And so, “Not lewd for a day, epilepsy attack” became Adele’s incantation for revealing her witch form.

What a mess…

Adele’s actions were like shooting herself in the foot.

But Seraph was oblivious to this, still continuing her explanation.

“Domains have many uses, the most important being that it’s your home ground.”

“You will receive a certain enhancement.”

“And theoretically, those whose strength doesn’t exceed yours by too much, if they are pulled into your domain without any defenses, they must also abide by the rules of the domain to escape.”

 

“Either you let them go out of kindness, or someone from the outside world disturbs your domain.”

Just like Li Lige that time, Edith, the president of the Black Feather Society, was unknowingly trapped in Li Lige’s domain, unable to escape.

She was even affected by the power of the domain, losing her mind, and falling into memories of the target of her hatred.

And the person Edith hated was her own mother, who gave birth to her and raised her.

If she could take revenge on her mother, she could resolve her inner demons and escape from the domain.

But she couldn’t.

Without external intervention, Edith’s life and death were practically in Li Lige’s hands.

 

With just a thought from Li Lige, Edith’s fate could be decided.

But Li Lige didn’t want to cause such serious trouble for Adele, so she gave up.

“Then what is the rule of my domain?”

Adele asked softly, suppressing her frustration.

“The rule of the Lust Witch is also very simple.”

“It is to resist your own lust.”

“Just like the woman you mentioned, Li Lige, those who fall into her domain must kill the person they hate, the person they fear, to break free from the domain’s confinement.”

 

“‘Hatred’ stems from the original sin of wrath, and wrath admires the brave, believing that the existence of cowards is meaningless.”

“The more loyal someone is to ‘lust,’ the more they will be trapped in your domain, Adele. At that time, they will become your lambs to be slaughtered.”

Adele pondered.

“So, if I pull someone into my domain, and they can’t resist my temptation, they will become fish on my chopping board?”

“That’s right, you have good comprehension.”

Seraph didn’t skimp on her praise for Adele.

And Adele even learned to draw inferences.

 

“Then conversely, the more pure and virtuous someone is, the more they adhere to their principles and practice abstinence, the less effective my domain will be on them?”

“Yes, just like now.”

The angel Seraph smiled slightly.

She stretched out a hand, opened it in front of Adele, and then gently clenched it.

Instantly, Adele’s domain melted away.

The surrounding scene returned to reality, back to Adele’s bedroom!

It was as if they had never left!

 

The angel Seraph easily broke Adele’s domain.

Because of her holy nature, Adele’s temptation had no effect on her.

“It’s just teaching, you’re hurting my feelings by doing this!”

Adele stomped her foot in dissatisfaction.

Because Seraph’s actions were like saying to Adele directly – “Your charm has no effect on me.”

It was too frustrating!

The angel’s low EQ was evident.

 

“…”

“Okay, I’ll be careful next time.”

But the angel wasn’t stubborn, Seraph said so.

After explaining this, it meant that the angel’s initial teaching was complete.

Adele could at least start using her witch powers simply.

As for more complex applications, Seraph didn’t think it was appropriate to teach Adele at this time, so she didn’t cram everything into Adele’s head.

Just as she was about to say something else, a “scratch, scratch” sound from the window caught the attention of both Seraph and Adele.

 

Adele turned her head and saw a sneaky kitten trying to pry open the window with its front paws.

Or maybe it knew that it couldn’t open the window, and was just trying to alert Adele to its arrival by making this sound.

“First Snow…” Adele murmured the kitten’s name, then seemed to remember something and quickly turned back.

But at this time, the angel Seraph had already disappeared without a trace.

“…”

Although Adele felt a bit strange about Seraph’s disappearance, she quickly adjusted and ran towards the window, complaining as usual,

“Coming, coming! You little glutton, you really come on time every day to remind me to feed you.”

 

“Don’t you know your sister is poor? I’m almost in debt from studying in the academy, my monthly allowance isn’t enough at all.”

“Are there too many rich vampires in the academy, so you think every vampire is rich? (angry)”

Adele had never heard of any poverty subsidies at Cromwell Academy.

If there were any, how could they not be given to her and Tang Linlang back then?

“Meow…”

First Snow let out a meow of unknown meaning, but Adele thought that she was probably defending herself.

Saying, “I eat very little, meow! I can eat even less in the future, meow…”

 

Even if it wasn’t, it didn’t stop Adele from opening the window and scooping First Snow, the Cat-Bird, into her arms.

