Chapter 19: Ansu, You Are Not Allowed to Fall in Love!
The school was quiet on the weekend as Ansu and Celia walked along the tree-lined path leading to the library.
With summer approaching, the trees were lush and leafy, and sunlight filtered through the gaps in the foliage, casting dappled shadows on the path.
Ansu couldn't help but glance at Celia beside him. A beam of light happened to strike her graceful profile. She squinted slightly, and the corners of her mouth curled upward, as if she were in a very good mood.
Ever since they had snuck into the school, she had been strolling leisurely with him, looking less like she had business to attend to and more like she was on vacation...
"Um... Lady Witch."
Ansu couldn't resist asking, "Is it really alright for you to just walk around our school so openly? I recall your name being quite prominent on the wanted lists..."
"Oh? That?" Celia spoke with a tone of indifference.
"It doesn't matter. Aside from the cult, no one knows what the Ash Witch actually looks like."
"After all, everyone who has seen me is already dead."
