cup of tea, and said, "Forget it, as the Demon King and your old friend, I’ll be lenient with you. So, what do you want to bet on?"
"Bet on…"
Seeing Suyu’s relaxed attitude, Crimson Moon realized it was a game. Excited and confident, he raised his fist in anticipation.
"I bet on your man! This time, I want to play a game of love and snatch your boyfriend away!"
"*Click*"
The tea cup in hand was instantly shattered by magic into pieces scattered on the ground.
Suyu’s expression seemed to freeze, her tone becoming colder, "Absolutely not possible!"
"Are you afraid? Well, my esteemed Lord Demon King, with such a terrible personality and flatness, it is indeed difficult to capture a man’s heart."
The sarcastic remarks were like dancing on the Demon King’s head.
It hit Suyu’s weak spot indeed. Although she was always confident in her charm, there were just too many competitors!
Saying A is A, difficult to prevent, a hero who can grow to her level in the future.
A princess who is legitimate and can easily win favor by being so coquettish.
Having a natural fondness, irresistible loyalty, and charm, like the Sister Sword Saint.
They are all so difficult to deal with, one more troublesome than the other!
A hint of embarrassment and anger flickered in Suyu’s eyes, her demeanor suddenly changed, purple light shining in her eyes with a chilling aura, carrying a strong sense of pressure.
"Crimson Moon, please don’t challenge my limits."
Crimson Moon was overwhelmed by the imposing pressure, struggling to catch her breath, but mostly surprised.
"You are actually doing this for a man…"
As the words were about to come out, a sense of danger made her shiver, she quickly changed the subject, no longer provoking Suyu.
"Forget it, since it’s like this… let’s switch to a different competition."
The pressure instantly eased, the stagnant air began to flow again, Suyu’s expression turned indifferent, her interest fleeting.
"It’s a pity, I have no interest in continuing to play with you."
Crimson Moon quickly got up, pleading, "Please! Let’s continue the wager! Best of three rounds, I won’t change my mind! And I promise not to bring up excessive bets again, okay?!"
The Demon King looked a bit calmer, but still seemed angry. He waved lazily and said, "Boring, I might as well go see my junior brother instead."
They’re still showing affection at this time!
This person has always been so annoying from childhood to adulthood!
Whenever we study together, she’s the one who always receives praise.
And that darn bloodline suppression, I’ve never been able to beat her because of it.
Even in playing games, there’s not a single one I can win against her.
This person always takes advantage and acts innocent, being so annoyingly charming. How can you not feel frustrated about it?
Only… only Oupai can still win.
How can someone so ordinary get a boyfriend before her?
All the good men in this world have disappeared. The extremely wicked and sly Demon King doesn’t stand a chance!
How frustrating! I can’t accept this. I definitely… definitely can’t let her leave with a victorious attitude!
Compared to others, Crimson Moon may not have such a strong desire to win.
However, facing this arrogant Demon King who is clearly in exile but always has a trick up his sleeve, she is ten thousand times unwilling to accept it, to the point of becoming paranoid.
So, with fiery determination in her eyes, Crimson Moon slowly said, "You decide the outcome of this game, Lord Demon King."
"This is getting interesting."
The fox chuckled to himself, leaned in close to her and whispered, "Don’t accuse me of bullying you. Let’s compete in your area of expertise… the Holy Empire…"
After hearing this, Crimson Moon looked at Suyu suspiciously and asked, "Are you planning something again, trying to use me?"
"Oh my, are you going or not?"
"Go!"
Crimson Moon didn’t waste the opportunity and made a firm decision, full of determination.
"Let’s make a deal, you better not go back on your word later!"
"Hah, do you think I’m your servant? Get out of here."
Using Rin’s catchphrase, Suyu reached out and shooed away Crimson Moon.
Just hearing Crimson Moon’s parting thoughts, Suyu felt a surge of anger, wishing to grab her and cut off her crow wings.
"Don’t let me catch that precious pet of yours, or I’ll snatch it away and watch you cry, you wretched woman."
Suyu squinted, watching Night Demon vanish through the window, then picked up a new blanket and fidgeted with the fabric.
"Indeed, next time we meet, I will cut off her wings… Huh? What’s this…?"
Suddenly, Suyu felt something was wrong. She touched her earring and felt a sense of unease. This made Lord Demon King’s face change instantly.
She was so focused on setting a trap for Crimson Moon that she didn’t notice her junior brother’s curse reappearing!
The key point is, she didn’t expect it to happen so soon!
Last time, she suppressed it in that way, so the curse should have been calm for a long time.
Another thing is, when she left last time, she forgot to reinforce the magical mark, so the warning effect will be weakened by half.
Even so, she shouldn’t have!
Without hesitation, the reckless silly cat is still with Rin!
Oh no, I don’t know if I can make it in time!
The anxious Lord Demon King hastily opened a portal, found Rin’s location, and jumped in right away.
…
"That is…"
Betty said, clenching her fist again.
Why do I have to learn this annoying stuff from her? It’s so frustrating!
What should I do?
How about ignoring him?
That won’t work either. What if he breaks it and we miss out on a lot of fun in the future.
What’s more important is that she hasn’t finished writing her novel yet, and she hasn’t been able to prove herself to Rin.
Betty’s feelings were very complicated, but she still acted like a frosty little girl.
With a sudden clever thought, she realized there was a way to not let things bother her.
