Reborn As A Villainous Cannon Fodder

-Look at this, how can he still be so protective of his food...-

Jinyue sighed helplessly as Yino gave her a wary look.

First, she took out a pair of brand-new knee-high boots and black thigh-high stockings from her storage ring on her little finger and put them on. Then she took out a dagger and walked forward to help Yino scrape the remaining scales.

"Don't look at me that way; I just saw you had too much work to do, so I'm helping you scrape. I will not battle you over the spoils..."

"Look how petty you are~"

Yino's lips twitched slightly as he exhaled, relaxing from his tense state.

He waved his hand pretending not to care, but his gaze was fixed on the girl's black-stockinged legs wrapped in Martin boots:

"I'm not that petty. I just thought these new shoes suit you well, so I took a few extra looks."

"Oh really... So you like this kind of thing?"

Complimented on her looks, Jinyue felt quality pleased, her cute face turning red as she looked down at her thick, long legs in black stockings.

But she quickly recovered from her ego, narrowing her lovely eyes and looking at Yino suspiciously: "I don't believe you... You were clearly guarding your food just now!"

"I really wasn't, I genuinely like black stockings..." Yino averted his gaze.

"If you like black stockings so much, then if I let you play with my feet later, can you give me half of the Scales of Life?"

Jinyue narrowed her eyes and asked suspiciously.

Upon hearing this, Yino's previously generous smile instantly froze, and even his eyes instinctively turned fierce.

For a moment, Jinyue felt a bit hurt.

"See! You're not craving my body, you're clearly just afraid I'll fight you for the spoils!"

Jinyue puffed out her cheeks, feeling strangely insulted.

Although she wasn't from a noble family, apart from some trickery and deception, she had never done anything like stealing or robbing.

Jinyue really couldn't understand what she had done wrong in front of Yino to make him stare at her like a thief just now!

"By the way, do I look greedy in your eyes?"

Thinking this, she stomped her foot a bit aggrievedly.

The black knee-high boots made a dull sound as they hit the floor.

Yino looked back at her, then at her newly changed heightening boots, raising his eyebrows, wanting to talk but hesitant.

He actually wanted to say that although Jinyue hadn't done any petty bad things in the game, she was never absent from those heinous major bad deeds in the main plot, always fishing in troubled waters.

At this point, he found it quite reasonable to suspect that Jinyue might turn on him afterwards!

After all, technically speaking, although Jinyue's illusions weren't good at dealing with the mindless breeding worm, they were perfect for dealing with intelligent beings like Yino.

If she really set her mind to it, she would be fully capable of using illusions to make Yino hand over all the spoils.

Given Jinyue's heinous crimes in the game, Yino wouldn't be surprised by anything she might do next.

"To be honest, I also don't think Miss Jinyue would do such a thing."

Although he didn't think so in his heart, Yino said seriously.

But before Jinyue could be happy for three seconds, he suddenly added:

"However, I don't know why, but my intuition keeps telling me to remain on guard around you..."

Saying this, Yino shrugged his shoulders.

There were some things he couldn't expose due to his disguise, but as a former victim, he could still stand on moral high ground and make some subtle sarcastic remarks about Jinyue's conscience.

"Is- is that so..."

This time, Jinyue twitched her lips in embarrassment.

Although she pretended not to understand on the surface, cold sweat had already broken out in her heart.

-It seems that for hidden experts like Yino, although illusions can hypnotize the will, the soul still retains an instinctive wariness deep down-

-In the future, it's best not to use illusions on him carelessly-

Jinyue pondered silently, knowing she was in the wrong, and didn't continue to invite trouble on this matter.

Her hands were also quite dexterous, and she quickly helped Yino skin the huge breeding worm.

However... When she saw countless scales being collected by Yino with her own eyes, the fox girl crouched to the side, her lovely eyes unable to hide her envy.

These were all treasures!

"Stop staring at me and drooling, I haven't even asked you for medical fees yet."

Yino said with some disdain as he packed up the spoils.

Jinyue was already very envious, and now being snapped at like this, her slightly puffed cheeks instantly became even rounder, her adorable face filled with rage.

"Hmph, this young lady doesn't have that much money, I can only offer my feet for a gentleman like you to play with another day..."

Her tone seemed to be sulking. But as sarcastic as it sounded, as her words fell, she seemed to think of something, and her little face slowly turned red.

"Well… That's not impossible."

Yino nodded habitually in agreement. But soon, he also noticed something was off.

It seemed that in just one short night, Jinyue had already pinned a strange stereotype on him.

"Waiiit No, I said that I was not playing with your feet, but rather applying medicine.

He cleared his throat, stood with his hands behind his back, and spoke as a proper gentlemen.

Jinyue stared at him suspiciously, letting out a light snort, pretending to be indifferent as she glanced to the side: "But my feet still hurt a bit, I wonder when Young Master Yino can help me apply some medicine again?"

-Oh little fox. That's how you want to play~?-

"We can do it now, take off your shoes and let me see."

"Wait, your face changed too quickly!"

Yino's eyes lit up as he answered without hesitation, instantly making Jinyue feel scared and take two steps back. She even used her fluffy, large fox tail to cover her lower body.

Because just being stared at by Yino made her feel the mark on her sole itch and heat up.

