Gradually, Zeyan finally finished a plate of mixed fried noodles under Yoimiya's feeding.
Yoimiya also let out a long breath at this time, then picked up the fried noodles from the other plate and started eating them herself. She hadn't eaten while feeding Zeyan.
"Ah... those chopsticks." Zeyan subconsciously called out upon seeing this.
Yoimiya was startled by Zeyan's voice, then looked at the chopsticks in her hand, her face instantly turning a deep red.
These were the chopsticks she had used to feed Zeyan. She had forgotten to change them.
Her face flushed, Yoimiya put down the chopsticks and picked up another pair, not daring to look at Zeyan.
She had actually picked up and used the chopsticks that Zeyan had eaten with. Why had she made such a mistake? Just thinking about it made Yoimiya's face feel like it was burning.
Zeyan also felt the scene was a bit surreal. For a moment, he didn't know what to say to Yoimiya, who was quietly eating her noodles. He hesitated and said, "How about I feed you next?"
Yoimiya quickly shook her head. "No, no need... um, I think I'll go back and eat."
After what had just happened, Yoimiya was too embarrassed to stay here. She picked up her mixed fried noodles and turned to run out.
Reaching the door, Yoimiya paused again and said without looking back, "Zeyan, I've taken good enough care of you today. It should be enough to make up for your regret, right? We must enter the next day tomorrow!"
After leaving these words, Yoimiya quickly departed.
Zeyan, hearing this, felt a bit of a headache.
Of course, he knew that they wouldn't enter the next day tomorrow, and that Yoimiya was destined to be disappointed.
"Will she blame me tomorrow? Hmm, but even if she does blame me tomorrow, it doesn't matter. After all, she seemed a bit special today, making me quite concerned."
Zeyan murmured softly.
Although it was already dark, there was still some time before midnight. Zeyan couldn't help but walk to the deck, his hands resting on the railing, bathed in starlight, enjoying the evening sea breeze.
"Hmm? What's that over there? Ritou?"
Zeyan looked out at the sea ahead and noticed a dark shadow approaching. Unfortunately, he couldn't see clearly what it was due to the distance, but based on his guess, it should be Ritou, right? After all, normally this ship would arrive in Ritou tomorrow.
Zeyan didn't think too much about it. After enjoying the breeze for a while longer, he went back to sleep, certain that it was getting late.
...
"Tomorrow we can return to Ritou. I heard that Miss Kamisato of the Yashiro Commission will also be in Ritou at that time. We can catch a glimpse of the elegant figure of the Shirasagi Hime."
The ninth loop arrived as expected.
Zeyan wasn't surprised to hear the familiar voice after waking up. He yawned, got up, and took off his leather armor, intending to sleep a bit more. After all, he had been thinking about solutions for several loops in a row, and the mental fatigue seemed to linger.
"Hmm... seems like I took off too much... Oh well, too much is too much."
Zeyan drowsily threw the clothes he had taken off to the side, pulled up the blanket, and continued to sleep soundly.
"Knock, knock, knock!"
The sound of knocking came.
Zeyan didn't hear it at all and continued to sleep.
"Knock, knock, knock!"
The knocking continued, and it seemed a bit more forceful.
Zeyan still didn't move.
Yoimiya outside the door couldn't hold back any longer. "Zeyan, open the door for me! Why did we enter a new loop again? You were definitely lying to me yesterday to get me to take care of you, weren't you? Open the door quickly and explain yourself! Don't play dead!"
Zeyan: "Zzzzz..."
"Bang!"
After waiting for a long time without a response, Yoimiya couldn't help but kick the door open and immediately fixed her gaze on Zeyan, who was still fast asleep with the blanket over his head.
Seeing Zeyan like this, Yoimiya's anger surged. She was incredibly frustrated by the continuation of the time loop, yet this guy could sleep so peacefully?
Unacceptable!
"Zeyan!"
Yoimiya shouted and stepped forward to yank off Zeyan's blanket, completely exposing him to the air. But the scene that unfolded before her eyes made Yoimiya's expression freeze.
Why... why did she have to see such a scene?
Was that the Tower of Babel in front of her?
Zeyan felt a chill and woke up, opening his eyes and looking at Yoimiya with a confused expression.
How did Yoimiya get in?
Moreover, what was going on with Yoimiya's expression? Why was it turning green, then white, then red in such quick succession? He had never seen anyone's face change so rapidly in such a short time. What was wrong?
"Miss Yoimiya, you..."
Zeyan began to speak while propping himself up.
However, just as he propped himself up halfway, his movements suddenly froze. He seemed to have noticed something and looked down.
Ahead was the Tower of Babel, reaching up to the sky, standing tall and majestic!
The scene before him made Zeyan gasp. When had his clothes been completely removed? Why didn't he remember?
He turned his head stiffly towards Yoimiya. "Miss Yoimiya, did you take off my clothes?"
Having unexpectedly witnessed such a shocking scene, Yoimiya's brain was in a short circuit. Suddenly hearing Zeyan's words, Yoimiya almost choked on her anger.
Her face flushed red, she stomped her foot and said, "Pervert, pervert, shameless... I never thought you were this kind of person, Zeyan!"
Finishing her hurried words, Yoimiya turned around and quickly ran out of the cabin.
As Yoimiya left, Zeyan quickly pulled the blanket over himself.
He looked to the side. The clothes he had taken off were inside the bed, covered by the blanket. Seeing these clothes, Zeyan remembered that he seemed to have taken them off himself...
"Headache. The time loop problem hasn't been solved yet, and now this kind of thing happens."
Zeyan helplessly rubbed his head and put on his clothes.
After leaving the cabin, he first went to Yoimiya's cabin and knocked on the door, calling her name, but there was no response. He didn't know if Yoimiya wasn't inside or just didn't want to talk to him. In any case, he couldn't barge in, so he could only turn around and deal with breakfast first.
After finishing, Zeyan went to find Yoimiya again. After knocking on the door, he said, "Miss Yoimiya, no matter what, since the time loop is still continuing, shouldn't I still go to Ayaka's dad to educate him? If so, Miss Yoimiya is indispensable. Otherwise, Ayaka's dad might not pay attention to me, a stranger, right?"
Hearing Zeyan's voice, the cabin door finally opened, and Yoimiya walked out. "Let's go to Ayaka's dad's place."
At this time, she looked as if her expression was normal.
Zeyan looked at Yoimiya's expression in confusion. Had she really composed herself so quickly?
Being stared at by Zeyan, Yoimiya couldn't help but say, "I didn't take off your clothes!"
It was clear that she was only outwardly calm, and her heart was still somewhat agitated, but she had concealed it very well.
