Chapter 126
And so, “Not lewd for a day, epilepsy attack” became Adele’s incantation for revealing her witch form.
What a mess...
Adele’s actions were like shooting herself in the foot.
But Seraph was oblivious to this, still continuing her explanation.
“Domains have many uses, the most important being that it’s your home ground.”
“You will receive a certain enhancement.”
“And theoretically, those whose strength doesn’t exceed yours by too much, if they are pulled into your domain without any defenses, they must also abide by the rules of the domain to escape.”
“Either you let them go out of kindness, or someone from the outside world disturbs your domain.”
Just like Li Lige that time, Edith, the president of the Black Feather Society, was unknowingly trapped in Li Lige’s domain, unable to escape.
She was even affected by the power of the domain, losing her mind, and falling into memories of the target of her hatred.
And the person Edith hated was her own mother, who gave birth to her and raised her.
If she could take revenge on her mother, she could resolve her inner demons and escape from the domain.
But she couldn’t.
Without external intervention, Edith’s life and death were practically in Li Lige’s hands.
With just a thought from Li Lige, Edith’s fate could be decided.
But Li Lige didn’t want to cause such serious trouble for Adele, so she gave up.
“Then what is the rule of my domain?”
Adele asked softly, suppressing her frustration.
“The rule of the Lust Witch is also very simple.”
“It is to resist your own lust.”
“Just like the woman you mentioned, Li Lige, those who fall into her domain must kill the person they hate, the person they fear, to break free from the domain’s confinement.”
“‘Hatred’ stems from the original sin of wrath, and wrath admires the brave, believing that the existence of cowards is meaningless.”
“The more loyal someone is to ‘lust,’ the more they will be trapped in your domain, Adele. At that time, they will become your lambs to be slaughtered.”
Adele pondered.
“So, if I pull someone into my domain, and they can’t resist my temptation, they will become fish on my chopping board?”
“That’s right, you have good comprehension.”
Seraph didn’t skimp on her praise for Adele.
And Adele even learned to draw inferences.
“Then conversely, the more pure and virtuous someone is, the more they adhere to their principles and practice abstinence, the less effective my domain will be on them?”
“Yes, just like now.”
The angel Seraph smiled slightly.
She stretched out a hand, opened it in front of Adele, and then gently clenched it.
Instantly, Adele’s domain melted away.
The surrounding scene returned to reality, back to Adele’s bedroom!
It was as if they had never left!
The angel Seraph easily broke Adele’s domain.
Because of her holy nature, Adele’s temptation had no effect on her.
“It’s just teaching, you’re hurting my feelings by doing this!”
Adele stomped her foot in dissatisfaction.
Because Seraph’s actions were like saying to Adele directly – “Your charm has no effect on me.”
It was too frustrating!
The angel’s low EQ was evident.
“...”
“Okay, I’ll be careful next time.”
But the angel wasn’t stubborn, Seraph said so.
After explaining this, it meant that the angel’s initial teaching was complete.
Adele could at least start using her witch powers simply.
As for more complex applications, Seraph didn’t think it was appropriate to teach Adele at this time, so she didn’t cram everything into Adele’s head.
Just as she was about to say something else, a “scratch, scratch” sound from the window caught the attention of both Seraph and Adele.
Adele turned her head and saw a sneaky kitten trying to pry open the window with its front paws.
Or maybe it knew that it couldn’t open the window, and was just trying to alert Adele to its arrival by making this sound.
“First Snow...” Adele murmured the kitten’s name, then seemed to remember something and quickly turned back.
But at this time, the angel Seraph had already disappeared without a trace.
“...”
Although Adele felt a bit strange about Seraph’s disappearance, she quickly adjusted and ran towards the window, complaining as usual,
“Coming, coming! You little glutton, you really come on time every day to remind me to feed you.”
“Don’t you know your sister is poor? I’m almost in debt from studying in the academy, my monthly allowance isn’t enough at all.”
“Are there too many rich vampires in the academy, so you think every vampire is rich? (angry)”
Adele had never heard of any poverty subsidies at Cromwell Academy.
If there were any, how could they not be given to her and Tang Linlang back then?
“Meow...”
First Snow let out a meow of unknown meaning, but Adele thought that she was probably defending herself.
Saying, “I eat very little, meow! I can eat even less in the future, meow...”
Even if it wasn’t, it didn’t stop Adele from opening the window and scooping First Snow, the Cat-Bird, into her arms.
Then she carried her to the cans and opened a can of high-grade tuna, which was indeed an expensive item for Adele.
Usually, Adele would subconsciously choose cheap and affordable things, paying attention to cost-effectiveness.
But when it came to pets, she was incredibly generous.
“Eat well, little glutton.”
Adele gently stroked First Snow’s back, and of course, her folded wings, as she said,
“I’m going downstairs to prepare my own breakfast.”
“I’m going to work at the Archives Management Bureau later, do you want to come with me, First Snow?”
Adele thought to herself that doing that kind of boring work, she couldn’t play games or watch dramas.
Having a cute kitten to keep her company would at least help pass the time and alleviate her loneliness.
“Meow!”
This time, Adele understood.
It meant “I want to go, meow!”
At the same time, a purring sound came from First Snow’s throat.
This meant that the cat was in a good mood, a kind of happiness engraved in a cat’s voice.@@@@
Adele smiled slightly, petted First Snow’s head, and then went downstairs, took out frozen convenience food from the refrigerator, and heated it up in the microwave.
First Snow tirelessly stuck out her pink tongue with barbs, licking the high-grade tuna can.
But no matter what, it didn’t change the fact that Adele was a “worker.”
