I'll even show you crossdressing men.

That was the worst injury he had ever suffered. He was beaten until he was covered in wounds, bleeding on the ground, and his consciousness was blurred. He was about to die.

A girl in a white dress, with long, flowing white hair and small leather boots, appeared before him. In the bright sunlight, he couldn't see her face, but he knew she was radiating a warming power that healed his injuries.

He heard her words, which sounded somewhat distressed: "You must cultivate diligently in the future, so that you can avoid getting hurt like this." Her gentle words and touching voice made him feel dizzy for a moment, and then he fainted.

He didn't know how much time had passed, but when he woke up, the girl was gone. All his injuries had healed, except for some discomfort from excessive bleeding and prolonged exposure to the sun.

That event was a turning point in his life, causing him to focus on diligent cultivation. Ultimately, with his extraordinary talent, he rapidly improved and finally met the Heavenly Academy's admission requirements for martial arts students, thus arriving here.

He sealed away that experience, that girl, and his own heart at the time, keeping them as his most precious memories, hoping to meet her again someday.

When he first saw "White Fairy Princess Mizuiro" in this city, he was so excited that he thought it was her. Unfortunately, after a few concerts, he realized that he had mistaken her for someone else.

The girl in my memory wore a long white dress. Although I couldn't see her face clearly, she must have been very beautiful and gentle, unlike Ji Shuise who gave off a bewitching aura.

Although disappointed, he at least had a fairly good impression of the city.

Until he met Ji Xiuyu, a young man who, despite being a man, was more beautiful and attractive than most women in the world, his gentle and endearing temperament made him feel as if he were seeing the girl from his past.

Unfortunately, he knew he wasn't her, because in his heart, she was a true goddess, a goddess he would pursue his whole life, not a boy.

Even so, the similar temperament and personality left a deep imprint on the boy's subconscious that he himself was unaware of.

This impression, as they spent more time together, caused him to develop unique feelings towards it. Perhaps to escape, or perhaps to prove he wasn't, he became even more promiscuous.

It wasn't until this incident that he suddenly realized that his heart, now filled with his own shadow, was filled with his own thoughts.

It's ridiculous that I would have such thoughts for a man. I actually want to have him for the rest of my life, to hold him in my arms, and to let him live happily under my protection.

However, all of this shattered. He overheard both of her insincere words, creating an irreparable rift in their relationship.

Bai Ke and Ye Xuexin's actions made his departure inevitable. The unknown person who had just assaulted him merely made him realize just how important that person was to him.

“Even if you were a man, I would still…” He lowered his hand, looking at Ji Xiuyu with tender eyes, wanting him to give up the idea of ​​leaving.

However, although Xiuyu is gentle, he is not the kind of person who cannot make decisions. Once he makes a decision, he will definitely do it, even if it hurts himself.

Moreover, Ishikawa Yuya's words wounded his heart even more. He parted his tightly pursed cherry lips slightly and remained silent for a while before saying lightly, "Yes, just because I'm a man... Heh... So, you don't have to be so conflicted. Just let me leave, and everything will be fine."

"I..." This time, there was really no way to explain. Ji Xiuyu's words made him feel that no matter how he explained, it would be wrong.

This misunderstanding was too deep, so deep that no amount of explanation could clear it up.

Seemingly aware of his silence, Ji Xiuyu did not dwell on it any longer. Instead, she opened her eyes, slowly straightened her back, and walked barefoot down to the bathroom.

As if he didn't care at all that he was right behind him, he removed all his clothes, leaving his snow-white body naked in the moonlight.

He tossed his clothes into the basket by the door, went inside, and without even closing the bathroom door, sank into the bathtub, immersing himself in the warm water.

“If… you have to leave, then…” Ishikawa Yu was unwilling, truly unwilling. He wanted to try one last time. Even if he hated him, as long as he got his body and made him have an unforgettable memory of him, he could make him remember him.

There will always be a way in the future. He will do anything to make sure the other person remembers him.

Thinking of this, he turned around, took off all his clothes, and walked naked into the bathroom. This time, no matter how much he resisted, he would not let go.

The moonlight outside the building was waning, carrying a hint of desolation...

P.S.: I wasn't lying about the new introduction... Seeing how enthusiastically you guys are voting, I feel like I'm going to get a knife in my mouth if I don't update soon...

