Miss Witch Doesn't Want to be a Diva-Chapter 405 - 143 Pre-match Preparation
June’s rainy season had arrived again. Sitting inside the heavy gray steel flying machine, Tilan gazed through the porthole, overlooking the world outside.
A gloomy curtain of rain enshrouded the world, droplets streaking across the wing and sliding over the porthole glass before vanishing, leaving behind continually changing water trails.
Leaning back in her seat, Tilan’s eyes half-closed and then opened again, her mind revisiting the days she had spent at Yuanting, and then recalling the rainy season a year earlier. It too was a murky afternoon, she stood in the admissions hall, crowded with countless students, like a small boat adrift in fog and hesitation, trying to grasp a possible glimmer of hope.
Time flies, it had already been a year.
Sifting through the tumultuous experiences of the year in her mind, her thoughts finally settled on the winter festival night.
Her childhood visits to Saint Ingo Academy with her parents had become a hazy memory, just a vague recollection of that night’s exuberant venue, while her sister, Temisia, soared in the night sky, dazzling like a shining star, captivating to all who saw her.
The shine and height so far beyond her own filled her with envy, but also a sense of loss; she probably could never catch up to her sister’s heights and would have to stay curled in a corner, silently watching.
It was also from that night that she had become much more quiet.
Under normal circumstances, she should have been happy and proud of her sister’s accomplishments, but she didn’t feel that way. She probably realized early on that she was herself, and Temisia was Temisia; she never thought about relying on Temisia. Even a resplendent Temisia couldn’t change the fact that she was timid and weak.
It was strange, the girl closed her eyes and slowly remembered, wondering when exactly the relationship between the sisters had changed to this state.
It seemed to be in middle school. After Temisia entered middle school and began studying the Transcendent Sequence, she was still in elementary school, so they attended different schools, and gradually grew apart. Also, due to the Talent reasons, Temisia became more and more confident, powerful, and less and less approving of the submissive Hexia. Probably, there was a sense of frustration in her, as Temisia saw Hexia’s hesitations and fears as unnecessary self-sabotage, a cause for trouble.
As such, the two people, with differing characters and values, drifted apart, and their emotions towards each other faded. Explore more at novelbuddy
It wasn’t that Temisia was unkind to her, but in Temisia’s world, Hexia only occupied a very small part. As the genius and top student of Saint Ingo, Temisia had seen a much broader and higher side of the world; she had greater ambitions and pursuits, aspirations that no ordinary family could support.
Everything from the past, whether schoolmates, family members, or all that was once important, quickly seemed trivial. From then on, she hardly discussed matters with her family because nothing they said could help with the situations she faced. In daily life, this reflected in her growing distance from them, only becoming talkative during major family holidays when she returned home.
The sister from that time must have felt very lonely, the thought faintly crossed the girl’s mind.
Why did Temisia rather choose to commit suicide than to merge with her own self? Where did she find out the truth, and why did she conceive such a dangerous idea? All these were unknown to Hexia, perhaps only by thoroughly defeating Saint Ingo and then accessing their internal archives and databases could the truth of that time be restored.
However, one thing was certain: Temisia must have decided and executed this plan on her own. If there had been assistance from other people or organizations, Hexia would not have faced the near-fatal peril a year ago.
In this regard, Temisia was indeed very audacious, not fearing that her sister might fail along the way, the young girl shook her head.
But considering Temisia’s confident and decisive nature, she probably thought such an accident was too unlikely to warrant consideration. After all, when she took her own life, both their father and mother were present, surely they would take care of Hexia as she grew up.
The world is unpredictable; no one expected that Temisia, the outstanding genius, would take her own life, and her mother, overwhelmed by grief, would fade away, leaving Hexia behind until she reached the age of 15, when her father also quietly departed.
Amidst these rising thoughts, the scenery outside the window also gradually changed. As the flying machine headed south, breaking through the thick clouds, it finally reached above ten thousand meters, with the azure sea emerging below.
Returning to Edith Academy this time marked the beginning of battle. At the end of the month, facing Swarm’s Reign Academy, she could now control the level at which she deployed her Talent Ability, ensuring it was only on par with Prin Coco, also known as ’Flame Sugar’, a Starshine Level Songstress.
If she emerged victorious this time, it would put a perfect end to her freshman year. She just wondered what Prin Coco would think upon seeing her.
She had only met her once, with a brief introduction by Botis and a quick chat, maybe Prin didn’t even know she had joined Edith Academy because, during the Dream of Glazed Glass event, she had only revealed her codename, ’Dantalion’.
Meeting this time would probably come as a big surprise to her; thinking of this, the girl also felt a hint of anticipation in her heart.
Fiery blue flames surged, causing booming noises as they traveled through the air, and as the flying machine gradually steadied within Edith Academy, those thick square nozzles finally extinguished.
