“N-Nicole… you’re too close… We’re still just kids, please…”
Nicole not only refused to back away, but instead buried her head deeper into Su Ruanruan’s exposed neck.
She took a deep breath of Su Ruanruan’s unique body scent and even opened her mouth, gently grinding her teeth against her collarbone.
“What’s wrong with that? Calling me ‘big sis’ feels too distant. We’re in the same grade, after all. Since little kids aren’t allowed to do this, how about I teach you some things only adults can do?”
Feeling the petite body in her arms trembling, Nicole felt like her bones were melting.
“I… I changed my mind! I don’t want the money anymore!”
Su Ruanruan sniffled hard, forcing out a smile that looked worse than crying.
She pushed Nicole’s shoulders away and desperately grabbed at the door.
But Nicole had one foot braced against it.
No matter how hard Su Ruanruan pushed, the door didn’t budge.
Nicole stood behind her, tilting her head.
Her gaze coiled around Su Ruanruan’s tense waistline like a venomous snake as she spoke in a teasing tone.
“Hmm? Do you know why I brought you to this old school building instead of bullying you in the classroom?”
“W-Wasn’t it because it’s more convenient to talk…?”
Su Ruanruan pressed her back tightly against the door, tears falling like broken beads.
“No, Ruanruan. You really don’t understand at all.”
Nicole suddenly leaned in and used her index finger to forcefully wipe away a drop of hot tear from Su Ruanruan’s cheek.
Then, right in front of her, she put that finger into her own mouth and sucked on it slowly.
“Salty… but I like it.”
Is this person going to beat me up like she’s fighting an adult Witch?
“No… don’t—!”
The moment the thought crossed her mind, Su Ruanruan’s face turned deathly pale.
She desperately squeezed out what little magic power she had left in her body.
Boom!
A weak burst of air exploded outward.
Caught completely off guard, Nicole was actually knocked back by this first-tier Witch.
The old door lock shattered with a crack.
Su Ruanruan clutched her torn collar and stumbled out of the bathroom.
But Su Ruanruan’s magic power was far too little.
The backlash from overusing it hit her immediately, and on top of that, she wasn’t wearing a shoe on her right foot.
Her legs gave out and she fell heavily onto the cold concrete floor of the corridor.
Her fair knees instantly scraped open, leaving a large, glaring patch of blood.
Nicole, who had been knocked over, was also stunned for a moment.
When she rushed out into the corridor, she saw Su Ruanruan lying on the ground, groaning in pain.
“For a mere trash fish like you, you’ve got quite some guts, huh?!”
Like an enraged leopard, she pounced forward and straddled Su Ruanruan’s thin waist without any courtesy.
“Ugh!” Su Ruanruan cried out in pain from the pressure.
Nicole excitedly used her two slender, fair legs to clamp tightly around the soft waist beneath her.
As expected, prey is only fun when it struggles.
She angrily tore off her obstructive jacket and threw it aside, then grabbed Su Ruanruan’s collar and roughly flipped her over.
Both hands viciously clamped around her fragile neck.
“I’m sorry… cough… please let me go…”
With her throat being strangled, Su Ruanruan instinctively cried and begged, her red eyes filled with despair.
Watching her prey in such a miserable state, Nicole’s mind spun with excitement.
Her thighs unconsciously spasmed and tightened—
(Scene omitted)
Nicole froze for a second.
This was…
But soon, the shock on her face transformed into even deeper, darker desire.
It didn’t matter.
In fact, this was even better. Now Su Ruanruan’s body would be completely stained with her scent.
“Ruanruan, do you want to try my ‘water magic’?”
She panted heavily, her eyes sinking into a sick, frenzied state.
Right in front of Su Ruanruan, she pulled her lace panties down to her knees.
Then she straightened up, wearing a terrifying smile, and slowly pressed down toward her…
At that critical moment—
Boom—!
A blazing fireball tore through the air, grazing past Nicole’s scalp and slamming heavily into the wall beside them.
The flames instantly lit up the dark corridor.
“Let her go!! Don’t you dare bully Ruanruan!”
“Who?! Do you even know who I am?!”
Her fun interrupted, Nicole let out an angry shriek.
She scrambled up in a panic, haphazardly fixed her skirt, and charged toward the end of the corridor with a face full of rage.
Sharp curses mixed with flashes of magic as the two girls fiercely clashed in the corridor.
Su Ruanruan, lying on the ground, gasped for breath.
Her chest burned painfully.
She tried to lift her head, wanting to see the girl who had saved her.
But… it was strange.
No matter how hard she blinked, the girl’s face looked like it was covered by a thick layer of frosted glass.
She couldn’t see it clearly at all.
She could only vaguely make out that it was a little girl with messy black hair.
Not only that, Su Ruanruan noticed her body was becoming lighter.
The coldness on her back, the pain in her neck, the explosions from the magic battle… everything felt like it was separated by a layer of water, growing more muffled and distant.
It was as if her consciousness was being forcibly pulled out of this body by an invisible hand.
Who was that…?
With one final burst of bright light, the old school building in front of her, the two fighting girls…
The entire world shattered like a mirror struck by a hammer.
Cracks spread across it before it collapsed into dust with a loud boom.
—Reality.
Crack.
It sounded like something had broken.
The yellow paper charm stuck to Su Ruanruan’s smooth forehead suddenly glowed with a soft light.
An invisible black contract chain was forcibly torn out from inside her body and dissipated into black smoke.
Su Ruanruan, who had been lying there with her eyes rolled back, suddenly rolled her eyeballs back into place.
A single crystal-clear tear spilled from the corner of her eye and silently slid down her pale, translucent little face.
She slightly parted her lips and, as if murmuring in a dream, whispered a name.
“Kanzaki…”
