Time passed quickly, and Stelle and Eula had things to do, so they had to leave first.
Eula actually had no work today, and Stelle hadn't taken any commissions, but regarding Schubert's collusion with the Fatui, they still needed to go to the Knights of Favonius and Acting Grand Master Jean to report the specific situation.
As for Amber, since she had been busy all day yesterday, she needed to rest today. Stelle also promised that she would come back to accompany her after reporting the work there.
Of course, Stelle also understood Amber's implied meaning; she had long since promised Amber and certainly didn't refuse.
If Acting Grand Master Jean could relax in that way, Amber should be able to as well. She was tired all day yesterday, and Stelle also had an obligation to help her relax properly...
As for Lumine, she walked with them for a while. She had only wanted to see Stelle, and now it was time for her to go back, and bring Paimon some breakfast.
Actually, she also really wanted to invite Stelle to take on a commission together, but since Stelle had already promised Amber to accompany her for a day of rest, Lumine had to put it off and set the date for tomorrow.
And along the way, she and Eula also gained a certain understanding of each other.
She was greatly surprised to hear that the highly publicized Laurence Family's collusion with the Fatui was actually resolved by Eula, and even more so that Eula herself was a member of the Laurence Family.
However, compared to her, Eula was the more surprised one.
"So, you two actually only... much later...?" Eula looked at the two with some surprise after hearing about the events between Lumine and Stelle.
She had thought that Lumine and Stelle had known each other for a long time and had established their relationship much earlier.
She didn't expect that Lumine hadn't been much earlier than herself.
"I say, you, in the future, you won't be attracting even more women, will you?" Eula looked at Stelle, who was walking ahead and clearly a bit awkward, and couldn't help but ask.
"Uh, well, I, I can't say for sure," Stelle's steps paused slightly, almost tripping.
She was already very embarrassed listening to the two of them discuss how they met and how they got into their current relationship.
Now that Eula was asking such a question, she really didn't know how to answer.
She didn't want to lie, nor did she dare to say anything like she would absolutely not increase the number of people.
She felt that would be a flag, one that would definitely fall.
What would happen in the future... it was hard to say. She could try not to actively provoke other girls, but other girls might not be able to resist coming to her.
This succubus-like physique was destined to attract attention.
And she herself was very likely the type to accept all comers.
"You really dare to say that. I'll remember this grudge," Eula snorted softly, but she wasn't angry about Stelle's answer.
She knew that Stelle really couldn't control such matters. It was impossible to forcibly lock Stelle up and prevent her from interacting with other women besides them.
This was not realistic.
So, if there could be a perfectly happy ending for everyone, that would naturally be excellent, and she didn't mind.
"Alright, then I'll be going now," Lumine was about to say goodbye to Stelle.
Although there was a slight regret today, Lumine had already agreed with Stelle to go out tomorrow, whether for commissions or just for fun, she was already very happy.
"Mm, see you tomorrow," Stelle nodded to Lumine.
Seeing that no one was around, Lumine didn't rush to leave. Instead, she actively ran up to Stelle, reached out, and hugged her.
After taking a deep breath, she stood on her tiptoes and offered her lips.
Since they were still on the street, it didn't last too long, and the two separated quickly.
"See you tomorrow," Lumine licked her lips, then waved to Stelle and turned to leave.
"You, you two really..." Eula watched this scene, and a blush couldn't help but appear on her cheeks.
After all, they were still on the street, and although there weren't many people, it was still a bit stimulating for her.
"Eula wants some too?" Stelle tilted her head, revealing a mischievous smile, and asked Eula.
"No, how can you ask such a question? I'll remember this grudge... Ugh?!" Unfortunately, Eula's denial was useless against Stelle.
-
A moment later, in Acting Grand Master Jean's office.
"Ah, you two are here," Jean smiled involuntarily when she saw Eula and Stelle arrive together.
"Good morning, Jean," Stelle greeted with a smile.
"Mm, good morning..." Jean nodded, then looked at Eula.
She keenly noticed that Eula had changed very noticeably at this moment.
"It seems, as expected, it didn't surprise me," Jean said to Eula with a smile.
"You, what are you saying? I don't understand," Eula turned away, not looking at Jean.
She certainly understood what Jean was saying. This feeling was very strange. Before, Jean, Amber, and Stelle seemed to be able to communicate just by eye contact. Eula could never blend into their atmosphere and completely didn't understand what was going on between the three of them.
But now it was different; she could fully read Jean's eyes, and even understand those inexplicable words.
"Oh? You really don't understand? Then..." Jean smiled, then directly reached out and pulled Stelle into her embrace, pressing her lips against Stelle's rosy ones.
"Hey! You two..." Eula's eyes widened. She never expected the usually upright and serious Acting Grand Master to directly kiss Stelle in front of her.
And even make sounds that made one blush.
Truly, truly shameless!
However, the two almost ignored Eula, even seeming to get more into it.
After a long while, the two finally separated.
"Ha, Jean, you, what are you doing...?" Stelle suddenly woke up at this moment and quickly left Jean's embrace.
She licked her lips, savoring Jean's taste.
This morning, she had done this with three different people.
Their tastes were completely different, but combined, it was a whole new sensation.
This was quite... remarkable.
Stelle savored the moment, feeling as if a cat's paw was scratching at her heart.
Jean's actions just now inexplicably gave her an idea—to throw a big party.
Eula stood to the side, looking at Stelle in surprise.
Besides being surprised by how bold Acting Grand Master Jean was, she was also surprised by Stelle's reaction.
It was the first time she had seen a somewhat vulnerable side of Stelle.
Last night, she was completely suppressed by Stelle and even shamelessly begged for mercy at the end.
Stelle's expression at the time seemed to say: Please, you're so weak.
Eula pursed her lips.
She was a bit unconvinced. Other things were fine, but she particularly didn't want to lose to Jean, to the daughter of the Gunnhildr family.
Thinking this, Eula also actively walked to Stelle's side. Under Stelle's puzzled gaze, she reached out and pulled her into her embrace, and their Slimes bumped together.
"Ugh?!"
Eula, for once, was very assertive, actively kissing Stelle on the lips.
Jean smiled gently, silently watching the scene unfold before her.
