Is It Weird For A Guy To Apply To A Witch School Chapter 24

[ … words ]

After rummaging for a while, Bai Yu actually found a hairdryer, but it was in her suitcase.

In other words, it was her own stuff.

She mentioned she could use spells, so she didn’t need it for now and left it for me.

Looking at her expression, I couldn’t bring myself to refuse.

I’d never really used a hairdryer before.

The ones used at the barber didn’t count.

As a guy, I’d just let my hair air-dry after washing it. Unless I was in a rush to go out, who’d bother with a hairdryer?

At least I never did, and my family never got one for me.

But Bai Yu explained a lot of precautions, like not drying my hair too much or it’d damage the quality.

Damaged hair quality… I’d have to be careful.

I didn’t want to end up with dry, split, messy hair.

“It’s getting late, Xiao Han. You’d usually be asleep by now, right? Look at you, yawning nonstop,” Bai Yu said with a smile, arranging the bedding on the bed.

“Yeah, I’m super sleepy yawn”

I let out a big yawn to show my state, also hinting to myself that if I fell asleep quickly, having Bai Yu next to me might not be a big deal.

“Then let’s sleep.”

Bai Yu was straightforward, though she didn’t seem sleepy herself.

Having been at Witch Academy for a long time, witchification had greatly affected her.

While she hadn’t reached full supernatural status, her elevated life essence meant she needed very little sleep.

That explained why Witch Academy’s nightlife was so lively—it had a foundation.

Those who couldn’t sleep naturally sought out exciting things to do.

Lying in bed, I felt overwhelmingly tired, which suited me just fine.

I’d been worried about Bai Yu sleeping next to me affecting me, but now I didn’t have the energy to care.

“Xiao Han, your first day at Witch Academy—how did it feel?”

Bai Yu’s voice came softly, and the bedroom’s ceiling light dimmed, replaced by the glow of ambient light strips, adding a cozy atmosphere to the dark room.

But I wasn’t in the mood to appreciate it.

“It felt… really… nice…” I replied haltingly, Bai Yu’s voice growing hazy in my ears.

“What about those senior sisters? I saw quite a few of them taking advantage of you on that street.”

“Taking advantage? Really? The fried tofu was pretty good…”

“Alright… you’re about to fall asleep. Good night.”

Bai Yu turned to look at the figure beside her.

She could tell I was truly exhausted, so she set aside her plan to keep chatting.

“Good night”

With my last shred of consciousness, I caught her goodnight wish and replied before completely succumbing to exhaustion, my breathing evening out.

“Such good sleep quality…”

Bai Yu said with a hint of envy, but there was no response—just her own muttering.

“Xiao Han, those senior sisters at the academy are pretty thirsty, especially for freshmen. They don’t hold back…”

“But they’re especially fond of little junior brothers turned little junior sisters. You’ve got to protect yourself…”

As she spoke, Bai Yu’s hand unconsciously rested on my waist.

Even though I was facing away from her, she didn’t seem to mind.

“But me, your Bai Yu? I’m a senior sister too. Deep down, I’m not much different from them…”

“How could I withstand such a test?”

Bai Yu’s hand slid around my waist, her fingers gently pressing against my side, as if savoring the soft sensation.

Even through the sleep robe.

Not slipping her hand inside seemed to be her final restraint.

Time passed slowly.

The bedroom was quiet, as if both of us were asleep.

But soon, a rustling sound broke the silence, and Bai Yu sat up abruptly.

She was wide awake, almost wanting to slap herself to stay rational.

She instinctively grabbed her phone to check the time.

It hadn’t been long—just early morning—but she hadn’t slept at all.

Being this awake was pure torment.

She had to leave.

She really had to leave, or she was afraid she wouldn’t be able to resist doing something to the girl in bed.

If things went that far, how could she face her afterward?

Bai Yu quietly fixed the blankets and opened the door.

She was going back to her own dorm, letting the cold high-altitude air clear her head.

Leaving without saying goodbye felt a bit wrong, but she couldn’t wake Xiao Han to tell her she was leaving, could she?

That’d make her seem even more unhinged.

At that moment, she envied those carefree preparatory witches.

If she could let go of her useless principles and restraint, Xiao Han might already be “hers” by now.

But sadly, she wasn’t that kind of witch.

At the start, she was a traditional girl—a straight one—until she was roped into Witch Academy.

Yes, Bai Yu had been tricked into coming here, so she resented Witch Academy.

Yet, witchification gave her a sense of belonging to the witch race, a contradiction she could never resolve.

No matter what, Bai Yu couldn’t resist the subtle changes and ongoing witchification, compounded by her experiences.

Countless regrets and reluctance could only turn into sighs.

How many freshmen would fall into the hands of those senior sisters tonight?

Witches were truly a sinful race.

But before leaving, Bai Yu was still a bit worried.

In the end, she took out her phone and typed out a long list of precautions, sending them one by one to Xiao Han’s phone.

She’d been the one to suggest sharing a bed, and now she was the one sneaking away.

She didn’t know how she’d explain this to Xiao Han later.

Though she included plenty of apologies at the start of the messages, it wasn’t like she’d never see Xiao Han again.

If Xiao Han didn’t make a fuss about this, how awkward would it be for her?

Even though she was confident Xiao Han wouldn’t put her in such a spot, she still needed to express her stance.

There were so many things to note.

Bai Yu flew slowly, and even by the time she reached her dorm, she hadn’t finished thinking it through.

She felt like there were still things she hadn’t explained clearly but couldn’t pinpoint them.

Oh well, these basics should be enough for now.

She was only offering suggestions, not planning Xiao Han’s entire life.

Just as she stopped typing and prepared to open her dorm door, her phone pinged with a notification.

It was a message.

Yang Yuehan: Thanks, Bai Yu.

You should sleep early too.
