I'm an Undercover Witch, Not a Bed-Warming Witch!

Chapter 8

8. The Reputation of the Illusion Academy

The new student area was an extremely small asteroid. Travel between the new student area and the Witch Academy relied on a teleportation array. The location of this array was precisely that souvenir shop.

Returning to the shop, Meng Lian discovered that Tao Zhuo was still firing on all cylinders. She marveled at how energetic this little loli was, then bid farewell to Modu and left the shop.

"Hm?"

Just then, Gabriel walked into the shop. A flash of gold caught her eye. Gabriel looked back and happened to catch a glimpse of Meng Lian's retreating figure just before it disappeared.

Was it her?

What was she doing here?

"What's wrong?"

The elf girl beside Gabriel asked. Gabriel shook her head. "Nothing. I just saw a classmate from our class."

"Who? Do I know her?"

"She's called Meng Lian. She lives right next door to me. Well, she successfully transformed into a witch last night, so I remember her quite well."

"Her luck is that good? She succeeded in one try? Sigh, comparisons are odious."

The elf girl sounded surprised, then sighed in lamentation.

Gabriel did not respond. Her thin lips pressed together slightly as another possibility occurred to her.

Meng Lian had already transformed. There was no need for her to come here again. Connecting this to her empty pockets last night and her successful transformation in just one night, a hypothesis gradually formed in Gabriel's mind.

Could she be... the one with talent?

"Hey, hey, what are you thinking about?"

The elf girl waved her hand in front of Gabriel's dazed eyes. Gabriel came back to her senses but did not share her guess with the elf girl.

"Nothing... Phoeby, let's go in."

"Alright. I want to see what this test is that everyone's talking about!"

Phoeby energetically pulled Gabriel into the shop. Sure enough, the next moment, they were both sprayed head to toe by Tao Zhuo's verbal barrage.

……

"I wonder where they sell clothes?"

Meng Lian could not keep her upper half in that precarious state forever. But after searching everywhere, she discovered that nearly every shop in the new student area sold Witch Potions. None sold clothes.

When in doubt, ask a Senior Sister. Modu was free anyway. Meng Lian took out her phone and privately messaged Modu.

Lian (Big Stack Junior Sister): "Senior Sister, do you know where they sell clothes? I searched everywhere, but there don't seem to be any clothing stores in the new student area."

Modu: "There really aren't any clothing stores in the new student area. After all, that place is just for your entrance exam. Once you successfully enroll in the Witch Academy, you'll move over here. No one would open a shop there just to sell clothes. If you want to buy clothes, Junior Sister, just tell me your measurements and I'll help you buy some."

Measurements?

Meng Lian looked down at her chest and estimated. A C-cup? Hmm... why did it feel like a D might be possible too?

Meng Lian was not sure. When it came to women's measurements, she only knew what she had heard in passing. Determining exact numbers just by looking was beyond her abilities.

Lian (Big Stack Junior Sister): "Sorry, Senior Sister. My body is the result of transformation. I'm not really clear on my measurements. How about I measure myself tonight and then tell you?"

Modu: "No problem. I heard from Tao Zhuo that you were male before transforming. It's normal for you not to know about these things."

The Senior Sister really was understanding.

Just then, Modu sent Meng Lian a pile of files. They were all about common knowledge for girls.

But Meng Lian's face grew strange as she read. These files were too detailed. So detailed that they did not seem like something written by a girl.

Could Senior Sister Modu have also been male before transforming?

Meng Lian thought about it and accepted it. After all, countless boys transformed into witches at the Witch Academy. She herself had been male before. This was completely normal.

Lian (Big Stack Junior Sister): "Thank you, Senior Sister. You've been a huge help."

Modu: "No problem."

Seeing the sticker Meng Lian sent, Modu curled her lips slightly. In her heart, however, she felt a bit regretful.

She had not obtained Meng Lian's measurements. She was genuinely curious about the data on Meng Lian's chest. Such perfect and alluring breasts, honestly, it was her first time seeing them.

