Hate Me, Miss Witch!

"Xia Ya, wake up quickly, we still have things to do..."

There was the sound of flying snow outside the window.

Through the window, you can see the vast silver-white snowfield in the distance.

Occasionally, a howling wind blows through the snowfield, causing the entire silver fir forest to rustle, and the snow dust on the silver fir treetops is constantly shaken down.

The only night light on the table cast a subtle glow.

Xia Ya opened his eyes and saw that in his arms, the blond girl had woken up and was looking at him very closely with her sky blue eyes.

The long pale golden hair was spread on Xia Ya's arms, with a slightly itchy touch.

His fingertips traced the girl's snow-white and graceful back, giving off a warm and extremely smooth touch, making people unconsciously intoxicated by it.

Xia Ya yawned and looked at the snowy field outside the window.

"Why did you change the background of the Garden of Eden to look like Ceylon?"

"Because...I miss our time in Ceylon more and more now."

The blond girl curled up in Xia Ya's arms and looked up at Xia Ya's face slightly.

She blinked her beautiful sky-blue eyes and spoke softly: "In Ceylon, although we are not very familiar with each other, we have not yet made such a contract..."

"But at least-"

"At that time, you belonged to me alone."

The girl's voice was very sweet, like the ringing of wind chimes at midnight.

But with a slight sigh and helplessness, it was like talking to the sound of wind and snow outside the window.

"There is no Miss Sylvia, nor Her Majesty the Queen, to compete with me."

"But not like now -"

"Only in this short time can I have you exclusively for a short time."

She gently stretched out her snow-white arms and hugged Xia Ya's neck gently.

"However, in the final analysis...this is just a little bit of exclusivity on my part."

The plain white fingers gently rubbed Xia Ya's face.

Then he would linger on Xia Ya and return to the soft quilt again.

"It's still a long time before dawn..."

"We should be able to do it again."

"I have been looking forward to our reunion today for a long time..."

"Look, I'm wearing your favorite black stocking just for you today."

The melodious voice was like the cry of a nightingale.

The ethereal flow sounded, pulling Xia Ya to fall into the dreamy and gentle land.

However, I felt the soft and tender body of the girl in my arms.

Xia Ya glanced at the beautiful black stocking legs of the blond girl in her arms, looming between the gaps in the quilt, but the love in her eyes slowly calmed down.

"Who are you?"

Xia Ya's soft words made the soft body in her arms stiffen slightly.

There was a flash of panic in her sky-blue eyes, but it quickly calmed down.

The blonde girl lightly pursed her pretty red lips and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Xia Ya's voice.

"If it's Xiao Ai, even if she hasn't had enough fun before, she wants to be intimate with me again..."

"Then she would just blush and tug on my sleeve, and would never take the initiative to invite me like this."

"Especially things like black silk stockings. This is Xiao Ai's trump card. Even if it has been prepared a long time ago, it will definitely be hidden. It will definitely be the trump card for the finale. How can it be so easy? Not yet. It whets my appetite and opens it up.”

Xia sat up on the bed, half leaning on the backrest of the bed, and looked at the blond girl in front of him.

No matter how harsh you are, the girl in front of you is very similar to Alora in appearance. There is no flaw in it, and even the tone of her voice is the same.

However, when he saw the other person for the first time, Xia Ya felt a slight sense of strangeness in his heart.

He himself couldn't talk about the specific details of the problem. If he had to say it, it was probably the sixth sense.

This is the unique tacit understanding between Char and Alora, the tacit understanding developed after spending countless days and nights together... perhaps it can be described as a tacit understanding.

Under this tacit understanding, they can know each other's thoughts with just one look, and there is no possibility of admitting mistakes.

This is why when Char returned to the Fourth Age, Sylvia thought that Char had lost her memory and was a little hesitant to recognize her, but Aurora never had the slightest hesitation.

With just one glance, Aurora could recognize that the Char in front of her was the real Char, who had never lost her memory, and was not the disguise of the old sun god who had taken away his body.

The same was true when Char recognized Alora.

The blond girl in front of her was sitting on her knees on the soft bed like a duck.

Listening to Xia Ya's words, a trace of astonishment flashed in the beautiful blue eyes.

