Illimitable Until Death

1084: Sylvia cooked dinner at Fang Li’s place as if it were perfectly natural.

They ate together, and she even unpacked her suitcase, arranging her belongings in every corner of the room with the familiarity of someone in their own home.

In truth, this place was no different from Sylvia’s own home.

Whenever she was in Academy City, Sylvia always stayed in Fang Li’s dorm room, never returning to her own.

As a result, her dorm room had been deregistered ever since she became famous.

Officially, she claimed it was to avoid causing a commotion and that she would find alternative accommodation.

In reality, the world’s first Diva was living in a male dorm at A Certain High School, sharing a room with a student known as the “Repeat Senpai.” If this were to leak, it would undoubtedly become a global scandal, perhaps even a full-blown scandal.

Sylvia had been a star for years, her disguise skills unmatched by anyone.

If not for Index’s Perfect Memory, no one would have recognized her.

Therefore, the students residing in this male dormitory had no idea that the Goddess of their dreams, the perfect object of their fantasies, the world-famous Diva, was currently lying in a male student’s arms.

This wasn’t just a figure of speech; it was literally true.

“Hmm?” After turning off the lights and settling into bed, Fang Li hadn’t even drifted off when rustling sounds began to fill the room.

A soft, delicate body burrowed into his chest.

Initially, Fang Li thought it was just Index sleepwalking again.

The gluttonous nun had a habit of crawling into Fang Li’s bed whenever she fell asleep, a nightly occurrence.

But the familiar fragrance that wafted into his nostrils told Fang Li otherwise.

The newcomer wasn’t Index.

“Sylvie?” Fang Li spoke tentatively.

“Shh…” The girl who had burrowed into Fang Li’s bed and snuggled in his arms spoke softly.

“Be quiet. Don’t wake the child…” Hearing this, Fang Li turned his head toward the bed.

“Hū…hū…” In the rhythmic sound of her breathing, Index lay sound asleep, her expression utterly blissful.

But the girl who should have been sleeping beside Index was nowhere to be seen.

There was no need to wonder where she had gone.

“What happened?” Fang Li held the girl in his arms, a mixture of surprise and amusement in his voice.

“Could it be you were lonely after being apart for so long?” If you counted it up, Fang Li and Sylvia had been separated for nearly half a year.

Even though they spoke on the phone every day and even video-chatted, loneliness still crept in at times.

“Because I’m not like you,” Sylvia said, her head emerging from the covers.

Her long, luxurious purple hair, like strands of fine silk, cascaded down and brushed against Fang Li’s body.

“I’ve been working outside all this time, while you’ve been enjoying a carefree campus life in Academy City. It’s so unfair.” Though she said this, Sylvia’s tone suggested she didn’t take it seriously.

She knew that beneath Fang Li’s seemingly peaceful exterior, a storm was always brewing.

In the past year alone, he had been working tirelessly both openly and in secret.

For example, he had established Scorpius to gather intelligence.

He had also taken various measures to conceal his identity.

After gathering enough information, he had to raid the headquarters of various Great Magic factions and seize their Original Grimoires.

Even within Academy City, he had to navigate a complex web of relationships with all sorts of individuals.

Especially after his identity was exposed, the several confrontations with Aleister, even if not overt conflicts, were fraught with unimaginable danger.

Thus, while Fang Li lived a seemingly ordinary campus life, his situation was far more perilous than Sylvia’s Quest.

“But now that Main Quest 1 and Main Quest 2 are complete, and we’ve already accumulated nearly half the Exchange Points required for Main Quest 3,” Sylvia tilted her head and said, “shouldn’t things get a lot easier from here on out?” “Not necessarily,” Fang Li shook his head, pinching Sylvia’s small nose.

“In fact, your return to Academy City might actually complicate things.” This Academy City was far from as peaceful as it appeared.

To say nothing of Aleister, the black hand behind the scenes, who had orchestrated countless schemes and manipulated countless lives like puppets on strings.

Moreover, since its ultimate goal is to eliminate all Magic phenomena worldwide, this Science Side stronghold is constantly targeted by various factions from the Magic Side.

Major incidents occur in this city almost daily, too numerous to count.

“Perhaps more events happen here than in War-Academy City, which operates under the control of the Integrated Enterprise Foundation,” Fang Li asked his lover, who was nestled in his arms.

“What are your plans for the future?” “I don’t have any plans,” Sylvia replied matter-of-factly.

“The Main Quest is almost complete. Once we earn another 30,000 Exchange Points, all our Quests will be finished. After that, I don’t intend to leave Academy City. I’ll stay here permanently.” If Sylvia’s agency found out about this decision, they’d probably be in tears.

“But it seems they’ve prepared for it,” Sylvia said with a hint of helplessness.

“When I signed with the company, the contract was only for a year. Now that it’s almost expired, the whole world knows, right?” Indeed, Sylvia hadn’t kept this a secret.

She’d publicly announced it to the outside world.

As a result, major entertainment companies had been courting Sylvia for ages, hoping to poach her.

Even her current agency had tried every trick in the book to renew her contract, but to no avail.

“This is much easier than working under the Integrated Enterprise Foundation,” Sylvia said with a cheerful laugh.

“Once the contract expires, I could retire completely, and no one could say a thing.” “Yeah, right,” Fang Li said, a mixture of amusement and exasperation in his voice.

“Do you really think anyone would pass up a sure thing like you, who could become the world’s number one idol in just a year?

If you actually did that, not only would entertainment companies go ballistic, but billions of fans worldwide would riot!” “Maybe?” Sylvia said, completely unfazed.

“But I’m under no obligation to work for anyone, you know?” As she spoke, Sylvia raised a finger and pressed it against Fang Li’s lips.

Her purple eyes, shining like radiant gems, locked onto his as she smiled and said, “Except for you…” Those words sent a sudden warmth surging through Fang Li’s heart.

He flipped over and pinned Diva beneath him.

“Wait…

Index is right there…!” “Doesn’t matter…” “Mmmph…!” That night, the deliberately suppressed sounds of panting echoed through the room, making the air itself feel feverish.

“Huu… huu…” Bathed in the scorching air, Index merely rolled over in her sleep, still soundly asleep.
