Injured? Oh, right, I was kidnapped last night—well, I guess you could call it kidnapping—and almost killed. Just as I was about to get up, I felt a sharp, throbbing pain in my body, and with a muffled groan, I went back to bed.
Because of the violent movements, the wound that had been bandaged started to bleed again.
"Ouch, that hurts."
Subconsciously gathering the magic power within his body, he finally felt the presence of that reassuring magical power.
A divine light fell upon her as the other party remained wary. The wounds beneath the bandages began to heal noticeably. To the other party's astonishment, Lin Xueyin happily unwrapped the bandages, revealing her delicate body that had recovered.
Of course, another problem arises here: last night, all her clothes were removed to help with her treatment, so now, removing the bandages means there's only one possibility.
A gust of wind blew by, and I suddenly felt a chill on my body. "Ugh..."
Her naked body was completely exposed to the other person's eyes. Although they were both women, Lin Xueyin always felt that the other person was looking at her like a wolf staring at its prey.
Her previously calm and expressionless face now showed a slight ripple. She took out a light blue magic robe from her wardrobe and handed it to the girl who was squatting on the ground, her whole body flushed.
"Get dressed first."
The cold voice rang in her ears again, calming Lin Xueyin down slightly. It was as if her previous feelings had been an illusion, prompting her to quickly put her clothes back on.
"Um, um..."
"Your underwear, is it? I washed it, but it's still not dry. Are you sure you want to wear mine?"
For some reason, although the other person's tone was no different from before, Lin Xueyin always felt that there was a hint of expectation in her voice. Hmm, such a cold woman, it must have been her imagination just now.
"No, no, I'd better not use it." Lin Xueyin waved her hands nervously as she faced the cold beauty who was pressing her closer.
"Are you a pastor?"
"Uh, yes, I am a priest. Oh, by the way, thank you for saving me last night."
Upon hearing this, the cold beauty's gaze shifted to the bandages soaked in blood, making her already icy face appear even more frigid.
"Tell me who was chasing you last night. How dare they cause trouble at Tianlu Academy in the capital? This matter cannot be let go so easily."
"Actually, I don't know why. Last night, I was ambushed on my way back to my dorm from the library. If you hadn't happened to be passing by, I might have been finished."
"So you mean you don't know why they're chasing you?"
"Um. They say it's a chase, but maybe their goal is kidnapping."
Even so, Lin Xueyin herself found it hard to believe that the other party had really kidnapped her. If it had been someone else, that final blow would probably have killed them on the spot.
"You're saying they wanted to kidnap you?" Similarly, the cold beauty who knew about Lin Xueyin's injuries didn't believe it either; such severe injuries could have been caused by a kidnapping attempt.
You know, when I was treating her last night, I don't know why, but I just didn't want anyone to touch her body, so I didn't ask a priest to treat her directly, and I even bandaged her myself.
That deep, bone-deep wound was definitely not inflicted to capture her alive; it was probably even intended to kill her.
"I know you don't believe me, but I have no reason to lie to you, do I?"
I feel a bit wronged. The other party's goal was indeed to capture me, but I don't know what got into them at the end that made them so determined to kill me.
"Never mind, I don't think you'd know for sure. But you just said you came back from the library. Judging by that time, the library should have been closed long ago."
"Huh? I'm not reading in the library, I work there."
Hearing that the other party clearly did not believe her, Lin Xueyin quickly explained.
A hint of a smile flashed in his eyes. Now he knew her true identity. "A priest, working in the library. You are the most sought-after new priest in the academy recently, Lin Xueyin."
His words remained completely devoid of emotion, and his cold face showed no expression whatsoever, leaving Lin Xueyin wondering what he was thinking.
"I am."
I don't know why, but I felt naturally weak in front of that person's cold face, like a student raising their hand cautiously to indicate that what the other person said was absolutely right.
"You can live here with me from now on."
"Huh? So how did you come to this conclusion? Why should I live with you?"
