Which reading system would you prefer for Pie Novels?

Seeing me recoil, the two of them retracted their ears and tails and grinned at me.

“Just a joke,” one said. “Not all wolf clan members kill vampires. Besides, the Young Master likes you, so how would I dare lay a hand on you? Right, Kelo?”

“Yeah, yeah, we wouldn’t. We only take on wolf characteristics when protecting the Young Master. Usually we’re just like normal people. Don’t worry—we just wanted to see your reaction.”

“Phew… Okay.”

These girls really love their jokes. And just how long is this trip back?

Looking around, all I could see was the “sea” beside us; the moon hung dead center in the vast darkness. It must be midnight.

“Chuye, I heard from the Young Master that you’re not from this world?”

“Mm… yeah.”

Just then, Kelo, with her gray hair, patted my shoulder.

“So, that day you were…”

She looked at me with curiosity.

“Well… I’d just arrived in this world when… you two…”

“Hahahaha, sorry! We only brought you back on the Young Master’s orders. But… you don’t regret it, do you?”

“’Brought’ isn’t quite the right word, but… I’m not too regretful.”

After all, I didn’t have the strength to fight back, so being captured was inevitable…

On the other side, Ke Ying complained, “We should have explained things from the start… It’s all your fault, Kelo.”

“What? How is it all my fault…”

Then Ke Ying handed the reins to Kelo.

“Little Chuye, what was your old world like?”

“Not great, but I don’t dislike it either. But it seems I can’t go back now, so I have no choice but…”

“Hey, Ke Ying… see what you did? You’ve made Little Chuye…”

Ke Ying looked at me.

“Sorry for bringing up your…”

“It’s fine. I’m perfectly okay. There’s nothing to miss in that world anyway, so I’ll just start over here.”

I said that just to lighten the mood.

“Kelo, how much longer until we’re back?”

“When dawn breaks, we’ll be about there. Go inside and watch over the Young Master.”

I nodded, pushed open the door, and found Fuwelle exactly as I’d left her. Looking closely at this girl—so young looking yet already centuries old… Sigh.

I sighed, stood up, and sat on the chair across from her, closing my eyes. ‘Did vampires even sleep at night?’

After a while, I opened my eyes again. ‘Sure enough, I couldn’t sleep. So boring…’

Leaning against the wall, I slowly recalled fragments of my life in that world. I’d really lived like nothing—just another nobody at school, unremarkable and useless. But then why did Xiao Linlin stick with me? Why did she throw herself at me in that moment of crisis…

“Little Chuye?”

Fuwelle slowly sat up and stretched dramatically.

“You’re awake?”

She pushed open the window. Outside was still pitch black, but a faint red glow was visible in the distance.

“Come here. Let me hold you.”

She looked at me, arms open.

“You’re impossible…”

Although I was reluctant, I’d promised her earlier, so I slowly walked over and let her embrace me.

“Hehe… This is the happiest.”

“Huh? Is it? I don’t feel it.”

“It’s okay. One day you will.”

“Well… I hope so. But still, I need to thank you for these past few days.”

“Hmph~ Next time, I won’t let you just disappear.”

I broke free from her hug and saw she was smiling at me goofily.

“How is Xiao Linlin?”

“She’s still searching everywhere for you. When we get back, you must thank her properly.”

“… Okay.”

‘Still the same as ever?’
