Shuangyu seemed to have an idea, and with great effort, she dragged Clara and Kamui together.
But sometimes, staying awake isn’t a good thing.
Although Shuangyu didn’t know, Clara had actually been awake the whole time.
Clara’s awareness made this prank-like revenge even more effective.
Shuangyu wasn’t satisfied with simply taking lives. Death had become somewhat cheap in this era; what she wanted was a more perverse revenge that suited her personal tastes…
What tastes?
Well, that was also the reason all the executives of the Fourth Calamity were female.
Besides, the little witch wasn’t injured at all; the sleeve of her clothes was just tied in a knot, which wasn’t enough to make her angry.
To complete this prank, the President worked hard to lay Clara flat on the ground and kicked the precious relic aside. After wiping her sweat, she pressed Kamui and Clara together face to face, stacking them.
In the frozen time, she didn’t really care about her appearance.
After all, she never imagined that anyone could observe her every move within her lonely time domain.
As for Kamui, her appearance at the moment was somewhat disheveled.
Her battlesuit had already been torn to shreds in the fight against the shadow soldiers—in common terms, battle damage. Besides the fact that her dress skirt had become a miniskirt, much of her skin was exposed.
Clara felt like she was being forced to commit a crime.
‘What, what exactly is she trying to do?!’
‘To press against Clara like this…’
Compared to Clara’s panic, Nyx simply answered lightly:
【She said this is for you… “gift.”】
‘Do I need to thank her?!’
But this wasn’t over.
Shuangyu continued adjusting the angles of Clara and Kamui’s heads, making their faces touch, lips to lips, and finally gently pressed them together.
Usually, such an action would be called a “kiss.”
But right now, it could only be called putting “lips to lips.”
Clara was fully conscious.
She found it hard to breathe.
Although in the frozen time, breathing wasn’t necessary, she still felt her mind go blank.
‘Why?!!!’
She couldn’t understand the Fourth Calamity President’s reason for doing this.
‘Is this revenge?’
Filled with shame but unable to express it, she could do nothing but scream internally.
Most importantly, she didn’t know how Kamui would treat her after the frozen time resumed.
‘Oh no, would she be killed by her?’
‘Is this murder by proxy?’
‘How malicious.’
‘As expected of the leader of an evil organization, their skill at doing bad things is indeed different from ordinary mutants.’
‘Although Kamui usually has a sharp tongue, her lips are soft.’
‘But… no matter how violent she usually is, she’s still a girl, being treated like this by me…’
Nyx interrupted Clara’s thoughts.
【Reminder, you are also a girl now.】
‘But I’m actually a man!’
【As long as you don’t say anything, maybe later she’ll think she took advantage of you.】
‘Even if I don’t say it, I know it in my heart!’
【Do you think, after experiencing something like this, you still have room to confess?】
Clara knew Nyx was right.
From now on, the secret of her identity had to be kept from Kamui until death.
【No need to feel guilty; everyone has a secret or two.】
As Nyx said this, Shuangyu was already carrying the little witch Medusa on her shoulder, stepping on air stairs toward the wormhole, preparing to leave.
Click, click, click.
The President’s high heels sounded a countdown like a death knell.
Lying on her back, Clara’s entire view was blocked by Kamui’s face.
But she knew.
That time was coming.
Time was about to flow.
As Shuangyu stepped into the wormhole, the blue domain filter covering the entire hangar was also withdrawn.
Although Clara remained motionless, Kamui had been breathing when time froze. The moment time resumed, because her mouth was blocked, Kamui’s breath sprayed onto Clara’s face.
“Um?!”
She widened her eyes and scrambled off Clara in panic.
In her haste, she sat up supporting herself with her hands, but happened to press on Clara’s thin chest, then quickly recoiled.
“This is…”
With her clothes disheveled, Kamui raised a hand to wipe her mouth, but looked down to see the infinitely shy squid loli beneath her, her cheeks faintly glowing red.
“What is this thing, why is it so cute?!”
Bam——
Clara’s cuteness seemed to cause an explosion in Kamui’s mind, and she even forgot to think about why things had turned out this way…
For Kamui, it was just a moment of contact, and the other party was a girl; coupled with her own carefree personality, it was more confusing than embarrassing.
But seeing Clara half-covering her mouth with a sleeve that only revealed her fingers, although Kamui herself was also baffled, she still felt…
“Sorry, I didn’t mean it.”
She felt she should apologize.
The taste of the little cutie’s mouth still lingered on her lips.
Because Clara usually maintained a light diet, her mouth was very clean, and there was even a… protein fragrance?
Clara shook her head and answered in a voice smaller than a mosquito’s wings:
“I know, this must be the work of that woman just now…”
In the frozen time, Kamui had no awareness of the fact that she had actually been conscious the whole time.
She only felt that her time seemed to be cut into pieces, constantly manipulated like a marionette, and she was completely unaware of the entire process.
She could only keep entering the “result,” being toyed with by that blue-haired little girl.
To this, Clara replied:
“It seems… it’s the president of the ‘Fourth Calamity,’ she has the ability to freeze time.”
“President?”
Clara looked at the relic beside her, then continued:
“Also, she took her own witch away.”
The Big Boss of the Fourth Calamity personally came to save a witch?
It seems just like Alice said, the Fourth Calamity has recruited the witches of the Dark Domain.
“Then why didn’t she kill us while she was at it?”
Kamui asked again.
Although she wasn’t afraid, she didn’t think she stood any chance against the head of a large organization. Killing her and Clara would have been easy for the other party, let alone taking the relic.
“I don’t know.”
Clara answered like this, but still turned her head and secretly wiped her mouth.
“But, but this is the Association Headquarters, she must have some scruples, right? And if she really took the relic, the Fourth Calamity would also have trouble…”
Clara said this, but even she found it hard to convince herself.
After all, that evil organization was famously unafraid of trouble; in fact, they themselves were one of the biggest troubles in Central City.
“Anyway, we’ve managed to survive.”
Kamui said so.
Clara still whispered:
“Um… can, can I get up first?”
Miss Kamui was still sitting on Clara’s stomach.
Moreover, in that rather exposed state of battle damage.
