Chapter 54 Becoming a Big Brother
Chapter 54 Becoming a Big Brother
On the way back to school, considering that there was no way to hide Nina, Shichen handed her over to Nangong Nayue and had her teleport home.
Nangong Nayue wasn't wary of Nina, perhaps because she didn't seem like a threat.
After teleporting Nina back, Nangong Nayue asked about the time: "Speaking of which, why did you suddenly come to this place? Did you know there was Sage's Blood here?"
"More or less," Shi Chen honestly admitted.
"Then why did you say you accidentally wandered into Itogami Island? You lied to me before?" Nangong Nayue said coldly.
"I'm not lying to you. Accidentally entering Itogami Island and knowing that there is sage blood here are not contradictory," Toki replied confidently.
"Hmph~ That would be best."
"Hehe~ I wouldn't dare lie to Yue-chan." Shichen leaned closer to her, grinning mischievously.
"..." Nangong Nayue pursed her lips, but didn't move away from him. She changed the subject and asked, "What's the deal with those stray cats here?"
"Oh, she was adopted by a little girl named Natsumi Yase," Shichen replied casually.
"Hmm? A little girl?" Nangong Nayue looked at him with unfriendly eyes.
"...How could you misunderstand again!" Shi Chen cried out, "She's just a primary school student. A person can't, or at least shouldn't."
"Ha~ But aren't you a vampire now? You're not even human anymore."
"Natsuki-chan, don't slander me! I'm still human; being a vampire is just my power."
"...How did you do that?" Nangong Nayue asked, frowning.
She could naturally see the extraordinary timing and confirm that he was indeed human, which was incredible.
He is human, yet possesses vampire abilities, and is even at the level of a True Ancestor.
Unheard of.
"It's very simple," Shi Chen said smugly. "My physique is special."
The God Body is compatible with the True Ancestor Body, which is equivalent to devouring it and absorbing its power. Therefore, although he is not a vampire, he possesses the abilities of a vampire.
It's a pity that I don't have much ability yet.
The most direct ability of the True Ancestor is his extremely destructive familiars, but he currently has no familiars, so he is not a True Ancestor at all, merely a figurehead.
"Is your physique special...?"
Shichen's constitution is special, which is obvious to everyone. He has an extraordinary temperament and a perfect body, which can make people relax and be vigilant.
However, Nangong Nayue did not intend to ask any more questions: "Since you have a special constitution, let's see how your learning talent is tonight."
"I promise you won't be disappointed!"
"Hmph~ I hope so... By the way, what does that little girl you mentioned look like?"
"..."
"Say it!"
"Uh...like a saint."
"The Holy Maiden..."
"What's with that look you're giving me, Nazuki-chan? I was just telling the truth! It's not that I have any feelings for her! You can see for yourself after school!"
"You even arranged to meet her after school?"
"..."
In the afternoon, after school, Shichen first bought some snacks for the kittens, and then went to the back hill of the school by himself.
The ruins haven't changed much, except that the relief sculpture is gone.
Meow~
The kittens had already remembered the time, and when they saw him coming, Xiaoxue led the way and ran towards him.
Shi Chen, showing favoritism, squatted down and picked up Xiao Xue. Unconcerned about getting dirty, he rubbed his face against Xiao Xue's fluffy head and asked affectionately, "Xiao Xue, did you miss me?"
"Meow~" Little Xue was being rubbed against by him obediently, her big round eyes staring at him with a pair of amber vertical pupils, responding in a childish voice.
"You really missed me, huh?" Shi Chen chuckled.
He couldn't understand Xiaoxue's words, but since she didn't resist, it must mean she agreed.
Meow~
"I brought you some delicious food~ but you have to wait for Xia Yin to come before you can eat it."
Meow~
"Good job, good job, so well-behaved~"
"You, so you really like cats?" Suddenly, Nangong Nayue's voice rang out.
Shi Chen wasn't embarrassed at all. He turned to look at the petite girl who had suddenly appeared behind him and replied with a smile, "Aren't kittens adorable?"
"Hmph~ Let me make it clear beforehand, we can't keep pets at home."
"I know, but... about my family." Shi Chen winked at Nangong Nayue.
"Is there a problem?" Nangong Nayue glared at him.
"Of course, no problem."
"He's getting more and more unreliable," Nangong Nayue sighed.
"Who told you to be so eloquent?" Shi Chen retorted.
