Chapter 34: You Don’t Want to… Be a Helpless Wife, Do You?

What’s going on?

Does this system have this kind of ability, meow?

[The system truly cannot bear the host’s godly antics today. Personalized service customization has begun operating.]

Huh? No, seriously… what’s up with today?

Yelena witnessed for the first time the system that usually coldly replies “No comment” suddenly acting so cheeky today.

Could it be that the system is also Schrödinger’s system, and it’s just having a temporary glitch today?

“System big shot? Hello~ Did you have a midnight snack tonight? If not, I’ll make some in a bit, along with a paper villa, and burn it for you?”

[…]

Whoa, the damn system didn’t say anything. Yelena thought, today she finally got to vent some of her inner dissatisfaction.

She recalled the earlier defeat warning; the odds were high she wouldn’t escape tonight…

Since she couldn’t escape, she might as well go along with the craziness…

It couldn’t be that later she’d end up in a pose with rolled-back eyes 🈶🧊😅 and hands making a peace sign ✌🏻🥵✌🏻, right?!

Since she wanted to enjoy it, she’d see it through to the end!

Anyway, no matter how she probed and asked about that option, this damn system wouldn’t let her spend the night peacefully…

“System big shot, your tone suddenly changed so much. Could it be that you were too much of a noob before and now you regret it? Want to chat more with your host?”

[…]

Still not talking. Looks like there’s nothing much to fear from this system?

But what does it mean by staying silent like this?

Just as Yelena was thinking about whether to comfort the system next or continue mocking it…

What was coming, finally came.

[It seems the host has grown bold and is asking for trouble!]

[After all, this system isn’t exactly a demon, but if the host dares to question or doubt, all resistance will be punished.]

[Punishment has already been arranged. Please get started immediately, host!]

Yelena: Meow meow meow?!

No way!!

…

Five minutes later.

The last tangled ball of Fox Radish uncontrollably unraveled on its own, and the sensitivity of the Full Moon Blood Tide was amplified in an instant.

Earlier, when the self-unraveled tails touched the ground and other tails, it caused Yelena’s cheeks to flush bright red, and she gasped heavily.

At this moment, it seemed that any touch related to Yelena would magnify her senses several times over.

Yelena’s Fox Radish also began to spiral out of control; she couldn’t protect the two tails in front of her.

The moment she let go, they tangled around Yiweite’s arms and wrists.

Now, the influence of the Full Moon Blood Tide was growing stronger. Just simple skin contact with Yiweite’s hand made her suffer from a numbing sensation that turned the corners of her eyes red.

But it wasn’t over.

Just as Yelena’s mind was wailing in grief over having angered the system earlier, Yiweite’s gaze suddenly turned strange.

Within those golden beautiful eyes, two unusual heart shapes appeared!

The Red-Haired Sword Saint in front froze on the spot, then revealed an extremely unusual, lustful expression. The wet cloth tied around her face also unraveled on its own.

?! !

“No… don’t… it can’t be like this…”

Just as Yelena thought all was lost, Yiweite shook her head violently and slapped herself hard across the face.

Unexpectedly, when the little fox girl’s alarm bells were ringing, the Lord Sword Saint’s willpower remained steadfast.

A deep red mark appeared on Yiweite’s face, and the burning pain restored her clarity once more.

She truly wanted to further develop a relationship with Yelena, but not like this.

Not through a forced, impulse-driven act with such strong desires, leaving bad memories for the little fox girl in front of her.

She wanted to speak, but words failed her.

She really should take the initiative and say something that could put Yelena at ease, words that could comfort the person before her.

But she started hesitating again. She didn’t want this.

She knew what her momentary impulse would eventually bring.

Her parents in the past, those little moments, those painful memories, stabbed Yiweite time and time again, yet also made her grow through adversity.

So much so that she became the Head of Household at twenty years old.

Physical attraction rarely lasts beyond thirty days.

Psychological affection rarely lasts beyond three months.

If after three months, their relationship could still be as close as before, that would be true mutual affection.

But who could know what would happen three months later?

The Demon Race’s movements were unclear; the border remained still.

Peace clearly wouldn’t last long.

Seeing Yiweite’s injured face, Yelena’s delicate brows furrowed slightly.

It wasn’t that she was being forced by the system; at this moment, she just silently acknowledged some things in her heart.

If tonight ended like this, they might both have regrets in the future…

There was only one way.

Though explaining later might be even more troublesome, the arrow had been shot—there was no turning back.

Unexpectedly, Yiweite’s rare, self-struggling expression at this moment was actually quite cute…

But then,

Just as Yiweite was about to follow Yelena’s earlier words, keep her distance, and withdraw from her room,

Yelena grabbed Yiweite’s arm and then pressed her lips firmly against hers!

Their mutual softness overlapped in that moment, but there was no further action.

It seemed merely to stop the words Yiweite hadn’t yet spoken…

In Yiweite’s golden eyes, shock first reflected from Yelena’s proactive kiss, then turned into a resigned understanding reaction.

She had always been fulfilling every promise she made to Yelena.

Whether long-term or short-term, she would do everything in her power to achieve them.

But now, as Yelena pressed closer, there was doubt and fear in her eyes.

That phrase “You are my little fox” was just an expression; what she really wanted to say was, “I will always protect you”!

What Yelena needed might be more practical, action-based expressions.

If she feared and avoided confronting this because of too much overthinking…

Then this was… the thinking of a coward!

Yiweite decided not to let this opportunity slip away.

To respond to Yelena, ignoring the shock in her fox eyes, Yiweite retaliated with an even stronger approach.

Yelena: Mew? Mew mew!?

Everything happened too fast; her fangs couldn’t block Yiweite’s invasion at all, leaving her to let it continue.

‘Yiweite…! My first time…’

Yelena’s fair, pretty face was now flushed crimson, so red it seemed ready to drip blood.

Tears of grievance welled up in her watery, pomegranate-red beautiful eyes.

Why? This was still this fox’s first time, mew mew…

She only wanted to complete the system’s mission requirements, just a simple intimacy. At worst, she’d lie in bed for two days later…

But why did it turn out like this?…

Though Yelena had initiated the kiss, she never expected Yiweite to respond so quickly.

And… it was the kind of active tongue that came out, meow…?

“Mmm…” A brief sob escaped Yelena’s throat, and her body stiffened instantly.

It didn’t stop.

At first, it was simple contact, but Yiweite brought a tentative probing, followed by a certain undeniable intensity after the probing.

Yiweite hadn’t expected that the other’s… was softer than imagined, like sweet jelly.

Inside the room, the little fox girl’s eyes were already spinning like mosquito coils, yet she still resisted.

She tried to keep pounding the Red-Haired Sword Saint’s limbs, attempting to interrupt her this way, but lost the battle of strength.

After a simple interlocking of fingers, the little fox girl was forced to give up resistance.

With no room to retreat, their feelings gradually heated up.
