I Became a Witch in a World Full of Urban Legends

Chapter 110: Delinquent Urban Legend On Me

Chapter 110: Delinquent Urban Legend On Me

Lu Yibei went back upstairs to sleep. He tossed and turned, unable to sleep. Something seemed to nag at him in his mind.

It seems that Jumang, or at least a subordinate of Jumang, is pursuing him.

Should I just take advantage of the situation and stab her a couple more times to make sure shes dead? So that nothing bad happens in the future?

His eyes slowly drifted to the kitchen knife that rested on his desk, and his eyes darkened.

Holding the knife in his hand with his back against the wall, he approached the staircase quietly.

Just as he reached the middle of the stairs, a bad premonition rose in his heart and his eyes started to burn slightly. It seems that some of his power was returning to him after the girl suppressed it.

Standing still on the stairs, he was suddenly in a trance. The next moment, the scenery started to shift and melt before being blown away by an unknown wind.

When was the light on?

The dark apartment was suddenly lit up, and Lu Yibei was stunned for a moment. When he came back to his senses, he shook his head violently.

No. What I just saw was what she wanted me to see.

This is a big problem. Surely, she wouldnt take revenge on him, being weakened and all.

However, she didnt. He must be safe for now.

Thinking about it, Yibei silently pinned the knife on his waist, restrained the bad premonitions in his heart, and walked down the stairs.

Yibei couldnt help but be stunned upon walking into the living room.

On the sofa were a few pillows stacked on top of each other, and the network cables hugged a vaguely human figure.

When he decided to touch the figure, a laugh burst from his side.

Hah! the girl laughed and pointed at him mockingly. She couldnt believe he fell for the oldest trick in the book.

He felt shame, but he didnt reveal it. It was only then that his eyes landed on the girls figure that leaned by his window sill.

She had already removed the towel and put on her emerald dress. The broken glass in the room was all cleaned up, and sitting by the window, under the faint moonlight, she crushed another piece of his charm into pieces and sprinkled the powder on her still-bleeding wound.

The black mask was placed beside her, and the girls skirt was slightly open. Her delicate collarbone extended to her shoulders, outlining a shallow yet intoxicating figure. Her chest framed her petite body perfectly, and she is perfect.

Emerald hair hung loosely beside her, and it fluttered as if there was wind in the room.

As soon as the powder hits her wound, it generates a thick, emerald mist that envelops her in its cool current.

The more he watched her, the more he felt as if he were tipsy on peach blossom wine.

He forced himself to return to his senses.

Shes still a monster, he thought to himself. She wanted to kill me.

Thinking about it, he restrained his urge to continue looking at the girl and walked straight towards the pillows on the sofa.

Sensing that Lu Yibei had turned back, the girl stopped what she was doing, frowned, and secretly watched his every move.

Lu Yibei walked to the sofa without looking at her and muttered, with his back turned to her, Is there anything I can help you with? Anything to help you feel comfortable?

The girl couldnt help but chuckle.

Is this person a fool? The girl thought with a smile on her face.

Its not funny! he said out loud. I actually came to apologise to you. I know you can kill me with a single thought, but Im still alive. That has to mean something. Its embarrassing to say, but Im scared of dying.

The girl continued to laugh like the currents of a mountainous river, and he couldnt help but feel relieved listening to her laugh.

According to Shui, making a woman laugh means youve already won half the battle. The other half all depends on luck.

Now, it was to quell the beast within her by offering sacrifices and letting her reluctantly forgive you.

The girl may be an ancient being, but she is still a woman. Shuis charming tactics have never failed.

I hurt you, and Ill find a way to help you, he breathed out. But you cant be mad at me! I was just defending myself, right?

I guess youre right! she teased.

Despite her easygoing appearance, she was anxious, and she wanted to return to her domain as soon as possible after recovering.

If she were to leave now, she may encounter danger, like the Night Division or other urban legends. If she were to be caught in a vulnerable state, she would be in trouble.

In fact, she knew countless were coveted after her core. She couldnt say for sure that the boy before her wanted it as well.

Rather than take the risk of leaving, she decided to stay. The kid may have been awkward, but his heart was good.

Since you agreed with me, then

Then, what?

Then Ill kill you!

However, he couldnt find a way to sneakily attack her. She was sitting right beside him, after all.

Should I stab her now or threaten her? Shell see me coming, right? But shes injured, and

Could you explain why you tied me up?

As soon as this remark came out, Lu Yibei felt as if a hammer had just fallen on him.

Ah, well he hesitated to speak, feeling awkward.

Is she implying that I love seeing her tied up? Im not a pervert!

Oh my god, youre sweating, the girl pointed out. Whatever, I dont want to hear it, haha! You probably wanted to play with me when Im weak, right?

I know what you think. You are worried that I will be bad for you, so you want to control me when I am weak, right?

Right

I appreciate the human instinct to survive. You probably werent thinking straight, she smiled. You didnt take advantage of me to stab me, and youre treating me well.

As the girl spoke, she jumped off the window sill and walked over to pat his shoulder.

This gesture warmed his heart, and he could feel it flutter. However, she knew a but was about to appear in her statement.

True enough, her hand rubbed his shoulder as she whispered in his ear, But I am a thousand-year-old being. I know what youre trying to do.

She started to poke at the knife concealed in his waistband.

Whats worse is that Im not your enemy in the first place; the Night Division is. Youre housing urban legends under your roof, and that is explicitly prohibited by the Night Division. Five of them, in fact.

How does she know? Did they come back while he was upstairs? Did she

You Yibei breathed out.

Of course, I ate them! she exclaimed. Im injured! I need to eat to heal!

Lu Yibeis face paled slightly, and there was a burst of anger in his heart. Just when he was about to get angry, he heard the girl say, Im lying to you. I just locked them up in the refrigerator.

Why are you looking at me like that? she pouted. A bunch of little guys just broke into your home, and Im supposed to just welcome them in?

He remained silent.

Alright, lets talk business, the girl said. For the next few days, you will help me collect five cores to help me recover from my injuries, and

Five? Excuse me?

He managed to get the core of four urban legends before and almost lost his life because of it. Now that she was asking for five, it was time to bargain for his life!

Its not a one-way transaction, she assured. Dont you want to know about psychic powers? Or questions about urban legends? I can answer it all; I know everything.

More than the Night Division?

Well, Im sure you dont have the clearance to read everything in the Night Division Records, she smiled. What do you say?

What if I refuse?

Cant help it. Ill just drag both of us to the Night Division. Im a wanted criminal, and youre harbouring a wanted criminal in your house.

This kid is so cowardly. A meaningless threat like this will have him folding, the girl thought.

F*ck, fine. But five cores are too much for me to find.

I know. I dont expect a weak kid like you to collect them quickly, the girl said. So, I have another condition.

Not another unequal treaty You surely are a thousand-year-old scammer.

What is it?

Its not hard at all! She brought her hands up in mock surrender as if reading his thoughts. I just need you to help me find somebody in Huacheng, and youll have somebody helping you.

After all, she is a benevolent goddess.

Okay, what does that person look like?

An urban legend, to be exact, or a Witchshort, a 14- or 15-year-old girl with stunted development and long pink and white hair, and she was wearing

The more Yibei listened to her description, the more he felt that something was wrong.

Oh! Right, and she was wearing a coat similar to the one youre wearing! Must be a popular brand. Her main characteristics are obvious, so it shouldnt be too hard to find her.

Right. Not hard at all.

I can guarantee that you wont be finding her at all! he yelled out inwardly.

However, if she were to stay here, then shed be staying overnight, which means

Shell definitely find out when night falls again.
