Chapter 154: You Should Read Less Messy Books in the Future
After Lolth gave these instructions, Tina, who had some basic administrative skills, was already taking notes while drafting two new announcement documents.
However, Tina did not immediately go to the town, the Western New District, or the Southern New District to post the announcements.
She stood still, watching Lolth, hesitant and wanting to say something but holding back.
"Mistress Lolth… I have one thing that is unrelated to Hillenbrand… but it might be a bit bold to say it…"
Tina looked a bit shy and troubled.
This sight caught Lolth’s eye and made her quite curious.
Recently, Tina has rarely shown this side of herself.
She has always been one of Hillenbrand’s reliable leaders and professional managers—although she doesn’t hold an official position yet, the residents kindly call her the acting lord or the deputy lord.
This is already a great compliment and recognition for Tina.
"Everyone knows I am Lolth’s trusted assistant and helper!"
In fact, she and Maider are much more reliable and capable than the nominal mayor and lord, Old Harper and Lolth!
Although many of Tina’s achievements were credited to Lolth because of Tina’s constant promotion and Lolth’s early image in everyone’s minds.
"Everything is thanks to Lord Lolth’s great leadership!"—Of course, this is exactly the scene Tina hopes to see.
However, most of the common people in Hillenbrand Town are much more familiar with the acting lord, Her Excellency Tina. She is a good leader who works actively on the front lines of two new development areas, personally guiding the work, eating in the same cafeteria as the people, and living on the construction site. She is also a great mentor, using magic to care for crops and livestock and patiently training every villager who knows nothing about magical tools and semi-automated facilities.
Almost no one can remember that this person was once a pampered Elf Princess!
Even the elven captives are amazed by the changes in Her Highness the Princess.
She used to be innocent and pure, but now she doesn’t seem to be fallen…
Although she often says strange things and calls a succubus her master, she truly manages this small town very well!
After her return, Lolth also noticed Tina’s changes and transformations, sensing that this elf seems to have become strangely more motivated.
Even though she didn’t know why, Lolth chose to let this elf keep playing, following her principle of not asking too much about something that seems to be a good thing.
But today, Tina suddenly became tangled up again!
"What’s wrong? Just say what it is, there’s nothing too much or too little."
Driven by curiosity and concern for Tina, Lolth looked at the fairy and asked.
"It’s nothing, just… well, recently Isabella seems to be a bit disrespectful to you, Lolth. Although she has always been disrespectful, she has become even more so since she came back. But lately… lately, she even dares to call you by your name! And she honestly critiques your cooking… I even saw her give you something she had bitten! This is just too much!"
Tina said with a bit of frustration and dissatisfaction.
Although at first she hesitated, fearing she might overstep, as she continued, Tina became more and more upset and passionate, almost accusing.
However, it somehow sounded a bit bitter!
Lolth, not picking up on Tina’s jealousy, explained in a very casual manner.
"Ah… I allowed her to call me that; it’s okay."
"I certainly understand that you, Lolth, allowed it," Tina said eagerly, "but she actually took advantage of your kindness…"
"Alright, alright, don’t get stuck on this; honestly, I quite like it," Lolth said, waving her hand, "we both think it’s nice."
"Are you and Isabella… the two of you?"
Hearing this, Tina looked as if she had been struck by lightning, repeating the question again.
"Yes, that’s right," Lolth nodded, completely unaware of Tina’s discomfort, "so it’s all right."
"I understand…"
Tina deflated like a pufferfish that felt safe again, letting her head droop as she walked towards the kitchen door.
"Well then, Master Lolth, I will go prepare for the safety team."
She said this a bit sadly.
Lolth finally noticed that Tina seemed to be feeling a bit down and said, "Ah, actually you can just call me Lolth or Lolthlinda, and if that’s not okay, you can call me by my middle name Farte…"
As she said this, Tina responded with a sigh.
"I can’t do something so rude, no matter what…"
Tina said this while holding the papers and walking towards the door.
Lolth looked at Tina’s back and felt a strange sensation that she hadn’t felt in a long time.
"Indeed, this fairy is really hard to understand!"
Lolth couldn’t help but sigh.
Meanwhile, Kanor, who was testing new juice ratios and recipes, wore a strange expression.
"Master Lolth, is there something you’re not good at?"
In response to Kanor’s question, Lolth shrugged.
"Of course… I am not someone who knows everything—there’s no such person in the world, Kanor," she said as she opened her hands, "you see, I am not good at dealing with relationships."
Kanor wanted to say something, but in the end, she just nodded.
A look of deep thought showed on her face, much beyond that of an eight-year-old girl.
"So Master Lolth, do you prefer Her Excellency Tina or Her Excellency Isabella?"
Before Lolth could answer, Kanor added a condition.
"I mean the kind of liking that is for marriage or romance, not the liking between friends or mere admiration."
When Lolth heard this, she looked at Kanor, who was sitting in front of the fruit and vegetable juicer, staring at the spinning, mixing, and gradually broken fruit and thick fruit pulp, with a hint of surprise on her face.
"Kanor, you really are quite mature for your age…"
Then, she realized something was wrong with the question.
"Wait—why is it ‘prefer’, don’t base the question on my liking for both of them," Lolth said helplessly, "we are all girls…"
"I read in a book that Superoperators have many ways to reproduce with the same gender. There are many same-gender couples among human nobles and elves, and succubi can reproduce with the same gender without any outside help," Kanor became confused. "And besides, Lady Lolth doesn’t like men, right?"
Lolth was left speechless by the question and had to pull out her secret weapon.
"You should read fewer silly books in the future!"
