Chapter 369

After all, she had cried until she was a tear-stained mess during the day.

"I say, my dear Supreme Guardian."

"It's getting late, and the chill of the night is nothing to trifle with."

"Let's hurry home."

Pfft!

Who is 'we' with you?

Who is your 'dear'?

Cocolia muttered inwardly.

"If you really like it?"

"Once this incident settles down, I'll accompany you to see enough of it during the day, how about that?"

"It's already so dark, aren't we going back to sleep?"

Lu Shu urged again.

Ah, pfft!

This lecher!

Hearing this, a layer of crimson instantly dyed Cocolia's cheeks, and her eyes flickered with an indescribable panic and shyness.

She lived alone in her residence.

Bronya was not her biological daughter, only an adopted one.

And she herself had never had a partner by her side.

If she were to agree to Lu Shu going back with her now, that subtle awkwardness and discomfort would be difficult for her to handle for the moment.

"You..."

"Must you go back with me?"

"Is it necessary?"

Lu Shu smiled slightly.

"Of course, I must follow you closely and protect you 24 hours a day."

"Lest you be bewitched by the Stellaron again."

"And turn into an LSP form."

24-hour protection?

And close-contact?

I think you're the one who wants to turn into an LSP form.

Cocolia spat lightly in her heart.

"Sigh~, forget it!"

"Just come back with me."

After hesitating for a moment, Cocolia spoke slowly.

To be honest, she couldn't quite hold back either.

Ever since Lu Shu arrived.

No!

It should be said that ever since Lu Shu laid down that strange power, she could no longer hear the seductive, bewitching sounds of the Stellaron in her ears.

"Speaking of which, I have to thank you."

"The 'stranger's' voice has suddenly vanished from my ears, and the burden on my shoulders has inexplicably lightened quite a bit."

She still remembered.

When she first took on the position of 'Supreme Guardian', the previous Supreme Guardian had looked at her deeply.

In that gaze, there was both worry and hope.

Over these twenty-plus years, she had also understood the meaning behind the previous Guardian's dying gaze.

However, it was already too late.

During those first few nights, whenever it was deep and quiet, she would curl up at the head of her cold bed, hugging her knees.

Lonely, helpless.

When the 'Stellaron' rang in her ears time and time again, she had been angry, disdainful, and had resisted, but in the end... she chose to compromise.

"Sounds like a good thing, so, are you worried about the 'Interastral Peace Corporation'?"

"Rest assured."

"Based on my judgment of the 'Interastral Peace Corporation', it's likely Topaz who will come."

"Jarilo-VI is just a bad debt, a rotten debt."

"Not to mention the compound interest over these 700 years, even the 280-year contract for that huge sum is difficult for the current Belobog to pay back."

"Even if they annexed this planet, the IPC wouldn't be able to recover this rotten debt without a hundred years."

"Hmm? That's true."

"The contract was signed for repayment at 280 years; them not coming is their own business, purely their own misjudgment, and has nothing to do with you."

"You've cut off contact, and can't even fly off the planet, so how can they find you for repayment?"

"As long as you insist on this, you can just return the amount for 280 years."

"You can completely refuse to acknowledge the remaining 420 years of debt."

Did Lu Shu suddenly remember something?

The contract was indeed signed for repayment at 280 years.

You didn't come, that's not our business.

We don't acknowledge those extra 420 years.

There are rules and regulations, let's not break the rules, alright.

"Now that you put it that way? Hmm... the burden on my shoulders has suddenly lightened by more than half."

Cocolia smiled.

Phew~

Finally, there was one thing that could make her breathe a sigh of relief.

Cocolia's private residence.

It wasn't large.

Hmm, but that's relative.

On the edge of the Qliphoth Fort, in an extremely secluded location, a detached 'small villa' came into view.

The footprint was estimated to be about 300 ping.

Outside, several Silvermane Guards stood with upright postures.

Seeing the Supreme Guardian return, they immediately stood straight, raised their hands, and pounded their chests with fists 'thump thump'.

"Supreme Guardian, you have returned."

"Yes, thank you for your hard work."

After Cocolia's figure disappeared, the group of guards whispered to each other.

"No way?"

"Lady Cocolia... actually brought a man back?"

"Hmm, this..."

"We won't be silenced, will we?"

"What are you thinking?"

"Exactly, the 'Supreme Guardian' has never had a partner."

"Maybe no one could catch her eye."

"This is the 'Knight of the Dragon', he is a good match for Lady Cocolia."

"In any case, Belobog is going to change."

The group of guards did not recognize Lu Shu.
