After Special Ops Na returned, Kiana said her goodbyes to everyone at the Tavern, then took Mei and Bronya out of the Tavern and back to the real world.
Upon returning home, Kiana reached out to Mei and Bronya, inviting them:
"Mei, Bronya, come play in another universe with me. Consider it... a date?"
"Another universe? Is this what you mentioned before, the thing you needed to do?"
Bronya spread one hand and raised an eyebrow.
Everyone had been so worried about this girl, yet after waking up, she was already thinking about running off to play instead of meeting with everyone first.
"Kiana, it's better to meet with the others first. We're in no rush regarding the other universe."
Mei sighed somewhat helplessly.
Kiana had been asleep for so many years, and while it seemed her consciousness had been wandering in another world, how was she still so playful after all this time...
"Alright..."
Kiana pouted upon hearing this.
Since her wives said so, she would just have to be obedient and do as told.
While Mei and Kiana were talking, Bronya's eyes flickered with a faint blue light, which then gradually dimmed before she looked toward Mei.
"I have already notified everyone."
"Thank you, Bronya."
Mei gave Bronya a gentle smile upon hearing the news.
Just then, countless familiar presences were flying toward their location at extreme speeds.
Fu Hua, Senti, Seele, Elysia, Little Corruption, Li Sushang, Aunt, Liviel, Yashu, Lisa, and so on...
Everyone familiar with her rushed over after receiving Bronya's message.
Seeing that Kiana was just as she had always been, everyone felt relieved, their eyes filling with tears of joy as they congratulated Kiana on her awakening.
After seeing Kiana, many people were reluctant to leave but had to depart for the time being.
They needed to finish their official duties; after all, they held high positions and had to lead by example, otherwise, what would the younger generation think?
"Kiana, you're finally awake! I thought I was going to be a widow, waah..."
Seeing that Kiana was free, Liviel suddenly threw herself into the other's arms, rubbing against her while speaking sadly.
He Ying stood behind Liviel, scratching her cheek with an embarrassed expression.
Mei and Bronya, who were always by Kiana's side, both had a cold glint flash through their eyes as they squinted at Kiana in unison.
Wow, she's not even pretending anymore, is she?
Doing this right in front of them now—she really doesn't respect the main wives at all.
Being stared down by two death glares, Kiana's hands, which had intended to hug Liviel back, froze in mid-air, a stiff smile tugging at the corners of her mouth.
"Liviel really loves to joke... haha, hahahaha..."
Kiana laughed dryly, gently trying to push Liviel away from her embrace, but...
The other girl was holding on far too tightly!
Because she did indeed have a relationship with Liviel, she couldn't bring herself to use more force to push her away; otherwise, the girl would surely be heartbroken.
But if she didn't push her away, the two beside her were going to tear her to pieces with their gazes...
Please, anyone, come and save This Young Miss!!!
Kiana's eyes were hollow as she inwardly pleaded for some righteous savior to descend from the heavens.
Tap, tap, tap...
The crisp sound of high heels clicking against the floor rang out. Kiana looked toward the sound; her eyes lit up at first, but then, as if remembering something, her face instantly turned pale green.
Because...
"Isn't this my superior and lov—"
Stare...
Kiana bared her teeth like a bristling kitten at the newcomer—the Second-Generation Herrscher of Lust (mistakenly), Vita.
Vita paused mid-sentence, startled by Kiana's adorably fierce expression, then lightly covered her lips with a finger and chuckled:
"Alright, alright, no more joking. I came here..."
Vita drawled in a slightly lazy tone, glancing at the Frost-faced Mei and Bronya before continuing to look at Kiana:
"It's about some matters regarding the Sky-Faring Commission. The General Taiyin, who oversees the big picture, has awakened, so there are things to discuss with her. You two..."
As she spoke, Vita shifted her gaze to Mei and Bronya.
The two gave Vita a flat look, then glanced at Kiana and Liviel, huffed, and withdrew their icy auras.
Even though they were prepared for it, seeing Kiana being so intimate with other girls right in front of them still made them feel uncomfortable.
Since an excuse had been provided, the two didn't intend to keep making a scene.
"Phew..."
Kiana breathed a sigh of relief, looking at Vita with gratitude.
As expected of the clever Vita; she really saved her life!
It seemed she would have to connect with Vita more often in the future!
"Liviel, be good. I'll go to your house to play with you later. Can you let go of me for now?"
Kiana spoke softly in Liviel's ear, placing extra emphasis on the word 'play'.
Liviel's eyes lit up, and she let go of Kiana with a satisfied smile. She then glanced at Mei and Bronya, her lips curling slightly as she tilted her head triumphantly.
This little gesture naturally didn't escape Kiana's eyes, and she could only give a doting smile in response.
Compared to before the slumber, Liviel was much more mature, having shed her childishness to grow into a girl.
Added to that was a hint of charm in her eyes that didn't belong to a typical girl, making Kiana more and more satisfied the more she looked.
But with others around, she couldn't show it; otherwise, she'd likely have a hard time...
If she had to endure a continuous chant of water magic for a day and a night, those two wouldn't let her off the hook.
Kiana cautiously glanced at Mei and Bronya, then quickly grabbed Vita's arm and fled the scene as if escaping.
Once she felt the gazes on her back disappear, Kiana breathed a sigh of relief as if a heavy burden had been lifted.
"Darling, if you're so afraid, why are you still so flirtatious?"
Seeing that no one was looking for the moment, Vita reached out a slender finger to poke Kiana's cheek, wearing a lazy and slightly seductive smile.
Kiana gave Vita a dry look, brushed her finger away, and said in a somewhat innocent tone:
"I don't want to be either. I just want everyone to be happy. I didn't expect things to turn out like this unintentionally..."
After speaking, Kiana guiltily averted her gaze, avoiding Vita's playful eyes.
Vita's look seemed to say:
"Keep pretending. I'll just watch. If I believe a single word you say, I lose."
While looking at Kiana, a flash of mischief crossed Vita's eyes as she linked her arm with Kiana's.
The Vita from next door wouldn't dare be so cheeky with the Herrscher of Finality, but the Kiana of this universe was a bit different~
(Heehee)
"Oh? So Little Junior Aunt was hiding here with Vita."
Li Sushang walked over with a girl who looked remarkably like her and greeted Kiana.
The girl behind Li Sushang looked over with eyes full of curiosity, observing the legendary General Taiyin who was said to be like a deity.
"Oh, it's Sushang. And this one behind you..."
Kiana looked at the girl behind Li Sushang, who looked almost like her twin.
She felt like this child looked a bit familiar, especially that expression full of wisdom ().
Li Sushang pushed the girl forward and looked at Kiana with a grin:
"Heh, why don't you try to guess, Little Junior Aunt?"
"Sushang, when did you give birth?"
"..."
Kiana, not remembering for a moment and speaking without thinking, blurted out those words, causing Li Sushang's smile to freeze.
