Adele felt more and more in her heart that the Vengeance Witch was unreliable, and she wanted to cry but had no tears.

Now, she could only treat this as a solo survival mission.

Fortunately, after her efforts, Vicky didn’t force her to drink the black tea that might have been spiked with something strange.

However, Vice President Vicky’s gaze towards Adele became filled with an indescribable meaning.

She was clearly starting to doubt the authenticity of Adele’s “innocence.”

Please, Adele didn’t even smoke, how could she be innocent!

But they both exercised restraint, avoiding tearing down the facade and making things too ugly.

 

Besides, Adele had already come to the Black Feather Society, they believed she couldn’t pull off any tricks.

“It’s my poor hospitality, I didn’t check beforehand that Miss Adele doesn’t drink black tea.”

Vicky saved some face for Adele.

“But it doesn’t matter, milk tea, coffee, green tea, jasmine tea, there’s always a drink that Miss Adele will like. I’ll be well prepared next time.”

“I’ll take my leave now, Miss Adele.”

“…Okay, goodbye, President Vicky.”

Would flattery still work at this time?

 

Adele had heard that vice presidents usually liked to be called presidents?

It felt like she had been marked by Vicky…

But actually, as long as Adele kept one thing in mind, after safely leaving the Black Feather Society this time, she would never come back.

That was, if she could actually leave the Black Feather Society safely!

She didn’t know if Edith was deliberately testing her patience, but after Vicky left, Edith came after a while, appearing gracefully.

The first thing Edith did upon entering the conference room was to lock the door from the inside.

The two “clicks” made Adele’s eyelids and heart jump.

 

Damn, this person wasn’t even trying to hide it!

She even put on a “three visits to the thatched cottage” act outside, and now that Adele was on her turf, she wasn’t even pretending!?

Li Lige! Save me!

Edith’s intentions were too obvious!

So obvious that even if Adele wasn’t a naive little white flower, she should have been a little wary.

But unfortunately, her current role was precisely that of a naive little white flower!

“Sorry to keep you waiting, Miss Adele.”

 

Edith’s tone was enthusiastic, perhaps she still wanted to play a hypocritical game with Adele.

Then, when Adele truly believed her lies, she would tear off her mask and enjoy Adele’s despair upon seeing her true face.

Perhaps because they were both naturally good at acting, Adele could almost see through Edith’s purpose at a glance.

But in this situation…

Oh my god, apart from continuing to act along with Edith, delaying until Li Lige came online, and avoiding being raped, Adele had no other choice.

“I-it’s okay, Miss Vicky is a very nice person, she chatted with me for a while…”

The most eye-catching thing in the conference room was the round table in the middle and the cushioned chairs surrounding it.

 

Adele was sitting on a chair near the window on the right side.

Logically speaking, Edith should be sitting at her chairman’s seat, that way, she would be far enough away from Adele for Adele to have time to react.

But she gave up her usual position and instead came to sit beside Adele, acting very familiar.

As if their relationship was naturally close.

At the same time, Edith’s gaze also fell on the cup of black tea in front of Adele, which was still steaming slightly.

“It seems that Miss Adele hasn’t touched the tea, is it not to your liking?”

Edith asked, her expression unchanged.

 

“I’ll tell the others to pay attention next time.”

“N-no… you don’t have to be so polite.”

“Why not? I’m sincere towards Miss Adele.”

As she spoke, Edith moved closer to Adele.

 

Her hand rested on the chair, and the two chairs were so close together that their fingers almost touched.

Or rather… they were already touching!

A tingling sensation spread from her fingertips to Adele’s heart.

 

Making the hairs on her back stand on end.

“P-please don’t do this, President Edith…”

“Don’t do what?”

“We’re just having a normal conversation. Since Adele came to me, it means you’ve accepted to join the Black Feather Society, right?”

Edith pressed on.

“This is our Black Feather Society’s initiation ceremony for new members, haven’t you heard of it?”

“…N-no.”

 

Adele didn’t dare to directly say that she wasn’t here to join at all, that would only make Edith think that she was playing with her, and Edith’s patience would wear thin.

When her patience completely disappeared, Adele thought that she would be devoured.

Edith smiled playfully.

“If you haven’t, then it’s just the right time for your big sister to teach you~”

“Don’t worry, it’s very enjoyable. It can make you forget all your worries and pain…”

“What Hermione and Dorothy can’t give you… I can give you~”

Edith had unknowingly leaned in close to Adele, the black veil swaying gently with her movements.

 

Adele was transfixed by her naked, undisguised gaze.

She forgot to breathe, forgot to struggle, or maybe she didn’t dare, didn’t have the strength.

 

One of Adele’s small hands was tightly gripped by Edith.

