Xingtie: My mission master joins the chat group.

【Ding dong! 】

Alicia: Is there no law anymore? Is there no justice?!

Kiana: I'm sorry.

Lin Mao: It was my fault.

Xing: You have to show your chest when you apologize! Newcomers don't know this rule, don't you two 'veterans' know it too?

[Ding! Group member Xing has been muted by group owner Kiana for one hour!]

Ying: Looks like a meow~

Lin Mao: It looks like a meow~

Funina: Looks like a meow~

Kiana: Looks like a meow~

When the +1 symbol appears at the end, almost no one can resist the urge to click it.

A series of "It looks like a meow~" appeared in the chat group.

Anyone who didn't know better would think that Xing had angered the public.

【Ding dong! 】

Funina: Isn't an hour-long ban a bit too long?

Who will make up for the lack of fun I have while she's gone for an hour?

The one who understands the law: Aren't Ying and Lin Mao still here?

Ying: BIG daring! I'm here to make you laugh! Brother Lin Mao~ Just enjoy the fun, you don't need to be the fun yourself!

Lin Mao: ...

The Law of Knowledge: @Lin Mao, you have a wonderful younger sister.

It's really... hehehe... I'm so envious... hehehe!

Lin Mao: Laugh less.

The Lawgiver of Knowledge: ? You knew I didn't laugh out loud?

She glanced at Lin Mao, who was now in the form of Cetalari. Logically speaking, he shouldn't have the ability to read her thoughts.

How do you know if you're secretly overjoyed?

Could it be the effect of that sword?

That's not right. Unless Lin Mao still possesses the same level of consciousness as me in my complete form, it's impossible for him to read my thoughts without me noticing.

【Ding dong! 】

Lin Mao: My shoulders were shaking so badly they looked like sieves, I couldn't even tell.

The one who knew the law looked up and met Lin Mao's dead fish eyes.

The Seer couldn't help but grin.

However, he still gave Lin Mao some face and didn't burst into laughter.

【Ding dong! 】

Ying: Brother~ Is there anything your sister can do for you?

Ying: Are you not satisfied with any of the beautiful girls I mentioned before?

Ying: If you're not satisfied, I can keep looking for someone for you and I guarantee I'll find you a suitable one!

Obsidian Granny: Did you come to Nata for adventure, or to Nata for romance?

Ying: Correction, I'm here to help my brother hunt for women, of course I'm here for the adventure.

Lin Mao: I'll give you a whack with a hammer!

Ying: Hitting someone is a sign of affection, scolding someone is a sign of love, my dear brother~ you really do love me.

Lin Mao: ...

Lin Mao: I can't take it anymore.

Why has Ying become so grotesque?

Lin Mao now has an urge to kill himself, or at least knock him unconscious.

It's too much to bear.

I feel a lot of pressure.

In the chat group, Ying was still tirelessly promoting pretty girls to Lin Mao, worrying herself sick over 'brother's' future.

【Ding dong! 】

Ying: Marani, Chaska, and also Shinonin, Mavica, Obsidian Grandma Sitrali, none of these will do...

Obsidian Granny: ...

When she saw someone in the group say that she was "not good enough", Cetalli had an urge to refute them, but when she thought about what the other person meant by "not good enough", she forced herself not to refute them in the group.

She believed that if she uttered even a single word in rebuttal, rumors would likely spread that she had feelings for Lin Mao.

Please.

It's interesting that Lin Mao is interested in her, not the other way around!

How could a dignified old woman possibly be so lustful as to be interested in young people these days?

She's quite old, but she still knows the most basic principles of propriety and morality.

"Hiss!" Cecilia crossed her arms and muttered to herself, "What if Lin Mao really has feelings for me?"

Should I refuse or agree?

"Oh dear! What am I thinking about!" Sitella patted her cheeks to clear her mind.

Unable to resist making a self-deprecating remark, "At my age, I'm still thinking about these strange questions. It would be more practical to think about what to eat tonight..."

"..."

But what should I do if he really has feelings for me?

How to do?

Grandma, I have absolutely no experience!

No, wait! Grandma has tons of experience!

All those romance light novels I've read over the years haven't been for nothing!

I've memorized all the countermeasures!

I, Cetalli, am now a master of love!

……

"What's wrong with you?"

Lin Mao patted his head, feeling that his emotions had been infected by Sitrali, and he had become more lively, which was manifested by his breathing becoming a little more rapid.

Ultimately, this body belongs to Cetalli, and Cetalli has not been completely separated from it. She still stays in this body, but the control has fallen into the hands of Lin Mao, this outsider soul.

The two share one body.

Some of Sitale's ideas can still influence Lin Mao.

"Hmm? Himeko? Who's that behind you?"

Once outside, Himeko turned on her communicator, and Theresa appeared from the projection, immediately spotting Lin Mao behind Himeko.

Himeko glanced at Lin Mao and recounted what had just happened; Theresa understood instantly.

Himeko didn't know, but she did know that the guy in front of her who called himself 'Sydora' was actually very likely Hayashi Shigeru.

However, regardless of who it is, since it's someone Kiana knows and has volunteered to help, there's no need to worry about it.

Shifting my gaze, I looked at the Lawgiver of Consciousness, who seemed to have ADHD, fidgeting every now and then.

His eyes narrowed to a dead fish-like expression as he slowly said, "I just received a communication. Fu Hua said she somehow overslept and couldn't participate in this operation. Do you have any leads?"

The Lawbringer of Knowledge stopped his various fidgeting, stroked his chin, and said in a serious tone:

"Perhaps I over-exercised yesterday, which caused my body to need more sleep to recover, which is why I missed this operation."

"Then what's the matter with you here?"

"Of course, it's so that the old man can get a good night's sleep."

The one who knew the law answered without even thinking.

"As the person closest to the old antique, how could I bear to see her come to carry out the Valkyrie mission with a tired body? Of course, I should let her get a good night's sleep. As for the mission, leave it to me!"

Lin Mao nodded in agreement after hearing this, "She truly is Fu Hua's good daughter!"

He truly puts his mother first in everything he does.

The moment he finished speaking, he was met with the deadpan gaze of the Herrscher of Knowledge, and the urge to fight Lin Mao one-on-one resurfaced in his mind.

Good daughter...

Theresa, Himeko, Raiden Mei, and the others all twitched their lips in unison upon hearing Lin Mao address him that way.

I wanted to laugh, but I was too embarrassed to laugh because someone was there.

That would be impolite.

He could only manage a somewhat abstract smile, a smile that seemed to want to laugh but dared not go too far.

Even Bronya, who was usually indifferent to emotions, had a slight upturn at the corners of her mouth.

Kiana, on the other hand, made no attempt to hide her true self, grinning widely to reveal her clean, white teeth.

"..."
