They're not even human anymore; those wicked women can cry even more miserably.

After resting for a while, the lingering heat slowly dissipated, and strength returned to my limbs.

As Diana looked toward the villa, her fighting spirit grew stronger.

That's precisely why it's so worth conquering!

Diana glanced downwards.

Hmm... that doesn't seem like a good idea.

But she quickly regained her composure.

A stack of documents lay before him, but a thoughtful look gradually appeared in his eyes.

Char Aznable's background seems simple and innocent.

He was just an ordinary orphan who was taken in by the Gunn family.

But is it really that simple?

Diana gently tapped her forehead, feeling a slight headache, and began to have some guesses in her mind.

Her gaze lowered, her eyes slightly closed, and she murmured softly.

Could it be her?

His expression and words seemed to have a hidden meaning.

Char breathed a sigh of relief once he was sure that Diana had left.

Despite his confident and self-assured demeanor, dealing with this capricious headmaster is no easy task.

Char stood up, but felt something under his feet.

Bow down.

It's a small, symmetrical item with a light purple lace pattern.

Xia's eyebrows twitched.

Guess what this is?

He bent down, picked up the little thing, and frowned as he examined it.

It feels quite nice to the touch, with a very comfortable texture.

"A gift of defeat?"

Char wasn't sure.

Then came the感慨 (feelings of deep emotion).

As expected of the older generation, they really know how to be open-minded.

He clicked his tongue in disapproval and sized it up for a while longer.

Fortunately, Long wasn't home at this time, otherwise it would have been really difficult to explain.

As Xia was reflecting on this, he heard the door open.

Char: ...

Who is the fastest runner in the entire universe?

Cao, he'll show up whenever you mention him.

"I'm back."

A sweet and gentle voice came from the entrance hall.

The moment the succubus princess returned home, she paused for a moment, then closed her eyes and her delicate nose twitched.

"Huh? I smell a strange woman's scent."

Oboro's eyes widened slightly as she quickened her pace to take off her shoes, and then she saw Xia standing in the living room.

She frowned slightly, feeling utterly confused.

why?

The look in his eyes as he examined Char was full of suspicion.

"Did you bring someone back?"

Will Char admit it?

No, of course not.

Confess and you'll be treated leniently, but you'll serve your life in jail; resist and you'll be punished severely, but you'll be allowed to go home for the New Year.

"how is this possible?"

"But I can smell it."

"What, is your nose like a dog's?"

Xia Ya teased, tossing his hand behind his back onto the sofa, and took two steps forward, about to reach out and pinch Long's upturned nose.

He had it all planned out: he used physical contact to scare off the socially awkward princess, then used the opportunity to move the stolen goods!

Unfortunately, it's not just that Long's nose is like a dog's.

She spotted something on the sofa.

"Wait, what is this?"

Oboro reached out to block Xia's outstretched hand, walked around him, and reached for something on the sofa with a suspicious look on his face.

Big crisis!

How come they were caught on the spot?

Damn it, is this strategy already going to be treated like trash before it's even begun?

That's a bit bad.

Long's eyes widened.

She picked up the little trinket, looked at it, then looked at Xia Ya, her eyes widening in surprise.

Incredible.

She looked down at herself again.

The Flat Princess suffered a devastating blow.

Is this a size that a person can wear?

What kind of football field can use something like this?

impossible!

Absolutely impossible!

Long found it hard to believe that the little thing in her hand was exactly what she had been thinking about.

However, Char misunderstood.

He touched his nose, feeling somewhat embarrassed, and began trying to find a suitable excuse.

"Ahem, I haven't been sleeping well lately, so I bought an eye mask."

The lie was clumsy.

As a girl, how could Oboro not recognize this little gadget?

But this size... Oboro, who refused to accept reality, believed Char's explanation without hesitation.

She glanced at the trinket in her hand, then at Xia.

"Did you buy a bigger eye mask? Did you get ripped off?"

She preferred to believe Xia's explanation rather than that thing.

Xia Ya never expected that his flimsy excuse would actually be accepted.

Ah, this... I feel even more sorry for them.

The other side.

Lilith was devastated after Char and Diana left.

Just thinking about how Char lives in a big villa and is pampered by his older sister...

Sour and sour.

I wish I could take his place!

Lilith's expression hardened, and she made up her mind.

Tia was a little startled by the young lady's sudden serious expression.

Did they find out that I was secretly collecting her used items?

"I've decided that I still have to take on the responsibilities of being a fiancée!"

Tia: "Huh?"

Lilith had already made her plans.
