Chapter 17 refers to the Ring Battle (Part 3)
Having prepared farewell gifts for everyone in advance, the idle Yaochuan Ling volunteered to take Yiping, Lanbo, and Futa out to play.
"Thank you for your hard work, Sister Xiaoling. I'll take it."
Feng Tai was always steady and sensible, and he consciously took on the weight of all the things they bought.
"Okay, thank you, Futa."
She handed the bag to Fuuta, holding Ippei in one arm and Fuuta's hand in the other, with Lambo still hanging on her head.
After a day of playing, Lambo was still full of energy, while Ippin fell asleep in her arms.
When she reached the fork in the road, the elf twitched her ears. The tree told her that there were several enemies lying in ambush, but her friends would be arriving soon.
Then she won't participate. Let's see how everyone's training is going lately.
She conjured vines to guide them, and whispered a few words to Feng Tai, the gist of which was that he shouldn't be afraid when he saw strangers, and his task was to protect the snacks he brought back.
Today when I went to the amusement park, I discovered a new dessert shop that had opened nearby. The pastry chef was a gentle young man with blue cat eyes, and he seemed to have a good relationship with the blond, dark-skinned waiter next to him.
A wealthy man who wasn't short of money bought all the small cakes in the store.
After the whole family had finished dividing the food, Lambo, who was greedy and wanted two portions, got a flick on the forehead from Yao Chuanling.
"Mr. Midorikawa, are you really not considering becoming my personal pastry chef?"
The greedy elf, still harboring treacherous intentions, wanted to simply steal the person away.
She put on a pitiful look, but her usual tricks were rejected for the first time.
"Feel sorry."
Morofushi Kagemitsu, who was on a mission and using the alias Midorikawa Hikaru, smiled helplessly, his smile both gentle and resolute.
"If you like, I'll make you a few more tomorrow."
Because of his kind nature, he always felt embarrassed to refuse others, so he tried to make amends.
Amuro intervened to defuse the situation, jokingly saying, "If they really poach the pastry chef, then I, as a waiter, will be out of a job."
Yaochuan Ling thought that she would soon be gone, and besides, if there were more people in the house, Gongya might kick her out as well.
This is just delaying people's time.
Because of her affection for the creature, the fairy decided to let go.
They happily left after ordering a cake for tomorrow.
This cake is very important; we might never be able to eat it again, so she instructed Feng Tai to take good care of it.
Feng obediently protected the bag.
Little Ling is indeed the number one foodie in Namimori.
Faced with the man in black who appeared before her, Yao Chuanling silently counted down for ten seconds in her mind.
very good.
Brother Liaoping's boxing skills have improved.
A-Wu's sword has become sharp.
Hayato's bombs have been upgraded.
Sawada Tsunayoshi arrived breathless, and Yokawa Rei took the opportunity to hand Lambo, who was fussing about going to sleep, to him.
The calf with the afro was moving around wildly, and you could vaguely see the Thunder Ring hidden in his hair.
They actually entrusted it to Lambo, who is only five years old and doesn't understand anything.
Only then did the elf realize the choice of Thunder Guardian and begin to worry.
"The main course is here."
She said.
The previous group was just an appetizer; the real main event is this group now.
Even from afar, you could sense that the atmosphere was different.
There was also an acquaintance inside, the guy who ran away halfway through the fight with her last time.
Sawada Tsunayoshi was deeply frightened just by seeing that face.
"Who's holding the rain ring? Is it you, little girl?"
"Squalo asked loudly."
He was quite looking forward to finishing the battle with her that they hadn't finished last time.
"It's me."
Yamamoto Takeshi stood behind Yokawa Rei, answering with a cold face.
There has always been a rumor circulating in the community: although Yamamoto Takeshi of the baseball club is gentle and easy-going, he is extremely competitive and never willing to accept defeat.
He looked at Squalo, his eyes gleaming with a storm brewing.
Squalo didn't believe that this kid, who hadn't even practiced swordsmanship, could have made any progress in just a few days. Upon hearing this, he boasted that he would cut him into pieces in three seconds.
"Get out of here."
A tall man with scars on his face and dark red eyes walked up behind him, and it was easy to tell that he was the leader of these people.
The other person looked down at him with a fierce and imposing gaze, and Sawada Tsunayoshi was startled again, falling to the ground.
This person is definitely the mafia among mafia.
Thinking that she probably wouldn't be able to eat the cake that night, Yao Chuanling, adhering to the principle of taking a bite while she could, immediately opened the packaging and took a bite.
Tsuna and his friends are still too inexperienced.
When she and Sesshomaru were still cubs, Abe no Seimei took them to see countless imposing figures like these in order to toughen them up.
She's almost immune to it now.
"At a time like this, you still have the mood to eat cake?"
Even though he was frightened, Sawada Tsunayoshi did not forget his job as the straight man.
Could it be that they're thinking, since they're already facing death, there's no point in struggling anymore, so they might as well just give up?
