the next day……
Jiang Mu woke up and, feeling the sensations on both arms, fell into deep thought.
Then, he slowly pulled back his blanket.
Hmm, not bad, two little cuties... my foot!
Jiang Mu was so scared he almost lost his mind!
Soul: ?(;′Д`?) (\/?Д?)\/
"Mmm..."
Seemingly because the warm blankets had been pulled back, one of the little ones pouted in dissatisfaction, grabbed Jiang Mu's arm, and arched its whole body upwards...
"Ding dong! Dear host, the system notifies you that you have successfully captured a cute little creature, Seele!"
"What the hell!" Jiang Mu's face darkened...
"Friendly reminder: This system is informing the host that there is a cute little creature waiting to be captured to your right!"
Jiang Mu: "..."
With a sullen expression, Jiang Mu subconsciously raised his right arm...
Hmm, not bad, another adorable Seele...
What's going on?!
It multiplied?
It's split up?
He's got women on both sides?
"Mmm..."
As if stimulated by the light, the girl slightly opened her eyes, and then... she saw Jiang Mu's lecherous gaze...
"Oh~" A hint of mockery appeared in the girl's blood-red eyes, and then she said in a sweet voice.
"Captain, what do you intend to do to Seele...?"
"Or perhaps..."
Xiao Hei slightly pulled open his collar...
"I want to see it more clearly..."
"Cough cough..." Jiang Mu quickly turned his face away.
"Little Black, stop fooling around, Seele is right here..."
As he spoke, Jiang Mu pointed to Xi'er, who was fast asleep beside him.
"Captain, what are you saying? Seele and I..." But when her eyes caught sight of Seele, who was snoring softly, her gaze suddenly narrowed...
"How could this be..."
“I don’t quite understand either…” Jiang Mu shook his head, “But, this is a good thing for you…”
"Good news?" Little Black tilted his head, looking puzzled.
“In that case…” Jiang Mu chuckled, “you won’t be bound by the identity of ‘Xi’er’ anymore, and you can do what you want to do…”
"The thing I want to do..." Xiao Hei's eyes widened slightly.
"Yes," Jiang Mu nodded with a smile, "Aren't you excited?"
"Yeah, I'm so excited..." Xiao Hei lowered his head and said quietly, "So, Captain, you said I could do whatever I wanted, right..."
“Uh…” Jiang Mu was a little surprised, but still nodded. “Of course, unless it’s something illegal or disorderly, everything else is fine…”
"Alright!" Upon hearing this, Little Black stuck out its little tongue and licked the corner of its mouth...
"Well then, Captain, it's time for us to begin!"
Xiao Hei: ?(ˉ﹃ˉ?)
Ginger: (￣口￣)!! ヽ(゜ロ゜;)ノ
"Hey, Xiao Hei, what are you doing!"
At that moment, Seele, who had just woken up, saw the two people in front of her and, without even asking what was going on, rushed over and pulled them apart...
………………
After the farce, Xi'er and Xiao Hei obediently got dressed and knelt on their beds, while Jiang Mu stood with his hands on his hips, looking at the two with an unfriendly expression.
"Speak, explain what happened," Jiang Mu said seriously, looking at the two of them.
"this……"
Seele: (′? ??`)？?
(￣～￣;)……
(`???′+)！ ！ ！
"Smack!"
"ah!"
A gentle chop to the head shattered Seele's hopes of getting away with it by being cute.
"No cutesy behavior allowed. Confess and you'll be treated leniently; resist and you'll be punished severely!" Jiang Mu said sternly.
“Okay…” Seele stuck out her tongue, looked at Jiang Mu, and told him about the strange things that had been happening to her recently.
"Why didn't you tell me about something this important sooner!"
Jiang Mu looked at Xi'er and said seriously.
"Well..." Seele lowered her head and said softly, "Because Captain seems to be very busy lately..."
"I..." Jiang Mu was both heartbroken and moved.
Stepping forward, Jiang Mu gently embraced Xi'er and said earnestly.
"Next time this happens, you must tell me immediately! I don't care how busy I am, do you hear me!"
As he finished speaking, Jiang Mu's tone became increasingly stern.
"yes……"
Hearing Jiang Mu's words, Xi'er nodded, but still looked at Jiang Mu with a pitiful expression...
"well……"
Jiang Mu realized that his tone had been a bit harsh, so he patted Xi'er's head and said softly.
"I know you mean well, but really, Seele, I hope this never happens to anyone around me again. No matter what the mission is, nothing is more important to me than you, you know that?"
"I...I understand..."
Seele's face suddenly turned bright red, and she stammered, unable to speak, while Little Black chuckled beside her.
"Oh my, Captain is so domineering! Look how you've charmed our little Seele, she's completely smitten..."
"Little Black!" Seele pouted, displeased.
………………
While the two were playfully bickering, Jiang Mu quickly asked the system.
"System, do you know what caused Seele's current condition?"
Jiang Mu didn't think it was a bad thing, but she was worried that splitting Xiao Hei apart like this might pose a threat to the two of them.
As if sensing Jiang Mu's inner thoughts, the cunning system actually spoke up to comfort him.
"Host, please rest assured that when you held them in your arms, this system had already checked their physical condition and found no abnormalities."
"That's good..." Hearing this, Jiang Mu breathed a sigh of relief, but soon felt that something was wrong.
"What do you mean I held them in my arms? It was clearly..."
"Dear host, this system has saved the recording here. Would you like to take a look?"
Ginger: (?д?╬)
system:(???.????)
………………
After discussions, Xiao Hei decided to become an adventurer like Xi'er. Jiang Mu had no objections to this.
Just kidding, with Xiao Hei's fighting prowess, one swing of that big claw...
Don't ask Jiang Mu how he knew; the answer is he experienced it himself back then...
Of course, it wasn't that I had personally experienced the power of those claws hitting me, but rather that I had witnessed Little Black beating up a Honkai Beast...
Even the Honkai Beasts, being silicon-based lifeforms, couldn't withstand a single claw from Kuro, let alone these Hilichurls with their tiny bodies...
Cough cough, nothing to worry about...
From that day on, adventurers in Mondstadt constantly talked about the pair of twin adventurers. Not just because of their beauty, but even more so because of their terrifying strength…
After that, the elder of the twin sisters even made it onto the "Mundo's Strongest Warriors" ranking list...
