Another World Witch Training Manual

055, Further

When Eve woke up, she found herself lying squarely on the soft, large bed of the Rust Hotel, domineeringly occupying the very center.

The blanket was neatly made, showing that she had been carefully taken care of after losing consciousness before falling into a coma.

The coarse cloth clothes used to impersonate a slave elf had been replaced with Sinlai's large inner garment.

Although they didn't fit, they were among the few clothes available for her to wear while she was unconscious.

Eve numbly raised her hand and rubbed her eyes.

With a slight shift of her gaze, she could see a young man slumped over the bed, exuding a listless aura. Xin Lai's body swayed slightly, her face buried in her arms.

"..."

All she could remember was the pain from the blockage of magic; she knew nothing about what happened after she fell into a coma.

But judging from the current situation, it seems that Xinlai saved her again, barring any unforeseen circumstances.

Eve gazed at Xinlai in a daze, a hint of tenderness reflecting in her purple pupils.

He twitched his left hand, as if he wanted to lift it up and touch the young man's hair.

However, perhaps because she had been too restless during her coma, making Xinlai much more wary, with just a slight twitch of her finger, Xinlai raised her head with dark circles under her eyes and looked at her wearily.

Their eyes met, and Eve was taken aback. She then lowered her head, feeling embarrassed to look at him.

"call……"

Xinlai breathed a sigh of relief; Eve had finally woken up.

The truth was indeed almost exactly as she had guessed.

During her coma, Eve's magic was like a lurking beast ready to hunt, occasionally going berserk, forcing Sinley to get up and kiss her deeply again and again, even when he was resting in the middle of the night.

He kissed him until the skin on his lips turned white.

I had no interest in counting how many times we had kissed.

"Awake? Feeling better?"

Xinlai stood up, took Eve's pale, stiff, and somewhat cold little hand, and checked her magic power, which was much more stable than before.

Eve looked at his concerned expression and didn't notice him holding her hand. She simply let him gently cup it in his palm, as if he were warming her.

"Your face..."

The moment Xinlai looked up, Eve saw a band-aid on his handsome but somewhat haggard face.

Xinlai smiled bitterly.

"Ha... As my personal maid, you not only failed to protect me, but you also scratched my face." He shook his head.

"Are you planning to work for me for the rest of your life?"

Looking at his shrewd yet aggrieved expression, Eve was momentarily reluctant to expose him:

Even with just a single healing spell, applied once a day, this injury should have healed long ago.

Why would I need to put on a band-aid? It's just a little trick to gain her sympathy.

But ironically... this trick actually worked on her.

Eve wasn't unaware of what witchhood meant; she had heard of a witch who, during her witchhood, destroyed a city of 300,000 people.

And now, the city of Guna is still bustling with activity, and she lies unharmed beside Xinlai.

This proves that Sin Lai must have done everything in her power to resolve everything for her.

For this reason alone, Eve felt she owed him too much, and she would accept it even if she had to stay by his side for the rest of her life.

What touched her even more was that Xinlai was more serious than ever when she was at her most vulnerable.

That inexplicable earnestness fascinated her.

"Dream on."

Eve gave a soft hum, shyly rejecting his question, but pulled her hand away from his palm and instead moved closer to his cheek.

Xinlai was stunned for a moment, looking at her with suspicion, "What are you going to do? You didn't awaken some special attribute after you turned into a witch, did you...?"

Before she finished speaking, Eve frowned slightly and activated her magic, trying to heal the scratches she had made on his face.

"I...don't want to owe you anything..."

She spoke with difficulty, her hands trembling slightly. Green healing magic quickly lit up in her palm, but vanished in an instant.

"ah--"

Eve's heart clenched painfully, and the hand she had just raised fell limply onto the soft blankets. She curled up in agony.

"..."

Xinlai quickly got up, skillfully climbed onto the bed, and held her shoulders with both hands.

"What...what are you doing...?"

"Get away..."

At this moment, magic was no longer a tool to prove her talent for Eve, but a slow poison that could kill her at any time.

Even the most basic second-circle healing spell almost made her faint again from the pain.

"You're so stubborn," Xinlai said, gently pressing on Eve's chest. This was something he had been researching for the past two days, and it seemed to help relieve the pain.

At the same time, Xinlai sighed helplessly, "Even in this situation, we're still worrying about this and that."

Two lines of tears, tinged with pain and helplessness, slid down Eve's cheeks.

She couldn't understand why fate was treating her this way...

"Ugh—"

However, in that moment of grief, Xinlai leaned down and kissed her without hesitation.

Eve's pupils dilated suddenly, and she instinctively tried to push him away, but no matter her physical condition or strength, she was no match for Xinlai at this moment.

She had thought Xinlai would remain proper, but who knew that as soon as she woke up, he would kiss her so wantonly...

It's hard to imagine what he did to himself while he was in a coma!

The air was filled with a sense of ambiguity and tenderness.

Eve, who had been struggling slightly, gradually stopped moving her long legs under the covers, allowing Xinlai to kiss her.

But a look of relaxation and surprise slowly appeared on her face.

Why?

Why is the pain in my body slowly disappearing under his kisses? Why…doesn't she want to push him away…?

Eve could clearly feel the stagnant magic power within her body being slowly channeled out, the excess magic power flowing wildly down her lips and teeth towards Xinlai, while Xinlai felt no discomfort whatsoever.

The sudden feeling of relaxation made her involuntarily hum softly. A flush crept up her neck and cheeks, making her look much more vibrant.

Her eyes, slightly veiled by tears, gazed at the man so close to her with a mixture of confusion, tenderness, and boundless charm.

Two hands that were originally meant to push him away have somehow ended up on his lower back, their fingers gripping his clothes tightly, creating fine wrinkles.

"Well……"

"No...no..."

"Get up... I... I'm all better..."

"Ugh... I can't breathe..."

……

"Huff... huff..."

Eve's long purple hair was scattered on the pillow, and her chest heaved violently with her breathing.

She stared blankly at the ceiling, her mind a jumble of thoughts, unable to process what had just happened.

Sin Lai kissed her, and it actually relieved the magic buildup?

She turned her head shyly, glanced at Xinlai sitting on the edge of the bed rubbing the red spot on her side where she had been pinched, and then lowered her head again, blushing.

hateful……

An indescribable feeling quickly welled up in her heart, making her restless and anxious.

Her hands unconsciously fiddled with the strands of hair around her ears, twirling them on her fingers and then gently letting them go, repeating this process over and over again.

Finally, Eve could no longer bear the silence in the room and Xinlai's silence.

She turned and glared at Xinlai, nervously biting her lower lip, closing her eyes and taking a few deep breaths. Her whole body tensed up, but she suddenly relaxed the moment she opened her mouth:

"Why...why can you kiss me...?"

"Have you been treating me like this for the past few days?"
