This Trainee Fatui Harbinger is Too Unreliable [246]

A Few Days Later – Sabzeruz Festival Day

The Sabzeruz Festival had finally arrived. Aside from Kamisato Ayaka, Ganyu and Shenhe, along with Ei, had traveled long distances to Sumeru just to see Luo Qing. Naturally, they couldn’t leave so soon.

Moreover, with so many rivals around, they were determined to seize every opportunity to get closer to him. Each one feared that the moment they left, someone else might steal him away—even if the person standing by his side was Makoto herself.

Once a woman’s competitive spirit is ignited, it’s not something that settles quickly.

Thus, neither Ganyu nor Shenhe, nor even Ei, showed any inclination to leave Sumeru. They all decided to stay a while longer to strengthen their bond with Luo Qing.

However, this choice came with a price—the rooms in Luo Qing’s home were entirely insufficient.

The two-story house only had four bedrooms, but there were six women to accommodate. Even though Rosalin graciously offered to stay elsewhere with Natalia to avoid inconveniencing her master, it still wasn’t enough.

In the end, Kamisato Ayaka volunteered to ease the situation. To avoid troubling Luo Qing, she decided to use a teleportation toilet every night to return to her room in Inazuma for rest.

With that arrangement, Ganyu and Shenhe shared a room, just barely meeting the space requirements.

As for Luo Qing...

Initially, he thought he might at least have the luxury of alternating between Theresa’s room and Makoto’s room at night. However, Makoto was quick to shut down those hopes, saying she needed to consider the feelings of the other women.

“You’re not allowed to ‘get cozy’ with me until you’ve surpassed all the others. For now, you can sleep in the living room,” Makoto had declared.

“And when you’ve finally achieved that... you’ll have the freedom to pick whichever room you want, play however you like.”

Her casual yet firm tone left him speechless.

On the Day of the Sabzeruz Festival

Given their resolve to strengthen their bond with Luo Qing, it was only natural for the women to include him in Sumeru’s traditional festival celebrations.

For days, they had eagerly looked forward to spending this occasion with him.

So early that morning, when Luo Qing had just groggily stirred awake on the sofa, he found six pairs of eyes already fixed on him.

Each woman was fully dressed, standing around him with varying degrees of anticipation on their faces.

Except for Makoto, the others looked genuinely eager—Kamisato Ayaka and Theresa being the most obvious, while Shenhe and Ei tried to suppress their excitement.

“...”

“Um, it’s barely morning,” Luo Qing muttered, shrinking into the sofa and awkwardly covering himself with a hand.

“Today’s going to be a tough day for you.”

Makoto leaned down, her deep neckline drawing his gaze as her finger gently poked his cheek.

“We talked it over last night. Today, you’re spending time with each of us individually. Then we’ll regroup in the evening for some joint activities.”

“...”

“So... I’m being split into six parts?” Luo Qing quipped dryly.

“Smart boy,” Makoto replied with a light chuckle, nodding. “Now, up you get.”

“...”

Luo Qing stayed silent. “Can you all give me a moment alone?”

“What’s this? Feeling shy all of a sudden?” Makoto scoffed. And here I thought he was bolder than this in bed.

“...”

Morning energy being what it was, Luo Qing found himself... inconveniently “ready for action.”

“Hmph. Fine. We’ll head out first. Breakfast is on the table—finish up quickly and join us,” Makoto instructed before leading the group out of the room.

Ever since that candid conversation they had during Makoto’s late-night chat session, the other women seemed to defer to her authority. Even their gazes toward Luo Qing had changed subtly.

It was almost as if... they were about to devour him?

Shaking off the thought, Luo Qing decided not to dwell on it. After a quick wash and breakfast, he caught up with the others.

The group had already worked out a schedule the night before, assigning each woman one hour to spend with Luo Qing, starting with Kamisato Ayaka. The order was: Kamisato Ayaka, Ganyu, Shenhe, Ei, Makoto.

As for Theresa? She’d suggested skipping her one-on-one time and trading it for a guarantee that Luo Qing would spend the night in her room.

That plan was vetoed immediately by Makoto, who revoked her solo date privilege altogether.

The Day’s Activities

The day turned out to be a whirlwind for Luo Qing.

• With Kamisato Ayaka:
  They played a ring-toss game at a festival stall, shared a single ice cream, and browsed a bazaar’s clothing shops. In a changing room, they snuck in a brief kiss, only for Luo Qing’s attempt at “further bonding” to be thwarted when other customers almost caught them.

• With Ganyu:
  The two strolled through the streets of Sumeru City. When Luo Qing held her hand, Ganyu turned as red as a kettle about to whistle, lowering her head in shy embarrassment. Despite his best efforts to kiss her, she remained too flustered to give him an opening. Eventually, he managed a kiss, leaving her even redder.

• With Shenhe:
  They spent an hour sparring beneath the sacred tree. For reasons unknown, Shenhe went extra hard on him, frequently aiming her spear at... rather vulnerable areas. In retaliation, Luo Qing pulled her into a hug and stole a kiss, nearly untying the red ribbon she wore. She slapped him and stormed off, leaving him grinning.

• With Ei:
  First, they went to a dessert shop for some treats. Then, they browsed the Sumeru branch of Yae Publishing House—twice. Luo Qing grew exasperated after Ei insisted on visiting both places a second time. Finally, he cornered her in the publishing house, initiating an intimate “exchange of ideas” in a quiet corner. The commotion drew Raiden Shogun’s attention from her meditation, and she briefly emerged to “discipline” Luo Qing.

• With Makoto:
  As a couple who had long grown accustomed to each other, there were no unnecessary frills. They went straight to a hotel for an hour. Suffice it to say, the time was well spent, and Luo Qing finally found some relief from his pent-up frustration.

• With Theresa:
  Having lost her solo date privilege, Theresa sulked alone, scribbling circles in the dirt. Luo Qing didn’t see her for most of the day.

Evening – Reunion at the Zubair Theater

By the evening, everyone regrouped as planned to watch the grand performance celebrating the Sabzeruz Festival. It was Makoto’s idea—a way for the “sisters” to bond further.

As they approached the theater, another familiar figure came into view: a certain blonde-haired traveler with her floating companion, Paimon, chatting with Dunyarzad about the festival’s history.

When Lumine caught sight of Luo Qing surrounded by six stunning women, her mind blanked.

There were Ganyu and Shenhe, whose arrival in Sumeru had nearly caused a love triangle disaster. Then there were Kamisato Ayaka and Ei, both from Inazuma.

Yet instead of the chaos she expected, they all seemed to get along.

Ei, have you abandoned Inazuma? Ayaka, what about the Kamisato clan?

What was happening?!
