Marisa suddenly laughed out loud, and her smile was as bright as the sun shining through the clouds.
She jumped down from the bookshelf lightly, her black boots making a dull sound on the carpet, but the books in her arms were steady.
"Because it's you~"
She tilted her head, and her golden hair playfully rose from under the brim of her hat.
"If it were someone else, I wouldn't be so casual."
The moonlight outlined a hazy silhouette behind her, making this magician who was always smiling and smiling look somewhat sincere.
But Patchouli knew her too well——
The slightly upturned corners of his mouth clearly still contained a hint of mischief.
"Oh, forget it then."
Patchouli interrupted her coldly, a hint of impatience flashing in her purple eyes. The magic ball of light at her fingertips expanded slightly, reflecting the undisguised disgust on her face.
"Stop acting! Do you think such corny lines can convince me?"
She raised her hand and covered the corner of her mouth with her sleeve, as if she was really disgusted, her brows were furrowed so tightly that they could kill a mosquito.
“Put the book back.
Her voice was low and dangerous, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between her teeth.
"—Also, what you said is so disgusting that it gives me goosebumps!"
The witch showed an unconcealable look of disgust on her face.
Marisa blinked, then burst out laughing. Not only was she not frightened, but instead, her shoulders were shaking with laughter, as if she had heard something amusing.
"Oh, Patch is still so dishonest~"
She deliberately dragged out her tone and even leaned forward, her golden eyes full of mischief.
"You're obviously happy to see me, but you have to act like you're disgusted—"
"Who's happy to see you?!"
Patchouli finally couldn't hold it anymore, and the magic ball of light in her hand exploded with a "pop", turning into a few wisps of dissipating purple smoke.
Her face flushed slightly, whether it was because of anger or for some other reason.
"Put the book back quickly! And then—"
She took a deep breath and uttered the last sentence through gritted teeth:
"—get out of my library!"
...................
At this tense moment——
"boom!"
The heavy oak door of the library was suddenly pushed open, and the door panel hit the stone wall with a deafening sound.
The magic runes embedded in the door frame flickered violently for a few times, then dimmed.
"What's going on, Patch! There seems to be a foreign presence in the library?!"
Zhou Yuan's hurried voice came along with messy footsteps.
He strode into the room, the hem of his black windbreaker fluttering behind him, bringing up a gust of wind.
When he saw the situation inside the room clearly, he froze in place as if struck by lightning.
Marisa's reaction was even more exaggerated. Her eyes widened as if struck by lightning, her golden pupils shrinking sharply into thin lines.
The ahoge hair under the black witch hat stood straight up, and she maintained a funny posture of holding a book. She turned her head mechanically to look at Zhou Yuan, then turned back stiffly to stare at Patchouli, her mouth open so wide that a pumpkin could be stuffed in.
"This this--"
Her voice suddenly rose an octave, and her black witch hat tilted to one side due to excessive shock, revealing a few strands of mischievous golden hair.
The ancient books in her arms fell to the ground with a clatter, but she had no time to pick them up.
"Patch, you have a boyfriend?!"
Patchouli's expression instantly became brilliant.
First it turned red like a cooked crab, then it turned blue, and finally it turned completely black like the bottom of a pot.
The magic book in her hand fell to the ground with a "click", and a dangerous light flashed in her amethyst-like eyes. Even the air around her began to distort due to the fluctuations of magic power.
"What are you talking about?!"
She squeezed out these words from between her teeth, each syllable carrying a chilling murderous intent.
Marisa completely ignored the danger and jumped up excitedly, her black boots leaving two distinct indentations on the carpet.
"Wow! I didn't expect Patch to be able to—"
She couldn't finish her sentence.
A dazzling beam of purple magic whizzed past the brim of her hat and blasted a charred hole in the wall. The smell of burnt parchment immediately filled the air.
"shut up!"
Patchouli's roar shook the entire library, and the chandelier on the ceiling swayed violently, casting messy light and shadows.
"And you!"
She turned towards Zhou Yuan suddenly, and the jeweled hair ornaments in her purple hair jingled because of her violent movements.
"Come and help me catch her!"
Zhou Yuan awkwardly raised his hands in surrender, and the cuffs of his black windbreaker slipped down, revealing several traces of magical restraints on his wrists that had not yet faded.
Just then, he noticed that Marisa was winking at him and secretly giving him a thumbs-up with a mischievous smile on her face.
This action made Patchouli completely explode.
"Mist! Rain! Magic! Ris! Sand!"
Her screams nearly blew the roof off.
"I am going to kill you!!!"
Marisa laughed and dodged another magic beam with a backflip, her black skirt spreading out like butterfly wings.
