Chapter 54: A Pleasant Night with Kaguya

Eientei, a wondrous place nestled deep within the Bamboo Forest of the Lost, is also Kaguya's current residence.

Passing through the Bamboo Forest of the Lost, one sees this rather antique-style mansion.

The structure of the house is in the style of ancient Japanese homes.

Perhaps due to Kaguya's power of eternity and the fleeting, the house doesn't look old; instead, it seems exceptionally well-maintained.

On the path of the mansion, several rabbit-eared girls are patrolling.

In a dark corner where no one is paying attention, two figures are quietly poking their heads out.

"...So why are we being so sneaky?"

Chu Bai asked, quite speechlessly.

Beneath him, Kaguya, who was also poking her head out to observe the situation, raised a finger to her lips:

"Shh, keep it down, or we'll be discovered."

"After all, I am a princess, and if the news of me bringing a man back to my room spreads, there will definitely be a lot of rumors!"

Chu Bai squinted his eyes:

"So you care about that? Can't I just cast an invisibility spell?"

"Don't underestimate these youkai rabbits."

Kaguya said:

"Although most of them aren't very smart, there's a rabbit named Reisen Udongein Inaba who is special."

"She's nominally Eirin's disciple, but her actual age is terrifying, and she can easily see through your invisibility spell... Wait, a rabbit is coming!"

Several youkai rabbit girls passed by, chatting.

Chu Bai and Kaguya quickly retreated back into the corner, hiding again.

Because the space was too narrow, their bodies were forced to press closely together.

Kaguya quickly activated the team voice chat, using her eyes to convey a message to Chu Bai:

(Don't move around, don't press on my hair.)

Chu Bai also made faces, relying on eye contact to reply:

(I can't help it, just bear with it, it's too narrow here.)

(Ugh, why aren't these rabbits leaving... Ah, you're pressing on it!)

Kaguya gently wiggled her body, trying to free her hair.

But with their bodies pressed together, the simple movement brought a huge shock to Chu Bai.

His expression changed slightly, and he quickly pressed down on Kaguya's shoulders:

(Dude, don't move.)

(Huh? Why?)

(...Don't ask, just stand still.)

(?)

Kaguya looked puzzled, but seeing Chu Bai's rather strange expression, she didn't wiggle her body again.

It wasn't until the group of youkai rabbits had passed and the surroundings were silent that the two squeezed out of their hiding place, both breathing a sigh of relief.

"We got away with it."

Kaguya's voice contained a hint of excitement, like a child experiencing a great adventure for the first time:

"Follow me, my room is in... Huh? What's wrong with you?"

"It's nothing, I just cramped my leg."

Chu Bai bent over slightly, his expression somewhat unnatural:

"It'll be fine in a bit..."

"Okay, then hurry and follow me."

Kaguya completely ignored these minor details, grabbing Chu Bai's arm and running forward.

Under her lead, Chu Bai passed through all kinds of corridors and avoided several youkai rabbits along the way.

Finally, they successfully arrived at Kaguya's bedroom.

...

...

"Excuse me."

Taking off his shoes, he entered the room.

What greeted him was a variety of anime-style posters.

However, the hygiene was quite impeccable, the bed was luxurious and soft, and there were no messy clothes on the floor, which was countless times better than a certain black and white house.

Kaguya beckoned Chu Bai to sit down and poured him two cups of hot tea.

As the warm current flowed into his body, the previous fatigue was swept away.

"So what should we do next?"

Chu Bai put down his teacup and asked:

"Since you want to experience staying up all night with a friend, you should have a corresponding plan, right?"

"Of course."

Kaguya mimicked Chu Bai's gesture, giving a thumbs up and confidently taking out a pile of game discs:

"These are all my collections, and many of them are suitable for playing together."

"With these games, we'll definitely be able to stay up all night!"

Chu Bai leaned closer to take a look and immediately gasped.

The types of these discs were quite diverse, ranging from the latest AAA masterpieces to classic nostalgic little games.

Whether they were well-known big productions or small-factory gems, they were all in her collection.

Chu Bai even felt that this pile of discs was the most valuable thing in the house.

Kaguya looked at Chu Bai's shocked expression with a smile. This act of showing off her collection in front of a friend really made her very happy:

"Oh, right, if you have fun playing with me tonight... you can take any set of these discs with you."

"Really?!"

Chu Bai's eyes lit up, and he quickly sat down next to Kaguya, picking up a controller:

"Then let's start the game! Kaguya, do you have a type you want to play?"

"Type... I still want to try a two-player cooperative survival game."

Kaguya thought for a moment and took out one of the discs:

"Let's try the recently released 'Heroic Spirit Sanctuary'. Although I've already beaten all the bosses alone, it's definitely more fun to survive together."

"No problem, then I'm yours tonight, feel free to command me!"

Chu Bai patted his chest, picked up the controller, and started to connect.

Before long, they were immersed in the world of the game.

...

...

"Weak, you're so weak."

"Now you know who's the boss, right?"

Accompanied by gorgeous special effects.

A prompt to successfully defeat the boss appeared on the screen.

Chu Bai and Kaguya cheered at the same time because this was a powerful boss they had defeated by over-leveling, an achievement achieved through superb skills and close cooperation.

But just at this moment, a knock suddenly sounded outside the room:

"Princess Kaguya, is there anyone in your room?"

"?!"

Chu Bai and Kaguya were startled.

Kaguya quickly gestured for Chu Bai to be silent, then cleared her throat and said:

"Of course not, I'm chatting with an online friend, it's an online voice call."

"What's wrong, Reisen? Is there something you need?"

It was Reisen who was speaking outside.

She said in a rather embarrassed tone:

"There are indeed some things, is it convenient to come into your room to discuss them in detail?"

Of course, it wasn't convenient!

Because there was a man hiding in the room!

Kaguya's expression changed, and she instantly thought of an excuse:

"I'm already tired, let's talk about it tomorrow if there's anything."

"Ugh... That won't do, Master Eirin will be back soon."

The weak Reisen said rather aggrievedly:

"This matter involves Master Eirin, so I must report it to you as soon as possible, please open the door."

Kaguya: "..."

Crap, she really had to open the door.

Because this matter involved Eirin, if she didn't cooperate, and Eirin came back and knew the situation here, she would easily notice the abnormality with her wisdom.

But if she opened the door and Reisen saw Chu Bai in the room, the matter would be exposed!

Moreover, this receiver rabbit's ability is to manipulate wavelengths, and her sensitivity is quite high.

Even if Chu Bai hid under the bed, she could easily find him.

If Reisen saw a man hiding under the bed at that time... it would be like dropping yellow mud into your crotch, even if it wasn't that, it would look like that!

Kaguya quickly gave Chu Bai a look.

Chu Bai also made a decisive decision, and his body skillfully hid under the bed.

...Wait, why use the word skillfully?

"That won't do, Reisen's ability is to manipulate wavelengths."

Kaguya said quickly using the team voice chat:

"She can even receive information from the moon, you definitely can't hide it from her like this."

Chu Bai gave a definite reply:

"Don't worry, as long as you don't give anything away, I won't be discovered."

"What I, Chu Bai, am best at is pursuing that glimmer of hope in extreme environments!"

Don't be so passionate at this time!

Kaguya took the time to complain.

Seeing that Chu Bai seemed to be hidden, Reisen knocked on the door again.
