My name is Levi, and I work in anime.

Carrying the unconscious Gareth into the bedroom, the boy didn't immediately see Artoria. He only found a lot of snack wrappers on the floor, as well as an empty drink.

"Alcoholic chocolate, and low-alcohol grape juice drinks, no wonder Gareth got drunk."

It seems that this is the reason for the problem.

These things, however, do not look like products of the Fairy Kingdom at all; they have a rather modern feel to them.

Where did they get them from?

"boom!"

Just as the boy was racking his brains trying to figure it out, the bedroom door was locked from the inside.

Artoria, dressed in extremely revealing clothing, appeared before Li Wei.

Chapter 41 Drunken Chaos [beep]

They said they were dressed lightly, but in reality, they were just wrapped in a bath towel, with their bare thighs and arms exposed, and their bodies exuding the fragrance of flower petals.

As a carnivore who has seen and eaten a lot, Li Wei naturally wouldn't panic like some herbivores and say things like, "Artoria, this is too unhealthy for you, hurry up and get dressed!" He just looked at the girl who was different from before with a little curiosity.

Hector once said that saviors seem to come from the boar or bear clans, and they are reckless in their actions, never turning back until they hit a wall, and even after hitting a wall, they may not turn back.

If the Artoria of the past was like an energetic little wild boar, then today she is definitely the best of the best among wild boars—at least she can be considered a wild boar princess.

"Have you been drinking?"

Li Wei stared at Artoria with a scrutinizing gaze, and his mature and composed demeanor made the Tintagel girl instinctively shrink back.

It was only for a moment, and then, as if granted courage by the alcohol, Custer immediately became brave again.

Her personality is characterized by recklessness and impulsiveness.

"Avi!" Artoria shouted.

"Yes, yes, I'm here, what's wrong, Artoria?"

"Don't call me Artoria, call me Lia, Lia, do you hear me!?"

"Okay, okay, Lia, is this alright?" It's just a form of address, but it sounds more intimate.

"Hum hum!"

Hearing Levi readily change his form of address, Caster chuckled sweetly, then swayed unsteadily and drunkenly to Levi's side. Seeing Gareth snuggle into his arms like a puppy finding its owner, Caster could only hug the boy from the side.

"Avi, the names of fairies in the Starry Sea aren't just given out randomly. Since you've called me Lia, you'll have to come back to the Starry Sea with me from now on!"

"Didn't you tell me to call you that?"

"Hehehehe... I don't care, you called me Lia, does that mean you like me?"

"Stop fooling around, Lia..."

"Say it! Tell me quickly, I want to hear you say you like Lia!" The fairy from the Starry Sea immediately grabbed Li Wei's arm and shook it, starting to throw a tantrum.

"Okay, okay, I like Lia." Anyway, she's drunk, so it doesn't matter. She won't remember anything when she wakes up tomorrow morning.

Moreover, I do really like her.

"Hehehehe, I knew you liked me. You asked my name right away and you firmly believe that I am the savior."

"..." The reason I firmly believe that you are the savior is simply because I have read the Arthurian legend.

Unaware of Li Wei's inner thoughts, Castor felt as if he had accomplished something great, and his mood became extremely pleasant.

However, this feeling of happiness did not last long. Soon, under the influence of alcohol, the Savior became dissatisfied again.

"Avi, you womanizer, you've been getting too arrogant lately."

Artoria, her face flushed from the alcohol, looked at Gareth in the boy's arms with great displeasure and bit his neck.

It didn't hurt because I didn't use much force. Instead, I gently licked the area in my mouth with my tongue, which made Li Wei feel itchy.

"He already agreed to go back to the Sea of ​​Stars with me and spend the rest of his life in Gensokyo, yet he still flirts with a bunch of girls. He's such a jerk!"

"When did I agree to go back to the Sea of ​​Stars with you? I'm going back to my hometown later." Aren't you afraid that the Two Elements will come and cut off your lifeline if you keep spouting such nonsense? Don't think that the Suzheng Defense can save you.

