Chapter 401: Tina's Kiss (Catch-up)
Chapter 401: Tina's Kiss (Catch-up)
"Starbreaker, did you go to Sunny Breeze Village to see Lady Bernina?" Tina asked Su Yu in a gentle voice, even before her body had fully materialized.
"Uh, well..." Su Yu's smile suddenly froze.
He scratched his head, looking sheepish. "Sorry, Tina, I totally forgot."
After entering the game, Su Yu had been drawn into the war between the three empires and completely forgot about what Tina had said.
Tina calmly observed Su Yu, but there was no trace of anger in her eyes. Instead, she smiled. "It's fine, forgetting is no big deal. I have some good news for you. I've already brought Father and my sister back to the Golden Sparrow territory. We should be able to return to Sunny Breeze Village in a day or two. How about we go see Lady Bernina together then?"
"Sure! Let's do that!" Su Yu breathed a sigh of relief, seeing that Tina wasn't upset.
He stepped forward and took Tina's soft hand. "I have eight hours of free time now. How about I show you around our world?"
Tina's eyes lit up, and she exclaimed, "That sounds great! I was just thinking about that!"
Tina had already come to Earth the day before Su Yu returned from the Skrewar planet. Unlike Morning Star, she couldn't read Earth's language and didn't dare to go out on her own, so she had spent her time staring at the skyscrapers from the balcony.
Now that she had the chance to explore the world, she was more than eager to go!
Su Yu smiled and wrapped his arm around Tina's waist. In the next moment, a bright white teleportation array appeared in the room, and Su Yu and Tina vanished within it.
For the next eight hours, Su Yu took Tina on a tour of East Sea City and all the cities within a 100-kilometer radius.
Thanks to the widespread use of "home-use multifunctional robots," many restaurants, clothing stores, and amusement parks operated 24 hours a day.
Su Yu took Tina to sample the world's unique delicacies, bought her clothes she liked at the mall, and took her on rides like roller coasters and pirate ships at the amusement park.
Tina had a blast, finding this world full of surprises.
Take food, for example.
In the game world, there weren't many seasonings, just salt and a bit of alcohol. Wealthy people might have some spices and black pepper, but the food preparation methods were quite rudimentary. In terms of cuisine, the game world couldn't even come close to the real world.
For Tina, even street food was a gourmet feast! She ate her way through the city, enjoying the delicious food Earth had to offer.
In terms of clothing, Tina also had a great time!
In the game world, she loved buying all sorts of cute dresses and beautiful outfits. The textile technology in the real world was far superior, and the clothes were more exquisite and attractive.
Since Su Yu wasn't short on money, he bought her dozens of outfits she loved, which kept her smiling the entire time.
While she couldn't bring these clothes back to the game world, she could store them at Su Yu's place. To her, Su Yu's home was as good as her own.
By the sixth hour of their tour, the sky had brightened.
Su Yu took Tina to the People's Square in East Sea City and sat down on a park bench.
The People's Square had a massive LCD screen.
At that moment, the screen was broadcasting Su Yu's heroic deeds on the Skrewar planet.
Su Yu's story had already spread across the nation, and his exploits were being broadcast everywhere. The screen in the People's Square had been playing his story for an entire day and night!
Since it was only 6 a.m., there weren't many people around.
Su Yu munched on snacks he had just bought from the street, using the screen to introduce Tina to the situation on Skrul Planet.
"The scene shows a spirit cultivation school in a small town. The career system on Skrul Planet is a bit different from your world. It's divided into four professions: Spirit Warriors, Spirit Mages, Spirit Mech Pilots, and Spirit Psionicists."
"The country I'm about to visit is called the Lunkte Federation. It's a loose confederation, but don't underestimate them. Their strength is greater than the combined might of the three human empires in your world!"
"Check this out. This is Trenera City, which is several hundred years more advanced technologically than our world. See that enormous tower piercing the clouds? It's called the Trenera Skyscraper, standing at 4,000 meters tall!"
Su Yu enthusiastically explained, and Tina listened as attentively as she could. Whenever she encountered a term she didn't understand, she would interrupt Su Yu to ask for clarification.
For example:
"What is technology?"
"What is a mech?"
"Do mechs run on electricity? Is this 'electricity' related to the lightning spells in our world?"
Su Yu was patient, taking the time to explain in the simplest terms possible. After all, Tina was a Chosen One, blessed with the "Unmatched in Her Rank" buff and possessing ten lives in the real world. In the foreseeable future, she would undoubtedly play a significant role in the war against the Skruls. That's why Su Yu was willing to spend so much time detailing these matters to her.
Despite his efforts, Tina still only grasped the basics and couldn't fully understand everything. The technological gap between the three worlds was too vast, and for someone like Tina, who had never even encountered a machine, comprehending Skrul's advanced technology was a tall order.
However, with her exceptional comprehension skills, she quickly elevated her understanding of the three worlds to a higher level, which was undeniable.
...
At 7:40 AM, Su Yu activated the teleportation array at the People's Square and returned home with Tina.
That was enough for today. He would continue to train—cough, cultivate—Tina whenever they had the chance.
A flash of white light, and Su Yu and Tina appeared at the base of the apartment building where Su Yu lived.
"Finally home!" Su Yu stretched lazily, looking at the building before him.
But unexpectedly, as Su Yu stretched, Tina suddenly approached him and gave him a big hug.
"Kesing, thank you! I had a lot of fun today," Tina said, hugging his waist with a contented smile.
"Happy to hear that," Su Yu smiled. "Tomorrow night, you can come out again, and I'll show you around a city a bit farther away."
"Okay," Tina nodded, lifting her head from Su Yu's chest. "Regarding Skrul, I'll do my best to help you and win this war!"
"Thank you, Tina!" Su Yu patted Tina's back.
Their eyes met, and the atmosphere was just right.
Tina slowly closed her eyes, pouted her lips, and leaned in to kiss Su Yu, her intention clear.
Seeing Tina's move, Su Yu hesitated.
Should he push her away?
But if he did, would she be hurt?
As he watched, Tina's lips drew closer, and he could feel her warm breath and the rapid beating of her heart.