"Shut up!"
"Yes, yes, yes... So, Tsuki-chan, do you like kittens? Would you like to hold one?"
"I'm not interested in small animals," Nangong Nayue replied calmly, arms crossed.
"Really? How about I hug you?"
"What? You've gained magic power, and your courage has grown too?" Nangong Nayue squinted at Shichen.
"No, I've always been this bold. I was just saying what I really thought."
"Hmph! Keep dreaming. Maybe there's hope in your dreams."
"Okay, I'll have this dream tonight."
"..."
Nangong Nayue ignored him and turned her back to him. Just then, she saw an incredibly pure and holy little girl walking towards her.
"Is that the girl you were talking about?"
"Hmm? Natsune's here." Shichen stood up, holding Yuki, and waved to Natsune.
Noticing the time, Natsune Yase smiled, her expression clean and pure.
Nangong Nayue watched Yese Xiayin walk over expressionlessly: "You really weren't exaggerating, this little girl really is like a saint."
"Right, right?"
"What are you so smug about?" Nangong Nayue turned around and glared at him, annoyed.
"Ahem." Shi Chen immediately suppressed his smile.
"Teacher Shi." At this moment, Natsumi Yase also walked up to the two of them.
"Xia Yin, you've arrived."
"Um, who is this?" Natsumi Yase asked timidly, looking at Nagatsuki Minami.
Although Nangong Nayue was about the same height as her, her serious expression still made her a little scared.
"She is my older sister, named Nangong Nayue. She is also a teacher at Caihai Academy, and she is in the high school section."
"Teacher Shi's older sister?" Natsumi Yase asked in surprise.
This is a very normal reaction.
"Hehe, don't let Natsuki-chan's small size fool you, she's already an adult~"
"Call me 'sister' outside!" Nangong Nayue waved her lace fan and tapped the time.
"Okay, okay, then Sister Yue." Shi Chen replied helplessly, but with a hint of doting, as if he were playing along with his younger sister's playful antics.
This made Nangong Nayue very unhappy.
Although it wasn't the first time, it still annoyed her a bit in front of the little girl.
"Hello, Teacher Nangong, my name is Natsumi Yase." Seeing the two of them playing around, Natsumi Yase believed that Nangong Nayue was indeed an adult, and immediately bowed to greet them.
"Mm." Nangong Nayue nodded gently, maintaining the dignity of an adult.
"Xia Yin...is it okay if I call you Xia Yin?"
"No problem." Natsumi Yase shook her head gently.
"That's good, Xia Yin. You don't need to be so polite. Just treat us like your older brothers and sisters. We're not your teachers yet."
"Brother and sister?" Natsumi Yese blinked, her eyes sparkling with interest.
"You don't want to?" Shi Chen looked at her sadly.
"No, I'm willing!" Natsumi Yase replied immediately.
"Then call me 'big brother' and let me see?" Shi Chen said expectantly, suppressing a laugh.
"..." Nangong Nayue remained silent, but couldn't help rolling her eyes at Shichen.
This guy's intentions are too obvious.
Could it be that they actually like younger women?
"Big...Big brother." Natsumi Yase didn't think much of it, her fair face flushed as she called out shyly.
"Mmm!" Shi Chen nodded in satisfaction.
"Xia Yin, if you ever need anything, feel free to ask me. I'll help you later."
"May I?"
"Of course, I'm your older brother."
"I see."
"Can you not be so obvious?" Nangong Nayue couldn't help but interject; she was getting a little fed up.
"Hmm? So, Tsuki-chan, do you also want to be called 'big sister'? Natsume, grant her wish."
"Big sister," Natsumi Yase immediately called out obediently.
"..." Nangong Nayue opened her mouth, but couldn't say anything.
I must say, it was a completely new experience to have such a pure and lovely little girl call me "big sister" in such a childish voice.
How wonderful!
"Your name is Xia Yin, right? You can come to me if you need anything in the future. This guy is unreliable," Nangong Nayue said in a serious tone.
"I understand, thank you, big sister," Natsumi Yase replied sweetly.
"Hmm..." Nangong Nayue pursed her lips, almost unable to hold back her laughter.
Shi Chen found it amusing but didn't expose it.
"Alright, now that we know them, let's feed Xiaoxue and the others. They're probably all hungry."
"Mmm!" Natsumi Yase nodded excitedly.
She really loves these small animals.
