I’m Really Not Trying to Be Chased by the Heroine as the Villainous Playboy! – Chapter 927

Chapter 24: Who’s the Pillow?

After the banquet, Roy was assigned to a guest room.

To maintain his identity as Adventurer Roderick, Roy deliberately refused Janthea’s kind offer and chose to stay in the most humble room.

Anyway, it was just a place to sleep, and he didn’t mind. Every room in the Tree of God was filled with beautiful flowers and plants, and the view from the window showcased a whimsical scene of flickering fireflies; conditions weren’t bad at all.

Lying on the bed, feeling the absence of warmth beside him, Roy found it quite uncomfortable and simply couldn’t sleep. Instead, he let his mind wander.

Seat of the Verdant Council, Varolan.

It was probably this guy who was opposing Janthea, making it impossible for the Verdant Council to unify against All Things Wither.

Roy couldn’t care less about political systems.

There was no need to rush right now, but if All Things Wither took action later, stubborn elements like Varolan would likely become a significant obstacle.

However, that was the internal matter of the Verdant Council; even the kingdom’s dragon slayers couldn’t say much.

Say, was a person’s night always this long?

Humans sure are contradictory.

Not long ago, Roy was tormented by two girls, but now with no fragrant soft companion by his side, he felt a bit empty and chilly.

Just as he sighed about this, a subtle noise came from outside the window.

Outside?

An assassin?

A Varolan assassin? No way, it would be outrageous to want to kill him after just one meeting, right?

Constantly getting attacked by assassins had already given Roy some PTSD.

But soon, as that presence drew closer, Roy understood and lowered his guard, quietly moving to the edge of the window, using Still as Water to hide his presence.

A green figure floated gracefully into the room with the evening breeze, as smooth as flowing water, effortlessly at home.

The girl was still wearing his white shirt, her long white legs bare and her small feet exposed, looking hazy and a bit enticing under the moonlight.

“Hey, who’s out so late at night?”

“Right here.”

“!”

When Nia was suddenly embraced from behind, her ears twitched in fright, but upon hearing the familiar voice of the young boy, she quickly relaxed and shot him a resentful glance.

“What are you hiding for? Are you a kid?”

“You are! What are you doing sneaking into my room at this hour?” From her skilled movements, Roy knew she was already used to sneaking out.

The girl first jumped out of his embrace, then turned around, fluttering like a butterfly, and with her soft fingers, lifted Roy’s chin, throwing him a pure yet playful wink.

“Just missed you, that’s all!”

“…… Perfect, I’m in need of a pillow.”

“Eh?”

Without waiting for the girl to react, Roy pulled her onto the bed with him.

Her long legs struggled a couple of times before surrendering to symbolic resistance.

Nia flopped onto his chest, feeling the warmth from him; her little face turned slightly red, a mix of frustration and excitement, like a neighborhood girl holding a cuddly teddy bear, with a satisfied smile that screamed youth.

Just as Roy lost himself for a few seconds, he realized the elven girl had already wrapped her slender arms and ample legs around him.

“With me as your pillow, you can enjoy it secretly.”

“No way, this looks like you’re using me as a guarantee, right?”

“Don’t sweat the details~”

After some playful banter, the night settled into tranquility.

Nia closed her eyes, realizing she hadn’t enjoyed such a leisurely night alone with Roy in a long time.

The fresh and pleasant evening breeze, the boy’s sturdy embrace, and the gentle happiness lingering in her heart nearly made Nia forget her initial goal.

To win over Roy, make the rice cook until fully done, successfully turning the tables, and step onto the pinnacle of the harem.

But…

Wasn’t it okay to take it easy? Time was still early, just enjoying his company was nice…

Hesitant, Nia didn’t dare to take it further and instead dozed off in the boy’s embrace.

Since experiencing the intimate matters between men and women, Roy found his patience diminished.

Being embraced like this by the elven girl, only wearing his white shirt, left him completely parched.

“Nia?”

The only response was a soft breath of sleep, her delicate eyelashes fluttering gently, as if resting like a butterfly in the evening wind.

Goodness, does she really think I’m her pillow?

With a wry smile, Roy covered Nia with a thin blanket and closed his eyes as well.

If there was anything that could overshadow the desire that came with feelings, it was the cherished affection that accompanied them.

Until she was truly ready, there was no need to pursue physical desire.

After all, the time spent leisurely together was precious beyond measure.

A night of sweet dreams.

The next morning, the sound of a maid knocking awoke the two.

In a split second, Nia hurriedly scrambled back through the window to her own room, creating quite the ruckus early in the morning.

Later, after washing up, Roy reunited with her, and they headed to the Adventurers’ Guild.

“By the way, aren’t you the chief’s daughter? Don’t you have any political duties to take care of?”

“The parliamentary system spreads the work among everyone, so it’s pretty easy, really; Mom can handle it alone. Besides, do we look like we can manage politics?”

Only Nia could say such things with a proud expression.

“So, your plan today is just to relax and enjoy?”

“Why not? Don’t overthink it; it’s rare to have summer vacation, so what’s wrong with living leisurely… Um, let’s start with breakfast. Just a taste of the Tree of God‘s materials is enough. I’ll take you to the guild for something nice!”

Lazy! So lazy!

Don’t underestimate my self-discipline from training with Charlotte, Alice, and Teacher Xue Nuo!

The plan for the day starts in the morning! It’s early, so either exercise or study hard; how can I be this lazy?! Don’t think one breakfast will turn me into a lazy dog like you!

Roy wanted to complain, but the breakfast at the Adventurers’ Guild was just too tempting.

The Verdant Council’s guild was also set in a treehouse. However, the food perfectly combined ingredients from the outside world with fresh fruits and vegetables from the council.

Carefully sliced, crisp and juicy lettuce and tomatoes, paired with sizzling bacon and sausage, a side of creamy cheese bread, and a cup of lovely elven honey flower tea made this simple meal capable of waking up a beautiful morning.

It was more than enough to make Roy completely forget about self-discipline.

“Wow, I can’t believe Miss Nia actually brought a man back!”

“Whoa, the Big Sis actually has a guy now! I won’t accept it; I want a duel!”

“That’s right, an adventurer below A-rank—no, below S-rank—doesn’t deserve Big Sis Nia!”

The breakfast was delightful, but as soon as they entered the guild, the ongoing racket around them left Roy speechless.

“That’s enough! We’re just having breakfast together; what’s with all this nonsense? Distasteful!”

Natasha slammed a fist on the bar, finally quieting the boisterous adventurers.

It was said she was the guild’s leader, explaining her great authority.

However, just as Natasha calmed the crowd, Nia deliberately leaned in, unabashedly wrapping her arms around Roy’s neck.

Her dress barely concealed her abundant curves, making Roy’s delicious breakfast lose its flavor, and the surrounding area erupted in a suffocating chorus of moans.

The elven girl turned back, beaming brightly at everyone: “Ahem, let me clarify; don’t get the wrong idea, our relationship is exactly what you think it is!”