"I don't care, you're willing to help me save the world, that means you agreed." Artoria was extremely annoyed: "Since you already agreed, why did you go and mess with Morgan, and you didn't even let Gareth go? Bagst's gaze towards you was also very strange, Aurora's body went weak when she saw you, and Melusin and you were super ambiguous... Oh right, even Bavanshi, are you not planning to let go of a girl like that?!"

"You make it sound like I'm some kind of reincarnation of a beast of love and desire."

"In short, you bastard! You bastard! You're supposed to be my one and only for life, yet you're still messing around with so many girls. You're a heartless bastard! When we get back to the Inner Sea, I'm going to get everyone here to stand up for me!" Artoria shouted angrily.

If you say that, wouldn't I be even less willing to go back to the Inner Sea with you? And when did I ever promise to be with you for life?

They say people speak the truth when they're drunk, and it turns out that Custer's true nature is like this. He's completely different from the cautious and timid person he seemed when we first met him on the street.

Although I don't dislike Li Wei.

Finding that her words didn't seem to have any effect, Artoria frowned, then decisively jumped onto the boy's back, her legs wrapped tightly around Li Wei's waist, refusing to get down no matter what.

Now, with Gareth in front of him and Caster behind him, he felt like he was being tightly hugged by two koalas, putting him in a very passive position.

"I want you to say that you will be Artoria's sword sheath from now on." The girl with the ahoge reeking of alcohol licked the boy's ear and murmured, her words unusually ambiguous.

"..." This is something I can't just agree to.

Who knows what the scabbard means? Making promises lightly and then failing to keep them violates the virtues and integrity of a gentleman.

Otherwise, they could just sit there all night, and when they woke up the next day, the matter would be considered closed.

But should I carry both of them to bed like this?

Just when Li Wei was caught in a dilemma, his savior appeared.

"Sweetie, sweetie, don't be so willful, Avi will be very conflicted."

Before the boy could come up with a solution, the equally drunk Bavanshi hugged Artoria first, gently stroking her hair and softly comforting her.

Under her pats and soothing touches, the boar-like energetic Castor quickly became docile, then loosened his grip on Levi's legs and was held in Bavanshi's arms, looking very comfortable and wonderful.

"Bawanshi...you're really good at taking care of people."

Li Wei looked the fairy knight Tristan up and down in surprise, as if he were seeing her for the first time.

Previous rumors about her revolved around cruelty and willfulness; no fairy would ever associate the word gentleness with Bavanshi.

After this inexplicable drunkenness, is this the kind of person she truly is?

Seeing Li Wei's surprised look, Bawanxi seemed a little embarrassed and simply nodded shyly at the boy.

At this moment, as she cared for others, she radiated an amazing maternal instinct and an unprecedented gentleness.

Chapter 42 A young girl's shyness speaks louder than words

So in Artoria's room, Castor and Gareth lay hand in hand on a bed and fell into a deep sleep.

Li Wei quietly closed the door, and for some reason felt that he and Ba Wanxi were like an old married couple who got up in the middle of the night to check if the child had kicked off the blankets.

It's already past midnight. If we don't rest now, the sun will rise, and we'll realize we've stayed up all night again.

These girls all have terrible alcohol tolerance, but thankfully their behavior when drunk isn't too bad. If they were all like Hiratsuka-nee, they'd probably turn the hotel upside down.

"Go to sleep, go to sleep, you need to rest well to have a healthy body."

As she spoke, Bawanshi let the boy's head rest on her lap, gently patting his back to soothe Levi's emotions.

In such a cozy environment, Li Wei quickly closed his eyes, ready to drift off to sleep—or so he thought.

The boy suddenly opened his eyes and realized something.

This is my room, so why is Bawanxi here?

More importantly, despite being highly vigilant, I didn't notice anything amiss from beginning to end.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

After getting drunk, the fairy knight Tristan, who had become gentle and loving and radiated a divine and saintly glow, asked with concern.

Given her current appearance, even if Li Wei were to show her to other fairies, they would probably all assume that he had used some kind of hypnosis app, common sense modifier, or had some kind of leverage over her. Otherwise, Bawanxi would never have shown such an expression.

"Uh...you don't look quite the same as usual right now." After carefully considering his words, Li Wei tried to ask.