Instead of warmth, it felt ice-cold.

As if Edith could hurt her with just a little force.

“No… don’t…”

Adele was almost in despair at this moment, only able to utter a refusal instinctively, unable to make any other sound.

 

But this refusal seemed to please Edith even more.

“It’s a pity, it’s not up to you to say no now.”

“If you had drunk that black tea, maybe I would have been gentler today, making you mistake it for just a bad dream.”

“But now, I’m more interested in seeing you struggle desperately, seeing you add more fun to this~”

It seemed that Edith was doing the same thing as Amaterasu Kuro and Tsukimi Shiro.

But the outcome might be completely different.

She would get away with it, and Adele would become one of those voiceless victims.

 

Firstly, she had never forced Adele to join the Black Feather Society.

Since Adele had willingly jumped into the den of evil, then everything that happened after that had nothing to do with Edith.

Secondly, she wasn’t as stupid as the twins. The twins used brute force and didn’t care about Adele’s feelings.

But Edith cared, she cared in a hypocritical way.

She was very good at bullying and manipulating pure little girls like Adele.

She was also confident that after Adele experienced the pleasure, she would become completely dependent on her.

If the feeling of pleasure alone couldn’t make Adele fall, she also had other ways, some unspeakable methods, to make Adele obey her every word~

 

 

That’s why she dared to be so unscrupulous, in this territory that belonged to her.

In front of Adele, who was already like a trapped little animal.

“One wrong step can lead to a lifetime of regret,” this was Adele’s current situation.

Edith didn’t want to explore why Adele suddenly changed her mind after half a day.

But what remained unchanged was that Adele would become a puppet she manipulated, a pawn or a sharp blade she placed between Hermione and Dorothy.

Edith was very ambitious, otherwise, she wouldn’t have gathered the originally scattered vampire students and formed the so-called Black Feather Society.

The Black Feather Society was her “brotherhood,” which would give her great help when she left the academy and made a name for herself in the vampire world, becoming a force to be reckoned with.

 

In fact, in the later part of the book, she did become an important boss in the vampire world.

And the role of a boss was obvious, wasn’t it to be defeated by the protagonist for revenge?

Edith abused the protagonist in the early stages, and was then abused by the protagonist as a stepping stone in the later stages.

But back to reality – Adele didn’t even want to be abused by her in the early stages!

If anyone tried to entice Adele with promises of “bitter first, sweet later,” Adele would only reply – Sweet your ass!

Why should she suffer!

Couldn’t it be sweet from beginning to end!

 

She was already regretting it to death.

She thought to herself that she shouldn’t have trusted the evil of the Vengeance Witch, Li Lige, that experience pack!

Did that experience pack peek at the script?

Was she planning to kill her, the protagonist, in advance and then take her place?

 

Adele never hesitated to attribute the worst intentions to people.

And it was at this critical moment, a sentence suddenly popped up in Adele’s mind.

The voice was also strangely familiar, it was clearly Li Lige’s!

 

• “Little girl, do you understand the principle of ‘luring the tiger out of the mountains’?”

• “Just because I was a little late, I’ve become your target of revenge too?”

The Vengeance Witch could sense the resentment in other people’s hearts, and obviously, Adele’s resentment towards Li Lige was quite deep at this moment.

Of course it was deep, she was about to be raped! How could it not be deep!

• “This vengeful nature of yours… maybe you’re even more suitable to be the Vengeance Witch than I am.”

It was probably magic voice transmission. Adele couldn’t do this, she was too bad at using magic.

Besides, she couldn’t find Li Lige’s location either.

So Adele could only complain and get excited in her heart.

“You finally came online!”

But thanks to Li Lige’s sudden voice transmission, Adele’s nervousness and fear also subsided a lot.

 

Even though her current situation was still not optimistic, Edith was about to violate her, and had already tightly gripped her wrist, Adele’s heart was unprecedentedly calm.

And just as Edith was about to take the next step, the sudden change in the atmosphere made her feel a great sense of danger.

It was like a predator at the top of the food chain enjoying its prey…

And suddenly being targeted by an even higher-level predator!

Outside the conference room, the sky gradually darkened.

 

Like ink spilling, the whole world was enveloped in an unknown darkness.

Making one’s heart clench, filled with an ominous feeling.

 

It wasn’t the natural transition from day to night, but the unfolding of some kind of domain.

The conference room was enveloped, becoming a sealed chamber with no escape.

Edith’s whole body tensed up, her heart turning cold.

She didn’t even notice that Adele in front of her was starting to be swallowed by the darkness, as if sinking into a dark swamp.

From her arm to her body, finally only her face remained visible to Edith.

Then Adele completely fell into the boundless darkness, disappearing without a trace!

