In the small school grove, a gentle breeze brought a touch of coolness.
At this moment, two girls were sitting on a wooden bench, chatting.
"Asagi-nee, I've been meaning to ask since this morning, why are you wearing a hat?"
Akatsuki Nagisa looked at Aiba Asagi, who was wearing a hat, and asked curiously.
After all, wearing a hat first thing in the morning would make anyone curious.
It's like your good friend, who was fine yesterday, but comes to school the next day wearing a hat; anyone would want to take that hat off and see why.
Aiba Asagi didn't want to answer Akatsuki Nagisa's question.
Last night, she secretly monitored Abel, and then he smiled at the camera, and immediately, her head was flicked as if from thin air, and now there was a large bump on her head.
A small area was bruised.
It looked absolutely hideous now.
And that bastard AI, moguwai, even connected to her phone and took pictures of her 'horn-like' appearance, saving them.
This lady, this lady will definitely infect moguwai with a virus tonight!
Facing Akatsuki Nagisa's curiosity, Aiba Asagi didn't want to answer.
Aiba Asagi said "seriously," "Ahem, I didn't wash my hair yesterday, and it looks a bit messy."
"Really?"
Akatsuki Nagisa said, disbelievingly, then leaned closer.
Seeing Akatsuki Nagisa leaning in, Aiba Asagi quickly dodged backward.
"What do you want, Nagisa-chan?"
"Come on, Asagi-nee, let me see."
Saying this, Akatsuki Nagisa pounced towards Aiba Asagi.
The two wrestled together.
At this moment, Abel, carrying drinks, watched the two playing around and was silent for a while.
He looked up at the sky.
The lilies in his hometown were blooming.
Abel watched this scene with the discerning eye of an art connoisseur, then walked towards the two.
"What are you two students doing?"
Hearing the voice, Akatsuki Nagisa and Aiba Asagi quickly stood up and tidied their clothes.
"No... nothing."
Aiba Asagi said somewhat guiltily, a blush rising on her face.
He must have seen it, he definitely saw it.
Akatsuki Nagisa next to her also nodded, her eyes, which had been on the hat, now focused on Abel.
For some reason, Abel gave off a very comfortable feeling.
Abel handed a bottle of iced orange juice to Aiba Asagi, then placed a bottle of iced milk on Akatsuki Nagisa's head.
A cold chill came from the top of her head, and Akatsuki Nagisa quickly took it down.
Looking at her drink, the little girl was a bit displeased.
"Why is mine milk?"
"Of course, children should drink milk, be good, it's for growing."
Abel said with a smile in response to her question.
Akatsuki Nagisa's small face flushed, and at the same time, she felt a warmth inside; Abel in front of her felt like an older brother.
Seeing Akatsuki Nagisa's flushed face, Abel, with a natural familiarity, raised his hand and placed it on her head.
Feeling the warmth on her head, the girl wanted to nuzzle into it, but quickly came to her senses and shook her head rapidly.
"What are you doing?"
"You seem quite energetic, I thought you were sick."
Aiba Asagi, drinking her orange juice, watched this scene with a smile; although they hadn't formally met, this feeling was quite nice.
But the next second.
"If you're fine, then I'll borrow Aiba-san for a bit."
Saying this, Abel pulled Aiba Asagi and left.
"Eh!?"
Aiba Asagi was stunned, wanting to ask something, but still followed along.
She tried to pull away but found his grip very strong.
Looking at Abel, who was pulling her, Aiba Asagi felt that what she had done yesterday had been exposed.
It's over~
Aiba Asagi felt a bit mournful inside, yet also a little expectant.
Akatsuki Nagisa watched from behind, a hint of loss flashing in her eyes, muttering softly: "He just took Asagi-nee away, could it be... are they dating?"
Thinking this, Akatsuki Nagisa's eyes lit up.
Does this mean she has an older brother again?
A brother-in-law is also an older brother, right?
At this moment, Abel led Aiba Asagi to a quiet corner.
Aiba Asagi was a little scared now.
This secluded place... could he be planning to do *that* kind of thing to her?
Should she or shouldn't she?
Aiba Asagi fell into thought.
Looking at the flushed Aiba Asagi, Abel poked her forehead.
A jolt of pain instantly shot through her.
Aiba Asagi clutched her head and complained, "Ouch, what are you doing!!"
"Nothing."
Abel said with a smile, then leaned closer and added, "Just checking who the Electronic Empress was, who was monitoring me last night."
At these words.
Aiba Asagi's face turned slightly pale.
It's truly over, her secret was out.
"Um... I didn't mean to."
Aiba Asagi said softly.
"Of course I know you didn't mean to, otherwise it wouldn't have been just a flick on the head last night."
Abel said with a smile.
Aiba Asagi, hearing Abel's words, was slightly stunned.
So... the bump on her head was caused by Abel!!
Aiba Asagi got angry for a moment, well... she didn't really get angry; she didn't dare to speak or show anger now, acting like a good child.
"Then... how do you plan to deal with me?"
Aiba Asagi lowered her head, her voice as faint as a mosquito's buzz, after all, the person in front of her was the King.
Abel looked at her in this state, the corners of his mouth curving slightly, then he said jokingly, "How about serving the King tonight?"
Aiba Asagi suddenly looked up, her eyes wide, her face full of disbelief, her cheeks instantly turning red like a ripe apple.
"You... what did you say?" she stammered, her voice trembling slightly.
Abel looked at her flustered expression and couldn't help but laugh: "Just kidding, you look so scared."
Aiba Asagi, hearing Abel say he was just teasing her, was both embarrassed and annoyed, her earlobes red, but she dared not act out.
At the same time, there was also a tiny bit of disappointment.
Abel nodded with satisfaction, then... it was time to get down to business.
But before that.
"Alright, take off your hat, I'll heal you."
Aiba Asagi hesitated, then slowly raised her hands and took off her hat.
She kept her head down, not daring to look into Abel's eyes.
Abel looked at the large purplish bump on her head and smiled, making Aiba Asagi's face turn red again.
Abel extended his finger, the power of the Horse Talisman gathered, emitting small green lights, and gently touched the bump on Aiba Asagi's forehead.
With a flash of light, the large bump vanished without a trace.
"Alright, all done."
Abel said, retracting his hand.
Aiba Asagi touched her head, surprised to find that it really didn't hurt anymore, and looked up at Abel, her eyes full of gratitude.
"Thank you..." she whispered.
"If you're grateful, show some practical action."
Abel teased.
"King!"
Aiba Asagi said, her face flushed, she always felt that the King in front of her was very improper.
"Alright, let's talk business."
"I need you to help me organize a route map to the Keystone Gate, after all, as Itogami Island's Electronic Empress, I'm sure you can help."
Listening to Abel's words, Aiba Asagi was slightly stunned, feeling like her entire background had been laid bare by him.
But... isn't this very interesting?
Aiba Asagi selectively ignored the fact that Abel in front of her was the King.
"No problem, leave it to me!"
