Viego followed W around her camp as she contacted Heavily via radio. It seems the technology level in this world isn't actually that low... I wonder what a real city would look like? Viego was a little excited. According to the usual tropes, after completing a large mission like this, a mercenary group should go to a nearby city to rest for a few days, right? At that time, he should be able to truly experience the scenery of an isekai city. He didn't know if he could follow in the footsteps of his predecessors and write an appraisal handbook of his own... —don't get me wrong, Viego was talking about an isekai culinary appraisal handbook.
W put down the radio communicator and walked back to Viego's side. "Let's go. Back to Ines's side. Heavily is almost here too."
"Do I have to go too?" Viego pointed at himself. "I'm just a newcomer. It's not really appropriate for me to attend such a high-level meeting, is it?"
"What's not appropriate? It's just a few simple words. You need to know the operational details anyway. Stop with the nonsense, let's go, let's go." W dragged Viego towards Ines's campfire, saying impatiently, "If Heavily and Ines don't trust you, then you just follow me. If anything happens, I'll be the one to die anyway."
Viego raised an eyebrow. "W, I didn't expect you to trust me so much? I'm truly moved."
W's hand trembled. She instantly pulled her hand away from Viego's, a look of disgust on her face as if she had just touched excrement. "Viego, don't f*cking disgust me."
"What's with that expression?" Viego said, displeased. "Don't act like I'm a pile of shit, okay? I'm actually very popular."
W mocked, "Viego, are you talking about your ability to attract flies?"
Viego had a feeling she was implying something else.
"W, watch your words." A cold voice came from behind Viego.
Viego sighed without any surprise. He was already getting used to Ines's ghostly appearances. Ines walked past Viego, giving him a faint glance. Viego had a feeling that he might, possibly, perhaps... also be hated by association? Using the "love the house, love the crow on it" idiom seemed a bit off, but it also seemed quite reasonable. After all, you could also say that "hitting is affection, and scolding is love."
Thinking of it this way, whether it was the neurotic, crazy woman W, or the cold, fierce woman Ines, they both seemed to become a little cuter.
—Viego had always been very good at comforting himself.
Ines and W walked side-by-side in front. Viego, walking behind like a follower, actually breathed a sigh of relief. At least this way, his presence would be weakened, and he wouldn't be immediately drawn into the war between the two women...
W sneered. "Heh, does Captain Ines have a problem with what I said?"
"Hmph..." Ines grunted faintly. "Just a reminder not to be impudent to 'my person'. Viego is a member of my team. It's not your place to discipline him."
Ines also put heavy emphasis on the words "my person," throwing W's earlier mockery right back at her.
"Alright, alright." W started to laugh, her smile brilliant and dazzling. "So you want to play it like that, do you?"
"Just stating the facts." Underneath Ines's flat words, there seemed to be a hidden, sharp blade. She gave the white-haired man behind her a faint glance. "Do you think Viego is just your plaything? Forgive me for not being able to agree."
Here she comes, here she comes! She's coming with the tactic of borrowing a knife to kill someone and sowing discord!
Viego cried out in misery, quickly lowering his head, hoping the two women who were clashing with words wouldn't let the fire of war spread to him.
But unfortunately, most of the time, reality does not go as one wishes.
W slowed her pace. Ines also slowed her pace. Viego also slowed his pace. But W yanked him over.
Viego was caught between Ines and W. On his left was the crazy bitch in black stockings, on his right was the cool beauty with white legs. A "DANGER" sign hung above his head.
It's over.
The star of death, it seems to be shining brightly.
W's smile was brilliant. She knew Viego would definitely try to escape, so she simply pressed down on his shoulder, giving him no chance to run, and said with a smile, "Viego, do you think what your Captain Ines said is right? Captain Ines actually said I just treat you like a toy? I've never had such a thought. I just don't know why Captain Ines would think so?"
W used her other hand to cover her "surprised" mouth. "Oh my, could it be... the one who really thinks that way is actually Captain Ines? No wonder she clearly dislikes Viego but still keeps him by her side. So it was to play with him until she gets tired and then throws him away? My, my, how scary~"
W, you have a real knack for being passive-aggressive, but I beg you, can you not use me as a knife to be passive-aggressive towards Ines? I don't want to be dragged into your war! Why don't you two just fight it out? Whoever wins gets to take me!
A slender, fair hand also pressed down on Viego's other shoulder. The force was not small.
Ines was expressionless, but her brows were clearly furrowed a little. "Viego, what do you think of me as a captain?"
"W always talks about you like this, you must feel very upset, right?" Ines's golden eyes gave a faint glance, the hand on Viego's shoulder pressing down slightly. "Staying by my side is much happier than being by the side of the insulting W, isn't it?"
"Heh… puhaha… Me, insulting him??" When W heard this, she burst out laughing, almost collapsing onto Viego's shoulder, her whole body shaking, laughing until she was bent over.
Ines: "?" What is W going crazy about now?
W laughed for a while and finally recovered, wiping the tears of laughter from the corner of her eye. She looked at Ines and said, "Captain Ines wouldn't happen to not know that Viego is a leg-fetishist, would she? Oh my, what's going on here?"
W looked down at her own legs in their black stockings with a surprised expression. "Could it be that Viego prefers me more and doesn't really like Captain Ines's type, which is why he hasn't shown any affection for Captain Ines's long legs?"
Viego turned his head and glared at W. Hey, that's going too far! You can't slander people like that! And why is this topic getting more and more dangerous?! I'm not a leg-fetishist, I don't like your black stockings, and I especially don't like Ines's long legs! I just like the Ruination from the fragments inside your bodies!
"I'm not…"
"Shut up!" "Shut up."
The voices of the two women sounded in unison, interrupting Viego's explanation. Viego closed his mouth, feeling that this situation might not be so bad after all. Thinking from another angle, Ines and W pressing on him like this was physical contact, which meant he had double the Ruination to absorb...
Viego felt the Ruination within his body gradually grow stronger and fuller. He looked left and right.
This situation right now... isn't so bad, is it?
—Viego had always been very good at comforting himself.
