The Relationship Between The Whitewing And The Lycoris Is Really Explosive Gossip!

“Miss Qingliya, you apparently didn’t attend last night’s banquet. May I ask why you didn’t come?”

Young Master Naiye was very sure Miss Qingliya wasn’t at last night’s banquet, because the only people he remembered from last night were Nia and Xiya—definitely not Qingliya.

Qingliya’s jade-white hand slowly rose and waved listlessly.

“There are too many rules at banquets. I just want to enjoy the food—there’s so much delicious food in front of me and I can’t even eat it in big bites! It’s such a bother!”

The same answer as the Fire and Ice Elemental Knight sisters—they really despise the etiquette of banquets!

When the gourmet young lady said that, the two attendants beside her—

the bodyguard female knight Spring and the personal maid Ming nodded sincerely and repeatedly!

The three of them truly shared one mind: they all loved eating and held very sincere beliefs about food.

Naiye originally felt that his own enthusiasm for good food had risen another level because of these three!

So after hearing that, Young Master Naiye’s gaze shifted and he rudely stared at Qingliya’s graceful, delicate hand—starting at the shoulder area, then down toward the joints.

As expected, he saw what he wanted to see!

But Qingliya didn’t mind; she continued speaking.

“Besides, I already knew the purpose of that banquet. I don’t want to take part in their factional struggles—I’d rather eat the foods I love!”

So Qingliya fully understood the struggle between the Skywing and the Blackwing?

So it seems this Whitewing is taking a neutral stance?

“May I ask your opinion of them?”

Young Master Naiye continued to ask, but his eyes were no longer on Qingliya’s arm.

Instead he unabashedly looked at the thigh of the female knight Spring beside her.

The female knight was still absentmindedly chewing a huge hamburger.

She didn’t notice at all that Young Master Naiye was looking at her full, firm thigh.

What a pair of meaty legs!

Those thighs were healthy and toned, with obvious traces of training and sexy curves.

The nutrition she ate had clearly gone to exactly the right places.

The gourmet young lady didn’t answer immediately either; she chewed her steak while pondering how to reply.

The answer she finally gave was unexpected.

“As for me… I actually don’t have much of an opinion.

“But if I had to say who I support, I’d lean toward the Skywing.”

That was pretty much what Naiye had expected.

Nia had long proven herself; it would have been impossible for her to become captain of the Sky Wing Knights and clan leader by accident—she earned it entirely by herself.

The Dragon Knights completely valued bloodline and strength.

But the Sky Wing Knights did not have such particularity; relying solely on main-line bloodline was absolutely not enough.

One must seize it through one’s own ability and strength.

“Could you say why?”

“Nothing much, simply… Nia is very suitable for the position, and Xiya is not suitable.”

Qingliya delivered a very direct critical comment.

Not only is Nia suitable, but Xiya is unsuitable.

Young Master Naiye was a bit surprised to hear that.

“You mean…”

“Wait a moment!”

Qingliya suddenly interrupted Naiye, glaring at him fiercely!

Her crimson pupils fixed on Young Master Naiye’s flushed red eyes.

She spoke, word by word.

“Young Master Naiye, we’re eating now—no need to be so formal… and you don’t have to be so restrained in private either!”

Oh, so that’s what she meant—Young Master Naiye had thought she had noticed him peeking.

No, Young Master Naiye hadn’t been sneaking a look—he had been openly looking at the three of them.

It’s just that the three showed no reaction and were fully focused on eating their food.

Even under Miss Qingliya’s stern aura, the two attendant girls still ate their food.

As if they were completely used to it; unless spoken to, they made no extra movements.

“Alright, I understand.”

Qingliya nodded with satisfaction, then gracefully cut another piece of steak and ate it.

“So you think Xiya’s personality isn’t suitable to be clan leader—she’s too… fixated on the family?”

“Yes, Xiya is too devoted to the family and has forgotten our family’s original name and why we exist in this kingdom—our will.”

The word ‘will’—Young Master Naiye hadn’t expected to hear that from a young lady.

“She’s forgotten that our family is a Skywing Knight Family—not merely nobles or knights whose vision is limited to the family… that’s completely insufficient.”

“Indeed, I completely agree.”

This time Qingliya was a bit surprised; it seemed Young Master Naiye wasn’t an ordinary young master, and he appeared to understand these matters even better than she did.

When Miss Qingliya looked toward Young Master Naiye—

she discovered he was actually peeking?!

And he wasn’t peeking at her—he was peeking at her maid! What a bold and rude fellow!

Young Master Naiye carefully and unabashedly stared at the bespectacled maid’s arms and feet.

Her arms and feet weren’t that muscular, but one could still see signs of training.

It made her whole body look healthy and pretty, with a little softness to it.

However, under careful observation, Young Master Naiye still saw what he wanted to see.

And it was something a woman would normally conceal—quite pleasing indeed…

“……..”

“……..”

When Young Master Naiye looked up, his gaze met crimson eyes exactly.

Qingliya’s arm stiffened for a moment, then she resumed eating her steak as if she hadn’t seen anything.