Perhaps it was Jinyue's own psychological effect, but even though her feet were tightly wrapped in boots and stockings, there was still a strange sensation subtly acting up on her soles.

"You don't want to apply medicine, you clearly just want to play with them!" she protested with a red face.

"Miss Jinyue, are you testing my pure heart again?"

Yino raised an eyebrow. He raised his index finger and spoke with a gentlemanly demeanor: "Have you ever heard of a story called 'The Boy Who Cried Wolf'?"

"In the story, a girl repeatedly tests the villagers with lies, exhausting her credibility..."

"Later, when a wolf really came, and the girl cried for help, the villagers thought it was another prank and ignored her."

In conclusion, Yino said very seriously: "So, Miss Jinyue, if you keep testing me like this, if any problems arise later, even if you put your beautiful feet in my mouth, I won't believe you anymore."

"You... you make a good point..."

Jinyue listened in confusion, nodding half-believingly.

But soon, she came to her senses: "Wait, why would I put my feet in your mouth?!"

"It's just a figure of speech, don't make a fuss."

"Is this how all you gentlemen make comparisons?"

"..."

Yino avoided the topic. He was silent for a moment, suddenly remembering a certain stupid antelope... no, nine-colored deer, forgotten in an iron cage, bleating.

"Stop quibbling over these meaningless truths, the nine-colored deer is still waiting for us up there."

Yino said calmly, ready to depart. He dug out the breeding worm's life core and walked towards the depths of the dungeon, finally stopping in front of a recess in a wall, inserting the life core as a pass.

*Rumble—!!!*

As the mechanism turned, an elevator appeared in front of Yino.

Yino stepped onto the elevator but found that the fox girl in the distance hadn't followed.

"Wait, wait for me!"

"Then why don't you run a few steps?"

"How can you say that! It's because of the medicine you applied, making my soles so sensitive now that I can barely stand steady if I walk fast... And you just said you wanted to eat my feet!"

Jinyue's face flushed red as she leaned against the wall.

Even though she had changed into thick boots, every step still made her legs tremble with sensitivity from the friction between her soles and the insoles.

Seeing that the elevator was about to close, she became anxious and almost lost her balance and fell.

At the critical moment, Yino picked her up-

"We don't have much time, hold on me tight."

...

...

...

In the depths of the dungeon, on a dark narrow path.

Yino carried the fox girl on his back, walking a distance and then suddenly stopping.

Each time he made an abrupt stop, the fox girl would be pushed forward by inertia, pressing her chest against his back.

By the seventh time, Jinyue finally vaguely sensed something was amiss.

"Why... why do you keep stopping and starting?"

"You're too heavy, I'm just stopping to catch my breath."

Yino said with a straight face.

But Jinyue's face had already turned red with embarrassment-

"I'm not heavy at all! And you're clearly stopping abruptly on purpose, so I'll accidentally press my chest against you!"

"How is that possible? Even if those little steamed buns of yours rubbed against me, I might not even feel it," Yino said shamelessly.

"What are 'little steamed buns'?"

As a fox demon, Jinyue didn't immediately understand.

After a moment, she looked down, her gaze falling on the slightly raised "little steamed buns," and suddenly realized with a gasp: "Little steamed buns... who are you calling little steamed buns! I'm not little steamed buns!!!"

Jinyue was about to explode with anger, urgently pounding her little fists on Yino's back, but not really using force.

Jinyue didn't know why Yino's head was full of so many strange words, his mouth so glib, and his ways of taking advantage so varied that she couldn't guard against them all.

Jinyue even felt that being with him, she was falling into his traps all the time, unknowingly becoming like this.

"If you're going to be so fussy, then walk by yourself. I'm about to die of exhaustion carrying you," Yino shrugged, simply giving up.

"Fine, I'll walk by myself!"

Jinyue puffed out her cheeks, jumping down to follow behind Yino.

The more she thought about it, the more wronged she felt, walking with her head down, still sulking.

But after just a few steps, Yino suddenly stopped abruptly again, and Jinyue, caught off guard, bumped into his back once more, her little steamed buns almost completely pressing against Yino's body.

"Why, why did you suddenly stop again-!"

This time, she really couldn't contain her embarrassment.

How could there be someone like Yino in this world, who was both likable yet so annoying and always tormenting people!

Who's really the fox here?

-Why do I feel like I'm the victim when I stay with Yino?

"No, no, this time I'm really not taking advantage of you, I just remembered something important!"

Yino turned his head, raised his index finger, and said quite seriously.

Jinyue nodded, obediently listening, but thinking carefully, she felt like Yino had glossed over some crucial issue.

"By the way, Jinyue, do you know?"

"When you were missing, I found a captive nine-colored divine deer at the end of the mountain temple dungeon, and that nine-colored deer had a very peculiar characteristic..."

Yino's words became more and more mysterious.

Talking about serious matters, the atmosphere became serious, and Jinyue also thought of the true purpose of tonight's journey, immediately narrowing her enchanting eyes.

And just when Jinyue was most focused, listening attentively, Yino raised his eyebrows and said very seriously in a low voice:

"I discovered that the legendary nine-colored deer actually bleats like a sheep!"

"???"

"Hey, don't look at me like I'm an idiot! That nine-colored deer really goes 'meh meh meh' like that!"
