From the moment Leah rushed out of the hall, Eko sensed that something was wrong.
In addition, when Leah came back, her face was unusually flushed.
When Aiko asked what had happened, Lia replied in a flustered and confused manner, "I-I definitely didn't do anything wrong with Linda in the bathroom!"
What!
Aiko was shocked; it seemed as if the wheelchair beneath her had collapsed.
Even though Lulu was ahead of her, Ai Ke could still comfort herself by saying that Lulu had the advantage of being closer to the source, and there was nothing she could do about it.
But Leah, at the very back of the starting line, was in last place...
Iko can accept losing to anyone else.
Leah is the only exception.
If Io lost to Leah, I'd rather hang myself!
That's so damn embarrassing!
Aiko was getting anxious.
She was ready to make her move.
Today, we will completely win over Linda.
He made a dramatic turnaround, gaining a decisive advantage and surpassing Leah and the werewolf!
...
A little while later, Eko and Linda arrived at Monica's room.
The two people inside were playing a board game that Chrona had brought.
Linda glanced at the board and saw that Monica's red pieces had a significant advantage and were just one move away from defeating Krona.
In gaming, Monica is extremely talented and completely outclasses Chrona.
This was clearly not what Chrona had expected; her eyes welled up with tears, and she was about to cry!
Chrona came to 'show off', boasting of being a gaming expert for many years, but when she met Monica, she was completely dumbfounded.
During the puppet battle, her puppet was strung up into the air by Monica and wouldn't fall. What was supposed to be a thrilling match turned out to be a one-sided beating for Chrona.
The time it takes to end a puppet duel depends solely on how much health Chrona's puppet has...
Unwilling to give up, Chrona took out her favorite board game, "Hero x Dragon," from her rabbit-head pouch, hoping to regain her honor and show Monica what she was capable of!
but!
Krona was beaten and cried again.
I can't win, I can't win at all. This isn't a game, it's a one-sided torture!
Compared to that, playing with Leah is still more fun... Chrona thought with a wronged expression.
"Alright, I'm not playing with you anymore." Chrona put away the board game with a dark expression and immediately undoed her moves.
Monica, however, was timid and dared not say anything. She was just happy to have someone to play with.
"Captain." Monica smiled when she saw Linda, went over and took Linda's hand, and the two sat down on the sofa together.
Chrona raised an eyebrow, stood up abruptly, and glared at Monica. That was her spot; she used to use Linda's legs as a pillow while reading comic books!
Eko coughed and gave Chrona a wink.
Before she came, Ai Ke had already told her: if she didn't want Linda to continue to hate her, she should stop being willful.
With Ike's reminder, Chrona held back.
She took out a sketchbook, walked arrogantly up to Linda, her pink pigtails swaying, and said:
"This is my masterpiece! I'm taking pity on you and letting you see it today!"
"Cough cough."
Eko coughed again, reminding Chrona to watch her tone.
If you want to win back Linda's favor, you don't have to be better than Monica, but you can't be too much worse.
Look at Monica, she's such a model child! Obedient, well-behaved, and even knows how to care for the captain:
After Linda sat down, Monica noticed that Linda's shoulders were stiff, so she took the initiative to massage them vigorously from behind. Her soft little hands and gentle pressure made Linda squint her eyes in enjoyment.
And look at you, Chrona, you're good for nothing except causing trouble for Linda!
While heavily armored warriors are useful for fighting monsters, Monica's cannons are no joke either.
In comparison, Monica is the clear winner!
Krona's arrogance vanished instantly. She walked awkwardly to Linda and handed her the sketchbook she was holding: "Linda, take a look at my masterpiece."
A barely perceptible smile flashed in Linda's eyes as she took the picture book.
The cover of the picture book is very simple, made of stick figures drawn with crayons. You can roughly make out that the person on the cover is a little girl with pink pigtails.
Linda glanced at Chrona, who looked nervous, her little hands fidgeting with her cheeks and playing with her hair, like a primary school student waiting for exam results.
The girl on the cover was modeled after herself? Linda thought to herself as she looked at the picture book again. The title of this little book was 'The Strongest Adventurer Begins by Leaving the Party'.
The story tells of the protagonist 'Krena' who leaves the party after a conflict with them, and then returns proudly after leveling up 10 times in the World Tree.
The captain begged Kleina to go back, but Kleina yelled at him, "Get out of here, you worthless captain!"
After experiencing a series of events, Klena gradually realized that she also had some problems. She shouldn't have insulted others so easily, and sometimes the captain's discipline was correct and she should have listened to him.
Finally, Klena returned to the group, the captain became her servant, and the members resumed their joyful adventures.
Linda: ...
It's really speechless.
Could it be that Chrona showed this to herself to show off her growth?
The person who plays the 'captain' in the picture book is probably myself.
In the end, he was overwhelmed by the protagonist 'Kreina's' immense power and became her lowly servant, always at her beck and call, responsible for doing her laundry, cooking for her, and buying her various toys and comic books...
They haven't grown at all!
Linda was both amused and exasperated.
"How was it?" Chrona asked, her hands behind her back, her eyes filled with anticipation, looking like she was about to praise her.
But Linda's face darkened, and she put down her sketchbook.
"Have you been diligently cultivating these past few days? You've been sneaking around reading comic books and playing magic handheld games late at night again, haven't you?"
"They've only been gone for a little over a month, and they've already become lawless."
"This catalog... is also terrible, extremely terrible!"
Linda criticized him mercilessly.
Chrona was stunned.
Who would have thought that Linda, who is always a kind-hearted person, would say such cold words.
Chrona twitched her nostrils, and tiny pearls welled up in her eyes.
She stayed up all night for so long, and the thing she drew was criticized by Linda as worthless!
Chrona worked hard for half a month to prepare for this day!
Linda let Chrona drop the small pearls, her face expressionless and unmoved.
His earlier indulgence and pampering of Chrona caused her to grow into a crooked tree.
Fortunately, there is still a chance to straighten the tree.
But we have to be swift and decisive, cutting off all the crooked parts of the tree.
Even if Linda was reluctant, she had to let her big stick fall on Chrona's butt.
The first lesson he taught Chrona was that 'effort doesn't always guarantee success'.
The picture book that Chrona had put a lot of effort into making did not receive good reviews from him.
"Captain, you're so fierce!" Monica was terrified, her little hands too scared to move, and she stopped massaging Linda's shoulders.
Linda has always been a gentle captain towards her.
