Chapter 501: Passing the Test, Navia Enters the Aeon Space
"Th... there are still True Sting present, and such small True Sting at that!"
"I thought we had completely eliminated these disgusting things earlier!"
Clorinde frowned, her eyes fixed on the faintly visible small True Sting on Navia's shoulder.
"Could it be that we haven't completely cleared the True Sting eggs inside the Astral Express?"
"There aren't any True Sting in our rooms, are there?"
Paimon's bright eyes widened to their largest,
As if imagining her room being covered in insects.
"Maybe, perhaps after you go to sleep, Paimon."
"A True Sting will appear and swallow you, this emergency food, in one bite."
Luo Feng said with a smile.
"Ah!" Paimon exclaimed, quickly hiding behind Traveler. "Traveler, you must protect me."
"Luo Feng is joking with you, can't you tell?"
Traveler shook her head helplessly and said to Luo Feng:
"Luo Feng, this True Sting shouldn't be simply one of those True Sting that were born from the eggs earlier."
"Being able to be invisible and constantly in a tiny state, it shouldn't be a simple True Sting."
Hearing this, before Luo Feng could speak, Argenti spoke first:
"When I killed those True Stings before, I read some information from their pheromones."
"The meaning is equivalent to 'Even if we kill them, there is no way to deal with their overlord'."
"I originally thought 'overlord' referred to that Huge True Sting."
"But now it seems, perhaps it refers to the one on Navia."
"That little bug is the overlord!"
Paimon's eyes widened, "It's clearly so small!"
"In this world, some tiny things are often more dangerous."
The Knave looked at Luo Feng and said:
"Right, Luo Feng!"
Luo Feng nodded, confirming:
"Miss Arlecchino is right, some small things are indeed more dangerous than many big things."
"However, the passengers from Fontaine don't need to worry too much."
"Although this little True Sting is dangerous, it is indeed the overlord of the True Stings."
"But its level of harm is far from reaching a dangerous state."
After Luo Feng finished speaking, he patted Clorinde on the shoulder again.
He said this specifically for Clorinde to hear.Although she was acting quite calm at the moment.
But Luo Feng's hands on her shoulder,could clearly feel her body trembling slightly.
Obviously, her inner state was not as calm as she appeared.
"Also, this bug was indeed not born from the eggs that fell into the Astral Express."
"It existed from the beginning and came to the Astral Express with Welt."
Luo Feng said, looking in Welt's direction.
"Me?"Welt pointed to himself in surprise.
"That's right, when Navia left the restaurant earlier."
"That bug only flew from your collar onto Navia's body."
Luo Feng said.
"What? That guy actually hid on me for so long?"
Welt stood up in horror and carefully checked every part of his body.
He was afraid that another True Sting that could cause influence might appear on him at any time.
Having witnessed some of Luo Feng's abilities,
Welt had no doubt about what Luo Feng said.
"What a terrifying ability to conceal."
"I actually didn't notice its presence."
Argenti sighed with emotion, looked at Luo Feng somewhat strangely, and said:
" Luo Feng, since you noticed its existence, why didn't you stop it from flying onto Navia?"
Luo Feng smiled slightly and said
"Just as you planned to test Navia, I also wanted to test her."
Luo Feng briefly informed Argenti of his purpose in bringing the passengers to the Universe, causing Argenti to sigh with emotion again.
" Luo Feng, please at least tell me what is happening to Navia now?"
Clorinde looked up at Luo Feng sincerely.
Luo Feng: "Hallucination."
"Hallucination?" Clorinde narrowed her eyes."
That's right!" Luo Feng nodded slightly and said:
"When the True Sting's wings flap, they will scatter some wing powder that can cause hallucinations after being inhaled."
"When you were fighting the True Stings earlier, you must have experienced moments of mental disorientation."
Hearing this, Clorinde, The Knave, Sigewinne, and others all nodded in agreement.
"That's proof. The reason you didn't actually have hallucinations at that time was, firstly, because the amount you inhaled was not enough."
"Secondly, Argenti killed them quickly enough that they didn't have time to secrete enough wing powder to cause you to hallucinate."
After listening to Luo Feng's explanation, everyone present, including the Tivat People watching through Paimon's camera, finally understood the general situation.
[Kinich: As the God of Fire said, Navia is indeed in a state of hallucination.]
[Capitano: It seems Natlan's God of Fire is not only skilled in combat but also possesses considerable wisdom.]
[Mavuika: I can only think of this much. Rather than calling it wisdom, it's more like intuition.At least I never thought that True Stings could produce hallucinogenic wing powder when they flap their wings.]
[Dr.: Interesting, truly interesting. The True Stings of 'The Propagation' actually have such a characteristic.]
[La Signora: It's interesting, but it has nothing to do with you. You have no chance to go to the Universe to capture True Stings.]
[Dr.: That's not necessarily true. Maybe one day in the future I'll get a ticket again.]
[La Signora: I don't think your luck is that good.]
[Chiori: A hallucination, huh? I wonder what kind of hallucination Navia is experiencing now.Hmm? Did she say the words "Father" earlier, and "Clorinde"?]
[Neuvillette: Navia's Father, Callas... Did the True Sting's wing powder make Navia recall that past case?]
[Melus: Could it be the duel between Mister Callas and Clorinde?!]
[Marcel: It's actually this matter?!]
For some reason, Marcel, who claimed to be Navia's uncle but was actually responsible for Callas's death, felt a hint of unease in his heart.
.........
Astral Express.
Navia's room.
"No, Father!"
Under the influence of the True Sting, Navia once again witnessed Clorinde piercing Father Callas's chest with the sharp blade in her hand.
In a surge of emotion, she directly summoned her weapon and rushed towards Clorinde.
This time, there was no Melus and Silver blocking her, no Fontaine Gardes surrounding the dueling arena.Navia rushed towards Clorinde's front unimpeded.
"You've come?"
"Clorinde" turned slightly sideways, smiling as she looked at Navia.
As if piercing Callas's chest with a sword was nothing more than a trivial matter.
"You... you're actually smiling?"
Navia looked at the "Clorinde" in front of her in disbelief, feeling that she was so unfamiliar.
"Why shouldn't I smile? I successfully completed my job, didn't I?"
"Clorinde" continued to smile, pulling the sharp blade out of "Callas's" chest.
"Callas," who had lost support, instantly fell towards the ground.
Seeing this, Navia quickly rushed to "Callas's" side and helped him up.
"Father, are... are you alright?"
Navia asked tremblingly, but "Callas" did not give her any response.
This scene made Navia couldn't help but tighten her grip on the weapon in her hand again, looking hatefully at the "Clorinde" who was standing perfectly straight.
"Are you angry? Then make your move."
"Clorinde" said with a smile.
"Make a move?" Navia looked at the weapon in her hand.
"That's right, I killed the Father you loved most."
"Don't you want to avenge your Father?"
"Come on, I'm right here now."
"You just need to lift your hand slightly, and you can kill me."
"Clorinde" dropped the sharp blade in her hand, opened her arms, and stood calmly before Navia.
Navia stared blankly at the "Clorinde" before her.
She inexplicably felt that something was wrong, but couldn't quite articulate it.
"Don't dare to make a move, or are you hoping to kill me in a duel?"
"Just like I killed your Father in a duel?"
"Clorinde" smiled, then suddenly picked up the sharp sword in her hand and thrust it towards Navia.
