Chapter 156: Should I hit Lillian?

Appearing before Qin Shion was a girl with lustrous long blonde hair, wearing a black-and-white maid outfit, looking quite adorable.

She looked a bit timid and innocent, but for the sake of protecting her companion, she summoned the courage to stand out and shield her friend.

Seeing such a blonde maid suddenly appear, Yukina was about to complain about why the enemy’s reinforcements kept coming one after another to block her, wondering if they were treating her like Sukuna.

But when she saw the blonde maid’s specific features, an expression of immense shock appeared on Yukina’s face.

Without a doubt, she recognized this blonde maid standing in front of Qin Shion.

While her appearance hadn’t reached the level of being unforgettable for a lifetime, at the very least, she left a very deep impression on the current Yukina.

This was because this blonde maid was very active in the stories of the otherworld adventures Charlotte had played for her.

That’s right, this blonde maid was Lillian, the exclusive maid Charlotte had adopted in the other world.

Charlotte had mentioned before that Lillian was picked up at the border of the Kingdom of York during a commission right after she entered the Starsea Magic Academy.

She was originally a lonely dragon girl whose clansmen were slaughtered by the rival Blue Dragon Clan, leaving her no choice but to cross the Boundary Mountain Range and flee to the human side.

Fortunately, she met Charlotte, and since then, she had been taking care of her as Charlotte’s maid.

According to Charlotte, after she used the cross-world magic to come to the real world, her maid Lillian remained in her Star-Track Tower.

Logically, she shouldn’t have appeared in the real world.

Yet now, not only had she appeared in the real world, but she had even positioned herself as Charlotte’s opponent—wasn’t this a total character assassination?

This feeling was as bizarre as a favorite 2D character suddenly jumping into the real world and wanting to have a child with you.

“What on earth is going on?”

Yukina was so stunned she froze in a daze, while Lillian, having shielded Qin Shion, charged at Yukina in a fit of rage, looking ready for a fight.

“To dare bully Lady Shion, unforgivable!”

With that, Lillian rushed forward, throwing a bare-fisted punch toward Yukina.

Snapping back to reality, Yukina hurriedly raised her wooden sword to parry.

Although Lillian’s punch wasn’t particularly fast, she was, after all, a dragon girl from another world.

The power of each punch was exceptionally fierce, much like the Eastern Han boxing champion Li Ru who beat the Young Emperor of Han to death in just a minute.

Even though she blocked the attack, the massive force sent a tremor through Yukina’s hands that wouldn’t stop.

Realizing she might be no match for Lillian at all, Yukina quickly tried to explain.

“Wait a minute, Lillian! This is all a misunderstanding! It’s not what you think!”

“Don’t think I’ll show mercy just because you’re trying to get close to me by calling my name! You bad woman who bullied Lady Shion, take this!”

Saying this, Lillian completely ignored Yukina’s parry and threw a Haymaker directly at Yukina’s face.

The power of this punch was likely enough to make Yukina see her own brains on the spot.

In her desperation, unable to defend or dodge in time, Yukina subconsciously shouted her brother’s name.

“Charlotte!”

The moment the name left her mouth, Lillian’s fist suddenly stopped just two centimeters from Yukina’s nose, though the air pressure from the punch still caused Yukina’s hair to flutter.

Hearing the name “Charlotte,” a look of astonishment instantly appeared on Lillian’s face.

“How do you know my Master’s name?”

Realizing she was finally safe, Yukina breathed a sigh of relief.

“Will you finally listen to me? Listen, Lillian, although I don’t know when you appeared in this world, and you might not know me, I truly know everything about you, because I am the sister of your most respected Lady Charlotte.”

“Lady Charlotte’s sister?”

Hearing this, Lillian frowned slightly, seemingly noticing something was amiss.

Although she knew Lady Charlotte did indeed have a sister named Shaula, she remembered clearly that Shaula was a girl with purple twin-tails.

She was clearly not the same person as this silver-haired sister before her.

However, it was also a fact that this silver-haired girl knew her Master’s name.

Maintaining her suspicion, Lillian continued to press her.

“Then do you know where Lady Charlotte is now? I haven’t been able to find her for a whole month.”

“Eh? A month? Has it been that long?”

Hearing Lillian’s words, it was Yukina’s turn to be bewildered.

Charlotte had only been back for a few days; why did Lillian say she hadn’t seen her for a month?

While this was a very concerning point, Yukina still pointed out the answer to Lillian.

“If you want to know where Lady Charlotte is, you just need to ask that person you were protecting just now; they are the ones who imprisoned your Lady Charlotte.”

“Eh?”

Hearing this, Lillian turned her head in disbelief to stare at the nearby Qin Shion. “Did Lady Shion imprison my Master… Brother?”

“Yes, yes! I came here precisely to rescue her; she is my most important brother, after all!”

Yukina fanned the flames from the side, trying to direct Lillian’s anger toward Qin Shion, completely failing to notice that her subconscious wording was a bit odd.

“Brother?” Lillian paused again, confused.

Her Lady Charlotte was a petite, cute, silver-haired loli under 140cm; why did this silver-haired girl call her Lady Charlotte her “brother”?

Could she not tell that Lady Charlotte was a perfectly normal girl?

Seeing that Lillian had not only stopped her attack but was even standing on the same side as Yukina, casting suspicious looks her way, Qin Shion grew anxious.

‘Is even this little maid going to be flipped by this silver-haired girl? My teammates are throwing the game one after another; is she some kind of irresistible succubus?’

“Lillian, don’t just believe her nonsense! She’s lying to you!”

“Are you going to distrust the companion you’ve known for a month in favor of an enemy you met less than five seconds ago?”

Qin Shion shouted at Lillian at the top of her lungs.

“Lying to me?”

After hearing Qin Shion’s words, Lillian recalled the various suspicious points in Yukina’s earlier statement and suddenly realized she had been deceived.

This person had taken advantage of her concern for Lady Charlotte to weave a web of lies, leading her into a trap step by step.

If not for Lady Shion’s reminder, she might have turned against her former partner.

“Dammit! You actually dared to lie to me, unforgivable!”
