Although she accepted this challenge, currently our cute Miss Little Ya couldn't guess Leticia's real name.
She needed clues. It wasn't that simple.
For now, let's go into the warm house and thoroughly enjoy the feast carefully prepared by the demon race's head chefs.
"Wow, it looks so delicious." Sitting in her seat, Bai Ya said with delight.
Leticia's preparations this time were very thorough. The large round table was filled with various demon race delicacies. The enticing colors combined with sweet aromas made Bai Ya almost unable to hold back her drool.
"Eat, eat. All of this was prepared for Little Ya." Leticia said with a smile.
She was the first to pick up chopsticks, placing a golden dumpling in her bowl.
After she started eating, the other girls sitting around the table also began.
Elsa used the knife and fork that demons generally used. Chopsticks were too difficult for this demon who had absolutely no foundation with them.
Qila, because she had been taught how to use chopsticks by her sister in childhood, generally used chopsticks now.
Although eating demon cuisine, which was closer to Western food, with chopsticks was somewhat strange.
"This meat is so delicious!" Bai Ya was very adaptable. She used chopsticks one moment and knife and fork the next, her little mouth never stopping.
This reminded Leticia of that bastard Bai Ling. Had that guy also passed on her glutton attributes to Little Ya?
Fortunately, Bai Ya proved with her own strength that she couldn't touch her sister's level. Halfway through eating, this girl was holding her stomach, indicating she was already full.
"That's why you shouldn't eat so eagerly from the start." Leticia smiled at Bai Ya. "Look at Elsa—how elegant her movements are. That's a real noble young lady."
Hearing this, Elsa, who was putting food in her mouth, looked at Leticia somewhat helplessly. Honestly speaking, the biggest noble here was you, Leticia.
She was just a mere Grand Duke—how could she compare with Demon King Your Majesty?
But Leticia's words were indeed correct. Elsa's dining movements were the most elegant among the four girls.
Even Qila couldn't beat Elsa in this regard.
Leticia needn't be mentioned. This guy had mixed in the Human World for so long that she had long forgotten the etiquette she learned before. After returning to the demon race with no one daring to criticize her, naturally her elegance completely disappeared.
As for Qila, with her sister being so 'easygoing,' she followed suit and learned bad habits.
Only Elsa needed to maintain her image. These manners were almost carved into her habits.
"But speaking of which, Elsa, your eating speed isn't slow either. You look slow and leisurely, but your speed doesn't lag behind at all. Is this your true strength?"
"Can we not talk about this?" Elsa covered her face. She only dared to eat openly here. In other places, she had to restrain herself and not eat too much.
Otherwise, she might earn the nickname 'glutton' in the noble circles.
This wasn't a joke. After there were no more wars to fight, these demon nobles were really about to die of boredom.
In the past, they could still bully men and women and do things that would anger the people. Now they didn't dare.
Leticia had given the nobles a good lesson before, making them completely correct these bad habits.
Nobles were still nobles, but apart from having this title, they had nothing more noble than ordinary demons.
Previously, a demon born as a commoner but with strong abilities had to bow to noble demons with no strength at all. Now, although noble demons didn't have to bow in return, common demons no longer had to be suppressed everywhere.
This was already quite good progress.
"I haven't eaten at home in so long. I have social obligations every day, lunch and dinner without break." Elsa propped up her head and complained. "Today it's some duke, tomorrow some marquis, the day after some general. I could eat for a month without repeating."
"After a month's rotation, great—it starts all over again. If not for magic helping me control my figure, I'd probably be a ball by now."
Being able to freeload meals was a good thing, but having to freeload meals every day was somewhat troublesome.
Although sometimes Elsa would have others attend banquets in her place, she was always somewhat uneasy when others went.
Fortunately, the actual frequency of banquets wasn't as exaggerated as she just described. There was probably one banquet she had to attend every few days.
"Being able to freeload meals is good. I'd love to freeload meals at other people's places." Leticia chuckled. "Unfortunately, they don't really welcome me."
"Why?" Bai Ya asked curiously. She felt this was a very good opportunity to gather information. If nobles didn't welcome Sister Qianqian, then Sister Qianqian's identity could be narrowed down to a very small range, right?
As long as she knew Sister Qianqian's true identity, her name would naturally be revealed, wouldn't it?
Bai Ya felt like a genius!
After completing this challenge, she would use the request Sister Qianqian promised to have her sister meet with Sister Qianqian. Bai Ya could see that although her sister's face showed nothing, she actually really wanted to come along and stay with Sister Qianqian.
So, as a considerate sister, Bai Ya naturally had to create opportunities for her sister.
Her sister had been very well-behaved these six months, having no unnecessary interactions with any girls. This clearly showed she kept Sister Qianqian in her heart, treating her as her one and only.
And Sister Qianqian seemed the same as her sister, not flirting around. Look at this childhood friend Miss Elsa—hadn't she been ruthlessly rejected by Sister Qianqian?
What did this mean? It meant Sister Qianqian still had her sister in her heart. Otherwise, why would she refuse?
Just because she wasn't suitable?
That was fine too. Anyway, Sister Qianqian was currently unattached. Helping her sister wouldn't be a problem, right?
A good sister like her was something you couldn't find even with a lantern.
"Because they all hate me. I did some things that were scary to them before, and now when they see me... um, they don't even know what I look like."
......
After one meal, our student Little Ya successfully obtained a very important piece of information: Leticia said she was very unpopular with nobles.
And looking at where her Sister Qianqian lived, she didn't seem like someone living in hardship either.