Navia quickly helped "Callas" take a large step back.
However, soon, "Clorinde's" sword was already close to her.
Left with no choice, Navia could only raise the weapon in her hand to block and counterattack.After a period of fighting, "Clorinde's" offensive gradually weakened.
Navia seized an opportunity to knock the sharp blade from her hand.
"You won, now you can kill me."
"Clorinde" closed her eyes, looking ready to accept death calmly.This caused Navia's brow to furrow even tighter.
Asking herself honestly, did she truly have the right or the need to kill Clorinde?
Dueling Clorinde, or even being killed by Clorinde, was clearly her Father Callas's own choice.
Navia knew very well that if Callas hadn't forced Clorinde to kill him, Clorinde wouldn't have made a move.
Just as Navia was feeling confused, she suddenly felt her ankle being grabbed.
"Father?"Navia turned around and saw that her Father Callas, who had previously died, had actually reopened his eyes.
He stretched out his right hand, streaming bloody tears, and grabbed Navia's ankle.
"Make a move, Navia!"
"Kill that woman and avenge me!""Callas" said to Navia in a voice filled with resentment.
"But, but..."Navia pursed her lips, feeling a little flustered.
"What are you still hesitating for? You have clearly defeated her."
"Could it be that you actually don't care about whether I live or die?"
"Callas" questioned.
"No, I've always cared about you."Facing "Father's" denial, Navia quickly shook her head.
"Then why haven't you made a move yet?"
"Callas" continued to be aggressive, and even miraculously stood up.
He used his hand to grip Navia's hand holding the weapon, extending it towards "Clorinde's" neck.
The sharp edge cut across "Clorinde's" skin, leaving a crimson bloodstain.If the edge moved just one step further, it would leave a hole in "Clorinde's" neck.
"Come on, make a move."
"Just one step further."
"Callas's" voice echoed in Navia's ears, constantly pushing her.
"Yes, kill me. You must really want to do this, right."
"Clorinde" said.
"No, something's wrong."
Seeing the skin on "Clorinde's" neck become increasingly crimson, a sliver of clarity flashed through Navia's muddled mind.
She felt that if she truly made a move against the "Navia" before her, she would lose something very important.
"What's wrong? You've always wanted to kill me, right."
"Clorinde" said with a smile.
"No! I haven't." Navia shook her head.
"You clearly hate me, don't you?"
"Clorinde" enticed.
"Or could it be that you don't actually love me?"
"Callas's" voice had a hint of anger in it.T
his was an emotion Navia had never felt from her Father before, making her feel quite unfamiliar.
Both "Callas" and "Clorinde" seemed to be urging Navia to make a move.
No!
Something is definitely wrong!Navia gritted her teeth and dodged to the side, moving slightly away from "Clorinde" and "Callas."
"Why are you dodging? Don't you hate me?"
"Clorinde" frowned.
Hate?
Memories of her childhood with Clorinde flashed through Navia's mind, as did Clorinde's hesitation during the duel with her Father Callas.
Clorinde actually didn't want to kill Father Callas, so do I really need to hate Clorinde?
"Why are you avoiding it? Don't you want to avenge me?"
"Callas" angrily rebuked.Revenge?
But Father Callas had clearly almost begged Clorinde to kill him.
If that's the case, why would Father still need someone else to avenge him?
Everything is... a fantasy in my mind?
That's right! Everything before me is just an illusion!
Navia's eyes focused, and she looked firmly at the "Callas" and "Clorinde" before her.
"Good eyes, are you finally going to make a move against me?"
"Clorinde" said with a mocking smile.
"Finally have the courage to avenge me?"
"Callas's" tone was still cold."I will avenge you, Father."
"But I will only avenge you against your true enemy."
Navia said solemnly.Without waiting for "Callas" to respond, Navia looked at "Clorinde" again.
"And you are not my enemy, Clorinde."
"I'm sorry for having been distant for so long."
"I just had some difficulty accepting the fact that Father died by your hand."
"But deep down, I've always known.""
Father died by your hand because of his own choice, that wasn't your choice."
After Navia finished speaking, she took a step forward and embraced "Clorinde."
"I've been truly sorry all this time, Clorinde."
As Navia's voice fell, the stone that had been hanging in her heart also dropped.
At the same time, a faint, warm light enveloped Navia.
Making Navia close her eyes unconsciously.
When she opened her eyes again, the original dueling arena was gone,Replaced by a somewhat familiar starry sky—the Universe where one can visit the Aeon!
Unlike the confusion in Navia's eyes, somewhere behind Navia, Luo Feng had a smile on his face.
"It finally happened, finally someone is able to see the Aeon."
Luo Feng's mouth curled up, and he muttered softly.
.........
Chapter 502: Paying Homage to the Beauty Aeon, Navia is Confused
The vast Universe, with countless stars dotting the starry sky
.Navia stood above the Void, but she did not feel weightless.Instead, she had a sense of solid ground under her feet.
As if something in the Void had turned into a floor supporting her.
Navia looked around somewhat blankly. When she saw the huge and extremely familiar beam of light ahead,
Her spirit, which had been affected by the "Overlord" True Sting, suddenly recovered.
"Is this the mental Universe space where one can pay homage to the Aeon?"
"Has someone successfully triggered Luo Feng's Blessing?
"Navia looked around but found no one else present.In other words.
..
"Is it... me? I triggered Lord Luo Feng's Blessing?"
"But why... Wait, could it be related to what I encountered earlier?"
Navia furrowed her brows slightly and raised her hand to her forehead.
After arriving in this space, Navia felt much clearer in her head.
At the same time, she realized how abnormal the scene she had seen earlier was.
"How could Clorinde do such a thing? How could she let me kill her?"
"And Father, it's even more impossible for him to appear and ask me to kill Clorinde with the weapon in my hand."
Navia muttered to herself, feeling even stranger about why she had seen such a scene.
She was just going back to her room to change clothes; there shouldn't have been any situation that would cause her to encounter such an environment.
"Could it be Argenti? Has he already begun his test for me?"
Navia murmured to herself, then shook her head, turning her gaze towards the enormous beam of light that seemed like it could transform into a Aeon at any moment.
"When I go back, I'll ask Luo Feng."
"What's important now is this place."
Navia said excitedly.
......
"I still find it hard to believe how Navia triggered the condition to see a Aeon."
"She was clearly still in an illusion just now. Of course, it's not that I don't want her to see a Aeon and obtain a Path."
"I'm just a little curious."
Paimon looked at Luo Feng beside her curiously and said.
As she finished speaking, The Knave, Collei, Sigewinne, and others, especially Clorinde, whose name Navia had called out multiple times earlier, all turned their gaze towards Luo Feng.
"Hehe, do you still remember the condition for stepping onto a Path, Paimon?"
"When a person intentionally or unintentionally practices the concept of a certain Path."
"They may step onto that Path and become a fellow traveler of the Aeon who presides over that Path."
"Let alone being in an illusion, even just within one's own state of mind, it is possible to gain The Power of Destiny by practicing something."
"Moreover, some may directly trigger a glimpse from a Aeon."
Luo Feng said.
"That's true, but I still find it a bit incredible."
"I wonder what Path Navia will obtain because of what happened earlier."
Paimon exclaimed.The Knave rested her chin on her hand and said:
"I have heard about Miss Navia's matters, combined with what she said earlier in the illusion."