"...I see. Actually, I've always been like this. When I was adventuring with Ash, I was afraid to sleep alone at night, afraid to go to the toilet alone in the middle of the night, and I was also very weak, so I couldn't help everyone at all. I could only comfort everyone after the battle and do what I could."

She raised her hand to brush her disheveled hair behind her head, a gesture that inexplicably gave Bawanxi a mature air about her: "It's just that every time, because of my personality, I always end up in a bad way, so Morgan told me that I must live a tougher life in this one. In the Fairy Kingdom, a kind and gentle personality won't survive."

At this point, she added, "If you had been by Ash's side from the beginning, perhaps many things wouldn't have happened later."

These words left Li Wei speechless.

Bavansh and Morgan must have gone through a lot of very difficult things to end up like this.

Perhaps Morgan wasn't like this at first, but only did so out of necessity for the same reason.

"Since you don't dislike me, why do you always pick on me every time we meet?" He didn't say this aloud; he just thought it to himself.

But the fairy knight Tristan looked into the boy's eyes and seemed to understand his meaning as if by telepathy.

“Because you only ever have eyes for Mother and never pay attention to me,” she said. “Morgan really acted quickly; by the time I realized my feelings, it was already too late.”

"..." The almost entirely straightforward approach surprised the boy.

Bawanshi didn't give the boy any more time to think. She simply lifted her long hair and slowly lowered her head.

Their faces drew closer and closer, and finally, like a dragonfly skimming the water, the fairy knight Tristan gently kissed Li Wei.

"Go to sleep, there are things to do tomorrow." She comforted you like this: "I'll go back to my room after you fall asleep."

The boy has a lot to say, but doesn't know where to begin.

Alright, let's stop here for today.

With these thoughts in mind, Li Wei closed his eyes and gradually drifted off to sleep to the gentle songs that Bawanshi sang to the gods, like a witch chanting to the gods.

……

The next morning, when Li Wei saw the other three girls again, everything had returned to normal.

Artoria remained energetic and vibrant, Bavanshi wore an arrogant and disdainful expression, and Gareth's eyes were as firm and sharp as a knight's.

"Um, Artoria," Levi asked tentatively, "Do you remember what happened last night?"

"Did something happen last night?"

Caster clutched his head, looking like he had a blackout: "I only remember watching the opera with Bavanshigares, then eating snacks and drinking beverages, and I don't remember anything after that... Ugh, my head hurts so much. I'm never watching the opera while eating snacks and drinking beverages again."

Li Wei: "..." You're just drunk. What does that have to do with whether or not you're watching a play?

"Avi, what did we do last night?" Gareth, the dog-girl, looked at the boy curiously.

"It's nothing, nothing happened." The boy shook his head. It would be awkward for everyone to talk about this, so it was better to forget about it.

It would be terrible if Artoria really wanted to take me to the Sea of ​​Stars.

All will be well once everything returns to normal. Today we still have to ring Gloria's pilgrimage bell; there's no time to waste.

With that in mind, the boy finished his breakfast first and returned to his room.

then……

"I... ...

In places unknown to some, the girl of Tintajer trembled violently, her face flushed crimson as if it were about to drip blood.

"I...I...I'm the one who should be doing this! I actually went to raid Lord Li Wei at night and even tried to lick his boots like a dog. I just want to die right now!"

Gareth groaned, covering his face. "It's so embarrassing... that kind of thing..."

"Quiet down, you'll disturb him!" Bavanshi said calmly.

Immediately, the two flustered girls covered their mouths, afraid to make a sound.

“You two are too tense!” Fairy Knight Tristan pointed out their current state. “This makes it easy for him to become suspicious.”

"But...but..." Artoria seemed to want to say something more. Last night wasn't all embarrassing; some aspects had achieved certain results.

But after seeing the way the other two were looking at him, he decisively gave up.

Bawanshi looked helpless: "Anyway, listen carefully, we absolutely cannot let that guy know that we have the memories from last night, understand?"

Both men nodded at the same time.

"But speaking of which, after I slept with Gareth, you and Avi went out. What happened after that?"
