Chapter 61: Withdrawal Symptoms
On a certain day in 2102.
Night Star Lan woke up from her bed and realized she had returned to her original timeline.
It was already past eleven at night, almost midnight.
“Ugh… I’m back. I didn’t expect Source of White to be so kind-hearted and actually send me back.”
This future trip was quite satisfying for Night Star Lan.
Though it only lasted two weeks, it brought her immense satisfaction.
There were no dangers along the way.
She spent almost every day in the gentle embrace of girls and loli.
Even searching for Source of White didn’t consume much time for her.
In the end, she found her thanks to the Night Watchers.
Night Star Lan was amazed.
When she heard the message from Mo Rabbit, her first reaction was disbelief.
Only when she saw Source of White, who was in the same state as Kuro, did she have to believe this.
No matter what.
It’s so out of character for Source of White to be found in such a lowly manner.
In other words, it’s too undignified.
Such a high-difficulty task that even multiple First Generation Star Eclipses failed to find.
If anyone else had tried, they would have used the All-Powerful Wish Princess for help.
But since she did it alone,
It’s more fitting for Source of White’s high status.
But unfortunately,
On the night she found Source of White,
Her Wish Princess didn’t wake up.
It was just one day!
What an unbelievable coincidence.
This made her hopes fall flat quickly.
Of course, hoping and reality are two different things.
Finding Source of White without lifting a finger still fits her lazy personality well.
Source of White sending her back also aligns with her desire to avoid wasting her Wish Princess’s power.
Everyone is happy.
The only thing is, she didn’t say goodbye to any of her future friends.
White Fish and the others are waiting for her return.
Luo Xi is still sleeping next to her.
If only she had known this earlier, she would have kissed Luo Xi instead.
That would be some revenge, right?
Ambushes aren’t cool, after all. That’s why Luo Xi always said “don’t leave any regrets”.
Now, going back so early, Night Star Lan felt pretty regretful.
Given the current circumstances, it’s hard to mess around much.
After all, by now this present-day Luo Xi probably doesn’t even recognize her.
Well, no wait.
She should know.
Since her parents are Night Watchers, she must understand how things work in the hidden reality.
In that world, both Audience Performer and Watcher Night Lan have quite a reputation.
So this present-day Luo Xi should have some idea who she is.
If that’s the case,
She could skip a lot of steps during their first meeting.
Of course.
Skipping straight to the making-out stage isn’t really practical.
They can’t become lovers right away, right?
They need to start as friends first and then gradually move towards being lovers.
As for that strong-minded three-no-loli,
Night Star Lan feels it might be tricky.
Maybe in that future, it wasn’t Night Star seeking out Luo Xi, but rather Luo Xi actively approaching Night Star, which led them to becoming lovers.
Thinking about it carefully,
That’s true.
But it might be too late already!
Having gone to the future, Night Star has absolute control!
She can never let Luo Xi get the upper hand again!
This time, she won’t be a weak recipient.
Instead, she’ll pin Luo Xi down!
Even if Luo Xi has those rare maternal vibes, Night Star is determined not to be the submissive type.
At the very least, they need to be on equal footing.
If they become lovers, the dominant role should swap positions on occasion.
That would be perfect!
But all these plans can wait until tonight.
The Wish Princess hasn’t woken up.
It’s the middle of the night.
Better to get some sleep and figure things out tomorrow morning.
With Source of White’s safety ensured,
It’s okay to stop acting all paranoid.
Night Star Lan needs to handle her current issues.
Returning from the future, she gained many new insights and can tackle things ahead of schedule.
The future with Source of White is just one possibility.
If Night Star decides to interfere, it will create more possibilities.
No one knows what this particular future holds.
“Ahh~”
Night Star Lan yawned and lay back down.
Red and azure eyes peered at each other. The two loli won’t be sleeping anytime soon.
They’ve gotten used to life in the future within two weeks.
Now they need to get used to life here.
Now that Night Star can’t hug Luo Xi anymore, she feels a bit lonely.
Even though Night Lan is right beside her.
Sometimes, having a three-no-loli with maternal vibes as company beats cuddling herself.
Didn’t expect missing Luo Xi could cause such intense withdrawal symptoms in just a short time.
How can she deal with this?
This might lead to insomnia tonight.
Night Star Lan feels very troubled and considers using special methods to make herself sleep.
After all, she can’t meet Luo Xi at this moment.
Late at night, Luo Xi might be sleeping.
If she suddenly barges into their room, it could scare Luo Xi.
If any misunderstanding arises and impacts Luo Xi’s opinion of her,
Night Star Lan will cry with no place to go.
So it’s better to wait until morning.
Upon waking up,
She will make sure to know Luo Xi sooner the next day!
…
The next morning.
Night Star Lan woke up full of energy.
Previously, after waking up, she’d feel drowsy all day.
It felt like torture.
Now, she felt restored.
Night Star Lan finally had the energy to organize the information from the future.
Night Star and Night Lan got up and washed up quickly.
The ghost girl, Eypar, somehow appeared and started circling around Night Star and Night Lan.
“Good morning, Night Star and Night Lan!”
Seeing this ghost girl, Night Star entered a brief period of reflection.
“Eypar, are you ready to work?”
“What!?!?”
Eypar’s spiky hair instantly stood erect, as if she’d been subjected to a great shock.
“Work? What does that mean? Eypar is a ghost girl—someone who’s dead. Dead people can’t work.”
“No, no. With me around, anything’s possible!”
Night Star replied.
Poor Eypar lives a monotonous life;
All she does is float around or play pranks on random people.
While fulfilling obsessions is understandable, life should have more variety.
Like learning how to cook.
She can join the Watchers’ extra roster and interact with various people,
Perhaps even learn from Neko Shinna!
How awesome would it be for a ghost to learn cooking!
