What should I do if the hero is resurrected in the Monster Girl Encyclopedia?

Chapter 165 Obola

"Oh...they kissed! Wow, she even wrapped Lord Mirad up with her tail! What a clever idea, that cold-faced snake...I'll try using the fairy's shrinking magic next time..."

Hiolitta lowered her small hands that had been tightly covering her mouth. Even though she had tried to keep her voice as quiet as possible, the excitement overflowing from her words was impossible to suppress. Her eyes sparkled as she quickly glanced at Lorenz beside her, who had her ear pressed against the wall. Lorenz happened to look back at her.

The two looked at each other and smiled sweetly.

The next second, Loran and Hyolita moved at the same time.

She deftly tidied her always somewhat disheveled gray-white short hair, then lifted her right leg and hopped in an acrobatic manner to put on her thin stockings.

The other instantly changed clothes, putting on the adorable pajamas that her fourth sister had just sent her... These two clever and talented individuals smiled sweetly, just waiting for a good opportunity to rush into Orpheus's room and unleash the celebratory fireworks magic they had prepared.

"You two sit down."

Obora sighed and extinguished the magic mirror in her hand. Then, she grabbed one of the two restless monsters in each hand, who were trying to run off to the other side to cause trouble.

"Wow, can't we celebrate this big event too? My buddy finally confessed to his first love and succeeded... even though the process was a bit tortuous, bumpy, and bumpy..."

Obora glanced at Loran; the other's eager demeanor didn't seem like she was just going to celebrate.

But after hearing her words, the child obediently sat down, his furry ears twitching slightly as he listened to the sounds from the other side of the wall, while his toes under his bottom twitched.

"Sigh, good student Loran will listen to Teacher Obora and sit properly on the ground, listening to your sister Hyolitta and Lord Mirad celebrate and party until they're drunk, oh ho ho ho..."

Hiolitta put her hand to her lips and let out a standard villainous three-part laugh. She narrowed her eyes, looking at Loran kneeling beside Obora, her red eyes full of mockery.

She had just changed into a bear-patterned pajama set that one of her older sisters had given her. Turning around, the openwork design on the back revealed her pale, white back… almost blinding Luo Gen. Upon seeing this, the latter simply gave her the middle finger in silence.

Obora tightened her grip on Hiolitta's shoulder slightly. "Your Highness, you don't want to be exposed for using Mirad's old clothes as a pillow, do you?"

Hiolitta's movements froze instantly, and when she turned her head, it looked like it was rusty.

"Haha, on another note..."

She sat obediently beside Luo Gen, her tail drooping listlessly.

"Oh my, Sister Hiolitta, why didn't you go next door to celebrate with Brother Mirad?"

Luo Gen's tone became innocent, and her upper body swayed affectedly.

"It's such a great opportunity! With your figure, it shouldn't be too difficult for you to sneak into Sister Orpheus's tail, right? Hehe."

"I'll bite you, you despicable, scheming woman who secretly grew bigger after turning into a demon! Don't think I don't know what you're up to!"

"Hmm, I hit a nerve~ Want to know what I did with that superfluous thing you mentioned? Hmm, do you want to know? Sister Hyolita?"

"Oh dear, actually I mastered the child-rejuvenation magic a long time ago! And there's even a matching 'child-rejuvenation magic' for a one-day trial... It's just a pity I haven't been able to find a test subject yet?"

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have commented on your figure. You're still young and have a lot of room to grow."

"...It would be better to turn you into someone with a completely flat road, wouldn't it?"

"Actually, I developed quite early; I wasn't considered young even in elementary school, you know? If the principle behind infantilization magic is reversing magical energy to rejuvenate, then I'll most likely be able to..."

Luo Geng proudly puffed out her chest, causing her clothes to swell and tremble.

"However, Mirad probably, perhaps, doesn't like that type... right?"

"..."

The two bickered for a moment, then suddenly stopped, casting inquisitive glances at Obola, who seemed utterly bewildered. As a veteran member of the Sabas order, she was surely qualified to speak on such matters.

"...He probably has some of the talents of the Sabas Cult."

After a moment's thought, Obora spoke in a somewhat uncertain tone,

"But that's not the point. At least for now... let's give them some space to be alone."

"I know, I just wanted to lighten the mood because I saw you were thinking about this and that again, Professor Opola..."

Luo Gen pouted, and met the gaze of Hiolitta, whose small mouth was slightly open and whose eyes were wide open.

...? Sister, I thought we were on the same page, but it turns out you're really craving it? Where did our unspoken understanding from last night go?
Obora ignored the complex exchange between the two kneeling beside her. The lively atmosphere of everyone working together to overcome difficulties was certainly pleasant, but what those two truly needed now was an environment where they could only be with each other. And besides, Orpheus had finally been accepted by Mirad… she was genuinely happy for her former colleague.

