“Heh heh heh… How many steps does it take to eat Hailey? Step one: catch the cute little Hailey first.”
Idledra spoke as if to herself, yet she leaned in close to whisper directly into Hailey’s ear.
‘But I, Edhailey, am no pushover either!’
Hailey stubbornly pushed Idledra’s hand away and looked at her with more defiance than she had ever shown before.
‘No, who would just lie down and let themselves be manipulated like a doll? The tables have turned. Right now, I have the initiative.’
‘That’s right. My body is full of Mana and I’m bursting with energy. The one being suppressed can only be her… Cough, cough, I definitely wasn’t thinking about anything like that.’
“Heh heh, Idledra, look at that pitiful expression of yours. Now it’s your turn to—”
“Hmm, Hailey, what’s wrong?”
However, faced with Hailey’s smug and gloating little face, Idledra simply supported her hand gently, offering a calm and obedient smile.
It was as if she, being unable to see, was completely unaware of Hailey’s thoughts and was just sitting there blankly.
Hailey’s arrogant fire was instantly extinguished.
She lost all the excitement she had just felt, leaving her with nothing but shyness and a sense of being at a loss.
‘By any look of it, I should be the one finally counterattacking, right? Why does she look like the one being wronged now? Ugh, I can’t bring myself to do it…’
“Hailey, I feel like I can’t leave you. What should I do…?”
Idledra opened her arms toward her.
Hailey involuntarily reached out her hand, and then—
“Wait, hold on! Shouldn’t you be out of Mana and all limp? Shouldn’t I be the one playing with you as I please… Mmf!!”
‘This isn’t right. According to the script, shouldn’t her Mana be drained? Shouldn’t she be lying weakly on the bed with a humiliated look, just like I was before?’
However, she was easily pulled into Idledra’s embrace.
Sensing the aura of a conspiracy radiating from her, Hailey felt that things were taking a turn for the worse.
“But didn’t a certain someone already personally satisfy me with the Mana I lacked most?”
Gently hugging the Hailey in her arms, Idledra couldn’t help but reminisce about the memories of not too long ago.
It was the first time Hailey had been so proactive.
“Why don’t you help me remember, Hailey? I seem to have lost my memory again.”
Hailey remembered that day when she had forcibly hauled up a certain someone who was about to faint and was aggressive for the first time, only to be counter-killed in the end…
Just thinking of that scene made Hailey’s face turn red again.
Caught in a mix of shame and panic, she was completely unable to break free from Idledra’s grip.
“Step two: gently pat the cute Hailey to ensure her freshness and smoothness.”
With that, Idledra gently patted Hailey’s cheek.
It was soft, like a pillow stuffed with wool, and it had a nice bounce to it.
“It felt so good to touch.”
After wantonly ravaging Hailey’s face, Idledra still felt unsatisfied and gradually moved her hand below the shoulders.
‘Hmm, although I can’t see, this place is soft and looks particularly easy to squeeze… and there’s a small hole?’
“Don’t tickle my belly button! Pfft… hahahaha, it tickles! Stop it!”
‘How does this girl always find my weak spots so accurately? Pinching the soft meat on my stomach is one thing, but almost touching my belly button…’
Laughing until she was almost out of breath, Hailey slumped onto the bed.
Idledra, unable to see her, could only fumble across her body with her hands.
‘She’s definitely doing this on purpose. Taking advantage of the fact that she can’t see so I can’t scold her. So cunning!’
“Step three: quietly hide Hailey away, and then I’ll eat her all by myself…”
‘Oh no, I laughed too hard and now my thighs are numb. I can’t stand up. Is she really going to eat me up?’
Hailey slowly closed her eyes, waiting as Idledra’s heartbeat drew closer and closer, seemingly about to press against her.
‘I feel like we’re going to kiss in 1 minute. What should I do? Just bear with it and it’ll pass… No, I absolutely didn’t want that!’
“1 minute, 3 minutes, 5 minutes…”
Hailey felt that the scent was very close, yet it never actually touched her.
“Alright, meal finished. I’m hungry. Hailey, I want some snacks.”
“Huh? What?!”
Opening her eyes in disbelief, she saw Idledra simply poking her cheek before lazily and quietly admiring her expression that was both fearful and expectant.
‘Hmm, teasing Hailey every day is great. It’s a pity I can’t see her pouting little face; she must look like a little balloon…’
‘So my expression, my internal monologue, and my wild fantasies… it was all just my own imagination?! And she saw it all?!’
“You, you you you… I, I I I I…”
‘Ugh! I’m going to bury you in the covers and throw you out along with the blanket!’
“Whirrr”
Hailey’s head felt like a boiling kettle, and her entire being turned a deep, ripe red.
“You are just hopeless! Go to sleep right now!”
After saying that, Hailey yanked up the blanket and rolled Idledra up in it.
The other girl grumbled indignantly about her snacks.
Hailey turned around.
After all that tossing and turning, she felt quite exhausted.
“Yawn”…
Because of the “Late-night Game” they had to play from time to time, Hailey usually had no energy to run back to her own room after Idledra was satisfied.
Therefore, it was normal to have two sets of bedding prepared on the bed.
Hailey rolled up her blanket and went to sleep with her back to her.
“Hailey, my snacks… sweet snacks…”
Whether she was mumbling or talking in her sleep, Idledra’s dazed murmurs reached Hailey’s ears.
“Tomorrow. I’ll make them for you tomorrow.”
Perhaps wanting to test if the girl was faking sleep, Hailey subconsciously responded as if talking to herself.
‘I’ll prepare a portion for her tomorrow morning. I have some ingredients left from when we went shopping. It’s just a small wish; I’ll satisfy her…’
Remembering how even a piece of dry bread used to be a luxury for a certain someone, Hailey’s compassion began to act up again.
“Hehe, Hailey is the best…”
Idledra smiled sweetly and quietly hugged Hailey.
The sudden touch made Hailey let out a small yelp.
But looking at Idledra, who seemed to be fast asleep, Hailey’s face reddened slightly.
She turned her head back and closed her eyes, thinking it must have been a mistake.
“Small cakes made by Hailey… Hailey’s muffins and pudding… Hailey, Hailey is the most delicious…”
‘Since someone likes my cooking so much, I’ll forgive you just for today. Goodnight. “Yawn”…’
Idledra opened her eyes and gently pulled the sleeping girl closer, turning that silly face toward her.
Only then did she close her eyes again with satisfaction.
“Goodnight, my Hailey.”
