Lady Herta, who had been walking with calm and elegant confidence, was completely thrown off by Lin Li!

She took a deep breath, forcing herself to calm down and refraining from barging in immediately.

She could clearly see Asta’s state—her face flushed bright red, utterly embarrassed, but there was no sign of threat or coercion.Full novel: Honkai Star Rail: Who Says They’re Just NPCs? — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠

Seeing Asta occasionally cast affectionate glances toward Lin Li, with emotions so intense they seemed ready to overflow, Herta knew Asta had fallen for him.

At this point, barging in would be inappropriate.

Asta was thin-skinned, and Herta didn’t want to make the situation awkward.

Herta had initially planned to use this time to study the NPC World, hoping to make some discoveries.

But the scene inside had piqued her curiosity somewhat.

Lady Herta had displayed astonishing intelligence from a young age, dedicating herself entirely to solving various complex problems.

She had never been in a relationship and had never delved deeply into matters between men and women.

She naturally understood the basic process of reproduction, but the various derived practices were things favored by the decadent and powerful elite.

She had no interest in them and had never encountered them.

But now that she had witnessed it, Herta’s curiosity suddenly flared up.

Could it really be done with feet?

Was such a thing truly that pleasurable?

As the most intelligent human on The Blue, Herta has always only done things that interest her, leaving immediately once her interest fades.

Now, seeing Asta’s affectionate gaze and Lin Li’s squinting, contented expression, she couldn’t help but feel a slight interest in this kind of situation.

Well then, let’s observe a bit.

In the bedroom, Lin Li squinted as he enjoyed Asta’s fair and delicate little feet, but his gaze inadvertently drifted toward the doorway.

He had known the moment Herta entered the NPC World.

When a new character enters the NPC World for the first time, the phone gives a vibration alert, so Herta’s arrival couldn’t escape his notice.

Lin Li deliberately didn’t tell Asta, wanting to take the opportunity to provoke Herta a little and see how she would react to such a scene.

He was fairly confident that Herta wouldn’t directly expose them, considering Asta’s dignity, so she would likely leave in anger and go study something else first.

However, things turned out slightly different from his expectations—Herta actually lingered here without leaving.

Are you here to observe and learn?

Well then, you better learn well!

A slight smirk curled at the corner of Lin Li’s mouth as he earnestly began instructing Asta, who was diligently practicing gripping a gun with her little feet.

“Hmm, the speed can be a bit faster.”

“Add a little more force, hmm, yes, that’s a good amount of force!”

“Hah~ Asty, your little feet are so soft, like smooth jade!”

Asta’s practice was quite successful.

After about twenty more minutes, accompanied by a barely audible gunshot, she successfully mastered this new skill!

“I…

I need to wash up!” After the gunshot, Asta’s fair and delicate little feet were covered in gunpowder residue, looking quite messy.

“No need for such trouble.

Let me show you a fun skill.” Lin Li pulled her into his embrace and activated the Cleaning skill.

Instantly, the gunpowder residue on both of them was cleansed away, as if it had never been there at all.

Asta was gradually getting used to Lin Li’s miraculous methods and didn’t make a fuss.

However, Herta outside the door raised her elegant eyebrows.

She had been closely observing Lin Li, not just studying their little flirtations but also using various means to monitor him.

The moment he used his skill just now, the mirror Herta used for monitoring detected no energy fluctuations at all.

Was it because his energy level was too high?

Or was it because the miraculous method he used didn’t require any energy at all?

Just as Herta was pondering these profound questions, Lin Li made another move.

Under Asta’s gaze, Lin Li grabbed one of her cleansed little feet and brought it to his mouth.

The girl’s jade-like foot was exquisite and perfect, fair with a hint of pink, soft and tender to the touch, and carrying a faint floral fragrance—it was simply a perfect delicacy!

Lin Li intoxicatedly gave it a gentle kiss.

The refreshing floral fragrance lifted his spirits, and he couldn’t help but extend his tongue, lightly tracing it across the sole of Asta’s foot.

The warm, soft, and moist sensation made Asta tremble slightly.

“So ticklish~!” The girl’s soft, sweet murmur didn’t stop Lin Li’s actions.

He licked her entire little foot back and forth, as if eating ice cream, and finally sucked on her crystal-clear, pearl-like toes.

The jade foot, cleansed by the Cleaning skill, was spotless—truly the most precious treasure in the world!

Asta gradually lost the ability to speak.

The unfamiliar, wonderful sensations she had never experienced before kept eroding her soul.

She felt as if she were falling into an endless abyss.

But with Lin Li’s warm embrace, she wasn’t afraid.

Instead, she felt somewhat intoxicated by this descent.

Time passed minute by minute.

With his superb skills, Lin Li sometimes teased Asta’s little rabbit and sometimes admired her fair, delicate jade feet.

Finally…

The wonderful sensations kept accumulating, reaching a limit.

The girl’s murmurs suddenly intensified, turning into captivating soft moans, followed by a soul-stirring shudder.

“Lin Li…

I…

I…

you’re such a bad guy!” Feeling utterly embarrassed, Asta shamefully covered her face, completely unable to look Lin Li in the eyes.

“It’s fine, this is a normal reaction.

No one will laugh at you!”

“Bad guy, I don’t want to talk to you anymore.

I’m leaving!” Asty’s coquettish complaint was full of girlish charm.

She closed her eyes, cleared her mind, and left the NPC World.

After coming and going several times, Asta herself had summarized some patterns.

For example, if she wanted to fall asleep in the NPC World, she just needed to clear her mind for over ten seconds to quickly fall asleep—there was no such thing as insomnia.

Lin Li couldn’t help but pinch Asta’s little face.

This girl was so shy that she ran off without even cleaning up the mess on herself!

After laying the girl in his arms flat on the bed and using his skill to cleanse her once more, Lin Li finally turned his gaze toward the door.

He leisurely straightened his attire and called out, “Lady Herta, after watching for so long, have you gained any insights?”

“My insight is that you’re truly a pervert!” With her presence exposed, Herta showed no panic.

She calmly pushed the door open and met Lin Li’s gaze with composure.

This was indeed her genuine thought—after witnessing what Lin Li had done to Asta, it was hard for Herta not to find him rather perverted.

“Hmm, there’s something I wonder if Asta has mentioned to you?” Lin Li looked Herta up and down with a hint of amusement, a playful smile on his lips.

“What is it?”

“In this world, you must show me respect.

Otherwise, you’ll face punishment.” Lin Li smiled as he slowly walked up to Herta.