"Presumably, she saw the duel between Miss Clorinde and Navia's Father, Callas, back then."
"Furthermore, Clorinde and Callas in the illusion even incited Navia to kill Clorinde."
"And in the end, what is most likely to make Navia step onto a Path is that Miss Navia forgave Miss Clorinde."
After speaking, The Knave looked at the somewhat silent Clorinde
."Ah, right, I almost forgot about that."
Paimon looked at Clorinde and opened her mouth, but in the end, she couldn't muster the courage to ask Clorinde about the specifics of the Callas incident.
Although she didn't know the specific details, she could sense that this was not something that could be casually asked about.
The complexity of it might only be understood by those involved.
On the contrary, Clorinde seemed to sense the confusion of Paimon, Collei, Lumine, and other non-Fontaine individuals, and honestly explained the situation regarding her duel with Callas.
"Did Mr. Callas actually seek death voluntarily? He must have had his reasons."
Collei pursed her lips and said somewhat sadly.
"Unfortunately, I still don't know why Callas was so insistent on seeking death back then."
Clorinde's mood became even more complex.
"Anyway, it's commendable that Navia can obtain a Path."
"Being able to face her inner self calmly within the environment and ultimately forgave Clorinde."
"If I'm not mistaken, the Aeon who is about to appear is the goddess of "Beauty"."
The Knave said.
As her words fell, the huge beam of light in the distance suddenly emitted an extremely bright radiance.
The light gradually changed, finally presenting a silhouette with a female figure.
Although it was a silhouette, as soon as it appeared, it gave people a feeling of ultimate beauty.
"As expected, it's "Beauty"."
Luo Feng exclaimed.
Although he had never seen Pure Beauty Goddess Idrila, because of the System, as soon as the huge illusory figure appeared before him, he had already received an accurate prompt.
"So, did Navia really obtain the Path of Beauty?"
Clorinde murmured."If you're curious, go and confirm it yourself later."
"This space is about to collapse."
Luo Feng finished speaking and looked up at the silhouette of the Beauty goddess.
At this moment, this silhouette was also watching him.
It's just a pity that the Beauty goddess is currently a silhouette, so Luo Feng couldn't discern anything from her.
Could it be that she wants me to help, like those Extraterrestrial Observers, collect the Beauty mirror fragments and restore them?
If that's the case, Pure Beauty Goddess Idrila can return?
Speaking of which, don't Aeons have no gender? Why did Argenti determine that the Beauty Aeon is a goddess?
While Luo Feng was complaining in his heart, cracks appeared in the surrounding space, eventually turning into shattered mirror fragments.Everyone's consciousness also returned to their original location..
........
[Ding! Detected that passenger Navia has successfully stepped onto the Path of Beauty. The Host is specially rewarded with one template gacha chance.]
A good start!Luo Feng's mouth curled up, and he thought to himself.
"Everyone, we... Hmm? What are you all doing?"
Argenti looked at Collei, The Knave, Lumine, and the others who suddenly stood up one after another, and said somewhat confusedly.
"This matter is almost over; we should go and see Navia."
Luo Feng smiled at Argenti, closed the monitoring screen, and patted Clorinde, who was in her seat.
After his hand left Clorinde's shoulder, she immediately stood up and followed Luo Feng's steps towards the restaurant entrance.
Furina, The Knave, Collei, Sigewinne, and others naturally followed closely behind.
Although Argenti was somewhat puzzled, he still followed the group's steps.
[Charlotte: Huh? What's going on all of a sudden? Why is everyone suddenly going to Navia's place?]
[Arataki Itto: I don't know. Luo Feng turned off the surveillance screen for Navia's side, so we can't see what's happening there anymore.]
[Yae Miko: It was just at a crucial moment!]
[Mona: Yeah, we already saw Navia make a decision in the illusion.]
[Alice: Since Navia has made her decision, perhaps her matter has concluded.]
[Barbeloth: Are you saying Navia has obtained The Power of Destiny?]
[Alice: Considering Hu Tao's experience walking the Path of Equilibrium on the Xianzhou, it's not impossible!]
[Hu Tao: That's true. Maybe in the parts we didn't see, Luo Feng, Navia, and the others have already reached the space where they can meet the Aeon, which is why they were able to act in sync just now and head towards Navia's room.]
[Marcel: This... is this really possible?!]
[Silver: Please, I really hope it's true.]
Everyone, whether worried or anticipating, followed Paimon's perspective and Luo Feng's steps.
When everyone arrived at Navia's location, she was staring blankly at the small True Sting held firmly in her hand.
"Was it you that made me hallucinate earlier?"
Navia narrowed her beautiful eyes and murmured.
After obtaining The Power of the Beauty Path from the Aeon and returning to the Astral Express.
Navia immediately felt something else trying to continue influencing her will.
Relying on instinct, Navia raised her hand to her shoulder and grabbed the small True Sting.
The small True Sting, suddenly caught, seemed as if it hadn't reacted yet.
However, after Navia finished speaking, it immediately flapped its wings rapidly, broke free from Navia's grip with a strange power, and flew towards the door.
However, freedom was not what awaited it at the door, but a larger, more powerful hand.
"Luo Feng, why are you here?"
Navia glanced at the owner of the large hand in surprise, then looked at Clorinde, Furina, and the others behind Luo Feng.
"You guys are here too!"
Navia opened her mouth in surprise, but quickly relaxed again.
Although she hadn't truly been to the space where one could pay respects to the Aeon before obtaining the power of Beauty.
But she had heard roughly about the experience from those who had gone before.
Since she had gone to the space where one could pay respects to the Aeon, then Luo Feng and the other passengers must have also reached the spiritual Universe space and witnessed the scene of her meeting with the illusory form of Pure Beauty Goddess Idrila.
"Fortunately, everyone didn't see what I did in the illusion."
Navia murmured in a low voice.Although her voice was almost inaudible, it still didn't escape Luo Feng's ears.
After she handed the small True Sting to Cocolia, she suddenly showed a surprised expression towards Navia."
Navia, what have you done!"
"Wh- what's wrong, Luo Feng?"
Navia was startled by Luo Feng's voice and asked, somewhat at a loss.
"Navia, even if you're dissatisfied with the room's environment, there's no need to cause such extensive destruction here."
"While I don't mind you damaging the things you brought yourself."
"But there's no need to damage the things that were originally in the room, right?"
"There are quite a few rare items here that I've collected from various parts of the Universe."
"For example, this chair I got from Belobog is an item with great commemorative value."
Luo Feng stepped past Navia and came to the scratch where a corner was missing because Navia, while in the illusion, had struck it.
"Oh no!"
Navia finally realized at this moment that the actions she took in the illusion were also reflected in the real world.
The stool Luo Feng was touching, and the furniture throughout the room with signs of damage, were proof.
"I, I'm sorry, Luo Feng."
"I... I didn't mean to."
"It was that bug, it made me hallucinate!"
Navia pointed to the small True Sting held tightly in Cocolia's hand.
Although the small True Sting wanted to flap its wings and release the wing dust that causes hallucinations after it got into Cocolia's hands.
But she only slightly raised the power of the stellaron within her body, which made the small True Sting cling to Cocolia's hand as if it had encountered a natural enemy, unable to do anything.
"I see, hallucinations."
Luo Feng stroked his chin, looking like he had just learned about the small True Sting's ability.
