Chapter 227

The Princess-sama in Eirin Yagokoro's mouth was naturally the world-famous Kaguya-hime from three hundred years ago, the Moon Princess who had fooled everyone in the world.

And Yukari Yakumo was actually quite suspicious of whether Jia Ji had other ways he wasn't using, and had come to Eientei specifically to find that Kaguya. After all, the chat records just now had explained everything.

And she and Yuuka Kazami were just the thugs he had tricked into coming. If anything went wrong, he would directly snatch the princess, who was said to be a beauty who could topple a country.

"What kind of person do you take me for!"

Jia Ji was between laughter and tears. Was this the image he had in their eyes?

However, it was understandable for Eirin Yagokoro to think so. After all, the five most powerful people among the ground people in the past had given everything to marry Kaguya-hime, but their weight and capacity were far less than this man who had killed his way to the gate of Eientei.

The young man named "Jia Ji" in front of her was only about twenty, but he possessed a power level far beyond his age, and the two great youkai he brought with him could also bring her significant pressure.

Just the three of them belonged to the absolute top tier on this ground. In terms of the standards of ground people, their strength and influence were barely enough to match Princess Kaguya.

And a man coming here with a request, besides coming for Kaguya, what other answer could there be?

And after the conversation just now, Eirin Yagokoro's first impression of him was not bad; there was a sense of inexplicable closeness.

"I have nothing to do with Kaguya-hime this time. I'm only here for you!" Jia Ji rubbed his forehead and said decisively.

Yukari Yakumo followed Jia Ji's gaze and carefully examined Eirin Yagokoro's attire... that conspicuous red and blue outfit was dotted with many stars, half nebula purple and half red, and the hem of the skirt was surrounded by Bagua patterns of the same color scheme.

The upper left body was printed with the Big Dipper, which everyone was familiar with, and behind Eirin Yagokoro was the Southern Dipper, which governed "life".

There was actually someone in the world who could handle this outfit that combined mystery and beauty so well. The angle of the pattern and the color number were carefully designed; otherwise, if one wasn't careful, the impact would become a sense of disharmony.

The blonde boundary youkai felt for the first time in her life that she had met an opponent in dressing.

Isn't that right...

The Brain of the Moon also noticed Yukari Yakumo's rather strange gaze, frowned imperceptibly, and thoughts flashed through her mind. Finally, only one most likely idea remained—

"Could it be that you are planning to propose to me?!"

Jia Ji: Hm?

Eirin Yagokoro... my Moon brain thrombosis!

"Damn... of course not! I am a pre-marital love-onlyist!"

Jia Ji was almost laughed out by this sentence. Endure, endure, even if it's such a funny thing, you can't laugh!

Ah, don't let the dice goddess who doesn't know if she exists jump out and make a mess.

Even if she was impeccable in appearance, Eirin Yagokoro's sky-high age, calculated purely by age rather than psychology and wisdom, made even Yukari Yakumo look like a youthful girl of seventeen forever in front of her.

"Let's just say it straight... I'm here to ask you to save someone. Compared to the beauty of Kaguya Houraisan, I value the wisdom of the Sage of the Moon more."

Hurriedly interrupting the love-comedy-like development, Jia Ji stated his intention. No, he jumped up directly, like a Disney princess from nowhere starting to sing:

"1, 2, 1, 2, 3 Eirin! Eirin! Help me, Eirin (Eirin! Eirin! Help me, Eirin-rin-rin-rin-rin-rin!)"

Whether it was Yuuka Kazami, Yukari Yakumo, Tewi Inaba, or Eirin Yagokoro, all of them revealed indescribably troubled expressions under this strange rhythm and lyrics.

————————

In the room belonging to Eirin, the light was bright, simple, and tidy. The bookshelves were filled with all kinds of bottles and jars, but there was not a trace of moldy smell. Instead, a faint fragrance of herbs permeated the air, a scent that seeped into the heart.

This was the place where Eirin Yagokoro prepared medicine, and also the "operating room" where she treated patients. Although no patient had come to find her until just now, only some rabbit youkai had been caught in for experiments over the past few hundred years.

However, at least some of the patients' families had come for a consultation now.

"In other words, you came to find me for that girl named Yuyuko Saigyouji?" The Sage of the Moon restored her initial elegant posture. Her expression was calm, but the depths of her eyes seemed to become interested.

"Then, what can I get?"

Eirin's neatly combed silver-white hair looked exceptionally beautiful in the sunlight, and her curiosity as a researcher was burning fiercely.

Whether it was this topic or the reward, it was not simple.

Just as Jia Ji said at the beginning, he was here to negotiate. Of course, it was impossible to come empty-handed and just open his mouth to ask Eirin Yagokoro to help him.

Money, weapons, interesting strange objects, treasures... none of them.

Just one piece of information—information that the youkai on the ground were preparing to attack the moon surface.

…………

After Jia Ji and Eirin Yagokoro reached a consensus.

"Seriously, do you have no thoughts about that 【Kaguya-hime】 at all?"

Yukari Yakumo asked secretly. She didn't believe that Jia Ji would let go of such an opportunity. Since he was already here, how could he miss it?

Toppling countries and cities, peerless beauty... all the words that could be used to describe "beauty" and "red face" had been crowned on Kaguya Houraisan by the world, as if all other women had to lower their heads when they saw her.

Yukari Yakumo prided herself on not losing to anyone in appearance, so how could she not be curious about Kaguya?

"Haha, I didn't expect that Kaguya-hime in your impression is like this. It's completely different in Eientei... If you have the courage, Yukari, just open a gap and take a peek."

Having said that, Jia Ji put his hands in his trouser pockets, puffed out his chest, tilted his head, and before Yukari Yakumo could open a gap to peek, he kicked open the bedroom door of Kaguya-hime, the peerless beauty whose fame had spread throughout the country.

"Bamboo Forest Game Commentary, Kaguya Houraisan, it's you, right?"

Others might not know, but didn't he know?

Otaku girl, heavy game lover, Kaguya-ojousama who couldn't take care of herself, immortal, actually flat NEET, black long straight sect backbone player...

Still the same sentence, if Jia Ji were a youthful daily high school male protagonist, playing games or falling in love every day, and saving the world was just a casual thing, then he might really try to conquer this NEET princess. But now...

Arhat Strike stance set, external chat panel activated.

"Peng, come out and let me treat you to an Infinite Wang Ba Fist."

Just take it as using Hokuto Shinken on her for the sake of his sister Hong, whom he had never met!
