Chapter 571 - Chapter 46: The Top of the Head is a Little Heavy...

Looking at the other party showing that expression of wanting to cry but forcefully holding it back again, he couldn't help but feel a sense of pleasure in teasing a little girl, but fortunately, he was a true gentleman.

"Although I must leave, I will arrange the charging socket for you."

"Socket?"

Although the technology of the Moon Capital was much stronger than that of the surface, Kaguya Houraisan, who had no knowledge of this area, was completely bewildered, not knowing what Lancer was talking about.

Lancer did not bother to explain, as explaining would be too troublesome. He simply went ahead and installed a solar panel on the roof of Kaguya Houraisan house, then buried the wires in the wall, and then embedded a flip-top socket box into the tatami...

Although Lancer had not put skill points into the artisan skill, with physical capabilities far exceeding those of normal people, he also possessed astonishing execution ability. He quickly completed all the preparations according to the instructions. At the same time, Lancer handed the charger and a detachable spare battery to the other party.

"The charger has an automatic power-off system. Charging for about 2 hours is enough for about four hours of play. Because this is solar charging, the charging efficiency is very low on rainy and cloudy days, so you need to be mindful of that..."

Lancer attitude at this moment was like talking to a child. Normally, Lancer condescending attitude would probably provoke a backlash, but at this moment, Kaguya Houraisan felt her eyes shining.

With these things, she finally had more ways to pass the boring time.

However, she was equally greedy for more, such as —————— if those annoying guys weren't here, couldn't she also play during the day? Of course, it would be best if Lancer, that guy, was also here, so someone could play games with her!

Lancer instructions were only halfway through when he suddenly froze.

'Side Quest: Kaguya-hime Worries ② ———— Completed'

'Quest Reward: 10 Affection Points'

'Current Affection: 45 (I can finally play games to my heart's content!)'

Lancer had absolutely no idea that his Quest ② would be suddenly completed. One must know that he had been agonizing over it for quite some time, as, based on his observation, 'Kaguya-hime' seemed to be developing a tendency to become a shut-in gamer. Wouldn't that mean his plan to take the other party out had been shelved?

Moreover, the biggest problem was that he couldn't suddenly cut off the other party's games, because if he really did that, his affection level would definitely drop. But now it's completed? What the heck?

Could it be that he helped the other party take the crucial step towards becoming a shut-in gamer?

For a moment, Lancer mood became extremely subtle. There was the joy of the quest being suddenly completed and the pleasant feeling of corrupting a little girl, but mixed within was a strange heart palpitation...

He understood the joy and the pleasant feeling, but what was with the heart palpitation?

But just as Lancer was struggling, Kaguya Houraisan patted the tatami beside her.

"Lancer! Do you have time now? Play the game we didn't clear last time with me."

Lancer, who originally wanted to leave immediately after installing everything, hesitated for two seconds looking at the expectant Kaguya Houraisan and nodded.

'It shouldn't be a problem if I go for just this little bit of time, right?'

——————

Lancer efficiency in dealing with the Tsuchigumo could be said to have surprised Eirin Yagokoro, but she looked down upon his method of handling it because it was far too crude. If no accidents happened, it should be able to completely purify the demonic aura here, but the premise is 'no accidents,' and unfortunately, this world has no shortage of accidents.

She didn't care about the lives and deaths of the common people on the surface, but she was afraid that Kaguya Houraisan would get involved in some strange matter, so she conveniently finished up Lancer tail, such as completely sealing the demonic power beneath the tree.

During this process, the spirits Lancer set up were completely unaware of Eirin Yagokoro's actions, which was enough to illustrate her strength.

However, while she was purifying the impure demonic power, she suddenly had an ominous premonition.

She shivered and hastily stopped her actions, instead looking around vigilantly, but she didn't find any person or object that could pose a threat to her existence.

'Did I worry too much? No, impossible. With my current strength, I wouldn't shiver for no reason. What exactly is going on?'

Feeling a little heavy-headed, she looked up carefully at the sky. It was completely clear; no problem, right?

'Could it be that that man made a move on the Princess?'

Through this period of observation, she also found this man to be very strange, actually able to ignore the charm of her adorable disciple, which tentatively put her at ease, but ——————

'What if that guy is faking it? Yes! That's right! It must be like this! No one in this world can ignore Kaguya charm!'

Undoubtedly, Eirin Yagokoro is a doting guardian of her disciple, or rather, Kaguya. Otherwise, as the Sage of the Moon, the Shishō of all of Tsukuyomi's children, and someone with transcendent status in the Moon Capital, it would be impossible for her to completely disregard the order of the Moon Capital's lord, Tsukuyomi, secretly come to the surface, and personally guard Kaguya.

She ignored the half-finished purification ritual and rushed towards the Bamboo Mountain, and when she arrived at the bamboo forest, her eyes widened because she was seeing Kaguya Houraisan 'leaning' her head on that man's shoulder.

'!!!'

Just as she was about to reveal herself and kill the scoundrel who dared to lay a hand on her disciple ——————

"Lancer, how do I beat this BOSS? Shouldn't I roll first, use the invincibility frame, then stand up, draw my sword, and parry?"

——————

On the other side, Lancer, who was playing a game online with Kaguya Houraisan, suddenly felt a killing intent coming from behind. He instinctively turned around but saw nothing, and just at that moment, he felt someone tugging at his sleeve.

"Sorry, sorry, I was distracted. What's wrong?"

"I just asked you if this is how you beat this BOSS? By the way, Lancer, what's wrong with you?"

Looking at the exquisite face that had somehow moved right in front of him, Lancer secretly turned his head away.

"Nothing, I just felt a killing intent."

Kaguya Houraisan, whose mind was completely focused on clearing the level at this moment, didn't notice that their handheld consoles were almost touching, and their positions had unconsciously moved closer together due to her shifting. Upon hearing Lancer words, she tilted her head adorably.

"Killing intent? I didn't feel anything? By the way, Lancer! Don't worry about those little things! Keep playing with me!"

And Lancer, hearing Kaguya Houraisan words, carefully checked again, confirming that there was really no problem, and continued his gaming journey with the other party.

The two of them did not notice that the figure standing in the shadows outside the window was muttering to herself ——————

'They are just playing a game, just playing a game. Kaguya will never see this man again after returning to the Moon...'
