Looking at Fujiwara no Mokou furrowed brow, Kaguya Houraisan also felt a bit sorry for her; after all, she had no reason to hurt this cute girl.
'It's all that man's fault.'
She couldn't help but complain about the other party in her heart; after all, it was all his fault she was misunderstood by this girl.
"I could never like that lolicon. Not only is he not gentle to girls at all, but he also always appears and disappears as he pleases. So, Mokou-chan, remember, when looking for a husband in the future, you must never look for this kind of man..."
Kaguya Houraisan, who had just prepared to warn Fujiwara no Mokou, stopped halfway through and found that Fujiwara no Mokou sitting beside her did not continue to agree with her this time. Instead, she lowered her head and tugged at the hem of her clothes.
Immediately, her heart skipped a beat. Could it be——————
"Mokou-chan, you don't like that man, do you?"
As Kaguya Houraisan voice fell, she could clearly see this shy girl's entire face turned red. Especially the tips of her ears were a patch of bright red. But she still nodded shyly.
"Father hopes to betroth me to Lord Lancer."
"You can't!"
Kaguya Houraisan didn't know why she spoke. Was it because she was afraid that man wouldn't play games with her after getting married? Or was it that she couldn't bear to take the other party to the moon again? She didn't know, but before she could think clearly, her words had already come out. That hurried voice even made the originally shy Fujiwara no Mokou look at her in disbelief.
"Sister Kaguya, could it be that you also..."
"No."
Before Fujiwara no Mokou could finish her words, Kaguya Houraisan spoke to deny it. It was just that for some reason, looking at her as she lifted her sleeve to cover her mouth, this strange action naturally aroused Fujiwara no Mokou suspicion. Fortunately, she soon returned to normal and lowered her right hand. The expression on her face also became solemn, but for some reason, the flush on her cheeks could not be removed no matter what.
"Mokou, listen well. Although you are Fujiwara no Fuhito daughter, you are also Fujiwara no Mokou. The reason that man wants to marry you to Lancer is just to use him. You have no need to sacrifice yourself for that man's ambition."
As for things like "use" and "ambition," Kaguya Houraisan naturally could not be certain. One could say she was completely talking nonsense. But the problem was, would she have psychological pressure talking nonsense about a man who still stuck to her like glue after she had rejected him countless times?
Kaguya Houraisan words could be said to have given Fujiwara no Mokou young heart a strong impact. Her gaze also became somewhat erratic. It seemed that having the man she admired most in her heart receive such an evaluation made her not know how to react for a time.
Seeing that Fujiwara no Mokou seemed to have been moved by her words, Kaguya Houraisan gritted her teeth and decided to strike while the iron was hot.
"Mokou, do you know why I, as a 'Celestial Maiden', appeared on the surface?"
Not knowing why Kaguya Houraisan would suddenly bring up this topic, Fujiwara no Mokou still shook her head.
"It's very simple. Because I violated 'Tsukuyomi's' order and took the 'Hourai Elixir'. Taking the Hourai Elixir is strictly forbidden in the Lunar Capital, and even the manufacturing method is extremely secretive. But to prove that I am not inferior to my older sisters, I took the 'Hourai Elixir'. Finally, I was exiled from the 'Lunar Capital'. But I————do not regret it! Remember, Mokou, we are absolutely not someone's appendage; we have our own will, so our future should not be decided by others!"
Kaguya Houraisan had never told anyone about this matter, but now she told Fujiwara no Mokou without any concealment.
However, she was very satisfied with her speech. Looking at Fujiwara no Mokou, who was lowering her head and remaining silent, she felt her impassioned words would surely be able to persuade Fujiwara no Mokou to resist her lolicon old man.
After waiting for a long while, Fujiwara no Mokou actually lifted her head again. Her slightly trembling lips showed that her current mood was not calm, but her eyes were incomparably firm.
"But, Sister Kaguya, regardless of Father, I still like Lord Lancer."
Did I say all that for nothing?
Beneath Fujiwara no Mokou cowering appearance like a fledgling seemed to be hidden a firm heart. Besides the initial trembling when she spoke, her expression became more and more serious, and her speech became more and more firm.
"Mr. Lancer not only saved Father, but also saved me. Although Lord Lancer is always mysterious, every time he appears he brings me the stories I am most interested in. Clearly, regarding Father, Lord Lancer is also always stern, but when facing me he is always smiling. He even held a banquet for me today. Clearly... clearly even Father didn't return because he had matters, but Lord Lancer didn't forget. I always thought I was just an insignificant child in the Fujiwara family, but Lord Lancer made me know that I am actually so special."
"Regardless of Father words, I love Lord Lancer because of my own will!"
Looking at the persistence shown within Fujiwara no Mokou soft body, Kaguya Houraisan found that she might have been wrong. The other party was not a cute canary, but a young eagle with a soft exterior and a strong core...
Perhaps because she was too excited, or perhaps because she had finally said everything she had been hiding in her heart, at this moment Fujiwara no Mokou was constantly panting there, until————
"Mokou!!"
Watching Fujiwara no Mokou fall toward her, Kaguya Houraisan appeared at a loss for a time.
"Lancer!!"
Because she was too excited, her shout appeared somewhat piercing. But she didn't know if that man could hear it. After all, the soundproofing technique set up in this room was originally made by Lancer at her request to prevent being discovered while playing games. But the only thing she could do now was to hope for that man's appearance.
Fujiwara no Mokou, held in Kaguya Houraisan arms, was burning all over while constantly panting. That pained expression even made Kaguya Houraisan feel empathetic. She was even afraid that the reason the other party became like this was because of her previous words.
But just at this moment, a figure leaped in from outside the window. A serious-looking Lancer took Fujiwara no Mokou from Kaguya Houraisan hands.
He first covered Mokou forehead with his right hand, and then wisps of water mist leaked out from between Lancer fingers...
And Kaguya Houraisan, looking at Lancer serious but not surprised expression, suddenly realized that Lancer might know something.
"Lancer, what is going on?"
"Mokou... her lineage has awakened."
