I love time travel the most!

"Is this flat ground from here? But I can't see anything ahead."

After taking a few steps forward, Henrietta suddenly lost her footing and fell down.

Kobayashi reacted quickly.

With lightning speed, he grabbed her wrist and pulled her back instantly with his powerful burst of strength.

It turns out she had accidentally stepped on the edge.

But following the cliff face, Kobayashi saw the white sanctuary below, which was the place he wanted to go.

After silently noting down the location, he got up and went to the girl's side, reaching out his hand to Henrietta, who was still slumped on the ground.

"How are you? Are you hurt anywhere?"

"No! Don't touch me!"

"Hey, hey, hey, why is your attitude back again? Even if you're afraid of men, there's a limit. You weren't really abused and then dumped by some man, were you...?"

"No, no! I swear on the honor of the Billauer family, nothing like that ever happened! And such thoughts are utterly disrespectful! To even dare to try and take advantage of me..."

"Don't slander me!"

Kobayashi's complaints made Anriette look sad, and she pulled her hat down to cover her face again.

She whispered, "I hate boys... they're scary, rude, stupid, dirty, and..."

Even with Xiaolin's excellent hearing, she couldn't understand what she was saying.

Was it because that prince had such a strong influence on her? After all, it was her who caused Charlotte's beloved dog to go out of control under her care.

That's probably why it's like this.

He didn't speak, but silently held her slender calves.

"Do not--!"

"Stop yelling, your leg is injured."

When the man touched her skin, Anliat reflexively tried to pull her leg away, but pain followed.

She then realized that she had twisted her ankle when she almost fell off the cliff.

Xiaolin pressed it gently.

"Ouch! That hurts!"

"Feel sorry."

However, if you find a place, there is a possibility of treatment.

A ball of azure light appeared in his hands and moved toward the girl's slender, delicate legs.

"--cure."

The ball of light merged into the calf.

"Well."

The girl murmured softly, a sound of pleasure emanating from her lips.

"This, this is..."

"magic."

"magic?"

“That’s right. Before automatons existed, magicians used magic, so it’s acceptable for me to use a little bit of magic.”

"Aha……"

Anriette blinked, wanting to ask many questions, but ultimately didn't say them.

Everyone has their own secrets.

Kobayashi then said, "Are you tired? Take a rest here."

“…Mm.” The girl nodded.

Seeing this, Kobayashi's magic surged, and a stream of water flowed from his fingertips.

Henrietta was slightly surprised when she saw it and asked, "This...this is also magic?"

“That’s right. How are you? Are you thirsty? Would you like some water?” Kobayashi kindly asked, but after looking around, he said, “Trouble, there are no cups here. How about you put your finger in your mouth…”

"No way! That's not ladylike at all!"

"You just used vulgar language."

"I...I understand, you did this on purpose, didn't you? You wanted to take this opportunity to mess with me!"

"Hey!"

Persecution complex is indeed troublesome; Xiaolin's fists are hard.

but……

"You really are Charlotte's sister; your face when you're angry is exactly the same as hers."

"...Anyway, you're basically saying that your older sister is prettier, right?"

"also?"

Kobayashi astutely grasped the key words.

It seems they've been compared quite a bit, which is rather unfriendly for the less attractive younger sister.

After a self-deprecating sneer, Anriette turned her back to Kobayashi and said, "Boys... all think that older sister is... cuter."

Hearing her mutterings, Xiaolin felt a pang of sympathy.

After getting to know her, I could feel the pain in her heart.

"Ah, that's right. Charlotte is definitely better looking than me."

"really."

Anliet curled her lip, as if she were scorning Kobayashi for being just an ordinary person like everyone else.

"However, you have one advantage over her."

"……Eh?"

"Breasts. Your breasts are bigger than hers."

"Eh?!"

Anriette immediately turned her head and stared at Kobayashi in disbelief.

It's funny, she's the younger sister, but her breasts are bigger than her older sister's. You can't help but marvel at how amazing the world is.

To boost her confidence, Kobayashi even proactively revealed the system.

"I like girls with big breasts."

They thought this would help the timid girl regain her confidence, but unexpectedly—

"I knew it……"

"what?"

"I knew it! You were planning to mess around with me in this dark cave!"

"Wait, why did this strange misunderstanding happen?!"

Chapter 162 A loving father and a filial daughter

After venting her emotions, Anliet calmed down.

After a period of silence, she slowly said, word by word, "When we were little... my older sister was always very popular, and everyone would gather around her."

"You said it yourself, it was when she was a child, right? Now everyone keeps their distance from her."

"My older sister is always very kind to everyone."

"Now she's prickly towards everyone."

Thinking of that Tyrannosaurus Rex that made everyone avoid a path the moment it appeared, Kobayashi couldn't understand why she was so popular and kind to everyone.

The difference is just too great.

It's possible that Charlotte's current awkward personality is a recent development. After all, that proud young girl also shoulders the task of restoring her family's glory, so it's understandable that she displays a different kind of authority.

Kobayashi's rant made Anriette both angry and amused.

To comfort her, the man in front of her deliberately spoke ill of her older sister. Realizing that her beloved older sister also had a normal side, her closed-off heart gradually opened up.

"...Enri."

"what?"

"My name. My older sister and mother both call me Anli, and I think you can call me that too."

“Really? Then… Anri.”

"Yes."

The girl smiled.

Unfortunately, being in the dimly lit cave, I couldn't see her smile clearly.

at this time.

Suddenly, a faint sound of fabric rubbing could be heard, only a few meters away, indicating that someone had appeared nearby.

Kobayashi immediately pulled the startled and bewildered Henrietta into her arms, while Ryuu instantly circled behind Kobayashi, her scythe beneath her skirt forming a defensive barrier to block the incoming short sword.

Clang!

A crisp sound echoed in the silent space.

At the same time, the other party exuded a clear murderous aura and mechanically questioned, "Please answer briefly, are you the master's enemy?"

Kobayashi did not answer, but slowly turned his head behind him.

It's a girl.
