I want to just drift through life in Type-Moon.

Other flying creatures, such as great tits and woodpeckers, also flew over carrying various flowers and seeds, then carefully placed them on the ground. Eventually, even flying squirrels flew over carrying chestnuts, and these flying squirrels eventually rode back to the shore on the backs of swans.

"What an impressive welcome party! I don't know why you did this, but please allow me to say thank you."

Even though she didn't know what was going on, she could still feel the kindness of all the animals towards her, so she felt it was necessary to express her gratitude.

As she spoke, she shook the lily of the valley in her hand, and the water droplets on it scattered and formed a beautiful rainbow. This was a little magic trick she had learned.

As if Olga Marie knew what was going on, all the animals simultaneously let out joyful cries, their sounds rising and falling in perfect harmony, creating a beautiful melody.

“This is a wonderful place,” Olga Marie smiled involuntarily as she looked around at the scenery and the large group of new neighbors. “It seems like settling down here would be quite nice.”

She picked up an apple from the pile of gifts and washed it in the clear lake water. She took off her shoes and sat in front of the house, which had been turned into an island in the lake, and dipped her feet in the water.

Some fish playfully frolicked around her feet, while others leaped out of the lake to show her their efforts. The swans, meanwhile, did not hunt but swam leisurely in the lake, displaying their most elegant postures before her eyes.

Birds danced in the air, brown bears fought and frolicked on the shore, and rabbits, fallow deer, and wolves watched. At this moment, the food chain completely ceased to exist.

Taking a bite of the apple, the refreshing and sweet natural taste lifted her spirits.

Finally, the animals on the shore seemed to have completed their mission. Some sat on the shore eating like her, while others returned to their own territories in twos and threes. The forest quieted down, leaving only the sound of the wind blowing and the rustling of leaves.

Olga Marie savored the scene with a smile, feeling completely satisfied, both physically and mentally. Although there were still many things to worry about, Gaia was in charge of making arrangements, so she decided to put those issues aside for now and immerse herself in this beautiful moment to enjoy it.

Chapter 194 Cohabitation (Part Two)

More than a year has passed in the blink of an eye, and Olga Marie has adapted to life here.

There's no need to worry about food; the forest animals bring her fruits, mushrooms, and nuts every day. Although there's no meat, the wild game provided by nature is enough to sustain Olga Marie's survival.

Later, she figured out why the animals would spontaneously gather food for her. The reason was actually quite simple: it was because she was the Star Priestess.

The house she is in now is actually a manifestation of the planetary will (an imagined manifestation), a sacred place for all life on Earth, filled with the aura of the mother planet (Earth). It is because the animals sense this aura that they offer their tributes here.

Olga Marie also tried going without food for two days and found that she did not feel hungry, which also shows that this body does not actually need to eat.

She had tried to leave the house, but found it impossible to leave this place on the island in the lake, because although the house appeared to be in the real world, it was still in the mirror door space.

Small animals outside can bring things into this misplaced world, but the people in this misplaced world cannot get out.

The house is made entirely of logs, but anyone with a little design knowledge can see how strange it is because there are no gaps between the logs. The whole house is seamless and cannot be made by human hands.

Life here was unusually monotonous. Most of the time she would sit alone on the sofa in a daze, or go outside to watch the animals play. Other than that, she would come to Le Zhengling's room, stand by the bed, and look at him with complicated eyes.

Gaia's final order to her was to wait for Yue Zhengling to wake up, but she didn't mention when she would wake up or what she should do after waking up. Moreover, Olga Marie vaguely sensed that Gaia seemed to be avoiding something when she contacted her.

Later, she spent more and more time in the room, and watching Yue Zhengling struggle in his coma every day became an indispensable part of her life.

Starting in the second year, Yue Zhengling's sleep became more restful, and she added many things to the room.

There are comfortable chairs to sit on, carefully cultivated daffodils, various small stones brought by animals, and even rare amber.

Now, her favorite thing to do is stay in this room, writing down the magic knowledge she remembers while waiting for Yue Zhengling to wake up.

She had thought that this kind of life could continue indefinitely, because she had found eternal peace of mind in it.

