Liang Lai, lost in her dream, had no awareness of what was happening, her eyes tightly shut and her lips pressed into a straight line.
Asterys unhurriedly undid Liang Lai’s collar.
Delucia’s face was instantly filled with intoxicated delight as she leaned in, taking deep breaths of the air around Liang Lai.
She opened her mouth and lightly bit Liang Lai’s neck, but didn’t dare use much force, nor leave any marks.
Asterys, just like her younger sister, crouched over her.
Delucia’s body had completely merged into Asterys’ shadow, once again becoming that dark, tentacle-like thing.
She twisted and writhed, but the figure that emerged from the shadow was no longer the adorable little white-haired girl, but a thick, black, tentacle-like “line.”
“This is really strange, but it’s fun too, isn’t it?”
Asterys dotingly stroked the tip of her sister’s “tentacle.”
Then, the shadow-transformed Delucia crawled over inch by inch, wrapping around Liang Lai in circle after circle.
Starting from her ankles, winding upward bit by bit, finally binding Liang Lai’s waist and abdomen, with a tendency to go even higher.
In her sleep, Liang Lai only felt it was getting harder and harder to breathe, as if she were drowning.
In reality, her body was already wrapped up to her chest by Delucia, and the shadow was still climbing higher.
Asterys kissed the corner of Liang Lai’s lips, her own lips curling into a strange arc.
Watching Liang Lai gasp for breath, she showed a trace of heartache, but even more excitement.
“A Saintess as vulnerable as this is just too lovable!”
Through her sister’s Shadow Transformation, she leaned over, pressing her ear to Liang Lai’s chest, feeling the strong, powerful beating of her heart.
Delucia’s “Shadow Transformation” had already wrapped around Liang Lai’s neck.
At this moment, Liang Lai, unable to catch her breath at all, opened her mouth even wider; Asterys could even see her throat.
Now…
It was just like eating squid.
“Ugh!”
Even asleep, Liang Lai could feel the discomfort in her throat.
The smile on Asterys’ face grew more and more deranged, her cheeks flushed redder and redder.
She stroked her sister’s “Shadow Transformation” again and again.
“Did you see that? Did you see that…”
But before she could finish her sentence—
“What are you doing?!”
A voice exploded like thunder, and both Asterys and Delucia’s bodies trembled violently at the same time.
Delucia, in her Shadow Transformation, instantly withdrew, hiding completely within her sister’s shadow.
Asterys flipped off Liang Lai in one swift motion, immediately becoming alert as she looked toward the door.
“Oh, so it really is you.”
Asterys looked displeased, but not overly agitated.
After all, she and Delucia hadn’t planned to go too far tonight; they just wanted to get a bit closer to Liang Lai.
Even without Dolosa’s arrival, they would’ve just played around for a while longer and then stopped.
Dolosa could hardly believe what she’d just seen.
That scene… it was like a net, tightly ensnaring her, leaving a deep psychological shadow.
She’d always thought of herself as the bad kid, but it turned out Asterys and Delucia were the real troublemakers! No, they… they were truly outrageous!
“What were you two just doing?!”
Dolosa’s voice trembled, her whole body shaking, and even the finger she pointed at Asterys and Delucia quivered.
Asterys just smiled, saying nothing.
Delucia had already emerged from her sister’s shadow by now.
She draped her arm over Asterys’ shoulder, glaring menacingly at the golden-haired girl at the door.
“We weren’t doing anything. You must’ve seen it wrong, right?” Delucia shrugged.
“Did you have a nightmare? Dream that we were bullying you, and now you’re here to complain that we were picking on you? Or are you going to call us bad kids or something?”
She rattled off a long string of words, catching Dolosa completely off guard. She never expected these two would shamelessly refuse to admit what they’d done.
“This time, I clearly saw it! What you two were doing to Liang Lai!”
Dolosa took a deep breath, trying to calm herself, her voice finally a little steadier.
She looked at the twin sisters in front of her with disgust, hurried over to the bed, glanced at Liang Lai, and only let out a sigh of relief when she saw that Liang Lai was sleeping peacefully and unharmed.
Asterys still didn’t speak. She smiled and beckoned Dolosa over, as if inviting her closer. Dolosa didn’t understand, watching her warily.
Delucia glanced at her sister, then at Dolosa, and then smiled.
“My sister means, since you saw everything, what exactly are you trying to say?”
She stepped closer to Dolosa, the Six-Pointed Star Pupils in her eyes flashing with madness and danger.
“Are you planning to wait for Mother to wake up and tell on us? Or are you going to wake her up right now so we can all confront each other? Or maybe…”
Delucia was already right in front of Dolosa, their noses nearly touching. Dolosa saw the green Six-Pointed Stars in the girl’s eyes shining brightly.
“Do you want to join us?”
Boom!
A thunderclap exploded.
Dolosa was stunned by the question, inside and out.
She stared blankly at the twin sisters before her, then stiffly and mechanically lowered her head to look at Liang Lai, whose face was flushed, lying on the bed with her hair and clothes a little messy.
Huh?
Join?
Join them?
Join them to do what?
Dolosa’s mind was a complete mess. She was dazed, but saw that Asterys was also closing in on her.
“So, you’re not really thinking of joining us, are you?”
Her voice was gentler than Delucia’s, almost bewitching.
“Dolosa, from the very start, you’ve always been on guard against us~ We never said we wanted to take Mother all for ourselves. What we meant was, we could share her with you~ We want to join you and Mother too~”
It was the first time she’d spoken such a long line, walking up to Dolosa and standing shoulder to shoulder with Delucia.
The twin sisters stood hand in hand, their heads tilted in opposite directions, staring intently at the golden-haired girl before them.
“Or is it… Dolosa, could it be that your feelings for Liang Lai are really just pure gratitude and familial affection?” the two girls said in unison.
