Chapter 58 - Chapter 58: Here Comes the Black Tea

About ten minutes passed.

After losing several games in a row, Hei Xi couldn't take it anymore.

Bai Xi began to take over.

Bronya, like Cao Bin, could distinguish between Hei Xi and Bai Xi by their voices; noticing the anomaly, Banya glanced towards the wardrobe.

Without waiting for a certain person to jump out on their own.

The Sanwu Shaonv couldn't help but say, "Seele, actually, Bronya has prepared a surprise for you."

"Surprise? What surprise?"

Seele tilted her head.

Bronya said, "You'll know if you open the closet."

Though she felt a little strange, Seele still did as she was told. She walked to the closet and gently pushed open its door.

What greeted her eyes was a very familiar man, dressed in white pajamas, with an awkward yet polite smile on his face.

Lucas was the first to greet her.

"Hello, Seele."

"Lucas Gege… you… why are you here?"

Seele's eyes widened.

Her ocean-blue eyes were filled with confusion.

That evening, Seele was no longer wearing her St. Freya Academy uniform.

Instead, she wore a blue and white dress.

A red bow was tied at her chest, and even more striking was the red Stigmata on her chest.

Lucas said, "Because I wanted to give Seele a surprise. How about it… were you scared?"

"A little… just a little, but… that means… before Seele came, Lucas Gege and Bronya Jiejie were playing together, right?"

Facing Bai Xi's question,

Lucas affirmed without hesitation, "To be able to guess that, Seele is truly smart."

"Seele… isn't actually that smart…"

The sudden praise made Seele a bit embarrassed.

Without giving the other party a chance to react,

Lucas extended a finger.

"Ah, I'll go make you some tea. Try this strong-flavored black tea."

"Ah?"

Seele hadn't even opened her mouth to speak.

Lucas had already slipped away.

Of course…

Lucas hadn't left; he had only entered the kitchen. If he dared to leave now, he was guaranteed to have his legs broken by Heavy Armor Rabbit 19C and then be thrown in front of Bronya.

The seemingly Sanwu Shaonv (Three-No Girl) didn't seem to care about his departure at all.

In reality—the quantum-state Heavy Armor Rabbit 19C had been monitoring Lucas the entire time.

"Bronya Jiejie, why does Lucas Gege seem so afraid of me? Did Seele do something wrong?"

Seele, clutching the hem of her skirt, looked a little downcast.

Bai Xi is safe.

Hei Xi is dangerous.

It must be said.

Bai Xi actually wanted to get close to Lucas.

However, if she got even a little close to Seele, it would cause Hei Xi to jump out.

This was truly hair-raising.

Lucas had experienced being intimate with Bai Xi, only for Hei Xi to jump out and beat him up without a word.

This led to a certain person having to maintain a certain distance when facing Bai Xi at night.

Unless Seele was knocked out with Sleeping Black Tea,

Otherwise, he absolutely couldn't get close.

Bronya said, "Seele didn't do anything wrong; he just wanted to make us some tea. Don't overthink it."

"Okay."

Since Bronya said so, Seele didn't mind.

Banya said, "Compared to that… let's continue playing games."

"Mmm, but… Seele… Seele won't gamble anymore."

Seele showed a pitiful expression.

Compared to Hei Xi, Bai Xi's gaming skills were worse.

If she gambled with Bronya,

She would definitely lose so badly she'd have to reveal the color of her underwear.

"Okay, if Seele doesn't want to gamble, then don't gamble."

Bronya did not force her.

This was completely different from how she treated Lucas.

On the other side…

Lucas, who went to make tea, quickly returned.

"Black tea is here!"

Bronya and Seele looked over together.

Lucas entered the bedroom, holding three cups of black tea. He placed one in front of Seele and handed another to Bronya.

He held the last cup himself.

Lucas took a sip first and said, "This strong-flavored black tea is truly delicious. You both should try it."

All three cups of black tea were brewed with ordinary tea leaves.

Lucas had only placed three pieces of Sleeping Black Tea leaves, stolen from the math teacher's office, in Seele's cup.

Yes.

Just three pieces of Sleeping Black Tea leaves were enough to make a Valkyrie sleep for two or three hours.

The small handful Lucas stole from the office during the day could last a long time.

Seele and Bronya had no suspicions.

Both picked up their cups and took a sip.

Lucas's lips curled into a smile.

Bronya put down her teacup and said, "Seele and I will play games for a while. You come and give me a massage."

Massage.

This was actually starting to move towards an adult game.

Lucas was just one step away from conquering Banya.

There was no need to rush now.

After ninety-nine reincarnations, Lucas was very patient… He obediently walked behind Bronya and gently massaged her shoulders, relaxing her muscles.

Seele watched with a hint of envy. She also wanted to be massaged by a certain person, but she couldn't bring herself to say it.

To be honest.

In her Bai Xi state, she was very gentle and kind. In the past, when Bronya bullied Lucas, Seele could even stop Banya from continuing her mischief.

