Isn't It Love?
Chapter 34: Tinkerbell
"Hmm... what should I buy? Heheh, I just got paid today~"
A young woman visited Midtown to go shopping, since there was another person living with her.
Even though she didn’t really need anything substantial like food, because she didn’t even understand what hunger was. But since she categorized herself as a ’living being’, she had to follow the rules about eating.
"Haa... what did Ren say earlier? I don’t really remember his words. Want to cook porridge again?" she muttered, as she entered the supermarket section. "Hmm~ oh well, I think Ren doesn’t really care about the taste of food either~"
The woman put in a lot of groceries, walked to the cooler, and grabbed some pudding. "Hehehe~ this is Mimi’s favorite. Haa... I miss that kid, her positive energy really is extraordinary."
She put the pudding into the trolley along with the other items. The woman kept pushing and hummed to herself. Her twin braids bounced like pendulums moving unpredictably.
After paying, she left the supermarket and walked with a pretty happy feeling until—the woman’s eyes sparkled, a wide smile returning to her face when she saw a pretty interesting sight.
Three girls and one guy were sitting together, a total harem trope. "Wow wow wow, I didn’t expect to see this view, ugh, again Ryan is really a magnet for girls~"
The woman took out her phone from her pocket to snap a picture of this interesting scene she found today.
"Hehehe~ time to stir the prince’s heart~"
She sent it to Ren, waiting for an interesting reply.
BZZ BZZ
The woman giggled and quickly opened the incoming message notification, but her smile turned into a pout.
"So? Do I have to go there?" 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶
Sighing, Reva then typed a reply with a slightly disappointed look because the ’main character’ didn’t want to go along with this perfect setup.
Come here. Quickly.
After pressing send, Reva waited for a reply for quite a few minutes. Reva clicked her tongue, seeing Ren’s answer on the screen: just a middle finger emoji.
FREAKING DAMN IT!!!
How dare he refuse an invitation from a kind ’goddess’ like her. Reva exhaled, looking at her left hand which was holding the shopping bag. She put her phone back into her hoodie pocket.
Her eyes still looked from a distance, the three girls and one boy gathered together. She smiled, seeing the progress made by Ryan—oh that’s not quite right, she meant the progress made by Ryan using "Kai’s" body— yes, that was the more accurate word.
"Ohh... come to think of it, he didn’t join the gathering."
She took out a Calla Lily flower brooch from her pocket, and aimed the brooch at an empty space next to Kai. She hadn’t had the chance to give this brooch to him, and she thought it would be perfect to share it today.
Reva’s eyes then sharpened toward Daisy.
"Hehehe~ you still haven’t gotten a good development to open your ’lock’, but if you think about it, it’s also Kai’s fault~"
Fixing the relationship between Caleb and Daisy. That was truly a noble and selfless step that came from Kai’s personality.
"But with you as you are now... I’m not sure you’ll be as naive as before~" Reva said, taking out a Daisy brooch. "Mmm... if there’s no change in the near future, getting rid of the ’cardinal’ flower might be faster. Besides, childhood friend tropes rarely end well~"
She then put the two brooches back into her pocket and took out her phone again to message someone.
Kai Clove is in serious trouble in Midtown. Come here. Quickly.
"And send, hehehe~ high affection points really do make things easier." Reva put her phone away and leaned against the wall, smiling faintly as she looked at Kai.
Reva closed her eyes, remembering the incident that night. Telling Arisa’s ex, ending up stabbed and dead. But fortunately, Reva was quick enough to secure Ryan’s soul to transfer it into the body of "Kai".
Haa... even though I initially wanted to transfer him to Ren’s body, making this much progress with a body that has a ’destiny’ to be evil is truly impressive.
Improvising from the existing scenario, really amazing.
"I’m really enjoying this game, I’m curious who will become his ’Wendy’." Reva said with a slight joke.
As someone who claims to be like ’Tinkerbell’, she would make everything run smoothly with her ’magic’ dust sprinkles.
"Ohh... they’ve arrived."
Reva saw the person she contacted earlier coming. That girl really had a confused face on. That slightly funny sight made Reva walk over to her.
"Hmm? Miss Campbell? I didn’t expect to meet you here."
"Huh?" Lily looked up and down, not expecting to meet the cafeteria staff here. "Wait, you’re the cafeteria staff at school, aren’t you? Why are you here? Oh sorry, I’m looking for my friend, he’s a student at that school, a tall guy about 5’10", white hair, blue eyes."
"Oh, you mean Kai?" Reva said with a fake innocent smile. "What’s wrong with him?"
"Yes, Kai! I— I mean, about 10 minutes ago, I got a message from an unknown number. That person said Kai was in trouble. I didn’t believe it, but the number mentioned my friend’s full name, so I thought it was real."
"Hmm... Kai, huh. I saw him earlier. I’m going to meet him. Come with me, young lady."
Reva then led Lily toward the ’capture targets’ who were gathering. This would definitely be interesting if Ren weren’t so stubborn.
Haa... why did that kid become the male lead? He’s really terrible and insensitive to women’s feelings, but... a top-tier sociopath like him honestly makes the story interesting~
"There he is." Reva said, pointing to where Kai was gathering with Chloe, Daisy, and Risa. She turned to Lily with a smile. "Looks like your friend is fine."
"Hmm? Kai..."
Seeing Kai turn around and look quite surprised by Reva’s presence with Lily, Reva reached into her pocket and took out two pairs of Calla Lily flower brooches. She gave both brooches to Lily.
"These are for you, Miss Campbell~"
"Huh? What are these... shoe brooches... with flowers?"
"Yep. Give one to Kai, okay? I’m being waited for at home."
Reva raised her voice to get Kai’s attention. "Hey Kai~ congratulations, hehehe", she giggled, her mood pretty good. "Tell me about your date today with these girls. Ciao~"
"Hey wait, Reva—"
Reva turned her back before Kai could finish his sentence, leaving him with a little ’problem’ she had given. She actually wanted to watch more closely. But of course, she had to be fair like an arbiter... even though she knew nothing in this world was fair. Like her, even though she always supported Kai, her role would inevitably lean more toward Ren.
"Hmm~ a good day and good entertainment today hahaha!"
Reva was pretty happy. Just got paid, plus the progress of all the ’pawns’ was going well. She really wanted to bring more people from other worlds here again.
Maybe Mimi or Arisa... those two were interesting choices for Reva.
"Well... if I want to bring more people, I should think about how to end their life first... well if I’m thinking about bringing more people, I need to learn how to bring them here gently."
The bitter experience of bringing Ryan here was really unpleasant because Reva didn’t like being around a pool of blood just to lock his ’soul’ so she could bring him here.
Not to mention finding a vessel in this world. But finding a vessel in this world was quite easy for someone like Reva.
"Hmm... let’s not think about it. The important thing is I got paid today!!!"
