"Huh? What happened?" Vill-V's overly startled voice interrupted Chen Luo's thoughts.

Chen Luo raised his gaze, skipping past Vill-V's tightly pressed lips, stiff with surprise, and saw the rather horrified expression on her face.

"Shouldn't I be the one asking you that?" Chen Luo countered.

"Ababa?" Vill-V tilted her head.

"Wait, Chen Luo, let me explain. I really don't know anything. I thought I was already invincible, but I didn't expect another personality to be even bolder." Great Magician Vill-V was dumbfounded.

"You mean...?"

"At Fire Moth's New Year's gala, you'll perform the vanishing act, and I'll be the person who vanishes."

"...Deal." Vill-V held out her hand, and Chen Luo shook it.

Still... even if she said that, Great Magician Vill-V would not give up on investigating.

A magic-show partner? I want
