Collapse Iron: I'm a Succubus in the Universe

Seele struggled a few times as she spoke, but being utterly powerless, her actions only served to intensify the strange sensation.

This caused beads of sweat to appear on her delicate skin; it was hard to imagine that such a frail appearance could be found on Seele.

If Bronya were here to see this, she would be very surprised, but unfortunately, all that can be seen now is Sora.

"Alright, since you've put it that way, but before that, could you at least fulfill the bet we agreed on earlier?"

"A bet? What...what do you want to do..."

Qiong did not answer Xi'er's question, but instead smiled and slowly approached her.

Upon seeing this, Seele opened her mouth as if to say something, but in the end, she simply closed her eyes instinctively.

Chapter Sixty: Kissing Seele's Cherry Lips

"Ok?"

After a long while, the expected feeling did not appear, and Seele opened her eyes slightly in confusion.

At this moment, Qiong was staring at her. Xi'er's reaction surprised him. He thought she would resist, but she was so compliant.

Because of his pause, Seele asked again.

"W-What's wrong? You...you're not doing it, what are you trying to do?"

I want to kiss you.

"Tsk, then come on! After all, it's something we agreed on, and it wasn't like before..."

Seele didn't finish her sentence; she tried to appear assertive to hide her shyness.

However, after receiving permission, Qiong suddenly smiled, and then gently grasped the delicate, jade-like skin on her thigh with her palm.

"What...what are you doing?"

"I only said I wanted to kiss you, I didn't say where~"

Qiong revealed a triumphant smile. Xi'er had already given her permission, but looking at the actions of the Homo sapiens in front of her, the girl was even more confused.

However, when Qiong reached out and touched the forbidden area, Seele suddenly realized what was happening.

"You bastard! You actually had that idea... That place is absolutely out of the question!"

Seele struggled again, but to no avail. Seeing this, Qiong stopped for the time being.

"But you promised this yourself, are you going to go back on your word, Seele?"

Seele was speechless for a moment, after all, she also hated people who didn't keep their word, but thinking about the consequences if she continued to agree, she couldn't help but speak up.

"Who broke their promise? But... you didn't say it would be that kind of place! I brush my teeth every day, but I haven't showered for two days!"

This is a lie. Seele, who has been with Bronya recently, has been taking a bath every day, she just hasn't today.

"It's okay, I don't mind."

"Well!"

Seele really wanted to say, "But I mind!", but things had already come to this point, and she could only convince herself that she had to accept the consequences.

At that moment, Qiong kissed the girl's pink lips. As their lips touched, Xi'er instinctively gasped.

"Hmm...is it not ready yet? Hurry up, someone might be here soon! Wait, did you drink it all? Isn't that disgusting!"

Seele remained standing in the corner of the alley, her eyes darting nervously around her, as if afraid someone might come at any moment.

"Uh-huh!"

Urged on by Seele, Qiong also stopped what she was doing. After savoring it for a while, she found it wasn't as bad as Seele had said.

There was indeed a faint smell of sweat, but more of it was an intimate body fragrance. In particular, Seele, being a girl, didn't have a prickly mustache, making the kiss even more wonderful.

"Damn it, I'll remember this grudge!"

Xi'er glared fiercely at Qiong, while straightening her clothes. The blush on her face had not yet faded, and her legs were a little unsteady from her actions.

She originally planned to leave quickly after Qiong finished, but she almost fell to the ground after taking just one step.

Fortunately, Qiong reacted quickly and reached out to support her in time.

"Why don't we go back together? I'm worried about leaving you like this."

"Hmph, who do you think caused this!"

Seele gritted her teeth, thinking that she must turn the tables next time, while not refusing Qiong's kindness.

The two quickly returned to her residence in the lower district, a very simple little room that lacked any girlish charm and could even be described as shabby.

"Come in and sit down, don't look around."

Xi'er spoke directly. Actually, she was almost fully recovered when they were halfway there. If Qiong hadn't been holding her so tightly, she would have run away long ago!

How can this guy remain so calm after doing that? Is he particularly skilled at it? And the feeling he had at that moment...

Seele's mind began to wander; the electric-like sensation she had felt back then still lingered in her thoughts.

However, she still had basic manners, such as pouring Qiong a glass of water, etc. It seems very unsafe for a man and a woman to be alone in a room!

Seele suddenly realized this and looked at Qiong beside her. If it were anyone else, she certainly wouldn't have had this concern.

But Qiong is different; the other party can truly subdue her completely.

"It's getting late, you should go back after you finish your water."

"Ah good."

Seele's behavior was clearly a sign of her being wary of him, and Qiong didn't know what to say about it, since Seele hadn't been like this before.

There was a moment when he wanted to catch his breath, but Seele pressed him down and continued kissing him, although it could also have been an overreaction...

Hiluva: Dome, are you there? I found two coupons for afternoon tea at the Goethe Hotel while I was cleaning. Want to go for a bite together?

One day, Hilva suddenly sent an invitation, and Sora did not refuse it, since the excuse was rather lame.

Based on what I learned from Ling Ke, does Shiluwa really clean the room? Oh well, I'll go check it out anyway.

With these thoughts in mind, Qiong soon arrived at the Goethe Hotel, where Shiluwa was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in the lobby.

"Where are they...? Why haven't they arrived yet..."

As Hiluva was speaking, Qiong reached out and gently patted her shoulder. Realizing what was happening, Hiluva turned around and then smiled faintly.

"Oh, just what I said came true! I was just wondering when you would arrive."

"Of course, since it was your invitation."