"Pfft!"
Furina covered her mouth, almost bursting into laughter.
"Hmm? Do you have a problem, Furina?"
Hearing this, Luo Feng looked towards Furina.
"No, no, I have no problem at all."
Furina stood at attention, her expression instantly changing from suppressed laughter to seriousness.
"Alright, what about you guys? Do you have any problems?"
Luo Feng then looked at Lumine, Paimon, Venti, and the others who were also trying to suppress their laughter.
Everyone repeatedly waved their hands, indicating they did not.
They could tell that Luo Feng was joking with Navia.
However, at this moment, it wasn't appropriate for them to expose Luo Feng.
"Since it was a hallucination, there's nothing we can do."
"It's a shame about these various items given to me by the people of Belobog."
Luo Feng turned his head back towards Navia and said.
"Th- that... although I didn't mean to, I will compensate you, Luo Feng."
Navia said with a determined expression.
"Okay, then did you bring enough Mora?"
Luo Feng asked.
"Uh! N- no."Navia's determined expression instantly collapsed, turning back into a look of helplessness.
Seeing Navia's expression change so quickly, Furina immediately turned her back and covered her mouth.
Even the The Knave's face showed a hint of a smile.
.........
Chapter 503: Extraterrestrial Observers Are Much More Extreme Than Knight of Beautys
[Wriothesley: This is troublesome. By common sense, Luo Feng's things are very expensive. Not to mention, some things also have certain commemorative value.]
[Silver: Big trouble! Our current financial situation isn't exactly healthy! What should we do!]
[Melus: Don't be too anxious, Silver. Luo Feng seems to be joking with Navia.]
[Silver: Really? Does that mean Miss doesn't need to compensate Luo Feng?]
[Melus: Although Luo Feng is likely joking with Miss, it's also a fact that Miss damaged some items in the room. Therefore, we should logically find a way to compensate.]
[Silver: Isn't that still troublesome?]
[Wriothesley: Indeed. Even if Luo Feng doesn't ask for an exorbitant amount, damaging things on the Astral Express would require paying a considerable amount of Mora.]
[Alice: That's easy. Doesn't Luo Feng enjoy appreciating performances like dance, drama, and so on? Navia could just pay Luo Feng with her own talents.]
[Barbeloth: The premise is that she must actually be good at performing. Otherwise, there's no way to use her own performance to settle the debt.]
"Mm-hmm, your expression is really good."
"I'm not joking with you anymore, Navia."
Luo Feng suddenly smiled and said.
"Huh?"Navia blinked, looking confused.
"Although the people of Belobog gave me some souvenirs."
"But I didn't put them in the guest room."
"So what you damaged were just some items without any special meaning."
Luo Feng said.
"So... so, I don't have to pay too much Mora, or credit points?"
Navia's eyes lit up, and she asked.
"Hehe, I already said I was just joking."
"You don't have to pay any credit points."
"I can just replace the items in this room later."
Luo Feng said.
For him, Navia successfully obtaining a Path and giving this trip a good start was already compensation for Lord Luo Feng.
"No need to compensate?No, that's too inappropriate."
Navia shook her head, her mind already starting to think about how she should compensate Luo Feng.
Who knew that Luo Feng's next words would temporarily prevent Navia from thinking carefully.
"You really don't have to, as long as you don't mind me revealing some of your privacy."
Luo Feng smiled and continued:
"Also, congratulations on successfully obtaining a Path."
"That previous mental journey of putting aside contradictions and recognizing yourself in the environment was really quite worth seeing."
Luo Feng said.
[Marcel: Navia successfully obtained a Path?!]
[Charlotte: Since Luo Feng said so, it must be true.]
[Silver: That's great, this is really great!]
[Melus: This is indeed a good thing, but Miss Navia's current situation is slightly awkward.]
"Eh! Luo Feng, you know everything?"
Navia asked in surprise."
Not just me, everyone knows what happened after you returned to the room."
Luo Feng raised his finger and pointed at Clorinde, The Knave, and others behind him
.Navia blinked, looking at Clorinde and the others blankly.
Finally, Clorinde stepped forward and explained what Luo Feng had done by opening the surveillance equipment in the restaurant.
.........
"So... so, you all heard what I said in the illusion earlier?"
Navia swallowed, nervously saying to Luo Feng and the others.
Luo Feng, Sigewinne, and the others gave Navia a positive answer.
Even Argenti couldn't help but express his admiration for Navia:
"I didn't expect Miss Navia to have such a tragic past."
"However, you were ultimately able to let go of your anger and rationally accept Miss Clorinde again."
"How is this not a manifestation of Beauty? You are indeed qualified to embark on the Path of Beauty."
"That being said, I am still surprised that Miss Navia, you were able to embark on the Path of Beauty in this way."
"Perhaps I should adjust the plan and let you accept the test of becoming a Knight of Beauty in another form."
Although Navia had obtained the Path of Beauty, Argenti could clearly feel this, but obtaining the Path of Beauty did not mean becoming a Knight of Beauty.
So Argenti was still thinking about how to test Navia.
"Uh, thank you for your kindness, Argenti."
"But my mood is a bit complicated right now, and I'm really not in the mood for a knight test."
Navia smiled awkwardly and said.
Although being able to obtain a Path was a happy thing, everything that happened earlier was clearly seen by everyone, and even by Clorinde.
Navia didn't know how to act appropriately for a while.
Even though she had figured things out, Navia still needed some time to think about how to get along with Clorinde in the future.
"Navia is right, besides, embarking on the Path of Beauty doesn't necessarily mean you have to become a Knight of Beauty, right?"
Luo Feng turned around and looked at Argenti, saying:
"But no matter what, Navia has achieved some results now."
"So you should be able to rest assured, right?"
"Indeed, I can temporarily rest assured."
Argenti nodded and looked at Welt, who was trailing far behind everyone, and said:
"Since Miss Navia has successfully embarked on the Path of Beauty, I don't think it matters if I send Welt to the agreed place first."
" Luo Feng, thank you for your hospitality during this time. I think the time has come for Welt and I to leave."
Welt, who was not far away, secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Argenti's words.
Luo Feng also had no intention of forcing Argenti to stay.
After agreeing to meet again in Penacony and booking some rooms in Penacony through the invitation letter Argenti held, Luo Feng, The Knave, Navia, and others bid farewell to Argenti.
.........
"After this one left, I feel like the Astral Express is much quieter."
"I'm a bit unaccustomed to it for a while."
Paimon watched as the rare 'Rare Number' carrying Argenti and Welt turned into an aurora and moved away from the Astral Express outside the window, and said with some emotion.
"Although Argenti has a strange personality, he is a quite good person."
Navia said.
"If you really become a Knight of Beauty in the future."
"Perhaps you will also become the strange person you speak of."
Luo Feng turned back to look at Navia and said.
"Uh, let's forget about that."
"I've thought about it carefully before."
"It's fine if I obtain the Path of Beauty, but as for becoming a Knight of Beauty or something, let's forget about it."
Navia shook her head and said.
"If Argenti heard that, he would probably be quite sad."
"Also, if you don't become a Knight of Beauty, you might not be able to go too far on this Path of Beauty."
Luo Feng said with a smile.
"Ah?!"Navia was stunned.
The further one goes on the Path, the stronger the imaginary power the Pathstrider can control.
Navia naturally also hoped to become a more powerful Pathstrider.
