189 The Scum Maid
Back in Scissor Town, when the mission was being settled and it was time to leave, the fat manager of the Guild mentioned he was sending his daughter to the Academy and asked Wang Yue to look after her a bit.
Wang Yue was happy to earn the favor. After all, with teachers and housemothers at the school, she would only need to say a few words if they crossed paths. Judging by the worried expression on the fat supervisor’s face, she had expected a rather mischievous and unruly girl, but after meeting her in person, she found her to be exceptionally well-behaved. This mid-term intake of new students was an expansion of the first-year class, so they were similar in age. Some of the newcomers were students who had missed the registration deadline or failed to secure a spot two months ago.
Once her coursework caught up, they would be in the same year, and might even be assigned to the same class.
“Hello, Senior,” Delia said, bowing slightly with a well-behaved expression.
Although she was willful and headstrong, it was limited to neglecting her studies and sneaking out to play; compared to those with truly malicious personalities, she was practically a little angel.
Now, Senior Wang Yue was a witch capable of standing on her own. Having endured many arduous battles and life-or-death decisions, her aura was like a bronze mirror, polished to a state of profound stillness and brilliance.
For her junior, Delia, who had left home with trepidation, crossed the dark and deep Crimson region, and followed the winding mountain paths to reach a place near the sky, the sight of her senior—radiant as a deity amidst the mist and mountain clouds—struck her heart with immense force. Her head spun, and her gaze was firmly captured, unable to pull itself away from her senior.
Moreover, this senior, with her elegant and classic temperament, was incredibly kind—and she was the very person her family had entrusted to look after her…
A warm current surged through her chest, the heat so intense that she parted her lips to exhale a hot breath, instinctively wanting to lean closer. PA watched coldly from the sidelines; even without seeing Delia’s progress bar toward Wang Yue, it was clear from her foolish, infatuated look that she had already fallen. Hmph.
I’m not any worse than her.
It’s just the Senior’s halo, that’s all.
Stupid loli…
Just you wait… Once we’re in the dorm, I’ll tease you until you’re in absolute ecstasy.
Pandora pretended to be waiting for her roommate, but her eyes darted around sneakily, searching for a suitable target to harvest Sin Points.
Provocation, Seduction, Deception, Depravity.
In public, only ‘Seduction’ was easy to use; the other three were too conspicuous and could easily arouse suspicion.
Pandora’s gaze fell upon a pink-haired girl approaching from a distance. She had a cute appearance and wore a maid’s headpiece; she looked soft and plump, making it obvious at a glance that her daily sugar intake was excessive and her body fat percentage was high.
Pandora’s extensive knowledge told her that with this kind of body fat distribution, the physique was exceptionally soft and smooth. Although it might be slightly lacking in the areas that should be perky, it would be very fun to play with—exactly the type she liked.
From her observations, the curviest one was likely that terrifying red-eyed, blonde loli. She had a fantastic figure and was an absolute stunner, but unfortunately, she wasn’t someone she could lay a finger on.
Next was the pale-gold, long-haired young girl standing beside Mother. Her frame was slender and delicate, her posture soft and lithe—likewise excellent. As for Mother, her figure was well-proportioned and graceful, though unfortunately, she could only be considered upper-middle among this group of seniors. Pandora caught sight of the pink-haired girl approaching Wang Yue and leaning in to say a few words. Judging by her submissive demeanor, she was likely Mother’s little maid.
This maid was no good; it was obvious at a glance. She was lazy and gluttonous, her eyes vacant, exuding a dullness born of being overfed.
Pandora sneered. ‘Seduction’ came in many forms: wealth, flesh, power, Dominance… and of course, sugar.
She pulled a sweet orange candy wrapped in colorful foil from her pouch. It was made from the juice of premium oranges from the Sunshine Orchard, far superior to the sour, astringent wild fruits of the Evernight Realm that had never undergone selective breeding.
A sweet, fruity fragrance drifted past the tip of her nose, teasing her taste buds and whetting her appetite. Dorothy’s gaze shifted, and she was instantly captivated.
Seeing the pink-haired girl gulping and uncontrollably shuffling her feet toward the scent, Pandora felt immensely smug.
Hehe.
Is this the Senior?
How truly laughable.
Come.
