emmm...

Bai Ye was silent for a while.

In fact, his physique was too strong, and with the passive blessing of the "Life Atlas"... even for Xiao Ai, it was still not enough, and he even restrained himself a lot.

"white night!"

Through the mental link, Bronya also received it synchronously and couldn't help but scold.

But Bai Ye's thoughts were still a little distracted: with his physique, who could possibly endure this? Then, unconsciously... Bronya's figure flashed by.

"Emm..."

For a moment, both sides were silent. It seemed like… this wasn't possible, was it? No, no, no, this won't do! My moral integrity, you better hold on to it!

On the other side, Bronya also suppressed the urge in her heart. "Ahem~ Okay, Bronya will be leaving soon, so please be careful here, Bai Ye."

"If Bronya notices anything unusual..."

——You’re dead!

After a few words, Bronya quickly cut off contact. While they'd tease each other sometimes, when it came to getting serious... well, it took a little mental preparation.

……

In Osaka, there is a slightly old wooden house - "First Star"

The shop has been selling okonomiyaki for a long time, and the whole place has an old-fashioned feel. But the most important thing is... this is the shop opened by the Moroboshi family.

When Bronya arrived and Ikki and the others were all there, she raised her hand to greet them, then looked at Moroboshi Yudai, "Muroboshi, are you trying to attract customers for your place again?"

"Ahaha~"

Moroboshi scratched his head and smiled nonchalantly, "I'm a businessman from Naniwa. How can I let go of something profitable? But Bai Ye didn't come this time?"

"That guy is with his girlfriend. After all, these trivial matters are not as important as his girlfriend."

"Hey! That Bai Ye kid already has a girlfriend?!! Damn it, he didn't even tell me." Zhu Xing couldn't help but mutter a few words and turned his gaze to Bronya.

"It's a secret~"

Bronya raised her index finger in a hushed gesture. She walked past Moroboshi and into the shop. "Xiaomei, how are you doing lately?"

——Welcome~

In the store, Xiaomei, wearing a kimono and an apron, took out a small notebook and showed it to Bronya, smiling at her calmly.

"You look pretty good."

Bronya nodded and rubbed Mei's head. Although not as professional as Wu Zi, her level was still there. "Okay, Mei, it's the same as always."

——Please wait.

Still showing the small notebook.

Bronya said nothing. Without having experienced someone else's suffering, what right did she have to offer advice? Words were pointless; such matters required timing.

After waiting for a while, a bowl of okonomiyaki with a rich sauce aroma was served on the table. "It tastes familiar as expected. Mei, prepare another takeout for Bronya."

After enjoying lunch, Bronya took Ai's share and prepared to leave. However, before that...

"Speaking of which, did Moroboshi tell Xiaomei?"

???

Xiaomei tilted her head, looking confused.

"It seems not. Moroboshi's next opponent is Bronya."

Bronya placed a hand on Mei's shoulder, leaned in a little closer, and whispered, "Bronya knows that Mei is still struggling, but he has been waiting for Mei for too long."

After patting her twice, Bronya walked over and said, "Muroboshi, Bronya is leaving first. There's still the game tomorrow, so Moroboshi needs to get enough rest."

"Isn't that natural?"

While helping out with the business in the store, Moroboshi greeted Bronya with high morale.

……

Back at the hotel, Bronya didn't shy away from anything and opened the door of the room directly. After all, it was her.

"Is Xiao Ai still awake?"

Putting down the packed lunch, Bronya naturally took care of everything in the room and opened the window for ventilation. "It seems that Bai Ye was a little late last night."

"After all, this is Xiao Ai..."

As they were talking, Bai Ye also stood up to help. He could sense that Xiao Ai had actually woken up...

Maybe he was too shy, so he was pretending to be asleep.

Bai Ye and Bronya didn't need to communicate, and they picked up the clothes scattered on the ground in tacit understanding.

"Good morning, Xiao Ai."

A unique sound. Bronya prepared clean clothes for Xiao Ai and placed them within easy reach.

Then, she turned sideways and sat on the edge of the bed. Her fair little hand brushed through her naturally falling long hair and she leaned down to Edwards, "It's time to get up~"

"..."

no response.

"It's not good to deceive yourself~"

The warm breath blew on Edelweiss's ears, making her cheeks unconsciously red.

"Forget it, Bronya, you're welcome."

A pair of small hands reached under the sheets, Bronya picked up Edwards by the waist, and walked into the bathroom in a princess-like manner, "Little Ai, please pay attention to personal hygiene."

