The next morning, sunlight streamed through the window into the room, and the cheerful songs of birds and the fragrant aroma of flowers drifted in from outside.
However, Baifeng Uesugi and the other two were still sound asleep, their breathing steady and deep. After all, they hadn't slept all night and only rested when the sun rose.
Suddenly, the silence was shattered by the deafening roar of an airplane.
The sudden noise startled the three of them awake. Their eyes snapped open, and their faces showed astonishment.
The sleepiness vanished instantly, replaced by confusion and bewilderment. They rubbed their eyes, sat up, and looked at each other, trying to understand what had happened. The room was filled with the echo of an airplane engine.
Baifeng Uesugi knew perfectly well that Maya Yotsuba had sent someone to find him, so he calmly reached out and gently patted the two girls' shoulders to comfort them, saying, "Don't worry, it's Sister Maya who sent someone to pick me up. You two can continue to rest peacefully."
"But... Bai Feng, we still want to see you off." Shizuku Kitayama said as she tried to sit up in bed, but suddenly felt a strong wave of discomfort wash over her.
At the same time, Honoka Mitsui felt the same way; her beautiful brows furrowed slightly, and her expression revealed that she was also somewhat uncomfortable. Nevertheless, deep down, they still very much hoped to personally see Baifeng Uesugi off.
"Oh dear, you two, stop struggling and lie down to rest! You can't keep pushing yourselves like this. Be good, okay?"
Seeing this, Baifeng Uesugi quickly reached out and pressed the two of them back onto the bed, gently instructing them to rest and recuperate.
"OK."
Hearing this, the two women had no choice but to give up and obediently agreed.
After getting dressed, Baifeng Uesugi went outside. He took a deep breath, enjoying the fresh air, and then took firm steps.
A staff member in a suit stood at the door. Seeing Baifeng Uesugi emerge, he smiled and approached him, gesturing for him to follow. Baifeng Uesugi nodded, and the hatch slowly opened, the gangway descending.
Baifeng Uesugi stepped onto the gangway and entered the cabin step by step. The cabin was spacious and bright, with comfortable and luxurious seats. He found his seat, fastened his seatbelt, and waited for takeoff.
As the pilot started the engine, the sound of the engine gradually increased, becoming deafening. The enormous thrust caused the plane to begin to glide slowly forward, its speed increasing. Finally, the plane left the ground, took off, and soared into the sky.
Shizuku Kitayama and Honoka Mitsui peered out the window, their eyes glued to the plane. They watched it recede into the distance, gradually shrinking into a tiny dot before disappearing into the horizon. Even though they could no longer make out the plane, the two refused to look away, as if that would allow them to spend a little more time with Baifeng Uesugi.
After a long while, until their eyes started to ache, the two gently closed their eyes and began to rest. However, even in their sleep, they kept murmuring Baifeng Uesugi's name, seemingly harboring endless longing and yearning for him.
Baifeng Uesugi sat in his airplane seat, looking exhausted. After all, he hadn't rested all night; there were obvious dark circles under his eyes, and his gaze revealed a hint of weariness. Although he was now a magician, this couldn't keep up. After boarding the plane, he immediately closed his eyes, as if trying to recover his lost energy through sleep.
As time passed, the plane arrived at the Yotsuba Family at dusk.
Just then, Baifeng Uesugi, still fast asleep, heard Maya Yotsuba's voice. Her voice was soft and gentle, like a spring breeze:
" Bai Feng, wake up, we're home."
He slowly opened his heavy eyelids, and his vision gradually cleared. However, the weariness in his eyes did not dissipate, as if he were shrouded in an invisible pressure.
When he realized that the person in front of him was Maya Yotsuba, his body instinctively wrapped around her slender waist as if by conditioned reflex, burying his head deep in her warm embrace, and acting like a child.
" Sister Maya, I want to sleep a little longer..."
Maya Yotsuba gazed tenderly at Baifeng Uesugi in her arms, her eyes filled with tenderness and affection. She reached out and gently stroked the stray hairs on his forehead, whispering:
"Okay, then let you sleep a little longer." Her voice was as melodious and sweet as heavenly music, filled with endless tenderness and affection.
Immediately afterwards, Maya Yotsuba carefully picked up Baifeng Uesugi and stepped lightly off the plane. After returning to the room, she gently placed him on the soft and comfortable bed, carefully covered him with a blanket, and then quietly sat by the bed to watch over him.
At this moment, the Yotsuba Family witnessed everything, but they seemed to be used to it. Not one of them dared to look in their direction, as if they were afraid that Maya Yotsuba would notice their gaze and give them a stern scolding.
So they all kept their heads down and worked silently, trying to avoid causing any unnecessary trouble. The whole scene was unusually quiet, with only the soft sounds of breathing and the occasional rustling of clothes mingling together.
Don't let Maya Yotsuba's gender fool you; she's a top-tier magician. Casting a support spell on herself and carrying Baifeng Uesugi is a piece of cake.
Moreover, this amazing support magic was actually taught to Maya Yotsuba by Baifeng Uesugi! Although Maya Yotsuba couldn't directly use her own Mari to cast spells like Baifeng Uesugi, after careful research, Baifeng Uesugi successfully modernized some adjustable buffing Ancient Magic and taught them all to Maya Yotsuba without reservation.
At this moment, Baifeng Uesugi was immersed in that all-too-familiar fragrance, and an indescribable sense of peace welled up in his heart. For the past few years, he had been living away from home, leading an extremely tense life, constantly worried about being attacked by Demon Hunters in his sleep. Even in First High School, he dared not relax in the slightest. Only at this moment could he truly relax and allow his mind to be completely soothed.
After carrying Baifeng Uesugi back to her room, Maya Yotsuba Baifeng Uesugi was about to put him on the bed to rest, but after hesitating for a moment, she decided to just hold him and let him rest.
