C.1507: A miraculous existence

So, the chaotic night ended just like that.

The results were pleasing.

Kuro promised to stop attacking Illya. Illya can also stop worrying about an assassin on her tail.

Also, they got to know Kuro a little better.

She is Illyas other personality given form by the powers of the Archer Card.

Naturally, they still had questions for her.

Why was she there as an alternate personality to Illyas?

She also seemed to know a few individuals who decided her fate before she was born, suggesting she knew more than she let on.

She also told everyone about how she was sealed in Illya.

As Kuro didnt want to continue the conversation, they stopped questioning her.

Illyas background seemed to have more details that Kuro omitted from them. In any case, he is sure Illya isnt just a normal student.

Rin and Luvia said they would investigate. Meanwhile, Illya went home thinking about her circumstances and current outlook. Miyu also looked like she had some thoughts on the matter but she went home too.

Kuros appearance turned their lives upside down.

No, it isnt just them. Wu Yan is going to have a rough time too.

The reason?

Well

I am sleeping with Onii-chan, just the two of us!

She declared to Hinagiku, Mikoto, and Wu Yan who promptly turned to statues.

Sharing the same room?

Mikoto chuckled awkwardly.

Isnt that inappropriate?

Yeah

Hinagiku tried to advise Kuro against that idea.

Kuro. Youre a girl, as an eleven-year-old girl, you should think twice about sleeping in the same room as a lolic-, I mean, a guy

You were going to label me a lolicon, werent you?

Wu Yans lip twitched.

Onee-chan I have my reasons.

Kuro-chan fidgeted despite Hinagiku and Mikotos kind-hearted advice.

I need mana to live. I dont know when I might need to resupply. What will I do if I suddenly need mana resupply and Onii-chan isnt near me?

Kuro-chan sighed, there was a hint of impish light in her eyes.

Onee-chan, do you want to see me disappear?

No, its not like that

Hinagiku and Mikoto couldnt laugh this off.

You said you needed to resupply, that means

Yes!

Kuro touched her lips while blushing.

I will need to get up close and friendlier with Onii-chan

Wu Yan heard something break within him. He was trying to assimilate himself with the environment, he was so close to becoming one with nature too.

Hinagiku and Mikoto turned into statues again.

To live

Kuro explained.

Or, are the two lovely ladies who are suspiciously close to their Onii-chan afraid of little ol me?

What do you think?!

You were so aggressive when you slipped your tongue into our man. And, you look like youre a minx too, who wouldnt be afraid of you?!

Hinagiku and Mikoto had to rein their righteous fury.

The two ladies didnt want to risk Kuros death because of their emotions.

But, they were still reluctant.

They were so hung up on the idea that they didnt even consider that Kuro could refill her mana first before sleeping. That would have minimized if not outright eliminate the risk of a mana exhaustion event during the night.

Wu Yans mana can give her enough power to stay in this plane of existence for weeks, much less a single night.

Plus, she could extract mana from other people too. Hinagiku and Mikoto could supply mana as well.

No, they were bamboozled by the fast-talking Chloe.

Ah, fine!

Mikoto roared.

Suit yourself!

Yan

Hinagiku turned toward him with a radiant, beautiful, but dangerous smile like that of a thorny rose.

Keep your you-know-what in your pants, shes a kid, you hear me?

Ah

Wu Yan sighed.

You think I would put my hands on her?

You better dont

Hinagiku and Mikoto left after cautioning him again.

Kuro enjoyed that very much. She was flailing her legs around on the sofa.

Those two ladies were so jealous

Whose fault do you think it is?

He asked begrudgingly.

Anyway, how long does a typical mana recharge cycle last?

I dont know

Kuro shook her head.

I took my magic circuits from Illya and I cant store much. I reckon the kiss just now can keep me going for weeks at a time. Other people cant do that though.

You cant produce mana on your own, huh?

He nodded.

Then, you used the magic power you stole to fight?

Kuro nodded.

Okay, how long can you last without fighting?

I know where youre going with this

Kuro explained.

I expend mana just by being here. My mana will be sapped regardless of usage during fights.

Right now, you could call my existence a miracle

The air turned still.

Wu Yan also gave her the time to collect her thoughts.

Then, she wrapped her arms around his neck before straddling him on the sofa.

A normal resupply would give me a few days at most, assuming I dont fight. But, now, I just found the Holy Grail

Kuro grinned while looking into his eyes. She was also blushing.

Your magic power, the volume, the density, and your regen, I can live forever with you around

Thats why, Onii-chan

She pulled Wu Yans head closer.

Dont leave me, okay?

The sound of lips smacking formed a lewd cacophony against the backdrop of wet slurping sounds.