"Do I have to become a Knight of Beauty?"
Navia muttered, feeling a bit conflicted.
"Or you could become an Extraterrestrial Observer."
Luo Feng shrugged and said.
"Extraterrestrial Observer, I remember Luo Feng, you once said that they are a group of people who believe that if they piece together the so-called transcendent realm, they can resurrect the goddess of Beauty."
"Is there any difference between them and the Knights of Beauty?"
Navia asked curiously.
"Knight of Beautys and Extraterrestrial Observers are undoubtedly fanatical believers of Idrila."
"But there are also differences between believers."
Luo Feng stroked his chin and said to Navia:
"Let's put it this way, Knight of Beautys are a group of people who can accept others showing different aesthetics."
"Just like Argenti, he can consider your behavior of overcoming the environment as a kind of Beauty."
"And Extraterrestrial Observers are a relatively extreme group of people. If they appear in front of you."
"Perhaps they will press your head and insist that what they consider beautiful is Beauty."
"As for other aesthetics, that's none of their business."
[Charlotte: This... this is too extreme, isn't it? Are these the Extraterrestrial Observers?!]
[Alice: According to Luo Feng, the Extraterrestrial Observers are even more fanatical believers than the Knights of Beauty.]
[Kaeya: The Knight of Beauty may have some quirks, but they are ultimately noble knights.
But for the Extraterrestrial Observers to force others to believe in their aesthetics, this is more like a group of inquisitors who deny other beliefs.]
[Columbina: There are two organizations with such a huge difference between those who believe in Beauty!
After seeing Argenti, it makes me even more want to see the Extraterrestrial Observers with my own eyes.]
.........
"Forcing their aesthetics into my head or something, that sounds pretty exaggerated."
" Luo Feng, why are the Extraterrestrial Observers so fanatical?"
Navia asked with some confusion.
Since she had embarked on the Path of Beauty, Navia felt that she should learn more about "Beauty."
"Who knows," Luo Feng shrugged and said:
"Perhaps it's because they believe that the reason the Pure Beauty Goddess Idrila disappeared was because people's definitions of beauty diverged."
"Therefore, they want people to adopt a single setting for aesthetics."
"I see." Navia lowered her head, seriously taking Luo Feng's words to heart.
" Luo Feng, why didn't you tell Argenti that we saw the phantom of the Beauty Goddess... earlier?"
"He should really want to see the Pure Beauty Goddess Idrila, right?"
At this moment, Clorinde, who was beside Navia, suddenly asked.
"You also saw how fanatical Argenti's belief in the Beauty Goddess is."
"If he really knew that I had the ability to take you to see the Beauty Goddess, who knows how excited he would be."
"Maybe he would even stay on my Astral Express and not leave."
Luo Feng shrugged and said.
"And after Argenti, I'm afraid more Knight of Beauty will board Luo Feng's Astral Express."
"Some Extraterrestrial Observers might even want to take Luo Feng away directly."
The The Knave rested her chin on one hand and analyzed.
"Hiss! I always feel that the Extraterrestrial Observers Luo Feng mentioned are indeed capable of doing such a thing."
Navia agreed.
"So, let's keep this matter a secret for now."
"Alright, everyone, don't keep standing at the door."
"Go and do your own things. It shouldn't be long before we reach our destination."
Luo Feng clapped his hands and looked at Navia and Clorinde.
"I think you two probably need some time to talk as well."
Luo Feng said.
"Well..." Navia glanced at Clorinde and nodded, saying:
" Luo Feng, you are right. I think I do need to talk to Clorinde."
Clorinde nodded slightly, clearly having the same intention as Navia.
However, after Navia turned and left, Clorinde didn't immediately follow, but instead came up to Luo Feng.
"Is there something, Miss Clorinde?"
Luo Feng asked in confusion.
"I want to thank you, Lord Luo Feng."
Clorinde said solemnly.
"Thank me? Oh... it's because of Navia, right."
Luo Feng waved his hand and smiled:
"It's nothing. After all, it was that small True Sting that caused Navia's illusion."
"And the one who broke through the psychological barrier was Navia herself."
"In this matter, I didn't do anything."
Clorinde shook her head and said:
"But it was you who allowed that True Sting to return to the room with Navia."
"In other words, if it weren't for you, none of what happened afterward would have occurred."
"I know my strength is insignificant in your eyes, but if you ever need my help in the future, please tell me."
"Really?" Luo Feng raised an eyebrow.
"Of course!" Clorinde nodded heavily.
Luo Feng: "Alright, since you said so, I have something I need you to do right now."
Clorinde: "I'm all ears!"
Luo Feng turned around and, under the Traveler's confused gaze, brought her in front of Clorinde and said:
"The Traveler really wants your black stockings, why don't you give her yours."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Traveler's eyes instantly widened, and she looked at Luo Feng and said:
"Hey, when did I ever say such a thing?!"
"Just say whether you want them or not!"
Luo Feng said.
"...I admit I want them, but don't even think about using me as a shield for you to get Clorinde's beautiful black stockings!
"The Traveler's tone was firm, as if nothing could change her mind.
However, after glancing at Clorinde's legs, her expression changed, and she smiled and leaned closer to Luo Feng's ear:
"Unless you really let me keep Clorinde's black stockings for a while."
Hehe, it smells so good!
..........
Chapter 504 Duke Inferno Approaches, the Traveler Hastily Proves Herself
"Traveler, you're so despicable."
Paimon covered her forehead, looking at the Traveler speechlessly.
How did she end up following such a person.
As a girl, she always wanted other girls' stockings.
If it was just that, it would be fine.
But she insisted on using Luo Feng as an excuse.
No, Luo Feng was the same.
Paimon looked at the Traveler, then at Luo Feng, sighing in her heart at how similar the two were.
Hadn't Luo Feng used the Traveler as an excuse to ask for others' ~stockings?!
The Traveler and Luo Feng, they were completely a pair!!!
Just as Paimon was shaking her head and imagining the scene of Luo Feng and the Traveler walking into the wedding hall, with herself as the flower girl.
She didn't notice that Clorinde, after a moment of thought, slowly took off her shoes.
Following that, were the pitch-black stockings that reflected the light.
Luo Feng was originally messing around with the Traveler, but after noticing Clorinde's actions, he immediately turned his head to look.
Plump, seemingly elastic white thighs were freed from the constraint of the black stockings.
That smooth skin seemed to reflect light more than the specially made stockings.
Although these thighs looked plump, they didn't make one feel they were fat.
Paired with Clorinde, they seemed just right
"Hey, I'm talking to you."
"Where are you looking?"
The Traveler frowned in confusion and turned her head, following Luo Feng's gaze.
When she saw Clorinde with her white thighs exposed, holding a pair of black stockings and handing them over, the Traveler was stunned for a moment.
"So beautiful... No, what are you doing, Miss Clorinde?"
The Traveler asked.
"Luo Feng said you wanted this, so... here you go."
Although Clorinde was answering the Traveler, her gaze was fixed on Luo Feng.
Clearly, the true recipient of the item in her hand was not the Traveler, but Luo Feng.
Clorinde's voice remained cold.But a faint blush appeared on her face.
There was nothing she could do; even for her, a cool-headed Shadow Hunter, it was the first time doing something like this.
But even with the shyness in her heart, Clorinde wanted to express her gratitude for the help Luo Feng had provided.
