Chapter 31 : The moonlight spills, the heart remains the same, but the person once by my side is no longer seen
The above was the entire process of classmate Aimiya asking Teacher Jiang Mengyun for leave, and also the reason why she absolutely dared not tell Iphilia the specific process.
Although they had only been together for a short half-day, Aimiya believed she had roughly understood Iphilia's personality.
This two-year-old Miss Demon was the type of cute girl who appeared bold and reliable on the surface, but was actually a weak submissive.
Because of her personality, if she ever found out that she used such a thing as a shield to get leave and go home, she would probably get angry to the point of turning red hot on the spot, and then kick herself out of bed.
At that time, she would truly have nowhere to sleep.
What Aimiya said when she asked Iphilia to “take her in” just now were all her heartfelt words.
She really disliked sleeping on the sofa.
“…”
As the first “nighttime little game” between Miss Angel and Miss Demon ended, the atmosphere in the room gradually returned to calm.
Aimiya lay quietly on the bed, her expression calm as she gazed at the moonlight spills on the ceiling.
This was a habit she had developed since she was a child.
She really liked to lie in bed and quietly admire the moonlight on such quiet nights.
This would make her heart feel an unprecedented sense of peace and relaxation.
It's just that… if it were in the past, there would probably be a guy sitting beside her helplessly, coaxed by her to sleep.
Now, neither she nor the moon had changed, but the person who once sat beside her and helplessly coaxed her to sleep… was long gone.
『The moonlight spills, the heart remains the same, but the person once by my side is no longer seen』
Aimiya subconsciously glanced at Iphilia, who was now lying beside her.
She had long since fallen into a deep sleep, hugging her favorite life-sized body pillow.
Her tender and alluring little mouth would even smack twice from time to time, making a very cute sound.
And in Aimiya's eyes, next to Iphilia's figure… her “brother's” figure inexplicably appeared once again…
『If I say it out loud, you can’t laugh at me… I'm two years old this year…』
『Haha! Don't worry, my good sister, I'll be back soon, don't worry about me!』
Iphilia said… she was two years old this year…
Brother… happened to pass away two years ago too…
And Iphilia's ideal… a partner of justice… the pursuit of justice… clearly a demon… yet she would fight to help the weak humans…
If I think about it in conjunction with my own experience…
Aimiya found herself lost in wild thoughts.
Time and time again, she superimposed Iphilia's figure with that person's figure. Aimiya always felt that this couldn't be a coincidence.
A certain famous foreign detective once said: There are no coincidences in this world; everything happens for a reason.
“But… this is impossible…”
Aimiya's voice trembled slightly.
She clearly knew that it was just her own wild thoughts; Iphilia couldn't be that person.
She could become an angel because her previous life was an angel who fell from the high heavens to the human world during the【War】, and reincarnating as a human could be explained.
But that person's previous life couldn't possibly be a demon… no, that's not the right way to put it.
It should be, demons simply cannot be reincarnated as humans.
Because angels could still fall from the high heavens located “above” the human world, but Hell was located “below” the human world.
In this situation, even if a demon died in battle during the【War】, their soul would directly return to Hell. There was no chance for them to stray into the human world and be reincarnated as humans!
Therefore, Iphilia couldn't be “him.”
Aimiya gave a bitter smile.
She felt that she was probably really crazy, to actually mistake this demon she had just met for two days for the reincarnation of “him”… Heh, was this love sickness?
But Aimiya also had to admit that she did have an inexplicable, natural fondness for Iphilia.
Even though Iphilia did such an outrageous thing to her when they first met, even though she was so angry last night and swore to XXOOX her, when she saw Iphilia for the first time on the podium this morning, a sense of joy and intimacy would still unconsciously arise in her heart.
“…Sigh, forget it, let's sleep first…”
Aimiya shook her head.
She felt that if she continued to think like this, there would be no need for her to sleep at all tonight.
So she tried her best to clear her mind of miscellaneous thoughts and slowly closed her eyes…
Then, she was awakened by Iphilia, who had suddenly wrapped herself around her.
“Mmm… soft, smells good… so comfortable”
Aimiya opened her eyes in shock.
Iphilia, who had been determined to “draw a clear line” with Aimiya, had now actively crossed that “line,” clinging to her like a giant panda hugging a bamboo.
“…” Aimiya felt like she had discovered another one of Iphilia's little-known secrets: her sleeping posture wasn't very good.
“Iphilia… chan?”
Aimiya tried calling Iphilia, but Iphilia seemed to be dead asleep and didn't react at all.
She rested her head on Aimiya's shoulder, her hands affectionately wrapped around Aimiya's neck, and from time to time, she would utter a few cute sleep-talking sounds.
“Pfft…”
Seeing the usually so tsundere Iphilia turn into such a clingy bug at night, Aimiya couldn't help but chuckle.
Suddenly, as if remembering something, she smiled mischievously, picked up the phone placed by her pillow, and used the selfie function to take a few photos of Iphilia clinging to her side… and a short little video.
If she remembered correctly, Iphilia's phone still held the “leverage” from when she was bullied by her last night.
But from now on, she also had “leverage” on her. If she didn't behave obediently… hee hee~
Miss Demon, you probably don't want these photos and videos to get out, do you?
With this in hand, it would be a piece of cake to handle this little demon Iphilia, whose face was as thin as a crispy cracker, in the future, right?
After collecting the leverage, Aimiya also felt a little sleepy.
She reached out and covered Iphilia with her own quilt—more than half of her body, beautiful as a work of art, was exposed.
If she continued to sleep like this, she could easily catch a cold.
She had to be covered properly.
After doing this, Aimiya's consciousness gradually began to grow drowsy.
Although she had already convinced herself that Iphilia was not the reincarnation of “that person,” this did not prevent her from continuing to imagine some other possibilities.
For example…
『Iphilia-classmate, if you could have appeared a little earlier… if you could have been in that city on that day two years ago… if you could have kindly extended a helping hand to him…』
『Then he, would he not have died?』
