"Alright, alright, it's past midnight, so I won't disturb your rest any longer, Mr. Yakumo. Goodnight~"
After exchanging a few polite words with Kagurazaka Ayame, Dongfang Bai hung up the phone and sat down to ponder what to do...
I've been playing games every night for the past few days and haven't written anything about "Fate" at all. As a result, the manuscript is still not finished, but it's due in two days.
Tsk, why don't I ask the fairy next door for advice? Ask her how to delay the deadline.
Okay! It's decided! I'll work hard today, stay up all night writing, and try to finish the whole draft in the next two days!
Just as Dongfang Bai made up his mind, his phone suddenly beeped with a message notification.
Ding dong.
This is a message sent by someone else, and it's a Line message. I shouldn't have many friends on my personal Line account.
Aside from Aki Tomoya and Furuhashi Fumino, there's only editor Kagurazaka Ayame, her game friend 'Fallen Angel Black Cat', and 'Angel Gabriel'.
Besides them, there was only one other person. Sure enough, it was from Yamada Fairy. Dongfang Bai picked up his phone and opened it; there was only one sentence.
[Yamada Fairy: Liar!]
"What???"
Dongfang Bai revealed a very subtle expression. Why would Miss Yamada Elf send a message at this time, and why would she send such a completely cryptic message?
[Yakumo Haku: What's wrong? Fairy Teacher?]
[Yamada Elf: You toyed with my feelings! You scum!]
Upon seeing this, Dongfang Bai was at a loss for words, not knowing how to respond. Moreover, this statement was far too misleading.
People who don't know the situation might think they've done something to her.
[Yamada Fairy: You promised to play games with me, but you just tricked me into giving up my computer and disappeared?]
"what……"
So that's what she was talking about. To be honest, I've been so engrossed in the game these past few days that I completely forgot about it. Dongfang Bai scratched his head helplessly.
[Yamada Fairy: You're online right now anyway, right? Play PUBG with me!]
Dongfang Bai narrowed his eyes slightly. He had just decided to work hard, and this first obstacle to his work had already appeared!
Am I the kind of person who lacks perseverance? Now that I've made up my mind, I will absolutely not give up easily!
Therefore, Dongfang Bai is completely... susceptible to this approach.
[Yakumo Shiro: Add me, want to turn on the mic?]
[Yamada Fairy: OK! 】
Afterwards, Dongfang Bai and Yamada Fairy played PUBG all night, which caused them to sleep all day in class the next day without writing a single word.
Chapter Sixty-Four: I'm just doing this as a side task [Seeking flowers and ratings]
"My head... hurts so much."
Dongfang Bai yawned widely, his body, especially his shoulders and neck, ached terribly, as if he had been subjected to a whole set of the seventh set of broadcast gymnastics by a group of strong men.
Last night I played games with Fairy until 3 a.m., and he fell asleep almost as soon as he closed his eyes. He had big dark circles under his eyes, looking like a panda.
Thankfully, it's Wednesday, so there's no class with Kirisu-sensei. I can catch up on some sleep during class...
Although he hadn't finished writing the first volume of "Fate" yet, he felt that with his speed, he should be able to finish it on the last day.
The previous slow speed was because he was typing on his phone, which was naturally much slower. But now that he's familiar with a computer keyboard, it's a completely different story.
Using a mobile phone, I might be able to write 2000 words in half an hour, but on a computer, the speed would definitely double. I estimate that I could finish the remaining 30,000 to 40,000 words in a maximum of 10 hours.
drip.
The alarm clock rang again. To avoid not being able to wake up today, I simply set two alarms.
Mornings are undoubtedly very tiring. Dongfang Bai dragged his reluctant body out of bed, still having to make lunch boxes... Oh well, he might as well just go to the convenience store and buy fried noodles and bread for lunch.
Just as Dongfang Bai used all his strength to climb out of the kitchen, he saw a flash of gold in the kitchen, which made him frown slightly.
My previously exhausted mind was instantly jolted awake...
There should only be Sagiri and herself at home; there couldn't possibly be a third person! So, it's highly likely a thief broke in…
Dongfang Bai placed his right hand on his right side, ready to protect his chest and abdomen in case the other party was carrying any weapons, while his left hand was clenched into a fist.
This set of postures can subdue the opponent in the fastest time. The Bajiquan stance is also ready, ready to strike at any time.
"Huh? You're up?"
A very pleasant and melodious girl's voice came from the kitchen, and a cute little head popped out of the kitchen; it was a blonde girl.
"A fairy? How did you get here... wait, how did you get in?"
Dongfang Bai rubbed his eyes, feeling like he might be hallucinating. His house's security was top-notch, so how could anyone possibly get in?
