My name is Levi, and I work in anime.

If possible, it's best to avoid seeing each other at school as much as possible; it'll shorten your lifespan.

That's what the boy thought.

……

At night, the boy held the three books he had plundered that day under the lamplight and studied them carefully.

The publisher and distributor of that copy of "Andersen's Fairy Tales" had conducted investigations and found absolutely no problems. Li Wei, after repeated examinations, also concluded that it was simply a fairy tale book.

The other two books, whose titles sound impressive but are not immediately clear, are one about a woman's story and the other about a woman's story.

"The Hole of Heaven" tells the story of a woman who is murmuring sensually as if she is drowning in pleasure, holding a celestial body as if she is cradling a nursing baby.

"The Pure Land of Dharma Joy" tells the story of a woman whose body was offered as a living sacrifice to the six desires, whispering, "Please be liberated." She allows the six desires to reside within her, transforming into the Pure Land of Dharma Joy.

The story is very simple from all angles, and there is nothing unusual about it.

But considering that they were firmly locked deep inside the mechanism to avoid being discovered by others, the boy absolutely did not believe that there was nothing wrong with them.

Both the writing structure and the style of writing reminded Li Wei of a book he had read before, "Yongtianliu's Collection of Teachings and Practices".

"No, I just can't figure it out no matter what." Shaking his head, the boy gave up the desire to continue studying.

It's often not good to get stuck on a single point and keep thinking about it. Take a break and think about it again at another time.

With this in mind, Li Wei tidied up the books, turned over, went to bed, and slept very comfortably.

The one who appeared in his dream again today was still Sister Liuli.

"Hey, it feels like Sister Ruri appears more often than usual. Is it just my imagination?" The boy, who was being held in Sister Ruri's arms in his dream, couldn't help but think this.

To be precise, it's not just the frequency; ever since I returned from the Ryougi family, Ruri's movements in my dreams have also become increasingly exaggerated.

At first, she just stood at the head of the bed and looked at herself. Later, she sat at the head of the bed and stroked herself. Then, she got into bed with me and hugged me.

Following this evolutionary pattern, will the next step be to be able to speak?

"But I'd be quite happy if Sister Ruri could talk to me." The boy said this half-jokingly, looking at the older sister who was still expressionless, like a soulless doll.

Then, I wrapped my arms around the older sister's incredibly soft body, adjusted myself to the most comfortable position, and fell into a deep sleep.

What he couldn't see was that, after reading "The Hole of Heaven" and "The Pure Land of Dharma Joy," strange magical power was flowing into Liuli's body through the point where the two were embracing.

In a daze, the expressionless older sister seemed to blink.

Chapter 49 Hong Meiling: Please don't bring women from outside the school to school, thank you.

The next day, still clueless, Li Wei decided to go to school. Since he couldn't figure out what to do next, he figured he might as well be a good student and maybe some unexpected ideas would come to him.

This resulted in the boy spending most of his time in a daze during the day. Fortunately, the high school curriculum was very simple, and the teachers wouldn't bother him, a top student, so there was no problem.

Regarding the white-haired boy in the Tachikawa school of Shingon Tantra—who is most likely the same Roya mentioned by Arcueid—he has already issued arrest warrants in both the real and virtual worlds. All that can be done now is to wait.

When I saw Yukino this morning, I casually asked about Yoko's situation.

According to Yukino, her mother has now largely accepted the reality of having two daughters, and her health is gradually improving. Although her memory hasn't improved, overall it seems to be progressing in a positive direction.

Li Wei just felt inexplicably irritable.

It was as if something was about to happen that was getting closer and closer to him, but he never realized it and could only wait in vain.

Just then, the boy's phone suddenly beeped with a notification that a new message had been received.

I opened my phone, and the sender's name was displayed: Oversized Yukinoshita.

"..."

"!!!"

The boy, who had been quite calm, was startled upon seeing the message and raised his hand to ask the teacher on the podium for leave.

"Ah, I don't know what you're up to this time, Li Wei, but since you've got something to do, go ahead and do it." The pink-haired history teacher sighed and said helplessly.

"Thank you so much."

After receiving permission, the boy immediately left the classroom and headed straight for the school gate.

Meanwhile, in front of the gates of the White Emperor Academy.