Then she carried her to the cans and opened a can of high-grade tuna, which was indeed an expensive item for Adele.

Usually, Adele would subconsciously choose cheap and affordable things, paying attention to cost-effectiveness.

But when it came to pets, she was incredibly generous.

“Eat well, little glutton.”

Adele gently stroked First Snow’s back, and of course, her folded wings, as she said,

“I’m going downstairs to prepare my own breakfast.”

 

“I’m going to work at the Archives Management Bureau later, do you want to come with me, First Snow?”

Adele thought to herself that doing that kind of boring work, she couldn’t play games or watch dramas.

Having a cute kitten to keep her company would at least help pass the time and alleviate her loneliness.

“Meow!”

This time, Adele understood.

It meant “I want to go, meow!”

At the same time, a purring sound came from First Snow’s throat.

 

This meant that the cat was in a good mood, a kind of happiness engraved in a cat’s voice.

Adele smiled slightly, petted First Snow’s head, and then went downstairs, took out frozen convenience food from the refrigerator, and heated it up in the microwave.

First Snow tirelessly stuck out her pink tongue with barbs, licking the high-grade tuna can.

She licked the sauce clean first, and then ate the tuna meat made in the factory.

Although this was expensive, high-grade cat food for Adele, from Principal Winona’s perspective, with her status and wealth, she would obviously consider this can of cat food as cheap junk food.

Perhaps Winona would think that if First Snow liked to eat it, she could use her resources to airlift a fresh, heavyweight bluefin tuna for First Snow.

But she had actually made a common mistake that many parents made when raising children.

 

Because for children, it wasn’t necessarily the more expensive and nutritious things they chose that they liked the most.

Instead, it was the junk food that the fun big sister next door took them to eat that won their hearts.

Obviously, Adele was that fun and good-looking big sister, and First Snow was the kitten who loved junk food.

Soon, First Snow finished her cat food, the can licked clean.

She turned around, moved her light paws, her fine white fur swaying gently with her movements, and ran downstairs with a “tap, tap” sound.

She ran to Adele’s side, rubbing her body against Adele’s ankle, and meowed coquettishly.

Adele’s breakfast was very simple, a “black pepper pasta,” instant food that only needed to be heated up in the microwave.

 

Noticing First Snow’s arrival, she took the opportunity to pet First Snow’s head while chewing, then patted her thigh.

First Snow instantly understood.

The cute kitten took a small step back, her ears flattening against her head – this was what cats called “airplane ears.”

Then, First Snow jumped with a sprint, successfully landing on Adele’s lap.

“Be gentle, you dummy.”

First Snow’s ears drooped, and she let out a soft “meow” ingratiatingly.

But at Winona’s house, whether she climbed onto the alchemy table in the alchemy lab and accidentally or deliberately knocked things down, shattering them, when facing her friend Winona, First Snow’s expression was always either – “What’s wrong, meow?” or “Yes, I did it, meow, so what, meow!” a righteous little expression.

 

In contrast, Adele was truly blessed but didn’t know it.

It was the old saying again: “Those who are not favored will always be restless, those who are favored are always fearless.”

Adele wasn’t really angry, because it was she who asked First Snow to jump onto her lap.

She just focused on eating her pasta. The sour taste was okay, but definitely not Adele’s favorite.

First Snow sat elegantly on Adele’s lap, her four fluffy paws together, her posture especially dignified as she puffed out her chest covered in white fur, her golden wings gently flapping behind her back.

She looked at the instant food Adele was eating curiously.

Seeing that the kitten seemed interested, Adele picked up a small piece of pasta with her fork and held it to First Snow’s nose.

 

“Sniff~ sniff~”

First Snow sniffed it, she didn’t dislike it, but she couldn’t say she liked it either.

But because it was something Adele was offering her, she opened her mouth and took a small bite, accurately taking the pasta into her mouth.

Then she started chewing.

“…”

“Is it not good?”

“Meow.”

 

“You really don’t like it? But I have black pepper steak here, do you want some?”

“Meow!”

So Adele reluctantly fed First Snow the few pieces of black pepper steak from her meal.

Soon, Adele finished her breakfast. She changed into her shoes at the entrance and prepared to leave.

At that time, First Snow was still on the floor of Adele’s living room, gently biting her tail, looking at Adele expectantly.

