Chapter 372 : Chapter 372

Chapter 372: Confession

Late at night, the bright moonlight was blocked by opaque curtains, making it seem as if the entire bedroom was enveloped in a Soundproof Spell.

Outside the bedroom, several sneaky figures gathered in the hallway.

"Sigh Did you hear anything? Any movement?"

"No sound, hey."

"Quiet down, don't let them hear you."

"It seems useless. The bedroom seems to have a Soundproof Spell too..."

"What? Ugh, what a waste of my time..."

"Disperse, disperse, the show's over."

"Big Sis Bai really set up a Soundproof Spell? Are they playing things so wildly in there?"

"Right, what decent person puts a Soundproof Spell in their bedroom to sleep? Do you use one?"

"I don't."

"How about you?"

"To be honest, I don't even have a Soundproof Spell... haha."

"Do you think we should suddenly go in and catch them in the act?"

"If you have two lives, you can try."

"Yeah Then we sisters will remember the contribution you made with your sacrifice."

At this point, they exchanged a few more words before finally dispersing to their respective bedrooms, feeling bored.

Inside Bai Yu's bedroom.

Two beautiful figures lay intertwined on a single bed.

A large blanket tightly enveloped the two figures, with only the uneven sound of their breathing serving as the sole melody.

I lay quietly on the left side, turned onto my side, my soft white hair scattered casually on the pillow, looking at the back in front of me.

In the pitch-black night, my eyes were filled only with disappointment.

I gently raised my hand and draped it over Big Sis Bai's waist, then my whole body followed, pressing against her.

Bai Yu felt a slight shift in the blanket, and then a hand gently crept up her waist.

A wave of goosebumps immediately rose, until two soft masses pressed against her back.

The figure embraced her like this in the night.

She could hear the breathing much clearer on her side, and the gentle waves of warm breath echoed by her ear.

"Little Han..."

Bai Yu called out softly.

"Mhm. Can't Big Sis Bai sleep?"

I hummed softly, then asked quietly, pretending not to know.

"Yes. How can I sleep when you're like this, Little Han?"

Bai Yu said with a wry smile.

"That means Big Sis Bai's heart is troubled, oh."

My hand tightened slightly, and my embrace of Big Sis Bai became even more intimate.

"If Big Sis Bai didn't have feelings for me... you wouldn't be sleepless because of this."

"Little Han, your words are getting very direct now..."

"Mhm. Since we're sleeping in the same bed, I think some things don't need to be so hidden. Don't you agree, Big Sis Bai?"

"..."

"Alright then... but it's Big Sis Bai's last night. Are you not even willing to face me while sleeping?"

Seeing that Big Sis Bai didn't speak, perhaps holding back, I spoke for myself.

"I... I'm afraid I won't be able to stop myself."

Finally, Bai Yu spoke her concern.

"Can't stop yourself? Why does Big Sis Bai need to stop? Or does Big Sis Bai think I'm not worthy of you anymore..."

"No, Little Han, you are and always will be the only important one in my heart."

"You are to me too. So... Big Sis Bai, what exactly is the barrier between us? Is it the pajamas?"

"..."

Bai Yu didn't know either.

Perhaps she had never truly faced her own heart, until she heard the sound of a zipper being undone behind her, which gave her a shock.

"It's not the pajamas, Little Han."

Bai Yu hurriedly turned to face me and grabbed my hand, zipping up the cat pajamas again.

"Hehe I know it's not the pajamas, but Big Sis Bai is finally willing to face me now."

I said with a smile.

Although it was deep night and even the moonlight was blocked by the curtains, in the darkness, I could clearly see Big Sis Bai's face.

Although the situation had turned into a face-to-face one, for some reason, I felt the atmosphere was not quite right.

It seemed only silence could describe the scene.

"Little Han, do you know what you're doing?"

After a long time, Big Sis Bai finally sighed, and then was the first to speak.

"I know. I'm playing with fire."

I chuckled softly and replied.

Then, I took the hand that Big Sis Bai had let fall after turning, and placed it back on her waist, my whole head seeming to nestle into her arms.

"Big Sis Bai is already a Transcendent Witch. Ten years of effort just so you wouldn't be bound by the world anymore. So... why is Big Sis Bai being bound by your own thoughts? Everything should have happened as naturally as water flowing into a channel... Yet I feel like I'm facing a block of wood, not Big Sis Bai."

"I'm sorry, Little Han. My mind is a mess right now. I don't know what to do..."

"Then follow your instinct. Can your body lie to you?"

"If I abandon thought and follow instinct, will I still be me?"

"Ugh..."

Hearing Big Sis Bai's words, I pouted in annoyance.

"What on earth are you thinking about, Big Sis Bai? Do you need me to hit you with a hammer to clear out all that dross so you can face me directly?"

Faced with my sudden outburst, Bai Yu was stunned.