The gatekeeper, dressed in green, looked the mature older sister in front of him up and down. Although she was wearing his school uniform, she didn't look like a high school student at all.

Moreover, this school uniform looks very ill-fitting, with everything stretched tight, almost like an adult parent wearing their own child's school uniform.

That voluptuous figure, that lewd bust size... well, there are plenty of men older than her at school, but she still has the air of a married woman.

What is going on?

Just as the gatekeeper was hesitating about whether to put the enormous Yukinoshita inside, Levi appeared.

"Excuse me, she's here to see me."

Grabbing Yoko's hand, the boy apologized to the girl in the security booth in an embarrassed tone: "I'll take her away right away. I'm sorry for the trouble."

"Ah, what's this? So it's your woman again, kid." The guard in dark green revealed an "I knew it" expression: "In that case, you'd better figure out how to deal with it yourself. Don't waste class time."

And so, holding onto the enormous hand of the snow-covered boy, the boy led her to a small alley not far from the school.

There, Lady Yukinoshita looked at Li Wei with a somewhat timid and nervous expression, as if the boy was bullying her.

"Um, did I do something wrong?"

"This isn't a question of right or wrong." Seeing that the other person was clearly an adult, but had the expression of a little girl, the boy's initial dissatisfaction vanished.

“Your illness isn’t cured yet; you shouldn’t be wandering around,” Li Wei explained in a doctor’s tone, as if advising a patient. “Besides, what are you doing at school?”

"This school is the only place I still remember. I want to come here to see if I can recover my memories."

Although still a little nervous, the enormous Yukinoshita was unusually resolute: "I know my daughter is under a lot of pressure right now. If I can't help her and instead just put more pressure on her, wouldn't I be ashamed of myself as a mother?!"

"..." That was a truly unexpected answer.

You're only 13 years old and you've already thought of all this? That's amazing, Yoko.

The young man couldn't help but feel a sense of respect for her; he had underestimated this woman.

At the same time, the boy's phone rang again.

Upon answering the phone, Yang Nai's urgent voice came from the other end:

"Avi, my mom suddenly disappeared. She was just telling me to take a nap, but now..."

“Don’t worry, your mother is in my hands now.” The boy subconsciously offered some comfort, then realized his words were ambiguous and quickly corrected himself: “She secretly wore your clothes to school, trying to recover her memories by visiting places she remembers.”

The person on the other end of the phone visibly relaxed, followed by a hesitant question: "So, you mean..."

Looking at the enormous Yukinoshita, who was so close to him, her face almost touching his, trying to eavesdrop on her daughter's phone call, the boy sighed.

I've been sighing more and more lately; this will make me age faster.

In the end, Li Wei made up his mind.

"Let me take her for a walk. Keeping the patient cooped up at home might not be a good thing. There might be some unexpected benefits."

"Yay—!" Yoko, who looked to be in her thirties but was actually thirteen, showed a joyful expression.

This girl is so cute, it's a pity she's already a mother of two.

“In that case, I’ll leave my mother to you.” On the other end of the phone, Yukino Yukinoshita covered her head and said, “Remember to send my mother back intact after this is over.”

"No problem." What more or less could it possibly be?

However, the gatekeeper of his own school is a typical stubborn person, and there was a parent-teacher meeting at the school before. Teachers and students must know the super-sized Yukinoshita. Wearing only a school uniform like this, they probably wouldn't even believe it.

So, looking at the eager Yukinoshita Yoko in front of him, Li Wei made a plan.

……

"Has the person been sent back yet?"

Five minutes later, the guard in the security booth looked Li Wei up and down, who was all alone, and said, "Be careful next time, you idiot. Don't cause trouble on campus if you have a woman outside of school, or I'll tell the principal."

"I know, I'll be more careful next time." Too lazy to dwell on whether she was his woman or not, Li Wei casually replied and walked into the school gate.

The gatekeeper's gaze remained fixed on the boy.

For some reason, she always felt that the other person was different from usual, that something was slightly off, but she couldn't quite put her finger on what was wrong with her.

It seems... I'm walking much slower than usual?

"It's probably because I've been staying up too late."

The pink-haired gatekeeper shook his head, comforting himself, "Let's wait for Kulizarid to come home and get some rest early tonight."

