Is It Too Late to Leave the Chat Group?

Book 5: Chapter 41:2: Kal’tsit: Kisses, Hugs, and Lifts, Part 2

“Well, you figured out I have an inner demon. What do you want to say about it?”

Chen Heng responded, “What I’m saying is that if you’ve encountered an inner demon, it’s best to resolve it straight away. Not only can I see your inner demon, but I also know that it has something to do with your master. She…you shouldn’t wait for her to reach out. If you need to ask her anything, you must be proactive. If you’re waiting for her to come to you with an explanation, you might not get an answer even at the end of your life.”

While Chen Heng could indeed see Cheng Lixue’s inner demon, his claim that it was related to Fu Hua was merely a blind guess. He feared that even if Fu Hua understood the situation and knew about Cheng Lixue’s inner demon, she might still hold back due to her reserved nature, prolonging the issue indefinitely.

“You—”

“Stop! Stop! Stop! Take it up with your master if you have anything to say. I’m going to sleep. Don’t disturb me.”

Chen Heng immediately cut Cheng Lixue off when she started speaking. He had no desire to get embroiled in the emotional entanglements between master and disciple; it was too much hassle!

However, he could bring this up to Fu Hua in the chat group.

He Who Knows Fate: Fu Hua, I saw your disciple Cheng Lixue.

Flat-Chested Chinese: Why do you change how you address me every time?

He Who Knows Fate: Of course, it’s because I like you.

Flat-Chested Chinese: …

He Who Knows Fate: Immortal, let me tell you, the Azure Empyrea is super cool and completely aligns with my aesthetic. The Phoenix as well.

Umaru-chan: Fu Hua, don’t mind him. Chen Heng is always blunt and starts flirting with 2D characters out of the blue. He even declared Kal’tsit his waifu last time.

Efreet: But don’t worry. He’s in love with the 2D game character version of you, not the real one.

Flat-Chested Chinese: …Should I be pleased?

He Who Knows Fate: Did I say that about Kal’tsit?

Kal’tsit: Scumbag! You deny it after saying it. Humph!

He Who Knows Fate: Kal’tsit, you…this doesn’t sound like you. Did you project the chat onto your communicator and get hacked?

Kal’tsit: How did you figure that out?

He Who Knows Fate: Is it Amiya or Doctor?

Kal’tsit: It’s me, Amiya.

He Who Knows Fate: OK, it’s Doctor. Amiya wouldn’t talk like that. Doctor, aren’t you afraid of being skinned alive when Kal’tsit finds out?

Kal’tsit: I’m not worried at all. I derive joy from taking risks. Go on. Confess your feelings, or do you want me to confess first?

17-Year-Old Beautiful Young Lady: …

Kal’tsit: Wait a moment. Let me delete the previous chat history to make it more perfect.

Kal’tsit: Chen Heng, be my boyfriend. I like you.

He Who Knows Fate: Sure, sure.

Kal’tsit: Hug me, Hubby.

He Who Knows Fate: Hugs.

Flat-Chested Chinese: …

Efreet: …

Umaru-chan: After all this time, you are still a showboat.

17-Year-Old Beautiful Young Lady: …Congratulations to you both.

Magus of Flowers: May you two grow old together.

Blank Never Loses: You two… May you have children soon.

I Have a Strong Presence: Chen Heng, didn’t you forget something? Your younger sister Sirin will join the group soon, right?

He Who Knows Fate: …I forgot! You didn’t take any screenshots, did you?

Magus of Flowers: Nope, no way, we definitely didn’t take any screenshots.

He Who Knows Fate: Looks like I need to mute Merlin before Sirin joins the group.

Kal’tsit: Hubby, hug me! I want kisses, hugs, and to be lifted high.

He Who Knows Fate: …

Kal’tsit: Explain, who is Sirin? So soon after having me, you’re going after someone else? You cheater

Umaru-chan: Why did you stop?

Efreet: Could it be…

He Who Knows Fate: …Well, I initially wanted to speak to Immortal. Immortal, I saw Cheng Lixue earlier.

When Doctor suddenly fell silent, Chen Heng could only guess one of three possibilities: she was discovered, she was discovered, or she was discovered. Hopefully, she was alright—although the likelihood was slim. If Kal’tsit found out Doctor was using her account to send these messages… Rest in peace, Doctor. I’ll inherit your Operators.

To save his own skin, Chen Heng changed the topic.

Flat-Chested Chinese: What happened then? Otto originally wanted me to go, but I refused. He then sent Cecilia to Babylon Labs with Cheng Lixue. You didn’t hurt her, did you?

He Who Knows Fate: Don’t worry, don’t worry. I didn’t realize you cared so much for your disciple. Out of the three Valkyries who came, only Shigure Kira got slightly hurt. After all, even if I don’t give face to the disciple, I have to give face to the master. The other two are just fine.

Flat-Chested Chinese: That’s good to hear!

He Who Knows Fate: However, I pointed out her inner demon and advised her to speak with you directly. Given your personality, Fu Hua, I doubted you would take the initiative to help clear up her mental block.

Flat-Chested Chinese: …

He Who Knows Fate: So, I stepped in on your behalf.

Flat-Chested Chinese: Should I be thanking you, then?

He Who Knows Fate: Oh, no need, no need. After all, we’re all in the same chat group. It’s only natural to help each other.

Flat-Chested Chinese: …

Kal’tsit: Earlier…

He Who Knows Fate: Honey, you’re back. What happened earlier?

Kal’tsit: Nothing in particular.

He Who Knows Fate: ??

At this point, Chen Heng panicked. Kal’tsit, say something to defend yourself! You can’t just leave it like that. People might get the wrong idea.

Kal’tsit: I just dealt with a bug. Also, what did you call me just now?