"It's you, this guy..."

With no other options left, Edelweiss finally "woke up." She opened her mouth to scold him, but...

Although she knew she was alone, it was not appropriate for her to rush towards Bronya. Her voice gradually faded away. "Okay, okay, I can do it myself..."

A faint struggle.

It's too embarrassing to ask others for help with something like taking a bath! But it seemed that the injury was involved, and Edwards frowned slightly.

"It seems that Xiao Ai can't do it herself."

Bronya lowered her head and rested her forehead against Edelweiss's. Her words were so gentle that she could feel his breath.

"Well…"

A soft cry like that of a small animal.

Unconsciously, Edelweiss curled up, then stopped struggling and allowed Bronya to slowly lower her into the bathtub.

emmm...

"Sure enough, there's no place for me."

On the other side, Bai Ye flipped through the packed lunch, and sure enough, his portion was missing again. "Never mind, it's a small problem. Let's go eat something first~"

60. The Seven Star Sword Festival begins!

The Seven Star Sword Festival attracted so many people that the entire city glowed with an extremely warm glow.

However, because of Xiao Ai's identity, Bai Ye couldn't go on a date with her in public.

It’s usually fine, but at this critical juncture, emmm… who knows who has sneaked in, there must be someone who knows Xiao Ai among them, so I can only stay out of the spotlight.

So Bai Ye stayed in the hotel all day and told Edwards stories about his past.

——Sometimes, what matters is not what you are doing, but who you are with!

Even though the date was not going to happen, Bai Ye, Bronya and Edwards still felt extremely warm staying in the hotel.

……

The next day:

In the early morning, people flocked towards the bay like a tide. Even the height of summer could not dampen people's enthusiasm.

emmm...

(There was actually an opening ceremony. But I looked at it and it was just for padding the word count, so I deleted it.)

◆The 62nd Seven Stars Sword and Martial Arts Festival has officially begun!

The competition is divided into four divisions: ABCD, with a total of sixteen matches, four in each group.

Probably because of Bai Ye, the personnel grouping is slightly different compared to the original.

First game of Zone A:

Yudai Moroboshi VS Bronya!

"First, the one emerging from the red gate is the winner of the previous tournament! A third-year student at Muku Academy, Moroboshi Yudai!!!"

"He's a hero from the West! His spear skills are extraordinary and genius..." (In short, it's just bragging, so I'll skip it)

"He had an unfortunate accident before the primary school league final elimination match."

"He was severely injured, his legs crippled, enough to end his knightly career, so he once sadly left the path of knighthood. But now..."

——“This man is back!”

"He overcame a severe injury that prevented him from walking again and climbed from the depths of hell to the pinnacle of this nation!"

"The glory and setbacks of chivalry, a man who knows everything but remains unyielding! 'Seven Star Sword King' Moroboshi Yudai!"

"Today, he will challenge for the first time in the history of the Seven Star Sword Festival to win the championship twice in a row. He will once again descend upon the battle circle——!!!"

The next moment, thunderous cheers shook the earth!

“Ah—Star!!!”

“Ah—Star!!!”

"..."

Carrying such huge expectations, Moroboshi Yudai manifested his spiritual suit "Tiger King" on the field, raising it high as if piercing the sky!

——Leave everything to me!

Although he didn't say anything, he had fully expressed his meaning, and the atmosphere in the venue reached its peak at this moment.

“Oooooohh ...

Immediately afterwards…

"Following Moroboshi Yudai, the blue gate has also opened!"

"Although his reputation is obscure and everything is shrouded in mystery, there is one person you've undoubtedly heard of—Pharmacist Wuzi."

"She is Yakushi Kiriko's younger sister, and together with another person, Byakuya, they are known as the 'Twins of Lightning', 'Yinlei' Bronya!"

"It's worth mentioning that it was Yakushi Kiriko who treated Moroboshi Yudai's serious injuries. And according to rumors, Bronya was also involved."

"So, is this moment a fateful reunion?"

To be honest, when Bronya appeared on the stage, although the cheers in the venue were still loud, they were indeed a little weaker.

"A fateful reunion..."

Bronya, dressed in her Secondary Silver Wings outfit, slowly walked over to Moroboshi Yudai and asked, "It seems so?"

"I'm sorry, Moroboshi, but your journey ends here."

"That's not possible."

Zhu Xing took up stance with his spear.

——Looking down on all directions! A strong intimidating aura made even the people in the audience suffocate.
