Chapter 86: Departure
Night Star Lan had a collar chain restricting Luo Xi, which was actually a super mysterious and totally weird forced contract. We’re talking major commitment issues here, folks!
It was probably a physical manifestation of her inner thoughts. Classic!
In no time flat, Night Star Lan figured out the whole contract deal. It was packed with ridiculous destiny and time-space powers galore. This meant she and Luo Xi were now eternally tied together, never to split up again, no matter where they went.
And even if Night Star Lan decided to take a jaunt through another dimension, she could zap right back to Luo Xi anytime she wanted! Like teleporting, but without the need for any boring coordinates.
Oh, and she could also call Luo Xi to her side at any time! Imagine: “Hey Luo Xi, could you show up right now? I need your fabulousness!”
Maybe she’d even summon Luo Xi while she was… ya know, taking a shower! Talk about a hilarious moment waiting to happen!
“Wow~ It’s that incredible? Then I feel a million times better…”
Wish Princess was living up to her title. Even turning into a star eclipse, the way to achieve wishes was totally on point! Way better than those wannabe wish machines in certain stories.
After a little experimentation, Night Star Lan confirmed she really could teleport to Luo Xi anytime. With newfound confidence, all her hesitation just poofed away.
Luo Xi was staring at Night Star Lan, her usual expression standing strong: completely blank. Though there was a hint of concern for this pesky little loli.
“If you encounter any danger, just teleport to me right away, and I’ll protect you.”
“Okay, no problem~”
Night Star Lan flashed an “OK” gesture like a pro.
But before returning, she definitely wanted to pop in and say hi to her pals in this time and space. After sleeping for what felt like forever, it was only right to reassure her friends she was still kicking.
Not checking in would be just rude!
Plus, glancing at the emotionless Luo Xi, Night Star Lan thought it might be nice to introduce her to Kong Yu Bai and the others. A little apology here and there wouldn’t hurt either, considering how Luo Xi had probably pulled some mind control antics on them.
I mean, that’s just downright rude, right? But hey, they were all friends now, no matter the differences. They had to get along!
Of course, Night Star Lan didn’t expect Luo Xi to fit in. Honestly, she didn’t seem like the type to play well with others, always sticking closely to Night Star Lan’s side.
No hesitation meant action!
Night Star Lan swung open the Theater Door and dragged Luo Xi in like it was no big deal.
Inside the theater, most of the theater group members were milling about, just waiting for Night Star Lan’s grand return.
Once familiar faces spotted her, they quickly swarmed like moths to a flame.
“Audience Performer! You’re finally back! We thought you were in some serious trouble!”
“Pfft~ No worries! I’m super strong! Just taking an extended power nap, that’s all.”
Then Lianhua and the others noticed the mysterious white-haired figure next to Night Star Lan and all went, “Uh, who’s this?”
Without missing a beat, Night Star Lan quickly shoved Luo Xi to the front to introduce her.
“This is Luo Xi, aka the Source of White! You all should totally get to know her!”
As Night Star Lan introduced her, the entire theater group suddenly felt the pressure. It was like standing in front of a celebrity! This was the legendary Source of White they were looking at, and she had a consciousness!
The thought of her being one of the creators of the power flowing through them? Major nerve-wracking moment!
How unfair is it to have such a powerful rival for attention?!
Luo Xi glanced at the girls, clearly reading their worry.
Now, did she care about outshining anyone? Nah. She knew that regardless of her actions, Night Star Lan would be glued to her like a kitten wanting to cuddle.
The dependency and possessiveness were already fully maxed out.
Heh, she planted those seeds long ago!
And honestly, even if she wanted to compete for attention, those girls didn’t need to sweat it. She’d likely be vacating this dimension soon anyway.
The real concern should be for her counterparts in the other realm!
Luo Xi politely bowed, not bothered by any hierarchy nonsense.
“Sorry for controlling your bodies and thoughts without your consent earlier.”
Being noble or high-class didn’t mean much to someone like her. If Night Star Lan wanted an apology, she’d give her one—after all those years in human society, she’d learned a thing or two. No need to act all high and mighty!
“Um…”
Lianhua and the others momentarily froze, trying to process what was happening.
The Source of White was actually apologizing to them.
Sure, she might look all cute and fluffy, but this ancient existence was being super polite. The pressure was definitely cranked up a notch.
“Um… no problem! We forgive you.”
“Let’s be friends from now on!”
“If she’s an audience performer’s friend, she’s our friend too!”
Meanwhile, Mo Rabbit was just standing off to the side, stroking her chin and wearing a mischievous grin.
“Who would’ve thought— even the Source of White can’t escape the clutches of that loli? I totally knew it.”
Mo Rabbit had seen this coming from light-years away.
Knowing Night Star Lan, if she didn’t snatch Luo Xi back, it would be a disgrace to her loli obsession!
Mo Rabbit dubbed Luo Xi a mix of greed and simplicity, but a goddess for Wish Princess forever!
No surprises here, folks. Luo Xi was likely to follow Night Star Lan of another dimension back to her reality.
This place would lose yet another source of amusement.
What a pity.
Suddenly, Mo Rabbit found herself envious of her other self.
Things in this dimension were about to get more stable.
Fewer exciting shenanigans meant pure boredom!
On the flip side…
After Luo Xi and Kong Yu Bai wrapped things up and apologized, Night Star Lan was ready to whisk her away.
She didn’t need to overstay her welcome in this reality. Just a quick visit to say sorry to Lianhua and the others was fine.
Soon enough, Luo Xi would be gone from this realm, and everything would get back to normal.
This dimension’s version of her would probably enjoy a super boring life, blissfully unaware of Luo Xi and Kuro.
Just drowning in the warm hugs of all her lovely girls. Sounds like a life, right?
That was a different future altogether.
And Night Star Lan was set to return with Luo Xi and forge a different kind of future!
One that was absolutely not any less juicy than this one!
Back in the Fish Playing House…
Night Star Lan was all prepped to go home.
“Alright, Luo Xi, let’s do this! I need to return and deal with the Theater Group Leader’s drama. Once I’m done saving the day, I’ll come back for the next dilemma.”
“Sure, take care on your way back!”
Luo Xi gently pressed her fingers against Night Star and Night Lan’s foreheads.
With a flash of white light, the two little lolis quickly fainted, and Night Star Lan switched back to her original dimension.
Luo Xi quietly sat beside the two lolis, waiting patiently for her to return.
