Heaven knows how many hidden landmines Sirin had that he hadn't triggered.
Just now, when he decided to risk leaving, Lucas had stepped on a landmine, but fortunately, he managed to defuse it.
What if the next landmine couldn't be defused?
How did that saying go again…
Try it and die.
Lucas didn't want to cause any trouble now. He played with Sirin's purple hair and whispered in her ear,
"I know you're not scared; I just want to give you a little more confidence. Can you feel it?"
"I… I can feel it a little bit."
Lucas hugged Sirin tighter and gently patted her back, saying, "How about now? How much can you feel?"
"A lot…"
Sirin's small face flushed red as she uttered these two words. She looked like a steam machine, with steam rising from her head.
Lucas felt it was enough.
So he quietly held Sirin, doing nothing more.
In the silent embrace, half an hour passed quickly. Lucas glanced at his watch and said, "It's 5:11. Guaibao, I really need to go now."
Before six o'clock.
He had to return to his room.
The reason was simple: only after Lucas returned to his room and passed the special time point of six o'clock could St. Freya Academy normally enter daytime. Otherwise, the Valkyries would still be perverted.
In this situation, going to school would be like a sheep entering a tiger's den.
But not going to school wasn't an option either.
If Lucas didn't go, the teachers would come looking for him.
Thinking of some indescribable harmonious scenes.
He let out a breath.
Sirin didn't stop him this time. She lowered her head and said, "It's safe outside now, Papa. You should go."
"I really should go, Guaibao. Come to my dorm next time if you have a chance."
Lucas tentatively asked.
Whether Sirin was willing to come to his dormitory.
Lucas considered this the dividing line for whether he had successfully captured the fugu. As long as she was willing to go with him, it meant he had succeeded, a symbol of a significant improvement in their relationship, and it also meant he could do more.
Unlike active Yandere Valkyries like Raiden Mei, Kiana, and Griseo,
Sirin was very passive.
Many times, Lucas had to probe to see how far his progress had reached.
"Papa, wait… let's talk about it later when there's a chance."
Sirin did not agree.
This made Lucas feel a little depressed. It seemed that the "correct strategy" he had placed high hopes on had failed.
Although he did make further progress.
But…
He still couldn't complete the feat of conquering Sirin in one day.
「I'll take it one step at a time. This isn't urgent anyway. Sirin is hidden in the trash can, so I can take my time.」
"Then I'll go first, Guaibao."
Lucas didn't say anything more.
He pushed open a crack in the trash can lid.
After a quick observation…
Lucas confirmed it was safe, then climbed out directly, landing softly on the ground.
Compared to before 5 AM,
After that, St. Freya Academy would experience a sharp polarization between danger and safety.
The reason for this was…
After 5 AM, the Valkyries would subconsciously go home, and they would take the main roads, forming a terrifying scene almost like a hundred ghosts walking at night.
Lucas once accidentally stumbled into it in a previous cycle.
Tsk, tsk, tsk.
Thinking back now,
Lucas still felt a chill down his spine. The feeling of being stared at by a large number of Night Valkyries was truly despair-inducing.
The Valkyries rushed forward one after another like walking corpses.
The final scene was a blur.
In short…
At this time of day,
The main roads leading to the Valkyrie Dormitory and the Faculty Dormitory would become much more dangerous.
「Conversely, taking the small paths around those main roads would greatly increase safety.」
Lucas thought to himself.
St. Freya Academy had several main roads crisscrossing, with many branch roads and small paths in between.
As long as he was willing to take a detour and expend a little more effort, he could safely reach his Valkyrie Dormitory building.
Using the trash can as cover,
Lucas cautiously observed his surroundings.
「No one, good.」
Lucas quickly sprang into action. Having rested in the trash can for half an hour, he was now full of energy, though his legs were a bit numb from squatting, which was normal since he wasn't a Valkyrie with abnormal physical prowess.
On the other side…
Sirin in the trash can stood up. She pushed open the lid and watched the man's receding back, her eyes filled with confusion, murmuring to herself.
"Papa, I really want to go home with you too."
As if remembering something terrifying,
Sirin suddenly clutched her head and squatted down, trembling as she said, "No… no… if I dare to go, I'll die, I'll definitely die…"
"If she finds out, I can't… I can't be found by her. I should go."
"That's right, I should go."
The trash can quickly fell silent.
If Lucas were to open the trash can at this moment, he would find it empty, with only a faint fragrance in the air proving that a young girl had once hidden there.
As for what happened here,
Lucas was naturally oblivious. He was busy retrieving the things he had discarded earlier.
The two bottles of bitter melon juice on the ground?
Pick them up.
The late-night snack made by Raiden Mei?
Pick it up.
These things, if they could be taken, naturally should be.
Especially the late-night snack. If left here and not put in the refrigerator, it might disappear if he came back tomorrow.
Such incidents had happened before.
Lucas naturally took precautions. He moved quite nimbly, but just as he picked up the late-night snack…
A shadow loomed over him.
Who was it this time?
Lucas knew that at this time… most of the Night Valkyries should be preparing to leave the Faculty Dormitory. The one who would suddenly appear here was most likely a named Yandere Valkyrie.
Turning around, he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw who it was.
"Oh, it's Mei… you scared me. Why did you appear behind me without a sound? Don't do that again in the future. Don't you know that scaring people can kill them?"
Patting his chest, Lucas feigned ease.
A hint of worry flashed in Raiden Mei's eyes.
"Did you encounter danger just now?"
"Yes, but the danger has been resolved, Mei. You don't need to worry about me."
Lucas subtly stepped back half a pace, trying to keep as much distance as possible from Raiden Mei.
After all…
Raiden Mei's nose was a little too sensitive. If she smelled another woman on Lucas, the fun would be immense, and he might even die.
Raiden Mei could kill much faster than Sirin.
A flash of a blade.
His head could say goodbye to his body.
The advantage of such a death was that there was no pain.
The disadvantage was that it was too quick.
It would be difficult for Lucas to take remedial measures and narrowly escape death as he did just now.
As the saying goes, what you fear will come.
Lucas's small movement seemed to have been noticed by Raiden Mei… A chill emanated from her, and her eyes narrowed as she said, "Binbin, what do you mean by this? Why are you stepping back? Don't you love me anymore?"
"Of course I love you, Mei. It's just that I need to go back to my dorm now."
Lucas had a valid reason.
Hearing this, Raiden Mei instantly entered a dazed state.
"Hmm? Indeed, it's almost six o'clock. I need to go back too."
Twelve AM and six AM were two very special time points.
The Valkyries' minds would be inexplicably affected as they approached that moment.
If it had been during the confession earlier,
If Lucas had stepped back half a pace, his head might have already flown off, and even if it didn't, he would have had to spend a lot of time comforting the emotionally hurt Raiden Mei.
But at this special time, the Cook wouldn't pursue it.
"However… before you go, Binbin, I want to watch you eat the late-night snack I made."
「Mei wants me to eat the late-night snack again? This is for Kiana; I won't eat it.」
It wasn't the first time Lucas had been forced to eat by Raiden Mei, so he already had experience dealing with it.
He pulled out a small bottle of floral water from his bag.
He sprayed it vigorously all over his body.
A pungent smell immediately covered him.
Raiden Mei asked in confusion, "Binbin, what are you doing?"
