Chapter 1507: A miraculous existence
So, the chaotic night ended just like that.
The results were pleasing.
Kuro promised to stop attacking Illya. Illya can also stop worrying about an assassin on her tail.
Also, they got to know Kuro a little better.
She is Illya’s other personality given form by the powers of the Archer Card.
Naturally, they still had questions for her.
Why was she there as an alternate personality to Illya’s?
She also seemed to know a few individuals who decided her fate before she was born, suggesting she knew more than she let on.
She also told everyone about how she was sealed in Illya.
As Kuro didn’t want to continue the conversation, they stopped questioning her.
Illya’s background seemed to have more details that Kuro omitted from them. In any case, he is sure Illya isn’t just a normal student.
Rin and Luvia said they would investigate. Meanwhile, Illya went home thinking about her circumstances and current outlook. Miyu also looked like she had some thoughts on the matter but she went home too.
Kuro’s appearance turned their lives upside down.
No, it isn’t just them. Wu Yan is going to have a rough time too.
The reason?
Well…
“I am sleeping with Onii-chan, just the two of us!”
She declared to Hinagiku, Mikoto, and Wu Yan who promptly turned to statues.
“Sharing the same room?”
Mikoto chuckled awkwardly.
“Isn’t that inappropriate?”
“Yeah…”
Hinagiku tried to advise Kuro against that idea.
“Kuro. You’re a girl, as an eleven-year-old girl, you should think twice about sleeping in the same room as a lolic-, I mean, a guy…”
“You were going to label me a lolicon, weren’t you?”
Wu Yan’s lip twitched.
“Onee-chan… I have my reasons.”
Kuro-chan fidgeted despite Hinagiku and Mikoto’s kind-hearted advice.
“I need mana to live. I don’t know when I might need to resupply. What will I do if I suddenly need mana resupply and Onii-chan isn’t near me?”
Kuro-chan sighed, there was a hint of impish light in her eyes.
“Onee-chan, do you want to see me disappear?”
“No, it’s not like that…”
Hinagiku and Mikoto couldn’t laugh this off.
“You said you needed to resupply, that means…”
“Yes!”
Kuro touched her lips while blushing.
“I will need to get up close and friendlier with Onii-chan…”
Wu Yan heard something break within him. He was trying to assimilate himself with the environment, he was so close to becoming one with nature too.
Hinagiku and Mikoto turned into statues again.
“To live…”
Kuro explained.
“Or, are the two lovely ladies who are suspiciously close to their ‘Onii-chan’ afraid of little ol’ me?”
What do you think?!
You were so aggressive when you slipped your tongue into our man. And, you look like you’re a minx too, who wouldn’t be afraid of you?!
Hinagiku and Mikoto had to rein their righteous fury.
Kuro-chan had the logical high ground here. She might run out of mana at night. If no one’s around then she might even fade from existence.
The two ladies didn’t want to risk Kuro’s death because of their emotions.
But, they were still reluctant.
They were so hung up on the idea that they didn’t even consider that Kuro could refill her mana first before sleeping. That would have minimized if not outright eliminate the risk of a mana exhaustion event during the night.
Wu Yan’s mana can give her enough power to stay in this plane of existence for weeks, much less a single night.
Plus, she could extract mana from other people too. Hinagiku and Mikoto could supply mana as well.
No, they were bamboozled by the fast-talking Chloe.
“Ah, fine!”
Mikoto roared.
“Suit yourself!”
“Yan…”
Hinagiku turned toward him with a radiant, beautiful, but dangerous smile like that of a thorny rose.
“Keep your you-know-what in your pants, she’s a kid, you hear me?”
“Ah…”
Wu Yan sighed.
“You think I would put my hands on her?”
“You better don’t…”
Hinagiku and Mikoto left after cautioning him again.
“Ara ara…”
Kuro enjoyed that very much. She was flailing her legs around on the sofa.
“Those two ladies were so jealous…”
“Whose fault do you think it is?”
He asked begrudgingly.
“Anyway, how long does a typical mana recharge cycle last?”
“I don’t know…”
Kuro shook her head.
“I took my magic circuits from Illya and I can’t store much. I reckon the kiss just now can keep me going for weeks at a time. Other people can’t do that though.”
“You can’t produce mana on your own, huh?”
He nodded.
“Then, you used the magic power you stole to fight?”
Kuro nodded.
“Okay, how long can you last without fighting?”
“I know where you’re going with this…”
Kuro explained.
“I expend mana just by being here. My mana will be sapped regardless of usage during fights.”
“Right now, you could call my existence a miracle…”
The air turned still.
Wu Yan also gave her the time to collect her thoughts.
Then, she wrapped her arms around his neck before straddling him on the sofa.
“A normal resupply would give me a few days at most, assuming I don’t fight. But, now, I just found the Holy Grail…”
Kuro grinned while looking into his eyes. She was also blushing.
“Your magic power, the volume, the density, and your regen, I can live forever with you around…”
“That’s why, Onii-chan…”
She pulled Wu Yan’s head closer.
“Don’t leave me, okay?”
The sound of lips smacking formed a lewd cacophony against the backdrop of wet slurping sounds.
