Yue Wange could feel how severe the disorder in Xiaoxi’s magic circuits was.
While secretly using “Judgment” to suppress the wild magic in Xiaoxi’s body, she spoke in a low voice.
“Miss Xinglan, we need to find a way to expel most of her magic power first!”
Xiaoxi was already stronger than most S-Class Magic Girls. The magic power reserves in her body were abnormal.
Leaving aside the issue of Star Eclipse, if the Mana Overrun were left unchecked, just the sheer volume of magic power could cause Xiaoxi’s body to explode!
But Xiaoxi had already fainted now, and couldn’t possibly expel the rampaging magic power in her body on her own.
Song of Parting’s forehead broke out in cold sweat—she was already reaching her limit at suppressing it… Was this the magic of [Eternal Star]?
Song of Parting felt that her “Discipline” was like a thin, frail leash, unable to hold back Xiaoxi, a wild horse about to break free!
‘Just need to find a way to help A Xing expel the excess magic from her body, right?’
Night Xinglan was stunned. If that was the case… then she could do it!
Now only she could do it. As the Blood Moon Witch, she could absorb magic from Xiaoxi.
She and Xiaoxi had done this “magic replenishment” countless times!
Night Xinglan knelt on the ground, looking at the person lying in her arms, eyes tightly shut, brows furrowed… [Eternal Star].
Yes, of course she knew the person in her arms was Xiaoxi, her girlfriend.
But this was the first time she had seen Xiaoxi in this state, and also the first time she had voluntarily had such close contact with that bastard [Eternal Star].
Night Xinglan suddenly paused—ah, so that’s how it was?
She suddenly remembered that time in Summersea City, when after fighting the Third Divine Envoy, her magic had run out and she almost went berserk.
It was Eternal Star who arrived in time and replenished her magic.
She had always held a grudge over that, thinking that bastard Eternal Star did it just to disgust her.
So she had been nursing that resentment, planning to get revenge one day… That was how it was supposed to be.
Night Xinglan looked at Xiaoxi’s familiar yet unfamiliar face in her arms.
It was like a replay of that time in Summersea City, but last time she had been unwillingly kissed forcefully by that bastard Eternal Star. This time, however—
Night Xinglan gently leaned down, actively and tenderly entwining her lips with Xiaoxi’s.
The bullet comments in the livestream exploded like a nuclear bomb. Looking at them, all that could be seen were rapidly scrolling question marks.
“Holy crap, I wasn’t even spacing out, what the heck is this?”
“Is Eternal Star okay? What’s suddenly happening?”
“No, this really isn’t fake, is it? How could I ever see the day when Blood Moon Witch and Eternal Star kiss?!”
“??? I’m not hallucinating, right? You saw it too, right? I’m not seeing things, right?!”
At this moment, in Mo Lan’er’s office in Summersea City.
The large projection screen in the office was still showing the live footage of Night Xinglan and Xiaoxi kissing.
With a clang, Mo Lan’er, who had been contacting the Association’s higher-ups, dazedly let go of the phone in her hand, letting it fall to the ground.
“Aaaaaaaaaaah!!!”
After a few seconds of silence, a series of sharp shrieks suddenly erupted in the office.
“Book me the next flight to North Blossom City! Right now, immediately, ASAP!”
On the other end of the internal line, Mo Lan’er’s personal secretary had to hold the receiver away from her ear to avoid having her eardrums shattered by Mo Lan’er’s voice.
But what’s suddenly wrong with President Mo? This was the first time the secretary had seen Mo Lan’er so flustered.
Normally, no matter what big issue came up, President Mo would handle it calmly.
With a bang, the door to the president’s office was flung open heavily.
Mo Lan’er’s magic power surged uncontrollably; she was already on the verge of going berserk.
She was still immersed in the shock of her own young lady being defiled by that pervert Eternal Star, but then her thoughts took a sharp turn—
‘Wait, no. Mo Lan’er knew very well what her young lady’s character was like. Didn’t the young lady already have Xiaoxi as a girlfriend? There’s no way she would do something like this with someone else! And the target is that Eternal Star, unless…’
Mo Lan’er sucked in a sharp breath and slapped her own philtrum again.
‘…No way? Could it really be such a coincidence? The young lady had asked her to search for [Eternal Star]’s whereabouts for so long. It can’t be… that Eternal Star has actually been by the young lady’s side all along?! Gah, no way! Originally, Mo Lan’er had already accepted Xiaoxi as her young lady’s little girlfriend, but now she suddenly felt it was ruined. If she had known earlier, when the Association came knocking, she would never have let the young lady hide out at Xiaoxi’s place no matter what! Now her own cabbage really had been rooted by a pig!!!’
At the entrance of the livehouse in North Blossom City, Da Tianxin first let out a “woohoo,” jumping up and down excitedly, but quickly grew anxious.
