Question: If you’re a student who has been struggling for five years preparing for the academy exam, but by some twist of fate you get embraced by a hateful Blood Demon woman, and you plan to show her who’s boss when you wake up— only to open your eyes and find that hateful woman has turned into an even more hateful woman, what do you do?
It really was a question worth pondering. Sevi—no, Sevitis—began to think seriously.
First, let’s not dwell on where that vampire went. The most critical issue now was—why was she here?
“Oh my, sorry, did I wake you?”
Falling strands of golden hair brushed lightly against Sevitis’s nose, bringing a faint, delicate fragrance.
Only then did Sevitis suddenly realize just how terrible their current position was.
No, it was shameful.
At this moment, almost half her body was leaning into the other’s embrace.
Her hands were awkwardly suspended in the air like cat paws, and if she moved just a little closer, the sharp fangs at the corners of her mouth could directly touch the other’s slender, fair neck.
But the golden-haired girl not only didn’t pull away—she tilted her head slightly and explained with a smile:
“I saw you sleeping quietly here, so I just put you on my lap.”
“I didn’t expect you to be sleeping so soundly. I only wanted to adjust your position, but I still ended up waking you.”
“…”
‘Forget that she’s here—why am I lying in her lap?!’
Sevitis snatched her hands back as if electrocuted, propping herself on the ground and immediately scooting backward.
Mm, the mud under her hands was indeed cold and slushy. So the softness she’d felt at the back of her head while unconscious was definitely not an illusion.
Sevitis even wondered if she was hallucinating, or still asleep, or if this was some “little surprise” left by that old monster to get back at her.
“This is the first time I’ve seen a real white-haired loli. Now that you’re awake, can I touch your head?”
But the cold night wind hitting her face, the unique scent of the girl, and the hand that landed on top of her head—warm to the touch and without permission—all mercilessly reminded her: This was not a dream.
‘Such an absurd scene is reality? Not only is the probability of this Saint Candidate showing up here extremely low, but she also happened to appear right after I got embraced? Is this really just a coincidence, or is someone deliberately messing with me?’
The white-haired girl’s delicate brows furrowed slightly. But now wasn’t the time to ask heaven if it had thrown another huge curveball at her. The urgent matter was—what to do?
A: Take the opportunity and bite down hard, letting this bad woman know that you don’t touch a tiger’s backside, and even more so, you don’t touch a monster’s head.
B: Stand up and run away without looking back, betting she can’t catch up—every extra second with this bad woman is torture.
C: Close your eyes and think about life. Maybe all of this is a dream. When you open your eyes again, the bad woman will disappear.
And Sevitis’s choice was— AAACB.
‘Don’t ask why I chose A three times in a row. It’s definitely not because I wanted to bite that hand that kept rubbing my head, but because she dodged lightly every time.’
It was because she suddenly realized that the other had blurted out a word that absolutely shouldn’t appear here.
White-haired loli?
Where was the white hair? Where was the loli?
Sevitis looked around in confusion. As she moved, strands of white hair swayed before her eyes.
‘Oh, the white hair is right here.’
‘Then where’s the loli? Besides me, there’s only a puddle of blood mixed with mud and this scheming blonde. I don’t see any loli— not even a ghost.’
“Judging by your appearance, you must be from the Demon Race. What’s your name? How did you end up here? Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Yulalia Olive. I’m a human, by the way.”
‘I know. Shut up.’ Rather than listen to her ramble on, Sevitis wanted to know where the “loli” the other had mentioned was. So she chose to ignore her.
But before she could find it, the golden-haired girl seemed a bit dissatisfied with being ignored.
Suddenly, Sevitis felt her head being forced down by the other’s hands, turning her face to meet her gaze.
Under the moonlight, the white-haired and golden-haired girls were pressed together in an extremely ambiguous pose— so close that their noses almost touched, crimson eyes meeting clear cerulean.
“Honestly, when someone’s talking to you, don’t look around. Listen properly, okay?”
Sevitis had no time to think about why this girl was so strong, because she had finally found the “loli” the other had mentioned.
Through those clear, ocean-like blue eyes, Sevitis saw a reflection—a white-haired, red-eyed loli.
Although her cheeks were slightly squished by those hands, she could still make out a “doll” so delicate it didn’t seem alive.