"Haven't you all been living together in the Garden of Eden for ten years? After such a long time, you can be considered an old couple. You should have seen all kinds of tricks."

"how……"

She didn't finish her words, but the meaning was clear.

Why are we already an old married couple, yet they can still look like this when they are making out.

Are you still pulling your sleeves with a blushing face? Are you an innocent virgin falling in love for the first time?

"Then I'm very helpless...but Xiao Ai is indeed like this."

Xia Ya sighed helplessly: "If you must find a reason..."

"Maybe it's because the attribute "Tsundere" is a locked skill? It won't change at all as the favorability and time spent together progress. "

"Of course, what really makes me sure is the feel."

Xia Ya looked at his right hand with distinct knuckles.

"I know Xiao Ai's touch very well..."

"I felt something was wrong as soon as I touched it. That girl's description of it as an airport is a bit insulting. It's just a pure steel plate... but it doesn't have as plump and soft feel as yours."

After hearing Xia Ya's words, the blond girl in front of her couldn't help but frown slightly.

"But... I clearly carved it exactly one-to-one according to Miss Aurora's body shape. Even in terms of touch, there will never be the slightest difference."

"Of course it's because what you see is fake."

"Although she usually looks indifferent and cool, that girl actually has a very face-conscious side."

"It just so happens that both Xi Bao and Your Majesty are the type who are generous when they are tolerant. This girl puts things under her clothes every day in order to not be weaker than others."

Xia Ya waved his hand casually: "Of course, although it's a little awkward, I like Xiao Ai very much."

His eyes carefully examined the surrounding environment.

After a moment, Fang spoke softly.

"Although it looks the same as the real thing, if you look closely... you can still detect subtle differences."

"In other words, this is a dream?"

"That's right. Only by falling asleep... can it be possible to sneak across Yinping under the noses of the three people in my family and take Shuhan directly."

Xia Ya looked at the girl sitting on the bed in front of her.

Although her disguise was exposed by Xia Ya, she still stared at Xia Ya straightly.

Those beautiful sky-blue eyes were shining with light, with undisguised nostalgia and nostalgia.

"Because you are not hostile to me, and because your aura is in my subconscious, you are a friend and partner, and you are a trustworthy person..."

"So your behavior of falling asleep did not trigger my subconscious counterattack."

Xia looked out the window at the pure white snowfield covered in silver, then at the silver fir forest swaying in the wind in the distance, and even further away at the herds of northern reindeer traveling in groups on the ice field.

"You know the existence of the Garden of Eden, but you have never really entered the Garden of Eden, and you know nothing about the scenery... So you just changed the environment around the dream and replaced it with the snowfield in Ceylon, and said that this is The landscape of Alora’s mind.”

"This place is no different from the real scenery in Ceylon...so I was really intoxicated in it for the first time and didn't react."

"You should have really been to the Northland and seen the ruins of Ceylon buried by the wind and snow, which is also the hometown of Xiao Ai and I..."

"That's why we were able to create such a realistic Ceylon landscape..."

Xia Ya looked at the snowy scenery outside the window, and a trace of nostalgia flashed in his eyes: "I do have a heart."

"If Xiao Ai really creates an inherent barrier, then the reality of the landscape fantasy in her mind should be this vast snowfield."

After a long time, he finally withdrew his gaze and once again landed on the blond girl in front of him with her head lowered.

"Has the ability to enter dreams and weave dreams, and is recognized in my subconscious as a trustworthy friend and partner."

"I only know two people of the opposite sex."

"Although Diris is a succubus princess and has the racial talent of "Dream Creation", with her rank, even if I don't fight back subconsciously, I want to do it under the noses of Xiao Ai and Xi Bao. This action is a bit too difficult. "

"Besides, there is a domineering queen who is full of dominance. I think Diris would not dare to do this in front of her immediate boss..."

Xia Ya couldn't help but smile.

"so--"

"Are you Ye?"

There was a slight pause in his words.

"Of course, if you don't like this childhood title, I can also call you Your Majesty Ogutina."

…

There was silence in the empty house for a moment.

All that was left was the whine of the blizzard outside the house.