‘Wait a minute. Even though she loves shipping Eternal Star × Blood Moon Witch, since Xinglan is the Blood Moon Witch, doesn’t she already have Xiaoxi as a girlfriend?! Even though Da Tianxin knew Xiaoxi had a good temper, she can’t do this, Xinglan! Even Xiaoxi would be sad! You have to consider your girlfriend’s feelings!’
But soon Da Tianxin had another thought… No, as a friend, she knew very well that Xinglan was definitely not that kind of casual girl. She would never betray Xiaoxi. That meant…
“Wow~!”
Da Tianxin stood there dumbfounded, suddenly realizing something—the CP she shipped seemed to have come true, huh?
But Qingluan’s expression on the other side wasn’t so pretty. She too had realized the same problem.
Now that it was known Night Xinglan was the Blood Moon Witch, and Xiaoxi was Night Xinglan’s girlfriend, and now Night Xinglan was kissing Eternal Star, then it could be deduced…
Right, actually thinking about it this way made sense. How could the Blood Moon Witch, such a powerful figure, date an unknown B-Rank Magical Girl? But if Xiaoxi was [Eternal Star], then it all made sense!
Qingluan’s face instantly turned pale. If earlier she had been flustered by the fact that Night Xinglan was the Blood Moon Witch, now she was left with only regret, deep regret.
Qingluan recalled her previous attitude toward Xiaoxi, the things she had said to Xiaoxi inside the venue just now… She had actually acted as a scalper in front of [Eternal Star] herself, and even said things like “You’re not Eternal Star, why do you care so much?” Not to mention everything before that…
‘It’s over. I’m done for.’
At this moment, Qingluan realized she seemed to have provoked someone she shouldn’t have.
At the entrance of the Tower of Commandments, the Astrologer had also lost her previous calm composure.
After instructing Xiao Keke to stay put and not move, she entered the Tower of Commandments despite the Archbishop’s attempts to stop her, leaving Xiao Keke alone outside staring at the livestream in anxious desperation.
Xiao Keke was worried for Senior Eternal Star on one hand, but also very confused.
She couldn’t understand why Sister Xinglan would suddenly forcefully kiss Senior Eternal Star… Isn’t this cheating on my big sister?!
‘Wait, no? The problem is, isn’t Sister Xinglan the Blood Moon Witch? From the very beginning, Xiao Keke knew how much Sister Xinglan hated Senior Eternal Star. Why would she do something like this? Unless…’
With a slap, Xiao Keke covered her burning cheeks.
‘No way? Could my own big sister be… Senior Eternal Star?’
Xiao Keke suddenly stood up, feeling as if she had been struck by sudden enlightenment. All the inexplicable doubts about her big sister made sense at this moment.
But Xiao Keke just stood there dumbfounded, her face reddening, until a small mushroom cloud exploded above her head with a bang. Only then did she slowly sit back down.
At this moment, the magic storm caused by Xiaoxi’s out-of-control magic circuit had swept through the entire Tower of Commandments.
The “eyes” that the Archbishop had set up naturally couldn’t withstand such a magic storm. So with a crackle, the livestream immediately went offline, the screen completely gone.
Night Xinglan didn’t move. The kiss was deep and long.
Only when she felt the breath of the person in her arms gradually stabilize did she part her teeth, release Xiaoxi’s thin lips, and gasp for air in small breaths.
Looking at [Eternal Star] nestled in her arms, a thought emerged from the depths of Night Xinglan’s heart, like a natural instinct or a devil’s whisper.
Yes, wasn’t her long-standing wish to take revenge on [Eternal Star]? And now, Eternal Star was lying softly in her arms, without any guard, without any possibility of resistance—wasn’t this the perfect opportunity to fulfill her wish?
‘Ha, idiot… How could I possibly do something like that.’
This thought only flashed through Night Xinglan’s mind for a moment before being extinguished and suppressed.
What should have been an instinct deeply etched into her heart now passed through her mind like a gentle breeze, disappearing without a trace.
Night Xinglan took Xiaoxi’s hand, interlacing their fingers. Although their appearances were different, the temperature from the palm, the touch of the palm lines were all so familiar.
This was the hand she had held countless times. The person before her was indeed her little girlfriend, Xiaoxi.
The Astrologer and the Silverflame Dragon Princess had already hurried over, but Night Xinglan showed no intention of letting go of the person in her arms.
Instead, she raised Xiaoxi’s hand and held it together with her own—
“Idiot, if you had just told me such a simple reason earlier, would you have needed to hide it from me for so long?”
“…I like you too, Xiaoxi.”
Their fingers gently intertwined, pinkies linked together. The lines on their nail polish, one left, one right, one half each, formed a small heart pattern.
