Chapter 110: Is It Wrong to Call Someone Older “Sister”?

Chapter 110: Is It Wrong to Call Someone Older “Sister”?

“Of course it’s because it’s more comfortable to scratch my back in dragon form. Look at my scales, how they shine under Gaia’s **.”

Ailin swished her tail. Indeed, the scales there seemed to be shinier than before.

It seems that in stories, dragons do tend to like shiny objects, which might explain the existence of those greedy dragons hoarding treasures.

However, for Ailin, the shiny scales of the one she loves are the real treasures she cherishes most.

“Okay, I think I get it. But Gaia, is this really okay? Don’t you have official duties to handle? Is there really time for you to scratch her back here?”

Gaia, after all, is the monarch of a nation; his time should be incredibly valuable. Shouldn’t he be stuck in the office working day and night on paperwork instead?

“Because Ailin is by my side, I’ve already tackled those documents at 1000% efficiency.”

Wait, is that really true? As long as his wife is around, Gaia can handle work with ten times the effort? Aierjisi thought it was just an exaggerated expression of Ailin’s importance to him, but it turns out it’s genuine?!

“Alright… now I kinda understand. You two seem to have a better relationship than I imagined.”

Aierjisi had nothing more to say. But if she had to say something, she felt a twinge of envy toward the two of them. Ah… when will my Yake and I reach that level of intimacy?

“Ah… A-choo! Is someone talking trash about me? No, maybe it’s my mom thinking about me. Yes, that must be it.”

Yake wiped his nose and continued sorting through the items stored in Subspace and checking their maintenance.

“Isn’t that just a normal relationship? Don’t tell me little Aier isn’t at that level with Yake yet?”

“No, my Yake is still pretty shy. I’ve tried seducing him quite a few times, but he hasn’t taken the bait even once. Seriously, I don’t know if it’s his family issues or what, but getting him to express himself isn’t easy at all.”

Thinking about Reina, the woman who often tries to drug either herself or Yake, Aierjisi felt that Reina must bear at least 70%, no, 90%, no, 99% of the responsibility for Yake’s conservativeness!!!

“Feelings shouldn’t be rushed. After all, love at first sight is rare; most relationships develop over time. You’ve only known Yake for about two months, so it’s normal for feelings to be like this. Ailin and I have known each other for at least ten years.”

“Is that so? But in games or novels, relationships develop pretty quickly…”

As a typical otaku, Aierjisi thought that in most otherworldly adventure stories, the romantic plot lines between the main characters unfold rapidly.

“That only exists in novels or games, remember we’re not in some game or novel world.”

Ailin immediately pointed out Aierjisi’s mistake. Although they arrived in this world through gaming, it’s definitely not a gaming world.

“I know. Sigh, looking at you two, I can’t help but think of my useless Yake.”

The more Aierjisi thought, the angrier she became. What did she lack? Why was it that Yake had no interest in her at all?

“Well, like I said, feelings should take their time. If you rush it, it might backfire.”

“Good point. Besides, you’re a Blood Clan member; your lifespan isn’t very short, right? You have plenty of time to slowly cultivate feelings with Yake.”

“You two make it sound so easy.”

Considering her current lifespan, she indeed had enough time to develop feelings with Yake, but… if possible, she really wanted to get closer to him right now.

“Alright, Ailin. How’s this? I made each scale shine bright for you.”

Gaia had finished scratching Ailin’s back, or should we say, polishing her scales. Polishing every single scale on such a large female dragon was no easy task, and Gaia nearly lost his balance and fell off.

“Woohoo! As expected of Gaia, come, give me a kiss.”

Ailin didn’t even bother transforming back; she simply leaned in and kissed Gaia with her dragon head.

“Okay, okay, Ailin, hurry up and take a bath. I won’t stay with you two; enjoy your bath slowly. I’ve got stuff to do, so I’ll head out first.”

Touching the half of his face that had been kissed, Gaia left the bathhouse, leaving Ailin and Aierjisi behind.

“Ah, so comfy! Soaking in hot water after being ** is just unbelievably great. Don’t you agree, little Aier?”

“Ah? Ah… that’s definitely true. Bathing after getting your back scratched is much more pleasant.”

“What’s wrong? You seem a bit distracted just now.”

“Nothing, I was just pondering how to deepen my relationship with that blockheaded Yake and make him open up.”

Thinking about her own Yake, Aierjisi was genuinely baffled about how to approach him. This guy… how should she put it? He’s like a tomcat that has been **; he shows absolutely no interest in passion at all. Every day, he’s only focused on making money and finding more powerful gear.

“Hmm, if you’re troubled about that, big sister can help you out. After all, I’ve been with Gaia for thirteen years. I’m quite confident in matchmaking.”

Upon hearing that Aierjisi was distressed for that reason, Ailin instantly perked up. Perhaps no matter the world or race, any girl would be interested in others’ love lives.

“Sister… sister?”

Hearing Ailin refer to herself as “sister,” Aierjisi’s face muscles instantly stiffened. She was already 1300 years old, and Ailin, merely about 30, dared to call her sister…

“What’s wrong? Is there an issue? I came to this world before you did. Isn’t it fine to call me sister?”

“N-no problem at all. So, Ailin sister, could you teach me how to make Yake interested in me?”