The rift between her and Navia had lasted for far too long.
Now that it was suddenly resolved because of Luo Feng, how could Clorinde not be happy?
"Cough cough, I was just saying it casually."
"I didn't actually want your stockings."
"But since you've already taken them off, I'll reluctantly accept them."
Blushing, the Traveler turned her head away and reached out to take the item from Clorinde's hand.
"Traveler, you're so fake."
Paimon covered her mouth and chuckled softly.
[Yae Miko: Yes, the Traveler is indeed a bit fake right now.]
[Prince: Sigh, why does she like these things so much?][Alice: Hehe, the Traveler's personality is quite interesting, isn't it.]
[Charlotte: I didn't expect that Miss Clorinde would actually take off her stockings and give them to the Traveler. No, she probably wanted to give them to Luo Feng.]
[Chiori: It's clear that Navia is very important in Miss Clorinde's heart, which is why she was willing to give away a personal item to thank Luo Feng.]
[Barbeloth: Mona, you need to be careful, it's best not to appear in front of the Traveler and Luo Feng at the same time.
Otherwise, that outfit of yours might also end up in Luo Feng's hands for some reason.]
[Mona: I... I wouldn't!]
"Paimon, I think you need a good pat."
The Traveler's threatening words didn't scare Paimon; instead, she became even more excited and teased the Traveler.
"Well then, I'll be leaving now, Luo Feng."
Just then, Clorinde said to Luo Feng and quickly left the room.
It wasn't until those plump thighs disappeared from view that Luo Feng withdrew his gaze.
"Was it nice to look at?"
The Traveler's voice suddenly sounded beside Luo Feng's ear.
He could even feel the Traveler's breath from the corner of her mouth.
"It was quite nice."
Luo Feng turned his head and looked at the Traveler's face, which was very close.
"Hmph, I thought you were a staunch black stocking fan."
"Turns out you're interested in thighs without black stockings too."
The Traveler said, crossing her arms.
"I'm interested in beautiful things."
Luo Feng naturally puffed out his chest and held his head high.
Seeing Luo Feng's appearance, the Traveler first sighed helplessly, then leaned close to Luo Feng's ear and whispered:
"Then what about me? Do you consider me a beautiful thing in your heart?"
After speaking, a hint of a blush, difficult for others to notice, flashed across the Traveler's face.
Luo Feng: "You? Just average."
Traveler: "What? Why am I just average?"
Luo Feng: "Just a feeling."
Traveler: "But... but damn it, is it because I'm not wearing black stockings?"
After saying that, the Traveler looked down at the black stockings from Clorinde in her hand, seemingly contemplating whether she should put them on.
"Let's leave here if there's nothing else; this is Navia's room after all."
Luo Feng waved his hand and walked ahead.
"I don't believe it!"
The Traveler stamped her foot, quickly went to Luo Feng's side, grabbed his hand, and ran out along the Astral Express corridor.
Even with Paimon calling out from behind, the Traveler didn't have time to pay attention.
Helpless, Paimon could only chase after them at her fastest speed.However, the Traveler and Luo Feng were too fast.
After Paimon chased out of the room, she couldn't see either of them.
She did, however, see Navia and Clorinde talking not far away.
"...It's the first time I've seen you dressed like this, it looks quite nice."
Navia said, her gaze occasionally sweeping towards Clorinde's legs.
Clorinde: "Thank you."
"You're really calm, but do you really not mind giving your personal item to the Traveler... to Luo Feng?"
Navia remarked.
Although Clorinde had previously told her that she was giving the stockings to the Traveler.
But Navia felt that these stockings would likely end up with Luo Feng.
At least, Clorinde probably intended to give them to Luo Feng.
"Compared to what Luo Feng brought me... brought us."
"What I gave is nothing at all."
Clorinde remained calm.
"That's true..."
Navia nodded slightly, thinking in her heart whether she should give the black stockings Chiori gave her to Luo Feng
.No!
Giving them directly to Luo Feng doesn't seem right.
Compared to a direct gift, wearing that outfit and showing herself to Luo Feng seems more appropriate.
At that time, perhaps she could even learn from Asta of Herta Space Station and offer Luo Feng a lap pillow.
A scene of her offering Luo Feng a lap pillow appeared in Navia's mind, and her face couldn't help but blush.Just then, Paimon's voice woke Navia from her fantasy.
"...Navia, do you know which way Luo Feng and the Traveler went?"
Paimon flew over and asked.
"As for the Traveler and Lord Luo Feng, I think I saw her pulling Luo Feng in that direction earlier."
Clorinde raised her finger and pointed in a direction.
"It seems they went back to your room."
Navia thought for a moment and replied.
"Went back to our room?"
Paimon rubbed her chin and quickly turned around, flying towards her and the Traveler's room.
Navia watched Paimon's retreating figure and asked Clorinde beside her:
"Clorinde, what do you think the Traveler went back to the room with Luo Feng to do?"
Hearing this, Clorinde thought seriously for a while and said:
"Perhaps seeing that you've embarked on the Path of Beauty, the Traveler wants to find an opportunity to consult Luo Feng on how to obtain a second Path?"
Honestly, Clorinde also quite wanted to consult Luo Feng about the direction of obtaining a Path.
"Is that really the case?"
Navia narrowed her eyes and murmured.
.........
Paimon's speed was not slow, and she quickly flew to her and the Traveler's room.
However, when she tried to push the door open, she found that it wouldn't budge.
"Locked?"
"Why lock it?"
"Wait, could it be that the Traveler wants to..."
Paimon's eyes widened, a hint of blush flashing across her cheeks.
"If that's the case, I really shouldn't bother them."
"Mhm, let's find something else to do first."
Paimon's lips involuntarily curled up.
After giving a thumbs-up to the door, she slowly flew off elsewhere.
She didn't mind Luo Feng taking up the time she would spend with Luo Feng
.But some people were quite anxious about Luo Feng and Lumine possibly being alone together in a room.
[Prince: Luo Feng and the Traveler are in the same room right now? Fake, this must be fake!]
[Alice: I know you're anxious, but don't be anxious yet. Maybe Luo Feng and the Traveler are just discussing life in the room?]
[Barbeloth: Right, right, discussing and discussing, and a new person will be born.]
[Mona:???]
[Prince: Shut up, witch!]
[Klee: Why would a new person be born?]
[Jean: Klee, it's nothing, they're just joking.]
[Lisa: Is it really a joke? I feel like the Traveler has been coveting Luo Feng for a long time.]
[Ningguang: Yes, when she was in Liyue, she often pestered Luo Feng.]
[Beidou: Speaking of that, Ningguang, it seems you are the same, right?]
[Ningguang: If you, Beidou, want to spend more time with Luo Feng, it's not that I'm unwilling to help you.]
[Beidou: Tsk, I'm currently the Navigator of the Astral Express on the Liyue to Xianzhou Luofu route. I'll have plenty of opportunities to talk to Luo Feng.]
[Ningguang: Is that so, hehe.]
[Keqing: I feel like you all have hidden meanings in your words. Is it my imagination?]
......
"I say, it's just this little bit of exercise."
"Do you need to be so out of breath?"
Luo Feng crossed his arms, watching Lumine, who had locked the door and was leaning against it, with interest.
"Hmph, I just made a decision."
Lumine said, pouting.
Luo Feng: "Is that so?"
