Sweet daily life of Little Tanuki and Qin Che in Love and Deep Space

Seeing your surprised expression, Qin Che couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Now you can actually say that you can hold your cat's tail in the air."

After you gave him a coquettish look, your eyes shone with an adorable light.

"Qin Che! Let me see your tail!" You raised your hand and wrapped it around his waist, reaching for his long tail.

A magnificent long tail swept across your palm.

"You're still a long-haired cat!" You grabbed the tail, and the smooth, shiny fur was just too tempting.

"Hmm..." Qin Che hummed softly, and the tail slipped away from your hands just like that.

"Did I hurt you?" you asked, somewhat flustered.

To everyone's surprise, he just coughed twice and said, "No, I'm just not used to having a tail."

You looked at him with some suspicion, but he seemed to have no intention of continuing the topic.

"It's rare to play this kind of game with you, I'm actually quite looking forward to it." You didn't pursue the matter further, while enthusiastically playing with your tail. "By the way, do you think that playing this kind of adventure game is too childish for the dignified leader of Dark Point?"

"While this does seem like a game of make-believe, my gaming experience depends on my partner. It looks like you won't let me down, right?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Che stepped onto the carriage first, turned back to look at you, and stretched out a hand to you.

"Get in the car, our game is about to begin."

The carriage took you to a castle.

The magnificent bells rang out, and warm, pale golden sunlight slowly poured in through the castle's stained-glass windows, like a soft veil, gently illuminating the huge and spectacular mural on the inner wall.

The dragon in the mural is so lifelike that it seems as if it could leap out of the wall at any moment.

Its enormous body hovered above the castle's spire, its wings spread so wide they blotted out the sky.

Its ferocious face is full of majesty and domineering power, making people shudder.

The dragon opened its blood-red maw, spewing forth raging flames as it charged straight at the crowd on the moat.

The flames drew a blazing arc in the air, carrying the power to destroy everything, mercilessly devouring everything around them.

People were terrified and fled in all directions, trying to escape this sudden disaster.

Their faces showed despair and fear, filled with awe and helplessness towards the evil dragon.

The king, dressed in magnificent attire, sat on his throne, looking down at you with a solemn expression.

His voice was deep and resonant as he slowly recounted: "...A few days ago, the astrologer revealed the oracle to everyone, that the dragon Skag had reappeared in the world. This time, Skag, which had been lying dormant for many years, seemed to have become even stronger, even stealing the 'Undying Golden Crow Feather' from the dragon..."

"'The Feather of the Immortal Golden Crow'? The feather of the legendary divine bird that represents the sun?"

A soft chuckle reached your ears, almost imperceptible, and you turned your head.

Standing beside you, Qin Che remained calm, casually meeting your gaze.

You ask in confusion, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing. You look even cuter when you're serious with those cat ears on."

Qin Che spoke softly, and he even leaned closer so you could hear him clearly.

You reach out to pinch his thigh in annoyance, only to find that even in the game, his muscles are so firm that you can't get a grip on them.

You could only poke him twice before awkwardly withdrawing your hand.

He even blew on it before putting it to his lips.

Ouch... Even the pain feels so real.
