Miss Riddler just wants to level up in peace.

Without giving her a chance to resist, Mei pulled Ziyao onto the bed.

As an assist, Kiana closed the bedroom door.

"I'm sorry for giving you some bad memories."

Mei and Ziyao are only half a head apart in height, which makes it easy for her to hug the girl from behind, which is just right.

"It's all in the past, I don't care."

Ziyao struggled, feeling a sense of being spoiled, and thought that if this continued, she would become useless.

"Mei spoils Ziyao too much."

Kiana sat to the side, a hint of jealousy in her voice.

She clearly wanted to hug him too...

Volume 1: Chapter 108 Winning Over and Deceiving

Silent all night.

They were entangled together, and when they woke up, they found themselves being used as body pillows.

The straps of her pajamas slipped down, along with her shirt, revealing a large expanse of her fair skin.

The two girls hugged each other tightly, as if they were about to determine a winner.

The girls' friendships are intertwined, and if viewed through tinted lenses, it seems as if this purity has been tainted.

She tidied the stray hairs beside her forehead, untying the ribbons one by one, letting her long, ink-black hair cascade down.

"Wake up, it's time to get up."

Normally, Mei is the first person to get up.

You must be really tired after running around all night.

After thinking about it, Ziyao decided not to call her.

She tried to get out of bed, but the two people held her tightly.

It took quite a bit of effort to quietly leave the room.

After the rain, the morning sunlight streamed into the living room through the window.

There was a pile of documents on the table, all signed with Theresa's name.

As she passed the sofa, Ziyao found the person in question.

The white-haired loli was curled up on the sofa, still holding a pen in her hand; she must have fallen asleep while working.

He took a blanket from the room and covered Theresa with it.

The faint noise still woke her up. Opening her sleepy eyes, the first person she saw was Ziyao.

"Good morning... Hoo-ha..."

She had just finished speaking when she tried to go back to sleep.

The next second, she felt herself suddenly suspended in mid-air.

Looking up, she saw that Ziyao had picked her up in a princess carry.

When I got to the bedroom door, I found it was locked.

"The key... is in the principal's office..."

Theresa said somewhat embarrassedly that she had just woken up and her mind was still a bit foggy.

It's late autumn now, and the weather is a bit chilly in the mornings. Sleeping on the sofa isn't good for your health.

Following this, Ziyao carried Theresa back to her room.

"Is this how you usually bring girls back to your room...?"

Theresa said lazily, without any malice, simply because she was still half asleep.

"Hey... wait, wait a minute!"

Theresa filled the empty spot, and Kiana unconsciously hugged her while she was asleep.

When she realized what was happening, she was already trapped in her warm bed.

The poor headmistress thus fell into the gentle clutches of evil.

Ta-ta-ta....

Arriving at the dormitory building, the morning sunlight felt especially comforting.

There were two messages on my phone, one of which was from Otto.

[Otto: My ally, wasn't the birth of the Herrscher the very goal of our initial cooperation? As long as you don't interfere, Schicksal will never willingly stand against you.]

The implication is that if Ziyao continues to obstruct his plans, it would be tantamount to going against fate.

Individuals can hardly stand against the state apparatus, let alone an institution like the Mandate of Heaven, which possesses vast resources and power.

Ziyao likely possesses technology or abilities related to resurrection.

There are too many mysteries surrounding her, so Otto doesn't want to break ties with Ziyao.

"A disguised warning... That's really your style."

With a light tap of her finger, Ziyao typed out a string of text.

Sea fish may not know the vastness of the earth, but if they set foot on it, they will pay the price for that freedom.

After turning off her phone, Ziyao bumped into a figure while taking a walk.

Looking against the sunlight, Fu Hua, wearing a short-sleeved shirt and hot pants, was jogging on the path in the morning.

When he arrived at Ziyao's side, she had just stopped.

Despite being opponents just yesterday, Ziyao showed no hostility whatsoever and wasn't even on guard.

Such magnanimity and demeanor filled Fu Hua with admiration.

She thought their meeting would lead to conflict, but it seems she was overthinking it.

"I have something I'd like to ask you."

The mission was over, and the girl in front of him was no longer an enemy, but his roommate in the dormitory.

"Would you mind having a match with me?"

Fu Hua cupped his hands in a gesture of respect, which also carried a hint of apology.

Ziyao declined, saying she wasn't feeling well that day.

"Where did you learn your swordsmanship? Could you tell me?"

After receiving Ling Ran's sword strike yesterday, Fu Hua repeatedly savored the sword intent and wondered who Zi Yao was.

"I think if you upset a girl, the first thing you should do is apologize."

Of course, no matter who the other party is, this is the right thing to do.

Fu Hua is somewhat awkward or, to put it another way, not very tactful when it comes to interpersonal relationships.

"I'm so sorry."

Upon hearing this, Fu Hua bowed deeply to Zi Yao.

His serious attitude was evident even in the correct angle of his bend.

"What did you do wrong?"

"Yesterday's attack, and also the ambush."

Fu Hua couldn't think of any other possibility besides this.

"Yes, but not entirely."

Fu Hua listened attentively to what she was saying, and Zi Yao suddenly had an idea.

———Fooling around.

"If anyone should be angry, it should be Kiana. I'm just a poor soul who got caught up in this."

"Fu Hua... no, Hua."

"Do you really not remember me?"

They approached step by step, intending to put psychological pressure on the girl.

Fu Hua was different from ordinary people; she didn't even blink.

【magnificent】

How long has it been since anyone called me by my real name?

The last time was hundreds of years ago, and in the blink of an eye, everything has changed.

She kept wondering who this girl in front of her really was.

Having lived through countless years, she had sealed away a vast amount of memories, making it impossible to find even a vague trace of her.

Seeing Fu Hua's confusion, Zi Yao began to deceive her, claiming that she was a pioneer of a previous civilization.

"Fourteenth... The last seat should be Pado."

Under normal circumstances, this lie could not deceive any hero.

But if it's Fu Hua, the situation will be different.

"Indeed, that makes sense..."

Fu Hua chose to believe it for now and then take her time to investigate.

Although the logic was sound, she still found it hard to believe the girl's story.

If Ziyao is also a pioneer, learning the Taixu Sword Technique shouldn't be too difficult for her.

"Correct answer,

As for our relationship...you haven't forgotten, have you?

"relation?"