She had to work at an internship unit while she was in school, and her identity as a witch was also, in a sense, working for that unknown “Lord.”
The angel Seraph was a high-level worker, Adele’s superior.
But for now, she didn’t have any orders for Adele.
On the contrary, Seraph was very helpful to Adele.
She had been teaching her how to be a qualified witch.
After reminding Adele, Song Qi returned to her office to slack off.
As for Adele, she held First Snow in her arms and turned on the outdated computer in the archives room.
While waiting for the computer to boot up, she noticed the worry in First Snow’s eyes.
Adele seemed to realize something and chuckled softly.
“Don’t worry too much, little silly cat.”
“I’ll finish work soon, and then we’ll play games, okay?”
First Snow nodded and quietly transformed into a petite girl in Adele’s arms, hugging Adele slightly tighter, showing her concern.
At that moment, Adele felt her witch’s Origin Quality stirring!
If it weren’t for Seraph’s seal on this Origin Quality, with Adele’s inability to resist temptation and her tendency to easily fall, she would probably have grown wings and a tail by now, ready to devour the cute little cat-girl First Snow!
“Why suddenly... okay, I’ll hug you for a while.”
“Meow.”
“Adele... is the best, meow!”
First Snow suddenly kissed Adele’s face, then her cheeks flushed red like she was drunk.
She immediately buried her face in Adele’s chest, not daring to let Adele see.
Otherwise, she would die of embarrassment.
Adele was touched by the girl’s words.
But her surprise was also genuine.
At the same time, she increasingly suspected that she was marching towards a path of self-destruction.
If one day Principal Winona found out that she had abducted and bewitched her cat...
What would await Adele then?
Adele suddenly shivered, not daring to think further.
But her body was still honest, holding the soft and obedient little cat-girl in her arms.
First Snow loved being hugged by her sister, meow...
Her sister smelled so good.
Being touched by her sister in different places felt different, some were comfortable, some were embarrassing... but they all pointed to the same feeling, “like.”
Unfortunately, Adele only hugged her for a while before gently patting her butt and telling her to go play by herself, saying “Sister has to work.”
“Work”...?
What a hateful word.
She hated it!
A mist of grievance suddenly appeared in First Snow’s eyes, making them look hazy and beautiful, like a blue crystal lake shrouded in fog.
Xiao Wei also had to work, that’s why she gradually had less time to play with her.
Adele also had to work, she couldn’t continue hugging First Snow.
So, if you asked a kitten what she hated most in this world, it would definitely be work, meow!
But there was nothing she could do, First Snow couldn’t make work disappear, she was just a weak, pitiful, and gluttonous kitten.
So, letting out a dissatisfied grumble, First Snow transformed back into a cat and jumped out of Adele’s arms.
Adele didn’t play with her, she started typing on the keyboard, and First Snow went to find her own fun.
The kitten was sometimes attracted by small insects in the corners of the walls, and sometimes she would run to the window sill and bite the flowers and plants in the pots.
As for the archives piled up on the rows of heavy bookshelves, First Snow had no interest, meow.
She could read, but she didn’t like to study!
Time flew by, Adele kept saying she was going to slack off, but her work efficiency was actually quite high.
Around eleven o’clock in the morning, she had already finished her morning’s work. The director probably went to “touch fish” and didn’t come to check.
So Sister Song Qi allowed Adele to leave work early and stamped her internship logbook with the organization’s seal.
This meant that Adele had already completed half of her second day’s task.
Her internship lasted for three days. As long as she endured another day tomorrow, Adele’s suffering would be over.
If Celeste dared to arrange such a “safe” job for her again on her own initiative, Adele would definitely “beep—” her until she meowed!
“First Snow, let’s go.”
First Snow happily jumped into Adele’s arms and, when no one was around, transformed into a petite and adorable silver-haired girl.
But she cleverly hid her wings, cat ears, and tail.
And her fur turned into a simple white dress, draped over her body.
First Snow was very experienced, she knew that this way, Adele wouldn’t worry about her.
She was also a cat-girl who had lived in the mundane world, she knew how to hide her identity, meow.
As expected, when Adele saw her like this, her worries subsided.
But she still deliberately teased First Snow.
“You’re so heavy~”
Adele pretended to be struggling to hold her.
First Snow’s face instantly flushed red, embarrassed.
“I’m not heavy, First Snow is not heavy, meow!”
But secretly, the little cat-girl’s heart was in turmoil.
She even started to doubt herself – Was it really because she had been eating too much lately, meow! If she became fat, would Adele dislike her, meow!
Seeing First Snow’s pupils trembling, Adele coughed lightly and said,
“Just kidding, First Snow is so light, I won’t get tired even if I hold you for a long time~”
Five minutes later.
“...Um, First Snow, can you get down for a bit?”
“???”
“Ahem, I mean, let’s just hold hands and walk, there are too many people watching, I’m shy.”
“Hold hands... hold hands, meow!”
First Snow was instantly moved by Adele’s suggestion.
The two girls walking hand in hand on the street became a beautiful sight in the city.
But neither Adele nor First Snow noticed that someone was quietly following them not far behind.
It was a petite woman with light brown, slightly curly hair.
She covered her face with a mask, revealing only a pair of deep and mysterious eyes, staring at Adele and First Snow in the distance with an inexplicable gaze.
When her gaze moved downwards, landing on their tightly clasped hands, the woman’s lips pursed, her expression unreadable.
They had gone from staying out all night to openly being together during the day...
First Snow, you’re still naive, you don’t understand the wickedness of the human heart.
I have to vet this girl personally.