I don’t know how long it took, but the thin night cover quietly enveloped the entire room.

"Sure enough, no matter how I design it, I still can't hide it from you."

"Need not--"

"Compared to Your Majesty Ogutina, I prefer you to call me Ye..."

"No, not just like it more, but like it very much, like it very much."

The night turned into a hazy veil, making it difficult to see the true appearance.

And when the faint night light dissipated, the true face of the girl inside could be seen clearly.

Black hair, black dress, and delicate and flawless face, are those red-gold eyes.

Beautiful and majestic, if someone of lesser stature were looked directly into these golden eyes, they would probably be overwhelmed by the majestic dragon power in an instant.

However, in front of Xia Ya, the majesty of the golden dragon eyes only flashed away.

The girl in the black dress stared blankly at Xia Ya, and in her beautiful golden eyes, countless turbulent and complex colors that were difficult to explain flashed through.

The leader and founder of the Shadow Council, the monarch of the dark world of the Western Continent, the Queen of the Night, Ogutina.

At the same time, he is also the contract partner of Char's fourth soul contract, the Dragon of the Night.

As the Dragon of the Night, who controls the authority of the night and shadows, the areas related to dreams are naturally part of the authority of the night.

"I finally... met you in person again."

"Char."

"Or...Master."

Her red lips parted slightly.

A pleasant voice sounded.

It sounds calm on the surface, but it contains countless suppressed and turbulent emotions that may burst out at any time.

"night……"

Xia Ya opened her mouth.

Although he had already expected this answer, when Ogutina actually admitted it, he found that he still didn't know how to deal with it.

"Why do you pretend to be Xiao Ai in your dream?"

"Obviously based on our contractual relationship, if you want to ask me to meet, all you need is a thought."

"Yeah...why?"

Ogutina gently tugged at the hem of her dark skirt.

Obviously when she was pretending to be Aurora, she seemed quite bold and proactive. If Char hadn't revealed her identity, she might have succeeded in deducing it now.

However, when he appeared in front of Char not in the disguise of Aurora, but in his true body.

But she completely lost the calm and active look she had before.

"Because of cowardice and inferiority..."

There was a bit of self-deprecation in Ogutina's words.

"From the bottom of my heart, I envy Miss Aurora's position in your heart."

"And I don't have that confidence."

"Even though I've done a lot of things... I'm still not sure."

"When the identity of Ogutina, Queen of the Night, merges with the identity of the little dragon of the night you contracted."

"What kind of status can I have in your heart..."

She stared at Xia with her golden eyes.

"You are good to that little night dragon, just like you are good to your other pet beasts."

"Even with the most critical eyes, you can be regarded as a beast master who takes good care of pet beasts——"

"I know that if I am willing, we can be friends forever and become the strongest and most reliable allies."

"But I don't want this to be the case."

The emotions that surged like an undercurrent slowly gush out at this moment.

"I don't want to be just like Yin or Chihong, who can lie on top of your head to bask in the sun and listen to your stories...it may seem intimate, but in the end it's just the intimacy between a beast master and a pet beast."

"What I want to pursue is a further relationship."

"It is not a pet beast, not the object of an equal contract, nor a trustworthy friend...but a relationship that can occupy a place in your heart like Xiao Ai and Sylvia."

"I don't know where this emotion originated. Maybe it's because of the special fate brought about by the first sight in the deserted and dilapidated Ancient Dragon King's Court."

"Maybe it's the result of the fermentation of my thoughts and feelings day and night during the time when I was separated from you at the end of the first era and in the following several eras."

"However, this is indeed the only hope in my heart at this moment."

Augustina's plain white fingers unconsciously played with her dark hair.

"But I'm not confident."

"I don't know, in your heart, you already have Xiao Ai, you have Sylvia, you have Her Majesty Isadella, and you have Hathaway and the others, they are already filled to the brim, can you still tolerate it? Get off my spot..."

She glanced at Xia Ya: "If my intelligence source is correct, the Dawn Saint Su Lun should also have a place in your heart, right?"

"Although your relationship with her is not obvious on weekdays, in fact, you have always been paying attention to the situation in the Holy See of Dawn... Even this time, you did not resolve the cause and effect of the first era and returned directly to the fourth era. In fact, It’s also related to Su Lun.”