She hadn't expected Little Han to have this side to her.

"Hmph hmph Since you want to contemplate life, then I'll give you a hand!"

At this moment, Big Sis Bai's foolishness almost made me laugh.

You want to talk to me about sensibility and bring this up?

Has your romantic intelligence not taken the high ground yet?

Do you want me to hit you with a Great Wisdom Enlightenment Spell?

To make you realize how foolish your hesitation is right now?

If you figure it out later, I might not be so proactive!

What a dummy... I clearly said I wouldn't be proactive again.

But when facing Big Sis Bai, those principles seemed to be like air...

Perhaps... Big Sis Bai was even more important than those principles...

"Eh? Little Han?!"

"Don't move, Big Sis Bai!"

I raised my leg and crossed over Big Sis Bai's body.

The next moment, I was looking down at Big Sis Bai like this.

"I'll give you a blessing!"

I spoke softly.

Magic power surged.

The Great Wisdom Enlightenment Spell activated!

The Great Wisdom Enlightenment Spell was a Grand Spellbook, and its effect lasted for a long time.

Even if it wasn't now, I would have used this spell on Big Sis Bai at some point, because this spell was too important for a person.

Wisdom's Enlightenment—perhaps it couldn't instantly turn a person into a brilliant genius, but it would continuously and subtly change a person's way of thinking, no longer allowing them to be plagued by confusion...

This was the Great Wisdom Enlightenment Spell.

Even though a person could only use it once, that one time benefited them for life.

This was also a huge gamble for me.

I was betting on whether Big Sis Bai could figure things out.

Even I wasn't sure what Big Sis Bai's final decision would be.

Because... it was too fast.

All of this was too fast, so fast that I hadn't had time to accumulate enough bond with Big Sis Bai.

After all, a confession wasn't the bugle call to charge, but the ceremony to declare victory.

Although, from the beginning, this was a match where Big Sis Bai won without a fight.

At this moment, I also collapsed onto Big Sis Bai.

The amount of magic power the Great Wisdom Enlightenment Spell required was simply too much.

Unlike when I used it on those Fool's Dreams, I only wanted to give the best to Big Sis Bai right now.

Moreover, those Magic Power Sources were no longer carried by the Earth Vein Chains, but by my own body.

The dramatic consumption of Magic Power Sources, coupled with the complete draining of my Self-generating Magic Power, left me feeling empty.

It seemed that Big Sis Bai had become my most comfortable blanket: soft, reassuring...

Until I heard the thump-thump sound—Big Sis Bai's heartbeat.

It seemed to be saying something, urging me to let go of my last shred of vigilance...

An unknown amount of time passed, perhaps an instant, or perhaps a whole night.

I only felt a familiar voice calling out to me.

"Little Han... Little Han... are you asleep..."

"Mhm... not... not asleep... Big Sis Bai."

I rubbed my eyes.

"Little Han... did you do something to me just now?"

"I gave Big Sis Bai a blessing to like me, oh."

"So that's it... I can't help it... Little Han... I find that I've truly fallen in love with you..."

"Mhm mhm... Huh?!"

I hummed a few times, then suddenly reacted!

"Wait! What did you say, Big Sis Bai?"

I immediately lifted my head and looked at Big Sis Bai beneath me.

I suddenly realized...

"I said... I hope you'll like me, Little Han. Will you be my girlfriend? I will treat you well."

"Be... be my girlfriend! Really? Am I dreaming!"

At this moment, I was so excited I could barely express my feelings in words!

I was confessed to!

Big Sis Bai confessed to me!

"Mhm."

Big Sis Bai reached out and pinched my cheek at this moment.

"Ouch... it hurts... it's really not a dream!"

I placed my hand on Big Sis Bai's hand and rubbed my cheek again.

"So... Little Han, your answer is..."

"I do! I do!"

As my voice echoed in Bai Yu's ears, she no longer suppressed her heart.

She reached out and wrapped her arms around my neck, and the other hand around my waist, embracing me tightly.

Then, I only felt a warmth on my lips... and the heat of her breath was immediately cast upon my face.

Big Sis Bai's hand ran through my silver-white hair, lightly caressing the back of my neck, as if forcefully wanting to maintain this position.

Such an aggressive Big Sis Bai... I love it...

At this moment, the two figures on the bed intertwined, as if no amount of outside gossip could disturb the purity of the moment...

Everything around seemed to freeze at this moment, with only two passionate hearts and rapid breathing and heartbeats intertwining, forming the most beautiful melody in the tranquil night.

...

Morning.

"It's all your fault, Big Sis Bai. I almost couldn't get out of bed today, just as you predicted."

I said, playfully blaming Big Sis Bai in front of me.

Slap–

With a light sound, the garter thigh strap, hooked by Big Sis Bai's finger, made a sound against my thigh.

"I've put it on for you."

