Chapter 164 Hey… Killing your own companions isn't very nice, is it…

"Aiya~ The more the merrier~ Host, you should be grateful~"

"Come on, you're just like me, how can you say I'm not grateful?"

"Hehe~"

"Sigh... you guys sleep, I'll keep watch tonight." Ying rubbed Paimon's head, placed her beside Lumine, and then got up to sit by the bed.

"Huh? Host, aren't you sleeping?"

"Yes, you all sleep. Let me ponder life for a while~"

"Stop it, Host, this doesn't fit your persona."

"E

"E

"What? You can use the Fatui Harbinger to deceive me, but I can't investigate you?"

"Hm?! How did you know I was there... Did those two girls tell you?"

"Heh, who told me is not important. What's important is why you're staying in Liyue instead of heading to Inazuma. What are you plotting..."

"Hmph... if you want to know then..."

Wait... perhaps I can use him...

"Oh? Do you want to fight? If so, I'd be happy to~ (^_^)"

"No, no, no. Since you want to know, I'll tell you~"

"Hm? Tell me then..."

What is this guy plotting...

"Hehehe... Me? I just hope Liyue's waters get even murkier. That's all~"

"Murkier? If you mess up the Tsaritsa's plan, you might turn into meat paste."

"Don't worry, I'll control the strength. As a token of my sincerity, let me tell you where you're going next..."

"Where? Where are you going?"

"That place is... Liyue's prison..."

Time moved to the next day...

"Hey~ You three, hurry up and eat. I've already bought breakfast~"

Ying placed the breakfast on a nearby cabinet, walked to the bedside, and gently patted their faces to wake them up.

"Eat?!" Upon hearing the enticing words, Paimon's eyes shot open, and she quickly flew to the cabinet, grabbed a bun, and started eating.

"Ah, this... as expected of you..."

"Haa~ Host, why don't you feed me? I'm too lazy to move... ( ̄﹏ ̄)" Paimon said slowly, rubbing her sleepy eyes.

"Go away~ You're not sick ( ̄へ ̄)"

"Hahaha... So you mean I can be fed by you?" Lumine chuckled, sat up, and looked at Ying with a smile.

"Mhm~ Of course, it's my honor to feed you, sister~" Ying quickly sat by the bed, picked up a bun, and offered it to Lumine's mouth.

"Hm? Why do you seem so much more obedient today?"

"Cough cough~ No, I've always loved you, sister, you know..."

(Phew... Finally, I have a reason to keep my mouth shut for a few days. I absolutely cannot let her get any leverage against me while she's injured (* ̄з ̄))

"Mhm... You seem a bit suspicious, but whatever. Ah~ Mmm..." Lumine dismissed the inner monologue and happily ate the bun Ying personally fed her.
