Chapter 27: 27. Kafni discovered an anomaly

Ninety-nine percent of the people present were deceived by Aiko, clapping earnestly for the emotions of the young girl.

But one person noticed something was off.

Kafni frowned with suspicion, even forgetting to crack the sunflower seeds in her hand.

She distinctly saw the corner of Aiko's mouth hidden under Lin Da's arm hook up for an instant!

It was just that it happened so quickly that Kafni thought she was seeing things.

But her eyes were sharp; it was impossible for her to be mistaken.

The other person had indeed smiled just now.

Kafni lost all interest in watching the excitement and felt a chill run down her spine.

She was almost fooled by Aiko's superb acting skills.

Even if those two went to a hotel to get cozy with each other, it wouldn't surprise her.

But now, Kafni wanted to say that wasn't a hole to vent desires, but a bottomless, man-eating abyss!

It seemed that Lin Da was comforting Aiko, who was like a weeping pear blossom.

In reality, it was like a giant python coiled around Lin Da, flicking its crimson tongue to lick its prey.

Kafni didn't act rashly, staring intently at Aiko with piercing eyes.

If Aiko harmed Lin Da, she would use up the last trace of her divine power.

Without the hero, no one would challenge the Demon King.

Little did they know, the person who was most uncomfortable at this moment was Lin Da himself.

Dozens of 'long spears and short cannons' were aimed at him, and with the precise magic circle technology, even the pores on his face were clearly visible.

To stand straight or not was a big problem.

Although Lin Da wasn't a person with weak willpower, his instincts were hard to suppress.

Aiko's body was soft, smelled nice, and she was plump all over, quite voluptuous.

If he had such a large pillow at night, he probably wouldn't be able to sleep.

Lin Da didn't dislike holding a girl like that.

The problem was there were too many people around, and he was being watched by pairs of jealous eyes.

"Aiko, I know everything you're saying, but let's talk another time, there are too many people here."

Lin Da tried to push Aiko away, but he was afraid of hurting the mage miss's feelings and making her cry louder, so he didn't use much force.

Fortunately, Aiko was essentially a mature girl, and after crying, she seemed to come to her senses. She rubbed her swollen eyes and reluctantly came out of Lin Da's embrace, muttering, "You must come back today, I will wait for you."

Lin Da nodded.

He would return, but not in the way Aiko was thinking.

At the same time, outside the Adventurer's Guild.

Lia, waiting inside the carriage, was growing impatient.

What were Aiko and the others doing; it had been so long and they still hadn't come out!

Shouldn't the team members obediently follow the captain?

To think that she had to wait in the carriage for half an hour.

It was utterly disrespectful.

Lia thought about going back to check, but felt it wasn't right. She had walked out with such chutzpah, turning back now would probably lead those tabloid reporters to misunderstand.

'We'll talk about this when nobody's around.'

That sentence of Lin Da echoed in her head.

What exactly did Lin Da want to say?

By nobody, did he mean no strangers, or just the two of them in private?

In the confined carriage, Lia's thoughts were influenced by the surroundings.

Earlier, she just thought Lin Da was envious of the Snow Goose Adventure Team, but now she suddenly wondered if there was another meaning?

Lia's heart skipped a beat, and her eyes unusually revealed a hint of panic.

If that situation really occurred...

She pondered anxiously for a moment, then shook her head; if it really happened, she could only reject.

Lin Da was too low-level, timid, and dared not enter the World Tree Secret Realm. Such a person's 'confession' was not yet qualified for her acceptance.

After deciding on her answer, Lia tensed up, readying herself for that 'moment when nobody's around.'

After a while, the door of the carriage was pulled open.

She coughed once, her face set in a serious expression as she looked on.

But the person who came in was Oru.

"Captain?"

Oru was confused, not understanding why Lia was looking at him with such a terrifying gaze.

"It's nothing, have a seat," Lia said coldly.

Afterward, the trio of young girls arrived.

"Lord Captain, what's the matter, in a bad mood? The press conference went very well today, didn't it?"

Aiko said with a smile.

She had already returned to her normal demeanor, the traces of tears around her eyes had been dried by Light Magic and vanished without a trace.

The members of the Snow Goose Adventure Team had agreed to keep the incident in the hall a secret from Lia.

They would wait until Lia, the Powder Keg, had calmed down before discussing Lin Da rejoining the team.

"I'm fine," Lia said, looking at the carriage door that Aiko had closed, her face expressionless, "Where is he?"

"Lin Da said there was no need for a carriage," Oru replied sheepishly.

