Chapter 161 Ayaka Kamisato's Reward

The girl blinked her blue eyes, and there was a beauty mark at the corner of her left eye. Her willow-leaf eyebrows were covered by thick bangs and were not easily seen.

Her long, silver-white hair was styled into a high ponytail, and the hair tie also had a samurai-style headdress.

She wore a gradient blue haori and a dark blue pleated skirt, with black armor covering her chest and abdomen, and the skirt armor covering the sides of the pleated skirt.

She wore white socks on her delicate little feet, but no shoes because she was indoors.

With her exquisite and beautiful face and dignified and quiet temperament, she truly deserves to be called the eldest daughter of the Kamisato family, who is also known as the White Heron Princess.

Even Lu Lin, who had just spoken so vehemently, couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat.

It seems there's a reason why everyone wants to be a nimble dog in the mountains!

However, Lu Lin felt that being a dog was meaningless; he wanted more.

"Linghua apologizes to Mr. Lu again. The previous tests and probes were unavoidable. I hope you will not take them to heart."

The young girl bowed her head in greeting, gentle and elegant.

Her attitude was quite sincere. First, she really wanted Lu Lin and the others' help. Second, she realized that her previous actions were inappropriate.

She is a gentle and kind girl, which is why she wanted to rebel against the Eye Hunting Order for the sake of the people of Inazuma.

However, since she is, after all, a young lady from a prestigious family, she inevitably carries some of the habits of aristocrats and is not so down-to-earth, which is understandable.

Lu Lin actually understood her. He didn't care about these things at all. The reason he suddenly launched an attack was just to gain the upper hand and make it easier to negotiate terms later.

Another reason is that I want to see what the mysterious egret princess looks like.

Now that we've seen it, his attitude has softened considerably.

"Alright, I'd like to ask Miss Linghua, you said you wanted us to join you in resisting the Eye Hunt Order, what are your specific plans?"

"Hmm..." Linghua hesitated for a moment and sighed softly, "To be honest, no!"

"We have repeatedly proposed abolishing the Eye Hunting Edict in the name of the Company Magistrate, but it has been rejected by the Heavenly Territory Magistrate and the Surveying Magistrate. Now we can only..."

Linghua didn't finish her sentence, after all, the two sides hadn't established enough trust yet.

"Minimize the losses caused by the Eye Hunt Order? For example, hide the owner of the Eye of God, or create a fake Eye of God to replace the real one." Lu Lin continued her sentence, making a startling statement.

These words truly startled Ayaka and Thomas, as these were all highly confidential matters.

"You... how did you know?!" In her surprise, Ayaka couldn't even maintain her composure as a young lady.

"I also know that there is a master named Zheng Sheng who is good at making fake God's Eyes. He has been arrested by the people of Tianling Enforcement."

"Huh? You know that too?!"

"Hmm, my intelligence gathering skills are not bad." Lu Lin calmly picked up his teacup and took a sip.

“I also have some ideas on how to resist the Eye Hunt Order, but…” Lu Lin changed the subject and said, “The most urgent task is to save Master Zheng Sheng first.”

"The Shinri family is not in a position to intervene in this matter. To show our sincerity in cooperating, how about we handle it?"

"Then thank you very much for your help, Mr. Lu!" Linghua was just worrying about how to save the person, and Lu Lin's suggestion was exactly what she wanted.

Rescuing people is not difficult. Lu Lin did not go himself, but arranged for Ying and Paimon to go to Hanamisaka to find someone to help based on the clues given by Ayaka.

Seeing that Ying and Paimon had left, but Lu Lin was left alone, Linghua asked in confusion, "Is there anything else, Mr. Lu?"

“Well, I’d like to talk to you about the plan to resist the Eyehunting Order, and the specific rewards.” Lu Lin said, glancing at Thomas beside him.

The housekeeper was quite perceptive; she claimed she had something to do and left first.

He wasn't worried about Lu Lin and Ling Hua having any problems together, since this was the Shenli family home, what problems could possibly arise?

