"Clang—!"
The room door was slammed shut, the loud noise shaking the entire warship.
One could tell how much resentment was behind the action of closing the door.
Qin, sitting on the bed, trembled all over.
Danger!
He was still in a dazed state, just waking up.
What was the situation now?
"..."
The purple-haired girl standing at the door gripped the doorknob, silent for a long time.
An uneasy creaking sound arose, the door groaning under the immense pressure.
It was as if it was using its last bit of strength to warn someone.
Run, run fast!
There's killing intent!
"!"
Qin Yu raised his head, wanting to survey his surroundings.
In reality, he was preparing an escape route.
But before he could make a move.
"Mmm... Qin Yu..."
A soft, dazed voice whispered in his ear.
Like a hungry little kitten searching for its mother.
"I...!"
Qin Yu's eyes widened, his face stiffening.
His body, which had intended to move, felt as if it had been struck by a petrification spell, unable to budge an inch.
"??"
There was something behind him!
Qin Yu's gaze was filled with surprise as he slowly turned his head.
The next moment...
Before him, a pair of bright emerald green eyes blinked.
"You are..."
Qin Yu mumbled, his mind going blank instantly.
Warmth pressed against his back, bringing a soft sensation.
Like marshmallows, soft and light, leaning against him.
"Qin Yu..."
It was an impeccably clean, exquisitely beautiful little loli.
Her elven-like pointed ears were tinged with a slight pink, still unaccustomed to the unfamiliar environment.
She extended a fair little hand and clutched Qin Yu.
Her large, watery eyes blinked, as if to keep him there.
"I am Nahida."
Nahida tilted her head, a happy smile quietly blooming on her small face.
"..."
Qin Yu froze on the spot.
The memory of the green leaf transforming into a little loli in his dream became clearer.
So this was how Nahida looked when she was surfing the internet.
A loli, and a white-haired little loli at that.
So cute.
This was Qin's only thought at the moment.
Before any other thoughts could emerge.
"Screech!"
Suddenly, a cold glint flashed in the enclosed room.
The resonant hum of a sword being drawn brought a chilling cold.
Qin Yu's heart leaped, and he quickly looked back.
He saw Keqing, who had retrieved the Lion's Roar at some unknown time, pointing her sword at him, cold sweat beading on his forehead.
"Keqing, calm down first."
Qin raised his hands, finally realizing the seriousness of the situation.
His clothes had already been changed.
He didn't know who did it.
Naturally, he had no weapons on him.
Facing the fierce Keqing, he felt a sense of unease.
He should have hidden his sword earlier!
"Qin Yu! Do you have anything else to say!"
Keqing looked at Qin Yu, who was dazed on the bed, nuzzling the white-haired loli, and said indignantly.
White hair... Sandrone is ruled out first.
Who did you have a child with!
"Qin Yu..."
Nahida gently gripped Qin Yu's shoulder, a flicker of worry in her eyes.
Was her existence causing trouble for Qin Yu?
"It's not like that..."
Thinking this, the white-haired little loli extended her short legs.
She wanted to protect her only friend.
However, things took an unexpected turn.
Nahida intended to stand in front of Qin Yu and explain the situation.
But she found that her newly born body was still a bit weak.
Coupled with her short legs, she couldn't get there in one step.
So she could only...
"Mmm."
Nahida hugged Qin Yu, struggling to move her small body.
Like a koala clinging to Qin Yu.
"Nahida, wait...!"
Qin Yu's expression changed slightly.
The sensitive and strange feeling sent a shiver down his spine.
Nahida pressed against him, lifting her small feet and placing them on his thighs.
That warm and soft feeling...
Just listen to his excuses, he's ticklish!
"I... I'm sorry."
Nahida's long, beautiful eyelashes trembled, and she quickly stopped her movement.
She could feel Qin Yu's turbulent emotions.
And even more turbulent...
"Okay, Qin Yu."
Keqing suddenly smiled, her gaze completely darkening.
A sword approached Qin Yu.
"Tell me, who is this girl!"
From her perspective...
A little girl, who had appeared from nowhere, was tightly hugging Qin Yu.
Clearly presenting herself as a well-behaved daughter acting spoiled towards Qin Yu.
Those large, watery eyes seemed to say...
"Dad, that scary auntie."
"Compared to Mom, she's not gentle at all."
Thinking this, a purple glint flashed in Keqing's eyes.
Was she that scary just for drawing her sword and pointing it at Qin Yu?!
Keqing, the cat, instantly conjured countless imaginary scenarios.
If the daughter is this cute, then the mother must be a great beauty.
Quickly confess who that woman is!
Qin Yu: ...
He sighed, speechless.
Explanation? How could he explain?
He just slept, and a white-haired loli appeared out of nowhere.
He was also completely bewildered!
Mrs. Greater Lord Rukkhadevata, come and take your daughter away!
"Keqing."
Qin Yu raised his face, meeting Keqing's gaze.
He casually wrapped his arm around Nahida, preventing her from falling.
Her newly born body was still very weak.
"..."
Nahida blinked her eyes, sensing Qin Yu's concern and protection.
So reassuring, she liked it very much.
Is this what it feels like to have a friend?
"I'll handle it from here."
Qin Yu said in his mind, within his spiritual world.
Nahida nodded obediently.
She also glanced at Keqing, her gaze soft.
She hoped everyone could resolve their misunderstanding.
"!"
Keqing's beautiful eyes narrowed, her sword-holding hand trembling slightly.
The thought of this being such a cute daughter born from Qin Yu and some woman made Keqing, the cat, feel a little defensive.
"Keqing, listen to me."
Qin Yu took a deep breath and said softly.
Can we put the sword away first?
"I'm listening to your excuses!"
Keqing snorted coldly, glaring at Qin Yu.
"Don't scare the child," Qin Yu said helplessly.
He felt like an old father.
"Then tell me, whose child is she?"
"...Definitely not my child."
Qin Yu sighed, his tone sincere.
She was Mrs. Greater Lord Rukkhadevata's child.
Although he didn't know who Mrs. Greater Lord Rukkhadevata's husband was, it had nothing to do with him.
"Not?"
Keqing's beautiful eyes narrowed, a flicker in her gaze.
"What else, this child is not young anymore."
Qin Yu explained, picking up Nahida and gently placing her in front of him.
He also ruffled the white-haired loli's small head.
Good texture.
"..."
Keqing slightly lowered her sword, wavering a little.
After all, Nahida looked at least seven or eight years old.
At that time, Qin Yu probably couldn't do anything bad.
Let alone have children with other women.
"I am Qin Yu's younger sister."
Nahida, seeing that Keqing was already wavering, added.
This was the identity she had calculated as being most beneficial for her to stay by Qin Yu's side.
Of course, she didn't know yet.
In Inazuma City, how many...
"Sister?"
"Uh... Ah... Yes."
Qin Yu almost didn't react.
Was this a de facto adoption by Mrs. Greater Lord Rukkhadevata as a godmother?
