Chapter 10: Absolutely No to This Kind of Interest!

“Today’s interest is cleared, right!” Su Yuewei rode her magic broom, trailing Elumeng ahead.

The broom’s blue tail flame streaked the sky. Soon, a floating island appeared—their dorm.

“Mhm, consider it done for today.” Elumeng sighed regretfully. Her interest tasks needed to be harsher.

But harsher meant fewer tasks. Su Yuewei owed thirty thousand; daily interest was fixed. She couldn’t assign impossible ones.

If reported to the Weak-Willed Protection Agency, she’d be done—prison and witch society exile.

“Yay!” Su Yuewei nodded excitedly. Daily interest wasn’t that hard!

“We’re here. My dorm—a floating island above the academy. The villa up there is our home now.” Elumeng landed smoothly on the island’s clearing.

The environment was stunning. She’d planted flowers, trees, and used magic for an endless spring. The garden, once hers alone, now welcomed Su Yuewei.

Su Yuewei eased off her broom, parking it beside Elumeng’s.

She looked around. Glowing flower beds, Elumeng’s luminescent trees, benches and lamps along the pebble path.

Soft light from low stone lanterns lined the path. Beautiful glowing insects fluttered around, illuminating the stones.

Elumeng led Su Yuewei by the hand down the garden path. The garden was small but easy to get lost in without guidance. Compact, yet spacious enough for two girls to live long-term.

“I’m scared of the dark, so I planted these luminescent magic plants. They convert daytime magic into light at night—bright enough but not harsh.” Elumeng chose the most practical, beautiful way to make her home cozy.

“You’re boldly admitting you’re scared of the dark~ Sister Elumeng~” Su Yuewei smiled, following behind.

“Yeah, and you’re scared of heights? We’re on a floating island~ Little Yuewei, don’t want to wake up dangling off a cliff, right!” Elumeng raised a brow, smiling but her tone sharp!

Su Yuewei knew her secret; she knew Su Yuewei’s. They exchanged a knowing glance, tacitly dropping the topic.

They shifted to living arrangements.

Beep!

Elumeng stood at the door, flashing her badge. The villa door unlocked with a chime. Interior lights and cooling spells activated, keeping it comfortable.

The villa was spotless, items neatly placed. Spacious with several bedrooms—but only Elumeng lived here.

“The villa’s big, but there’s only one bathroom!” Elumeng pushed open the glass door.

A huge villa with just one tiny bathroom? Most space taken by a tub big enough for both.

“Look, this is tomorrow’s interest~ Little Yuewei.” Elumeng handed Su Yuewei a new list.

This… Only one task—but massively difficult.

“Bath with Elumeng in the same room.”

Su Yuewei’s hands shook holding the list. She looked up at the smiling Elumeng, bitterly stuffing it into her ink-jade bracelet.

“I absolutely won’t squeeze into this tiny bathroom with you! Absolutely!” She shook her head. Shame built into anger at Elumeng.

For a newly transformed girl, this was too much—bare in the bathroom together… Imagining them crammed in, no barriers…

Impossible, no matter how she thought! On the train, clothes separated them. Now straight to…

“But this is tomorrow’s interest! Skip it, and the day after you owe two days’ worth!” Elumeng didn’t force it. Better—let interest pile up for more control.

If Su Yuewei never paid, she could enforce collection, making her fully hers.

“No means no! I protest this arbitrary interest!” Su Yuewei shook her head. Even if she jumped…

Well, scared of death and heights—she couldn’t. But delaying? Absolutely. Just huggy trash tasks full of Elumeng’s bad taste—she wouldn’t do them!

“I follow bank rules strictly! Bathing together is worth a day’s interest on thirty thousand.” Elumeng stood akimbo, reasonable.

She even felt she was losing out! Sharing a room with an angel—she should charge Su Yuewei!

Both felt shortchanged. Su Yuewei couldn’t accept due to pre-transformation memories. Elumeng felt she cheapened herself.

Who profited?

In the end, Elumeng didn’t budge on the bath task. Su Yuewei refused to yield—she wouldn’t do it.

“Is this me now…” Warm water showered Su Yuewei, washing away the day’s dust.

She stood before the mirror, seriously admiring her face for the first time. Cute features, petite frame, soft voice—combined, a killer in this world!

“Weak, pitiful, helpless…” Su Yuewei changed into the academy uniform and exited the bathroom.

“Milk and fried rice on the table are for you. It’s late—only this was available.” Elumeng sat on the living room sofa. She’d ordered delivery to the island from the only open place: Vampire Maid Bar.

“Mhm, deduct from future salary, okay?”

“…Whatever, Little Yuewei.”