“You really want to go?” Adele smiled helplessly, then nodded. “Okay, come on up.”

“But you have to put away your wings, can you do that?”

 

Adele thought to herself, even she, a novice witch, could retract her wings and tail, First Snow, as a magical creature who had lived for so many years, could definitely do it, right?

Indeed, First Snow meowed happily, and the wings on her back turned into golden particles and disappeared in an instant.

Then she jumped onto Adele’s shoulder, letting Adele carry her out of the dorm.

Taking a cat to work…

Considering she was still an intern… it should be fine, right?

When Adele arrived at the Archives Management Bureau, she found that it was more than fine, even her senior was excitedly petting the cat with her.

However, First Snow didn’t seem very happy, often letting out dissatisfied meows.

This surprised Adele.

So First Snow wasn’t a “social butterfly” kitten.

Adele could only say to her senior at the Archives Management Bureau,

“My kitten is a little shy, I’m sorry.”

“Sister Song Qi, you can pet her head and shake her paws, but don’t touch other parts, I’m afraid she’ll bite you.”

Hearing this, First Snow showed her cute little canines cooperatively.

As if saying, “If you dare to touch me again, I will really bite you, meow!”

For First Snow, her head and paws were indeed the only parts that strangers could touch.

Other, more private places… especially under her wings, only Adele could touch.

As for Xiao Wei, she could occasionally pet her too, meow…

Principal Winona would probably never have thought that the cat she had raised for decades would run away with a “bad woman” after being teased by Adele for just a few days!

She even let the bad woman touch her, but not Winona!

Song Qi looked disappointed.

“Okay, I’m so envious of you, Adele, having a cat to be close to.”

“Little kitty, are you a good girl? The director will come over for a routine inspection later.”

“You have to hide well then, or your sister Adele will be punished, she might have to work overtime again tonight.”

Song Qi thought the kitten couldn’t understand, so she was actually saying this to Adele.

Meaning, it was okay to bring a cat, but she had to hide the cute kitten well, otherwise, if the director found out, she would still be punished.

At that time, Song Qi couldn’t possibly sacrifice herself to help Adele.

As an old fritter in the agency, after finishing her own work on time every day, she wouldn’t do anything extra. Her daily goal of going to work was to get off work, she lived a very simple life.

So at that time, Song Qi would at most insist that she didn’t know Adele brought a cat to the office.

She wouldn’t kick Adele while she was down, but she definitely wouldn’t help her either.

But what Song Qi didn’t expect was that Adele didn’t care about her words.

Instead, it was the kitten in front of her who suddenly raised her cute little face and stared at Song Qi with wide eyes.

“…”

Could it be that it really understood?

Song Qi’s mouth opened slightly in surprise.

Adele quickly smoothed things over,

“I understand, Sister Song Qi, thank you for your concern.”

“Ah, n-no problem, you go to work, I’ll let you know when the director is coming.”

“Okay, thank you, Sister Song Qi!”

Adele was quite good at social etiquette.

At least much better than that angel with low EQ, Seraph!

Adele still didn’t know where Seraph went after she disappeared.

But there was also a possibility that she was still silently hiding by Adele’s side.

But no matter what, it didn’t change the fact that Adele was a “worker.”

She had to work at an internship unit while she was in school, and her identity as a witch was also, in a sense, working for that unknown “Lord.”

The angel Seraph was a high-level worker, Adele’s superior.

But for now, she didn’t have any orders for Adele.

On the contrary, Seraph was very helpful to Adele.

She had been teaching her how to be a qualified witch.

 

After reminding Adele, Song Qi returned to her office to slack off.

As for Adele, she held First Snow in her arms and turned on the outdated computer in the archives room.

While waiting for the computer to boot up, she noticed the worry in First Snow’s eyes.

Adele seemed to realize something and chuckled softly.

“Don’t worry too much, little silly cat.”

“I’ll finish work soon, and then we’ll play games, okay?”

First Snow nodded and quietly transformed into a petite girl in Adele’s arms, hugging Adele slightly tighter, showing her concern.

At that moment, Adele felt her witch’s Origin Quality stirring!

If it weren’t for Seraph’s seal on this Origin Quality, with Adele’s inability to resist temptation and her tendency to easily fall, she would probably have grown wings and a tail by now, ready to devour the cute little cat-girl First Snow!

“Why suddenly… okay, I’ll hug you for a while.”

“Meow.”

“Adele… is the best, meow!”