Updates and such~

Chapter Nineteen: The Crimson Night Has Finally Passed

"If you dare touch me, I will hate you for the rest of my life. Remember that." Hearing the voice, Ji Xiuyu slowly sat up in the water, smoothed her hair behind her back, and looked at the naked boy in front of her. She was no longer shy and lost in thought as before, but very calm, very calm.

"If you leave, you will forget me, and that would be even more unacceptable to me. So I would rather use this method to get you than let you forget me."

Ishikawa Yuya slowly lifted his leg and stepped into the water, facing him. The anxiety and anger on his face had vanished without a trace, leaving only calm.

"I know I can't stop you from leaving, so let's make this night a little more beautiful, and treat it as a memory."

Even though he had never tried what it was like with a man, he was determined to have his body with him.

"Do you know what you're doing?" His eyes didn't flinch, nor did they show any embarrassment; they were like a stagnant pool, as if he didn't care about his words or actions.

“I know this is against the will of the world. But even that guy Bai Ke can ignore all the rules and regulations of the world, so how can I lose to him?” Ishikawa Yuya nodded. He really didn’t want to worry about these things anymore.

"Then let me ask you." Ji Xiuyu's emotions remained unchanged, and she didn't even care about his changes. She had given up on him now, hadn't she?

"Are you just being stubborn with Bai Ke, or do you really think that way? Or do you simply believe that doing this is what you truly want?"

Ji Xiuyu turned to the side and picked up a scarf, wrapping it around himself. He looked at the moonlight streaming in through the bathroom window, his voice somewhat ethereal.

"Why should I argue with him? I really don't want to worry about anything anymore. The more you worry, the more you lose, and I don't want to see that happen."

Ishikawa Yuya shook his head. He had just questioned his own heart and found that it was indeed his own thought, and had nothing to do with anyone else.

"Alright, I'll ask you one more question, and you tell me the answer." Ji Xiuyu turned his head, his eyes suddenly becoming sharp. Although there was no energy in his body, his gaze made him tremble.

"If you get me, what will happen to Lina? Will you let yourself lose her? Or abandon her? Or keep it from her? Or..."

As Ji Xiuyu spoke, he slowly stood up and gradually removed the bath towel, revealing glimpses of her snow-white body. In the end, leaving only a portion to cover what shouldn't be exposed, he asked with a beautiful smile, "Or do you merely see me as a plaything?"

His series of questions silenced Ishikawa Yuya. Yes, if he did these things, how could he face Lina?

He knew exactly what his feelings for Lina were; it was definitely not just casual flings with other girls, but genuine affection. He didn't want to lose her, and perhaps, he even wanted to stay with her forever.

However, to achieve this, he must be worthy of her, which would inevitably mean losing Ji Xiuyu.

His eyes were fixed on the "girl" whose skin was still dripping with water, whose face wore a gentle smile, and whose cheeks were flushed with a faint blush. His heart found it hard to make a decision.

"Right, you don't know who to choose either, do you? So, please let me go, okay? I'm really disappointed in you. This has happened time and time again, and I'm so tired."

Seeing his expression, Ji Xiuyu knew that she could not get an answer from him now, so after saying that, she did not say anything more, but simply stepped down into the bath.

The last shred of covering slipped from his body, revealing his slender, perfect back. At this moment, Ji Xiuyu was undoubtedly as beautiful as a goddess descended from heaven. It's a pity, why aren't you a woman?

"Yongye, from now on, we have nothing to do with each other anymore. You go your way, and I'll go mine. We'll leave each other alone." After saying this, he walked inside without looking back.

The bath he had just taken had washed away the dirt on his body, but he still went to the toilet at the back, turned on the shower, and rinsed himself off with various shower gels before coming out.

The boy who came out was already dressed in a pure white nightgown, hiding his slender body and only revealing a pair of incredibly long and beautiful legs.

Now, he no longer hides anything and will live the life he wants.

"Hideyuki..." Ishikawa Yu, buried in the water, really had no way to stop him. This time, his departure was inevitable and something he couldn't change.

Who can he hate now?

Did Princess Xiuyu leave out of hatred?

Do you hate that you have Lina?

Do you hate Bai Ke and Ye Xuexin?

Or do you resent the cruel twists of fate?

No, he can't hate any of these people; the only person he can hate is himself.

"As expected, I'm someone no one can rely on." A bitter feeling spread through his heart. He had missed his last chance, and there was no way to make up for it later.