Even though it’s her first time using it, as a bloodline skill any succubus should know, it shouldn’t be a problem, right?
Bringing them into a dream during the exam, using the succubus’s expertise, just need a little blue ink, plus some psychological suggestion, then slip away directly.
This way, no need for hands-on teaching, also completely fine!
Because the exam environment created by succubus has the same effect as reality.
That’s it then!
Betty looked at Emilia, who seemed a bit puzzled and finally spoke.
"If you want to save him, don’t resist, follow me into his dream."
"Another… dream."
This time, even the carefree Emilia felt a bit speechless.
If it were Rin who was still sober, he might become really annoyed.
It always feels like he has a close connection to everything being tossed around and dreaming.
Of course, there is no need to doubt what Freya said, the ability to dream is a rare one.
Due to the talents of succubus, there is a difference between her mentioned dreaming ability.
Succubus can only rely on seductive dreams and manipulate them to guide, the guidance is limited to sensual themes, with little control over the dreams.
Hearing this, Emilia looked at Rin, nodded without hesitation, not afraid that the other party might take advantage of her.
"Sure."
"Then let’s begin."
Betty let out a sigh of relief, silently chanting, as the tip of her tail lit up in pink.
It felt like a warm breeze blowing through the room, instantly making people feel cozy and sleepy.
Emilia did the same, she let out a small yawn, rested her head on Rin’s shoulder, and soon fell into a deep sleep.
Then, simply using some images as hints in the dream, even if you don’t understand anything, it can still guide you.
Thinking like this, Betty closed her eyes, connected her spirit to Rin’s dream, paved the way, and before the dream plot officially started, she ran out like escaping.
With a hint of blush on her icy face, Betty hastily spread her wings and ran off in a panic.
Anyway, as long as she ran fast enough, those things wouldn’t be able to touch her soul.
Just as the fuse was lit and the puppeteer left, Suyu hurriedly rushed in.
Looking somewhat dumbfounded at the two cuddling together, the black fox felt a sourness in her heart, enough to make several jars of pickled vegetables, jealousy bubbling up like a flame.
Without hesitation, Suyu reached out and pulled Rin into her arms, observing the traces of magic flow and feeling a tangle in her head.
There are succubus, curses, succubus entering dreams, what is all this about?
However, as the intelligent Lord Demon King with a boost in intelligence from the second female lead, after a moment of confusion, she made a rough guess.
It’s probably related to dreams.
Although Suyu is called the all-powerful Demon King, she is not truly all-powerful.
At least, she cannot invade dreams.
It is estimated that there are very few mental magic users in the world with such talents.
Of course, she can’t invade dreams, but due to a lucky coincidence, a connection to the dream world is not that common.
Just don’t know why succubus would choose to bring food into dreams instead of enjoying it in reality…
Wait.
Could it be… making wedding clothes for her?!
Looking at the sleeping Emilia, the Demon King suddenly had a bright idea in his mind, his two rows of small white teeth gnashing together, feeling a bit angry.
Darn it, the foolish hero almost took advantage.
Even a mere level ten hero outshines in this aspect, then the Crimson Moon’s words might really come true.
He couldn’t afford to lose that person, nor would he ever let his junior take over here and there.
Not even in dreams, after all, this is a succubus’s dream, not much different from reality.
It seems… can only…
Suyu picked up Rin, waved her hand to open a teleportation space, and they both went in.
When it reappeared, it was already in the room at Rin’s house.
She had no choice, her own hiding place always felt a bit… embarrassing and unsettling.
Placing it in this place with sentimental meaning, at least gave some peace of mind.
But… but feeling very anxious?
Where should she start?
Oh, right, for the exam, she had to open the exam paper packet and Rin’s seal first.
Then, quickly scanning the clean, white, slightly delicate, and exciting pages.
Suyu’s first formal exam, just scanning the pages made her heart race like it was about to explode.
Previous practice exams, even with speaking exercises, were not as nerve-wracking as now.
Next, there was no need to add ink to the pen.
After all, Rin had a magic pen with infinite ink, which was now stopped and placed high in front of her.
This magic pen didn’t seem very easy to hold for writing.
And then, what should she do next?
Darn it, she couldn’t remember any of the books she had read before!
Oh no, she had skimmed through similar practice questions before without paying much attention. Although she understood some, it was still not clear.
Ah ha!
When her younger brother was not around, she would often search for books Rin had read in his home library.
She remembered seeing a few books at that time… it seemed they were related to the key points of this exam.
Yes, in an open-book exam, I will definitely not lose!
…
At this moment, Emilia was also going through a test in her dream.
Luckily, it was a chemistry and pharmacology exam that she was good at, which could completely make up for her poor grades and trailing credit points.
Plus, her crush was Rin.
In Rin’s dream, he was still conscious but struggling to control his emotions. He was currently tied up with a strange magic device in front of him, which looked like an apple with a bite taken out of it drawn on the back.
There were two little figures on the magic device that were moving, appearing to be a man and a woman in a martial arts film.
By the way, as a hero, he had some resistance to negative states like dizziness and fainting.
Even if he hadn’t reached the highest level yet, ordinary methods wouldn’t make him fall asleep.
However, this generation of heroes has a very flexible resistance limit, combined with the high level of volunteers like Betty, only then can they smoothly send her to the second exam venue.
But Emilia knew that this exam must be resolved quickly, because of her resistance, she would wake up earlier than the average person.
So, the question is, how should we start the experiment?