Lumine held up the stockings from Clorinde in her hand and said,
"Just you watch, today I will let you know that I also have enough charm."
Luo Feng raised an eyebrow and asked,
"So you plan to wear Clorinde's stockings?"
"It's not that I look down on you, but your legs are too thin."
"Without Clorinde's sexy thighs, you can't support these stockings."
"Of course I know that."
Lumine angrily threw the stockings in her hand towards Luo Feng.
She walked to the wardrobe next to her and took out a pair of stockings one size smaller.
Then, right in front of Luo Feng, she put them on.
"Ta-da, how is it? Doesn't it look good?"
"Have you experienced my charm?"
"These are stockings that I consulted Cloud Retainer about, and she made them for me herself."
Lumine spun around in front of Luo Feng, saying with a giggle.
"You and Xianyun actually have such a transaction?"
Luo Feng raised an eyebrow and said,
"I believe in Xianyun's control over black stockings."
"These stockings are indeed quite good."
"But they don't seem to match the clothes you're wearing."
Lumine waved her hand, took out a dress from the wardrobe that was similar to the one she was wearing but with black as the main color, and said with a smile,
"After changing into this, it will fit."
"It looks pretty good."
Luo Feng nodded affirmatively,
"So this is the charm you plan to show me?"
"Of course not."
Lumine shook her head, her expression suddenly becoming a little shy.
Without waiting for Luo Feng to continue asking, she suddenly walked quickly to Luo Feng, leaned her head next to his ear, and whispered,"
Luo Feng, something happened between you and Ningguang, right?"
Luo Feng: "..."
"I knew it. You still want to hide it from me?"
Lumine snorted, and then her voice became extremely gentle again.
"Luo Feng, I won't compete with Clorinde."
"Let me compare charm with Ningguang."
"Of course, you will be the judge."
As Lumine spoke, she gently breathed into Luo Feng's ear.
"...You seem quite confident, Lumine."
Luo Feng was silent for a moment before saying.
"Of course, don't look at how young I am, but I'm a woman who has lived for hundreds of years."
"I've read various related materials and mastered a lot of theoretical knowledge."
"Although Ningguang seems more mature than me.""
But in some aspects, I must be better."
Lumine's lips curved up, and she confidently placed her hand on Luo Feng's collar, continuing,
"All in all, today I will make you change your opinion of me."
"And let you see how amazing my theoretical knowledge is, hehe!"
Lumine laughed excitedly.
After laughing, she gave Luo Feng a provocative look and asked,
"Luo Feng, you're not afraid to let me prove myself, are you?"
Luo Feng flicked Lumine's forehead with his finger and said with a smile,
"There's nothing I'm afraid of, only what I don't want to do."
"Lumine, I'm quite curious how you plan to prove yourself."
"Let me also remind you, I feel like we're almost at Duke Inferno's location."
"What? Then there's not much time!"
Lumine's eyes widened, and she quickly pounced on Luo Feng:
"I don't care, even if there isn't enough time, I have to prove myself to you properly."
After finally mustering the courage to confess to Luo Feng, Lumine was determined not to let it all go to waste.
If she failed at this point, Lumine didn't know when she would find another opportunity and muster the courage again.
......
Chapter 505: Could Duke Inferno be crazy, not knowing what fear is?
Astral Express, in the corridor leading to the reception room.
Luo Feng and Lumine, who was wearing a black dress and over-the-knee black stockings, walked together, chatting and laughing along the way.
"How about it, now you know how amazing I am, Luo Feng."
Lumine said with a smile, hands behind her back.
There were still faint blushes on her face.
"Mhm, I guess you're amazing."
Luo Feng nodded.
At this time, he also couldn't make Traveler lose face.
"Hmph hmph, as long as you know."
"If there wasn't enough time, I could show you even more techniques."
"Believe me, you will definitely fall under my charm."
Traveler held its head high, like a proud peacock.
In response, Luo Feng could only shake his head helplessly.
"You should still be a bit more low-key."
"Otherwise, you might be laughed at."
Saying this, Luo Feng placed his hand on the door of the reception room.
"I wouldn't... Wait, don't be in a hurry to open the door."
When Traveler saw Luo Feng open the door, it quickly retracted its expression, facing the people looking over and Paimon,
who flew over quickly, directly bypassing Luo Feng and coming before it, with a normal face.
"Traveler, you've come out."
"Did something happen between you and Luo Feng earlier?"
"Speaking of which, why did you suddenly change clothes?"
Paimon spoke as usual, but the curiosity in her large eyes was hard to hide.
[Yae Miko: "Did something happen?" Heh heh, I think this question doesn't need to be asked.]
[Prince: Why doesn't it need to be asked!!!]
[Yae Miko: After all, clothes were changed.]
[Prince:...]
[Lisa: There's even an outfit like this with matching stockings. It seems Traveler was prepared.]
[Chiori: A good design.]
[Cloud Retainer: Naturally, this is an outfit designed by this adeptus.]
[Ganyu: That outfit on Traveler, could it actually be from Master's hand!]
[Cloud Retainer: Hmm! Besides that outfit, this adeptus also designed a set of clothes with a strong Liyue style for Traveler. Perhaps you will see it later.]
[Chiori: So Liyue's adepti are also skilled at designing clothes? That's truly surprising.]
.........
"Cough cough, I didn't do anything with Luo Feng."
"As for changing clothes, of course, I change them when I want to."
Traveler waved its hand as if it didn't care.
Although it had previously mustered the courage to confess to Luo Feng.
But as for letting everyone know about this, Traveler was not yet psychologically prepared for that.
"Really?"
Paimon stared at Traveler suspiciously, watching it until it entered the reception room.
"Traveler, your outfit looks really good."
Navia looked at Traveler as it passed by and asked curiously.
Her gaze particularly swept over the pair of black stockings on Traveler's legs.
"Hmph hmph, it's not bad, right?"
"I specifically had someone make this."
"It shouldn't be like your pair, right, Clorinde?"
"Speaking of which, did you bring many pairs of stockings?"
Saying this, Traveler looked at Clorinde, who was standing beside Navia and had already changed into new stockings.
"After all, we'll be traveling outside for several days, so we must bring enough pleasant clothes."
"Traveler, this outfit of yours couldn't possibly have been changed specifically for Luo Feng, could it?"
Clorinde said, resting her chin on one hand.
Who knows."
Traveler spread its hands.
Not wanting everyone to discuss too much about what it and Luo Feng had done earlier, it directly chose to change the topic.
"Speaking of which, you were discussing quite intensely earlier."
"Can you tell me what you were talking about?"
Traveler looked at Navia, Clorinde, and Furina, and asked.
"Navia and Clorinde want to express their gratitude to Luo Feng as much as possible."
"So the two of them were asking me for advice on how to perform an opera."
Furina explained.
"I see."
Traveler nodded.It is well-known that Lord Luo Feng likes art, especially performances like song and dance.
It is very reasonable that Navia and Clorinde, who just resolved years of estrangement because of Luo Feng, would want to thank Lord Luo Feng with an opera.
"Then I won't disturb you. Please continue."
After Traveler finished speaking, it planned to leave.
"Wait... wait!"
Furina grabbed Traveler's hand and, with Traveler looking puzzled, leaned her face close to its ear:
"Hey, Traveler. Earlier, did Luo Feng guide you on how to step onto a second Path?"
"No, why are you asking this?"