Listen to the melody played by the wind.

Some people are returning home under the moonlight.

Why care who you pledge your love to?

In the end, it's all a waste of time...

The ethereal singing voice rang out from the balcony, carrying far and wide through the chaotic campus.

This song seems to be a young girl expressing her unrequited love, sighing alone as she gazes at the moon, and ultimately choosing to leave.

But this feeling, this love, was conveyed to everyone who heard it through this song.

Perhaps they didn't understand what it meant, or perhaps they didn't know who sang it, but the sorrow in it unintentionally touched them.

"This singing voice is in no way inferior to Hime Mizuki's, is it? Who exactly is she?" Xiu Yu's voice was originally neutral with a soft tone, and when she sang, she was used to making her voice ethereal and gentle, which was more beautiful than the voices of most girls in the world.

Therefore, it's not wrong for those who heard it to think it was sung by a girl.

However, before the truth is revealed, who knows who he really is?

Anyway, after this crimson night passed, the school gained another legend of a songstress, the enchantress of the night.

No one found out who was singing softly; all they knew was that such a beautiful song, and the person who could sing it, should not be overlooked.

However, did anyone actually find him? No.

The only person who knew the truth remained silent; once he left, they decided not to cause him any trouble.

The next day, when he opened his eyes, the handsome young man on the other bed was nowhere to be found.

"Oh, I've finally lost you..."

Chapter Twenty: From Today Onwards, Young Miss

“From today onwards, Hime Hideyu will no longer live as a boy in Tenjōin, but as a girl. Do you understand what I mean?” In an elegantly decorated office, a blonde woman in a gorgeous long dress sat behind her desk writing something. On her desk was a strange black crystal with two lines of text written on it.

Above it was a line of large gold lettering that read "Alicia," and below it, a line of smaller white lettering that read "President of the Heavenly Academy." This person was undoubtedly the most powerful person in this prestigious school.

Sitting in front of her was a beautiful young woman with long, white hair reaching her hips. She wore a white long dress, her face was stunningly beautiful, her eyes were innocent yet charming, and her every smile and frown was slightly alluring. When her delicate red lips parted, they also had a deadly seductive quality. She looked at the woman in front of her and listened to her words, somewhat timid and hesitant, yet she dared not refute her.

“I know your purpose is to fulfill your mother’s last wish, but it’s just too attractive for you to live here using your own gender. And with your appearance, it’s best for you to live as a young girl. There’s no need to be so obsessed with gender.” Alicia looked up, adjusted her glasses, and sighed as she looked at her with her golden eyes.

“But this is a bit inconvenient, since I have the identity of Ji Shuise, and it’s easy for people to recognize me.” Indeed, the person sitting in front of her was Ji Xiuyu, who had already moved out of the dormitory.

However, this outfit, which has now transformed into long, moon-white hair and a light, melodious, and infinitely gentle girlish voice, reveals her current predicament.

"Don't think I don't know, Xiuyu. Although you don't have combat abilities, I know all about your strange and special abilities. You can fool others, but you can't fool me. With these abilities, I don't think anyone will be able to see through you." Alicia shook her head; she knew exactly how outstanding the person in front of her was.

Perhaps only those who value so-called strength would look down on her. Only she knows that her presence and her absence make a world of difference.

"But, Alicia, isn't it too difficult for me to fulfill Mother's last wish like this?" She kept thinking about the words her mother had told her before she died. It was precisely to achieve this goal that she asked Alicia to let her enter Tenjouin.

That task might be possible to accomplish if she were a man. But as a woman, forget about it; the difficulty doubles, and she lacks the confidence.

Otherwise, she could have entered the Heavenly Courtyard as a woman from the beginning. Why did she have to go through so much trouble and a bunch of annoying things by being a man?

“I will help you with your matter, and I think only women have the potential to achieve that goal. As for men, I worry that you will face a lot of interference.”

Alicia seemed to know exactly what kind of trouble she was going to cause. Her golden eyes narrowed slightly, with a hint of danger in them: "If that Ishikawa Yuya dares to cause any more trouble, I'll send him straight to the Sky Prison. I suppose that place would be very suitable for him."

"No need, he won't bother me anymore." When she mentioned that person, Ji Xiuyu subconsciously bit her lip. She didn't want him to enter her life again, and this unbearable memory should be abandoned in a corner.