The Illusion Academy seemed to be entirely populated by members of the Small Thunder Temple. Even Modu herself was small enough to hold with one hand. As members of the Small Thunder Temple, they naturally longed for the Great Thunder Temple. So Meng Lian's chest had the people of the Illusion Academy distracted.

Zi Yan: "Did you get them? The measurements of my cute little apprentice?"

Modu: "You old pervert. You know she's your apprentice. What kind of mentor spends all day thinking about their apprentice's body? I despise you."

Zi Yan: "Please. I know you. You just want to cuddle her in bed at night. Neither of us has any room to laugh at the other."

Modu: "Sigh. The fish rots from the head down. Our Illusion Academy has no future."

Zi Yan: "Pthh. We can still scrape by for another year. No rush. If we really do shut down, I'll just support you all. You just need to warm my bed every day, and my little apprentice can give me a facial massage every day."

Modu: "..."

Sometimes Modu really wanted to stab this old pervert with a sword. The Illusion Academy's reputation in the Witch Academy was so terrible, and their mentor Zi Yan had to take half the blame for that.

As for the other half of the blame, Modu felt a bit guilty for some reason.

Was she also responsible for the other half?

Bai Wei: "Hello, is this Meng Lian?"

Meng Lian was still wandering around the new student area when her phone vibrated. To her surprise, her homeroom teacher Bai Wei had privately messaged her.

Lian: "Hello, Teacher. I'm Meng Lian."

Bai Wei: "Here's the situation. I heard you successfully transformed into a witch?"

The news traveled that fast?

Lian: "Yes. I got lucky last night. It happened in one go."

Bai Wei: "Don't be nervous, Meng Lian. Your Senior Sister Modu told me. She told me about your situation. She said you've already agreed to join the Illusion Academy, correct?"

So it was Senior Sister.

Meng Lian breathed a sigh of relief.

Lian: "Yes, I did agree to join the Illusion Academy."

In her office, Bai Wei saw Meng Lian's reply. Her expression became complicated.

Meng Lian had illusion talent. She was happy about that. But what Meng Lian did not know was that the reputation of the Illusion Academy was truly hard to describe.

Take that mentor Zi Yan. Clearly a great beauty and a powerful witch, but also a huge pervert and deviant.

Her favorite thing to do was use illusions to trap a pair of attractive young lovers. Then she would induce that couple to have intimate relations while she watched from the side and pleasured herself. The word pervert was not even enough to describe her.

She even named that illusion the Private Space, claiming it was designed to promote feelings between young couples. Although afterward, it really did turn out as she said, with the couple growing closer, was this something a teacher should be saying?

And her several apprentices were even worse than their teacher. Especially that Modu. On the surface, she appeared to be a cold, silent iceberg goddess. But Bai Wei had heard gossip about her more than once.

Things like using illusion magic to disguise herself as one half of a couple, then tying up the other partner and using illusion to hide her form. She would then take the face of the partner and sleep with the other person. The bound partner could only watch helplessly, unable to do anything but curse loudly. But because of the illusion, only Modu could hear. And Modu actually got more excited from hearing the curses, going harder and harder until the other person could not even stand up the next morning.

The most ridiculous part was that after the truth came out and the person learned that it was Modu they had been with, they did not get angry. Instead, they were delighted and wanted to kick aside their original partner to become Modu's girlfriend. Modu then lost interest and left the couple. The original partner saw their lover's true colors and actually thanked Modu afterward, also clamoring to become her girlfriend.

This incident had caused quite a stir at the time. When Bai Wei read about it, she clicked her tongue. Why did young people these days play so wildly?

But when she learned that Modu was from the Illusion Academy, she was no longer surprised at all.

See, that is what reputation means. This is reputation.

Sometimes Bai Wei wondered. Illusion was such a mysterious and useful art. How did it end up in the hands of these people, who only used it to do perverted things?

So when Modu told Bai Wei that Meng Lian wanted to join the Illusion Academy, Bai Wei felt like the sky had collapsed. She had only one thought.

Well, another pervert is about to be born.
