Levi saw in advance that Stelle was about to start barking, so he immediately hit her with a big mute package.
[Elysia: Why'd you mute her?]
She still wanted to see what Stelle was going to say.
Seeing Kiana speak, Lumine realized there was new activity in the group chat and started paying attention as well.
After seeing Elysia's message...
"Then you can finish what she was going to say."
[Ding! "Group Member" Lumine has been muted by "Administrator" Levi for ten minutes!]
[Elysia: Now you know why I didn't say anything, right?]
The clever Elysia had already realized the moment Stelle got muted that Levi had zero tolerance for trash talk right now.
[Levi: Wrong.]
Levi spoke in the group.
[Levi: It's not that I have zero tolerance for trash talk.]
[Levi: I have zero tolerance for @Stelle @Lumine.]
[Levi: If it were anyone else, I definitely wouldn't do this.]
[Elysia: Really?]
[Levi: Really.]
The very next second after he sent that message...
[Elysia: Never would've guessed, Levi. You're actually this kind of person... You won't even spare Kiana!]
[Elysia: Do you even know! *It's illegal to bully idiots!]
[Elysia: (You f***ing broke the law, you know that.jpg)]
[Kiana: ?]
'Say that again!'
"Why does everyone in this group treat me like I'm an idiot?"
Kiana couldn't help complaining. Sure, she was a little slow sometimes, but not to the point where everyone treated her like an idiot, right?
When did everyone in the group start calling her an idiot?
And who was the first one to do it?
[Ding! "Group Member" Elysia has been muted by "Administrator" Levi for twenty minutes!]
"? Didn't you just say you wouldn't do that?!"
Elysia strongly condemned Levi for going back on his word.
Levi simply replied, "I didn't."
Seeing that Elysia was confused in their private chat, he sent her screenshots of the two mute notifications from the group and pointed at the mute durations.
"They got ten minutes. You got twenty. How is that the same?"
"..."
[Elysia: Shameless.]
[Levi: Thanks for the compliment.]
Seeing how thick-skinned he was, Elysia wrinkled her cute little nose twice and disappeared from the group chat.
Levi and Kiana prepared to return to the Luofu.
Levi went back first. Since the Luofu counted as his world, he could return directly. Kiana needed to teleport to him.
Otherwise she'd go straight back to St. Freya Academy.
The two of them appeared one after the other inside a narrow space somewhere in Exalting Sanctum. Still sitting down, Levi patted Kiana's thigh as she sat on top of him.
"Get off already!"
Had she put on weight? Why did she feel so much heavier than before?
Had she been eating too well on the Luofu?
"It's too cramped. I can't stand up!"
Kiana tried to get up, but because of her natural condition, she bounced right back down.
That bounce almost made Levi put on a mask of pain.
"Are you stupid? Open the door!"
Outside, a Vidyadhara dressed in a suit walked in. He glanced at the shaking stall door, ignored it, then faced the wall and started whistling.
"How am I supposed to open it? I don't know how this thing works."
"Hm? Why is there a woman's voice?"
'Isn't this the men's restroom?'
A huge question mark appeared over the Vidyadhara's head as he looked toward the stall the voice came from. His gaze dropped, and he saw two pairs of shoes inside.
One of them was obviously women's shoes.
His half-lidded eyes flew wide open.
'Holy crap! Kids these days!'
'They're playing this hard?!'
He hurriedly finished up, pulled up his pants, and left as fast as he could, afraid he'd see something he shouldn't.
Another Xianzhou native walked toward the men's restroom. He saw the flustered Vidyadhara leaving but didn't think much of it before walking inside.
Just like before, he immediately heard rustling coming from the stall behind him.
At first, he thought someone was using the restroom.
Then he heard a woman's voice.
"Stop moving!"
"Then hurry up!"
Levi was helpless.
He wanted to open it himself, but with Kiana in front of him and so little room, the moment he reached out, he'd touch somewhere he shouldn't.
To keep him from taking advantage of her, Kiana decided to open the door herself.
But she'd been trying for nearly five minutes, and there wasn't the slightest sign of it opening.
More importantly, a girl beautiful enough to be called a beauty was sitting on top of him and kept squirming.
Any man would have a hard time enduring that.
"Is that your excuse?"
"...Look at it from another angle. It's my way of acknowledging your beauty.", Levi spoke with complete righteousness.
She might be a little lacking in the brains department, but her looks were more than enough to make up for it.
"..."
For some unknown reason, Kiana felt heat rising in her cheeks. She fumbled around again, but the lock still didn't respond at all.
"W-what's going on?!"
Kiana was almost on the verge of tears. If this kept up, she was done for.
"Kiana, you have to trust me. I, Le 'Gentleman' Vi, would never do something like that."
"I trust you. Let go first."
Holding Kiana up, Levi shook his head.
"I can't. If I let go, it'll be even harder to endure."
The blush on her face spread all the way to her ears, and Levi behind her could see it clearly.
Kiana quickly realized that too.
Her face grew even redder.
Looking at the lock that still hadn't moved at all, she shouted, "I've had enough!"
'Damn Xianzhou technology!'
She raised her leg.
Bang!
The door was kicked open from the inside.
Outside, the Xianzhou native who had just pulled up his pants looked at Kiana, her face flushed and clothes in disarray, then at Levi walking out behind her.
He gave an awkward smile.
"Sorry to interrupt. Please, carry on..."
He turned around and left, thinking the exact same thing as the Vidyadhara before him.
'Holy crap! Kids these days!'
'Wait, I'm young too.'
He looked back at the men's restroom behind him.
'Are people my age all this perverted now?'
Shaking his head, he quickly left this place of trouble.
Finally out of the stall, Levi looked at the completely ruined lock, the corners of his mouth twitching twice before turning to Kiana.
"Kiana, you..."
"I'm fine." Kiana nodded as if nothing had happened. "What are we having for dinner tonight?"
"We'll eat..."
[Ding! Lumine has requested to enter your world! Accept?]
Just as he was about to answer, Levi received Lumine's request to enter his world. After thinking about it, he decided to let her in.
At the same time, Kiana noticed that Lumine had sent her a red packet.
After opening it, a little white creature suddenly appeared.
"Whew! I was suffocating!"
It was Paimon.
At the same time, a flash of white light appeared, and Lumine materialized in front of the two of them.
The moment she appeared, she immediately asked, "What happened to you two?"
She'd been sending world entry requests for ages.
Did they really plan to leave her alone on top of that mountain all night?
Without her Wind Glider, there was no way she could get down.
Levi scratched his head.
"Sorry. We got trapped in a stall just now."
"Trapped... in a stall?"
Hearing that, Lumine froze. She turned to look at the stall that had trapped Levi and Kiana.
Then she looked back at the two of them.
The look in her eyes gradually became strange.