Traveler asked, puzzled.
"N-nothing, I just thought you spent so much time with Luo Feng, you might have gotten some information."
Furina turned her head away, blushing slightly, and looked elsewhere.
As someone who has lived for several hundred years, Furina is more mature than she appears.
Luo Feng and Traveler were alone in a room, and Paimon wasn't with it.If you said nothing happened between Traveler and Luo Feng, Furina wouldn't believe it.
Furina originally thought Traveler's method could get some information about obtaining a Path from Luo Feng.
But now, it seems that is not the case.
Of course, Furina didn't think she could share these words directly with Traveler.
That being said, what Furina was facing was also an "old-timer" who had lived for several hundred years
.Moreover, Traveler had also been to many modern worlds with explosive information.
After hearing Furina's earlier words and seeing Furina's current expression, how could Traveler not guess what Furina was thinking?
Traveler twitched its mouth, put an arm around Furina's neck, took her two steps towards the next room, and whispered:
"Furina, you couldn't possibly think I offered myself to Luo Feng, could you?"
"And you even think I offered myself to Luo Feng to get information about stepping onto a Path?"
"You couldn't possibly want to use this method to get information about stepping onto a Path from Luo Feng, could you?"
"H-how could that be, haha."
Furina laughed dryly, not daring to meet Traveler's gaze.
"Suspicious, too suspicious."
Traveler shook its head, patted Furina on the shoulder, and said meaningfully:
"I'm not the kind of person who would trade my body."
"You'd best not have the idea of going to Lord Luo Feng to make a trade with yourself either."
"Although he hasn't said it, I think he would probably dislike such behavior."
"If he were to share the method of stepping onto a Path with someone, or provide more direct help, it would likely just depend purely on his mood."
"If you really use the idea you're thinking of, you might end up losing more than you gain."
"I... I understand."
Furina took a deep breath.She had also observed Luo Feng for a long time, so she naturally understood what Traveler was saying at this moment.
Furthermore, she was just acting on her desire to understand Luo Feng better, which is why she asked Traveler these questions.
As for trading her body or anything like that, Furina didn't have that idea, nor did she have the confidence.
After all, based on the current information, strictly considering appearance, Luo Feng should prefer slightly more mature women. Like Cocolia or Himeko.
At the very least, they should be like Navia or Ningguang
.A girl as 'barren' as her would probably find it difficult to win Luo Feng's favor.
Of course, while Furina didn't have the idea of trading her body, she did have the idea of trading herself.
She had originally thought of using the condition of being Luo Feng's exclusive opera singer for life, but decided against it.
Furina thought to herself.
"What are you two talking about?"
"I think I heard something about a trade earlier."
Just then, Navia's voice sounded in Furina's and the Traveler's ears.
"N-nothing, we were just chatting casually."
"Right, Traveler?"
Furina quickly said.
"Cough, cough, yes, yes."
"We were just chatting casually."
The Traveler nodded and said.
"Really?"
Navia narrowed her eyes, looking at the two before her suspiciously.
Her sharp intuition told her that Furina and the Traveler were definitely hiding something.
Seeing this, the Traveler had no choice but to change the topic again.
"Oh right, Luo Feng told me earlier that we've arrived."
"We might need to get off the Astral Express for a while next."
The Traveler thought of what Luo Feng had said to her in the room and told everyone.
"We've arrived?"
"No wonder the Astral Express hasn't moved since just now."
Clorinde rested her cheek on one hand and muttered.
.....
"After all, if we continue to move the Astral Express forward, Duke Inferno might notice.
"Luo Feng stepped over to Clorinde, Navia, the Traveler, and Furina, and said:
"Get ready to get off, everyone."
"I've already opened the portal leading to Duke Inferno's Eternal Fire Manor."
"Now I'm just waiting for you few."
Hearing this, Clorinde and the other three finally noticed the portal open in front of Venti, Raiden Ei, and the others.
At this moment, they were looking over here, waiting for them to come.
"Yes, yes, let's go over now."
"I'm really curious about what kind of expression Duke Inferno will have after seeing Luo Feng appear before him."
After the Traveler finished speaking, she was the first to walk towards the portal.
"Even Phantylia plans to go with us?"
Furina looked at Phantylia standing at the entrance of the portal with some confusion.
"She said she plans to see what kind of idiot regards the Aeon of Destruction as their benefactor."
"Anyway, Phantylia can't escape from my grasp, so let her go with us."
"Cocolia and Greater Lord Rukkhadevata can just keep an eye on the Astral Express."
Luo Feng explained.
"So that's it! After Duke Inferno sees Phantylia, and also sees Luo Feng, he will probably regret declaring war on Luo Feng back at Herta Space Station."
Clorinde said."
Heh heh, that's not necessarily true."
Luo Feng shook his head and led Furina, Clorinde, and Navia towards where the others were.
"Not necessarily? Could it be that Duke Inferno has power like yours, Luo Feng?"
"No, Duke Inferno couldn't possibly be as powerful as you, Luo Feng."
"Could it be that his bizarre flame with teleportation ability can ensure he's safe when facing you?"
Navia asked.
Duke Inferno isn't even a Emanator of Destruction, and the true Emanator of Destruction Phantylia was easily defeated by Luo Feng.
Now she's even being played with in Luo Feng's palm.
Navia couldn't think of a reason why Duke Inferno's power would surpass Luo Feng's.
"Indeed! Considering Luo Feng's power."
"Perhaps only a Aeon can match Luo Feng."
"Below the Aeon, whether it's a Emanator or anything else, none could possibly be Luo Feng's opponent."
Clorinde said in agreement.
"Thank you for trusting me so much, but let's not say things like I'm invincible below the Aeon."
Luo Feng shrugged and said.
Perhaps he could defeat other Emanator, but that Emanator of nihility, Acheron, might not be among them.
After all, this one is an existence that gets stronger the more she uses the power of nihility.
Of course, the price for becoming stronger is that Acheron's sanity becomes thinner.
"Duke Inferno's flame does indeed possess a peculiar teleportation ability."
"But when facing absolute power, it's not easy to deploy this ability."
"Coincidentally, I possess that power."
Luo Feng stood in the first row of the portal, smiling and clenching his fist at the crowd behind him.Against this, no one raised an objection.
[Alice: It's rare to see Luo Feng boast so domineeringly, he's getting more and more handsome.]
[Barbeloth: What, are you moved? Do you want Luo Feng to become Klee's Father?]
[Klee: Is Luo Feng going to be my Father? Yay!]
[Alice: Cough, cough, Klee, calm down a bit first.][Klee: Okay, Mother Alice.]
[Alice: Can you help me keep an eye on Klee, Jean?]
[Jean: No problem, Ms. Alice.]
[Barbeloth: Tsk tsk, you're even shy now, Alice.]
[Alice: If you keep talking nonsense, I'll go have a good talk with you right now, Ms. Barbeloth.]
[Barbeloth: Hmph, it was just a joke, is there a need to be so serious?
Forget it, I'd rather worry about why Luo Feng said Duke Inferno wouldn't be afraid of his arrival.]
[Barbeloth: It's really strange, that guy's power can't compare to Luo Feng's, and when facing Luo Feng, he has no way to use his flame to escape. So how could he not be afraid of Luo Feng's arrival?]
[La Signora: Could it be that this Duke Inferno is actually a madman and doesn't know what fear is?]