Like a puppy catching the scent of a bone.
Come on, pounce over like a good girl!
“Senior?” Pandora’s hand, holding the candy, paused in mid-air as she feigned confusion. “Do you want to eat this?”
Dorothy nodded vigorously.
“Please, help yourself. I brought plenty. These are fruit candies from the Outer Lands; they taste like sunshine!” Pandora said with feigned enthusiasm.
“Thank you, you’re so kind. My name is Dorothy, and you?”
“Pandora…”
The two of them began to chat.
Seduction successful. Pandora immediately felt a sweet aura of sin pour into the Pandora’s Box within her body, and the petals of the Flower of Evil gradually opened a crack.
Dorothy’s eyes widened slightly as her slender white fingers impatiently unwrapped the candy, the paper rustling. She pulled out a piece of orange candy that was as transparent as a gemstone.
She didn’t eat it immediately; instead, she first stuck out her tender pink tongue to lick the wrapper flat and pressed it against the back of her hand, seemingly having a hobby of collecting them.
Then, she popped the candy into her mouth. Her cheeks puffed out, and a blissful expression appeared on her face, making her look just like a puppy gnawing on a bone.
Pandora noticed that once the foolish senior ate the candy, her sin value stopped rising and the petals ceased their blooming. She mused that it seemed only the process of Seduction released the sinful aura; once the act concluded, the release stopped. However, repeated Seduction was feasible. As long as she had candy, she could squeeze sinful aura out of the foolish senior, making the flower bloom through her alone.
A Senior like this—naive enough to be lured with a single piece of candy, yet possessing a decent spiritual body—was simply the best choice.
Pandora glanced at the progress bar beside Dorothy—Favorability: 88, Trust: 72.
Eh?
Does she like and trust whoever feeds her?
Heh.
I’m definitely making this friend.
She instantly became enthusiastic, addressing her as “Senior” at every turn. Her voice was sweet and crisp, sounding incredibly friendly.
Encountering a junior with such a sweet tongue and even sweeter candy, Dorothy was over the moon. Her eyes crinkled into crescents as she thought to herself, My luck is really good today.
Suddenly, Wang Yue’s icy voice rang out from behind her.
“Dorothy.”
“Master?” Dorothy asked, turning around.
Seeing the little maid’s cheek bulging and a shiny candy wrapper stuck to the back of her hand, Wang Yue raised an eyebrow and beckoned her over.
Dorothy walked over.
Wang Yue reached out with lightning speed, pinching the stupid maid’s mouth into a pout. The candy, coated in glistening saliva, slipped from her lips and shattered on the ground.
“Asking a junior for candy? Have you no shame?” Wang Yue glared coldly.
“S-she gave it to me…” Dorothy replied aggrievedly.
“You were staring straight at the candy, your mouth open like you were about to bite down on it! How could they not give it to you? This is candy from the Outer Lands; it’s very expensive, even more expensive than dried fish! What’s the difference between your behavior and robbery?”
Wang Yue was particularly angry. The way Dorothy had acted for the candy reminded her of monkeys at scenic spots.
I had been too busy before and left my little maid to her own devices. Looking back now, I’ve been far too negligent; it’s time to give her some proper discipline.
“Master, I was wrong, waah…” Dorothy stammered, on the verge of tears. “I’ll never ask the juniors for candy again.”
Her plan ruined, Pandora was beyond furious, yet she didn’t dare lash out. Gritting her teeth, she struggled to maintain a smile, causing her small face to contort slightly.
Wang Yue caught a glimpse of her from the corner of her eye—long, straight black hair, startlingly large eyes, and a small, soft, pale face. She wasn’t the cold and aloof type; instead, she was a blend of purity and Seduction, her misty eyes stirring the deepest desires within the heart.
Wang Yue felt the long-haired black-haired girl was a bit scheming, but she didn’t pay it much mind. The Witch Academy was already teeming with eccentric people; one more or one less made no difference. After giving Delia some instructions, she took her leave. Turning around, she walked straight into the Demon Realm, leaving behind a fading misty silhouette.
Delia’s mouth was agape, stars twinkling in her eyes as she gestured excitedly to Pandora. “Did you see that? Senior disappeared in a flash! That was so cool!”
Pandora snorted, her expression sour.