At first, Adele was also a little panicked, but when she realized that this darkness wouldn’t harm her, but was protecting her, separating her from a certain domain, she was no longer nervous, she even gave Edith a strange smile smugly.

(≖ᴗ≖)✧

Edith only felt her hand empty, Adele’s wrist disappearing.

Her first reaction was to hug Adele in front of her, wanting to take her as a hostage – but she missed.

Adele mocked her with her disappearance.

And from this point on, she watched as everything around her, the chairs, the solid wood round table, the bookshelves, and the curtains, were swallowed by the invisible ink-like darkness bit by bit.

The whole world became pitch black, and she was in it, as if she had descended into a hell where she was “neither in heaven nor on earth.”

Edith’s expression instantly turned gloomy, becoming terrifyingly scary.

If someone took off her veil, they would see an even more hideous and terrifying sight.

She knew she had been tricked, tricked by Adele.

 

As expected, any “change of heart” was “ulterior motive”!

Adele wasn’t as innocent as she appeared!

This reminded Edith of a story from the Eastern world.

“The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.”

Adele was the “cicada,” and she… was the “mantis” that had been tricked to death!

Then who was the oriole?

Who was it!?

But no matter who it was, being able to drag her into their domain without her knowing proved one thing: the other party was far stronger than her.

The next moment, Edith began her futile resistance.

With a soft shout, countless black feathers shot out at an incredible speed, like sharp flying knives, piercing the surrounding darkness.

Although the damage wasn’t high, the range was wide, it was a very powerful AoE skill.

In fact, Edith wasn’t aiming for damage, but to use these black feathers to probe the boundaries of the darkness.

Using your brain in battle could save a lot of energy.

But unfortunately, the difference in strength was clear.

Being completely overpowered would render all strategies useless.

Those black feathers were swallowed by the ink-like darkness, unable to detect any boundaries! It was as if it was endless…

At the same time, they also attacked Edith. Although she tried her best to resist, briefly delaying her fate of being swallowed, it was destined to be futile.

Apart from buying time, she couldn’t do anything, she couldn’t change the final outcome.

Edith was just the president of the Black Feather Society, her strength was far inferior to the current student council president.

Li Lige’s identity was even more significant, as the former student council president, it meant that she was the strongest among the students of that generation.

Not to mention that she had also undergone witchification.

There was a saying, “Whitewashing weakens you by seven points, blackening strengthens you threefold.” Maybe reality wasn’t that exaggerated, but it wasn’t unreasonable.

Li Lige, as someone who had experienced it firsthand, truly felt that she was much stronger now than she was in the past.

In the battle between the senior and the new generation, the situation was destined to be one-sided.

But Li Lige obviously didn’t plan to just defeat her opponent and teach Edith a lesson on Adele’s behalf.

That would only create a relentless enemy for Adele, with no benefit to herself.

Therefore, Li Lige had other considerations. She would wait until Edith was completely swallowed by her domain.

After that, it would be her time to perform.

And Adele would watch the show with her.

This was no longer the real world, but more like a separate space.

It felt magical, like floating in a huge transparent cube, with light blue magic power swimming around like nimble fish.

Within the cube, there was a separate sphere, slowly rotating.

Inside the sphere was a thick, ink-like darkness, imprisoned and restrained, wanting to find something to erode, spreading and swirling like crazy.

Perhaps this was the reason why Li Lige had remained calm and rational so far.

When the day came that she no longer suppressed the darkness in her heart, shattering that sphere, shattering this huge cube, it would be the time for the black flames of revenge to spread and burn the entire world.

Edith was trapped in the center of the sphere, unable to pierce the darkness, unable to escape.

She tried her best to resist the erosion of the darkness, but to no avail.

Adele and Li Lige were in the cube outside the sphere, observing the situation inside.

In Li Lige’s eyes, Edith was just struggling in vain, it was meaningless.

But in Adele’s eyes, Edith was indeed the president of the Black Feather Society, she had real skills, using her abilities one after another.

Those gorgeous moves made Adele drool.

So the “Black Feather” ability could be used to such an extreme.

Edith’s performance also made her fantasize about becoming that strong one day.

Thinking about it, she glanced at Li Lige beside her with a guilty conscience.

An experience pack… but so strong, sob, she couldn’t handle it.

So, Adele, who had just been saved by Li Lige and now saw her as an experience pack, was truly the scum of the earth.

But Adele also had her reasons.

If she hadn’t listened to Li Lige’s suggestion, she wouldn’t have dared to come to the Black Feather Society, this filthy place full of dirt.

And in order to lower Edith’s guard and give Li Lige time to deploy her domain, Adele had sacrificed her beauty, making Edith reveal her weakness.