And then?

Hei Xi played even crazier than Bronya, emphasizing the contrast.

Having experienced this many times, Lucas had grown accustomed to it, which led him to always be suspicious when he met Ai Yi, an incredibly normal Valkyrie.

After massaging for about two or three minutes,

The Sleeping Black Tea's effects kicked in.

Seele rubbed her temples and said, "I feel a little sleepy. I'll go to sleep first. Bronya Jiejie, Lucas Gege, Seele must excuse herself."

"It's okay, go to sleep. Leave the rest to me."

Lucas boldly patted Seele's slender shoulder.

She stood up, swaying.

Seele walked towards her room.

After watching the short-haired girl leave, Lucas immediately sat down on the still-warm gaming chair.

As for whether Seele could safely return to her room here,

There was no need to worry about that.

Even if Seele fainted midway, Heavy Armor Rabbit 19C would help put her on the bed.

Now, he should focus his attention on Banya.

Bronya realized something and glanced at the teacup.

"What did you give Seele to drink?"

"Strong-flavored black tea."

Lucas blurted out.

Bronya rolled her eyes and said, "Still trying to trick me? You definitely added something, right?"

"It really is black tea, just with a little sedative effect."

Lucas pointed at the teacup.

Bronya frowned slightly.

"It won't harm Seele, will it?"

"Don't worry, I have no intention of harming Seele."

Lucas shrugged.

Bronya then relaxed.

"Then let's continue playing, mmm… let's continue our game from earlier."

"So… you agree to gamble?"

Lucas's eyes narrowed slightly.

Bronya recalled their earlier bet, and her heart rate quickened by half a beat. She said, "Gamble then, gamble! When it comes to playing games, Bronya has never been afraid of anyone!"

"Just kidding, I am the Undefeated Emperor, Bronya. You just wait to accept your punishment."

Lucas declared confidently.

Bronya merely snorted disdainfully twice.

In this round, Banya brought out a real-time strategy game similar to StarCraft.

Although playing this kind of game with a controller was very inconvenient,

Bronya didn't care.

The more inconvenient, the better.

That way, Bronya could easily secure victory, knowing that to increase the difficulty, she often played this game with a controller and had extensive experience.

And Lucas?

Normal people probably wouldn't use a controller when playing this kind of game, right?

Not everyone was Banya.

Even if Lucas's gaming skills were superb,

It would be difficult for him to win without being familiar with controller operations.

"Bronya originally didn't plan to bring out this game, but… Lucas, this is you forcing Bronya."

"We must win this round!"

"Hehe… then Bronya will break your legs."

The Sanwu Shaonv (Three-No Girl) focused intently as she selected her faction and left her grand name—Metal Gear Banya.

Lucas glanced at the huge display screen, split into two parts.

He smirked again.

If it were a fighting game, or something else, Bronya would still be troublesome.

He would have to put in two hundred percent effort to be confident of victory.

He might even capsize.

But if it was a real-time strategy game, Lucas guaranteed he could make Bronya cry out loud.

Casually selecting a faction, he also left his grand name—Speedpush Emperor.

This game name naturally drew Bronya's ridicule.

However…

It was no big deal.

Soon, Bronya would know why Lucas chose the name Speedpush Emperor.

Indeed, in less than ten minutes.

Seeing her base about to explode.

Bronya stood up with a whoosh, she kicked Lucas's gaming chair, sending him and the chair back three or four meters… the controller cable in his hand directly disconnected.

Heavy Armor Rabbit 19C even sprang out from the void, holding the man down with both hands, making him unable to move.

Too bad…

Bronya acted too late.

Speedpush Emperor's army had already reached the city walls, carrying the Emperor's last will, launching their final death charge.

Even without command.

Even if Bronya resisted with all her might, she couldn't stop this powerful attack.

The base exploded.

Tragic.

Bronya seemed to lose all her strength, she plopped down onto the gaming chair, covered in cold sweat.

"Lost, how could Bronya lose… This is… This is Bronya's most proud game."

"What kind of… strategy is this?"

Bronya, like a defeated dog, looked up.

Lucas, who was already prepared, smiled and said, "Speedpush, right? Didn't I write it on my ID?"

"How can there be such a fast speedpush! Bronya had just finished building her defenses, and you already brought a huge wave of troops to Bronya's doorstep!"

Banya was agitated.

Bronya, of course, understood what speedpush was.

It was just that no one pushed this fast.

"Mine more, spam troops, no defense, all-in with everything you've got. If you don't know how, I can teach you?"

Lucas was very generous.

Bronya looked up at the sky, momentarily at a loss for words.

The silence in the air didn't last too long.

Lucas's voice rang out like a demon.

"My good Bronya, now… this matter isn't important. What's more important is… you should accept your punishment now. Hurry, I can't wait any longer."

Thinking of the bet just now.

Bronya trembled all over.
