Really? I'm fighting the Dark Emperor.

"The elders replied that the earliest they can send support is tomorrow night." Ruibusi was so sleepy that she almost fell asleep leaning against him. Miya Xing didn't want to push her away, but he also didn't want to let her lean on him like that.

He cautiously nudged her arm: "Why don't you go lie down on the table for a while?"

“No,” she yawned groggily, “I’m not sleepy.”

I strained to open my eyes, unsure whether I was trying to convince myself or others: "I'm really not sleepy."

Then he yawned again.

Oh, she doesn't want to sleep on the table.

"Okay, you're not sleepy." Miya Xing didn't know what she was insisting on, so she moved her chair a little further away.

"Rui Bu Si, who isn't sleepy, do you remember the classmate who sat at the table next to you all night?"

"Who?"

Looking around, every face...

I can't see it clearly, it's all blurry.

There shouldn't be any students in Moe Academy that she doesn't know.

When performing good deeds and accumulating more merit, most students, like her, would... well, it's about getting genuine gratitude... and some people's gratitude... I'm so sleepy...

That student is no longer sitting here.

The gradually shutting-down brain spent a long time processing Miya Star's words.

After finishing, Rui Bu Si said with dissatisfaction, "Then why are you asking me now?"

He turned the Rubik's Cube in his hand, and before he could speak, he swiftly caught the person who was about to fall to the ground: "Why don't you go and sleep on the table for a while? Make do for one night, and if all goes well, you can go back to the dormitory tomorrow."

She straightened her limp body, trying to keep it in a neutral position rather than leaning to one side, and said with displeasure, "You secretly used your mind-reading ability again!"

...There's no need for mind reading; her disgust for sleeping on the table was written all over her face.

"I didn't use mind reading. Try to sense it again."

The other person then naturally closed their eyes, which were already too heavy to open.

After a while, when Miya Xing tried to throw her on the table to sleep, she suddenly opened her eyes as if she had come back from the dead: "Okay, you really didn't, I'll reluctantly forgive you."

"...Then I thank you for your generosity."

"I didn't see you for half a day, I thought you had run into some trouble." Ukunana's condition was much better than before.

Amusement glances swirled between them. Miya Xing raised her hands slightly in surrender, trying to prove her innocence.

"I'm innocent! I've been doing the right thing the whole time."

Rui Bu Si leaned against him, muttering something inaudible.

Under Miya Xing's pleading gaze, and after watching the commotion to her heart's content, Ukunana helped the person up: "I'll take her to sleep."

As if touched on some key word, the person being supported bounced up like a spring: "I'm not sleeping!"

Then he fell into her arms.

Ukunana nearly lost her footing.

She looked at Mi Yaxing in surprise, as if she had expected this. Mi Yaxing helplessly shrugged, her eyes filled with a hint of schadenfreude.

Based on her limited experience, all it takes to lull Ulala to sleep is a short story from a storybook—which she doesn't have now.

Although she didn't have much experience taking care of people, she knew that it was best to go along with what Ruipusi said in this situation: "We're not going to sleep, we're going to... um, defeat the dragon."

Helping her walk towards the rest area, Rui Bu Si held her arm tightly: "You smell so good, you're so soft... Don't think you can touch me like that!"

"I do not……"

This time, Rabsi really woke up: "Why do we need to defeat the evil dragon?"

"Huh?" Ukunana didn't react for a moment.

"The dragon should defeat the knight!"

She suspected the other person might have drunk some kind of bad potion: "Should Nurse Big Sweetie check them out?"

"Then they'll kidnap the princess, steal the king's treasure, and build their nest in the glittering vault!"

She seemed completely absorbed in her own world. She let go of Ukunana's arms, pushed her away, and stumbled forward, rubbing her eyes and not quite conscious. "I feel like swearing."

"No, I'm sleepy, I should go to sleep."

She stumbled along, grabbing the first blanket she encountered. The person she took from was probably still half asleep, so she shifted her body and thoughtfully shared half of her blanket with her.

Ukunana: ...

Hopefully, they won't start fighting when they wake up tomorrow.

The night outside the shelter wasn't very pleasant, and Eric waited a long time in the darkness before they finally came out.

"The Dark Clan hasn't made a move. Did you encounter any trouble inside?"

Ukunana glared at Miya Xing, but before she could speak, Miya Xing suddenly covered her chest with her hands in a protective gesture, hiding behind Eric, and said in a high-pitched voice, "Don't think you can lay a hand on me like that!"

"Mysterious Star!"

"Alright, alright," seeing that she seemed really angry, Miya Xing regained her composure and gestured to Eric that they could talk about this later. "Let's discuss serious matters now."

Receiving the signal, Eric didn't ask any further questions. Ginny and Ulala suddenly appeared from somewhere: "What a coincidence, you're all here."

Why are you two together so late at night instead of sleeping?

“What a coincidence, aren’t the five of us running into each other now?” Genny didn’t understand why Ukunana was looking at him with such a strange gaze.

While on patrol, he encountered a classmate who looked suspicious. On the way to catch him, he ran into Ulala. Between chasing him and protecting Naya, Naya was obviously more important.

"I only chased after that classmate because I saw him acting suspiciously."

“Ulala, this kind of dangerous thing…” All three companions’ eyes fell on her. Ukunana paused and softened her tone, “And Lieyan Jianni, it’s too dangerous for anyone to act alone.”

“Oh,” Kenny didn’t seem to take that seriously; he was more curious about something else. “What are the three of you planning to do here?”

“Perhaps it’s the same goal as yours,” Miya Star held up what she was holding. “I put a magical tracker on that classmate. Now let’s listen together and see what the classmate who deliberately took down the Forest Star is planning to do.”
