The interstellar communication ended, and Char withdrew his mental power.
He opened his eyes and saw Diris standing obediently beside his bed, folding the quilt carefully and cleaning up the traces in the room.
Now Diris has regained her past image of a dignified and hardworking student council president.
"Actually, I'm a little curious. Between the kind and upright student council president and the succubus princess before, which one is the truer you?"
Char looked at the slender girl in front of him and sighed unconsciously.
"How do you say it?"
Diris tilted her head slightly and blinked her soft eyes: "Both."
"If I have to say... I think the image in the human world is closer to my true self."
"Although it was just a disguise to lurk in Saint Laurent College at the beginning, it was a false mask."
...
...
"But when I wear a mask for a long time, I gradually become like the mask."
She thought about it before speaking again.
"On the contrary, the image of the succubus before was completely based on my imagination of what the people of the tribe should be like."
"Honestly speaking, to maintain the so-called charming charm, you have to speak in a pretentious tone."
“I have to add onomatopeia like “ne”, “oh”, “na” at the end of every sentence… It’s quite tiring.”
"By the way, what did His Highness talk to you about?"
"It's nothing."
Char silently summoned Silver and held the little ferret in his arms to use as a pillow.
"It was just a deal. I pledged my loyalty to Her Majesty the future Empress of the Empire."
"And she said that she would fulfill my dream and help me complete the real 'Guide to the Evaluation of Alien Customs'. The first stop would be you, the evil succubus."
"In fact, I wouldn't mind if that were the case."
Diris smiled faintly and stared at the gradually fading silver moon outside the window.
In her eyes, the rosy red color that was unique to a succubus flickered and intertwined with the original light brown color.
"Char, your dream is delicious. Very tasty."
"Besides, Your Highness the Princess has done me a favor. If I can repay this favor by becoming your personal OOO, then I will definitely not refuse."
"A favor?"
Diris's eyes wandered, and she spoke softly, "There are no laws and principles of the human kingdom in the Abyss Plane."
"If it weren't for your Highness providing a place for us to stay, my people and I might have become the embers of the remaining fire at the bottom of the abyss."
Xia nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
The last succubus royal family, the abyss plane, and their people have lost their place to settle down...
Any combination of these keywords can produce a long, thought-provoking story.
I can only say that every family has its own problems...
The same goes for him, Xiao Ai, and Diris.
Maybe similar doubles really do attract each other.
Among the people gathered around Char, too many had a displaced past.
…
"Well, please allow me to take my leave, Char-san."
Diris lifted up her white skirt and gave Xia a standard aristocratic salute.
Her figure began to fade little by little, and soon disappeared into the twilight before dawn.
Char pulled himself together and opened the closet beside him.
Then, looking at the silver mirror in the closet, the jade-like blood moon slowly appeared.
"remember."
"After I returned to the bedroom, I spent more than ten minutes washing up, and then went to bed to rest." "I didn't wake up until the early morning."
After completing the psychological suggestion, Xia changed his clothes into new formal clothes, then opened the door again, got up and went downstairs.
It was already dawn.
The blonde girl was kneeling in the thin sunlight.
She was wearing a plain white furry pajamas and stockings made of jet-black silk mesh. Her shoulder-length blonde hair was tied into two ponytails with two simple knots.
Different from the sharp aura that was revealed before.
At this moment, Airola gave Char a much softer and more natural feeling.
Just like a sheathed sword, its edge is restrained, but the potential threat is even greater than before.
This means that she has completely mastered the power of the three rings.
Noticing Char's arrival, Airola stood up and placed two cups of brewed coffee on the table.
She handed a cup of coffee to Char and held up another cup herself: "Has President Diris left?"
This time, Char chose to give up resistance. "So, what is the principle of pulling and playing this game?"
“It’s very simple.”
Airola sipped her coffee.
Unlike the unhappiness that was clearly written on her face in the past, this time her voice was the same as usual, and even had a hint of lightness in it.
"If President Diris hadn't come, then Char, you would have whistled right now—"
"Then I said, "Xiao Ai, you really understand me. Today I'm wearing a pair of ponytails, pajamas and black stockings. I like it~"
“…”
Xia sighed: "But you seem quite happy?"
“It’s a bit happy indeed.”
Airola held the couple's coffee cup with Char and looked at the prints on the coffee. "After all, President Diris has been alone with you in the same room for a whole night, and nothing happened."
"If something really happened, then you, Xia, should still be lying in bed pretending to be asleep, and you would never dare to come downstairs to see me."
"This means that President Diris shouldn't pose much of a threat to me. My previous vigilance was an overreaction."
Char sighed again.
It turns out that when someone in the acquaintance bureau has a good grasp of your database, then things like identifying your identity are a piece of cake.
"Diris came here because of the Second Princess' intention. She wanted to recruit me to join her camp."
"The second princess... Her Highness Isadella?"
"Yes." Xia did not hide it: "I made a deal with her. In exchange for becoming the Sword Master and supporting her in the King's Selection Ceremony, I got some support in terms of resources."
Aurora fell silent for a moment.
After a long while, she spoke again: "You have something important to do soon. Are you preparing for it?"
Otherwise, based on Airola's understanding of Char, he would not choose to make such a deal.
"That's about right."
"That thing, or that battle, I can't participate in it?"
Char nodded.
The blonde girl didn't ask any more questions.
But the previous joy on Airola's fair and pretty face disappeared, and she looked gloomy again.
His unhappiness was written all over his face.
She is the sharpest sword and the hardest shield beside Char.
But now Char is about to face a severe challenge, and he is completely unable to intervene and can only stand by and watch.
This was totally unacceptable to Airola.