This is the place closest to Gaia's (Earth's) embrace, a safe and peaceful space. Although Gaia has given her a world, compared to the world that still requires her to worry about, this period of life has given her a different feeling.

In fact, she vaguely realized that when she looked at Yue Zhengling, her mindset unconsciously became less thoughtful. Moreover, this person had a special meaning to her, and under the embellishment of memories, the girl's feelings slowly occupied her entire heart.

Olga Marie felt like something was wrong with her. Her memories of being with this person weren't pleasant. In fact, during their first encounter before he fell into a coma, they had both been driven by impure motives. But now, she didn't care about those things anymore and just wanted to keep watching him as he slept.

But in the end, Yue Zhengling became her follower and even swapped her first experiences with her. Unbeknownst to her, this person's image had already entered her heart.

This made her unconsciously sigh that women's minds are really complicated.

However, one day in the following year, when she entered Yue Zhengling's room with freshly picked lilies of the valley from the animals, a dark figure was sitting by his bedside.

It was a woman about the same age as her, who appeared to be of East Asian descent. She had short black hair, a slender and delicate figure, and wore clothing very similar to that of a nun. Her features were exceptionally beautiful; she was definitely a natural beauty.

The oriental beauty sat in a chair, her gaze fixed intently on the sleeping Yue Zhengling. In that gaze, Olga Marie saw in the mirror the same look she had when she was thinking of Yue Zhengling.

"Who are you!" she shouted in surprise at the figure, but the other person seemed not to hear her and continued to look at Yue Zhengling quietly.

When she saw what happened next, her feelings were beyond surprise.

The young woman from the East stood up, and with a very natural movement, reached out and brushed the hair from Yue Zhengling's forehead. Then, with a serene smile on her face, she closed her eyes, leaned down, and kissed Yue Zhengling's forehead.

"What are you doing!" Olga Marie raised her voice slightly, her delicate hands clenching into fists, her eyes extremely fierce.

The lily of the valley in my hand was unconsciously twisted into tiny pieces by my hands, and the purple and green plant sap emitted a peculiar smell.

She rushed to the other woman, trying to push her away, but her outstretched hand passed right through her.

Completely unprepared for this situation, Olga Marie stumbled, her hands clasped against the wall, then she turned sharply, staring intently at the other person—

The Eastern woman still didn't look at him, as if she hadn't noticed him at all.

Olga Marie, her face grim, reached out and tried again, but just like before, she couldn't touch him at all. Then she turned her attention to Yue Zhengling, reached out and pulled him away with force, but she was able to pull him away successfully.

What happened next puzzled her greatly. In the spot where Yue Zhengling had been lying, there was still another Yue Zhengling. Olga Marie thought for two seconds, then carefully pressed the Yue Zhengling she was holding down under her, and then reached out to touch the other Yue Zhengling.

Just as she expected, her hand couldn't touch the other person at all; it was just an illusion.

After calming down and observing for a while, she realized that the other person's Yue Zhengling was a little different from her own.

Her own hair had gradually turned silver-white, while the phantom's hair was pure black. In terms of length, the phantom's hair was shorter than her own.

Upon realizing this, Olga Marie's eyes became strange.

This space is impossible for humans to invade, but as a place specially prepared by the planet's will, it can be said to be quite special.

If she wasn't mistaken, what was happening before her eyes was a scene from another world.

Chapter 195 Cohabitation (Part 3)

Although Olga Marie didn't know exactly what had happened, her female intuition told her one thing: the woman in the phantom was her greatest enemy.

Suddenly, Phantom made her next move. She raised her head and looked ahead. The warmth that had appeared in her eyes when she looked at the other Yue Zhengling vanished quickly, replaced by indifference.

She was seen opening and closing her mouth as if saying something, but Olga Marie couldn't hear a sound at all. She knew that the other person wasn't talking to her because the other person's gaze wasn't on her.

Then, Olga Marie saw the back of a long-haired woman walk to another Yue Zhengling. The black-haired woman raised her head, met the other woman's gaze indifferently, and then looked away.

However, just as Olga Marie was about to see who the newly appeared figure was, the phantom vanished.

At this moment, the setting sun completely disappeared.