"What good ideas does Mr. Lu have?" Linghua asked earnestly after Thomas left.

She really wanted to do it, but defying the Eye Hunting Order was tantamount to directly defying General Thunder.

This was already unimaginable for the magistrate serving the general, let alone coming up with a feasible plan.

"First, you need to understand the root of the Eye Hunting Edict, and why the Heavenly Commander and the Imperial Commissioner are so disregarding public opinion and determined to push forward the implementation of the Eye Hunting Edict."

"why?"

With no one else around, Linghua seemed much more relaxed and stopped paying attention to the etiquette of a lady from a prestigious family. She tilted her head and looked at Lu Lin's face like a curious child.

This adorable gesture made Lu Lin smile.

Linghua realized her lapse in composure and immediately straightened up, sitting upright.

A hint of panic and confusion flashed through the girl's mind. She usually only relaxed a little in front of people she was very familiar with. She had only just met Lu Lin, so why was she so relaxed?

Looking at Lu Lin's cold and handsome face, her thoughts were churning.

He is indeed very handsome and charming, which is probably why I unconsciously relaxed.

The phrase "elegant and charming" continues to gain momentum, and Linghua's affection for Lu Lin has been steadily increasing. Even though Lu Lin had previously criticized her, it didn't leave any negative impression.

Linghua, on the contrary, thought what he said made a lot of sense.

The positive impression filter brought by the entry has greatly improved Lu Lin's image.

"I wonder if Miss Linghua has ever heard of the Evil Eye?"

"No." The girl shook her head.

"The Evil Eye is something produced by the Fools, similar to the Eye of God. It can grant ordinary people great power, but at the cost of depleting their life force."

Under normal circumstances, no one would use something like this, but what if war breaks out?

"After the Eye Hunting Edict was issued, those who refused to obey fled to Umijima Island and formed a resistance army that fought against the Shogunate army..." Ayaka, quick-witted as ever, had her mind opened. "You mean, the Fatui want to use this to promote the Evil Eye?!"

"That's right!"

"But the Eye Hunting Order was personally issued by the General. How could they possibly have pushed for its promulgation? Could it be that someone among the Heavenly Commander and the Survey Commissioner is colluding with the Fools?"

The only people who could influence the general's decisions were the three censors!

Linghua was shocked once again. There was actually a traitor among the three officials who served General Raiden!

"Hehe, more specific information will require payment, Miss Ayaka."

"Mr. Lu's intelligence is crucial to Inazuma's life, so charging a fee is only reasonable. May I ask how much Mora, or other resources, Mr. Lu desires?"

"Hehe, I don't need Mora, nor do I need any resources. What I want in return is—Miss Linghua!" Lu Lin said, surprising everyone.

Eh?

I? !

Ayaka Kamisato never expected that Lu Lin would suddenly say something so... indescribable.

As a renowned princess from a prestigious family, she naturally had many admirers, but no one had ever dared to say such a thing to her face!

That's so frivolous!

But why do I not feel any aversion to it?

Linghua blushed instantly when she saw Lu Lin's serious gaze.

Chapter 162 Linghua's Passionate Kiss (7/22)

"Mr. Lu... Mr. Lu, please don't joke like that." Lu Lin's directness caught Linghua off guard, and she stammered as she spoke.

This was the first time in her life she had been teased, and Pianpian felt absolutely no embarrassment towards him; it was just too embarrassing!

"I'm not joking. Miss Linghua is so beautiful, gentle, and kind-hearted. It's hard for me not to be moved."

"Mr. Lu, please...please don't say such things. Linghua will not use herself as a bargaining chip!" Although she didn't actually dislike Lu Lin, Linghua composed herself and refused with a serious expression.

However, the lingering blush on her face made her serious expression seem less convincing.

So cute, like a tempting apple.

"Ah, that's a real pity." Lu Lin's expression showed no regret at all. He laughed and said, "Then forget it, I won't accept any payment."

