Aponia's words were sincere, spoken from the bottom of her heart.
Although Elysia was touched, right now she didn't dare to move.
She was drenched in sweat. With the slightest movement, beads of sweat would trickle down her thighs, tracing a path along her snow-white skin before disappearing into the top of her shoes.
Ye Feng had changed Elysia into a pure white formal dress.
Clad in the white gown, Elysia's pink hair shimmered with a crystalline luster, and her exquisite, flawless face seemed to glow.
But her eyes were veiled by a watery mist, giving her a beauty that was at once sorrowful, miserable, and wretched.
"...Mr. Ye Feng, that should be enough, right..."
"This class has only just begun."
"..."
Elysia sat up slightly straighter, bathed in the autumn sunlight streaming through the window, her entire being suffused with a radiant glow.
Even as the pink-haired elf girl was endlessly made to "+1," "+1," her temperament remained pure and refined, her beauty beyond compare.
It was dazzling, mesmerizing.
Truly befitting of the "Flawless Hüman."
Especially after changing into this pure white dress and with the addition of a halo above her head, she exuded an even greater aura of divinity.
"Hehe, isn't this nice, Elly? To receive such high praise from one of your best friends. Actually, what Referee Aponia said is exactly what I was thinking, too."
"Hmph... Even if you say that, Mr. Ye Feng, I won't be happy..."
Elysia's temperament was clear and otherworldly, her figure graceful and elegant, and she loved to laugh.
But right now, she couldn't manage a smile at all.
However, even if Elysia wasn't smiling, there were others who were.
Ye Feng bared his pearly white teeth, flashing Elysia a brilliant smile.
"Alright, that's enough, my good Elly. You can accept this volley of arrows with gratitude now."
Elysia, who was already in a state of constant release, was struck as if she had been pierced by the Herrscher of the Void's Subspace Lances. She abruptly threw back her long, fair, slender neck as crystalline droplets flew from the corners of her eyes and mouth.
"Aaaaaaaa~~~"
The pink-haired elf girl stretched her neck and let out a high-pitched song. In the classroom, thick with autumn sunlight, one could almost see musical notes dancing in the golden rays.
At the lectern, the greatest artist of the Previous Era kept time with the pitch of Elysia's voice.
"May this moment shine like gold."
The elegant and magnificent voice soared, pushing the performance to another level.
Aponia, her heart filled with pity, lowered her eyelids and silently clasped her ten fingers together in prayer.
"I couldn't change anything. I couldn't save anyone..."
"Just as the prophecy foretold, the things that everyone feared, I brought them forth one by one, made them reality one by one. This cannot be blamed on the arrangements of fate. I know my sin, and my sin is ever before me."
At this very moment, the nun was unwilling to listen for the pity of fate; her ears were filled only with the rise and fall of the elf girl's song.
"Eeeh?"
Aponia, her eyes shut tight, was startled as she too was drawn into the golden, resplendent concert hall.
The afternoon classroom was quiet and warm.
Golden sunlight sprinkled across the neat rows of desks and chairs, making the room sparkle.
---o---
...
Elysia had a great talent for singing; otherwise, how could her speech carry such a musical quality?
Sometimes, Ye Feng didn't even need to guide her intentionally. Elysia could complete the musical score on her own, just like a true elf singing and dancing among the flowers.
Meanwhile, Aponia, with her powerful spirit but frail body, had become synonymous with the word "delicate" in Elysia's mind.
And in truth, it was accurate.
Aponia appeared quite large, with strong, powerful thighs and a broad, magnificent bosom that was truly astonishing.
But in reality, in terms of performance, her endurance was far inferior to Elysia's.
She was even much weaker than the petite Mobius.
The only reason Aponia could persevere was because of her immense spiritual strength.
Her frail body was not suited for travel; perhaps even just walking outside would leave her out of breath. If it were Chong Chong "inhabiting" her body, her soul would have long since departed for the heavens.
---o---
Back in the classroom, Elysia's and Aponia's consciousness had returned.
The emotionless NPCs climbed up from the messy floor.
The sunlight refracted off them, their tender and smooth skin reflecting a brilliant white light.
But their eyes and expressions were devoid of spirit, making them look like moving dolls.
The NPCs of Elysia and Aponia didn't even bother to tidy themselves up. They simply walked out of the classroom, soaking wet, their faces blank and wooden.
The pink elf's steps were as light and nimble as ever, the holy nun's gait as steady and elegant as always.
But combined with their current state, it created a stark, jarring contrast.
"That's actually pretty lewd..."
Watching the two of them walk away unconsciously, Ye Feng wondered if he should drag them back...
"Better not." But he quickly abandoned the thought.
It was the contrast between their holy, flawless appearance and their sullied bodies that was so exciting. If he overdid it, the unique flavor would be lost.
Slap—
A ball of white fluff suddenly appeared.
"Ugh~~ It really stinks in here..."
Kiana pinched her nose. She looked at the trashed classroom and then at Ye Feng with an expression of disgust.
"You went after the NPCs again, huh? That's basically the same as using a fleshlight, right?"
Kiana tiptoed into the room, avoiding the unidentified puddles on the floor.
Kiana might truly have some feline attributes. Her cat-like steps were exceptionally graceful and steady; despite the dense scattering of small puddles on the classroom floor, she didn't step in a single one.
She calmly walked up to Ye Feng, planted her hands on her hips, and declared triumphantly, "How unsightly, Mr. Ye Feng."
Ye Feng looked at Chong Chong, straightened his back, and walked toward her. "That tsundere little expression of yours is practically screaming, 'Why are you playing with dolls when this young lady is right here for the taking!'"
"Don't come near me! Don't come any closer! Begone, evil spirit! And don't you dare try to read my mind!"
Kiana waved her hands, her face full of disgust.
Ye Feng stopped in his tracks. "Then what did Chong Chong come here for?"
"Of course, it was to rush to the scene and mock you at the earliest opportunity."
Kiana had just seen two "snow cookies" walk out of the classroom, and with a single leap, she had hopped over.
She knew Ye Feng would definitely be here.
Heaven was her witness, Chong Chong had rushed over truly just to be the first on the scene to mock him.
There was no other motive.
Absolutely!
"Oh, Chong Chong, and to think I treated you so well. How could you be so disrespectful?"
Kiana was instantly displeased. She crossed her arms and huffed, "You? Treat me well? Who was it that was always saying, 'Even if you cry and beg me, I won't let you go'? Who was it that stole my Mei, and then used Mei to threaten me? Do you really think this young lady has no brain?"
"Wait, wait, wait, wait."
Ye Feng corrected her, "First of all, Mei is not yours. And second, when have I ever used Mei to threaten you?"