Chapter 50 The Last Hassan's Stealth Skills Are Above Mine

"boom!"

"Ah, sorry."

In the school corridor, Hiratsuka Shizuka, whose temper had been getting increasingly bad lately, felt like she bumped into something strange and instinctively apologized.

Because I was walking very fast, and the impact happened to be on my chest, I seemed to hear a strange echo of "DUANG~".

But when she looked up, she found that the only person standing beside her was the familiar handsome young man, Li Wei. There was no one who matched her expectations in terms of softness and physique.

"Strange, I clearly bumped into something just now!" the older, marriage-hungry female teacher muttered to herself in confusion.

Could it be that because she couldn't sleep last night, she went to Li Wei's bed and stayed up for half the night, leaving her own scent all over the bed, causing hallucinations due to lack of sleep?

"Hiratsuka-nee, what happened?" The boy next to her took her hand with concern and skillfully took her pulse.

How strange. Hiratsuka-nee's pulse indicates that she hasn't been resting well lately, she's been working very hard, and she's also slightly dehydrated... Did she do some strenuous exercise last night?

The training is really rigorous. Mr. Bangu must be very pleased to know that his child is working so hard.

"Uh, I'm fine!"

Hiratsuka Shizuka felt her blood pressure suddenly rise and her heart race as her hand was held; the boy in front of her seemed even more handsome.

No, this is still school, I have to control myself!

"Anyway, I won't ask you why you took the day off. Just remember to come to my house next time." In her haste, Xiao Jing said a few words, then, as if feeling guilty, she disappeared in a flash.

That's why she didn't notice that Li Wei was taking her pulse with his left hand today, instead of his usual right hand—although, given her carefree nature, it would have been hard for her to notice even if she wasn't feeling guilty.

At this moment, the boy's right hand was tightly holding Lady Yukinoshita's hand, and his palms were even sweating due to nervousness, making the area where the two were in contact sticky.

[Stealth] is one of the "Merlin Magic" techniques that "Mr. Merlin" taught him, and Li Wei has mastered it very well.

He has now taken his skills to a new level, learning to lead others in stealth while remaining in a normal state. The downside is that his movement speed will still be slower as always.

In short, as long as Li Wei and Yangzi don't let go, the stealth state won't be lifted, and no one else can see Yangzi.

This way, the boy could happily take her around and enjoy the scenery of the campus without worrying about being discovered.

Of course, this very useful stealth technique is not entirely undetectable; at least under certain conditions, it can be countered.

The first type is someone who has also practiced "Merlin Magic"; the second type is someone whose strength far surpasses Li Wei's; and the third type is someone with exceptionally strong perception. Meeting any of these three criteria would make it easy to detect Yoko.

But well... Li Wei doesn't think such people exist in schools.

In addition, people in stealth mode still have a physical form, and they can still sense physical contact with others.

Just like before, Hiratsuka walked up casually and bumped right into the enormous Yukinoshita, who was slowed down and couldn't dodge in time. Because they were about the same height, the point of impact was at the most prominent part of their upper bodies, causing a very exciting surge of energy.

"Let's move on."

Relieved, the boy pulled the older girl beside him and said, "Hold my hand tightly and don't let go."

"Mm." The enormous Yukinoshita nodded seriously, gripping the boy's hand even tighter, as if it were the most precious treasure in the world.

The two wandered around the various buildings of the school, like Alice and the White Rabbit in Wonderland, reminiscing every now and then to see if they could recall anything.

Unfortunately, most of the buildings were completely unfamiliar to the older sister.

That's quite normal. She attended the affiliated junior high school over twenty years ago. While Baihuang Academy was a high-ranking school back then, it was nothing compared to its current scale; two-thirds of the school's area was later expansions. If they were to continue their visit at a stealthy pace, they probably wouldn't finish by the time school ended in the evening.

"Let's take a break, we've been walking for a long time."

Before they knew it, it was lunchtime. The boy led the older girl to a quiet, secluded spot and offered her a lunchbox and drinks that he had bought on the way to the school convenience store.

“Hmm.” The oversized Yukinoshita naturally wouldn’t object.

And so, for the first time since morning, the two loosened their tightly clasped hands. Because of the hot weather, there was even a slight sticky sound when they separated, making them both inexplicably awkward.