Olga Marie squinted, adjusting to the changing light and darkness, and finally silently placed Yue Zhengling back in its original position, beginning to ponder the meaning of the illusion that had just appeared.

She had reason to believe that Gaia was behind it. Although she didn't understand why she was shown these things, she couldn't deny that she felt very uncomfortable after seeing them.

Disturbed, she stood up, closed the French windows, drew the curtains, and then stood by the bed, quietly watching Yue Zhengling in the completely dark room.

"Who are you?"

She parted her lips slightly and asked a question that could not possibly be answered.

Olga Marie wasn't initially curious about Le Zhengling's background, as these things were meaningless to her. Although his appearance made her feel uneasy, it ultimately gave her another sense of security.

Gaia's request for Yue Zhengling to wake up was to wait for her to wake up. This period of time without having to think about problems was a kind of compensation. Now, more than a year has passed, and this compensation seems to have ended. Change has begun.

Sure enough, at the same time on the second day, Olga Marie, who had been in the room all day, saw the same phantom.

Yesterday, the Eastern woman appeared on the opposite side, and a misaligned overlap appeared on Yue Zhengling's body lying on the bed, with white and black hair intertwined to create a harmonious charm.

This time, the Eastern woman did not do anything strange; she simply held a beautifully bound copy of the original German poetic drama "Nathan the Wise" and read it.

Occasionally, she would look up at the sleeping Yue Zhengling, and the reassuring expression on his face made Olga Marie increasingly irritated.

She understood that the other woman, like herself, was drawn to the sleeping Yue Zhengling, and that looking at him in his sleep, she too would show a relieved expression, just like this woman.

This expression was unconsciously produced after being influenced by Yue Zhengling's sleeping face; Olga Marie even knew exactly what the other person was thinking.

This Eastern woman must feel the same way I do, that it's enough to just stay by the side of the sleeping Yue Zhengling, and deep down she probably hopes he will never wake up.

This feeling in the young girl is not love, but a subtle sense of dependence, much like a child's dependence on their parents for security.

Yes, just like in the original Grimm's Fairy Tales, the prince who fell in love with Snow White at first sight was actually in love with the motionless Snow White, because the prince was a necrophiliac.

Magicians' values ​​differ from those of normal people. Love is often just a substitute for other emotions. What is the truth? Without calm self-analysis, one often won't find the real answer.

Looking coldly at the Eastern woman opposite her, Olga Marie's previous sense of urgency had completely disappeared. After all, the other party couldn't see her, and getting angry here would be pointless. It would be better to try to find a way to block out these illusions.

Over the next three days, she tried moving the bed in the room, putting Yue Zhengling in another room, and even stuffing him into the closet.

As a result, those phantoms would still appear near Yue Zhengling at the same time every day. In the end, she could only move Yue Zhengling back to her original place, but she would never appear in the room at dusk every day, so as to avoid seeing her.

Olga Marie thought this would give her a sense of security, but every evening she became more and more agitated because she was very concerned about what might happen in the room, and even imagined whether the woman would do something outrageous to Yue Zhengling.

Curiosity, jealousy, unease, and even anger ultimately forced her to give up.

That day, at dusk, she pushed open Yue Zhengling's door. However, this time, when the phantom appeared, the Eastern woman who had been bothering her did not show up.

However, this did not mean there was nothing going on, because another woman whom he had never seen before was lying casually on Yue Zhengling's pillow, hugging Yue Zhengling with a satisfied look on her face.

Seeing this, Olga Marie's rationality snapped again. Although she knew that the person the other person was holding was not her own Yue Zhengling, she immediately ran over, reached out and pulled Yue Zhengling into her arms, hugging him tightly.

Feeling the real presence of the person in her arms, she almost lost her temper but managed to calm down with great difficulty. "It's okay, you're still here, you still belong to me."

She stared at the phantom with murderous intent, muttering to herself. Finally, she resisted the urge to unleash magic on the phantom on the bed and began to properly examine the newly appeared woman.

Her chestnut-brown long hair, beautiful face, and vibrant expression were the complete opposite of the black-haired girl.

Olga Marie recognized the hair color; it was the same hair color she saw at the end of the scene where the black-haired woman was talking to someone.