First Snow suddenly kissed Adele’s face, then her cheeks flushed red like she was drunk.

She immediately buried her face in Adele’s chest, not daring to let Adele see.

Otherwise, she would die of embarrassment.

Adele was touched by the girl’s words.

But her surprise was also genuine.

At the same time, she increasingly suspected that she was marching towards a path of self-destruction.

If one day Principal Winona found out that she had abducted and bewitched her cat…

What would await Adele then?

 

Adele suddenly shivered, not daring to think further.

But her body was still honest, holding the soft and obedient little cat-girl in her arms.

First Snow loved being hugged by her sister, meow…

Her sister smelled so good.

Being touched by her sister in different places felt different, some were comfortable, some were embarrassing… but they all pointed to the same feeling, “like.”

Unfortunately, Adele only hugged her for a while before gently patting her butt and telling her to go play by herself, saying “Sister has to work.”

“Work”…?

What a hateful word.

She hated it!

A mist of grievance suddenly appeared in First Snow’s eyes, making them look hazy and beautiful, like a blue crystal lake shrouded in fog.

Xiao Wei also had to work, that’s why she gradually had less time to play with her.

Adele also had to work, she couldn’t continue hugging First Snow.

So, if you asked a kitten what she hated most in this world, it would definitely be work, meow!

But there was nothing she could do, First Snow couldn’t make work disappear, she was just a weak, pitiful, and gluttonous kitten.

So, letting out a dissatisfied grumble, First Snow transformed back into a cat and jumped out of Adele’s arms.

Adele didn’t play with her, she started typing on the keyboard, and First Snow went to find her own fun.

The kitten was sometimes attracted by small insects in the corners of the walls, and sometimes she would run to the window sill and bite the flowers and plants in the pots.

As for the archives piled up on the rows of heavy bookshelves, First Snow had no interest, meow.

 

She could read, but she didn’t like to study!

Time flew by, Adele kept saying she was going to slack off, but her work efficiency was actually quite high.

Around eleven o’clock in the morning, she had already finished her morning’s work. The director probably went to “touch fish” and didn’t come to check.

So Sister Song Qi allowed Adele to leave work early and stamped her internship logbook with the organization’s seal.

This meant that Adele had already completed half of her second day’s task.

Her internship lasted for three days. As long as she endured another day tomorrow, Adele’s suffering would be over.

If Celeste dared to arrange such a “safe” job for her again on her own initiative, Adele would definitely “beep—” her until she meowed!

“First Snow, let’s go.”

First Snow happily jumped into Adele’s arms and, when no one was around, transformed into a petite and adorable silver-haired girl.

But she cleverly hid her wings, cat ears, and tail.

And her fur turned into a simple white dress, draped over her body.

First Snow was very experienced, she knew that this way, Adele wouldn’t worry about her.

She was also a cat-girl who had lived in the mundane world, she knew how to hide her identity, meow.

As expected, when Adele saw her like this, her worries subsided.

But she still deliberately teased First Snow.

“You’re so heavy~”

Adele pretended to be struggling to hold her.

First Snow’s face instantly flushed red, embarrassed.

“I’m not heavy, First Snow is not heavy, meow!”

 

But secretly, the little cat-girl’s heart was in turmoil.

She even started to doubt herself – Was it really because she had been eating too much lately, meow! If she became fat, would Adele dislike her, meow!

Seeing First Snow’s pupils trembling, Adele coughed lightly and said,

“Just kidding, First Snow is so light, I won’t get tired even if I hold you for a long time~”

Five minutes later.

“…Um, First Snow, can you get down for a bit?”

“???”

“Ahem, I mean, let’s just hold hands and walk, there are too many people watching, I’m shy.”

“Hold hands… hold hands, meow!”

First Snow was instantly moved by Adele’s suggestion.

The two girls walking hand in hand on the street became a beautiful sight in the city.

But neither Adele nor First Snow noticed that someone was quietly following them not far behind.

It was a petite woman with light brown, slightly curly hair.

She covered her face with a mask, revealing only a pair of deep and mysterious eyes, staring at Adele and First Snow in the distance with an inexplicable gaze.

When her gaze moved downwards, landing on their tightly clasped hands, the woman’s lips pursed, her expression unreadable.

They had gone from staying out all night to openly being together during the day…

First Snow, you’re still naive, you don’t understand the wickedness of the human heart.

I have to vet this girl personally.
