Chapter 87

"Does touching here feel more comfortable than touching hair?"

"...."

Luolin came back to his senses and quickly withdrew his hand.

Shirna still had that dazed expression, with no increase in resentment and no increase in favorability.

To her, it seemed like just a very ordinary matter, which was what troubled Luolin the most.

The various "common sense" notions different from others that had been instilled in her over a long time couldn't be twisted around just casually.

Now, Luolin's desire to correct or educate Shirna had completely disappeared; this matter needed to be considered in the long term.

"Shirna, you can't let others touch that place casually..."

But Luolin still had to say something. Shirna tilted her head.

She said this, but it carried no conviction whatsoever.

"You know nothing..."

"Except for Master, no one else is allowed."

"No, even I'm not allowed!"

Luolin never imagined that one day he would have to say such things to a young girl.

"In any case, go to sleep now. Starting tomorrow, you'll come out with us to carry out missions."

Luolin continued, because Shirna had no combat ability, he had previously let her stay here and just wait for him and Ailuka to return.

But now it seemed that Luolin's approach might be inappropriate, as it made Shirna feel she couldn't do anything and feel guilty toward Luolin.

Luolin needed to make changes to this situation.

"Really!??"

Sure enough, upon hearing this, Shirna looked extremely happy as she exclaimed in surprise.

"Yes, would I lie to you?"

Luolin nodded in confirmation, and Shirna shook her head.

"Master would never lie to me, that's wonderful!"

Shirna's joy was evident.

"Now, go to sleep, or else tomorrow's plans are off."

"Shirna understands, Shirna will go to sleep right now!"

Shirna immediately agreed and turned to walk toward her bed.

Only then did Luolin breathe a sigh of relief.

[Master, such a good opportunity, just go for it!]

"Go for what? By the way, how did you become like this too?"

Previously, it had always been the Resentment System that would say such things to Luolin, instigating him to "have his way with her."

[Because doing this definitely won't increase resentment, but will increase favorability.]

The Favorability System was quite honest, but Luolin would not adopt this approach.

Luolin sat up and straightened his clothes.

He didn't know how long he had slept; it should have only been a short while. Outside the window, a full moon hung in the sky, surrounded by pitch-black darkness. Not many stars were visible tonight.

Luolin glanced around but didn't see that person's figure.

"Ailuka hasn't returned yet?"

Luolin couldn't help but feel somewhat puzzled. Could something unexpected have happened to her?

However, Ailuka's strength was even greater than Luolin's, so what accident could possibly befall her?

[Master, haven't you noticed that tonight is somewhat different from usual?]

At this moment, the favorability system spoke again in Luolin's mind.

Different?

Luolin indeed hadn't noticed anything different, until he looked at the sky outside the window again.

There weren't many stars in the sky, it was pitch black, with a round moon hanging there...

A round moon!??

"Tonight is the night of the full moon!?"

Luolin suddenly became alert. Damn it, he hadn't noticed it at all before.

"You could have told me earlier."

[But Master, you didn't ask.]

Luolin had no mood to argue with the system now. Right now, he had to hurry up and go out to find Ailuka.

Luolin scrambled up from the bed in a fluster, not even bothering to put on his shoes, and headed toward the door.

"Master, where are you going?"

Shirna certainly hadn't fallen asleep that quickly. Seeing Luolin's strange behavior, she asked. Luolin had no time for lengthy explanations and simply said:

"I'm going out for a bit. Lock the door properly, and remember, don't open it for anyone who comes."

Luolin said. He didn't need Shirna to open the door for him anyway; he had a key.

Shirna nodded in agreement.

"Shirna understands."

She said. Luolin closed the door and left the room.

But standing in the corridor outside, Luolin still stood there in a daze.

Although he needed to find Ailuka, where should he start looking?

"I need to find her quickly."

Luolin was anxious in his heart.

Based on the previous experience, Ailuka would lose control on the night of the full moon because of the dragon blood within her body. That bloodline compelled her to transform into that appearance on full moon nights.

If she transformed like that while outside, that would be terrible.

"That girl really... doesn't she know what happens to her tonight? And yet she still runs around on me."

Luolin was quite helpless. Helpless as he was, he still had to find her.

"In any case, let me first search along the nearby streets."

It seemed the system wouldn't provide Luolin with any direct help in this matter, so Luolin could only rely on himself. He hoped he could find her before Ailuka completely lost control.
