After sending the email, Adele didn’t care about any reply from Principal Winona.

Anyway, she had First Snow to back her up, it should be fine.

More importantly, she didn’t want to write any self-criticism!

Why should she be responsible for the trouble caused by Dorothy and Hermione?

The principal was really bullying her.

Because of this, it was no wonder that Adele would protest in this way with such resentment.

Although the real reason might just be laziness.

 

And surprisingly, First Snow could watch Adele play games so intently.

It felt like if she was guided a little, First Snow might become a game addict because of Adele.

But if Adele really did that, she would completely offend Principal Winona.

Not only was her cat in puppy love, but she also turned from a perfectly good, outgoing kitten who liked to stroll and bask in the sun into a game addict who stayed at home all day, staring at the computer screen!

Who could accept that!

Those who couldn’t understand Winona’s feelings could try to look at it from the perspective of a “mother of a game addict.”

So, when Adele was halfway through her game and First Snow was also engrossed in watching, Adele suddenly coughed lightly and said in a faint voice,

 

“It is said that computer screens are specially designed for human eyes. If kittens watch them too much, they will go blind!”

“Meow!?”

First Snow immediately showed a terrified expression and covered her eyes with her little paws.

This kind of talk could only fool children.

Although First Snow was a kitten who had lived for many, many years, for the Cat-Bird race, she was currently in the transition stage from childhood to adolescence.

The specific manifestations were that she would fall in love with someone, and even experience estrus.

But at the same time, her mental development was still immature, she was still pure and innocent, just like a child.

 

Deceiving such a trusting and obedient kitten, Adele actually felt guilty in her heart.

So she set an example and put down the mouse and keyboard, went to the side, opened a can of delicious cat food, and placed it on the windowsill.

Seeing this, First Snow immediately transformed back into her cat-bird form and started enjoying it with gusto.

“Don’t eat so fast, I have plenty more here.”

Adele said while reaching out to stroke the kitten’s soft white fur.

It was a feeling that she would never tire of.

Just then, the notification sound of her phone suddenly rang.

 

But when she excitedly picked up her phone from the computer desk, the message she saw made her smile gradually freeze and disappear.

It was actually Dorothy…

Being entangled with this girl would bring a lot of trouble.

But if Dorothy found out that she had read the message but didn’t reply, the trouble might become even bigger.

So Adele had no choice but to unlock her phone and click to view Dorothy’s message.

Dorothy: Has Adele finished her self-criticism?

Dorothy: I know you’re feeling wronged, but please bear with it for now.

 

Dorothy: I’ll be working behind the scenes soon, trying to impeach Principal Winona at the semi-annual school board meeting and support someone who’s beneficial to me.

Dorothy: By then, I can help you settle anything you do in school, Adele.

Adele: It’s not that serious!

And why did it sound like Adele was a villainous character who did all sorts of bad things!

Dorothy herself was naturally someone no one dared to provoke in the academy, and she received preferential treatment.

But when she wanted Adele to have the same privileges as her, Principal Winona became a stumbling block.

So Dorothy thought of getting rid of this stumbling block.

 

As expected of the Vampire Princess, her way of thinking was truly beyond the reach of ordinary people.

But Adele felt a little touched in her heart, and her impression of Dorothy also improved.

Don’t ask why, it was just girlish feelings.

This person was actually willing to go to such lengths for her, she had Adele in her heart… that was probably what Adele was thinking.

Who didn’t want to be loved?

Adele: Thank you, Dorothy, but I’ve already taken care of the self-criticism.

Adele: Principal Winona wasn’t entirely wrong, anyway, I just want to maintain the status quo.

 

Maintain the status quo of Winona as the principal, otherwise, with her status as a legendary mage, she could fly freely wherever she wanted.

Being the principal was just a temporary stop for her, it wasn’t worth her effort to stay.

It was a waste of talent for Winona to stay at Cromwell Academy.

And more importantly, if Winona resigned as principal and left, wouldn’t First Snow also have to leave!?

That was unacceptable!

Adele had already formed a deep bond with First Snow.

Moreover, if First Snow wasn’t in the academy, who would replenish Adele’s missing magic power!

 

First Snow: So I’m just a cute magic replenishing machine…

Adele’s reply surprised Dorothy.

But after pondering for a while, her reply still respected Adele’s decision.

Dorothy: Okay, maintain the status quo.

Dorothy: But if there’s anything you need, Adele, feel free to contact me.

Dorothy: Also, I’m free tonight, I was thinking if we could meet up.

Dorothy: Not necessarily a date or anything.

 

Dorothy: Just a casual walk and chat.

Dorothy: Adele?

Half an hour later.

Adele: Sorry, sorry, I was just taking a shower!

Adele: I don’t really want to go out after taking a shower, so let’s forget about it today.

Dorothy: …Okay then.

Actually, she was still a little interested in the fragrant Adele after her shower.

 

But Dorothy had decided to change her past habit of not being considerate of Adele’s feelings, to change herself who kept making mistakes.

So she didn’t pester Adele any further.

Anyway, there would be opportunities to be intimate with Adele in the future, and gradually, Adele would feel her determination to change.

When that day came, Adele would probably fully accept her.

And their relationship could develop sweetly.

Dorothy smiled rarely, thinking about the future.

But in reality, Adele let out a sigh of relief and muttered to herself,

 

“Finally got rid of Dorothy, she suddenly asked me out, it really scared me…”

“Also, the excuse of ‘taking a shower’ is really foolproof for girls.”

There were also related excuses like “I’m going to eat,” “I’m going to sleep,” “I’m running… ah~…”

Whether it was boys or girls, they should be wary when their girlfriends said these things!

As for whether Adele actually took a shower, judging from the big “Victory” on her screen, it was obviously a lie!

It was because she didn’t know how to respond to Dorothy’s message.

So she simply ignored it, and it also matched her excuse of “taking a shower” later.

 

“Adele is lying, meow.”

First Snow, who had witnessed everything, stated in a cute and soft voice.

Children learn by example, and Adele had set a bad example.

Hearing this, Adele hugged First Snow and rubbed her in her arms.

“Of course lying is bad, First Snow, don’t learn it.”

“But sometimes, it’s necessary to avoid trouble.”

“As long as you don’t have bad intentions and don’t lie to important people, it’s fine.”

 

“First Snow can’t lie to Adele, okay~”

“Meow… okay, meow.”

First Snow easily compromised.

Because she remembered that Winona seemed to have said something similar.

Something about “white lies.”

But was Adele’s lie today a “white lie”? Wasn’t it just to brush someone off?

Moreover, First Snow had always had a strange impression of Dorothy.

 

She felt scared, like a monster, the shadow behind her was indescribable and unapproachable.

If she were Adele, she probably wouldn’t want to be entangled with Dorothy either.

“Let’s not talk about this anymore, First Snow! Please continue our special training from last time.”

“That short-distance teleportation magic, please, please! Show it to me a few more times!”

First Snow showed a pitiful, conflicted look.

“It’s very tiring, meow…”

Adele immediately held up one finger.

 

Seeing this, First Snow still hesitated.

Then Adele simply held up three fingers, and finally five fingers! She opened her whole hand.

It turned out that five fingers worked!

“Deal, meow!”

Adele traded five bags of freeze-dried food for the opportunity to learn short-distance teleportation magic!

If people in the magic world knew that such a high-level magic could be learned at such a low cost, compared to them having to use connections to learn even ordinary magic, it could only be said that comparing yourself to others would only make you die of envy.

However, whether Adele could learn it or not was still unknown.

 

But if she could, it would mean that Adele had the ability to go anywhere in the world without a ticket.

Before learning, Adele even took out the beginner-level legacy staff that originally belonged to Winona, which she had kept at home.

Every little bit helped.

The Kitten Special Training Class started again at this moment.

The result of the human and cat’s efforts was that late at night, they were both exhausted and sprawled out on the bed.

As for the results…

Adele could only say, author, come out here! Don’t you know how to add a “female protagonist is a magic genius” setting!

 

In short, Adele’s magic talent wasn’t weak or ordinary, but it wasn’t as extraordinary as she imagined.

The profound teleportation magic was even more headache-inducing to watch.

To put it simply, with Adele’s current level, she couldn’t comprehend such a high-level existence. Forcing herself to understand it would make her lose sanity.

So First Snow finally chose to teach Adele some simple magic, like “remote fish bombing,” “catnip growth”…

This made Adele wonder if First Snow had ever seriously studied magic.

Why did it sound like… they were all unique magic she had developed herself while eating and drinking!

So she had also learned short-distance teleportation by herself?

If that was the case…

Hiss—!

Adele suddenly felt that her past view of First Snow might have been wrong all along.

This girl… might be an amazing kitten!

A mischievous thought came to Adele’s mind.

It would be great if she didn’t have to become strong herself, but could rely on First Snow to protect her.

But this kind of thinking was no different from parents pushing their pressure onto their children, hoping that their children would become successful in the future and support them.

Adele just thought about it casually and quickly gave up.

Moreover, she liked First Snow’s current lazy and cute appearance.

Principal Winona probably had a similar thought. That’s why, even though she knew that First Snow had terrifying magic talent, she was still willing to give her a free and relaxed environment, not forcing her to do things she didn’t want to do.

And in this process, First Snow’s existence also motivated Winona, making her have to become strong, strong enough to protect First Snow.

 

Thinking of this, Adele felt a surge of fighting spirit in her heart.

Hmph, she wouldn’t be any worse than that woman!

First Snow, follow me from now on, I will become strong and protect you too!

Adele imagined herself growing a white, crescent-shaped beard and extending her broad hand towards First Snow.

“First Snow! Be my cat!”*

“Meow?”

But since the anime “One Piece” didn’t exist in this world, no one would understand this reference.

“Ahem, it’s nothing.”

“Right, First Snow, give Xiao Wei a call.”

“Tell her that you’re not going home tonight, you’re staying at big sister’s house~”
