Meng Lian: ?
A popular saying in the Alliance goes: "The greatest divide in life is the amniotic fluid." Yet Meng Lian never imagined that even in the Illusionary Realm Nordrin—a world akin to a second life—the gap between people could still be so vast.
Others were princesses, playing with priceless Magic Artifacts as toys, while she had a yandere younger sister who had drained her dry in bed for five days straight.
Waaah, Coach, this game is pay-to-win!
How can anyone play without cheating?
"Junior Sister, be content," Qian Yun sighed. "I'm still a wanted criminal, constantly hiding and running. Every day is spent either fleeing or evading the authorities. It's gotten so bad that I flinch at the sound of sirens in the real world."
Seeing Meng Lian's downcast expression, Qian Yun couldn't help but sigh again. "Ah, not everyone can be a Little Star. I envy Little Star so much."
Qian Yun playfully pinched Fei Xing's cheek in mock frustration, but Fei Xing retorted indignantly, "Didn't I help you in Nordrin? Don't blame me if you don't appreciate it. Besides, last week, when I was sleeping in Nordrin, wasn't it you standing by my bed in the middle of the night? Don't think I didn't notice."
"Huh? Senior Sister, Third Senior Sister, you two know each other in Nordrin?"
Meng Lian asked, puzzled, "Didn't Mo Du say we shouldn't reveal our identities in Nordrin?"
"There aren't that many empires in Nordrin," Qian Yun replied with a mischievous grin, as if recalling a fond memory. "If a princess shows up, it's easy to figure out which empire she belongs to. In Nordrin, as long as you don't reveal yourself and no one suspects you're an outsider, you're fine. We outsiders usually know who each other are—it's an unspoken understanding. But Little Star here thought she was so well-hidden! The first time she captured me, she even put on an act, pretending she had everything under control. Hahaha, looking back, it's just adorable."
"How was I supposed to know you'd figured out my identity so early on?" Fei Xing retorted, her face flushing crimson. "And didn't you let me capture you on purpose that time? I even kindly took you to my room to sleep, but you—you jerk! You even..."
As she spoke, Fei Xing's face turned even redder, her eyes swirling like mosquito coils, and a wisp of white steam rose from her head.
Whoa, a real steam-powered girl!
But... why does this feel so unexpectedly cute?
Meng Lian watched Qian Yun's mischievous grin and Fei Xing's blushing face, unable to suppress a fond, aunt-like smile.
Tsundere imperial princess x runaway wanted criminal—what a classic pairing!
"Junior Sister, you're not misunderstanding, are you? I like *older* women, not little girls like you."
"Who cares if you're interested in me or not! Hmph! Next time you get caught, don't expect me to save you. You can rot in jail for all I care!"
It took another blueberry cupcake to coax Fei Xing back into a good mood.
More of this older woman and little girl bonding, please!
Delicious!
"Alright, enough teasing. Since Little Star gave us a welcome gift, as the Senior Sister, I should prepare something too."
After coaxing Fei Xing, Qian Yun pulled out a pair of scissors and handed them to Meng Lian.
"Magic Artifact: Void-Piercing Scissors. Its ability is to cut through space. It can serve as a storage space or a teleportation portal—how you use it is up to you."
Space-related Magic Artifacts were known to be incredibly valuable.
After all, space reigned supreme, and time was revered. Anything connected to spacetime was destined to be extraordinary.
"Junior Sister, just accept it. I occasionally found it in Nordrin anyway, so don't feel too indebted."
Hearing this, Meng Lian finally accepted the gift, offering a sweet "Thank you, Senior Sister!"
What? A sweet girl persona doesn't fit her?
Please, with such a fantastic welcome gift, why not be sweet for a day? Not only am I being sweet, but I'm also being my Senior Sister's thoughtful little cotton-padded jacket!
"Magic Artifact: Tear of the Water God. It can block one mental attack, with a ten-day cooldown."
Mo Du then produced a blue teardrop-shaped necklace, thoughtfully explaining its function.
"Thank you, Senior Sister! You're the best!"
Seeing another valuable item, Meng Lian immediately responded with another sweet exclamation.
Ah, being sweet is wonderful! A few sweet words, and all these treasures are mine!
Mo Du's heart fluttered at the sound of Meng Lian's sweet voice. She glanced subtly at Meng Lian's older sister, mentally plotting whether she should find the woman a girlfriend first, and then...
Qian Yun, well aware of Mo Du's peculiar tastes, instantly recognized the twisted thoughts swirling in her mind. She sighed inwardly. Find the original chapter at g.com.
Why couldn't she like something normal? Why did it have to be NTR?
Even their shameless mentor, Zi Yan, only used her QQ space to find young couples, while Qian Yun herself merely watched the drama unfold like a live-action porno, occasionally indulging in self-pleasure on the sidelines. The student has surpassed the master, she thought. I just hope Junior Sister doesn't get corrupted by these two perverts.
Qian Yun cleared her throat, interrupting Mo Du's scheming. Meng Lian remained blissfully unaware of the near-NTR crisis she had narrowly avoided.
"Alright, Junior Sister, you've already received your student ID, but the entrance exams aren't over yet. It's best if you don't linger here. Let's head back."
That's right, Meng Lian thought. I'm still a freshman, and Bai Wei made an exception by giving me my ID early. I should return to the Freshman Zone.
With that, Meng Lian warmly embraced her Senior Sisters goodbye, sparred briefly with Qian Yun's older sister, gave Fei Xing a facial cleanser as a parting gift, and prepared to return to the Freshman Zone.
Overjoyed with her haul of treasures, Meng Lian momentarily lost herself in excitement.
Fei Xing's face flushed crimson when Qian Yun cheekily asked her which "big sister" felt better, making Fei Xing's cheeks burn even brighter.
Mine, of course!
Meng Lian held an unwavering belief in her superiority as a "big sister." She declared it here and now: even the Sequence Witch herself would submit to her "big sister" prowess!
Maybe one day I'll even attain enlightenment through being a "big sister," becoming the Great Sister Witch?
These were just wild fantasies swirling in Meng Lian's mind. She stowed the Void-Piercing Scissors in her storage bracelet, hung the Tear of the Water God around her neck, and tucked the teardrop-shaped pendant deep within her "big sister" cleavage. With a lighthearted skip, she returned to Mo Du's souvenir shop.
Emerging from the back room, she found the shop still packed with customers. Tao Zhuo, however, had lost the energy she'd shown just days ago, now slumped listlessly over the counter.
Meng Lian felt a pang of sympathy for Tao Zhuo. She wondered what "bewitching elixir" Mo Du had fed her to make her so diligently test the freshmen, while Mo Du herself lounged comfortably at the Witch Academy, sipping coffee and scrolling through her phone.
But none of this concerned Meng Lian. She greeted Tao Zhuo briefly and headed back to her dormitory.
At the dormitory entrance, she unexpectedly ran into Gabriel and Phoebe. The two girls beamed at Meng Lian, their earlier despondency completely gone.
"Meng Lian, what a coincidence!"
"Benefactor, Benefactor! Li Li and I successfully underwent Witch Transformation!"
