Reincarnated as incubus: I didn't mean to seduce you!

Chapter 1060 285: The Senior's Second Confession and the Night of Dancing, the Whereabouts of Ophie's Corpse (10K)_3

A group of people are dancing to the music on the dance floor, and Lily's companions are rushing back and forth, occasionally coming to her to complain, hoping she'll help solve certain problems.

This can't be helped, since Kael isn't present, they have to turn to Lily for handling many impromptu issues, hoping their Senior Sister Lily can help negotiate a resolution.

It's not that no one thought about seeking out Senior Kael.

However, now that Senior Kael has become the Helois Monarch, even within the Mage Academy which was Kael's base, many juniors and seniors who got along well with Kael in the past have become noticeably more reserved in the presence of Kael's monarch title.

The tangible change in status makes them feel a bit uneasy about talking with Kael.

Kael can't do anything about this; people must grow up eventually.

Not long after, she suddenly heard someone call out to her from behind, "Senior Sister Lily."

Generally speaking, there was only one person who would speak to her in such an unembellished tone.

Moreover, when that familiar voice sounded, she already had an answer in her heart, stopping to look back, and Kael was standing right there.

"Senior Sister Lily, you've worked hard for today's dance party. How do you feel? How about I handle the remaining tasks, and you enjoy the rare dance party?"

Kael said this.

Of course, he knew that given Lily's character, not only would she not enjoy herself upon hearing such words, but she'd instead stay glued by his side like wax.

This was a little trick he used in dealing with Lily.

After all, Lily still carried out her special mission.

"I'm... I'm actually fine, most of the things that need to be done are pretty much completed, and I'm not that tired either...

What about you, Kael? Wanna take a break in the back together?"

Looking at Lily's hesitant yet slightly awakened expression, Kael suddenly felt a tinge of guilt.

The thoughts are there.

But it's not possible now; there are still more important tasks to complete.

Ironically, some of the things Kael needed to do couldn't proceed without Lily's help, or at least for the moment, only Lily could barely meet his requirements.

"Let's stay here, but let's not handle the dance party-related matters next. It's good for the juniors to get familiar with dealing with such troublesome jobs occasionally, isn't it?"

Kael's eyes had a slight curve, and Lily snorted softly, nodded, and said, "Then let them handle the food matters for the dance party themselves."

Kael nodded and said, "There's no need to prepare everything perfectly; after all, this is just a farewell event between students and teachers, different from those official dance parties. Having overly meticulous preparation is not needed at all."

Upon hearing Kael's words, Lily couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Clearly you're the one who prepares the most meticulously, yet you're the one saying these things now."

Kael shook his head and said, "That's different. I only put plenty of effort into areas that truly need detail. For those not-so-important minor details, doing so would just distract my focus."

"Then what about me?" Lily suddenly asked, "To Kael, am I someone worth putting effort into?"

Kael paused for a moment, looked at Lily with surprise, and replied with a smile, "That depends on how you think about it."

Upon hearing Kael's words, Lily slightly restrained her smile and spoke seriously, "Hmm... let's say, Kael, you are truly sly."

"Would an Incubus not be sly?" At this point, Kael was not ashamed.

Lily clearly seemed troubled, sitting on the chair, resting her chin on her hands, saying:

"Kael, for you, could I possibly be part of your future? Sometimes these thoughts involuntarily creep into my mind, after all, we don't have a real relationship.

Yet some people are just very cunning. Every time after being disappointed, they offer a bit of hope, and I'm so helplessly ineffective that despite preparing to turn and leave, I end up staying in place.

Actually, I realized early on, it's a surplus and useless feeling, but every time I look back, my time seems to forever be frozen on that night more than four years ago."

Lily said softly, and her smile, which seldom vanished and was heart-warming, at this moment didn't disappear; instead, it became even brighter.

This kind of smile made her seem slightly painful, yet the mixed thoughts in his mind—plans, exploits, genuine emotions—intertwined with each other. This subtle feeling eventually led to him standing in front of Lily, speaking in a very gentle tone:

"How should I say... claiming there isn't a bit of thought would be false, I am not the type to sever emotions completely, but many times, we are like a reed in the river of time, easily engulfed by waves unknowingly."

As Kael took steps forward, slightly approaching Lily's side, the shadow cast by the lighting behind fell upon her upturned face. At this moment, Kael leaned down, speaking softly by her ear:
