Daily Quest 1: Slack Off
Congratulations! You've completed an incredible task. You are rewarded with a few days of rest.
Reward: 500 divine code stone, 100 ancient divine code stone
The next day at noon, Villain Fox Fox, as usual, checked her quests.
Long live slacking off!
Su Tianqing happily wagged her tail.
Today was Friday. She had an appointment with Jia Yu at school this afternoon to prepare for tomorrow's anime convention.
That's right, there's an anime convention tomorrow! And it's one of the most luxurious anime conventions in Rong City recently!
"It's said that this anime convention has invited all members of the Autumn Osmanthus Squad from Mountain City!"
Su Tianqing typed this line into the chat box:
"Jia Yu, do you know Qiugui? The Magic Girl from the neighboring Mountain City?"
"I know about her, but only superficially," Nan Jiayu replied honestly.
"Speaking of which, Tianqing, what do you have going on this afternoon? Do we really need to talk in person?"
"Something very important!"
Followed by a Fox Fox exclamation mark emoji.
"Didn't I ask you for your measurements last time, Jia Yu? This afternoon is the surprise!"
Nan Jiayu held her phone in silence for a few seconds, then replied with a shocked Cat Cat Head emoji.
"Are you serious? What could it be?"
"Hehe~ You'll find out then~"
Watching the Fox Fox sleeping emoji pop up in the chat box on her phone, Nan Jiayu also sent a Cat Cat sleeping emoji, then lay down on her dorm bed, staring blankly at the ceiling.
Her three roommates silently watched the Cat Girl completely immersed in her chat with Fox Fox.
"Jia Yu."
Roommate A spoke up.
"Are you going out with Tian Qing Tongxue again tomorrow?" Roommate B interjected.
"Do we need to help you fool the dorm supervisor again?" Roommate C said.
The Cat Girl froze for a moment, her tail thickened, and she lay on the edge of the bed, blushing as she replied:
"A-Although I am going out to play, what the hell is 'fooling the dorm supervisor'?!"
"""I don't believe you won't spend the night at Tian Qing Tongxue's house tomorrow!"""
The CP leaders replied in unison.
Nan Jiayu felt she was unable to defend herself, and lacked the confidence to refute her roommates' words.
After all, she really had stayed overnight at Tianqing's house, and they really had slept together in the bedroom for one night.
As for what happened that night, perhaps only in a certain timeline erased by Shen He's big hand could one glimpse the truth.
...I wonder what I'll see at the anime convention tomorrow. Maybe I'll even see a Hellcat coser?
With this thought in mind, Nan Jiayu closed her eyes and began her afternoon nap.
The lunch break passed quickly.
In a flash, it was two o'clock in the afternoon.
The Cat Girl got up lightly, changed into her school uniform, simply tidied her hair, tail, and ears, and quietly slipped out of the dorm room without waking her sleeping roommates.
As a feline beast-kin, Nan Jiayu had full confidence in her stealth abilities.
Then she left the girls' dormitory and headed to a certain room in the club activity building, where she happened to see the Golden Fox bidding farewell to several female students.
"Thank you all~ I'll transfer your payment to you shortly~"
"It's nothing, nothing. We're very satisfied that Tian Qing Tongxue is willing to be our model."
"We hope Tian Qing Tongxue has fun tomorrow."
Both sides seemed quite happy. Nan Jiayu scratched her ear, her cat tail curled behind her, not understanding the situation.
She didn't know those students, but they looked somewhat familiar. She only vaguely knew they were students with excellent tailoring skills.
There was even a timid Pink-haired Rabbit Girl in the corner.
"Tianqing, Tao Tao, good afternoon."
Nan Jiayu took a deep breath, walked forward, and greeted the Fox Fox and Rabbit.
"Ugh Jie!?"
"Hmm? Good afternoon, Jia Yu~"
Su Tianqing smiled and waved vigorously at the Cat Girl, her tail wagging like an electric fan.
Nan Jiayu noticed the cardboard box on the table beside her and curiously leaned closer to look inside.
"What's this? Did those students just give it to you, Tianqing?"
"Of course not! These are clothes I asked them to make."
Nan Jiayu blinked, suddenly understanding why Su Tianqing had asked for her measurements.
So this is what she was doing!
"Then... what kind of clothes did you order, Tianqing?"
"Of course, they're the cosplay costumes I'll need for tomorrow!" Su Tianqing puffed out her Fox Fox chest, saying happily.
Although she didn't understand why Tianqing suddenly wanted to order cosplay costumes, it was probably influenced by Lin Muyao's cosplay of Magic Girl Nightingale last time.
It had to be said that Mu Yao really had a talent for cosplay. At that time, she truly embodied the essence of Nightingale, and it was said she even became the focal point of cameras at the arcade.
But since Tianqing wanted to play cosplay, she would just play along with her. The Cat Girl thought.
"What character are you planning to cosplay, Tianqing?"
Nan Jiayu leaned in to look at the clothes in the cardboard box, picking up a golden yellow outfit that perfectly suited the Golden Fox in front of her. The tag had the three characters "Dandelion" written on it.
Everything was understood without words.
...
Anime conventions are great places for cosplay.
Nan Xiaofeng was also well aware of this.
But as she watched Lin Muyao, who was making the final adjustments to the Nightingale cosplay costume beside her, and then looked at the bandages on her own body, Nan Xiaofeng's mood was somewhat complex.
Especially when her gaze met Hua Ling's slightly nervous one and then quickly drifted away, Nan Xiaofeng's desire to cry almost materialized into a vengeful spirit.
This was the Righteous Faction Rooftop, the activity area for the three members of the Righteous Faction.
"...I say, Hua Ling."
"Mm... Hmm?"
"About what you said regarding those few days, was it true?"
"Of course it was true, Xiaofeng. You even beat up Dandelion back then. Don't you remember anything at all?"
"I don't know anything!" Nan Xiaofeng quickly exclaimed, "I only remember being hit by Xin Yuehu's magic, and when I woke up, I was already lying on the ground!"
"Really?" Bai Ling showed a look of suspicion.
She had once suspected that Nan Xiaofeng hadn't actually been released from Xin Yuehu's control, but from this clumsy reaction, it seemed to be her, so she didn't think too much more about it.
"Hiss... exhale..."
Nan Xiaofeng took a deep breath, then slowly exhaled.
"...In short, I was controlled by Xin Yuehu's magic for three days, and Mu Yao also spent three days in a dream, right?"
"That's right." Hua Ling nodded in confirmation.
"During this time, I was constantly controlled by Xin Yuehu like a puppet, and even filmed... filmed strange videos, right?"
"...Indeed, that's how it was." Hua Ling nodded again in confirmation.
"Then you, Hua Ling, said I attacked Dandelion? And that Tianqing Jie is Dandelion? Is this true??"
"...Y-Yes, that's how it is." Hua Ling finally nodded.
Hua Ling had asked Su Tianqing about the secrecy of her identity, but the Golden Fox didn't mind at all, even telling Hua Ling to actively tell Nan Xiaofeng and the other person about it.
But this seemed to have a rather huge impact on Nan Xiaofeng.
Tianqing Jie is Dandelion, a shocking fact!
"So... that means, while I was controlled by Xin Yuehu, I beat up Dandelion, which means... I beat up Tianqing Jie...?"
"—Waaahhhh, I'm guilty, ahhhh!!!"
Everyone fell silent, everything remained unspoken.
