However, as an old anime fan, Lilith still really liked the “tsundere” trope.
After all, the transformation from arrogant to sweet genuinely offered a unique thrill!
But these days, many tsundere characters have become synonymous with “defeated dogs”… their appeal completely pales in comparison to those who are direct.
For example, a certain blonde twin-tailed female artist…
Watching a tsundere “defeated dog” break down seemed to have become a twisted pleasure.
Because the tsundere missed their chance, they could only listen through the wall as their beloved and another woman gasped next door, then secretly shed tears in private.
It was absolutely delicious!
Lilith suddenly felt that Selunia had the potential to contend for the title of “defeated heroine.”
No! Wasn’t Selunia already a defeated character?!
The gentle older sister she loved had actually always loved another woman!
And the affection she received from the older sister… was actually the older sister’s love for someone else, projected onto herself.
“Substitute meal” literature!
Of course, the actual situation was certainly not like that.
After all, Veil’s feelings for Nia weren’t a substitute, and Nia’s feelings for Veil were more… simply admiration and worship for the one who raised her.
Only the fact that she was a pervert was true.
Lilith’s unreliable mind was as abstract as ever, filled with improper thoughts.
But only this way could she fantasize about twisted scenarios to entertain herself.
This kind of fun-seeking mental activity was part of her daily routine.
It allowed her, even when abandoned in the wilderness, to find small pleasures from her surroundings.
After all, at her age, if she couldn’t find more ways to satisfy herself, she’d probably be in a wheelchair by now.
Otto!!
And conveniently, all the random stuff crammed into her brain in her previous life was quite entertaining.
Hehe…
“…”
Selunia always felt there was ill intent in Lilith’s gaze, but she couldn’t be sure, so she just continued to ignore her.
The two of them, one after the other, arrived in front of the room with Selunia’s nameplate.
The second floor had four rooms and a washroom, but only two rooms were habitable; the others were filled with miscellaneous items… the first floor was the same.
It was said that this small house, sandwiched between the church and the academy, used to be a storage area.
Later, because of semi-human students like Selunia enrolling, it was renovated… but even so, it still seemed a bit old.
The seminary had never accepted semi-human students before, orphanages and other welfare facilities were a different story.
But most abandoned children were usually raised until they were sixteen and then sent out to fend for themselves in society, or they joined the church as low-ranking clergy.
If there were outstanding students who wanted to further their education, the church would mostly recommend these children to other colleges in Florenca, with the church providing significant subsidies for tuition and fees.
As for those who passed the entrance exam for their own seminary… they were few and far between…
Because the seminary’s admission score was quite high…
The seminary had entrance exams for the junior section (age twelve) and the senior section (age fifteen).
Those admitted were without exception one in a thousand geniuses; the exam content was exactly the same for commoners and nobles, and there were also one-on-one interviews with each department head for the candidates.
So, transfer students like Lilith were practically non-existent.
It seemed the last legendary transfer student was Her Royal Highness the Saintess ten years ago, who directly entered the senior section.
It was probably due to Her Royal Highness the Saintess’s efforts over the years to allocate educational resources that children from welfare homes now also had the opportunity to get into the seminary.
However, for semi-humans like Selunia, who were not well-accepted by ordinary students and posed a certain danger… it was estimated that the Saintess also made many compromises to allow them to attend classes at the seminary.
After all, even the Saintess could not ignore the opinions of the vast majority of students and make semi-humans like Selunia, who were considered quite dangerous in the eyes of students, live in the same dorm as them.
Thinking about it this way, those girls from the “Big Three” could actually be considered highly talented students!
Lilith couldn’t tell at all!
But this place was also good; it avoided many unnecessary stares.
Although Lilith liked the feeling of being with girls, she also didn’t want to be viewed like a rare animal in a zoo…
Given the enthusiasm of the girls at the academy, Lilith had no doubt that if she moved into a regular dorm… her door would surely be pounded by various girls at night.
“This is your room? Hmm… it really does suit your personality, doesn’t it…”
Selunia’s room… like her personality, was meticulous, without the slightest hint of girlish charm.
A neat desk, perfectly arranged bedding.
The entire room was spotlessly clean…
It could only be described as simple and unadorned…
However, there was a clearly plush toy, seemingly showcasing Her Royal Highness the Saintess’s girlish heart, neatly placed on the bedside.
The room was not large; the newly moved old wooden bed was a short distance from Selunia’s bed, making the already cramped space even more crowded.
But the previous owner of this room’s slightly unique girlish scent still lingered in the air, refreshing like morning dew.
But soon, it would be imbued with Lilith’s scent!
“By the way, where’s my wardrobe? My mattress and sheets?”
Lilith tilted her head.
“You have such amazing storage magic, why are your things crammed in with mine?”
Selunia patted the old wooden bed, which she had just wiped down but was still slightly dusty from being stored in the old warehouse for too long.
She gave Lilith an exasperated look.
This vampire certainly had high demands.
