Red Cape Hero: "What the hell are you talking about? I was shitting myself, thinking you'd been shot!"
Red Cape Hero: "Wait, what? Who is that? Elysia?!"
Shu Cat: "I think it's her. Long pink hair... she's stunning."
Shu Cat: "Huh?! Holy shit?!"
Red Cape Hero: "What now?"
Invincible Bro: "Did someone shoot at you again?"
Today I Want to Eat Soup Dumplings: "Is White Eagle's security really this bad?"
Meanwhile, Elysia had just met Robin. The moment they saw each other, she naturally took Robin's small hand in hers, her pink eyes sparkling like stars. "Robin, I'm such a huge fan of yours!"
Honestly, grabbing your own hand in public and muttering to yourself like that was pretty embarrassing.
Elysia merely blushed slightly at the tips of her ears and curled her toes imperceptibly, but Robin's reaction was more pronounced. Her small wings behind her ears fluttered involuntarily.
Yu Lin, witnessing this scene, was completely dumbfounded.
One moment, Yu Lin was happily chatting with Bird Sister, and the next, a person suddenly popped out of nowhere, grabbed Bird Sister's hand, and started spouting nonsense. Yu Lin immediately pulled them apart, positioning herself between Elysia and Robin, and warily eyed the pink-haired girl before her.
"You..."
Before she could say another word, Elysia seized Yu Lin's hand. "What a cute girl! Hello~ I'm Elysia, it's so lovely to meet you~"
Yu Lin stammered, "Ah... ah?"
Unlike her earlier "self-talk," Elysia showed no embarrassment whatsoever while speaking to Yu Lin. She radiated an indescribable warmth and friendliness, effortlessly charming her way into the young girl's heart. Bonding with other girls was practically second nature to her.
This utterly bizarre scene completely overwhelmed Yu Lin's already flustered mind. "You're... not... I..."
But Elysia continued relentlessly, "Are you cosplaying? Or are you a real Dragon Lady? I absolutely adore Dragon Ladies! Can I touch your horns~?"
Having seen little of the world, Yu Lin's HP bar visibly plummeted under Elysia's sweet offensive. What made it even easier was that Elysia knew Yu Lin well, completely aware of her likes and dislikes, allowing her to target the girl's weaknesses with pinpoint accuracy.
Yu Lin's inner monologue gradually shifted from "Protect Bird Sister and chase this strange woman away!" to "This older sister... seems pretty nice, actually?"
Meanwhile, from Shu Cat's distant perspective, Elysia had suddenly appeared, first engaging in an intimate greeting with Robin before cheerfully chatting with the Dragon Lady beside her.
The sight of three ultra-cute girls holding hands, leaning shoulder to shoulder, and chatting closely (even hugging!) was a visual feast in itself.
Without hesitation, Shu Cat mentally snapped a screenshot of what he was seeing and posted it to the Chat Group—yes, the Chat Group allowed real-time image uploads of whatever the user was currently observing.

Shu Cat: "Wow, this is amazing!"
Red Cape Hero: "?"
Red Cape Hero: "..."
Red Cape Hero: "Hmph hmph hmph—Aaaaaaaah!!!"
Actually, if Lü Heng had only seen Robin and Elysia being affectionate, he wouldn't have reacted so strongly. It was a dream come true for fans of both! But Yu Lin's presence changed everything.
He was jealous!
You see, he had originally planned to accompany Robin to White Eagle, but because he was too weak, Yu Lin ended up becoming her bodyguard instead.
In other words, if he had been strong enough, he should have been the one standing between Robin and Elysia right now, not Yu Lin!
Of course, he knew that as a man, things would have been different if he were there. But that didn't stop him from letting his imagination run wild!
In the Dragon Nation, at the Bureau of Anomalous Investigations, Lü Heng sat at the dining table, staring at his bowl of rice. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. In a fit of rage, he slammed the bowl upside down on the table.
"Aghhhhhhh!!!"
Zhong Wanhong, who was eating across from him, glanced up at the commotion. "Hmm?"
The next moment, Lü Heng swiftly righted his overturned rice bowl, painstakingly gathering the scattered grains with his chopsticks. "Ah... my hand just slipped. No worries, no worries, don't mind me. Carry on eating."
As soon as Lü Heng finished speaking, Invincible Bro, who was also eating at the table and happened to be drinking water while scrolling through the group chat, suddenly choked and spat out his mouthful. Fortunately, his reflexes were quick enough to prevent the spray from reaching the table. Instead, he whirled around and drenched Lü Heng in the process.
Lü Heng wiped his face, slowly raised his right hand, and gave Invincible Bro an internationally recognized gesture of friendship: the middle finger.
Meanwhile, back in White Eagle, Elysia and Yu Lin's relationship had blossomed in just a few minutes, like that of long-lost sisters. With Yu Lin's permission, Elysia even stroked the dragon girl's horns and the tip of her tail.
Looking at the naive Dragon Lady before her, Elysia felt a twinge of guilt. The poor thing was just too easy to manipulate.
Naturally, Elysia's "relationship" with Robin also rapidly "progressed," though this was entirely of her own making.
To be honest, this seemed to be the first time Elysia and Robin had truly met. Observing another version of herself from two different perspectives, Elysia's first thought was: As expected of me, I'm just too cute!
Meanwhile, at the venue entrance, another person arrived shortly after Elysia.
The venue owner, still looking down at his phone, said without looking up, "This place is booked for a private event. Unauthorized personnel are..."
But the same routine followed. Before he could finish his sentence, the newcomer calmly produced a White Tower identification card—not from the local branch, but a Prophet's White Tower certificate from another territory.
The young girl, dressed in loose white robes and appearing to be around sixteen or seventeen years old, said, "The Prophet sent me here to deliver a message to someone named Robin."
The venue owner exclaimed, "Huh?!"
What did I do to deserve being dragged into White Tower matters three times in just two days?!
Naturally, he didn't dare stop her and let her pass.
Elysia, Robin, and Yu Lin were so strikingly conspicuous that the young girl in white easily spotted them and walked straight toward them.