She swiftly rushed to the window, and before leaving, she cast a coquettish glance at Zhou Yuan:
"Excuse me, please continue."
She jumped lightly onto the windowsill, the moonlight gilded her with a layer of silver.
"He's quite handsome~"
"Stop!!!!"
Patchouli's roar chased the black and white figure and disappeared into the night.
A gust of night wind blew in from the open window, carrying a few rose petals, gently blowing across the library, which was full of messy things, and Zhou Yuan, who was standing there with a confused look on his face.
Chapter 84 Marisa: Do you want to be my friend?
“Ugh! Wuuwuwu——!”
Marisa, who was tied up with magic ropes, twisted in the air like a fish out of water, with a black witch hat hanging crookedly on her head and her golden hair becoming messy due to her struggle.
Her amber eyes were wide open, and the magical silencing ball stuffed in her mouth made her only able to utter incoherent protests.
Patchouli was clutching Zhou Yuan's arm tightly, gasping for breath, her amethyst-like eyes still pulsating with rage.
Her pale cheeks were flushed unnaturally due to the intense exercise, and the wide collar of her witch robe was slightly open, revealing her delicate collarbone.
But this witch, who usually pays attention to etiquette, didn't care about her manners at all at this moment, and didn't even notice that she was almost nestled in a man's arms.
"Finally, we caught this troublemaker..."
Her voice was still panting, and her fingertips tightened unconsciously, her delicately trimmed nails almost digging into Zhou Yuan's sleeves.
Zhou Yuan froze in place awkwardly, and could clearly feel the soft touch on his arm.
He cautiously glanced at Marisa, who was hanging from the ceiling.
The blonde girl was blinking at him frantically, her body, which was tied up like a dumpling, still twisting comically, like a butterfly entangled in a spider web.
"Um...Miss Patch..."
Zhou Yuan spoke tentatively.
"Should we put her down first..."
"no!"
Patchouli raised her head suddenly, and the jeweled hair ornaments in her purple hair jingled.
"This time I must teach this habitual book thief a lesson!"
As she was about to raise her hand to cast a spell, she stumbled due to the big movement and fell directly into Zhou Yuan's arms.
The faint herbal scent from the witch suddenly hit Zhou Yuan in the face, causing him to hold his breath instantly.
On the ceiling, Marisa's struggles suddenly stopped.
She narrowed her eyes, and a muffled laugh came out of her stuffed mouth. Her eyes darted back and forth between the two of them, clearly writing the three words "I understand".
Patchouli lowered her head following her gaze, only then realizing her inappropriate behavior.
With a "swish", her whole body turned red from the tips of her ears to the base of her neck, and she jumped out of Zhou Yuan's arms as if she had been electrocuted.
"It's all your fault!"
She pointed at Marisa in anger, the magic light condensed at her fingertips flickering.
"If you hadn't been running around..."
Marisa blinked innocently, and her bound body twisted a few times, like a fish that had been caught on shore.
She deliberately used her eyes to indicate the ambiguous distance between them, which made Patchouli feel embarrassed and annoyed again.
Zhou Yuan held his forehead helplessly, and suddenly regretted why he got involved in this "war" between witches.
......
Zhou Yuan rubbed his temples, his eyes moving back and forth between the two of them.
He pointed at the blonde girl who was tightly bound with magic ropes. She was winking at him like a naughty elf who had been caught.
"so..."
He considered his words, with a hint of helplessness in his voice.
"Who on earth is this person?"
Patchouli snorted coldly upon hearing this, flicked her wide sleeves, and a hint of displeasure flashed in her amethyst-like eyes:
"Just a book thief who doesn't know his place."
She deliberately emphasized the last few words, her fingertips unconsciously stroking the gilded spine of the magic book.
"Hey, hey, that's too hurtful~"
Marisa finally spat out the silencing ball in her mouth. The black witch hat hung crookedly on her head, and her golden hair was messy because of her previous struggle.
She twisted her bound body like a caterpillar, but a heartless smile still hung on her face:
"I'm a legitimate magician! Kirisame Marisa, please give me your guidance~"
Zhou Yuan raised his eyebrows, his eyes falling on the several heavy ancient books tightly held in the girl's arms——
The gold-embossed titles of "Advanced Elemental Manipulation" and "Analysis of Forbidden Spells" were faintly visible in the candlelight.
The corners of his mouth twitched:
"So this is your way of being 'serious'?"
"Oh, don't worry about these details~"
Marisa smiled and shook her head, and the stars on her hat jingled.
"Patch's collection of books is a treasure of the wizarding world! I'm just... uh... borrowing it for reference!"