"Um."

Xia Ya nodded in surprise.

His relationship with Su Lun can be regarded as the most hidden existence in his fish pond.

Except for Xiao Ai who is plastic best friends with Su Lun, even Sylvia and Isadella don't know much about Su Lun's affairs.

Moreover, after defeating the remnant soul of the old sun god, Xia did detect some information, information directly related to Su Lun.

Unexpectedly, Ogutina was even aware of these things.

Should we say that the Shadow Council is indeed the most powerful intelligence organization in the Western Continent...or should we say that Ogutina cares about her beyond imagination.

In order to weave this dream, she made a special trip to the ruins of Ceylon in the North.

Being able to reproduce every detail of the entire snowfield in every detail... Such a workload is a huge loss even for a throne, just like Char and Hathaway's last trip. Like a bubble city.

"That's why I'm even more scared and unsure of myself."

Ogutina looked at the flickering candlelight not far away.

"That's why I came up with this idea. I thought about pretending to be Xiao Ai first, and then I could cook with you in my dream."

"I know your character..."

"As long as we really have that step, even if it is just a dream, you will definitely be responsible for me."

"But now I think about it, what I did before was really too selfish."

She smiled slightly and said with some relief: "Fortunately, Master, you didn't succeed in my plan."

This is a sincere relief.

Before, because she was trapped in the obsession of that long time, it was difficult for her to extricate herself. Until now, Augustina suddenly realized how selfish her previous thoughts were.

Even if she really succeeded, it was just a way of moral kidnapping to force Char to accept herself.

The relationship built on the hypocritical bubble was definitely not what Augustina wanted to pursue at the cost of crossing several eras.

If a forced melon is sweet, and is the real thing she wants... then she should have taken Char, who was still very weak and had not even reached the fourth ring, back to the Silent Forest and forced herself on him when she first met him in the Dark Night Garden of the Imperial Capital.

Instead of waiting in anticipation until today.

"Now I will no longer force things that force both parties and make both parties unhappy."

"But-"

Her words were slightly relieved.

However, the dazzling light in Augustina's eyes was getting stronger and stronger.

The surging emotions burst out directly like this.

"I still want an answer from you."

"Don't force it, and don't be constrained by responsibilities, burdens, male chauvinism, men's creeds, etc.... Just answer truthfully."

She gently moved forward a little.

"After experiencing the end of the Third Epoch, fighting side by side to save Her Majesty Isadella..."

"Also, after experiencing the ups and downs of the First Epoch, and the five hundred years of companionship under the abyss."

"Now I--"

"I can leave a mark in your heart that is different from a pet."

"There was a moment--"

"Did it make you want to become a dragon knight?"

The black-dressed girl whispered with a slight tremor.

At this moment, Char seemed to hear the sound of the tide.

Because it was an equal contractual relationship, Char could not sense Augustina's intentions at any time like he did with Shanshan and Yin when the other party deliberately concealed it.

But at this moment, the previous concealment was taken by Augustina.

The hot emotions were like a raging sea wave, and they came so unreservedly.

When they first met, the intimacy and trust between the pet and the beastmaster...

The panic and despair of being abandoned alone in the First Epoch.

The yearning lasted for several epochs.

And in the later Fourth Epoch, I had seen Char's real body countless times.

But because the time had not come yet, Char had no memory of me, and I could only watch the women who came later slowly gather around him, but I could do nothing.

And later, I used the hourglass of time to return to the First Epoch and returned to Char's side.

At the bottom of the abyss, I stayed by Char's side in his sleep for five hundred years.

Lonely, lonely, but made her happy and relieved.

The surging emotions that spanned several epochs were reflected in Char's heart without reservation.

Until this moment, Char had just confirmed one thing very clearly.

The feelings that Augustina had for me were not the special affection of the creatures that I saw at the first sight of the shell.

But love.

It was not the love and intimacy of a pet for the beastmaster who took care of it, but the love of a girl for a boy.

It started in the First Epoch and has never changed until now.

Wandering around, displaced...

Just for this moment, to meet you.