She wore an ornate dark gothic battle dress.
And behind her, a pair of pitch-black bat wings slowly unfurled, blocking half the full moon.
Sevitis blinked instinctively, her gaze quickly scanning the “doll’s” features:
Silver-white hair like snow, eyelashes like a little elf, features so exquisite they seemed unreal, and that petite frame that looked like it definitely didn’t exceed 150 centimeters…
‘What… so the white-haired loli is here. I almost thought she was talking about me. Hahahaha.’
But as she laughed, Sevitis couldn’t laugh anymore.
Because no matter how much she tried to deceive herself, she couldn’t change one fact: she was the white-haired loli in the other’s eyes.
Sevitis slowly closed her eyes.
‘Maybe I really am still dreaming. If I count down from three and open my eyes, the bad woman will disappear, and me turning into a white-haired loli will also disappear.’
‘Yeah. That’s right.’
‘Three, two, one… now!’
Sevitis opened her eyes. The squeezing sensation on her cheeks hadn’t disappeared.
The bad woman in front of her hadn’t disappeared either—she was even looking at her with a slightly worried expression.
“Oh, I get it. Can you not understand what I’m saying?” Yulalia suddenly realized, and started gesturing wildly, trying to make herself understood.
‘I can understand! Stop gesticulating at me! I really will bite you, you know!’
“You can’t even talk, can you? How about you follow my mouth? Come on, big~ sis~” Yulalia blinked, pointing at herself with an expectant expression, trying to get the girl to say her first word since birth.
‘I really will bite you to death!’
Sevitis felt she would die of anger at this rate.
It wasn’t that she didn’t want to speak— it was that she was afraid that once she opened her mouth, the evidence would be bloody and irrefutable.
‘Deep breath.’ From what she knew of Yulalia, this girl was definitely doing it on purpose. She must not get tangled up.
The urgent matter now was to decide what to do next. Should she ignore her and run, or settle all grievances here and now?
Even if she might have become a white-haired loli now, Sevitis could never forget what this girl had done to her.
She had worked so hard precisely to win that bet and repay all the humiliation from back then.
But Sevitis quickly gave up on that idea. Now wasn’t the time to clash head-on with her.
It was better to lie low for now, sort out her own situation, and then win the bet fair and square.
‘Provided I still have the chance.’
Having made up her mind, Sevitis’s tense little face gradually relaxed, even showing a hint of perfectly timed blush. Her crimson eyes seemed to shyly dodge, and her hands pressed lightly into the mud.
The white-haired girl took a deep breath, as if she had made up her mind, and timidly uttered the first word since waking up:
“Bi…”
“Oh! Great job! That’s the feeling!”
Seeing that the loli girl actually followed her lead, Yulalia’s eyes sparkled, and her smile grew even more radiant.
But because the girl’s voice was too soft, she unconsciously leaned in closer.
At that moment, the shy evasion in the white-haired girl’s eyes vanished without a trace, her gaze turning razor-sharp.
“Take this!”
Sevitis hurled the mud she had secretly grabbed right at Yulalia’s face. At such close range, even if the other reacted, she wouldn’t be able to dodge.
But just as the mud was about to smear Yulalia’s delicate face, a golden barrier appeared out of nowhere, stopping the mud less than a finger’s width from her nose.
‘Tch. Failed.’ Sevitis clicked her tongue inwardly.
She’d hoped to gross out this scheming woman a bit, vent some of her pent-up frustration.
What a shame. But it didn’t matter—as long as her real goal was achieved.
Taking advantage of the mud blocking Yulalia’s view, giving her no time to react, Sevitis flapped her new bat wings vigorously and flew into the depths of the forest without looking back.
Perhaps because she wasn’t used to the wings yet, her flying posture was a bit ridiculous, even snapping several branches along the way.
Sevitis glanced back. Thankfully, Yulalia seemed stunned by the sudden turn of events, just keeping her original posture and staring blankly.
Sevitis breathed a slight sigh of relief. But slipping away like this was too humiliating.
How could she not collect some interest to make up for all the suffering over the years?
She had to find a way to annoy this scheming woman.
With the thought in her mind, the white-haired loli in midair subconsciously acted on it.
She turned her head and made a provocative face at Yulalia below, sticking out her pink tongue:
“Small fry~”
