Looking at the "white" that enveloped his entire body, Wende let out a long breath. Although he had a feeling Kafka's move wouldn't have really hurt him, he had still used it subconsciously…
Well, I can't rule out the possibility that I just wanted to use it myself.
His original casual clothes were once again replaced by the risqué, ink-wash-styled long robe. His short hair transformed into long hair held up by a guan-style crown, and a longsword with a white hilt and black blade appeared in his hand.
Wende suddenly frowned. He sensed an aura, one that also possessed the power of Yin and Yang, rushing in this direction. However, it seemed that figure had rather short legs. Why were they taking a detour? Couldn't they just flip over the obstacle?
With a casual tap on the panel, Wende switched back to his [Abundance] form.
Since someone was coming to "sanction" Kafka, there was no need for him to make a big move. Besides, the timing wasn't right. If he used his five-star template now… what if the players developed aesthetic fatigue later on? He still needed to farm those Favorability points!
Though, if Wende knew that the horde of animals in reality were already drawing all sorts of doujinshi and making MMDs of him, he might have chosen to just rip off his shirt. That might have increased his Favorability points even faster.
Although… with the five-star template's outfit, did taking off the top even make a difference?
The black smoke dissipated, and Wende's figure emerged from it completely unharmed. A flicker of regret passed through Kafka's eyes, but amidst the astonished expressions of the others, she helped the Stelle in her arms to her feet and gently straightened her slightly messy collar.
Kafka glanced at Wende and said softly to Stelle.
Stelle nodded obediently, then walked toward Wende, looking back every three steps.
Although she had no memory of Kafka, she could feel that this woman would not harm her. Moreover, she could feel that Kafka "loved" her.
"Kafka…" Stelle said hesitantly to the beautiful woman before her.
"Relax, I'll tell you everything… it's just that…"
Seeing Kafka raise her twin pistols, March immediately threw a shield made of Six-Phased Ice in front of Wende and Stelle.
The smile on Kafka's face widened. She then raised the black-and-white pistols above her head and fired every bullet in their magazines.
A petite figure flashed swiftly through the air.
"Heh… petty parlor tricks."
The figure weaved through the storm of bullets like a lost butterfly, dodging and altering the trajectory of the projectiles.
"Your every move… is under the observation of the Omen-Seeing Eye!"
The crisp sound of bullet casings hitting the ground echoed. The small and elegant figure descended from the air and, under the gazes of everyone present, slowly rose to her feet. Check latest chapters at novel~fire~net
Kafka smiled and tossed her twin pistols to the ground, as if she had been waiting for this very moment all along.
"Divination Commission, Fu Xuan. The wanted criminal will now be taken into my custody."
The young girl named Fu Xuan spoke slowly.
After restraining Kafka and ignoring the smirk on her lips, Fu Xuan turned to face the members of the trailblazing team, her gaze landing especially on… Wende.
"Members of the Express Crew, it is a pleasure to meet you for the first time. Or perhaps I should say, I have already foreseen you all. This one is one of the Six Charioteers of the Xianzhou, the Master Diviner of the Divination Commission, Fu Xuan."
Shifting her gaze away from Wende, Fu Xuan formally introduced herself to the crew.
[Sister Guoguo, wipe your drool. Keyboards aren't waterproof…]
[Sigh, we know you're into this type. Your eyes are practically glued to those white stockings!]
[Slurp, slurp! Hehe, the Master Diviner's feet are so small and smooth. She has two little feet, and I just happen to have one mouth. How can such a coincidence exist in this world!]
[So, has anyone noticed that Sister Guoguo is also wearing white stockings today?]
[You beast! That's your brother! You can get horny over him?]
[Brother? It's because he's my brother! That I have to stab him twice as hard!]
"Nonsense! I was clearly just lost in the throes of my mother's love for me, unable to extricate myself! I'm not a lolicon! How could I possibly kind of seemingly tsundere, pink-haired, white-stockinged, Xianzhou-style little loli! My XP… my XP is dancing, ahhhh!"
[Tingting! Stop squirming! We still need to watch the story…]
[Bros, let me know when Sister Guoguo is done squirming, I'm gonna go check on the doggy.]
"Wuuuuu… Nooo! I don't want to leave Mommy Kafka! Daddy Wende! Quickly use your invincible five-star form to save her! Give your child a complete home! Waaaaahhhh!"
In the Doggy's stream, a furry dog avatar was wailing tearfully. Anyone who didn't know what was going on would think a real tragedy had occurred. It was truly a scene that made listeners grieve and viewers weep…
[Doggy, I gotta ask, how did you manage to cry so hard you made Wende and Kafka sound like a divorced couple?]
[Why do I feel is the 'Entrusting Son at Baidicheng' scene?]
[Trailblazer: Are you being polite?]
[Kafka: Kaf... one must not... rally troops on the verge of battle...]
[If you keep this up I'm going to give Sanguosha a positive review! I'm serious!]
[Wuwuwu, she really loves me, and he really loves me too. Since our goal is the same, why can't we be together!?]
[What kind of scumbag line is that!]
In Shiluoluo's stream.
The beautiful girl, wearing a green cat-eared jacket, was staring intently at the composition on the screen. The brush in her hand flew across the drawing tablet at the speed of light, a dazzling display!
[Shuo, let's take a break. You've been staring at this scene and drawing for ten minutes straight, rest a bit, okay!]
[So this is… what it looks like when inspiration strikes? I love it, I love it!]
After the new story for Star Rail was released, the once-heretical ship of Wende x Kafka somehow suddenly became a publicly acknowledged CP, even hitting the trending list on AC Station.
Originally, some people were still questioning this behavior of shipping characters, calling it wrong, immoral, and unfair.
But then, they saw the Trailblazer nestled in the arms of the two, and instantly lost all will to argue.
[Yes, yes, yes, I approve of this ship! I especially and particularly approve!]
[What are you approving of! In reality you just want to go for both of them, right!]
[Anyone who opposes this clearly doesn't know how to play the game ( )]
[Once again, I feel that my XP is completely incompatible with you all…]
All sorts of outrageous fan creations about the Kafka and Wende family rose up once again.
According to a certain well-known anime shenanigans streamer, a Star Rail Family Pretend project was already in the works…