Oh dear, he doesn't want to die.
"How rude of me." She ate her cake leisurely, even offering XANXUS one: "Want some?"
Mainly because he was watching her eat, she felt a little embarrassed.
"Rubbish."
This is the guy Squalo was talking about? He looks so dumb. Even Squalo is starting to act stupid.
XANXUS looked away, bored.
The arrogant young master refused the cake. In his opinion, he was already being very kind to Reborn by not immediately dealing with all the brats in front of him, cake and all.
As expected.
She was just going through the motions.
The elf, who felt he had given him face, rolled his eyes without any politeness.
"Hehehe, little girl, you're the first person to dare roll your eyes at our boss. The prince has a bit of a crush on you."
Across from him, a blond-haired boy wearing a crown let out a sharp laugh, while the man with a mustache next to him looked furious.
The baby Mammon, who was the same size as Reborn, said with great distress, "Boss, that's 1800 yen! If you don't want it, you might as well give it to me."
He couldn't bear to eat the 1800 yen cake; he'd rather take it and return it to the dessert shop, getting 1800 yen for free.
Mamon felt increasingly heartbroken and declared that he would consider letting them go if they were willing to pay him a large sum of money.
"Shut up! It's so noisy."
XANXUS roared, gathering flames in his hands and aiming them at Sawada Tsunayoshi and the others.
Yao Chuanling quickly erected a protective shield.
This collective attack was so powerful that it felt like the surrounding air was being scalded.
The cream on the cake has started to melt. It's definitely inedible.
Fortunately, a flying shovel interrupted XUANXUS's charge-up.
The person who came was an older man whom Yao Chuanling had met once before.
"dad?!"
This sound came from Sawada Tsunayoshi.
"dad?!"
This sound came from Yokawa Rei and Gokudera Hayato.
So this really is Tsuna's father. The spirit who once held a knife to the other's neck guiltily looked away.
She knew that Nana's mother had been very happy these past few days, but she didn't expect it was because her husband, who had been away from home for a long time, had returned.
Sawada Iemitsu had no time to talk to her. Holding the Ninth Boss's decree, he announced that a duel would take place between Sawada Tsunayoshi and XANXUS, with the winner becoming the successor to the Vongola.
Two dark-skinned, pink-haired twin sisters jumped down from the tree, their expressions obscured by blindfolds.
They also produced documents bearing the inscription "Flame of Determination," claiming to be directly under the Ninth Generation's Cerbero Agency.
That's a lie.
The elves sensed the presence of their guides in them, a feeling they hadn't felt in a long time.
"Don't forget what you promised me."
The guide's indifferent voice echoed in her mind.
—I was tricked.
He must not be hindered from doing what he wants to do until he finds the original fragment.
Therefore, it cannot be spoken of.
Ever since she discovered that this world was not an ordinary world, she realized that the guide was on guard against her, but she never expected that he had been monitoring her all along.
She understands, but disagrees.
That very night, she went to find him in her dreams.
"A rare guest indeed."
He calmly pushed up his glasses and gestured for her to sit opposite him.
"You're not surprised at all."
Yao Chuanling sat down with a stern face: "You can't spy on me."
This is undoubtedly an offense to her.
Influenced by Izanami, Sesshomaru, and others, even the usually easygoing and lively spirits are proud at heart.
His emerald eyes were filled with displeasure.
"I'm sorry, but it's my duty. I have to monitor all of you, all those who own pacifiers and rings."
Yao Chuanling is a huge uncertainty. Of course, he has to keep her under control.
The monitors of this world have nothing to hide.
But...
She's leaving in a few days, so a few days less or more won't make much difference. I might as well do her a favor.
"I won't deliberately monitor you anymore."
He emphasized the word "deliberate." If you accidentally get implicated, don't blame him.
“In the battle for the ring, Cerberus cannot restrict my movements.”
The battle for the ring is a life-or-death duel, and she doesn't want her friends to die in the struggle.
Especially Tsuna.
He clearly didn't want to become a member of the mafia; he just wanted to be an ordinary person. Yet, he was constantly forced to grow up and move forward against his will.
At the very beginning, Sawada Tsunayoshi was just a weak and easily bullied good-for-nothing.
"We won't interfere with your rescue efforts, but only after the outcome is decided."
He understood what Yao Chuanling wanted to do; she simply didn't want her friends to die. Fortunately, he only cared about the result: choosing the strongest person to inherit the Vongola Rings.
He coveted the Heart of Life in the elf's hand; with it, the curse of the pacifier could be lifted, and there would be no need to select another group of people every now and then.
"No way. Reborn is my friend, what do I care about the others?"
As expected, I was rejected.
Yao Chuanling isn't stupid; she wouldn't agree to a request that offers her no benefit whatsoever.
She was afraid he would start rambling on and on, so she quickly left.
Goodbye, Gakafis.