Although she was my savior, I clearly have a dormitory room, so why should I live with her? It's so cold, I'll catch a cold in a couple of days.
"You seem to be thinking about something rude, but whatever."
Seeing the other person's shocked and bewildered expression, as if asking "How did you know?", the cold beauty didn't say anything more.
“I am Allens Irabell.” Seeing that the other person was still looking at him with a blank expression, Irabell continued.
“You are a high-ranking priest and a strategic resource of the empire. Isn’t it right for me to provide you with protection?”
Hmm, that sounds reasonable, but thinking about it carefully...
"I'm all better now, so why do I have to live with you?"
Her beautiful lips twitched slightly, as if she smiled, and then she looked at the bewildered girl with her beautiful, icy blue eyes.
"Are you sure you're safe? Since they know the way back to your dorm and when you'll be back, even if they don't catch you on the way, how can you be sure they won't just walk into your dorm?"

Volume Two, Academy Chapter Twelve: A Perfect Pair
The person who swept the bouquets on the counter back into the trash can was no longer Lin Xueyin, but Irabel, who had come to the library with her.
Without saying much, he took Lin Xueyin's hand and led her behind the counter. "You go ahead and work. I'm going to class. I'll come pick you up after class."
"I'm here to pick you up..." These four words caused an uproar among the surrounding students. What was going on? Had Her Highness started living with this gentle and beautiful girl?
This doesn't make sense. How could these two people have any connection? This completely baffling thing happened right before everyone's eyes, leaving them bewildered and wondering why things had unfolded this way.
Looking at the princess known as the Ice Princess, the most favored princess of the empire, everyone wanted to ask but dared not speak. Kaliel waited for the Ice Princess to leave before secretly tugging at Lin Xueyin's light blue mage robe.
Uh... wait a minute, something strange seems to be happening. This person, who is clearly a priest, is wearing an ill-fitting dress that belongs to the imperial princess.
How could anyone not care? What exactly happened between these two women? As if they had thought of something, the two beautiful girls were naked in bed, doing something that went beyond friendship. Then, they found that their clothes were no longer wearable, so they had to wear each other's clothes to appear in front of everyone.
Completely unaware that they had become a product of the other person's imagination, however, another unexpected person soon appeared.
"Miss Lin, I heard you were attacked last night. Are you alright?"
"Ah? I, I'm fine." Lin Xueyin waved her hands repeatedly, staring at the so-called son of a grand duke, Lockdak, who was accompanied by his guards. Something flashed through her mind, but she couldn't remember what it was.
"Thank you for your concern, I'm safe."
"I have prepared a feast at the nearest hotel. Would you be so kind as to come and enjoy some local specialties to calm your nerves?"
Lin Xueyin always felt it would be awkward to refuse such a polite invitation, but since the other party wasn't a cute girl, there was only one outcome: she had to accept it.
"I'm sorry, I have an appointment with Irabelle. I'll be having dinner with her later."
That's right, it's no longer morning. Lin Xueyin and Irabelle had spent an unforgettable morning together, and now she was wearing her underwear and had come to the library to prepare for her work.
"Oh? That Ice Princess?" As if he had heard an answer that was beyond his expectations, Lockdak frowned slightly. Was the imperial princess also interested in Lin Xueyin?
Of course, her interest here doesn't refer to that aspect. Rather, as a princess of the empire, she extended a hand to a powerful priest, hoping to recruit her into the imperial legion.
It seems we need to speed up our plans. We absolutely cannot let her fall into the arms of the Imperial Army, especially considering that when we investigated her, we discovered that she also had a close relationship with Aria of the Imperial Army. This makes it even more likely that she will defect to the Imperial Army.
Similarly, upon learning that Princess Irabel and Lin Xueyin had become a couple, many forces hesitated. After all, while competing with the Empire might not lead to any major incidents, their resources and other aspects would be on completely different levels.