Big Sis Bai smiled, as if completely ignoring my complaint.

"Mhm."

I bit my lip slightly, reaching out to check the tightness of the thigh strap.

Although it felt taut, it was acceptable.

After all, this kind of feeling of being compressed into the flesh was the best.

Sure enough, Big Sis Bai knew best how to tie a thigh strap.

"Mhm, just right. I won't hold last night against Big Sis Bai."

I held onto the side of the bed and slowly stood up.

Although it was morning, I felt invigorated, and my mood was exceptionally joyful.

As for what exactly happened in the latter half of the night, that naturally had to remain a secret in my heart.

"Let's go, Little Han, I'll take you to breakfast."

Big Sis Bai reached out her hand and said with a smile.

I readily took Big Sis Bai's hand.

She quickly pulled me up.

After a simple wash-up, I regained all my energy, and the weariness was completely gone.

Just as Big Sis Bai and I finished washing up, several doors in the hallway outside the guest bedroom were quietly opened, and heads peeked out.

"They didn't notice us. They're going out this early in the morning?"

"Wow... Big Sis Bai was so fierce yesterday... The first-year girl needed to be helped out this morning?"

"I knew it. They definitely did unspeakable things last night!"

"This kind of thing leaves an endless craving. I wonder how Big Sis Bai will handle it later."

"Sigh. We are ultimately not people from the same world as Big Sis Bai. But does anyone know that first-year girl's contact information? I want to take care of Big Sis Bai's first-year girl in her absence."

"I don't know her. Does anyone know what grade she's in? White hair should be easy to distinguish. What was her name again?"

"Big Sis Bai called her Little Han. That name sounds familiar..."

"The Calamity Witch Little Han, you probably mean her."

"But this Little Han is clearly not that one. Even if that one is a newcomer, we probably can't afford to provoke her..."

Meanwhile.

Big Sis Bai was taking me to the academy's Main Cafeteria.

If you were to ask where the most comprehensive and delicious breakfast was, it was naturally at the cafeteria.

Big Sis Bai didn't ride her broom to take me; the reason... well, no need to say.

We chose to take the car.

Just leisurely strolling along, it certainly felt special.

And Big Sis Bai was the one who originally helped me get used to taking the car, but it was a shame that I rarely took the car after getting my Flying License.

After arriving at the cafeteria, Big Sis Bai ordered quite a bit of breakfast for me.

"That's enough, Big Sis Bai. I can't eat that much."

"It's fine, eat something good. Consider it replenishing your body."

"I haven't reached the point of needing to replenish my body, have I? I'm a Self-Awakened Body Cultivator; I know my body very well!"

"Alright, alright. Just have a good meal today."

At Big Sis Bai's insistence, we found a secluded spot and sat down.

The morning breakfast was very hearty: a small bowl of thick lean meat congee.

The meat was from a precious, farmed transcendent exotic beast.

Just from this small bowl of congee, one could see that for some, advancing to Transcendent meant graduation, while for some farmed exotic beasts, advancing to Transcendent meant being served on a dinner plate... Truly lamentable.

Then there were other items, such as a fried egg, dried meat slices, bread salad, and a small dessert after the meal.

At this moment, we both tacitly avoided the topic of impending separation, just greedily enjoying the present warmth.

Until a figure inadvertently appeared behind Big Sis Bai.

My gaze narrowed slightly as I looked at the unfamiliar figure.

The other person seemed a little surprised, as if shocked that I could see her, but that surprise quickly vanished.

She stood quietly behind, waiting, until the breakfast was completely finished.

As I put down the spoon for the small dessert, the figure moved.

She slowly walked closer, without attracting anyone's attention, as if she didn't exist there.

At this moment, Bai Yu also noticed my abnormality and followed my gaze backward.

When she turned back, a trace of disappointment appeared on her face.

"Sorry, Little Han, I might have to leave now."

"It's okay, Big Sis Bai, go quickly. I have no regrets now."

I smiled and waved my hand.

At this moment, I was certain that the figure was the Primal Witch... an avatar of her.

Just as Big Sis Bai and I thought this was the farewell, the figure suddenly spoke.

"Little Han... your name is Yang Yuehan, right?"

"Yes..."

I replied calmly.

For some reason, I knew I was facing the Primal Witch, but I felt no tension at all, as if I were facing a very ordinary person.

I even felt a sense of affinity.

"How interesting. Keep up the good work. I have high hopes for you."

The Primal Witch reached out and gently stroked my head.

The next moment, her figure vanished, and Big Sis Bai also disappeared with her.

All of it felt like a dream.

Only the dining ware on the table proved that Big Sis Bai had once eaten breakfast here with me.

I stood up, gathered the tableware, and walked towards the collection point, muttering to myself.

"Honestly, Big Sis Bai, making me clean up after eating... I can't do anything about you... Hmph."
