The Defeated Saintess Is On A Journey To Tame The Evil God Book 01 Chapter 02.09 - Little Trick

After a shower, Xing Mo lay on the bed, a dull look in her eyes.

In the end, the lass drained her knowledge...

A few minutes ago, on the grounds that she was wet and didn't know how to operate the shower, Aurora pulled Xing Mo into the bathroom, then drained Xing Mo.

The feeling of her knowledge being drained... well... in fact, drained wasn't quite accurate. It was more like it was "read". After all, Xing Mo didn't lose the knowledge.

The feeling was analogous to being a can, then someone forcibly prying open the can, taking out its contents, throwing them into a pan, stir-frying them, and then putting them back into the can.

It was a fantastic experience of being hollowed out and then filled. This was where the can analogy came from.

"Waah~ I'm all tired... Young Saintess... I learned a lot today... next time I take a shower, I'll adjust the water's temperature myself~"

Aurora, wearing a nightgown, jumped into bed, climbed on top of Xing Mo, and held her tightly, as if she were a pillow.

Xing Mo, lacking the strength to resist, simply lay there and didn't resist.

"By the way, that senior of yours seems to care about you a lot. I thought she was a petty thief at first. If you hadn't stopped me, I would have eaten her." Aurora uttered.

"Senior Alice is a Bellkeeper like me. If you were to eat her, you would be locked on within ten minutes. At that time, Archangel Saint Auroth may have directly descended."

Upon hearing this, Aurora's lips curved into a slight smile that was quickly restrained: "I'm not scared anymore~ Even if they descend, they will quickly discover that half of their faith force belongs to me now. They won't be a match for me at all~"

"You're really amazing." Xing Mo uttered perfunctorily.

"Hey, that lacked sincerity. Can you tell me about your senior?" Aurora wriggled while hugging Xing Mo, "Do you like her?"

Xing Mo looked dumbfoundedly at the nosy Aurora and then sighed: "No way. Senior and I do have a good relationship, and she often takes care of me, but there's no way she would like me."

"Why do you say that?" Aurora tilted her head.

After a moment of silence, Xing Mo coughed lightly and said: "Because Senior... like girls..."

The room suddenly submerged into silence. After a long time, Aurora poked the "pillow" in her arms and murmured: "But aren't you a girl now, Young Saintess?"

"Senior doesn't know... wait a moment! Just because I'm a girl doesn't mean Senior will like me! She's like my older sister, and I'm like her younger brother, that's all!" Xing Mo's strength, which had dried up, welled up again.

"Younger sister." Aurora pointed out.

"N, no! After our contract is concluded, you have to turn me back." Xing Mo sighed.

To be frank, Xing Mo liked girls. Although she was rather antisocial, but she appreciated the female form.

But, becoming a girl was a bit... too shameful!

Unsurprisingly, Xing Mo wanted to change back.

Aurora tilted her head in response: "I think I never said I would turn you back."

"Young Ancestor, can you stop playing with me?" Xing Mo's mouth twitched, "What's the point of turning me into a girl? Can't a boy serve you just as well?"

"Girls are fragrant and soft. I like fragrant and soft things." Aurora smiled brightly.

"Then after our contract is concluded, turn me back. In any case, when that time comes, we won't have any further dealings with each other." Xing Mo nodded.

What she didn't see was that the light in Aurora's eyes dimmed for a moment, and then quickly became a crafty hue again: "Oh~ We'll see when the time comes~"

"No... promise me now! Promise..."

Before Xing Mo could finish speaking, a racket suddenly came from the bedroom's window. Her mind jolted.

In order to prevent anyone outside from seeing the lights in the apartment, Xing Mo used some minor magic trick, that theoretically shouldn't be noticed.

Under this premise, there was only one thing that would make a racquet outside the window—

"Your little courier seems to have returned, Young Saintess~"

Aurora sat up and waved her hand, and the window opened. A white dove flew in and tossed an envelope at Xing Mo's face.

Oh no... it's Instructor's reply! Xing Mo shouted inwardly.

Aurora picked up the envelope victoriously and showed a splendid smile: "Let's see if our young Saintess is honest~ if she's a bad child who secretly divulged information... or..."

Aurora opened the envelope, and two rolled up parchments fell out.

She opened a parchment and read it in front of Xing Mo, and then let out a dull sigh: "Wow... what a letdown..."

Xing Mo picked up the other parchment, quickly opened it, and scanned its contents with her eyes: "Dear Ms. Xing Sheng, your credentials have been verified by the Citadel. You are hereby invited to take the entrance test on the enrollment day, at..."

As she read, Xing Mo breathed a sigh of relief—the instructor clearly grasped her situation and thus replied with two admission letters to serve as a cover for her.

As expected of Instructor, he perfectly understood the excuse I made up. That's great.

Xing Mo rolled up the admission letter and threw it on the bedside cabinet, and then nonchalantly admired Aurora's deflated expression.

This little Evil God thought she could get the best of me, but she miscalculated!

At this moment, Aurora frowned and pursed her lips, looking like a girl who had done something wrong.

Xing Mo was about to say something, when Aurora spoke up first: "What sort of name is Xing Yu... Why did you give me such a vulgar name?"

"Your identity is that of my younger sister, so you have to put on an act." Xing Mo curled her lips.

"It's unpleasant. Didn't we agree on a Fallouan setting? Then why isn't it something like Alice Dorian? Why did you use a Yanxian name?!" Aurora made a fuss.

"Because orthodox Fallouan surnames are too easy to trace. When the empire fell, the Fallouan emperor was sent to the guillotine. Our setting is that of imperialist orphans. Under these circumstances, it's reasonable to use a half Yanxian bloodline as cover. We won't be suspected." Xing Mo calmly explained her reasoning.

"Oh." Aurora buried her head in Xing Mo's chest.

The lass seemed a bit dejected, um... was it because the name sounded unpleasant?

Or was there another reason?

Xing Mo hesitated for a moment, then reached out and stroked the back of Aurora's head.

The little lass moved like a cat, and her breathing gradually pacified.

She unexpectedly fell asleep like this.

…

Xing Mo looked at Aurora lying on top of her, unsure of what to think.

At times she looked as harmless as a woodland critter, at other times she looked like a wicked God, ready to blow up the entire Northern District at any moment.

Xing Mo took a deep breath and then exhaled, closed her eyes, and thought about the upcoming enrollment day.

In summary, her next goal was to infiltrate the magic academy and then establish contact with her instructor.

Some things didn't belong on earth. The stars was where she belonged.