Eh? !

You don't want it anymore?

Or does he mean he doesn't want anyone but me?

Lu Lin's sudden turn of events caught Linghua off guard, leaving her completely bewildered.

She was thinking about how to negotiate with Lu Lin to get the payment more reasonable when he suddenly refused to accept it again!

What is this person thinking? Their thinking is so unpredictable!

In fact, Lu Lin never intended to receive any reward, let alone use it to blackmail Linghua.

He simply wanted to tease this beautiful and dignified noblewoman. With the description of her as "elegant and charming," he wasn't afraid of ruining his image.

"Mr. Lu's information is extremely valuable; it wouldn't be appropriate for us to just take it for free. Perhaps we should..."

"How about Ayaka herself serves as the payment?"

"Mr. Lu!" The girl pouted and glared at him angrily.

"Hehe, Ayaka is willing to fight against General Raiden for the sake of the Inazuma people, so it's nothing for me to provide some intelligence. The matter of payment is settled, let's talk about the specific plan."

Lu Lin flattered her and then changed the subject, so Linghua stopped worrying about the reward.

Lu Lin had a clear understanding of the ins and outs of the whole incident and had already made a plan in mind.

Now that he had laid out all his intelligence and ideas, the princess from the prestigious family listened with great interest.

“Alright! Let’s proceed according to Mr. Lu’s plan. The Society’s Executive Director will provide as much assistance as possible!” Ayaka nodded solemnly, announcing the official start of the cooperation between the two parties.

[Ding! Random quest triggered: Thousand Hands and Hundred Eyes, Under Heaven and Earth]

[Mission Objective: Help the Inazuma people fight against the Eye Hunting Order and persuade General Raiden to cancel the Eye Hunting Order and the Isolation Order!]

[Task Rewards: 5 million Mora, 10,000 points, 5,000 experience points, one randomly assigned keyword, and one use of the "Creation from Nothing" keyword!]

The rewards for this mission are quite generous, which means the mission is very difficult, but Lu Lin is very confident.

He stood up, ready to proceed according to plan.

"Mr. Lu, please be careful!" Linghua stood up to see him off, but Lu Lin suddenly stopped.

“Miss Linghua, although I don’t want any reward, my feelings for you are genuine.”

Lu Lin paused, his expression turning serious: "Fighting General Thunder is fraught with danger, and we may face mortal peril at any moment. Before I depart, I... I have a wish."

"What is your wish?" His words made Linghua's mood heavy. Fighting against the gods was not so easy; sacrifice could happen at any time.

"Can I kiss you?" Lu Lin looked directly into the silver-haired girl's eyes, his gaze filled with unwavering affection.

Eh?

Do you...do you want a kiss?

Linghua was at a loss for words. Her good aristocratic upbringing told her that she should refuse this impolite request.

But looking into Lu Lin's affectionate eyes, her heart couldn't help but flutter.

What does kissing actually feel like?

If it were Lu Lin, a kiss wouldn't really be a big deal, right?

An ambiguous atmosphere began to slowly develop, but Ayaka remained silent for a long time.

For questions like these, not answering them often already provides the answer.

Lu Lin took the girl's hesitation as tacit approval. He knew that due to the influence of the entry and his repeated efforts to pull her along, the girl's goodwill towards him should have increased considerably.

It shouldn't be a problem to splurge a little, right?

These chaotic thoughts flashed through Lu Lin's mind, eventually coalescing into the courage to bow his head.

The two were already very close, and Lu Lin put his hand on Ling Hua's shoulder and leaned down to kiss her.

She didn't hide.

The girl carried a faint fragrance, fresh and elegant, not intoxicating but capable of igniting the fire in Lu Lin's heart.

The moist and soft touch captivated Lu Lin. He parted the girl's pearly teeth, caught her soft little tongue, and tried his best to capture its sweet aroma.

Their lips intertwined, their breathing gradually quickening.

"Mmm~" A soft, delicate tone escaped from Linghua's lips.