The more she looked at the girl, the more familiar she felt she was, but despite feeling she looked familiar, she couldn't remember who she was.

If I had met this person before, I wouldn't have forgotten them, because they have a very distinctive temperament that is hard to describe in words. If I had to put it into words, they would be the protagonist.

Indeed, this girl is like the center of attention on a stage, drawing everyone's gaze.

Olga Marie discovered that the new girl was indeed sleeping while holding Le Zhengling, and this intimacy that completely disregarded gender was completely different from that of the previous girls.

If the previous black-haired girl still regarded Yue Zhengling as a member of the opposite sex, this girl regards Yue Zhengling as a member of the same sex, because Olga Marie can see what true intimacy is from her overly natural behavior.

That's a feeling that only exists between family members.

Chapter 196 Cohabitation (Part 4)

The phantom disappeared in the last rays of twilight, and the scene was just the chestnut-haired girl sleeping. But this harmonious scene became a thorn in her heart.

Unlike the feeling of encountering a natural enemy when seeing the black-haired girl, he felt a strong sense of powerlessness from the moment he first saw this new girl.

She couldn't win! There was no way she could win! Olga Marie didn't understand why she felt this way, but when she saw this girl, she knew that she would definitely lose if she faced her.

Whether in terms of ability, status, or even emotions, they lost miserably.

She didn't come to her senses until the phantom disappeared.

For a long time afterward, no new characters appeared in the illusion. It was always the two girls who took turns appearing. The black-haired girl appeared more often than the chestnut-haired girl. However, unlike the overly intimate behavior of the chestnut-haired girl, the black-haired girl spent most of her time reading books, and occasionally she would stare blankly at Yue Zhengling, just like herself.

From the appearance to the disappearance of the phantom, Olga Marie also discovered a certain pattern: it only appeared between dusk and full sunset. The phantom Yue Zhengling, like her own Yue Zhengling, seemed to be in a deep sleep, showing no signs of waking up.

In the second week, a new character finally appeared: a sophisticated older sister with long black hair and casual clothes.

The older woman, who looked a few years older than him, was a magician. When she appeared, she was sitting with her legs crossed, one hand supporting her chin, looking at Yue Zhengling's sleeping face with a half-smile.

The reason they knew she was a magician was because at that time, Yue Zhengling on the other side had her shirt removed and a magic meter placed on her heart.

That's a meter used to record magical fluctuations, and only magicians can use such a meter.

Olga Marie frowned upon receiving the new information. She also felt a sense of familiarity with the woman's appearance, though not as strongly as with the chestnut-haired woman, but she believed she had seen her before.

Just as she was racking her brains trying to figure out who this person was, the older sister put away her magic trick and then helped Yue Zhengling up to wipe his body.

After wiping her entire body, she began to massage Yue Zhengling's muscles, using a technique that was likely a rehabilitation massage to prevent muscle atrophy.

Olga Marie was stunned for a moment when she saw this. She had never cleaned Le Zhengling's body before, nor had she massaged Le Zhengling like the other person had.

Olga Marie only realized that it was necessary to do this when someone suddenly did it in front of her.

Thinking of this, she unconsciously widened her eyes and carefully observed the older woman's technique, but as she watched, she felt that something was wrong.

The other party was not performing a simple rehabilitation massage, but rather using magic to stimulate Le Zhengling's vitality. Such profound techniques cannot be learned simply by watching; they require a deep understanding of the human body, specifically muscles, bones, nerves, and internal organs.

Olga Marie watched this micro-manipulation and then looked at the other person's age. Although she was also a top student in the magic world, she was ashamed of herself for the other person's magic skills.

This technique is extremely strenuous, as evidenced by the beads of sweat on this woman's forehead. Moreover, given that she was dressed in winter clothes, one can only imagine how difficult it must have been.

The fingers that danced on Yue Zhengling's body were as rhythmic as a pianist pressing the black and white keys, first his limbs, then his body, and finally his head. The light and heavy touches made Olga Marie a little mesmerized.

But this intoxication only lasted a short time. When the other party pulled down Yue Zhengling's pants, Olga Marie immediately exploded like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.