A great noble hated by other nobles—this was quite a small range.
After finishing dinner, Elsa didn't stay long. She had to hurry back to her own home to prevent those restless people from causing trouble.
After Elsa left, Leticia announced Bai Ya's first activity for this vacation: hot springs.
Yes, that's right, hot springs.
Leticia chose this villa precisely because it came with an artificial hot spring. The designer who built this villa was quite amazing.
You should know that even Leticia's Demon King Palace didn't have this artificial hot spring, and most noble houses in Demon King City didn't have them either.
Honestly, this thing had low practicality and was extremely expensive to build. Only a few would build such things.
This wasn't how you showed off vanity. Who would care whether your house had an artificial hot spring? With this financial power, wouldn't it be better to get some other more conspicuous things?
Anyway, Leticia definitely wouldn't build such a thing, but since this pool was already here, not using it would feel like a small loss.
So she decided tonight's activity would be bathing here.
"There's actually a hot spring here, so amazing!" Wrapped in a large towel, Bai Ya looked at the large pool steaming with white vapor before her, her eyes sparkling.
A house with such a large hot spring was simply the place she dared to dream of only in dreams.
"I adjusted the water temperature. It should be just right." Leticia smiled at Bai Ya.
"So sister, why aren't you coming down yet?" Meanwhile, Qila was already soaking in the pool.
The black-haired girl floated lazily in the water. At this moment, she was somewhat like her sister.
After ending a day's hard work, soaking in hot springs after dinner was indeed a very stress-relieving experience.
"Aren't I coming down now?" Leticia threw her bath towel aside and lightly touched the water surface with her toe.
The temperature was suitable. It seemed she had adjusted the temperature correctly.
On the other side, Bai Ya wasn't as refined as Leticia. She jumped directly into the pool. Due to her ungraceful landing posture, the splash she created was as high as a person.
And Leticia, who had just been standing beside Bai Ya, was directly drenched by this splash.
Fortunately, she was wearing a swimsuit now, or she would definitely make Bai Ya understand why flowers were so red.
Somewhat helplessly wiping the water droplets from her face, Leticia suddenly felt like there was a faint gaze from behind her.
"Mm?" She turned around and scanned the area, finding nothing unusual. "An illusion?"
Perhaps.
Her mental power covered the entire villa. If anyone entered, she would definitely notice.
"Sister Qianqian, stop spacing out and come down quickly!" Noticing Leticia still standing there, Bai Ya swam to Leticia's feet and gently poked Leticia's tight calf.
From this angle, Bai Ya could very clearly see things usually invisible, such as Leticia's delicate, small jade feet.
Leticia's figure was actually on the thin side, and this thinness was also reflected in her feet.
From this current angle, Bai Ya could see the dark blood vessels on Leticia's feet. These blood vessels were faintly visible under the snow-white skin, not only not destroying the overall beauty but making this beauty more real.
The girl's toenails were trimmed very well, round and with an enticing color. Bai Ya even had the urge to lick them.
Fortunately, before she could act, Leticia leaped lightly and jumped into the pool.
Unlike Bai Ya's disastrous landing, Leticia's splash was much smaller.
Though she still splashed Bai Ya in the face.
"So, couldn't you just walk down properly from over there?" Qila pointed to the stairs on the other side and asked helplessly.
That place was meant for people to walk down. With both of you jumping in, didn't that make the stairs' existence very awkward?
"That wouldn't be any fun." Leticia giggled. "Actually, I've always wanted to do this, but the pool at home is too shallow. I was afraid I'd break my legs jumping like this."
"I think Central City has swimming pools. Why didn't Sister Qianqian..."
"I refuse to go out, and the water there is cold while the water here is hot. There's no comparison." Leticia leaned comfortably against the pool's stone wall. "Ah, hot baths are truly wonderful."
"It really is like that." Bai Ya also agreed with Leticia's view. She also felt hot baths were very comfortable.
After soaking for a while, Xue'er came over carrying a plate of food.
Placing the plate on the small table beside the pool, Xue'er said to the three girls in the pool: "The small cups contain low-alcohol fruit wine. Miss Little Ya shouldn't drink it."
"Eh?" Bai Ya blinked. If she couldn't drink it, then Xue'er prepared this for Sister Qianqian?
"Drinking a cup before bed helps with sleep." Leticia reached over and took the small cup. "But this fruit wine has very low alcohol content. Little Ya having a sip would be no problem."
This thing's alcohol content was probably lower than alcoholic chocolate. Calling it fruit wine was simply insulting the word 'wine.'
"Really?" Bai Ya blinked. She was indeed curious about what the fruit wine Sister Qianqian drank tasted like.
"Really." Leticia handed the cup to Bai Ya. "Try a sip."
"Sister, Little Ya is still young." Qila quickly spoke up to stop her. Leticia had absolutely no idea what the fruit wine she usually drank was called among demons.
This was called the pinnacle of demon fruit wine, the King's Wine. It might not feel like anything when first consumed, but after a while, the aftereffect was powerful.
Qila had previously tried sneaking a sip out of disbelief, and then she left Leticia with the impression that she absolutely couldn't handle alcohol.
Strangely, Leticia had incredibly ridiculous resistance to alcohol. She almost never got drunk, yet she had no awareness of this herself.
So when Qila saw her sister handing the cup to Bai Ya, she knew she had to stop her sister.
But her words were too late. Bai Ya had already taken a small sip and said this wine really was as Sister Qianqian described—no alcohol taste at all.