This allowed Li Lige to successfully invade, leaving Edith with no chance to react or escape.

Li Lige noticed Adele’s gaze and just glanced at her indifferently.

An inexplicable sense of frustration arose in Adele’s heart.

Damn it… why were they all so tall!

Only the little angel Sharon cared for her, her height was similar to Adele’s, sob…

“Her ability, Mist Phantom Crow, is considered one of the best among ability-type vampires, agile and…”

“Mist Branch? Where’s Mist Branch?” (The protagonist of the first installment of “Pretty Girl Kaleidoscope,” a tsundere and sharp-tongued vampire)

Adele tilted her head and asked.

“…”

Li Lige suddenly felt like she was talking to a brick wall.

She finally met a girl who had a connection with her, and she wanted to teach her more in her remaining time.

But unfortunately, she was eager to teach, while Adele was not eager to learn.

It seemed that there was a reason why her strength was so low.

Was she content to be a vase, protected by others?

Li Lige sighed softly in resignation.

And Edith in front of them was already showing signs of exhaustion. She had tried many times to transform into a black feather and pierce through the darkness, but all she got was failure.

If she could choose again, she would definitely regret it, she would definitely not provoke Adele…

Why did it seem like there was always someone helping her?

Every crisis Adele faced would always turn into safety.

Resentment gradually eroded Edith’s heart.

The result was that the moment she was completely swallowed by the darkness came even sooner.

Edith’s strength was finally exhausted, and the moment she showed fatigue and weakness, the surrounding black mist surged towards her.

Even though she widened her eyes and struggled, she couldn’t change the outcome.

In an instant, Edith’s world was plunged into darkness.

“Is this… the end?”

Adele shrank her shoulders timidly, her voice weak and pitiful.

As if it had nothing to do with her, she was still that delicate and pitiful little thing.

But the truth was the opposite, everything in front of her was precisely because of her.

She looked at Edith from afar, seemingly drowning in the water, enveloped by darkness, completely losing the strength to struggle, even her purple eyes dimmed.

She looked no different from a dead person, except that Edith’s limbs and fingers were all spread out, her fingertips sharp, showing a ferocious look.

But how could she die just like that?

Adele could see that the current Edith was more like her body was asleep, her consciousness trapped in some kind of illusion.

Perhaps she didn’t even realize it, she still thought she had defeated the darkness.

“Of course not.” Li Lige looked at Adele deeply.

Adele nodded slightly.

She thought to herself, she couldn’t let Edith off so easily.

But if she were to kill Edith, Adele felt that it was a bit too much.

But who knew what the Vengeance Witch was thinking?

These beings who had fallen from humanity into foreign races, it wasn’t surprising what they thought or did.

Adele fell into deep thought, not realizing that a “crisis” was gradually approaching from behind her.

From the Vengeance Witch she briefly trusted.

A smile with an indescribable meaning appeared on Li Lige’s lips, then she reached out and suddenly pushed Adele’s back.

A gentle push, not using much force.

But it was enough to send the unsuspecting Adele into the abyss.

“Ah!”

Adele let out a short cry, then fell uncontrollably towards the spherical object that seemed to be suspended in the center of the cube.

Everything in the domain was controlled by Li Lige.

The ground beneath Adele’s feet was given to her by Li Lige.

But if Li Lige wanted to take it back, it was also easy.

Poor Adele would never have dreamed that Li Lige would suddenly attack her!

Her body fell, her mind blank, without a single thought.

But to say that Li Lige went through all this trouble to betray her…

Was she crazy, or was Li Lige crazy!

So there must be a reason that Adele didn’t know.

This wasn’t to excuse Li Lige…

It was just that a desperate person would always want to grasp at a straw, even if it was just self-deception!

Seeing that her body was about to hit the sphere that seemed to be suspended in the center of the cube, Adele closed her eyes tightly in fear.

She was always afraid of pain…

But the imagined pain didn’t come, the feeling of being enveloped by darkness was clear, like sinking into the deep sea, but not suffocating.

Someone was singing a sad and ethereal song in her ear.

Unlike Sharon’s hypnosis, the song was luring her soul forward.

She forgot everything, she just wanted to follow.

Following the song to an unknown and unreachable place…

………………

When she opened her eyes again, she was in a dusty palace.

The dark red tone was very much in line with the vampire style.

There were portraits of people with indistinguishable faces hanging on the walls, the colors of the oil paint dull.

Adele looked around in confusion.

She couldn’t understand why she was suddenly here.

But the moment she turned around, the girl’s heart stopped!

She saw a pair of purple eyes filled with tears.

And she was all too familiar with the owner of these purple eyes.

The president of the Black Feather Society… Edith!