"You really know how to talk, you're making me feel embarrassed..."

Hearing Qiong's words, Hilva scratched her head somewhat embarrassedly.

"Anyway, drinks and desserts are all you can eat! It's my treat today, so order whatever you want. After all... I might need to consult you about a lot of things today, so this is the only way to make up for it."

Qiong nodded, but he still had a bit of a psychological aversion to coffee, so he decided to order something else.

During the process, Hilva also expressed her intention to join the Star Train.

Due to various reasons, coupled with her yearning for the wider world, she made this decision.

"I understand you. Welcome aboard!"

"Really? You just agreed?"

Hiluva's tone became excited at the same time, but she still needed to ask for other people's opinions first.

Hiluva understood and thanked him profusely for his help.

Afterwards, Sora also sent a text message to Himeko explaining Hilva's request and briefly introducing the latter to her.

Himeko always welcomes passengers who want to get on board, except for the occasional individual member...

But Shiluwa clearly didn't belong to this type, so the process went very smoothly.

Chapter Sixty-One: Cocolia and Hilva's Past

Before long, Qiong arrived at the machine shop, intending to tell Hilva the news. Coincidentally, Jepard was also there at that moment.

However, Sora, who had just arrived, immediately became the target of the siblings' attempts to win her over during their argument. Although their tone was relatively calm, Sora sensed something was amiss.

"So what's going on?"

"What's going on..."

Hilva shook her head helplessly, and Jepard, who was standing next to her, explained the reason: Bronya wanted to invite Hilva to return to the Iron Guard.

Therefore, Jepard was sent to persuade her, and as everyone knows, Jepard is stubborn and insists that his older sister at least meet Bronya.

Ultimately, she couldn't persuade her otherwise, so she had no choice but to agree. After she left, Qiong couldn't help but chat with Jepard for a few minutes.

During this time, he inadvertently revealed that Hilva wanted to get on the bus, mainly because the situation just now made him mistakenly believe that Bronya knew about it.

Jepard didn't seem surprised, but he couldn't help but sigh and briefly explained what had happened.

And the real reason why Hilva wanted to leave was probably related to Cocolia's departure; thinking about it, that might actually be true.

'Cocolia, what do you think about this?'

Qiong contacted Cocolia, who was working far away outside the city, in her mind. The latter was taken aback at first, but after understanding the situation, she felt a bitter taste in her mouth.

'Master, even if you ask me, someone who has already died once, I don't know how to persuade her. Perhaps boarding the train is a good choice for Shiluva?'

Cocolia wasn't entirely sure either; she wasn't even sure if she should meet with Hilva, perhaps lacking a bit of courage at the moment.

Qiong didn't ask any further questions, but simply nodded and continued talking to Jepard in front of her.

After a brief discussion, the two arrived at Crepper Castle, where Hilva was also talking with Bronya.

After learning about Hilva's situation, Bronya respected her choice, but there was actually another reason why she had called her over.

Bronya's gaze fell on a guitar standing in the corner, and Hilva followed suit, taking a moment to pause when she saw the guitar.

"This guitar... I found it among my mother's belongings. She wasn't fond of music when she was alive, so I suspect it might be connected to you..."

“Cocolia, you…”

Hilva was momentarily stunned, then shook her head. It was indeed hers, but to be precise, it was the joint property of her and Cocolia.

After explaining the situation, Silva asked Bronya to take the guitar back with her, to which the latter did not refuse and did not ask any further questions.

"I hope you have a wonderful trip, Silva. And if you have the chance, please remember to come home and visit."

"Yes, I will. Thank you, Bronya."

The two finished their conversation, and just then, the office door was pushed open, revealing Qiong and the worried Jepard.

The three of them left Crepper Castle together. Looking at the guitar in her hand, Hilva couldn't help but feel emotional. At the same time, Sora contacted Cocolia again.

He accidentally discovered that they could share a field of vision, provided that Cocolia had to enter his special space.

Cocolia agreed, though it was unclear what she was thinking, but she did look at Silva with a complicated expression.

And what the other party is revealing at this moment is about their past, such as the guitar in their hand, which was an invention they came up with back then.

Cocolia named it "Super Electromagnetic Jet Player," or simply "Electric Guitar."

"This name...you really didn't come up with it?"

Qiong found it hard to believe, but after glancing at Cocolia's ashamed expression in that space, it seemed to be true.

As they walked and talked, Hiluva pulled the two of them along to pack their luggage. Upon hearing this, Jepard couldn't help but sigh, feeling a little reluctant to part.

On the way back, she heard a familiar melody, a piece composed by Hiluva, which made her feel emotional and intensified her feelings for her hometown.

Back at the mechanical house, I helped pack a bunch of luggage, which contained many precious memories of Silva, but the most important thing to talk about was that guitar.

It was a birthday gift made by Silva, with Cocolia providing assistance, and designed by her.

When Cocolia is mentioned back then, Hilva thinks of her decisive and efficient nature, and how she always kept her word. At that time, she thought the two of them would be friends for life.

The two were so close back then that they shared everything, including the best things in the world. They lived in the same dormitory, went to school together, ate together, and spent their time together.

Boring times...

This relationship lasted until the final breakup. Even on the day they fell out, Cocolia's office still contained many things they had used together.

“I’ve been hoping that one day she’ll return this guitar to me… Maybe when that day comes, we can make up.”

Looking back now… I was so naive. Maybe she'd already forgotten about it.

As Hiluva spoke, a barely perceptible trace of sorrow appeared on her handsome, spirited face, but her tone clearly betrayed her deep sorrow.
