Kiana Is My Wife!

In fact, in an all-girls' school like Senba Academy, a male student stood out like a sore thumb.

The reason Dong Moxuan had managed to stay in Senba Academy for so long without being discovered—even when he was, ahem, taking advantage of the convenience store and snatching bread—was that he had used Honkai Energy to lower his presence.

To explain, although Honkai Energy had a rather flashy name, its essence was nothing more than the ordinary power of nature. It existed everywhere, though its concentration was frighteningly high in areas where Honkai had occurred.

According to the terminology of the Type-Moon world, Honkai Energy was actually "Great Source Mana."

Although this world was so malicious toward humanity and civilization that once Honkai Energy reached a certain concentration, it would inflict fatal damage on the human body,

Honkai Energy was actually quite similar to the spiritual energy found in xuanhuan novels. It was roughly the difference between H2O and SO2.

Well, the difference wasn't that great.

Since Honkai Energy was supposedly a natural force, and its essence wasn't much different from the "Great Source Mana" of the Type-Moon worldview, wasn't it only natural that using Honkai Energy could produce an effect similar to magic and lower one's presence?

Although he was the only person in the entire world who could use Honkai Energy to do something like this.

Ahem, back to the point. Although he had used Honkai Energy to lower his presence, he had only lowered it; he hadn't become invisible. There was still an insurmountable gap between him and Miss Megumi, the Grand Assassin Saint, whose presence concealment was EX-ranked.

Under normal circumstances, it would have been fine. But in a face-to-face situation like this, if the other person's willpower and powers of observation were strong enough, there was still a good chance he would be discovered.

And the girl before Dong Moxuan, whom Kiana called the Class Monitor and whose appearance and bearing greatly resembled Fu Hua Shang Xian, clearly belonged to the type whose powers of observation and willpower were both beyond ordinary.

As a result, Dong Moxuan was now in a very passive position.

After all, a male student climbing over the wall into an all-girls' school...

He would definitely be treated as a pervert and thrown out, right?

The newspaper might even run a headline tomorrow like, "Shock! Silver-Haired Man Sneaks into Girls' School and Does This..."

However, just as Dong Moxuan was considering what excuse he could use to convince the girl before him and avoid the ending he had imagined, the White-haired Ball beside him suddenly put an arm around his shoulders.

"Class Monitor, you mean her? She's my cousin. I forgot something at home, so I specifically asked her to bring it to me. She just looks like a boy—she's actually a girl!"

Kiana said this with an awkward laugh while frantically signaling at Dong Moxuan with her eyes.

"Th-that's right. Sister Kiana forgot to bring her homework, so I came here to deliver it for her!"

Faced with Kiana's hint, Dong Moxuan only needed a second to react. He followed her lead and said the same thing.

His voice was naturally rather androgynous. With his throat slightly lowered, it actually sounded no different from that of a husky-voiced beauty.

"Is that so?"

The Black-haired Girl wasn't an idiot. Looking at Kiana with her arm around Dong Moxuan's shoulders, she suspiciously pushed up her glasses.

"Of... of course it is! Class Monitor, don't you believe me?"

"Kiana, why do you seem so nervous?"

"Ner... nervous? N-no, I'm not! I'm always like this. You must have seen wrong, Class Monitor!"

You call that not nervous?

You're stammering!

Looking at the White-haired Ball beside him, Dong Moxuan couldn't help complaining inwardly.

Although he didn't know why Kiana was helping him cover things up, this White-haired Ball was indeed hopeless at handling matters. It seemed he would still have to rely on himself.

With that thought, Dong Moxuan prepared to use his secret technique—the (Physical) Memory Loss Technique—to resolve the matter.

Unexpectedly, after hearing Kiana's explanation, the Black-haired Girl didn't expose her lie. Instead, she gave Dong Moxuan a meaningful look before saying softly to Kiana, "People from outside the school can't stay in Senba Academy for long. Have your cousin leave as soon as she finishes delivering the homework. Also, the equipment needs to be moved before afternoon classes begin. I have something else to do, so I'll take my leave first."

With that, the girl turned and left.

"Phew..."

Only after watching the girl leave did Kiana release Dong Moxuan and let out a sigh of relief.

"Even the Class Monitor couldn't see through my scheme. I really am a genius!"

As the Black-haired Girl's back slowly disappeared from view, Kiana immediately planted her hands on her hips, looking rather pleased with herself.

That's not it at all!

Seeing the Paramecium's smug expression, Dong Moxuan felt a little embarrassed.

Although he didn't know why Kiana's Class Monitor hadn't exposed him and Kiana, Dong Moxuan could say with absolute certainty that the girl had seen through something.

"Um, Heroine, thanks for that just now!"

Although Kiana's actions hadn't succeeded, her goodwill was certainly worth thanking.

Moreover, the reason that girl had let him off just now was probably closely related to Kiana.

"Hmph, don't flatter yourself. I didn't do it for you!"

Kiana didn't appreciate Dong Moxuan's thanks. Instead, she folded her arms across her chest with an especially tsundere air.

I don't remember this Paramecium having a tsundere attribute!

Dong Moxuan complained inwardly at the sight.

"Then, Heroine, can I leave now?"

Seeing that the matter had been resolved, Dong Moxuan wanted to make his escape.

"Leave? Where do you think you're going? We haven't settled our account yet!"

At Dong Moxuan's words, Kiana's expression immediately turned vicious.

She cracked her knuckles and spoke to Dong Moxuan in an unfriendly tone.

Dong Moxuan: "..."

Seeing that Kiana had no intention of letting the matter go, Dong Moxuan sighed helplessly.

"Then what do you want, Heroine?"

"My name isn't Heroine. It's Kiana!"

Kiana was dissatisfied with the way Dong Moxuan addressed her.

"Pervert, and you?"

I'm not a pervert, damn it!

This Paramecium is way too arrogant!

Though he complained inwardly, Dong Moxuan didn't dare show it. He gave an awkward laugh and stated his name.

"Dong Moxuan."

"Dong Moxuan...?"

After hearing Dong Moxuan's answer, Kiana rubbed her chin and fell into thought.

However, that expression didn't last long.

"Never mind. Um... Dong Moxuan, right? Hurry up and come with me to the storage room to help move some things!"

"Why do I have to go too?"

"What? Do you have a problem with that?"

"..."

Looking at Kiana, who was cracking her knuckles with a "kind" expression, Dong Moxuan very wisely kept his mouth shut.