"Oh, then let's go."

Lia's face grew even colder as she ordered the coachman, "Let's set off!"

With a flick of the reins, the Twin-Winged Blackblood Horse neighed loudly and disappeared at the end of the long street.

...

"Finally got away."

Lin Da and Kafni, both out of breath, peeked out from a narrow alley.

Looking around cautiously and making sure no reporters from the press were following, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, dusted off his clothes, and walked out of the alley.

It seemed that those newspaper reporters had a huge misunderstanding about his relationship with the Snow Goose Adventure Team.

He and Lia, along with the others, were just former teammates, yet those people believed he had cheated on Ice Flower's Isa, causing Lia's fury. Then Aiko intervened, and even the youngest, Klrona, was imagined as a new addition to his harem, to be targeted once she grew up.

Some even said he had set his sights on Oru's girlfriend, Klyne...

Lin Da had been cautious and anxious in planning strategies for the past three years, not even touching a girl panda, but through their distortions, he had been turned into some "Ultimate Pervert."

It was just ridiculous.

The worst part was that Aiko had made him quite embarrassed.

His resolve was too strong, and he didn't cower, allowing the reporters to capture the moment.

There might even be a close-up shot.

"It's going to be even harder now to recruit for the team—who would dare to join the 'Ultimate Pervert's' team?"

Lin Da felt disheartened.

"Can you help me out?"

The embarrassed voice of Kafni came from behind him.

Lin Da turned around, puzzled.

He saw that Kafni was stuck.

Strictly speaking, this alley was a gap between two buildings, about twenty centimeters wide. Lin Da had no problem passing, but Kafni, weighed down with two burdens, had squeezed in when pursued by the reporters and now had trouble coming out.

Lin Da looked at Kafni's awkward, immovable posture and fell silent.

After analyzing the situation, he said, "Spreading to the sides can reduce the length on the X-axis."

In layman's terms, it meant that two elevens side by side become one when pulled apart, allowing for escape.

Of course, this was useless for someone too small, but since Kafni was both large and round, this method was definitely effective.

After helping 'pull' Kafni out, Lin Da stared at his own hands in a daze.

Just now, the title of [The Man Who Touched No Panda] had disappeared.

Kafni's face inexplicably turned a bit red as she said, "Don't expect me, the Deity, to thank you."

"No, we're even," Lin Da replied.

He clenched his hands, the warmth on them feeling a little strange.

The first time, and it was brought about by Kafni.

This sense of incongruity left him feeling oddly unsettled.

Kafni was becoming more and more like a young girl.


Chapter 28: 28. Lin Da returns to the villa for a confrontation.

The two of them walked on foot toward the villa of the Snow Goose Adventure Team.

On the way, Kafni suddenly said, "Be careful with that Aiko."

"What do you mean?"

Lin Da was stunned for a moment.

He and Aiko, even though he had left the team, were still friends.

The one to be wary of, should be Lia, right?

Kafni shared what she had heard and seen within the Adventurer's Guild.

...

"Aiko was sneering?"

Lin Da found it unbelievable.

He imagined Aiko weeping in his arms with a bizarre expression of smiling while crying, and he couldn't help but shudder.

"You saw it wrongly?"

"No! My eyesight is fine."

Kafni said, "In my opinion, that Aiko is definitely no good."

"How so?" Lin Da reflected.

Stiffening a finger and with a serious face, Kafni continued, "Think about it, if she really cared about you, why didn't she stop that Lia when you were still in the team? She knows all about Lia always giving you a hard time, right? Otherwise, why would she say 'always standing by your side'?"

Lin Da reevaluated and found it to be true.

Aiko rarely stood up for him during his arguments with Lia; it always seemed coincidental, appearing only after Lia had left.

For instance:

Suddenly remembering that her hair clip was left in his bedroom;

The cooling magic array in her room not working, asking him to check it out;

The new clothes she bought didn't fit… always very normal reasons.

There's a saying, follow one cockroach, and you'll find a whole nest at home.

After learning this minor doubt from Kafni's mouth, Lin Da delved deeper and uncovered more suspicions about Aiko.

Aiko had volunteered to join the Snow Goose Adventure Team three years ago, but for someone with her background as a Light Mage trained at the Holy Light Church, tremendously talented, there was no reason for her to choose the still-developing Snow Goose Adventure Team.

Lin Da secretly inquired about her background and learned she was from the neighboring city, from the prestigious Thornbush family, her father being a level 30 Star-ranked adventurer, with many Iron Level teams within the family.