Young Master Naiye was shameless too, behaving as if nothing had happened.

“Could you talk about… the matter between the Lady and my father?”

“You don’t know?”

Qingliya widened her eyes in puzzlement and looked at Young Master Naiye, very surprised that he didn’t know about it.

This was the beginning of a friendly relationship between the two sides, and moreover her mother was a benefactor of the Lycoris family.

To put it more positively, if it weren’t for Qingliya’s mother, Naiye’s father would have had great difficulty even taking the first step.

Although her mother was a noble, she was highly respected! If her mother hadn’t personally accepted civilian-use technology at the time—

Qingliya could say bluntly that otherwise the Sky Wing Knights would not have accepted magical technology.

One of the Four Great Knight Orders accepted it, which made it much easier to lead the others to accept it as well.

Coupled with Naiye’s father’s earnestness, they ultimately persuaded Queen Auriel to accept it.

In the end, everyone accepted magical technology; even if there was still some internal resistance, it was much better than at first.

“No, I just wanted to hear the story from your side.”

Young Master Naiye replied calmly, but his crimson spider lily pupils did reveal a yearning to hear the story.

“Alright, my mother also spoke of this matter—she actually had two thoughts about it.”

Qingliya cut the last piece of steak into two, speared one piece with her fork, and spoke as she ate.

“The first thought was that she personally inspected and used it and found civilian-use technology truly practical! That’s the fundamental reason!”

“I agree with that—if a tool doesn’t actually work as intended, then all praise is just superficial.”

Young Master Naiye understood this very well; this was also Lycoris’s core attitude toward all magical technology.

【It must be useful! No flashy but useless things!】

Qingliya finished the forked piece of steak, then gently stretched out.

Her arm, a little stiff, reached across the table and toward Young Master Naiye’s mouth.

At her gesture, Naiye ate that final piece of steak.

“The second thought is simpler: my mother was true to her inner desire—she wanted to win your father.”

“…!!”

“…!!”

The two attendants beside her, Knight Spring and maid Ming, with mouths full, looked at their mistress in surprise.

Because not just them—the entire Skywing Knight Family hadn’t really heard of this matter!

Yet the son of the party involved, Young Master Naiye, was extremely calm, showing no change in expression.

There was even a look of something expected about him.

Miss Qingliya showed no concern and continued speaking.

“At first my mother just thought your father was decent and wanted to take him in by marriage, but his eyes held nothing but magical technology—though he was particularly persuasive, not at all foolish or stupid.

“Gradually, later on my mother changed her mind and actively pursued him, but… failed. Even becoming his benefactor couldn’t make her his lover.”

Young Master Naiye knew very well how things had ended up that way—because his father had met his mother.

Qingliya pointed her fork at Naiye.

“My mother said she saw what a person who is truly loved is like. That man had beside him only an ordinary woman, yet that ordinary person became your father’s emotional pillar—while your father… became my mother’s emotional pillar?”

This romantic gossip was explosive—the father might not even know how he became the Lady’s unattainable first love.

“In fact, your father was my mother’s first love; there are still photos of the two of them in her room.”

It was the most sincere, pure feeling of an unattainable first love!

Young Master Naiye finally understood why he hadn’t heard much about his father’s love history.

“Is the Lady still around? May I visit her?”

“My mother left the kingdom long ago, saying she went on holiday and relinquished the Whitewing and noble rights to me.”

Alright, then never mind—perhaps she went to heal her heart.

Qingliya looked at Naiye, as if understanding his thoughts, and continued.

“The destination of my mother’s holiday is your parents’ destination—she went to visit your father and mother to reminisce.”

“Uh… what?”

This was rather explosive news; for an instant Young Master Naiye wondered whether he should tell his father.

Because it seemed he hadn’t heard from his parents in a long time.

“……..”

But he gave it up; this was his own matter to resolve—no one else could help.

He hadn’t expected that after so long, Lady Whitewing“s feelings hadn’t faded—no, they had grown stronger. He wondered whether his father and mother could bear it.

Young Master Naiye swallowed nervously, a rare show of emotion.

The story finished; Miss Qingliya gracefully wiped her mouth and the lunch ended.

Her beautiful eyes continued to gaze at Young Master Naiye.

It was Young Master Naiye’s turn.

“Thank you very much for the Whitewing’s help—Lycoris will surely remember this!”

Naiye first responded formally with polite words, then moved on to a gift.

“As a gift in return, I will update the prosthetic limbs of all three of you!”

“…!!!”

This time the three girls were surprised!

Qingliya immediately realized that what Young Master Naiye had been peeking at wasn’t just their bodies—but their prosthetic limbs as well!

Their limbs were all high-end, almost like real bodies, hardly noticeable.

But without specialists who truly understood them to carry out dedicated maintenance and updates, the obvious stiffness had already been visible in their recent movements.

They hadn’t expected Young Master Naiye to notice—no wonder he was the head of Lycoris and an expert in magical technology.

Miss Qingliya gave a slight, beautiful, elegant smile—small, but very sincere.

“Thank you very much!”