Of course, some people did not back down because of the appearance of a powerful enemy. After all, the other party was a very beautiful girl. If they married her, would she still be able to join the Imperial Army? In this way, their forces would not only gain a powerful priest, but they would also gain a gentle and lovely beauty. This win-win outcome was naturally the biggest motivation for many faction leaders.
"Sister Xueyin, were you assassinated last night?"
He looked at Lin Xueyin with some concern. Although she was fine now, he shouldn't forget that she was a priest and it was very likely that she had already healed all her injuries.
"I'm fine, aren't I?" He slowly spun around in front of Kaliel, forgetting that he was in the library, which caused a chorus of howls from the surrounding wolves.
Kaliel looked at the woman with disdain. She had absolutely no self-awareness, daring to make such casual gestures in public.
Feeling a little embarrassed, she lowered her head and looked at Kaliel, whose face still showed worry. "I'm fine. Didn't Irabel save me?"
"So you were really assassinated last night?"
Although I saw that the other person was now unharmed, I couldn't shake off my worry.
"Don't worry, don't worry. Irabel asked me to stay with her for the next few days. She'll pick me up after class, and we'll go back together. There definitely won't be any problems."
"Hmm. I hope so." Kali'er gently touched her back, where something seemed to be hidden all along, but Lin Xueyin had never actually asked about it.
The two little girls exchanged a glance, their eyes conveying a knowing understanding. They nodded to each other and continued their work. That night, Irabell led Lin Xueyin, who had finished tidying up the entire library, towards her dormitory. The guards around them were all on high alert.
Meanwhile, in some dark corners of the capital, two small figures moved swiftly through the darkness, soon arriving at a secluded room.
"Hey, isn't this our Gemini Killers? What brings you here?"
"Ex, stop talking nonsense. How's the matter we asked you to investigate?" Ignoring the teasing in the other's words, his crimson eyes were fixed on the man holding a wine glass, about to pour himself a drink.
Before the wine even touched his throat, a crisp sound rang out, and the entire glass shattered, spilling golden liquid all over the man's hand and trousers.
"I said, you two won't even give me this little bit of time... Fine, fine, I'll tell you now." Sure enough, this little girl is someone you can't mess with.
"I've investigated everything you asked me to; it's these three people." He handed the three magically created photos along with a few thin pieces of paper to the two little girls.
"They seem to have received a mission from a mysterious person to kidnap Lin Xueyin, but this doesn't seem to have anything to do with you."
"You don't need to worry about that. Some things need to be said, and some things have already been said..."
"Yes, yes, I know, I know, but these three are all skilled fighters, so you should be extra careful if you go up against them."
There was no reply, only two small figures walking towards the gate; the night was still long...
Thank you to reader @{"reader_id":"636171","reader_name":"大和SAMA"} for the spicy snack! Thank you for your support. Your encouragement is the biggest motivation for me to keep going. I am very grateful. Of course, I also thank all the readers for their votes and monthly tickets.

Volume Two: The Academy Chapter Thirteen: The Twins of the Night
As the darkness of night is driven away by the bright sunlight, people begin a new day's journey. Life goes on, and no matter what happened before, time never stops.
The library was still packed with people. Many of them continued to secretly observe, or rather, spy on, the beautiful new manager while reading.
The bouquets on the counter never stopped. Lin Xueyin only learned later that these rose-like bouquets were called dewdrops, a flower used to express love in this world.
When he found out, he originally intended to make fun of the two little girls for being so young and not learning good things, but they turned the tables on him.
"These flowers are not for us, they are all for you, you idiot."
I'll put aside the matter of being called an idiot by a little girl for now. These flowers are for me, and they're supposed to be an expression of love. My first reaction is, how is that possible? But then, thinking about my current situation and my profession, I suddenly realize that I seem to have fallen into a huge pit, and I'm the one who dug it.
Continuing with her work, Lin Xueyin unconsciously turned her gaze to the two adorable little girls. They were so well-behaved that it was heartbreaking, although they could be quite mischievous at times, but overall they were very obedient.
