BXBX NOVEL Chapter 414: 413, Return to the Game_1
Tina heard every bit of Su Yu’s conversation with Xue Wenli, aware that something significant was going on.
She smoothed her soft, long hair with worried eyes and asked, “Nemesis, do you need me to help with anything?”
“At this moment…Let’s return to your world,” Su Yu inhaled deeply and patted on Tina’s shoulder:
“After we return to your world, I will come to meet you, then we will go together to see Lady Bernina. After 12 hours, which is equivalent to 6 days in your world, you will come to ours; I need your help with an important matter.”
“Alright.” Tina obediently nodded, sat down on the sofa, put on her helmet and said: “So, we will meet later!”
A moment later, Tina’s body began to fade as her consciousness returned to the game.
Once Tina left, Su Yu took another deep breath, sat at Tina’s spot and logged into the game.
Meanwhile, he wondered—should he get a helmet for Tina too? In that case, she could travel freely between both worlds and wouldn’t have to wait for him to finish gaming to appear.
With that thought in mind, Su Yu’s conscious entered the game world.
…
Upon entering the game, Su Yu found himself in Alyssa’s bedchamber, which is where he had logged out the day before.
Alyssa was a hardworking and caring Empress. Her bedchamber was modestly decorated, almost devoid of any luxury items.
But modest didn’t mean plain; her bedchamber was still quite warm and comfortable.
It was evening in the game, and Alyssa wasn’t in her bedchamber. However, there was something ‘rolling around’ her bed—a Cat Morning Star.
Presently, it was rolling around, a football-sized Experience Crystal Stone in her arms as she rolled and absorbed the Spiritual Energy contained within the crystal.
The crystal used to be a cube; however, after having been rolled in so many times, it had assumed the shape of a complete sphere.
Seeing Su Yu’s return, Cat Morning Star was elated.
She tucked the crystal into her pocket dimension, leaped onto Su Yu’s shoulder, and lay down.
“Nemesis, you finally returned!” The Cat Morning Star rubbed her whiskers against Su Yu’s neck to express her dissatisfaction for not having seen him for so long.
Su Yu, feeling tickled by her whiskers, scratched her scruffy chin. “There was nothing I could do! The time restrictions for travelling between two worlds are stringent… By the way, where’s Alyssa?”
“You mentioned Alyssa…” The Cat Morning Star cocked her head in thought for a while and then replied: “At this hour, she would have just finished dinner and be dealing with political affairs in her study. Today should be no different.”
“Alright, then. Let’s go see her.”
Without wasting another word, Su Yu, with the Cat Morning Star on his shoulder, flew into the sky and headed for Alyssa’s study.
…
Below the Goldfinch Royal Palace, a forbidden sky magic array of very high specifications has been built. Even the sixth-rank sacred domain expert found it tough to fly in the palace.
However, Alyssa made an exception for Su Yu by granting him the authority to fly within the palace, allowing him to fly freely toward his study.
The palace guards didn’t dare to interfere. Who would dare to stop the future prince?
With no opposition in sight, Su Yu quickly arrived at Alyssa’s study and flew in through the window.
Alyssa’s study was a palace located at the northeastern corner of the Royal Palace, overlooking a large pond and housing a vast collection of books. She fancied quiet and peaceful surroundings and enjoyed working here.
She was seen dealing with political affairs, her eyebrows furrowed in concentration.
When Alyssa saw Su Yu and the Cat Morning Star enter through the window, her face lightened up. “Nemesis, you’re back!”
“Hmm, I am.” Looking at the tall stack of letters on her desk, Su Yu expressed his concern: “Don’t always feel that every Empire issue needs your personal attention. You can promote some reliable talents to help you with the governance. Otherwise, your tasks are really burdensome.”
“It’s okay. Now is a key period for the Empire. We just need to pull through,” Alyssa put down her pen, stretched lazily, and turned her head to look at the calendar on the wall.
After seeing the marked date on the calendar, she said to Su Yu with a smile, “The day after tomorrow, you are going with Xi’er-Sylvanas to the Pandamen Empire, correct?”
Su Yu looked at the calendar and nodded in agreement, “Yes.”
“Why don’t you help me deal with political affairs?” Alyssa invited with a smile: “Let me see how well a person from another world like you can manage political affairs?”
The Cat Morning Star on Su Yu’s shoulder extended her claws towards his head, signalling him to nod in agreement.
However, Su Yu showed no intention of agreeing, and said uncomfortably, “I’m afraid I can’t do that.”
“Why not?” Alyssa looked at Su Yu with confusion: “Don’t you want to show off your talents? Show me the ‘ Foreign Minister’s’ level?”
“No, that’s not the issue,” Su Yu stepped forward and gave Alyssa a shoulder massage.
Alyssa had previously enjoyed the couple of massages Su Yu gave her since they were quite different from her world. She closed her eyes and asked while enjoying the massage, “Then what is it?”
“It’s because of Tina. She has returned home.” Su Yu answered honestly.
“Oh?” A sudden stiffness enveloped Alyssa’s shoulder muscles. “Two days ago, I received a message from the border guards stating that Tina and her family had returned. How did you come to know about it, Nemesis?”
Su Yu gave a bitter smile and answered, “Tina is now able to enter our world just like the Cat Morning Star. She told me herself.”
“What?!!!” Alyssa’s voice suddenly rose as she turned her head, her big eyes staring at him intently.
The Cat Morning Star also turned around, looking at Su Yu in disbelief.
Tina could actually step into Su Yu’s world?! There was a whirl in Alyssa’s mind.
This feeling was like being victorious in a group fight in a MOBA game but suddenly realizing someone stole your family jewels.
The Cat Morning Star stretched out her claws on Su Yu’s head and anxiously asked, “Speak up quickly, what is going on?”
“Uh, it’s like this…” Su Yu gathered his thoughts and then recounted the story of how Tina had visited the real world.
In the end, Su Yu also mentioned his plan to go to newbie village with Tina to meet Bernina. He couldn’t help with her political affairs because of that.
Alyssa’s grip tightened on Su Yu’s hand as she sank into a silence.
For their feelings towards Nemesis, she and Tina had always been competitors.
A while ago, Tina decided to travel around the world leaving Su Yu behind and Alyssa’s winning odds were over 90%.
She originally thought that her wedding with Nemesis was likely to happen, however, Tina suddenly turned the tables by appearing in Nemesis’ world!
In Su Yu’s world, Tina could stand beside Su Yu in battle, while she could only stand aside and watch!
“I must find a way to retrieve the situation.” Alyssa thought to herself.
