“…”
“Ye Lu.”
“What’s that sound?”
On the top bunk, Keke noticed the movement and leaned over the edge to look down.
She undoubtedly caught sight of the little succubus Ye Lu, who looked like she had done something bad, wrapped tightly in her blanket, her tail swaying guiltily.
“N-Nothing… it’s… um, the alarm clock went off under the covers, right? But this sound… it feels kind of familiar to me?”
Ye Lu closed her eyes in despair, only able to press down hard on the source of the sound.
Fumbling blindly for the off switch, her words came out nervously and stammeringly.
Buzz buzz buzz…
But the sound continued, only muffled now.
‘Who would have thought that thing made a noise? And so loud at that.’
Ye Lu sometimes couldn’t help but complain—every time, things happened so quietly.
“And the manufacturers—how do they make things? How can they sell such flawed products?”
“And… Xiaolu—was she also discovered because of this?”
“Oh no! This time of day!”
Keke suddenly panicked, quickly turning to the ladder of the top bunk, ready to jump down in one leap.
“Wh-“
“D-Don’t come down…”
Ye Lu timidly called out, then fell silent for a moment.
“Ah, what’s wrong…”
One of Keke’s bare legs was already poised in midair.
“It’s just… uh…”
‘Damn it… why can’t I find the off switch… what is this thing made of…’
“Ye Lu… there’s no time. That woman is very precise about timing… we’re doomed.”
“It’s all my fault, boohoo… I got lost in a manga and didn’t notice. It’s probably too late to clean up now.”
“Woman? Who are you talking about?”
“?”
“…”
Before the words faded, the doorknob was gently turned without warning.
Ye Lu’s demon body tensed. Unable to find the off button, she simply pressed it tightly under the covers, hoping that her secret activity wouldn’t be discovered.
Then, the door opened.
The person who stepped into the dormitory was a woman.
She had neatly combed long straight golden hair, and wore her JK uniform immaculately—not like Keke’s cool and bold miniskirt.
She ran her fingers through her hair, looked around the dormitory, and frowned in displeasure.
She held a notebook in both hands, appearing quite dignified.
But on her worried, cute face, those emerald eyes were extremely clear.
As for her race, Ye Lu could tell at a glance.
The pair of wings behind her, which fluttered slightly and shed fluorescent light, along with her pointed ears, said it all.
…A Skywing Elf.
The purest, most sacred—or rather, naive—race.
At this moment, Ye Lu looked at the two extra beds on the left, one of which had a pink, girly mattress, and she finally understood.
So that’s it—she’s my roommate.
…No.
This roommate seemed to be a truly natural girl, the kind who had kept little girlish secrets since childhood.
Thinking this, Ye Lu grew flustered. The fear of being exposed and hated resurfaced.
She watched every move of this cute Skywing Elf girl.
Hmm…
She’s coming over.
Towards me…
Her expression looks fierce… not good…
The Skywing Elf was merciless, her gaze sharp, and she snorted with a hint of superiority.
Ye Lu didn’t dare move, staring blankly at the girl in front of her.
As she approached, Ye Lu could naturally smell the floral scent from the other’s delicate body.
It was strange.
Logically speaking, this was the type that would make her blush and heart race just from a little contact.
So why was she so scared?
That’s right… she was going to be kicked out, mistaken for a man who broke into the girls’ dorm…
…
The air was very quiet.
“…”
“What is this!”
The elf girl grew angrier, pulling out the pink microphone that was still vibrating under Ye Lu’s covers and holding it up in the air conspicuously.
Under Ye Lu’s shocked expression—before she could react, then slightly reacting and wanting to snatch it back—
She wanted to die even more!
Please, just kick me out!
Buzzzz—
The sound echoed in the quiet room, undoubtedly heard by everyone.
Her expression was so calm, as if she hadn’t seen anything, then she wiped the moisture off the microphone in confusion.
She muttered: “What is this? So it’s not an alarm clock.”
“I told Keke not to bring an alarm clock—every morning it’s so noisy I can’t sleep.”
…
…
The elf girl looked down at the dumbfounded succubus Ye Lu, shook the thing in her hand, and handed it back.
“What is this?”
“A m… microphone.”
“It’s a microphone.”
“I’m keeping it for a friend. It’s for singing.”
“Okay, but no singing in the dorm.”
“Also, why is this microphone still moving? It’s vibrating so much my hand is almost numb, and it has a smell I hate—similar to the smell when Keke comes back. Anyway, it’s disgusting. Turn it off.”
“…”
“Mm-hmm.”
Ye Lu took it, listening as she spoke with hands on her hips.
“Wash it properly, or I’ll confiscate it. It’s making the dorm stink—this is where we all live.”
“Oh, right. You’re the new roommate?”
Ye Lu nodded obediently.
“…Hmm… why is it a succubus again?”
“You creatures aren’t very clean. You don’t sleep well at night, and then mess up the sheets the next day.”
…
…
Night fell.
This day was finally about to end.
Ye Lu lay in bed, her eyelids twitching, but she was reluctant to close her eyes.
The demands of her instinct had naturally weakened a bit.
Before sleep, that thing had been forcibly taken by the annoying elf girl and thrown into the storage box.
So even if she had it, she couldn’t do anything now.
And Keke…
At that time, seeing Keke’s expression when she saw her hidden toy exposed—shy yet with a relaxed look that said “I understand”…
…Forget it.
After collapsing like this, it’s just a bit of wind and frost.
Staring at the full moon…
Her eyelids grew heavier and heavier, until she couldn’t hold on…
“Hey, Ye Lu.”
“…I’m here, Xiya. What now…”
After getting along for a bit, Ye Lu had gotten used to it. After all, this girl was a bother…
Being called by name at this hour, she didn’t know what trouble was brewing, so she forced her eyes open.
“Did you not take a bath?”
“…No.”
Indeed, I didn’t.
“No bath, no sleep.”
?
“Why…”
“Keke already took a bath.”
“No, she didn’t.”
“Keke told me she took a bath in the afternoon.”
“She’s lying. I saw her with my own eyes—she really didn’t bathe.”
“Huh? Keke…?”
“Ugh…”
“Get out!”