Why would someone like Aiko leave the Holy Light Church to join a poor and struggling Snow Goose Adventure Team?

Lin Da had initially pondered these suspicious points as well.

But after numerous adventures together, becoming real teammates, he no longer doubted her.

Having a common goal of reaching the top of the World Tree was enough.

After being reminded by Kafni, Lin Da then became alert.

"Thanks for letting me know,"

he said to Kafni.

He would be more cautious around Aiko in the future.

If possible, he did not want to be enemies with Aiko.

Afterward, Lin Da straightened his clothes and set off for the Snow Goose Adventure Team with the youthful and beautiful Kafni, with her long, white legs.

If everything went smoothly, he would be able to get his leave certificate before nightfall.

"The moment has finally come,"

Lin Da thought, feeling somewhat excited.

A team truly his own, teammates truly his own, without the likes of the annoying Lia...

Just thinking about it made him feel thrilled.

...

The location was a tranquil and wealthy neighborhood, inside the living room of the large villa belonging to the Snow Goose Adventure Team.

A pair of clumsy, highly inflexible high heels were casually tossed behind the door.

Like a toy bought for play once and then discarded due to boredom.

Lia sat on the sofa, her feet wrapped in thin black stockings, aching and exhausted.

She took out a palm-sized strawberry cake she bought on the way and began eating with an air of satisfaction.

After returning to the villa, for some reason, the others had all left to attend to matters, and Aiko was taken away by Klyne to go clothes shopping.

Only Lia was left, and she instantly stopped pretending, devouring the strawberry cake with a smug expression all over her face.

Did you see her perfect performance at the Attacker's press conference, Lin Da?

Without him, the Snow Goose Adventure Team is still top-tier!

Lia scooped up a bite of the sweet and sour cake covered in strawberry jam and thought delightfully as she popped it into her mouth: By next month's strategy for the eleventh layer, and the twelfth the month after that, we'll catch up to the Ice Flower Adventure Team. By year's end, we'll be the strongest adventure team in White Dove City!

Her haughty gaze drifted occasionally toward the mansion's door.

This was the time when 'no one was around'.

In a little while, Lin Da should be coming over.

Lia figured he was most likely coming to apologize.

There might be a chance he'd talk about other stuff, but she would definitely reject him anyway.

After wiping the cake from her lips, Lia walked over to a full-length mirror to straighten herself up.

Then she sat upright on the sofa and pulled out a book thick as a brick.

It would be perfect if Lin Da pushed open the door just as she was earnestly turning a page.

At that thought, Lia's lips almost curled up to the heavens.

The book was filled with knowledge about Magical Creatures—how to fight them, their weak points, the environments they prefer... the text was dense and detailed.

Five minutes later.

Lia's eyes were sore.

Studying was just too exhausting.

She'd study some more after resting a bit.

She always found anything with words quite vexing.

Right then, the door chimed.

And then, it was pushed open!

Lia quickly picked up the book again.

She arched her eyebrow slightly, feigning indifference as she looked in that direction.

As expected, it was Lin Da who walked in from outside.

But, there was someone else with him.

Seeing that person, Lia's face instantly changed.

The big-bear woman from the Adventurer's Guild, why was she still with Lin Da?

Lin Da brought an outsider, blatantly, to the Snow Goose Adventure Team's mansion?

Certainly not to beg her to add that person to the team!

Enraged, Lia gritted her teeth, her fingers leaving deep indentations on the book.

Her sideways glance fell on Kafni's face.

She saw a mature and seductive woman, with a tear mole near her eye emitting a fatally alluring charm.

Her chest could be dubbed grandmaster level; moving like water bags, jiggling back and forth.

Ten times hers.

Lia's eyes narrowed, her face cold as frost.

While Lia was looking at Kafni with full hostility, Kafni was curiously observing the redhead girl.

Being stared at with such a murderous glare right from the start, Kafni was extremely annoyed.

What the hell are you looking at!

Through others' eyes, Lia was a Young Lady.

But in Kafni's eyes, there were only two types of people in this world: hero workers fighting the Demon King and the rest were just a bunch of ants waiting to be rescued.

In honor of a certain hero who gave up his bed for a month, she'd help him this once.

Kafni scornfully glanced at Lia's flat chest, then reached out her hands and hooked Lin Da's arm.

It was her first time doing something like this, and Kafni was clearly uncomfortable.

She endured the heat in her cheeks, hooked the corners of her mouth at Lia, revealing a provocative expression.

Your unwanted former teammate, I'll straightforwardly clamp them with my breasts!