“The environment here is just like this… a bit poor…”
“New students need to buy some things themselves. Don’t tell me you didn’t buy a quilt and a change of clothes…”
“Sigh… The sun has completely set by now. Although you’re probably not afraid of the dark, going out now will get you caught and warned by the night patrol nuns… If you really don’t have anything, I’ll lend you my old quilt for tonight… There should still be unopened toiletries in the warehouse…”
“Oh, that’s not necessary. I’ve prepared my things.” Lilith was just grumbling; she didn’t genuinely think the environment was that bad.
She had camped out in the wilderness before and wasn’t that delicate.
“Then you can unpack first… I’m going to take a bath.”
Selunia picked up her pre-prepared toiletries, then deeply glanced at Lilith, who seemed eager and ready to follow her to the communal bathroom.
“You… are not allowed to barge in when I’m bathing! And I won’t bathe with you!”
“If you want to wash up, go to the bathroom downstairs! There are only two washrooms here, one upstairs and one downstairs!”
“Tsk… What are you imagining now? What makes you think I want to bathe with you?” Lilith’s little scheme was exposed, and she felt a bit embarrassed, so she turned her head away, avoiding Selunia’s gaze.
“And… you’re not allowed to barge in when other people are bathing either! Otherwise… I’ll tell Sister Veil!”
Selunia thought for a long time but couldn’t come up with anything to threaten Lilith.
In the end, she could only resort to mentioning Her Royal Highness the Saintess, hoping to deter Lilith’s restless mind.
It worked by accident… Lilith actually flinched a little.
Although she wasn’t afraid of Her Royal Highness the Saintess, if Veil came back later, arguing with her would be genuinely annoying…
She’d spend all day nagging in her ear, saying things like, “I just asked you to look after these children, not to take them to bed,” all those jealous remarks.
Just thinking about it made her uncomfortable…
If it really came to that, she’d just have to sit on Veil’s face to shut her up.
Besides, she wasn’t some true beast.
While she was quite lecherous and liked to take advantage, could rubbing and cuddling with girls and bathing together really be considered taking advantage?
Could it? Could it?
She had no intention of luring every beautiful girl into her bed for XXOO! As a beautiful girl herself, couldn’t she just enjoy some innocent closeness with other beautiful girls?
How strict.
“Alright, I get it… Go take your bath quickly, narcissist! Who wants to bathe with you anyway?!”
“…That’s best…”
Selunia looked back three times, and only after confirming that Lilith had started making her bed did she firmly close the door with a bang.
Hmm… living with Lilith from now on, she needed to be extra careful about her actions!
She’d set up a simple barrier by her bed tonight, otherwise, Selunia was afraid Lilith would crawl into her bed in the middle of the night…
It was quite scary…
Although the barrier definitely wouldn’t stop Lilith… it would at least bring her some peace of mind…
Seeing Selunia, the cautious little girl, leave, Lilith’s previously relaxed and carefree expression immediately turned serious.
She didn’t immediately make her bed.
Instead, she slowly slipped out of her nun’s habit, revealing her skin as fair as the silver moon that had appeared outside the window at some point.
Tiny points of starlight slanted down from above her small, delicate chest, and a translucent gauze dress hung down.
The indoor light shone through the gauze dress, outlining Lilith’s slightly hazy curves beneath it.
Barefoot, she slowly walked to the window and opened the tightly closed pane.
Then she took out a handkerchief and waved it at two figures peeking out from the woods behind the cottage, outside the window.
“Two Sister Nuns~ Still on duty so late~ You must be tired~ Why don’t you come up and play a game with me~ My technique is excellent, I’m sure I can help the sisters relax~”
Lilith, smiling coquettishly at this moment, looked just like one of those girls soliciting customers in the pleasure district, leaving onlookers dumbfounded.
The two nuns outside, who had been constantly observing the small house, were precisely the ones sent by Inquisitor Mabel earlier, tasked with keeping an eye on Lilith.
Lilith had discovered their presence that very morning, and even while teasing Selunia, she had shaken them off several times…
She hadn’t expected them to follow her home.
However, Lilith also understood that some in the church would certainly be uneasy about her.
If they didn’t send anyone to watch over a dangerous existence like her, Lilith would start to suspect if the Eastern Church was entirely made up of fools.
But that didn’t stop Lilith from teasing these nun sisters who had been constantly peeping at her.
The surveillance nuns from the Inquisition, seeing the white-haired girl poking half her body out the window and waving at them, were momentarily stunned.
However, after a brief moment of surprise, these two well-trained nuns immediately re-hid themselves in the woods, seemingly planning to find a spot where Lilith couldn’t see them to continue their surveillance.
And just as they were changing positions, a small black bat, hidden in the night, swiftly crossed the boundary of the monastery protected by a divine barrier.
The divine barrier, which should have been extremely sensitive to abnormal fluctuations, seemed to have ignored the tiny magical creature, with no warning even sounding.
The small black bat, unnoticed by anyone, landed on Lilith’s fair, smooth shoulder.
The magical creature, differentiated by Lilith, rapidly dissolved, turning into a puddle of blood that merged into Lilith’s body.
“Hmm… as expected…”
Feeling the sudden influx of information in her mind, red light flickered in Lilith’s eyes, then she sighed softly.
Just like this…
She couldn’t find anything.