Her atonement is also on the right track.

Thanks to the monsters' years of searching and gathering, the relatives and friends of the Creteans have been able to be resurrected... This is also thanks to Lord Hel's compassion, who did not want to see separation and death. Even souls that had been separated from the world for decades could be found and awakened again in the underworld.

But I am different. Much of the blood on my hands did not come from Cretia; much of it entered the cycle of reincarnation without any ties.

If only death could easily resolve this...

The gruesome wound on her neck was burning again, etched into her flesh and blood, causing a tingling, itchy sensation like thousands of ants gnawing at her, making her scratch it gently with her claws. She also longed to pass through the thin wall in front of her right now and kneel down.

Then, like a docile lamb, rub your cheek against the other person's knee. Then wait for the heavy, rough hand to choke your neck, slowly, slowly taking away your breath.

In that slightly dizzying, suffocating feeling, her pupils would dazzle and her attention would be out of focus. She would show a smile even brighter than Kieslfield's. She would praise his great achievements in a dead language that none of the girls, including him, could understand. She would silently do the cleaning work after the celebration and revelry, so meticulously that not a single speck of dirt was left, not even between the tables and chairs and the walls, or inside the water pipes.

There are so many things she wants to do for him.

……

...She also longed for his love.

but…

“…Professor Obora”.

It's Luo Gen. Her new student. His lover.

Obora looked up at the gray-haired girl who was gazing at her with worried eyes.

She envied her, just as she envied Ophiuchus.

But how can a teacher envy their students?
Composing herself, Obora turned her head, trying to keep her voice steady and maintain her professorial authority. "What's wrong?"

“Although I don’t know what you’re thinking… but it will happen! Xiao Xi said she will fully support and help you, and so will I!” Luo Gen stood up abruptly. She was almost two heads taller than Aborra, forcing Aborra to look up at her.

Hiolitta tugged at Lorenz's sleeve in annoyance, "Shut up! Why aren't you being cunning at a time like this? Don't let the person involved know about this, or it'll ruin the surprise!"

...Two silly children.

Obora looked at Hiolitta, who was trying to get Loran to sit down, and said, "Hiolitta, please help me contact... Her Highness the Fourth Princess."

"Hmm? Professor Obora, you actually know Fourth Sister? But thinking about it, it makes sense, considering you've been around since the beginning of Demon King Sabas's creation... But why are you looking for her?"

"She invited me a long time ago."

"Oh."

Hyolitta took out the magic mirror and typed away for a while, then sent the message to Tiluella on the other end.

"By the way, Lord Mirad bribed me with a kiss that didn't involve sticking out his tongue and a not-too-outrageous request, you know? I'm firmly on his side now, so if you join the radicals and a conflict breaks out, I won't hold back!"

"Who said I was joining?"

Looking at his unfilial disciple, who was eagerly anticipating the matter of beating his master to prove his Dao, Epol twitched the corner of his mouth.

...Luo Geng is such a worry-free child.

"Hey, I have an idea!"

Luo Gen clapped her hands, the crisp sound catching the attention of the other two.
“Professor Obola, what do you think? Why don’t you try the Enrichment Magic? I think Mirad seems to like it... You’ll be a professor with long, straight black hair, a great figure, and a cold exterior but a warm heart, plus some private tutoring after class, hohoho... I think even that innocent blockhead Mirad will be moved by you.”

...It doesn't seem to be that easy.

Siolitta reminded her, "Actually, Enrichment Magic is considered a forbidden technique that violates the core principles of the Sabas Order, where Professor Obora belongs, isn't it?"

"Well, it's considered heresy after all, so I understand... Eh? As your student, Professor Obora, should I also...?"

Luo Gen was shocked and clutched her chest. Looking at Xiolita's slender body, she thought for a moment, "Actually, it's not impossible..."

"...Hehehe, although it's called a forbidden technique, quite a few Baphomets, witches, and magical creatures actually use it behind the scenes~ Teacher Obora, right?"

"I do not know."

That's true. Everyone uses it secretly without a care in the world, and occasionally one or two forgetful souls might forget to dispel the spell before attending a meeting, but everyone just turns a blind eye.

The Sabas Order appears to be well-organized... but in reality, its rules and the upper echelons' control over its members are very weak, which is not much different from most monster groups.

...If you were to ask a Baphomet whether she'd be happier in her original form with her older brother, or in her evolved form...she'd probably just smile and say, "I don't know~ but if I had to choose, I'd still go with her original form, right?"

“Perfect timing, since you're both here, and they need a little more time, let's have a simple and straightforward magic lesson. Just about Enrichment and Rejuvenation…”

And so, Luo Ran's eyes died.

Hyolita, meanwhile, had already begun flapping her wings, preparing to flee.

Obola coughed a few times, and the two monsters had no choice but to sit obediently.

Tonight is still long... she can teach so much more.
