"...?"
What do you mean?
Are you not planning to leave yet?
Mei now really has to wonder if Liu Bai is just being dutiful or trying to take advantage of her.
"It's nothing, don't think too much about it. I've seen your... cough cough, Huang Quan's body, which is still in shadow, several times."
Liu Bai seemed to sense Mei's worry.
He could understand the girl's sense of shame.
However, Mei's body no longer held much mystery for him.
—If you've already completed three playthroughs, you'll definitely lose the desire to explore in the fourth.
Of course, there are still differences. For example, the positions of True and Shadow are the same, but not the same as those of Yellow Spring.
Liu Bai pondered that Huang Quan should share the same location as Mei... Of course, this idea could not be put into practice.
"..."
Mei remained silent.
I really want to kick Liu Bai—is that even human language?!
Although they look alike, they can stand together to defend Mei's dignity when necessary.
But on the other hand...
There's a saying that goes, "It's not scary to wear the same clothes as someone else; it's embarrassing if you look worse."
What if we replace "wearing the same clothes" with "looking the same"?
Liu Bai's words sounded as if he were saying that the other three people had a higher "Mei rating" than her!
"...I understand, please go out first."
Mei gritted her teeth.
"Row."
……
"call……"
After Liu Bai closed the door and left, Mei lifted the blanket, and the usually gentle Mei showed a rare expression of resentment.
I'm now on a completely different track from Huang Quan and Sister Zhen!
Mei looked at herself in the mirror.
"...This is just too much!"
"Mei? What's wrong?"
Mei's movements prompted Liu Bai, who was outside, to ask her with concern.
"No, it's nothing!"
Mei looked at herself in the mirror.
This bodysuit... isn't it so thin it's practically like you're not wearing anything at all?!
And so much more is exposed in other places too!
There are only two places where the armor is applied!
Does the black armor on the chest actually provide any protection? And it doesn't even connect to the bottom!
If my chest shakes, my so-called "breastplate" will shake along with it.
This isn't thick at all!
In other words... the thickest part of her body she was wearing...
Actually, it's a right arm armor!
This is ridiculous!
Mei, in a fit of despair, slammed the crimson arm armor onto the ground.
"Mei?"
The sound of a door opening could be heard outside.
"No, don't open the door! I, I'm just taking off my clothes!"
After giving Liu Bai a perfunctory reply, Mei blushed again and looked at herself in the mirror.
Her white bodysuit with black trim was so thin and tight that it perfectly outlined her figure.
So thin and revealing... This curtain at the bottom... is more of a seduction than a cover-up, isn't it?
If you make even a slightly larger movement, the curtain that's been lifted up won't be able to stop you at all!
Mei lifted the curtain herself.
...I also changed my underwear.
She said that she felt a sensation of something leaking out earlier.
Why would a Herrscher responsible for destroying the world dress like this?
...Only this black and red demon horn is somewhat decent and kind of handsome.
At the very least, he should be the kind of character who wears heavy black armor, has red eyes, is several meters tall, and wields a life-sized katana!
...Okay, this might be what those entropy-reversing chuunibyou (delusional) girls like.
Wait, you like it...?
Mei glanced at the door suspiciously.
Then I thought about Benares again.
Bella also seemed to be wearing very little clothing.
The center is wide open, with only a small decoration on the navel.
Similarly, the details on the chest and pants are somewhat incomprehensible.
Then there was the same small cape that offered little protection, and then the black and white stockings...
Emmmm... Even Bella is like this. Could it be that being a Herrscher isn't a respectable profession?
No, wait! Come to think of it, Bella was also bestowed upon her by Liu Bai!
Doesn't that mean...?
Is Liu Bai abusing his authority on the Honkai side to do whatever he wants?
Look at how proper the Herrscher of Domination is dressed!
...At least they're dressed very conservatively, isn't that proper enough?
The Herrscher of Thunder's outfit is so embarrassing, it must be Liu Bai's doing—!
Mei's face turned completely red.
Just thinking about watching Liu Bai spar...
No, Liu Bai's gaze at that time didn't seem aggressive at all.
Could it be that Liu Bai simply reflected his own preferences?
...Mei felt a bit conflicted.
She was very unhappy if Liu Bai said that he saw her as Mei, who could be replaced by someone else.
But now Liu Bai has given her an outfit that's quite unique among them... Shouldn't she be a little happier?
"...After all, this outfit is quite pretty."
Mei put her arm armor back on, took the sword, and struck a few poses in front of the mirror.
It definitely has a crisp and sharp feel to it, without sacrificing aesthetic appeal.
...Although some details are a bit vulgar, overall Liu Bai has quite good taste.
This outfit is indeed very stylish if it's not used for combat.
If it were used for combat, the only thing to worry about would be the curtain below... but since a fight has already broken out, this seems to be a trivial detail.
If you add some purple lightning effects...
Mei thought about it for a moment and felt that there was great potential in it.
But Mei gave up on the idea of trying it directly—Liu Bai was still outside, and it wouldn't be good if she attracted him in with all the noise.
...Could it be that Liu Bai's design is really that good?
It even resolved her long-standing concern about her suppressed temperament.
goo...
"Never mind, I'd better not think about that anymore. I'll take a shower first."
This outfit should be able to be taken back.
Then your previous clothes will reappear... Hmm, that's amazing.
Mei disarmed herself, but did not cover herself with her everyday clothes.
If we cover it now, won't it just get our everyday clothes dirty?
"...Speaking of which, is my amount too much or too little?"
Mei glanced down at the water resource issue.
Although Mei hadn't considered this before, now that she's encountered it, she couldn't help but think about it.
However, Mei doesn't have any comparable figures for comparison, or rather, she doesn't know any information about them.
Perhaps only Liu Bai truly knows this.
She can only compare herself to characters in those shady publications now—but everyone knows she can't win that comparison.
Moreover, this comparison makes it seem like she's trying to steal Liu Bai away...
Even if Huang Quan supports her, Zhen Jie encourages her, Ying Jie doesn't care, and Liu Bai is very close to her, she can't do this!
She's different from those shameless people!
...It really is different!
"...Never mind, what am I thinking about here?"
Mei muttered to herself—but once she said that, she couldn't help but keep thinking about it.
Then Mei remembered Rita's answer during the meeting last night.
It seems... Liu Bai can beat the protagonists of those shady publications?
Although it seems exaggerated, from another perspective, it doesn't seem impossible...
Mei's hands were a little restless.
Thinking about it carefully, it's understandable that ordinary people can't compare to characters from doujinshi (Japanese sci-fi) works.
Now that he's a superpowered person, he's still no match for... is that right?
Does this mean that Liu Bai is the one with the correct logic?
Mei recalled the blissful feeling of her mind going blank just moments before.
Mei's little hands were getting more and more restless.
"...No, I can't follow in Liu Ying's shameful footsteps."
Mei took a deep breath.
"The heart is like still water...the heart is like still water..."

"Mei, what's wrong with you?"