How could such a sophisticated security door be opened? If any foreign object other than a key tried to open the door, the alarm would have sounded instantly.
"Huh? Of course it's the key."
Yamada Fairy looked at Dongfang Bai with some curiosity. She was twirling a small silver key in her right hand, with the word 'Dongfang' written on it. This was a key with special features of the Dongfang family.
Unless you can make an exact replica of that key, you absolutely cannot open the door.
She looked tired, and her skin was sickly pale. She had gone to bed at the same time as Dongfang Bai last night and hadn't rested well either.
I don't know why she showed up at my house so early in the morning, or why she had the energy to get up now, even though she went to bed so late last night.
I guess that's the energy of youth, huh? I guess I'm really getting old...
"This is... a spare key, right?"
Dongfang Bai could tell at a glance that the key was probably not the one he usually used. To prevent losing the key, he usually prepared one for use and one as a spare.
This spare one was always kept with the phone, and I don't know how the fairy got hold of it.
“That’s right. I found it when you left my house. I can tell it’s your key by the word ‘East’ on it.”
Yamada Elf proudly raised her head. Although she was completely flat-chested, she was so cute that Dongfang Bai couldn't help but laugh out loud.
I guess I accidentally dropped this key when I was moving my computer...
"Then you can keep this key. You can come over and play anytime."
Dongfang Bai chuckled. He had a lot of faith in the fairy's character. He had basically figured her out over the past few days. She was a girl who seemed a bit arrogant but was actually very kind.
Of course, there's also a little bit of loneliness, otherwise she wouldn't have insisted on playing games with me.
Moreover, when I'm not home, I can let her play with Sagiri, and if I'm busy and can't come back in time, she can look after her.
"Oh, okay then."
Yamada Fairy was silent for two seconds, then smiled happily, her eyes narrowing. At that moment, she truly looked like a beautiful fairy from another world story.
"Oh, right, I reckon you won't be able to get up either, ta-da~"
Yamada Fairy led Dongfang Bai into the kitchen, where she had already prepared breakfast and even her own lunchbox.
This feeling is almost like having an extra lovely wife... cough cough.
"You've really worked hard, fairy, thank you."
Without realizing it, the two stopped calling each other "teacher" and started calling each other by their names, and their relationship had indeed improved a lot.
"Hmph... Hmph~ Anyway, I have to prepare breakfast next door, so I'm just making a few extra portions here."
The fairy turned her head away, her face slightly flushed; it seemed she couldn't handle being praised.
Chapter Sixty-Five: Fairies Must Be Angels [Requesting Flowers and Reviews]
"Oh, by the way, do you live alone? I made a little too much."
Yamada Elf crossed her arms, her blush still lingering on her face. To avoid arousing suspicion, she quickly changed the subject.
She glanced at the breakfast she had made; perhaps she was so engrossed in it that she had made a little too much without realizing it.
In that case, it wouldn't just be enough for two people.
"Ah, it's nothing. I live with my sister, but she's a bit of a homebody and hardly ever leaves her room."
Although she's supposed to stay in her room, Sagiri will occasionally come out if Higashiba isn't home, because even if she can skip meals, she still needs to use the restroom...
"A younger sister? Her biological sister?"
Yamada Elf raised her beautiful, slender eyebrows slightly, seemingly asking Dongfang Bai with some doubt.
"No blood relation..."
"No!?"
Yamada Elf looked at Dongfang Bai with utter disbelief, never expecting that he would actually live with his sister who was not related to him by blood, and that they had no parents to care for him.
Who knows if a boy in his adolescence can control himself? Maybe the following year, another person will be born.
"Don't look at me like that, I'm not that kind of person."
Dongfang Bai seemed to have seen through the fairy's thoughts and said to her with an extremely helpless expression.
"Hmph, anyway, I'll come over here often from now on... cough cough, to keep an eye on you, otherwise what if that little sister falls victim to your evil deeds?"
Yamada Elf's ears turned bright red. She pouted, seemingly using a reason that she herself didn't quite believe, that she wanted to come to Dongfang Bai's house to play more often.
Dongfang Bai just smiled and didn't say anything, even though the fairy used a very lame reason, her real purpose was to have a better reason to come and play more often.
After all, if a girl goes to a boy's house every day, it's bound to attract gossip, right? Neighbors in Japan are notoriously gossipy; even a small thing can spread throughout the entire community in less than an afternoon.
He was quite welcoming of her visits. She was alone in her spacious house every day, playing games by herself, and it was inevitable that she would long for playmates.
"Speaking of which... is your house haunted?"
Yamada Elf's face suddenly turned ashen; she seemed to have thought of something bad, and her expression grew even worse.
"Haunted?"
